The time at the witch realm differed with the normal time on Earth. While Nina and Regina searched Amiya's home and then the whole town for her, they realized they had searched the whole night with no rest in between. Come dusk, they were still on the road this time joined by Hawaii as they ventured out to seek Amiya hoping they aren't too late and perhaps she was at her granny's house.
Nina was the one driving as Hawaii and Regina got stuck together in the back seat not talking to one another. Hawaii was still mad at her for helping out Nazar, he hadn't forgotten and was punishing her for that. But Regina knew better than to force things when it comes to them. Somehow with time they seem to come out of their problems and fall for each other all over again.
"Aren't you going to speak to me?" She asked Hawaii with a smile between her lips.
"Nope!" He replied.
*****************
Inside a drawn up pentagon which symbolized dark magic. Pure dark magic which was powerful and intended to tap into the underworld. The whole pentagon was surrounded by fire which roared loudly and shone brightly.
Three powerful witches sat inside the pentagon with their hands to the front and eyes closed. Chanting in unison "Jeberil fuyashii baloor. Jeberil fuyashii baloor, Jeberil fuyashii baloor" and as they continued with the spell loudly suddenly they stopped and opened their eyes.
"Is that it?" Amiya asked. Gladys and Lunara looked at each other. Then Lunara stood up "I have to meet Hades first. I shall be back in no time"
"Hades? The god of the underground!"
"Yes Amiya, and you will take me there"
Amiya turned her attention to Gladys "What's going on granny? Why is the underworld god involved? Tell me everything..."
"Calm down Miya nothing is wrong she's just going to meet him that's it"
"No you are lying!" Shouted Amiya and she stood up too but Lunara quickly put her down in place. She fell outside of the pentagon.
"Remember Amiya you are in my realm and you will do exactly as I tell you to and not otherwise. Now get in here and send me to the underworld"
"I'd rather die that do your biddings"
"You don't have to. But you know I will destroy her and you won't be able to see her ever again"
Amiya's anger had overcome her and she knew better. Lunara wasn't in the mood to play and she showed it, so it was either she helped her or condemn her mother to eternal of torture which Lunara guarantee it.
"It will be over soon Miya, I promise" said Gladys trying to pull Amiya inside the pentagon. But Amiya refused to take her hand.
"I will never believe anything you say ever again, you used me grandma"
"We have to save ourselves child. This is how we will save us"
"What about my friends?"
"I always tell you Amiya stop caring about vampires" Gladys shouted at her and then she pulled her inside the pentagon against her will.
This time Lunara completely sealed it and Amiya had nowhere to go. "Take me to the underworld" said Lunara but Amiya didn't oblige.
Two male witches in grey suits barged inside the room holding Amiya's mother who was unconscious and weak. Lunara took out a knife and slit Amiya's mother throat, and as she expected Amiya lost her grip and screamed her lungs out watching her mother falling down on the floor with blood spattered all over. She tried to get out of the pentagon with no success, she was sealed inside.
"You can save her Amiya, but you just need to send me to the underworld first"
"Okay okay I will. Let me heal her first"
"Send me now"
Gladys held Amiya's hands "It's alright repeat after me..."
"She's dying"
"Then we must hurry. Come-on Miya we can do this" said Gladys and then she shut her eyes close and so did Amiya.
They chanted a very dangerous spell which opened up the route to the underworld. The earth was shaken and it felt like an earthquake. Blood which wasn't red but black in color fell down from Gladys eyes but she still kept going. When it was time, Lunara touched Gladys shoulder because she was the anchor and then descended downward straight to hell through a portal which appeared right where they sat. The portal closed after Lunara vanished inside it.
Then, it all grew silence inside the room that Amiya and Gladys were. The pentagon disappeared and Amiya rushed outside, she picked up her mother to have a look but then she was fine with not even a single scar on her neck. The blood which sprayed all over the floor was nowhere, "It was all in my head" she said and then her mother looked at her.
"Who are you?" She asked.
"Don't worry. Let's get you back to your cell for now" Amiya raised her mother up and then she looked back at Gladys. They didn't say anything to each other, the gaze alone was enough.
Amiya left her grandma inside that room and took her mother to the cell which she was always kept in. Along the way they talked and Amiya learned that her mother was called Lisa. She seemed fine and not crazy as Lunara described her, they took two corridors and met three witches on the way.
They asked "Where are you taking the prisoner?"
"Back to her cell. She's my mother please let me handle her"
"Does the Queen know?"
"Of course she does"
After a minute or so of deciding whether to let Amiya pass with Lisa or not. The witches came to conclusion that she may proceed.
And Amiya continued walking with her mother slowly passing one cell after the other along the way. Lisa was quiet until she saw a door to her cell and that's when she abruptly lost it and screamed.
"I don't want to go back. Please please don't take me back" She screamed. "Don't take me back please she'll hurt me"
"Who'll hurt you?" Amiya asked her.
"That evil woman! She hurts me every time please don't take me..."
"She's not here right now. I promise I'll get you out of here but you just need to hang on a little bit longer"
Amiya tried her best to help Lisa calm down but she failed. In that instant Lisa kicked her to the wall and she fled. She went crazy screaming and running all over the palace, Amiya ran after her. She called out to her "Lisa wait..." but she neither stopped nor slowed down.
Lisa pushed over the guards and kicked everything that was on her way. She destroyed Lunara's things as she attempted to breach the gate and run wildly, like a devil possessed but she never made it far as Lunara magically appeared just few steps from the main gate and Lisa fell into her.
"Where are you going Lisa?" Lunara asked her. "You think you could just leave the palace? I told you I'm not done with you yet..." Lunara bent Lisa down then she dragged her by the hair. She was merciless and brutal her face alone expressed that.
Amiya just watched as her mother was dragged right in front of her and she couldn't do anything except crying. She hated Lunara so much that she wished she could just kill her right then and there but she knew that was impossible even if it took all the power she had. After sometime she made her way back inside to continue with the spell.
When she got inside the first thing she asked was "Where's my mother?"
"Back where she belongs" replied Lunara "Don't get over yourself darling we have work to do"
"I'm not doing anything until you tell me what I need to do to set her free"
"Miya... She's crazy can't you see that? She needs to be kept at the palace for her own safety" Gladys explained and she even tried to move closer to Amiya. But Amiya pushed her away. She was pissed at her.
At the big table which was inside the room. There was a stone which was pink in color, but it kept changing colors with time. While Lunara and Gladys were in their deep conversations Amiya was hooked by it. It was a stone from the underworld and Lunara had just come with it. Amiya thought perhaps that stone could mean something, it must be very important if she had to fetch it from the underworld.
She moved closer to the table and no one paid attention to her. Then she took it but the stone was very powerful and magical that it shone a light so bright and she couldn't hide it anymore.
"What are you doing? Give me back the stone" Lunara panicked and she moved closer to Amiya who took two steps backwards as if trying to flee "Give me the stone"
"Why do you need it?"
"It doesn't concern you give it back"
"Hades gave you this?"
"Gladys stop this before I kill her!" Lunara shouted at Gladys.
"Miya give it back"
"No granny, I refuse to do what she wants. I can't let my friends die"
Gladys tried to take the stone back from Amiya with no luck. Amiya sealed herself in a way none of them could touch her, they had taught her everything about harvesting the power of the Salem witches and she used it on them to escape the witch realm with the stone.
Lunara went crazy, she couldn't pass on to earth because she was dead and hence couldn't chase Amiya but Gladys could. "I want her head. You hear me Gladys I want that bitch's head" she barked orders to her whilst moving around the palace and calling out the guards to bring Lisa to her.
*******************
After what felt like forever of traveling from the witch realm to earth finally Amiya crossed the veil and made her way to the land of the living. She was panting hard but still she had the stone on her hand so she ran.
She raced towards Warlington bar which wasn't so far from where she landed. It was noon and hence she was sure that she will find Nina at her house. But she needed a ride so bad to take her there so she ran to the parking lot. In search of cars which were packed outside Amiya came through Simon's car, her ex boyfriend who lied to her about him being a werewolf.
Simon came outside and he wore black shorts with a white T-shirt and a huge black coat on top. His green eyes glittered but his face was sad, he was missing Miraj so much and he had no friends at Warlington. He looked around and took out a cigar from his coat and started smoking.
Amiya was distracted for a moment and she indulged at how handsome Simon looked with his beautiful black long hair falling down effortlessly. She loved him but after what he did she felt disgusted by him, as she looked Simon caught her gazing. He was shocked seeing her there at the parking lot.
He called out "Amiya? Amiya is that you?" but no answer so he dropped his cigar and walked over there to make sure.
"Miya...?" He called out again this time he found her hiding between the cars.
"What?" Amiya shouted at him. "Leave me alone!"
"Amiya I'm sorry for what happened. I know I should have said something but... Miraj is my alpha and we do what she wants" He tried to explain.
"So basically what you are saying is that you are Miraj's bitch right?"
"That's not what..."
"I don't care Simon. Leave me be" said Amiya and turned over.
"Well are you looking for something? I can help"
"I need a ride ASAP! But not from you"
"Come on we doing this? I'll drive you, let's go"
"I said not from you Simon"
"It's just a ride Miya. I owe you this at least!"
Simon managed to convince her to get inside his car and then they all drove off to Nina's as Amiya held on to the stone tight.
