<strong>Tabitha</strong><br/><br/>Tabitha's heart was pounding painfully as they drove up outside the Vicar's home, the pain from inside the house a stench that she could not ignore. Chloe instructed them to follow her behind the house and with a sigh of resignation she exited the car and followed her sisters. Noticing the privacy of the backyard, Tabitha thanked the Gods for small favors, at least they had a chance of not attracting the attention of others behind the tall fence.<br/><br/>Her brows raised and she turned a sarcastic grin on Chloe as her older sister shouted insults to the Daevas. "Don't hold back sis." she muttered with a grin and braced herself for whatever was coming.<br/><br/>Hell broke out suddenly, fire streaking toward them so fast she hardly had time to gasp in surprise. As Chloe moved her behind her safely Tabitha took a breath and chanted,<em>"All you shadows that mean us harm, let the power of three bring you into solid form. Harm be done to all shadows with form, by the power of three let the spell be done."</em><br/><br/>The Daevas came into clear view then, their horrible forms solid before them and their evil choking Tabitha.<br/><br/><em>"Tabitha let those bastards have it."</em><br/><br/>Without a word she let her rage overtake her body. She felt the burning violence within her body boil and spill over until she was flinging fireball after fireball at the three Daevas. Sweat broke out all over her body and her long thick hair fell loose from its knot, blowing out wildly around her face and neck as if alive. Her screams of rage were inhuman and when she killed one demon she laughed wickedly.<br/><br/>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br/><br/><strong>Melinda</strong><br/><br/>Melinda practically skipped to the car as they left the boutique and headed for battle. She thumbed through her latest spell scribblings, picturing all sorts of horrible painful things to torture their enemies with. She clapped her hands gleefully as they arrived at the Vicar's home and skipped all the way to the backyard beside her sisters.<br/><br/>"Perfect battlefield back here!" she laughed as they entered the large area and found themselves alone and waiting for the Daevas to show themselves. Melinda laughed loudly and cheered Chloe on as her sister shouted insults, "You go baby, tell those slimy bastards!"<br/><br/>Melinda fought slightly as Chloe pushed her behind, hating to be protected even if she might need it. Immediately she chanted with her sisters however, watching as the Daevas shimmered into solid form before them.<em>"All you shadows that mean us harm, let the power of three bring you into solid form. Harm be done to all shadows with form, by the power of three let the spell be done."</em><br/><br/>Without hesitating Melinda ran forward toward the Daevas on the far side of the yard, her body in fighting stance as she approached the evil being. He swung at her head but Melinda was ready, ducking and instantly jumping into the air, using her levitation to lift her several feet above the Daevas. She kicked her powerful thigh outward and slammed her foot so hard into the head of her enemy he stumbled backward, shocked that such a small female could pack a powerful kick. Melinda took her opportunity and ripped her favorite dagger from the sheath on her ankle and stabbed it viciously into his chest, twisting it cruelly as she stared into his shocked faced. The demon exploded and she looked over just in time to observe Chloe destroy another Daevas with his own fireball and Tabitha take out the last with a fireball of her own. She shivered slightly as she looked at Tabitha, the evil she sometimes glimpsed in her sister showing clearly in that moment.<br/><br/>Melinda shook off the strange fear and walked to her sisters with a bright grin, "That was fun!" she announced and sheathed her dagger once more, after giving it a kiss for thanks.<br/><br/>Seeing the Vicar broke her heart and she stayed quiet as they gathered the broken man and made their way to the car out front. Once in the back seat beside the man Melinda began to run her hands over him, trying to assess the damage done.<br/><br/><em>"Melinda how is the Vicar, can you tell his emotional state by touch yet, or is his shock interfering?"</em><br/><br/>It was as if a thick blanket were wrapped around his spirit, keeping him from her and Melinda probed deeper but to no avail. "I cannot tell Chloe, something is keeping him blocked but I don't think it is shock. It is dark, almost smothering." she mumbled as she kept trying to comfort the Vicar hoping she could see something of what he had seen today that could help them.<br/><br/>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br/><br/><strong>Tabitha</strong><br/><br/>She could not catch her breath and her body felt like it was crashing in on her. Tabitha always fought the wild after effects of letting herself go fully into her magic and today was no different. Once more in the car she continuously shook her head, trying to clear the rage and fire from her mind so she could calm down.<br/><br/><em>"Tabitha call Lewis and let him know we have the Vicar and we are taking him to our house to keep him safe until the threat is over. If he wants to meet us their we can fill him in on what is going on."</em><br/><br/>Nodding, Tabitha pulled out her phone, wincing when she saw that the restaurant had called three times, and dialed Lewis. "Lewis? Tabitha here, we have the Vicar and we are taking him to our house, can you meet us?" she explained quickly, her voice thick with exhaustion and worry as she nervously ran her fingers through her now tangled hair.
