Magnus and Jeffery go back inside.
"Hi Magnus!"
Milo rushes over to him and throwing his arms around him hugging him tightly.
Magnus smiles and ruffles his hair.
"Can we go home? I want to go home."
Magnus shakes his head.
"No, I would like you and your mom to stay for a while. It won't be long, I like the company."
Milo smiles and rushes off into the bedroom.
Magnus sits down on the stool looking at Cristy.
"Can I ask you something Magnus?"
He nods. "Sure."
"You know more than what you're telling me don't you?"
Jeffery goes to his side and leans against the counter.
"Yes I do, but as of right now I can't really tell you."
She becomes angry.
"If you know something about what is going on and why those men were after me then you should tell me!"
Magnus rubs his eyes and thinks about it.
"I can't tell you, but I know some people who could help you. Go get Milo and I'll take you to them."
She nods and goes into the bedroom.
"Why can't you just tell her everything? Then she and that brat can just leave."
Magnus looks up at Jeffery giving him a look.
"I don't know who put the wall up or gave her the new identity, if I try to take it down, mess with it or even tell her everything I could kill her. Also don't call my
son a brat, I know you are pissed off about all this going on but when this is all over you will have to deal with the fact that I have a son and no matter what
Aethelfled will always be part of my life."
Magnus gets up and walks away leaving Jeffery fuming with rage.
"Why are we in a cometary at looking at a mausoleum?"
Magnus chuckles a little.
"This is where the help is. They are called the silent brothers and well they pretty much know everything and anything."
He sees that she's afraid as she pulls Milo closer to her with her arms tightly around him.
Magnus goes closer to her and looks down at her.
"I know you're confused and scared. But I promise you that nothing will happen to you or Milo, I'll be with you every step of the way."
Cristy bites her lip and slowly nods.
He feels a hand slip into his and looks down to see Milo was holding his hand. He smiles down at him and they go inside.
After walking down a long stone spiral staircase they arrive some figures appear wearing robes.
"Hello brothers."
Magnus bows his head.
"I think you know why I've come here?"
A figure steps forward.
"Yes, it's been a long time Magnus."
The figure turns its head and walks over to Cristy who was hiding behind Magnus.
"Don't be afraid." She peers around Magnus and looks at the figure.
"You want to know what is going on?"
She nods.
"Then step forward into the circle and we will begin."
She looks at Magnus who nods at her pulling Milo close to him with his arms around him.
She walks slowly in the circle looking at the figures all around her.
"Open your mind and we will reveal all that is there."
She closes her eyes and she hears chanting.
A flash of light. Suddenly flashes of images and people began to appear in her mind.
"You must leave Aethelfled and hide! Once they find out that you are carrying a half demon, a half witch mundane child they will come after you!"
Aethelfled stares at her mother Lila who was holding her hands.
"But Magnus will protect us mom."
Lila shakes her head and walks away pacing the room.
"I saw it Aethelfled in a dream, they will come for you and use your child. Your unborn child possesses extraordinary powers. You need to go and hide.
Even Magnus won't have the power to stop them Aethelfled, you must do this to protect your child."
"Who will try to take my baby mother?"
She follows her mother around the room as she turns grabbing her daughter by the arms.
"Valentine."
Aethelfled gasps out in shock and surprise.
"Go and keep going my dear, I will do all I can to keep you safe from harm."
Aethelfled felt tears fall down her cheeks.
"I can't just leave Magnus mother."
She sighs and grasps her face with her hands.
"I know my dear but it's for the best, you need to trust me."
Aethelfled nods and turns leaving her mother's place.
Cristy then appears in the apartment where she sees herself arguing with Magnus who was trying not to let her leave.
She watches the display unfold as they both argue and watching herself leave walking out the door.
Cristy's head begins to hurt badly as it pounds. She falls to her knees with pain, holding onto her head as a flash of light happens.
A shadow was standing in front of her in the underground parking lot of the apartment building where she now lived alone, she was almost nine months
pregnant. Two men were holding her tightly. He places a hand upon her forehead, he begins to chant and perform a spell suddenly a blue light goes
around Aethelfled she passes out in the man's arms.
"It's done. Now take her to the location everything will fall into place."
"Yes Master Dante."
The two men nod picking her up and putting her into the car.
Magnus watches as his beloved screamed and cried out in pain from the flashbacks and memories. He looks down at a very scared Milo and kneels down on
the floor.
"They are hurting momma." He softly whispers looking at Magnus who smiles at him.
"Everything will be okay Milo."
He touches the boy's forehead and his eyes suddenly close falling into his arms. He picks him up in his arms holding him.
Soon it was all over and Cristy laid on the floor in exhaustion.
"There was a name she revealed."
Magnus goes over to Cristy with Milo still in his arms, he kneels on the floor.
"What was the name?"
He looks up at the silent brother.
"Dante."
Magnus's eyes grow cold it had been a long time since he heard that name.
"Is the wall down?"
The silent brother shakes his head.
"Only Dante can drop the wall and restore her memories. But the wall I believe is fading since she has since had some of her memories returned to her. "
Magnus shakes his head and was really annoyed now.
Magnus looks down at Cristy slowly waking up.
He smiles down at her and sees her eyes open slowly.
"Magnus?" She whispers.
"Hey how are you feeling?"
"I remembered some things and why is Milo sleeping?"
Magnus smiles.
"Bored I guess, come lets go."
He helps her up and they leave.
"Who is Dante?"
Magnus fixes himself a drink and goes to his bookshelf grabbing a book from it, then walks over to the couch placing it upon the table.
He flips through the pages and turns it around for her to see. He points at a man in the photo.
"That is Dante. Do you remember him?"
She begins to think and closes her eyes trying hard to remember.
"A little bit, yes. I think. I don't know what is real and what isn't real anymore."
She puts her head down and begins to cry. Magnus sighs and puts his arm around her pulling her close to him holding her.
She looks up at him and wipes her eyes.
"I want to go home Magnus."
He sighs and knew that wasn't a good idea.
"I just want to forget all this and just go home to my normal life with my son."
She gets up when he grabs her arm, she looks down at him staring at him.
He stands up and gently kisses her hand, whispering softly.
"I don't want you to go."
"I want my life back Magnus. I'm afraid and confused. I don't know what is going on or why I'm having these memories. All I do know is I'm a mother who has a
son who needs to go home and have a normal life."
"If something happens to you and...our..your son I would never forgive myself."
Cristy gives him an odd look.
"You said "our" son. Why? You're not his father, his father died in a car accident."
Magnus stares at her saying nothing.
~screams from the bedroom~
"Milo!"
Cristy cries out rushing into the bed with Magnus right behind her. They go into the bedroom finding the bed empty and Milo gone.
"Milo!"
She looks at Magnus who went to the window looking outside.
"Where is he! Who took Milo!" She screams angrily at Magnus hitting him in the arm.
He gently grabs her arms holding her close as she cries against his chest.
"Sh-sh-sh. We will get him back I promise."
