Eve pushed herself off the bed. She drew her powers back to her and gasped briefly in relief. Then she turned to Anya. “Hide, darling,” she whispered. “I’ll face him.”

" no eve." she said but it as too late, mavrice had unlocked the door himself. mindfairy after all. " no more hiding girly"
Eve quickly stood up and pushed Anya defensively behind her. “Stay away from us!” she snarled.
mavrice smirked, grabing eves wrists along with anyas. " ets go rosalind wants you"
Eve yanked and tried to free herself so she could free Anya. “Let go!” Her eyes glowed as she tried to use her magic on him.
eves magic didnt do much " a min fairy against another mind fairy cancels out" he said and dragged them along.
Eve panicked. She looked over at Anya worriedly.

Farah was storming back toward the school.
“You’re not going to make it,” Rosalind called after her. “You can’t stop what’s coming.”
Farah ignored her and kept going.
anya knew her skin was burning the man so why didnt he stop?! she watched as the were brought out onto the field and the warm silky feeling of warmth brushed over them. she could see farah rushing to the school, but her fear kept her from yelling. now she looked forward, the stone circle, then at eve, god she wanted to hold her. anya mouthed the words 'i love you'
Eve fought every step the Anya's father took. As he dragged them toward the Stone Circle, she saw her mother with her back to them, heading towards Alfea. Mavrice must've taken them just wide of Farah's peripheral vision. She began to feel horribly sick, but that didn't stop her from yelling out as loud as she could: "MOM!"
Farah whipped around. "Eve?! Anya!" She used her magic to force Mavrice's grip on them to loosen, giving Eve time to jerk away from his hold and pull Anya with her out of the way so Farah had a clear shot at him.
"I told you not to touch them." Farah's words were like razors slicing through the air. She used her magic to shove Mavrice to the ground while maintaining a sizable distance away from him.
mavrice fell " anya! listen to your father, come here!"
anya felt the pull of her fathers words. " no… no!" she covered her ears like a child. her father had used his magic on her to get what he wanted when she was young, he wouldn't do it now.
Eve wrapped her arms around Anya and helped her cover her ears. "Leave her alone!" Eve cried, tears stinging in her eyes.
Farah unleashed a barrage of magic against Mavrice, pushing him further away from Eve and Anya as she did.
anya watched her father tumble an fall, calling rosalind for help.
Once Mavrice was a safe distance away from the girls, Farah ran to them. She knelt at Eve's side and cupped her daughter's face in her hands. "Are you both okay? He didn't hurt you, did he?"
" just our wrists.." anya mumbed, the blooms of bruises showing on her wrists
Farah's eyes widened as she saw the bruises on Anya's wrists. "Eve?" she asked. Hesitantly, Eve held up her wrists too. Hers were slightly worse than Anya's because of how hard she was fighting against Mavrice's hold. Farah's face suddenly became stony, and she flooded with more anger than she'd ever felt in her entire life. "Get back to the school and find Saul and Ben," she instructed. "I can hold them off until you all get back. But hurry."
anya noded, taking eves gently and running.
Eve stumbled after her, wincing as Anya's fingers brushed her still sensitive wrists. "Wait," she called to Anya. She turned and ran back to her mother, wrapping her arms around her tightly. "Promise me that you'll be okay," she whispered.
Farah hugged her back quickly and looked into her eyes firmly. "I promise. I love you."
"I love you too," Eve replied as she let Anya pull her away.
With the girls gone, Farah turned her focus back to Mavrice. Oddly, Rosalind was no where in sight. "It looks like your strategist abandoned you," Farah called to him, standing a few feet away, not trusting him enough to get any closer. "One-on-one is a much fairer fight, don't you think?"
" come on eve," anya said
mavrice growled " i just wanted my kid back."
Eve kept looking back over her shoulder, which slowed her running. "I'm coming," she promised.

"Having a child is a privilege. One that you lost and didn't even deserve in the first place," Farah stated. "She showed me the scars, you know. What kind of monster would do such a thing?"
" what scars?" he asked, it seemed he was faking not remembering
Farah's rage boiled. "Don't give me that. You know what you did. That girl deserved so much better than being manipulated and hurt by someone like you!"
" you really believe the girl raised by rosalind?"
"Yes," Farah answered. "I do. While you were off who-knows-where doing who-knows-what."
" your just as gullible as rosalind said." he sneered and threw an attack at farah.
Farah's eyes widened, and she deflected the attack. "What are you talking about?" she asked, stepping backwards to create more distance between them.
