Chapter Fifteen
Tamsin and Dyson walked beaten and bloody into the Dal where they were met with shocked expressions from Trick and Acacia.
"Do I even want to know what the hell happened with you two?" Acacia said in a monotoned voice as she sipped her vodka.
"Probably not.." Tamsin said as she shrugged and flopped down at the bar.
"Good gods.. You two look like you've just fought in the Trojan War.. Is there anything I can get you?!" Trick asked in worry.
"A beer for me and.. I'm guessing vodka for the Valkyrie" Dyson said with a grin as Tamsin nodded and grinned.
"I meant more on the side of first aid not alcohol but if you insist.." Trick said as he rolled his eyes and started to pour them their drinks.
"So what kicked your asses?" Acacia said with a grin as Tamsin rolled her eyes.
"We had to hunt down a Ciudach that was sighted in the park devouring several human victims and eliminate it" Dyson said as he sipped his beer.
"You know the routine, find the bastard, stab him then blow up a massive cave in the middle of nowhere and barely make it out alive before we're charred to death, no big deal" Tamsin said as she gave a cocky grin and chugged her vodka.
"A Ciudach did this huh? And yet here you both are bloody and alive.. Not bad for a wolf and mother to be Valkyrie" Acacia said as she laughed.
"Whatever" Tamsin said with a chuckle as she playfully pushed her mentor.
"Where is Bo?" Trick asked as he began to clean several of the glasses.
"She's off trying to figure out who jacked her clients head" Tamsin said nonchalantly as she shrugged.
"WHAT?!" Trick said in shock as he whipped his head around and looked at Tamsin.
"I'm with the Blood King.. What the hell is the pregnant Succubus doing out fighting something like that?!" Acacia said as she starred wide eyed at the Valkyrie.
"I tried to tell her" Dyson said as he smiled and looked to Tamsin.
"What?" Tamsin asked as she looked around to the three who gazed at her.
"You let Bo go off alone to battle an Encantado?!" Trick said, still in shock.
"She isn't alone, she has Alex and Kenzi" Tamsin said back as she raised an eyebrow.
"Oh nice, you're happily going to let your wife go battle a fae like that with a baby fae Ember who up until two weeks ago was human and has no earthly idea how to control her powers AND your sister, who is practically a damn infant with no memories and enough power to set fire to an entire nation?!" Acacia said as she smacked Tamsin's arm.
"Okay hold the hell up! Everyone just calm the hell down! Jesus I'm not a damn idiot! Bo has a Succubus and Valkyrie hybrid baby in her damn stomach that's got her juiced up beyond belief, she's bonded to me which gives her an enormous amount of strength and she's got two Ember's with her that both will activate their powers if she's in danger, no matter their experience or amount of control, they both thrive on saving the ones they love and let's face it, everyone absolutely loves Bo enough to die for her! If I go off to save her cute little ass she's going to feel like she can't stand on her own two feet and although she hasn't TOLD me that she's feeling, you all forget that we can sense each other's emotions and I know that since she's pregnant she's been feeling like she's weak and incapable of fighting for herself and it's freaking her out so the last thing I want to do is unable her or make her feel like I'm babysitting her because trust me, if you think the damn Encatado is bad, wait and see a pissed off Bo.. THAT I won't win a fight against.. I know Bo, I know my wife and baby mama guys.. If she needs me she'll let me know and I'll be there quicker than a fucking blink but until she let's me know that she needs me, she needs to be able to take care of herself. I don't want her to feel weak because in our world weak will get you killed.. And I can't lose her.." Tamsin said as she looked up to the three.
Dyson smiled a sweet and warm smile as he put his hand on Tamsin's shoulder.
"Well I'll be damned.. I think Tams has finally learned what it means to really fall whole heartedly and foolishly in love.." Acacia said as she still looked at Tamsin like she had a third head, in total shock and disbelief.
"I must say Tamsin.. You're wiser than I give you credit for.. If anything happens.." Trick started to say when Tamsin cut him off.
"If anything happens I'll be there to save her Trick.." Tamsin said as she looked him in the eye.
"That's exactly what I was going to say.." Trick said with a smile.
Tamsin returned the smile with a smirk as she nodded and sipped on her vodka.
—
Bo, Kenzi and Alex were at the docks where they believed the boat Caroline's mother was at with her head, attempting to make her escape. There was a large yacht that was slowly drifting away from the dock.
"Dude look.. Enchanted.. That's the bitch's boat.. I bet mother dearest is already on there taking flipper's head.. We gotta get to that shit.." Alex whispered as she poked her head over and glanced out at the water.
"Oh? That shit? You mean the big ass party boat already peacin' out? Alrightttttt Bo Bo so we're at the dock.. And I don't know about you but I'm not part fish sooooooo.. What's this amazing plan you've come up with?" Kenzi whispered as they ducked behind some of the cargo crates around the dock.
"Not sure.. I haven't thought that far ahead.." Bo whispered as she looked around the dock trying to find a way to get out on the water and to the boat where Caroline's mother is. "But, I've always been one for improvising.." Bo said with a wicked grin.
"Uh oh.. Crazy Bo Bo look…" Kenzi said as she glanced over to Bo and then to Alex.
"What the hell are we about to do.." Alex groaned as she rolled her eyes.
"Kenz.. Know how to hot wire a boat?" Bo whispered as she grinned.
"Do I? Oh Bo Bo please.. We both know the answer to that.. Come on.." Kenzi said as she and Bo stalked towards an abandoned speed boat tied to the dock.
"And here I told Tamsin I'd keep you two OUT of trouble.." Alex sighed as she followed the two, Kenzi and Bo both heard Alex and couldn't help but chuckle.
The three hopped into the boat and Kenzi ducked down and began to tie the wires together.
"Hurry Kenz.. We gotta get to that yacht before it gets too far out.." Bo whispered.
"One.. More.. OW.. Seconddddd.. BOOM! I'm the fucking master!" Kenzi said as she did a happy dance.
"That's my girl!" Bo said as she high fived Kenzi.
"Anddddd do either of you two morons know how to fucking drive a boat?" Alex said as she smirked and crossed her arms.
Bo and Kenzi both stopped their happy dance and looked at each other, then towards Alex.
Alex simply rolled her eyes and shoved the two out of the way and started to drive towards the yacht as Kenzi and Bo both smiled.
"Keep them safe Tamsin says.. Don't let them do anything stupid she says.. They aren't too much trouble she says.. Oh no, not at all, here I am simply trying to get my damn memories back and I end up committing boat theft and chasing after a crazy bitch.." Alex said as she rolled her eyes, causing Kenzi and Bo to laugh harder.
"Oh you love us.." Bo said as she and Kenzi both leaned on either side of Alex and kissed her cheek.
"Don't deny it.." Kenzi said as they pulled away giggling.
"You two are lucky you're cute.." Alex said as she laughed and grinned.
They sped up to the yacht and Alex tied the speed boat to the side of the large vessel.
"Climb up that ladder.." Kenzi said as she glanced over to Bo.
"Got it.." Bo said as she started up the rope ladder on the side of the boat.
"We'll be right behind you.." Kenzi said with a wink.
"Let's go.." Bo whispered as she started up the ladder with Kenzi and Alex close behind her.
"I kinda like the view.." Alex whispered as Kenzi climbed in front of her.
"Hey you.. No talking like that until you remember who I am.." Kenzi hissed back as she gave a playful glare.
"Sure thing Sparky, whatever you say.." Alex whispered as they climbed to the top.
As they stood on the deck of the massive yacht Bo started to look around.
"For a party boat this place kinda sucks.." Kenzi said as she looked around the empty boat deck.
"Where is this woman? We got the right boat didn't we?" Alex asked as she started to walk around.
"Yeah.. We definitely did.." Bo said as her eyes flashed blue and she looked to the stairs to see a woman walking down the stairs in a sun dress with long flowing white hair and leaving a purple slime behind her as she descended.
"My my my, what do we have here?" The woman asked with a wide grin.
"Listen bitch, we don't have time to talk.. You know why we're here and what we want.." Bo said as she looked at the woman.
"Well don't you all just have absolutely no manners?" The woman said with a smirk.
"Oh like you're the one to talk, you jacked your daughter's head and now you're trying to kill her. Pretty sure manners isn't your deal either granny" Kenzi said as she raised an eyebrow.
"Don't go assuming you know who the hell I am missy.. My name is Mel and I'm one of the most powerful Encantados of this world. My daughter signed her death warrant the day she decided to join the light and flee home.. Our line of fae is bred for darkness and that little bitch thought she was better than all of us and look where that has lead her. Unprotected and feeding without killing. It's a disgrace to our family!" Mel screamed in anger.
"The only thing she needs protection from is you! Now give us her head and we'll consider not killing you" Bo said as she let her blue eyes beam.
"If you want the head.. You'll have to pry it from my cold dead hands.." Mel said with a grin as she held up the head of her daughter.
"That should be easy ass wipe, there's one of you and three of us.." Kenzi said with a smile as she flashed her eyes red.
"Foolish girl.. You really think a woman of my stature would travel alone?" Mel hissed as her eyes beamed purple and she lunged towards Bo.
Four men came sprinting out of the side door of the yacht. Both looked like morphed and jacked as they wore what looked to be tight green speedo bottoms and had scales covering half of their face and exposed chest and arms.
"Oh fuck MER-MEN!" Kenzi stammered as she stepped back closer to Alex. The blonde simply laughed and nudged Kenzi with her elbow.
"Chill Sparky.. Fire vs. Water.. You got this babe.." Alex said as she flashed her eyes red and flicked her palms out allowing the blue flames to cover them.
Kenzi looked at her and just smiled as she blushed, she could have sworn she saw a hint of the old Alex flash through those eyes but before she could say more, the blonde was gone and lunging for one of the men and tackling him to the ground.
Kenzi whipped her hands out and allowed the red flames to consume them, "Let's do this.." Kenzi growled as she took off running towards the men.
Bo and Mel were tumbling backwards as punches were being thrown both left and right. Bo pinned Mel down on the ground and was now fighting to restrain her. Bo landed a punch to the woman's face and was preparing to reach for her dagger but the purple eyed woman leaned forward striking Bo across the face with her hand and sending the Succubus flying backwards.
"How dare you draw blood from me Succubus!" Mel growled in anger, "I'll enjoy spilling your blood! I've heard you're with child.. My what a name that will give me.. Striking down the bonded Succubus and her unborn heir to power.."
"That's a lot of talk with not enough action.." Bo said as her eyes beamed and she landed a kick to Mel's stomach, sending the woman flying back and crashing through a sun bathing chair that was laid out on the deck and rolling backwards.
Alex and Kenzi were busy fighting their attackers. Alex had managed to take her bright flames and grasp one of the men around the neck as she snapped it, causing him to fall lifeless to the ground. She was now sparring with the second man when she heard a crash and looked over to see Kenzi pinned to the wall by one of the men and taking punches to her side from the other, with no fire coming from her hands.
"KENZI! FIRE! USE IT!" Alex screamed as she ducked a kick from the man and punched him across the face.
"I.. Can't.. It like.. Went out.." Kenzi choked out as she struggled to free herself.
"GET MAD!" Alex yelled as she spun low and kicked the man's legs out from under him.
"You think I'm not mad?!" Kenzi yelled to the best of her ability.
"NO! YOU NEED TO GET PISSED! And I know just how to make you that mad.." Alex said as she grabbed the man before her who was shaking his head to recover from the blow the Ember had just given him to the head. "Dude listen.. I know you're all woozy and shit but I'm gonna need you to try to kiss me kay?" Alex said as she grimaced at the sight of the unattractive man.
"Huh?" The man said in confusion.
Alex pulled the man in so that his lips were on her cheek. "EW GROSS DUDE! GET THE HELL OFF OF ME!" Alex yelled as she tried to struggle away, but kept her hands on the man's chest to ensure his lips were still touching her cheek.
Kenzi glanced over and saw the large scaled man in a speedo kissing Alex's cheek, dangerously close to the blonde's lips.
"OH HELL NO!" Kenzi yelled as her eyes beamed a deadly red and her body became engulfed in red flames causing both men to let go of her and wince as they shook their hands in pain and stumbled back. Kenzi turned and kicked one of the men flying over the railing of the boat and into the water.
"YOU WANT SOME FISH BOY?!" Kenzi screamed as she bucked towards the man. The man held up his hands in surrender and dove over the railing and into the water. Kenzi smirked then turned and walked with determination over to the man who was all over Alex and grabbed him and spun him around. With a swift punch, Kenzi used her flame covered hands to knock him to the ground unconscious then kicked him in the stomach where he slid off the boat deck and to the water.
"Impressive.." Alex said as she smiled and crossed her arms.
"Oh you and I are so talking later!" Kenzi said as she pointed her finger at the blonde.
Bo stood there with a proud grin on her face, a grin that soon vanished when a very angry Encantado stood up and her eyes beamed purple as her body quickly began to morph into a sea serpent of some kind.
"You shall die Succubus…" Mel hissed in her enormous snake like body.
"Oh honey, I wish you knew how many times I've heard that.." Bo said with a smirk.
Mel whipped her tail around hitting Bo in the face and sending the Succubus tumbling backwards. Bo went to stand up but was hit again by the tail. Each strike felt like a thousand pounds coming down on her. Mel's fae form was gigantic and seemed to consume over half the boat.
Bo took her dagger out and stabbed Mel's tail, causing the serpent to shriek in pain. Bo stood to her feet, normally she'd feel pain and her body would hurt all over but right now she felt stronger than ever. Bo leaned back and cracked her neck, something Tamsin usually did before she became the Valkyrie. Bo smiled as she looked to Mel.
"Wh-What is happening to your eyes?" Mel hissed.
Alex and Kenzi both whipped their heads around towards Bo and were shocked at the sight they saw. Instead of two beaming royal blue eyes, they saw one blue eye of a Succubus, and one black eye of a Valkyrie. Bo was now standing tall with two different colored eyes.
"They change color.. Kinda my thing.." Bo said as she smiled.
"You and your Valkyrie are too strong.. It's unnatural and to bring a child into this world with the strength is has will unbalance the fae world.. Killing you will be my pleasure.." Mel hissed as she swiped her snake tail at the Succubus.
"BO LOOK OUT!" Kenzi yelled as she lunged forward. Alex was close behind her and had thrust her body where it was covered in bright blue flames. The two Embers were racing towards the Succubus with both of their bodies covered in their trademark fire.
"I think you two need to cool off.." Mel said as she shot a powerful wave of water from her mouth, sending both Alex and Kenzi flying off the boat and plummeting to the water below.
Bo jumped over Mel's tail strike and turned throwing her dagger directly towards the snake and landing it directly into the woman's the heart. Mel let out a painfilled scream and started to shake, thus rocking the entire boat. Bo ran over and grabbed the head that had tumbled around on the dock and began to rush towards the edge. Bo turned and look to see the serpent falling through the deck and the entire boat starting to crack. Without hesitation, the Succubus jumped from the boat and landed in the water.
Bo came up and gasped as she watched the boat with the dying Encantado starting to sink below the water.
"HOLY TITANIC! THAT SHIT WAS AWESOME!" Kenzi said from behind the Succubus.
Bo spun around and smiled when she saw Kenzi and Alex treading water behind her.
"Are you two okay?" Bo asked as she swam towards the two.
"Few battle bruises but I think we'll live.." Kenzi said with a grin, "Did you get the head?"
Bo just smiled and raised the head above the water.
"Uhm ew.." Kenzi said as she laughed, "Come on, we're going to have to swim to shore.. It seems our borrowed boat sank to the bottom with the heart of the ocean.."
"Come on Rose.. Let's go.." Bo said as she laughed to her best friend's Titanic reference.
"I swear.. One day with you two back in my own body and we not only steal a speed boat but we sink a yacht.." Alex said as she swam towards the dock.
"You know it was fun.. Plus, we saved Flipper" Kenzi said as she splashed the blonde.
"Yeah but BO gets to tell Tams what we did today" Alex said as she laughed.
"I don't think she'll be too upset, I mean it's not like we caused TOO much trouble right?" Bo said as the other two stopped swimming and looked at her. Bo looked at them, then turned to see the final pieces of the yacht sinking below the sea, "Okay fine, I'll tell Tamsin about our day.. But hey.. We didn't die"
"Because she'll absolutely LOVE that answer" Kenzi said with a giggle, "She's gonna be PISSED" the Russian added in a singing voice.
"Eh.. We'll see.." Bo said with a smile.
"Oh please we all know that bitch won't stay mad at you long" Alex said with a laugh, "Let's hurry this shit up though, we gotta get Cinderella her head back before the sun goes down or we need to arrange a burial"
"God I love you" Kenzi said as she and Bo started to laugh.
