Chapter 61- Rise From The Dead

VanderVall Academy- Thursday 12th April, 2018-

Justin's Office- 6.23am

Justin is sat in his office with his paperwork placed over his desk, pen in hand and a glass of blood at the left side that he has been sipping on as he daydreams of a memory from a few years back of him and Ophelia.

Flashback- Humble Road Park , December 6th,2003

Justin is sat in his car in the Park car park as he watches four year old Kathryn sat in the swing with Seth stood behind her pushing the swing. As Justin sits there he wishes more than anything that that could be him for just one day, to hear Kathryn call him "dad" and to see her smile at him or want to come to him when she is sad. The car door opens and Ophelia gets into the back seats.

"You can't be here, if they see you they will kill her"Ophelia reminds him of the consequences of if she is found

"I just wanted to see her" Justin replies keeping his eyes on his daughter from inside of the car

"I know but we can't chance it" She tells him knowing that even though they both just want to take her back to them it would be far to dangerous.

"Then why are you here? Surely the same rule for me should be applied to you too" Justin pipes up not liking the fact he is being told not to come around when she is always lurking in the shadows"

"It's her birthday where else would i be" Ophelia smiles while watching her daughter playing away

"Four years have come and gone and still no change. Will we ever get our daughter for ourselves?" Justin points out to her having found every moment of those four years excruciating

"One day we will get her to ourselves"Ophelia promised herself not willing to back down

"We are nowhere near further than what we were last year or the year before" Justin spits out thinking about how they are failing

" It's taking longer for me to work my way up the ranks, it's hard having a soul and killing innocent people" Ophelia reminds him of what she has to do

"It's our daughter, if it were me i would have done anything" Justin says to her.

Ophelia and Justin continue to stare out of the car window at Kathryn and smile.

"I'm going to sell my soul" Ophelia pipes up knowing it is the only way she can continue their plan

"You can't sell your soul to them, are you insane. You could turn on our daughter, they could make you turn on her and actually kill her" Justin yells in disapproval of the idea

"Not to them"Ophelia replies and looks at Justin "To you"

"Why would you do that?" Justin asks her not understanding

"So that if i ever lose sight on what i have to do you only have to say the words to remind me and me not having my soul will make me feel less guilty about killing them all" Ophelia explains to him

"You're a witch Ophelia not a vampire. Would it even work?" Justin reminds her that she is not like him and it wouldn't be as easy.

"I made a spell that will extract my soul from my body" Ophelia fills him in, Justin turns around and looks at her concerned "Now don't start worrying about me now"

"You know i always worried about you Ophelia, you were my best friend" Justin reminds her of how much he valued their friendship

" And you were mine" Ophelia agrees with him "send Sarah my love, you two really were meant for each other even if for a long time you didn't see yourself as worthy of love"
