“Darling I’m going out for a while I need to pull some files from my office.”

“Can’t you get an assistant to do that for you?”

“These are files that are in my safe, no one has that combination but me.”

“Do you have to go now, I was hopi…” Richard didn’t get to finish before his wife gave him the evil eye and he dropped the issue completely. He knew that she was very determined to get her new position and she was not going to let him stand in the way at all. “Ok.”

Angela took the limo to her office building and went straight to her office. Thankfully it was late and there was no one in the office. She shrouded the windows with a spell that wouldn’t allow any one to see or hear what was about to happen in her office. Her voice took a loud booming, demonic, echo as she concentrated on the spell she needed. She opened her eyes and the walls bowed and then exploded. Giving sight to the realm she needed. She found the little obscure shop that belonged to an old friend of hers.

“Well, I see that knocking is still not part of…”

“I found her Morty.” she looked at her demonic friend and saw how his horns on his head turned back as he was excited.

“Phaedra?”

“Not yet. But her daughter is suffering from a one way disconnect with my… my daughter. If she is as powerful as I think she is it’ll be a nasty one.”

“What about Phaedra?”

“If her daughter is sick then so is she. The way she left the poor girl I’m sure they’re still connected.” she smiled wide bending down and rubbing the creature’s horns. Inadvertently making his tail wag and his smile spread. “ Now I’m going to need everything you’ve got to bring that out of her. And a fresh black mamba’s head and heart.” he looked up at Angela and grumbled a few words in anger under his breath as he went to the back of his shop.

The people in the village scrambled about but didn’t know what to do. They’d watched for days now as the woman’s body was thrown all about the small hut. All were convinced that the woman who came to the village as the doctor years ago was now possessed. Her eyes stayed black with a burning red light behind them. They could all hear her screams and the sounds of her body hitting the walls, roof, and floor. The next village’s doctor came into her hut a few days ago and was frightened out the door before he could see anything other than her body compressed in a corner on the ceiling. The one woman she’d been sharing her hut with watched as she convulsed violently and coughed blue smoke.
