in response to the escaping the witch comment Alluria said "desperation makes people do some pretty amazing things" she kept glancing at noel out of the corner of her eye.
Alluria nodded when he talked about killing the witch "i figured" she watched him walk away and took a few seconds before starting after him. she wasn't entirely sure she wanted to know what he was going to do, but curiosity was a natural human emotion and as such she continued to follow him out of the kitchen and into the house proper, she wasn't sure where he was leading her as she had no idea what rooms this house contained.

John began walking with Alyssa when he heard a rumble. He stopped walking and listened. Another rumble. Shit. He spun Alyssa around and looked her in they eye. "Alyssa, you need to run. I don't know what's here but it's something big. I just know. Run." John said. When you're a seeker for as long as John had been, you came to question everything. And rumbles probably meant something nasty. he whipped out his phone and sent a text to Tanya, telling her to suit up and bring his swords to the school.

Alyssa would hear a rumble...and then another one as she would be spunned around by John. Both of their eyes as she would grab his hand, locking their fingers with eachother. "No...I am not leaving...!! I want to be with you." She gave him a small smile being a bit nervous, because she knew about him being a slayer and she has never seen a supernatural creature before. It would be exciting, but then....very creepy. "John.... I am not leaving. I dont care what you say or do." And she spoke with a serious tone

Sam laughed weakly seeing James decapitate the head chasing after him. "Bout...time." He leaned against the wall as he continued to the music room. "I didn't see how many heads it had but I know it has one other one creeping around here. His vision was getting blurrier by the second but he was stubborn and more importantly he was a Blackwell. If he was going to die it would be fighting not by some stupid poison.

"No I don't think so, we mostly just do it for fun, what about you" Lin had actually never taken the time to think about what would happen after, But if there was ever a time to think about it the time would be now considering this was his senior year.

"I thought about college but it just never seemed interesting, y'know?" She barely took note of her phone's buzz in her pocket. Instead she took another swig. "I want to be a gypsy. I want to buy an RV and just ride. Taking slaying jobs anywhere and everywhere." None of Tanya's school friends would have every predicted that the posh and popular cheer star just wanted ride around in an RV for the better part of her life. "I want to see more of the world." She mused, then snorted a giggle. "God that sounds dumb."

"Doesn't sound stupid at all" Lin said, maybe one day all this fighting would be over and they could live normal lives, but until then this job is what they had to do

Tanya finished her bottle and swung a bit. "Sometimes I wonder where I'd be if I hadn't met Matthias. I owe him a lot. " She reached for another bottle and just held it.

James tossed Sam a vial of a strange blue liquid. "Drink this. It'll get rid of the poison."

Sam barely caught the vial and stared at it. "This ain't one of Tanya's is it? Cause if it is I might just stick with poison.

Mathias led Alluria through a hidden door that led down into the basement. In the basement were various trophies from hunts they had done in the past, a variety of different relics and weapons. They kept walking until they reached a cage where a green humanoid creature stood. "How good are you with that whip I yours?" Making his knowledge of the weapon clear.

Alluria had stopped outside the hidden door as he went in. finally she followed but the gruesome trophies, of monsters that couldn't have existed. her heart began to quicken and her steps slowed. finally she stopped a few feet behind him when he stopped in front of the cage. she pulled the whip out when he mentioned it "i'm not half bad" she said "it's not exactly a common weapon but it's kept me alive this long" she held it loosely but at the ready, eyes darting between Mathias and the creature. she didn't like how Mathias had known she'd had it, or how he had asked if she was good with it, which really could have 2 connotations. the most likely one was she was going to have to fight something, more then likely the thing in the cage. 'why is it green?' she thought, idly, her brain not quite wanting to comprehend the situation.

Mathias whistled and the green creature sprang at the side of the cage desperately trying to claw its way out to get to the two of them. "This is a ghoul." He said as he pointed to the creature. "Ghouls are fairly weak creatures compared to many other supernatural creatures, I like to keep a few around for training purposes." He looked back at Alluria as he opened the cage. "If you can't kill one then you won't make it the business." The ghoul stood perfectly still as Mathias went to the far side of the room. "I'll be here in case things get out of hand." With that he whistled again and the ghoul charged at Alluria.

Drakeonis said
Sam barely caught the vial and stared at it. "This ain't one of Tanya's is it? Cause if it is I might just stick with poison.

"No. I have my own sources for getting my cures and potions."

Alluria didn't know what the hell a 'ghoul' was, but she was pretty sure it wasn't going to serve her tea, when it shot for her she reacted immediately and her whip shot out to wrap around the creature's arm. she pulled and it sent the 'ghoul' tumbling to the side, it didn't send him far but it gave her long enough to catch herself and figure out what they hell was going on. she figured it was some kind of test. Why?! she cursed in her mind i never said i wanted to be a monster hunter or whatever the hell they are. she decided the only way she would get out of this alive was to deal with the thing so she steeled herself and sent the whip straight for the thing's head. it didn't do much, the creature was standing up again. she had to figure out what the thing's weakness was, a whip wasn't a particularly strong weapon but if she kept at it the thing really didn't look that strong. she flicked the whip at the thing's ankle and pulled with enough force she heard a crack. the creature let out a horrid sound, but now she knew how to defeat, she wasn't happy about it but she knew. she flicked the whip out and it coiled around the thing's throat, she shot forward, planted a foot on the thing's chest and grabbed the end of the whip in one motion and yanked with all her might while pushing the creature back with her foot, she heard a sickening crack and it went limp. she released the whip and the creature slid out of it's grasp and to the floor, dead. she looked at Mathias, panting a little "did i pass?"

Sam shrugged and downed the liquid gagging a little when he finished. "Sure doesn't taste any better than Tanya's." He complained but he was grateful anyway he could feel the venom and it's effect slowly starting to leave his body. His vision was still a little blurry but he was moving faster now and much to his luck he was already at the music room. Once he was inside he grabbed his guitar case and fumbled with the release on his secret compartment which held his revolvers thanks to his blurry vision. Once he got it open he removed his silver and black pythons and celebrated. The guns weren't his sword but they'd give him a fighting chance.

Mathias looked down at the dead ghoul, impressed. "Yes. Yes you did." He stepped over the dead creature and clapped. "Very smart the way you made the whip work to your advantage. it's a very unappreciated weapon." The girl showed promise, Sam was right about her. "To answer your many question I work for an organization called the Slayers, that hunts monsters demons, ghost, and the like. All of the others do it as well I've trained them since I adopted them." He walked over to the trophies again and removed a sword before walking back to Alluria. "I have a proposition for you, and you have two choices: You can join the family, where I'll adopt you, you'll live in this house with the rest and become a Slayer. Or, I'll have your memory of this day erased, give you some money and you'll be one your way." He offered the sword to her. "If you choose to stay take this."

Alluria was breathing hard but she saw the impressed look on his face when he said she had in fact passed. she straightened and took a few deep slow breaths as he stepped over the creature, clapping. she chuckled "under-appreciated ain't the half of it, I've deterred full on mobsters with this thing, as well as a lion, though i will admit this is the first time I've killed anything with it" she watched him walk to the sword and return to her explaining something about monster hunters and how everyone there is one "you know that sounds insane right? or it would be if i hadn't just killed some monster" she took a few more deep breaths, staring at the sword in his hand, she liked the look of it, she wasn't sure why, without even realizing it she had reached her hand out, she stopped with her hand hovering above it, this was a huge decision, after a few second she gently lay her hand on the sword's handle and lifted it out of his hands, looking up, her actions speaking louder then words.

John shook his head but didn't argue with Alyssa. "Just be careful and stay next to me," he said. Tanya hadn't texted back and he assumed she wasn't going to. He had to assume she wasn't coming. It was times like this that he wished he had other weapons. He grabbed Alyssa's hand and started running into the school and down the halls. He didn't have much of a plan but he'd think of something. That was when a hydra head snaked around the corner. "Holy shit!" he said as he dived around the corner, pulling Alyssa with him.

"hmph, Maybe somewhere nice with a your significant other" Lin said as he laughed a bit to himself, although what Tanya said made him wonder a bit. Where would any of them be had Mathias not adopted them, would they have stayed together, or would they have gone their separate ways. Maybe they would've ended in a different orphanage "doesn't matter where you'd be, what matters is you're here now"

Tanya snorted when Lin mentioned a significant other. "Significant other? Sooo... Johnny Depp?" She laughed more at her completely generic answer. Tanya's laughed gave way to giggles and faded until she was left with a content smile that left her looking at her shoes. "Yeah. And I'm happy here."

Mathias gave a small smile. "Good choice you just saved me a bunch of rather unpleasant paperwork."He looked back at the sword. "I personally find the sword to be the ideal weapon for killing but the whip is a useful weapon. This weapon here combines them both and after seeing your skills I think it'll be a perfect fit for you." He removed his phone from his pocket. "After a few calls you will officially be Alluria Blackwell.

Sam checked his revolvers to see if they were loaded. He was glad that he normally kept the guns loads but he only had a few speed loaders in the case. He still needed to get his shotgun or better yet his sword. His car would be impossible to get his car with the hydra's head slinking around the halls. He heard a voice yell out and he ran towards it finding John and Alyssa running from another hydra head. "John!"
