Well this was a very unfortunate turn of events that was for sure but while he was panicking on the inside, he kept his face calm.  Sighing a bit he helped Mina to her feet.  Opening his mind he called one of his most talented healers to his side.  The Fairy popped up beside him and smiled.<br/>"Greetings Syn...oh dear."<br/>She said as she looked at the humans on the floor and then to the human that Syn was holding.  The fairy waved her hand in front of her face as she looked at the parents.<br/>"Whew.  They smell like rotting garbage."<br/>"Just heal them please."<br/>The female nodded as she stood a good distance back and healed the two adults but gagged in the process.  Once they were healed, Abigail looked at Mina and gave her a light healing.<br/><br/>"Still, I'm surprised that this spell is in place."<br/>"You know it?"<br/>"Of course.  It's high level for humans but child's play for demons."<br/>Syn turned his attention to the father and nodded to Abigail.<br/>"Abigail.  Head on home, I'll be chatting with you later."<br/>Syn then hooked an arm around Mina.  Standing up with her he looked at her.<br/>"I've changed my mind.  You'll be staying at my home.  I'll be taking you to school from now on.  I will not be leaving you in a home run by these two.  So, if you would please, go up to your room and pack.  Sasha."<br/>Sasha morphed out of Mina's shadow like always but was now baring some nasty fangs to Mina's parents.<br/><br/>"Sasha.  Take Mina to her room and help her."<br/>As he said this his eyes flashed for a moment, like someone had flicked a light switch on and off behind his eyes.  Syn wrapped Mina in a shadow barrier.  Unless the power was greater than his, nothing would be touching her in terms of magic.  When Mina was no longer in sight, Syn turned his attention to the father and gave his own smile.<br/>"Do remember human.  There is more than one way to kill you. I can't physically harm you or your mate.  Your school, your students, and your livelihood are fair game.  Sure killing you would be a lot more enjoyable, but putting you in a padded cell for the rest of your long life would be just as good.  May want to keep that in mind.  I have a LOT more resources than you do."<br/>Giving him a half assed bow he looked at the maids and offered them an apologetic smile.<br/>"I'm sorry ladies.  If any of you would like to come to my home to help serve Mina, you're more than welcome?"
