*** It was night and the council meeting was already I progress , I pushed through the huge doors and walked in, I could see their eyes shift to me, you are late Dante elder Richard said, sorry I had things I had to attend to, what's more important than tonight's meeting, the head of the councils , sir pascal angrily queried me, I looked at the man I was very familiar with him, he was a tight friend of my father's, and I knew he was the one who I suggested I be here, I sat down at the empty seat I guessed was mine.
*** You all know why we are gathered here this night , we have three topics for tonight
1. To know the current status of our progress in eliminating the spies who have infiltrated the village and school
2. To discuss on the ritual that would be held tomorrow night.
3. To discuss matters pertaining the shapeshifters'' and the current identity of their head dark witch.
*** The entire meeting room, was pin drop quiet, people were waiting for each other to start talking, I looked at their seating arrangements, it seems the members of the council were divided into two.
*** It seems no one wants to talk, so I will start asking questions myself, Dante, since you are part of the head of the school group, how's your job on eliminating those shapeshifters that have infiltrated the school coming along?, we are waiting for them to make a move, one move and the person can connect us to the rest of them., are there any suspects among the students at all? Not at the moment sir Richard, I would make sure to do my part by eliminating them , if you say so I would hold you up to it to do so.
*** So secondary, we would be talking about tomorrow night's ritual, so I hope we all are prepared, the high priestess we would like you to emphasize on the processes, and a woman walked up the podium, she looked to be no younger than in her late late thirties, but witches agged slowly especially the more powerful they were , good evening to you all as you all know am Alicia, tomorrow's ritual would be to strengthen the seal that has been keeping shapeshifters in this land that has made it impossible for them to have left.
*** It would be done secretly as to not alert which ever spies placed here that the seals are weakening or about what we plan to do , it is going to be a very powerful ritual because we would be drawing an immense amount of energy from the bloodline, which is why I would need Dante's special blood as an anchor to chanell the energy since his part half vampires and witch, let me explain further we would be drawing energy from. His witch side , while his vampires side would be speeding up his recovery thereby replenishing his energy fast, I would also like to announce that all students belonging to the witch race are to remain inside as to avoid getting hit from different spells especially those of the student witches who have not properly mastered the art of witchcraft, tomorrow is very important, because if we are not able to strengthen the seal, we would be dealing with more than shapeshifters even those dark witches would be able to trespass the seal.
*** I have another information, I would pas across, information that the last bloodline of heralds descendants is still alive , have come across me, and the quiet council room immediately went up in an uproar, what? , the descendant of the witch who placed the curse?, yes she continued , and the dark witches sadly have received the information, we have also been tracing the bloodline source that see if any witch with any special powers has been awakened but none so far, as your all know the heralds witches are from the first bloodline therefore the original witches from history, their powers are none to surpass that of other witches , that is why their existence are mainly kept secrets, we all also know that the scroll were written by a heralds and only a heralds to unveil it's content, we must make haste to find whom ever it is and bring her to our side before they find her first.
*** Heralds witches are know to awaken their powers more earlier than other witches because of the huge amount of nature's energy they posses, a single heralds witch is equal to thirty powerful witches, but they are also know to poses extreme kind nature and are usually adverse to violence, which are said to be their weakness, I think her powers might be sealed or suppressed which makes her not less than a normal human, we would be working towards chanelling ourselves after the ritual tomorrow.
*** I have said all's that's important concerning tomorrow's ritual, I would now be handing the podium over to sir pascal, and soon ayana walked down and pascal resumed the podium, as you all have heard from the high priestess, we have a lot of work to do, the presence of heralds descendant, means the war is getting close and the dark witches are already preparing, I hope everyone especially the council members of the vampire and wolves races are doing their best in training the selected soilders of each races, it's important we know that things are beginning to get real, no stone should be left unturned, the unveiling of the scroll can either be the beginning or end of these war as the actual cause of it was written there , which means it would do us good to find heralds descendant first .
*** To the next topic , I know we all know that the shape shifters have been amassing alot of weird abilities due to the presence of a new powerful dark witch whose name is still unknown, I have also heard she has the powers, the last powerful dark witch possessed, whom Susan killed 15 years ago.
*** Everyone turned to look at me and I gladly glared at them, my mother was always a sensitive topic for me, as it always reminds me the hatred I held towards those dark witches and shape shifters, can we give back the attention to sir pascal I said snearing at them, and they all looked away.
*** We have sent spies to infiltrate their towns, and we are waiting for their message, so as to know what we are dealing against with, everyone is important to the cause at the moment, as one wrong mistake and Eve can go wrong, which is why those that were sent over to spy on them have all been sworn to a blood oath , that the minute they were discovered they were to take their own lives.
*** These is all we have for today's meeting, we hope the ritual tomorrow goes as planned, you all are dismissed, and everyone stood up leaving the meeting room, I stood up to leave only to be called back by sir pascal, I knew the annoying elder had a lot of things to say to me if especially he had been talking with my father, we walked down the halls of the inner chambers, these part of the school were built underground, that if you are not a high member , you would never know such a place existed, I hope you understand that what ever your father is doing is for everyone's good, he has said I should tell you to not look for him, he said you would sooner than later understand why he gave you the position of the council member .
*** Sir pascal you do not need to sugar coat things for me , I also know the type of man my father is , it's good you know then, I heard about your human mate , what are your plans for her, I stopped pausing to look at him?, you don't have to worry about that Dante everyone knows how difficult it is for a vampire to find a mate, does my father know about it? I asked him trying to read his expression, and he laughed , you think because his not here that there aren't people reporting everything about you to him, of course he knows , you should be more concerned about how you are going to let your mate in on all this, make sure you are sure about things before procedding, he tapped me on the shoulder before walking away.
*** I walked out of the inner chambers and walked into the School halls , only to bump into someone, I was already in a bad mood and was ready to curse on whoever it was, I looked to find a girl staring at me, am so so..rry, she said stammering, I watched her pick up her books , look where you are walking next time I grumpily said to her while walking away, that I had all patience for my Emily doesn't mean I have them for other humans.
*** I looked at the infamous Dante , who I had just bumped into , I knew the reason why I was here, I was tasked to get close to him to put it evenly , to seduce him, they way they discribed his looks did him no justice, the man looks were out of these world , even with his cold and overbearing personality, he could capture thousands of souls, I had recently took over this body, a girl called Tina or something, it's been already four days since I had gotten here , and had been planning on how to successfully make contact with him.
*** I walked into the library where the rest of us spies secretly met , we choose here because it made us look incouscipsious, there were a total number of 21 of us, if the school knew how we grew in number everyday with each one of us assigned to different tasks , they would cry blood, we exchanged information on what we found out about the school here, it made things easier for us, we have recently received news that high profieled member of each races were received here yesterday, and we have been snooping around to find out the reason, it the task itself seemed more harder to achieve, soon we exchanged the new information we received, which was to take over Dante 's girlfriends body , the mission was to be executed this night.
*** This was going to be a difficult one , I said looking down at the contents of the letter, I wouldn't believe that Dante would leave his girlfriend without any protection, but the supreme one had already declared this were to be done since me getting close to Dante with his cold personality would be more difficult, since it seemed he has intents on making the girl his mate, we means I had to discard this ney acquired body for Dante's mate, I was excited and scared at the same time, the difficulty of these tasks seemed to be increasing daily, but we had already taking a blood oath with our families on the line and there was no going back about it.
*** Today's classes were a bit tiring, because every teacher almost entered for classes today, bella too looked very bored and tired and we kept out exchanging glances each time another teacher came into class , whenever we thought the previous was going to be the last one, I sat down like a long of wood almost about to cry by the number of homeworks we received today, it felt like they wanted to drain us from the rest we got from the one week vacation, I had noticed Dante had a habbit of missing classes, which I would be very curious to know his performance st the end of the school term.
*** I walked down towards the dinning hall with bella and Monica, to see Dante walking towards me, I really didn't want him to show off how close we were as everyone one would know we were officially together, Emily he called and held me , I didn't know what he did because bella and Monica suddenly gave excuses leaving the two of us, I have never seen in the dinning hall before I asked him?, of course I came to see you he said walking me towards the table, keep things down I whispered close to him.
