Chapter 93: Betrayal

Diana yelled and Devian held her back. Seria clung to Devian's pants and Cephera heard herself gasp. "Kat?" She asked not really processing the strange turn of events.

"Poison." She said staring at the knife she had just pulled from Loki. "I've waited so long for this." She loving played with the knifes handle as if testing its weight. "Do you like it." She gestured to Thor. "He consumed the same potion I slipped you at the rave party all those years ago." Cephera's eyes widened remembering the ale she had gifted Thor with.

Cephera looked at Kat bewildered and confused. The friend she once knew and loved was replaced by this venomous looking women. "Why?" She asked feeling her face become wet with tears. She clutched her children near her afraid any sudden moves would set her off.

"You're such a little fool. Do you remember the day we first met." Cephera nodded. She would never forget that day. That was the day that had begun her new life. Without it she never would have met Loki. Kat sneered twirling the knife she had used to stab and poison Loki in her delicate fingers. "I was surprised seeing you walk into that throne room. At first I wanted to kill you right there. But then I set out a different task." Her smile widened. "It couldn't have gone so well. So trusting. So naive. I wanted to see for myself the power you held. I needed to know how you did it."

"Did what? Your speaking in riddles." Cephera felt frustrated. She could see Loki's eyes blinking hazily. She wondered if he could see and hear everything going on.

"I've decided it was blind luck!" Kat spat her eyes narrowed. She bent down to pull Loki's face up to peer toward her. "She's not such an innocent little thing you know." She told him and then let him go tossing him aside easily. The venom keeping him paralyzed.

"Kat..."

"Don't call me that!" Kat's shout echo'd off the vaulted ceilings. "My name is Katarina Fevour. And you killed my father." She paused and Cephera felt her eyes widen and her mouth drop open. Fear seized her immediately. "You remember my father Demos. I was a child when you killed him. When you stole his power from him and used it to drain and steal from him his last breath." She was slashing the knife in the air haphazardly.

Cephera would never forget him. She hadn't meant to kill him, she didn't know how to control it at the time. And in all fairness he was trying to kill her and her family and take over the entire galaxy.

"That was an accident." Cephera said her mouth feeling dry. She was aware of her children watching in the background. Seria was crying. Cephera remembered having this conversation with Kat before. What must have gone through her mind to hear about her fathers death through the mouth of his killer?

"An accident. I actually believe that. I'm disgusted that someone as useless with magic as you, was able to kill my father. He was a powerful man and you killed him without so much as blinking. When I was old enough I looked into his death. I wondered why my father never came home." Kat looked like she might cry. A childish look appearing on her face.

"I was only defending my family." Cephera wasn't sure why she was talking back. Kat was clearly not listening or for that matter caring for what she had to say.

"He had a family too." She froze and turned her blue eyes back to Cephera. "Do you know what I went through once he died. The things I was subjected to in order to keep myself alive. My mother was dead before my tenth birthday and I had to whore myself out just to keep myself fed. You know why I came here? I came here to learn and become the most powerful sorceress in the world, so that I could one day take my revenge on you. Nothing mattered more to me then finding and killing you! I had no idea you'd be here. And then I had to live everyday watching you make a fool of yourself in class and then you began fucking around with him behind my back. I can't tell you how angry I was to find out you had found love." Kat moved a few steps toward Cephera and stopped. "Ironically in the end it's your husband who trained me to kill you. I had high hopes for him. But he turned out to be a love sick fool. I was hoping he would help me find you and kill you but of course finding you turned out easy when you fell into my lap but his help became unattainable when you whore'd yourself out to him."

"I thought us friends." Cephera lamented feeling sad.

"Keep your friends close, your enemies closer. I allowed you to have your relationship, to bare your children."

"Bare them? You killed one or have you forgotten!" Cephera interjected a bubble of anger welling inside her.

"Oh yes. Alexis. Truthfully, at the time, I thought I was ready to end all this but you were pregnant and had all your magic so I decided to fix that problem. But of course afterward seeing you so unhappy, crying and in emotional turmoil, I simply couldn't kill you yet. I needed more ways to see that sadness. It felt good to be the one you turned to as a shoulder to cry on. To hear all your woes and knowing it was because of me was the most pleasurable part of it all. I allowed you to taste this happiness so it would be that much sweeter when you watch me take from you everything you love just as you did me." Kat smiled a maniacs smile. "Of course getting this far wasn't easy. Sometimes I couldn't help my anger. You remember when Devian almost drowned. That was me. Lucky for him I recovered from my momentarily rash actions and I pulled him from the water before his life was gone and left him for you to find."

Kat seemed pleased with herself as Cephera's face took on one of horror. "Shiaji was my biggest problem. That damn cat always following you around. I was afraid he would sense my evil intentions. He made me nervous. But then Loki taught me how to deplete others magic and I drained Shiaji's core. But he was strong. I couldn't finish him. He even managed to claw me a little." Kat narrowed her eyes and she pointed to her side. "But it was worth it when I saw you crying for him. To see you in emotional pain again. 'Like losing your mother all over again' you had said." Kat licked her lips.

"You don't have to do this." Cephera said trying to think of a way out of it. Thor was unconscious, Loki was poisoned and useless at Kat's feet. She was afraid to let her children fight her and Cephera herself couldn't possibly use her magic to any large degree without passing out. Everyone else in the palace were asleep and she wasn't sure where the guards were. Kat must have noticed Cephera thinking because she laughed.

"Don't worry we won't be interrupted. I took care of the guards. They should have fallen asleep like Thor not too long ago." She grinned. "I've planned this out nicely I think. But I'm sick of talking. I won't kill you Cephera. Not yet. But you will get to watch your children die. Just like in your dreams." Kat laughed and moved forward quickly.

Seria cried out and Cephera turned, taking Seria in her arms and they vanished.

Cephera felt everything around them spinning. Wild lights of many colours passing them by. By the end of the jump she was dazed and confused but clutched her daughter tightly so as not to lose her.

Seria had taken them to another reality. Cephera feared for her family still left behind and also for herself. Where would they turn up. When everything stopped spinning she found herself staring at some very confused faces sitting round a table. Both her and Seria were on top of it.

I want to give a special shout out to Poodle warriors who all the way back in Chapter 23 said this "I could be wrong but I don't have a good feeling about Kat? I wonder if she is all that she seems? Or just maybe a very self absorbed friend? Hmmm" in a review. I thought for sure you knew and I was trying my best to keep it a secret until now. Weather you meant to come that close to the truth matters not I salute you for picking up the vibe! Also to anyone else who might have but just didn't mention it.
