Tension
Bells paused his face drop from his smile. His whole domainer changed In a spilt second. There could tell he was being talked to over farspeech. After a second, he straightens up his uniform. He finally looks around at Abigail and Tally have he had been training, just after lunch. Raelle was still in her meeting.
“I need to relay something with you guys.”
“what is it”.
“Raelle has just informed me about my new order. I am to protect you both as all cost. I need your lesson schedule.”
“Raelle gave you orders”.
“yes, I am a cession witch. And Raelle is my leader. And right know that all you need to know. Unless it affects how I protect you both.”
“what changed, Bells” Abigail’s say a little sad of them changing so quickly into want is been dubbed as high Atlantic attitude.
He softens only a little, “new information has come to light, which is bad for all witch kind. There this thing called the witch plague. It made to kill witches and I do mean all witches. 1% and above.”
“that could be everyone.”
“that the point, cleanse the world just become of a story. Told years ago. Which may or may not be true.”
“we can discuss this later, with Libba” Abigail says.
“to night, Libba and her unit are joining us”. Tally says looking at Bells.
“that reminds me, we need to find Libba at once. There is someone she should meet. There should be here within the hour.”
There both looked at each I little worried all of a sudden. But followed his orders. All of them started heading to the food area. Tally using her sight to see that she was in fact there.

She had copy just in case, she was attack or there take it. meanly the Camarilla but she couldn’t roll out the army as well. the only reason she wasn’t forced to join was because of her blood line.
Olly open the door.
“Bearkiller, why are you hear.”
She straightens her clothes, “we at war, get your gear on, you’re coming with me to fort Salem. I will explain all after you get dressed.”
She steps inside as Olly rushes of upstairs. She walked into the living area.
“you might be Scylla. I have heard a lot about you from Raelle.”
“I hope all good this” she fires back.
“I am Bearkiller a council member here in the Cession. Raelle has asked for you to come with me. Even if you say no., You are still apart of the Cession. But this would make it official. In alder eyes and with the human laws”.
Scylla moved a little her back has been in pain all day. “I haven’t travel since I came here. I not sure if I could handle it.”
“is that the only reason” she didn’t say the last bit, a little worried of her answer.
“yes, I wanted to see my girl for over the last two weeks.”
“we can help with the pain for travel”.
Just then Olly joined them. suited in his full military uniform. Holding a new pair in his hands.
“this is for you Scylla.”
Without waiting of her response turned to Bearkiller.
“what going on.”
She looks him straight in the eyes. “the witch plague has been deployed. that attack that killed over 3000 people was their test. We are at war, openly.”
He moves back and sit beside Scylla, how holding the new uniform in her arms.
“can you guys please explain what this witch plague is and why I am hold this uniform.”
“Raelle has informed me that your paperwork is going though. Your be apart of my army. and with a transfer officer within Alder army. So, you can be with your girls. As for the witch plague, it designed to kill all witches or descendants of a witch. Cleanse there say. We should then cleanse.”
“that a lot, Olly can you help be get changed. I want to be wearing it. on my arrival”
“you’re coming”.
“yes, if it means I can finally help stop the Camarilla or anyone that hunts us. Then I am all in.”
Olly quickly helped get Scylla dressed out of her normal clothes into army gear. Olly also placed braces on her legs, under her trousers for support.
“do there hurt”.
“no, there fine, thank you. Your very good at making thing. At this” pointing to her leg braces, “I can never thank you, enough.”
“you never have too. Just be your best version of yourself. Now let’s go. I always been interested in see fort Salem.”

All of them stomp their feet, there hand behind there back. But know one said anything. All of them could feel the tension within the air. A limbo pulled up. Two soldiers step out both in brown and grey uniform. And opened the side door.
Thelma Bearkiller was the first to climb out. Bells step forward.

As all three headed of one of the soldiers followed right behind not saying a word. Know one questioned this.
Olly was the second to step out.
“Bells it great to meet you again. I hope this rust bucket is treating you well.”
“Olly, you mad man. It is. This is Abigail, Tally and Libba.”
He looked at all of them. with a smile he turned and leans back into the car.
“are you ready.”
“now but let’s do this”.
Clear fully Olly help moved Scylla out of the car. Once she was standing out of the car. Scylla held onto Olly wincing as her knees threaten to collapse. With a heavy breathing looks aways. Only been forced her look a different way with a hand under her chin.
She looks, there standing before her. Libba, she could tell she was the brink of crying.
“you’re here”.
Tear rolled down Scylla cheek she didn’t even noticed she was crying until Libba wiped her tears away.
