Chapter 24 - Changes sure do Suck

"Um…Guys? Someone's missing from this room," Alex checked the room but there was no sign of Salvadora.

"Maybe she went downstairs." They all went downstairs to look for her but she was nowhere to be found.

"Damn it! This can't be happening again, I'm tired of getting worried about her," Sam was fully awake now and was really concerned about her.

They checked the garage and there was no car. "Ugh! She took the car," said Sam disappointed. "But mine's still here. Let's go find her!" Alex revived the hope.

Alex was driving the car as Sam and Adaline were too young to drive.

"We were so worried that we didn't even think where she might be," said Sam.

"Don't worry, she wouldn't have gotten far as there's a huge traffic just a little up ahead," Adaline said checking the google map.

"Then we just have to spot our black car, sounds easy? Doesn't it?" Alex tried to cheer up a little but it didn't help.

All of them were worried as hell, this was getting really serious. They didn't think that a little investigation could ever turn into a big problem like this.

"Come on, let's get out of the car and check," Sam said. They all got out of the car and started checking all the cars with the correct number plate.

It was a little weird for someone to do look for their car like this, but they didn't care. The only thing that mattered was Salvadora.

"Hey! Check this out! This is my car, the number plate matched," said Sam happily.

"Unfortunately, it's empty," Adaline's word drained the color of their faces.

"Don't lose hope, she wouldn't have gotten far if she walked, let's go!" Alex commanded.

They searched and searched, after a long time, they finally found her. They all were exhausted, but they were relieved.

The smile on Sam's face was bright, everybody was happy to see her. But, Sal's face was off, she had a pale face with a blank expression.

It wasn't the best, but they were glad to see her.

Sam went towards her and said, "Sal! I'm so glad to see you right now, let's go home."

"Home? Huh? Pomphrey's dying there because of me and I'm supposed to go home?" Salvadora said and backed away.

"What are you talking about?" Adaline asked confused.

"You people really have no idea of what's happening here, and it's not your fault. Samuel Silverton, my little brother, I really love you and I don't want to leave you but trust me, I really have no choice.

I'm doing this for your sake only," She hugged him.

They both cried and tears came in Adaline and Alex's eyes too.

"Sam, this is the Legacy of our cursed family," before they could say anything, Salvadora said in a loud and clear voice, "Somnus, Somnus, Somnus, et non surgere, donec ego sum, fieri," and they all fainted.

"Are you sure this will work?" asked Rose. "I hope so, it's supposed to work, replied Pomphrey.

"What do you mean by 'it's supposed to'? Huh?" asked Rose.

"Rose, you've known magic since little and you know that it's never 100% accurate, we're doing everything we can and that's 100% true," explained Sybil.

"I understand. Thank you, you both. I don't know what I would have done without you two," thanked Rose.

"I understand Rose, it's okay to worry about your child," Sybil said in a soft voice.

"I think I should call Ric now, he must be getting worried," said Rose and then dialed his number.

"But, Where did Pom go?" asked Sybil.

"She was just here. Where did she go?" replied Rose.

"I'll check the other room, maybe she's there," Sybil said.

"Rose! Roseline, come here as fast as you can!" screamed Sybil from the other room.

Rose rushed to the other room and was horrified by what she saw next. Pomphrey was lying on the floor with the support of the table beside her and her face was pale and dull.

Her face was covered in blood as it was pooling out of her eyes, nose, and mouth. Blood was dripping down her face like water and her eyeball had vanished!

She was murmuring some words under her breath which they obviously couldn't hear in her condition. The whole scene brought tears to both of their eyes.

"What's happening?" asked Rose panting.

"She's fighting Rose, Rebekah is possessing her again!" Sybil explained.

"We got to do something, right? I hope there's some way to help her," said Rose.

. "Yeah, I'm gonna bring some stuff really quickly."

Sybil rushed and brought some stuff like a cross, a holy watered rope, and other kinds of stuff used in witchcraft.

She held Pomphrey's hand and tied her with the rope. Then she screamed loudly, "Iratus spiritus Rebecca, propter deum sit hoc corpus vivere in pace, Aut vos mos have ut persolvo pretium."

As soon as she started saying those words, Pomphrey started screaming loudly and breaking things without even touching them.

The whole scene was so horrifying that Rose was stunned in her place, she couldn't move. Things weren't going the way she wanted to at all.

But Sybil continued anyway, "Relinquere, relinquo, vivum corpus dilectus tuus soror, aut aliud nihil melius loco quam in inferno pro te." Finally, she stopped and fainted gently on the floor.

Meanwhile, Sam, Alex, and Adaline slowly opened their eyes.

"Where the hell are we?" asked Adaline still feeling drowsy.

"God, I hate my aunt!" Yelled Sam angrily.

"Let's not waste our time yelling or screaming. I think we're near that stupid house, she must have gone there," said Alex finally saying something useful.

"Let's go!" said Adaline.

It didn't take much time to reach there, but it took a lot to wake up. Sam's heartbeat was racing, he couldn't waste any time thinking about anything else.

He was flustered, he couldn't help but think if it was really her sister or Rebekah was messing with her.
