((poke))

Blossom smiled despite his stern look. "Its a long story of how we can be oppisites but yet be sisters..." Chase nods his agreement before speaking. "Would you two like anything?" he asked totally random but wanted something to do. blossom ignored him and continued. "The short version is that we were changed somehow...Even with all of us trying to solve this mystery we cant solve it.

"Changed, wait are you saying that you used to be... human?" Alkilai said with surprise. When he gained a nod of confirmation there was a moment of silence before he began to laugh. "Ha, ha, ha, yeah, that'll do it, now I'm REALLY surprised you two survived this long. If there's one thing Angels and Demons agree on, it's that they believe Humanity is beneath them, so they definitely wouldn't be happy about two "lowly humans" suddenly ascending up to the Sephiroth Tree... or down to the Qliphoth Tree in your sister's case." He stated, a bit sarcastically. However, after he had his laugh he went back to a serious look.

"Look, in all seriousness, turning a pure-blooded living human into an Angel or a Demon, even a low level one, takes some serious hocus pocus, who ever did this to you definitely didn't just do it on a whim. It may seem like I'm stating the obvious, but you girls were specifically targeted, and to figure out why I'm gonna need to hear the Long Version of your story." He said.

Blossom sighed "okay..."

It was a normal night all of us sitting in the living room together talking when someone knocked. Our father confused at who would be traveling at this hour, went to answer the door. A group of cloaked men were standing outside. Fathersmiled in greeting. "Hello," he said. "Do you need anything?" He asked politely. That's when someone I didnt see took their hood off and father paled. "Honey," he said without turning. "Please take the girls to their room." But before Willow, myself and mother could make it to the staricase, the group of men barged in. Father was fighting two of them as was Kyle and chase. There were to many of them...Mother told us to run but Willow and I got seperated. Someone grabbed Willow by her hair and she screamed. Father glanced, but only for a second...but I guess that was all it took. He fell and mother screamed, throwing herself at the men enraged. Kyle Tried to get to Willow but couldn't. Someone grabbed me next and I kicked the stranger hard. He cursed and smacked me, sending me to the ground. I screamed out in pain but was more worried about my sister who was being dragged away crying. Chase managed to get to me but was then pulled away. That is when Mother had fallen, distracted by me. I too was soon dragged away. Last thing I saw was both Kylle and Chase falling but unconscious, I could tell. Thats when the cloaked figure forced me down, I screamed as loud as I could hoping to get maybe the neighbors attention. They gagged me and bound me. That's when they...they injected a needle into my neck...It hurt so much and I tried to do something, anything but to no avail. I passed out to wake up later to see chase over me frowning, worried. He had to cut my gag and bonds. He told me not to move for the needle was still stuck in my neck. Chase pulled it out as gently as he could. I found out later from Kyle that this also hapened to Willow. I knew better than to ask questions when Kyle and chase took us away from that cursed housed. A few days later both Willow and myself had gone through painful changes. When we woke, Willow had looked like she does today.Purple hair, bat wings. Wilow spoke. "Sissy how come you have pink hair and angel wings?" With that one question I learned the horrible truth that my sister and I would start to grow apart...Ever since that day, we all blame ourselves for what happened.

Blossom had tears in her eyes when she finished. "We did not only lose our family, but we lost our humanity." Chase spoke. "I swore their parents that If anything should happen, Kyle and myself was to protect the girls at all costs..."

Alkilai began to think, going over the events he was just told in his head. "Hmm... that's quite the story. So you didn't actually see the attackers, but they were definitely after you, sounds like your parents were just collateral damage. On the other hand, you make it sound like your dad knew what these people wanted, trying to get you out of the way as soon as he recognized the ring leader." He mused out loud. "So the injection knocked you out, and they did the same thing with your sister huh... what about you Chase, did you see anything, like maybe catch a glimpse of what they were doing with them when they were out cold?" He inquired to the werewolf.

Chase smiled uneasily. "They injected a second needle into the arm...pink for blossom and kyle told me that there was a purple one in willow. It terrified of it because we didnt know the effects..." kyle came back. "Until later on when they um... changed..." chase continued. "We know because the needles were still in both of them after the group left."

"Pink and Purple liquid, I wonder what that could've been, some kind of potion maybe?" He mused out loud, but none of it made any sense to him so far. "...Hey, you said the Demon appeared from a book right, you think maybe I could take a look at it?"

Kyle shook his head playing with his cards as he thought. "Willow is the only one that can touch the book...Chase tried and he got burned, blossom tried and she nearly destroyed it but willow caught her and as for me I had to make a new deck of cards..." chase nodded rubbing his palm. Blossom smiled faintly. "Only if she hadn't come into her room at that point we would never had been in this mess." she said playing with her hair as she thought.

"I didn't say I had to touch the book, I just wanted to look at it, see if I recognized the writing or the cover, but if Willow's the only one who can touch the damn thing, I guess I'll just have to wait until she wakes up." Alkilai lamented, taking a chair that was flipped over and sat in it. "One last question, how did you guys know about me? I mean, I don't exactly advertise my services, so how the hell did you know I could help?" He inquired.

Willow had recently come down with the book and was listening. she was also intrigued by how they knew him. Blossom smiles. "Um...Well I have had Kyle and chase watch you for a while..." she said uneasily. Kyle and chase smile. Chase speaks. "We wanted a favor but they may not work if your aligned with the police..." Willow spoke up and walked into the room. "Why would that be a problem?" she asked and immeadietly they dropped the subject. Kyle notices the book and Looks at her sternly "put that down." willow does as he asked the title showing. 'Book of shadows' blossom looked like she wanted to destroy it but didnt watching Alkilai'sreaction.

"So, this is the book, huh." Alkilai said as he strolled over to the table the book was resting on. It was leather bound with the title in big black letters and a strange sigil below it. He reached out to touch it, his hand suddenly igniting with Holy Light and the "Book of Shadows" vibrating violently, dark and erratic whispers seemingly escaping from it. He quickly pulled his hand away from it, both it and the book returning to normal. "Yep definitely a grimoire." Alkilai deduced. "And a pretty damn powerful one at that, whoever you're dealing with, they're a major player, at least here on Earth." He examined the book further, there wasn't much else that could be inferred from the cover. "Mind flipping through it for me?" He requested.
