Rising Shadows [Dark Huntress, Scarsmate, and Redkite]

[Scars Mate]

Rivera turned slowly towards Rowen.

'Whet makes you think that?' She asked slowly, but she had a gripping fear she just couldn't shake.

[RedKite]

Septimus winces slightly and speeds off, truly shaken.

[Dark Huntress]

Rowen swallowed, this was not how she'd expected to be found out: telling everyone. "Because I was in town today, dressed as a maid," her mother gave her an alarmed look. She continued shakily. "And I went to a perfume shop. The lady there, she was...perverted, something was terribly off about her. If she was a witch, she could hide the scent if potions and reach any ingredients she would need."

Rhavyn stepped forward. "You were dressed as a made?" She asked, stepping forward. Rowen shrugged innocently and nodded.

[Scars Mate]

'That's not important,' Rivera said to her friend, eyes still focused on Rowen. 'Can you show us this place? And did you see any evidence that she was a witch- that's the most important part.'

[Dark Huntress]

Rowen nodded. "I know exactly where it is." Her voice quavered unwillingly, "she was just...strange. She sounded a lot older than she looked." She blushed as Ramzy's fingers brushed around her wrist. "No," he hissed and move towards her mother.

[RedKite]

Out in the forest, Septimus comes to a stop by a half-rotten log, he sits with his head in his hands, gaze blurred by tears. 'Why must the past come back to haunt me...' he thinks. He scowls at the moon, white and perfect in the sky and snarls.

[Scars Mate]

Rotan cleared his throat, bringing the attention back to him.

'As- ah- controversial as your trip may have been, we have slightly more important matters to deal with. First of all, does anyone know where Issabelle is? I'd imagine she was shaken up by the event the other night, but we still require her presence...'

[Dark Huntress]

Rowen presumed he meant the vampire. A quick glance shot over at her mother beside her who slight shook her head. "I haven't seen her," Daelyn offered, "nor my family."

Ramzy shrugged. "I haven't either."

Rowen gave him a playful look. Should you have? her eyes asked merrily and he laughed softly an shook his head.

[Scars Mate]

Rotan sighed.

'I hope the council don't to angry about that,' he muttered, his brow creasing. Rivera carefully slipped her hand into his. His fingers closed around it gratefully, and he visibly relaxed.

'So we have to find them. Perhaps not today; it's too late at night, and that's when they're most powerful. Tomorrow, first thing. You can all pick a room and stay here, to make it easier,' she said, her eyes stubborn.

[Dark Huntress]
