Alexis and Anna ran into their treehouse fort scared. What did this mean? The girls had not the slightest idea what a war would mean. "So what do we do?" Anna asked. Alexis shrugged, "How about we pretend we didn't hear my mother at all? It's an adult war not ours." Alexis said thinking. "Then again, adults at war could possibly effect us." She continued. Anna looked further confused, "So are you saying this war thingy could possibly go to us?!" She exclaimed looking at Alexis still confused. Then one of the sixth graders they knew came over, "What are you doing now planning an attack at recess?" He asked the two girls. Anna pipped up glaring, "For your information, Nate, we were discussing private girl matters! Get. OUT." Nate smirked and walked away. Alexis got up and chased after him, "Look leave us alone you're so annoying." Alexis spat. Nate clicked his fingers igniting the spark making the flame in his hand grow bigger, "Really wish to mess with me Alexis?" He taunted. Alexis glared and kicked him in the groin. Nate yelped and fell to his knees his voice higher pitched, "Not funny, Alexis!" He groaned. Alexis put her hands on her hips and grinned, "Then leave us alone and remember you may be only twelve but hurting me is pretty bad on your record." She reminded him skipping back to the treehouse. Anna burst out laughing as Alexis climbed up.
"Good job!"
"Thanks." Alexis said smiling and bwing. She sat down on the bean bag. "So, war. We all know the war that happened against Mevolent, maybe this is similar. Momma has been coming home later and later everyday up until she had my sister." Alexis said. Anna sat too looking at Alexis, "The Sanctuaries don't go to war against each other do they?" Alexis shock her head, "No! Never! That's beyond stupid of them to! They exsist to keep the mortals safe from lunatics and to keep the magical community safe too. Why would they go to war against each other?" Then Alexis thought for a moment. "Wel..." She began, "I heard my mother saying that Sult was going to Ireland..." Alexis said. Anna widened her eyes, "Ravel is Grand Mage there! Maybe they are mad at him?" The two girls sat and conteplated.
Alexis sat in her room drawing. Her mother was making dinner and Olivia was asleep, her father playing Mario Kart. Alexis picked up the black coloured pencil and began to colour in the black cat. Then she heard her mother's voice and she ran downstairs to eat. "Dinner?" She asked. Her mother nodded and set the plates on the table. "Eat." Zafira said and she went over to the living room. "Javier earth to Javier!" Zafira called. Javier jumped up and paused the game,
"Zaf I was going to win!" He whined.
"Shut up. Dinner." Zafira snapped and went into the dinning room sitting down beside Alexis. Alexis herself was finished eating her potatoes, her father sat down too.
"Momma," Alexis began. "Can we go to see the triplets?" She asked. Zafira shook her head, "No sweetie we aren't entirely welcome in Ireland at this time."
"Why?" Alexis asked.
Zafira sighed, "Because tensions are running between all of us internationally, with the Surpreme Council and the death of former Grand Mage Strom we kind of ticked off the Irish.. So it is best wait until things smooth over ok?" Alexis nodded. "Would the Sanctuaries ever go to war?" She questioned her mother. Zafira looked slightly stunned, "Um...well, yeah. They could possibly. Though I highly doubt we will as we are all perfectly capable of solving the issues at hand without violence." Zafira said. Alexis nodded and finished her steak. She was so going to tell Anna this. Javier looked up, "So they really did find Strom dead?" Zafira nodded, "Yes, he was found in his chambers at the Irish Sanctuary. Tanith Low is the possible killer and we also found out the death of Nocturnal, he was in the holding cells. England caught Tanith but she escaped and I truly believe Sanguine was behind it. And then someone stole a dagger off Elder Starke of Germany, so things are fishy." Zafira muttered. Alexis listened interested. Nothing else was said, boy she would enjoy telling Anna this.
