2:10am.
AT THE WATER DOMINANT GATHERING.
Every one at the coven felt something was wrong, they keep murmuring and staring at the Seven elders, expecting at least some announcement from them.
"Where is Rebecca," Juliet asked, looking towards the elder at the alter.
"We don't know for now, but I believe she might be taking care of some personal stuff," Jennifer, one of the Seven elders replied.
Juliet grunted. "The longer will wait, the more we all put ourselves at risks. You seven should decide what to do next," she said.
"You all should give her some time, she will be here very soon," lare, one of the Seven elder said.
"I don't know who brought the idea of not charging if the leader is not around. We are Water Dominant, we are intelligent, we should notice there is something off about this present situation. No one knows if our enemies are behind this, and also this is the perfect time for them to strike us down badly," Juliet said.
"Be positive minded little girl," One of the seven elders said.
Juliet gasp. " Do I need to remind you what the Moon Coven did to us last two years? We were badly attack and defeated because of our last leader,".
Lare sniffed. "We changed her,".
"Yeah, we did. But, it seems like history is repeating itself again. We have a lot of enemies; enemies that doesn't sleep nor slumber, ready to bring us down at all cost," Juliet spoke out of fear.
FEW HOURS AGO.
Immediately Rebecca step her foot into Margaret bedroom, Temi felt it. She quickly summoned Folasade the leader of the Moon Coven before Rebecca start to smoke the apartments with incantation.
When Folasade appeared, she felt cold. "We have to leave now," Folashade Whispered.
"Why?," Temi asked.
"There is something off about this environment, I can sense it," Folashade replied.
"Don't worry; you can go, I will stay and take care of her," Temi said.
"Alright, Margaret must not live to see another day. And if necessary, kill the other person with her," Folashade teleported.
PRESENT TIME.
Rebecca chuckled. "So, you are not the enemy?" She asked.
"Yes, your enemy is out there. Now you know I took your husband as hostage, you should be asking yourself for what reasons," Margaret replied.
Rebecca sighed. "I was just about to," She said.
Margaret groaned. "And you think I will tell you with this my present position?".
The seven elders couldn't get close to the apartment due to the magical barriers used. "The charm used can only be disconnected from the inside; so for now there is nothing we can do," Judith, one of the seven elders said.
Lare signed. "Yeah. The signature and nature of this barriers look like the act of a Charmed one,".
Margaret and Rebecca were both able to sense the present of the seven elders. "Thank god they are here," Margaret laughed.
"Wow, am out numbered," Temi banged her hand on the wall when she sensed the appearance of the Seven elders.
Temi start to chant so as to suppress the barriers that surrounded the house. At that moment, Rebecca felt it. "Something is wrong," She sounded scared.
"Like seriously?," Margaret smiled.
Rebecca looked scared. "Someone is bringing down the barriers".
"I warned you, I did. I thought the barriers can only be disactivated from within?" Margaret asked.
Rebecca sniffed. "Yeah. My God, Temi".
"Are you sure?" Margaret asked.
"Yeah, she is the only one I can point at," Rebecca replied.
"Fool, she is not a Witch and I could have sense any magical stuff within her," Margaret said.
"Since when had she been here?" Rebecca asked.
"Few hours ago" Margaret replied.
"She is here for you, fool," Rebecca screamed.
"What do you mean she is here for me?" She sounded curious.
Rebecca start to face around the room. "Have you forgotten you are a witch?.. or do I have to remind you of your enemies? An old friend asked for help, and you accepted without a second thought".
Margaret sniffed. "And if truly she is a witch, you seriously need to release me now," She said.
Rebecca Chuckled. "Am not foolish, I will rather use you as an exchange for my life if necessary".
Don't do this Rebecca. My elders are outside, just bring down the barriers and allow them in for help, " Margaret begged.
Rebecca sniffed. "Trust me Rebecca, if she is truly a witch, believe me, she belongs to some group of powerful Coven. And the only group of Coven I have problems are those of the Fourth heaven," Margaret said.
"The Moon Coven," Rebecca whispered.
"Yeah, the gods creators. Just free me and run," Margaret said.
"Where are you keeping my husband first?" Rebecca asked.
Margaret groaned. Are you high ? You are asking the right question at the wrong time," She screamed.
Immediately the elders knew the barriers used was brought down, they all walked towards Margaret apartment in form of a moving living water. At that same time, Rebecca set Margaret free to fight Temi herself, while she teleported out side the apartment. She looked so convinced on what she saw at that moment.
"Don't let Rebecca leave, she caused everything," Margaret communicated to her elders telepathically.
"I thought you gave me your words Margaret?" Rebecca asked.
Margaret chuckled. "Wow, so you heard that? If you survive Tonight battle, don't ever trust me again, although you won't even survive it. And to you my elders, remember Charmed one has psychic abilities," She said.
Margaret walked through the wall that linked into her sitting room. Temi seated as if she was expecting someone. "Wow, you kept me waiting," Temi said.
Margaret chuckled. "Oh, sorry dear. Kind of busy".
"I know, just don't want to interrupt," Temi smiled.
Margaret gasp. " I know you have an unexpected visitor with same intentions as mine. I should have rush in there and dealt with the both of you, but I think the game will be more interesting sitting, waiting for the winner," Temi said.
"Nice strategy. Wow, you knew one of us will come out alive and weak at the same time; so you won't waste much effort in fighting. But sorry to tell you that, none of us are dead nor weak," Margaret smiled.
"I know that already; that why am sitting. I knew she set you free; but so stupid to trust you. But sorry to tell you that was also my expectation and calculation," Temi said.
Margaret groaned. "Charmed one's don't travel far if their foot are not connected to the soil. I knew am not capable to fight the nine of you so, I brought down the barriers so as for her to fight them all by herself.
"So, you think she has that power to fight my seven elders," Margaret chuckled.
Temi sniffed. "Am very certain of that".
