Chapter 21 - Get the black magic

The next morning,

Sky wakes up, she is in serious pain from the rain (spell) that fell on her, which would have been easy for her to resolve, but it will take like another day for her to recover and she has to get this magic out of her.

Knock, knock

Jazz opens the door,

"Hey, how are you feeling?" she asked.

"I am fine." She smiled.

"You are so bad at lying, Sky." She sits beside her. She doesn't have much idea about witches, but her best friends' face is not looking good at all after what happened last night. She saw the way her face was but she (Sky) was trying her best to cover up, and it bothers her.

"I called aunt last night, she booked the first flight, so I'll have to pick her up at the airport." Sky sighs.

"I will go with you, let me and check on Dylan, then change." She leaves.

Sky's aunt is the only one that can help her without questioning her much, she had it in mind to call her mother, but once her mother finds out what happened, she will definitely go after Betty for trying to harm Jazz and her daughter.

Jazz is like a daughter to her too and she will not want anything to harm her, they are the Robert family witch, their ancestors were close friends, till their own generations and they want to keep that going.

She opens her cloth only to see that the mark is increasing more and more, she has to make haste but the magic takes over her whole body. She knows that the witches have known what happened, and will be looking for them by now. She decides to prepare.

Jazz reached Dylan's room. He was still asleep, when she left his room, he was still asleep and now he is still sleeping. She just pecked him on his forehead and left.

As the two girls are heading downstairs to leave, the doorbell starts to ring, it rang multiple times continuously. "Who could that be?"Jazz groans as she hastens her steps to open the door. She opens the door only to see Raymond standing there.

He sighed as now he can finally breathe after seeing her, he could not sleep last night, and could not leave the house, of course Ella.

Last night,

After he escorted Emily to her room, he got to his own room. He tries to sleep, but finds it hard. When he knew that Jazz could be in danger, he tossed round and round, before he finally decided to go and see for himself if she was truly okay.

He got downstairs to open the door, but he hit an invisible wall instead, he could not even get close to the door. "Ella," he groaned and turned to see her smirking.

"Go back to your room, love. You will see her tomorrow, it's not safe outside and she is perfectly fine, you will thank me later for not letting you out" she sips her juice and goes back upstairs'.

Raymond looks at her disappearing back as he kept cursing her all night, it was so difficult to sleep last night. He stayed awake till the next morning, he prepared immediately and by then the spell was already down, and he dashed out of the house.

Ella and Emily watched the way he left, without saying a word to them. "Does he love her that much?" Emily asked.

"Yes, it is obvious, poor boy, the girl doesn't return the feelings." She shrugs.

Present,

He looked at her and smiled, "won't you let me in?" He raised one of his eyebrows.

"Oh sorry," she moved aside and he entered.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Sky asked, not looking pleased.

"Just wanted to see if Jazz was doing well." He smiled at her.

Sky rolls her eyes at him, "she is perfectly fine."

"I sent you a message on wechat, but you didn't reply." He said

"Really? Let me check it." She opens her phone and sees the message. 'Jazz, I hope you are good? Give me a reaction if you are good.' "Oh I didn't check my phone last night, I was asleep." She said, then did a little thing with her phone, then showed him. "I just reacted to it, see." She shows him.

"That's good." He smiles at her.

"How did you know my house, Raymond?" Jazz asked. "And why do you want to know how I am doing?"

"I know your house, just happened like that and as for how you are doing, I…" he was able to complete his words because Sky didn't let him finish.

"He has a witch, so he will surely know what happened last night." She is being hostile to him.

"Yeah, you got that right." He winks at Sky, who glared back at him.

"We are heading out, you don't have to worry, I didn't get hurt, and she is the one that got hurt." Jazz informed him.

"Sure, I will head back to my place, sorry about that Sky. Take care of yourself." He said he is calm now that he knows she is fine.

Sky ignores him, she is so mad at everyone, attempting to make a move on her best friend, she won't spare anyone that tries that. 'Betty, wait till I get well, I am coming for you, we are not done here.'

Raymond leaves, same as the two girls, they have to get to the airport before her aunt arrives. She can also be annoying when someone keeps her waiting, even if it's a minute, she will get all grumpy.

They arrived at the airport, luckily her flight was just arriving, and a few minutes later a young lady came out. She is wearing a shade, pants and baggy shirt and a big boot. "My babies" she waves at them, she is not with any luggage, just a small handbag.

"That's aunt." Jazz smiled.

The lady rushed to them, she hugged them. "oh my babies, " she looks at Jazz "are you hurt? Did that affect you?" she started checking Jazz, who started laughing.

"No aunt, I am fine, it's Sky. She is hurt." She points at her.

Aunt Becky looks at her, "my little niece, who did this to you, I can sense the magic, let us go already, it is going to get worse." She hastens them.

......….

Betty stayed at Marceline's place, her mother helped to remove the spell from her last night.

"Mom is there no way we can keep this from the witches?" Marceline asked.

"No, that won't work at all, she has to face the punishment. She should have been more careful, the witches can sense black magic." Her mother explained.

Betty is so scared, she is not sure if she will go to school on Monday. 'Gawd, this is so complicated.' She groans.

Marceline decided to wait till when the witches would get to them, to question them. 'I warned her but she always likes doing things her way and at the end of the day it will all be a mess, and I will have to clean them all up for her.'

"Don't worry Celine, I will just have to face them, I can't tell mom and dad about this." She smiles.

"I will see what I can do."

......…..

A dark room,

"They want to cover up the mess she caused. How possible is that?" the tiny voice giggles.

While they watched them from the big crystal. "Send the witches to that school for investigations this week. I will decide the punishment to give her later."

"Anything for you, my lady." The tiny whooshes away.

"But I like her boldness, using black magic. Those two girls are really special." The voice laughs.

No one knows her motive at all, the witches have only heard about her, but have not seen her before, only that tiny voice that has seen her face.

"Let's punish her first, before anything." She moves her hand and the crystal ball turns black.

"I am back my lady." The tiny voice said.

"Get me the black magic, that will come out of those two, I will need enough black magic, once I start my mission here."

"At your service my lady." The tiny voice whooshes away.

...........

Raymond opens the door of the house.

"How did it go? I am sure that her witch must have shunned you." Ella said.

She and Emily are watching a reality show. Emily is munching on her popcorn not minding the two. She is happy that Raymond is finally back.

"Yeah, she is too hostile." He shrugs and joins them, he sits beside Emily,"hey, love. How was your night? Didn't get to ask you that before leaving."

"I am fine." Emily replies.

"Hope you didn't miss me too much." He winks at her.

"You wish." She laughs. "Don't forget your promise." She reminds him.

"Sure, I won't. Do you want to go today?" he asked.

"Once the show is over."

She always wanted to go to the underground after she heard about it, but Raymond won't agree, saying the place is not safe for her, he only took Ella once, but the crazy witch caused trouble, when one tried to attack her, she was able to defend herself with her magic. And Emily is human, that's why he didn't want to take her there, but she saved him from the witch.

.......

Damon is on the phone with someone.

"You really have to be careful , I can feel it, something big is coming, and it's going to take lives, take care of that girl, she acts strong, but she is very fragile." The voice on the other end said.

Damon is so speechless, as he slowly drops his phone.
