Chapter 7
Calista open her eyes and watch the Fog begin to dissipate. She stand and walk out of the Fog with Aquarius at her side. Meditation wasn't so bad when she was in the Fog. It was peaceful in an odd way especially when you could breathe and feel the heat on your face from the sun.
"Have you been enjoying yourself?" Aquarius ask as she take note of Calista being more chipper than usual. It was odd but Aquarius never question Calista mood swings. There was finally something to help her cope with her own personal problems.
Calista smile. "Actually I have."
Aquarius nod her head proud of this moment. Calista was stubborn and not easy to work with. Aquarius sigh before she set her lips in a grim line. "You will soon learn to meditate alone."
Calista cock her head to the side curiously. "Why?"
"I will not always be around." Aquarius reply before swallowing. She continues to walk towards the back door but Calista hand around her wrist stops her.
"You will tell me if something is wrong right?"
Aquarius cross her arms. "There is nothing wrong, Calista."
"Then why are you getting all defensive right now?" Calista ask her eyes narrow. "You only cross your arms when you're aggravated or worried."
Aquarius inhale a deep breath before blowing out slowly. "You watch me too much."
"That's not the point." Calista roll her eyes to avoid being embarrassed. "You think I don't see you and Erik whispering among yourselves. I'm not great on secrets okay? So, when you're ready to tell me what's going on then maybe I will less pissed."
Aquarius open her mouth to say something but quickly shut it back before licking her lips nervously. She didn't want to lie. Calista grit her teeth before storming pass the other Rein.
Aquarius sigh and run her fingers through her hair in aggravation. "Where are you Felix?"

Felix groans when someone is shoving water in his face. "Druk." They sneer. Felix shake his head thinking it could be poison. The man punches him in the face and walk away. Felix bawl his fist and notice his ankles is chained against the floor and his shirt is missing.
His ear perks when he hear the two men exchanging words in a low conversation. They keep every sentence short and it was in a language Felix didn't understand. He wipe his bloody lip and the man walk back and grunt. "Druk." Felix arches in eyebrow in confusion. He didn't understand the language. The man shove the water in his face. Felix shake his head. "Druk n die?" Felix looks up with a glare he understood 'die' and he wasn't looking to die at this moment.
Another man comes behind Felix and forces him to drink. The water and green herbs falls down his throat. Felix tries to spat out the water but it was too late. His body becomes weak and he falls to the cold floor with a shudder. His vision become blurry as he watch the two men walk away closing the gate behind them.

Eleanor watches as Stella chops the vegetables before tossing them into the pan. Her white hair was pulled up in a ponytail and she was wearing running shorts with a t-shirt. Eleanor watches Scarlet sitting at the table while scrolling through her phone and Luna and Erik sitting on the couch in the living room watching a film.
"What are you thinking about?" Stella ask.
"How the hell did I end up here?" Eleanor look up. Stella arches her eyebrow in confusion and step closer. Scarlet pause wondering what the hell the Guardian Witch was getting at today. "You guys are my family and you're literally all I have and I'm happy." Eleanor finish with a smile.
