Chapter 5 ENCOUNTER WITH THE TWELVE SISTERS

After a week of Tiana and Hayley working on the designs for the modeling company, the company loved the designs, they offered Hayley another contract and she taught this was the ancestors way of blessing her hard work.

Hayley was on her way to ALL TIME MODELING COMPANY to sign a new contract worth 2million dollars. She was driving from Louisiana going towards downtown when she suddenly saw the road fill with blood and without so much thought, she stepped on the brake of the car bringing the car to a halt. Panting heavily, she stare at the road but there was no sign of blood again. She instantly knew that someone has casted an illusion spell. She stepped out of the car walking towards an empty and lonely road, she stopped just where she had previously saw the blood, knelt on the ground, both her hands on the ground, her eyes closed and she began to cast a spell.

" Obice! Mirus sinicus!

Moenia sursum!

Inteo clostrum expello!"

Her eyes immediately turned yellow, and she could again see the blood, leading her into the bush. She began to follow the blood, leading her deeper into the bush, Hayley didn't stop going further nor did she doubt her powers for a second, she kept going deeper until she came across a circle of witches, a young man was chained to the ground, red candles lit round him, several kinds of herbs use for performing binding spell was scattered around him, as Hayley move closer, she was shocked to see it was doctor Kelvin.

" Doctor!! "

She shouted, drawing the attention of the witches who were performing a ritual. They were five of them, an older woman who seems to be older than 80years, following a middle age woman probably in her sixties and three other young girls within the age of 25 to 30, their hair was all colored red and they were all wearing a black rope.

They turn to Hayley, obviously surprise to see her.

" Young girl! Who are you, and how did you get here?"

The oldest woman ask, sitting on large stone on the floor, holding her walking stick.

" Master look! She crossed the boundary spell!"

One of the younger girls called the attention of the older one pointing towards where a line was drawn, Hayley is standing in between the line, they watched closely as their jaw almost dropped to the ground.

" Young girl, obviously you are a witch! But you are not of these coven, how are you able to break the boundary spell?"

The middle age woman ask calmly.

" What are you doing to him, let him go and I promise I won't disturb whatever ritual you are performing"

" What we do with him is none of your concern, I won't ask nicely twice, leave here right now or even your coven won't be able to save you"

" Am sorry if I sound disrespectful, but he is my friend......"

"He is not your friend!! Do not speak such word ever again! No witch hunter is a friend of a witch, go back to your coven and mind your business!"

The middle age woman spoke, she was getting worked up, her facial expression suddenly getting dark. Hayley was about to speak when her eyes suddenly caught the object on the floor, an instrument used to project excruciating pain on an enemy.

" Ooh mine!! Is that the devil's wipe?!! You are using it to torture him, ooh my God, your coven must be the most heartless have ever come across!"

" Young lady if only you know what he is capable of doing to our kind, you won't feel such compassion for him"

One of the younger girls spoke, her eyes fierce and wild.

" I know what he is?"

" You do!!"

The oldest woman seems surprise as she stare at Hayley intensely.

" Please just let him go, he doesn't even know of his powers, please......."

" Young girl! Am running out of patience, leave now!!"

The oldest woman shouted as her focus was on Hayley, she open her Palm wide, throwing a fireball at Hayley, it landed on Hayley's chest, but there is no effect at all. They all look at each other, surprised. No witch has ever been able to withstand their masters fireball, but standing right before them is a young girl with gut and strength, their master stare at her once again and the thought of someone special comes to her mind.

" You must be a very powerful witch, reminding me of my daughter Maria. Which circle are you from?"

The master question, her eyes still piercing at Hayley.

" Am from the moonlight circle and you can stop trying to attack me, I can't be defeated."

Hayley brag, her face curl into a devious smile. There were five powerful witches standing right before her from one of the most powerful coven in new Orleans and yet Hayley seems unshaken.

" The moonlight coven! No wonder, always devious and ready to stab even your own kind!!"

The middle age woman snorted, Hayley could feel the hatred in her voice but wasn't aware of the history between her coven and theirs. Before she could even make a move, the middle age woman stretch both her hands incanting a spell to bind Hayley.

"Terra Mora vantis!

Quo incandis

Terra Mora vandis!

Quo incandis destude!!"

The more she cast the spell, the closer she was moving to Hayley, her eyes, dark and glowing with fire. Hayley stretch her hands reversing the spell with full concentration.

" Sanguinatum planicium!

Sanguinatum planicium!

Leigheas brontin

Leigheas brontin!!"

Hayley's eyes had turn yellow, there were vein popping from her neck, even as the middle age woman kept chanting and moving closer, Hayley was also moving closer, it was obvious the woman was getting weaker. The three young girls bound their hands supplying her with their own powers, despite it all, it was having no effect on Hayley, the four of them were getting weaker and yet Hayley was still strong chanting and reversing the spell back.

Blood began to drip from their nose, then suddenly they began to fall down to the ground one after the other.

Seeing them all down, Hayley stopped, getting ready for whatever attack the oldest woman might decide to use on her. The old woman stood up with the support of her stick, staring intently at Hayley for some minute, she finally spoke.

" I knew there was only one explanation why you were able to cross the boundary spell, you have the blood of the twelve sisters in you. When my daughter Maria was pregnant, there were so many prophecy about the baby. Some called her a redemption to all the witches, some said she was death itself, some said she was going to end the witch race but of everything said, the truth remains she will be the most powerful witch ever heard of. When the moonlight coven killed my daughter Maria, I taught they also killed the baby, but standing here and watch you perform such power, no doubt the baby lives. You are drawn to the witch hunter, I understand you can't stop yourself, it the force of the universe, but believe me he will be your doom. Allow me end him once and for all!!"

She spoke her eyes constantly piercing at Hayley.

" I understand how desperate you want to kill this man, but lying with my Mother's name, that too low, even for someone at your age. No one will kill him as long as I live, you will have to kill me first!!"

And without any form of warning, Hayley close her eyes, channeling her powers to the old woman, she quickly bind her before she would even realize what is happening and rushed towards Kelvin.

" Kelvin! Can you hear me! Hey! Wake up!!"

He slowly opened his eyes, they were weak and he cough out loud, blood pouring out from his mouth.

" You still have the devil's wipe inside you, stay still, I will take you to the car!"

She supports him up with both hands, he grimace in pain as more blood was dripping from his mouth, they were both moving at a very slow pace, Hayley knew it only sooner before the master is able to unbind herself, she quickly carried Kelvin on her back walking as fast as she could.
