This choice: Dan will be transformed into a .... • Go Back...Chapter #5Dan's luck held. Kat blew the spell, no frog... by: Unknown Dan ran cross-country at school. He and his teamates ran fifteen miles a day and it was only five to where his dad had made him promise he would meet him. From what Dan could glean from the code dad was using to hide any and all from evesdropping, enemy agents that have powers we haven't seen yet. He was being given not just the family secret but something that might offer him at least a little protection from his sisters attempts. So far her immaturity, excitement, lack of skills,
and her exceptionally low IQ had combined to make her more if a danger to herself, parked cars and all innocent farmyard animals unlucky enough to catch a totally accidental spell or Kat's equiptment traveling at the speed of sound because the spell she conjured had no exit from the container. Dan is starting to think he may survive if he can stay away long enough for her to transform herself into one of the abstract and disgusting creatures she'd been attempting to turn him into. There's dad, thank God!
Dan, we are blessed and quite possibly out of the fire but still in the kettle. We're damn close so we have to play the hand we've dealt perfectly if we are to have a chance. Why we are blessed is Aunt Sophia answered my summons and brought
the weapons of mass destruction you and I had to have to pad our hand, to give us a fighting chance against your sister as she gets stronger and closer to the full manifestation of one mean, nasty witch. Where this. That looks like a st Christopher medal. It is. The pope did our coven a tremendous favor when they unsainted a long list of people they had sainted and had been saints for longer than the US of A has been a country. It's not hard to understand coming from a church that deitized, worships and prays to Jesus' mother, Mary. They have hated and burned witchs and warlocks, Druids religiously through the ages. The reason is hilarious. We worship God and are more powerful than they because we have a relationship with God and are willing to do His will. They lean to their own understanding and in pretense give an appearance righteousness. Thus 400 years of torture, The Inquisition.
Put Christophers likeness on and do not remove the saint under any circumstances. Promise me. You have my word. Sophia put a most powerful spellthe medal carries. It can't be detected because it has no real power. Power emanates or pulses and is visable to workers in the arts. This is a spell of reversal. It uses the sent spell's force to sling it back on it's own line twice as fast with a spell increase of twice what it was coming in. It's Sophias speciality and this one WMD could end this madness. Take this bell and tie it somewhere on your person. This is your early warning system. It jingles when Kat is within one hundred yards. Sophia took this from one of Kats shoes when she was two. I remember wondering where the bell had disappeared to. Lastly is your escape plan. This is very rare. I hadn't seen any for forty years and thought it was extinct. Your Aunt again. She has been saving this just for you. She had a vision when you were just born and knowing the witching way took precautions. If her vision was erronious, no harm, no foul. As it turned out, it is worse than any of us thought it could be. This is called Dragon's Breath. It can work for you two ways but once opened it's gone. It is a one shot, make it or break it. If you are trapped and there is no escape, open the top and breath in the gases. You will have a one hour window where you are cloaked, invisable to all senses. It's complete. I would prefer if you get the opportunity to use The Dragon's Breath this way. If Kat is within ten feet of you, it doesn't have to be within a closed room, and you open the container, it instantly nuetralizes her spellcraft and within a half an hour she will be dead. Sophia did all this for you. Don't grow feint. Remember the face and eyes. Remember your fear. That is what your sister has become. Sophia is sure you possess the last of the Dragons Breath. Use it wisely. Aunt Ivy is on her way. She's a tricky one. She'll add to your arsenal but the gift she brings that may decide this course of events is she is a seer. She sees and knows things that are useful and generally strategic. Let's get some rest. Tomottow might turn into a very long day. I love you son, good night. I love you, Daddy  indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
