God that was the longest
night of my life! Julia said to herself.
Julia had a restless night, up every hour on the hour. Julia looked at her
alarm clock to see that it was only four o’clock am.
“Really” she said aloud
and walked over to her bedroom door to head to the bathroom when she heard
voices.
“Jacqueline have you
checked on Julia to make sure she was asleep? We do not want her to wake up and
we are gone no explanation or note saying where we went.” Dale told his wife.
“I will check on her
after I start the coffee and change. I will meet you and Detective O’Connor at
the town hall around six o’clock. Let me know what you found out in your hunt
at the station.” Jacqueline told her husband.
“I hope we can find
something about why Julia’s change is happening so fast.” her father said.
Julia sunk back from the door. They are going without me to investigate
information about the change and they are not going to involve me. Why is this a
secret? I do not understand the secrets! Julia thought to herself.
Julia tip toed over and
slowly climbed into her bed to pretend that she was asleep she decided that she
was going to follow her mother and hide in the adjoining office and listen to
what they have found out. The events are not supposed to begin until ten o’clock
in the morning I should be able to get back before mom. About a half hour
later her mom snuck up into Julia’s room.
“Julia, Julia wake up!”
her mother said. Julia pretended she was asleep and stretched and rubbed her
eyes.
“Mom what time is it?” Julia
asked.
“Early, honey! I need to
run to the office for a little bit I will be back around nine. I have some
juice for you to drink I could hear you all night tossing and turning.
“Thanks mom, but I
thought you had the day off?” Julia asked
“I do have the day off,
but some records came in that I need to review. I will only be a couple of
hours. You need to rest drink up!” Jacqueline said handing Julia the juice.
Julia grabbed the glass and in two drinks it was gone. Thinking it would make
her mother leave sooner so she could sneak out.
“There that should make
you sleep well!” Jacqueline said, Julia looked at her mother confused.
“What do you mean it is
just juice? How is juice going to make me sleep well?” She asked her mother.
“It was a potion made to
help you sleep with herbs of Kava Kava, Passion Flower and Hops, and I masked
the flavor with citrus. You should be asleep in no time at all. Julia you are
your fathers’ child in many ways and the detective in you shows. Plus, heard
you walk to the door when me and your father was talking in the hall. I knew
you would try to sneak out and follow me. Let us do this alone let the
one’s that love you take this mission on to find the answers to what is going
on with your change and why it is so different. I will see you in a couple of
hours, I love you and I am sorry that I had to give you the potion but you
cannot follow.” Jacqueline told her daughter with a kiss on her forehead and a
whisper of some words Julia could not understand. Jacqueline could see that the
potion and incantation was taking effect. Julia went to say something but
before she could all she could see was all black. Jacqueline covered her
daughter up and walked out of her daughters’ room and left to head to the
office.
Julia knew she was in a
deep sleep but she was fighting for control of her dream and won over the walls
of power that trapped her from traveling. “What was that? It was powerful, I
wonder if moms’ words were a spell to bind me to my dreams also!” Julia
thought out loud. How could my mother do this to me! Then again I can still
follow in my dreams now that I got through that wall.
Julia thought of her
father at his office, she knew if she thought of Detective O’Connor he would
feel her watching them. Next moment she was above her father and Detective
O’Connor looking at a case file box marked “Cold Case # 20698” They opened the
box Alaina Lynn Rivers. They pulled out a Book of Shadows that looked exactly
like mine, a necklace with the symbols of the elements, candles, and photographs
along with the folder with information retrieved from the investigation. On the
first page it read:
Alaina Lynn Rivers
02/25/1976
Parents Renee & Richard Rivers
Renee and Richard Rivers
came into the Madison County Sheriff’s Department on 02/06/1998 to report that
their Daughter known as the Covens Ultimate Grand Priestess has been missing
since sometime on 02/04/1998. Alaina Lynn Rivers, 19 yrs.’ old, long blonde
hair, height 5’4”, about 120 lbs., crystal blue eyes, last seen wearing Levi
blue jeans, white tank top with a larger t-shirt blue in color over the tank
top with the neck cut so that it hung off one shoulder, medium hoops, then
several more piercings going up her left ear mostly studs, and Nike tennis shoes.
Vehicle description:
Year: 1984 Make: Nissan Model: Sentra coupe, Color: Blue, Registration: Renee
Rivers, License Plate Number: JRP 119.
Their daughter starter
her ritual early that morning before heading to her classes at the local
college. Renee Rivers came home from work to find her daughter never returned
home from school; Renee sent her a telepathic message asking if she was going
to be home for dinner. The message met a barrier that she could not penetrate
through it. Renee thought she was having a relationship with someone but Alaina
never brought anyone around for her to know for sure. Renee and Richard said
Alaina changed after her Graduation/Full Moon Ceremony. Alaina’s change took
only a week on her ceremony her element gift was all four element the first of
our kind. Alaina never had a boyfriend through High School and as far as they
are aware she was a virgin. They think that is what contributed to her being
the Ultimate Grand Priestess. Alaina became withdrawn from her studies and
friends she was not dealing with the changes well.
The investigation starts
with a trip to Coven Hurst University, We spoke to Marcus Johnson Dean of
Admissions and his secretary Mrs. Smith who both said she had attended half her
classes that day when an emergency call came from her boyfriend that she needed
to meet him at his house his mother was in an accident and he needed her at the
hospital. Mrs. Smith took the message immediately to her. That is not Mrs.
Smith’s normal duties to take messages to students but for Alaina she is our
Ultimate Grand Priestess so for her they made special arrangements. Due to her
specialties if the community needed to get a hold of her for healing then she
could get to them faster through Mrs. Smith taking the messages. But the Dean
did not think that her boyfriend was a warlock or her eternal mate. Mrs. Smith
stated that when she gave the message to Alaina she seemed afraid of something.
Mrs. Smith said she asked Alaina if she was alright Alaina just shrugged and
said “We will have to see!” gave a small smile and thanked her and left. That
was the last time that anyone has seen or heard from her.
Then a week after her
missing a man arrived in town by the name of Brian O’Malley, 21 yrs.’ of age,
6’2”, 195 lbs, Black shirt, Jeans, Work boots. Driving a 1998 Black Ford
Explorer, 4 doors, registered to: Brian O’Malley. He showed up at the victim’s
house and stated to Renee and Richard Rivers “Hello, Mr. & Mrs. Rivers I am
here to claim Alaina as my Eternal Mate.” Mr. Rivers explained to him the
situation and sent him to us when after he stated “I felt her a few days ago
when she came into my Private Detective Office in Cleveland, Ohio”! When Mr.
O’Malley came into the Sheriff's office he told Detective Rodriguez that he had
seen Alaina in his Private Detective Office a few days ago with a police
Officer from our Sheriff’s Office. The gentleman was about 6’3”, 195 lbs., Dark
features and blue eyes but he believed them to be contacts not his real color.
When I asked her who he was she stated “My eternal mate!” I knew that not to be
true because as soon as she came in the door I knew she was mine not his I
think she also knew he had lied to her. But I could tell she was questioning it
also. She told me they were headed back to Coven Hurst, Ohio. Which she
obviously never returned too.” He Continued “In her packet that she asked me to
look at for her was an additional packet on the same gentleman that escorted
her into my office. I believe then she was trying to tell me that she was in
danger. That is when I started to come here to your town to get her. But I am
too late!”
Mr. O’Malley is
investigating and is also keeping us informed with information that he has
found in his investigation. Then after about a year Mr. O’Malley has also gone
missing please look at Case File #2271999 for reference.
