Cordelia used all her strength to lock up Lazarus to a ball of spell and let him sleep for the rest of his life. She needs to take away him from her daughter and to Thana. She was afraid that Lazarus would create damage and do harm, and it threatened her that Thana will be on his side. No matter what the prize is, she never allows it to happen. Thana’s identity will always keep a secret.
She preached a magic spell to make Lazarus to asleep.
“You might win today, but I will promise you will be suffer Cordelia… I will come back and drink your precious blood unto the last drop of it.” She heard those last words from Lazarus.
She knelt down on the ground seemed to be a candle -lit one. She grabs her cane and grip on it to protect herself from falling. Cassandra and Willow step towards to her place and helped her to stand.
“Supreme, are you alright?” Cassandra said with concern in her voice.
“I’m alright.”
Willow observing Cordelia he guessed that Cordelia used too much of her power. She looks weak and her white golden hair turned into gray.
“We better go home now. Lazarus will never come back again and Huesca will be in peace.”
They nodded and flew back to home. Willow kept staring at Cordelia. She differed from before she got into the battle with Lazarus. She was powerful. He noticed it wrinkled her skin as far from the physical appearance she saw earlier.
They rushed to the Allegra room. They saw Allegra was laying down in the bed, looking unconscious. It surprised Salina when she saw her mother appear. Her hair turned to gray and her face gets more wrinkles, her eyes as dull and she can’t even feel the power running into her vein.
“Mother, are you alright? You look pale and weak.”
“Don’t care about me. I can take care of myself. Look after your sister. She needs more attention.”
Allegra was still unconscious when Salina gazed at her.
“How is she?” Willow asked Salina.
“She will be fine. I gave her an antidote to the poison that Lazarus gave to her.”
“Have you found out what it was?’
She nodded to Willow and turns to her Mother Cordelia. Salina furrowed her eyebrows as she worried about her sister's condition. Her blood ran cold when she faces Cordelia.
“What is that look, Salina?” Cordelia asked.
“Mother, I’m afraid that something might happen to Allegra.”
“What do you mean?”
“My witch craft magic cannot control the poison inside her body.”
Cordelia looks deeper into Salina's eyes and sighed as her breaths sounded all over the room.
“That’s not the thing I thought to you.” Cordelia feels disappointed in Salina. She averted her eyes to her mother and glance to Allegra.
Her heart tremble and her hands were shaking. Why this moment should come? Her witch craft magic was not working. What she can able to cure her sister from the poison the Lazarus gave to her sister?
“I’m afraid that she will die soon, Mother.”
“It will never happen.” Cordelia said.
She come closer to Allegra and stared her from head to toe. Her face and lips are pale. She removed the blanket that wrapped around Allegra’s body. To her astonishment, she loses control of her feelings. The tears in her eyes formed and rolled to her cheek.
Everyone in the room was dumbfounded by what they saw. Allegra’s face and body looks pale and there was a green colored appears in her arms ad legs like a shrub of the tree that climbing to her body.
“What should we do?” Cassandra said.
“Here. Give her another dosage of antidote, it will be help.”
Salina handed over to her mother the antidote that she made. Cordelia grabs the bottle of antidote and drops a paltry antidote into Allegra’s lips. At the moment, nothing happened. She looks more pale and her lips cracked.
“She will be die if the poison stays in her body.” Willow stated.
“I need to do something. I can’t look at her suffering from the poison that Lazarus gave to her.”
“But Cordelia, you are weak now. Your power might be lost.”
“It doesn’t matter. I’am old enough. I need to save my daughter.”
“Mother.” Salina whispered.
“Let me do that for you.”
Willow volunteer himself to help to save the life of Allegra. Cordelia just shrugged her head. She taps her cane on the floor and starts preaching magic.
“Per vim venti audiant dolorem meum auferant incantrmentum in corpus suvum, et volert in tenebrus noctem.”
( By the power of wind hear my agony take away the spell into her body and let them fly into the darkness night.)
A thick dark smoke comes out from the mouth of Allegra, disappeared into the air. Allegra is awake, grasping in air to breathe. Her pale skin backs to normal and the green shrub on her arms and leg slowly subside. She opens her eyes wide and looks around. She saw her sister Salina and the two Supremes of Atenowa and her mother Cordelia just staring at her.
“Mother.” Allegra whispers.
“I’m glad you are back now.”
Allegra turns to Salina, and she scans everything around the room and finds Thana. She glances at Cassandra and extending her arms to hold Cassandra’s hand.
“Please give the spell that I made to Thana. She will protect that liquid spell from Lazarus.”
“Will do, Allegra.”
“You feel better now.”
“I am alright, Mother. thank you for saving me.”
Cordelia just nodded and steps toward to the door. She wants to get rest. Her heart will be in peace knowing that Allegra is out of danger.
“Mother, are you alright?” Salina notices her feeling weakness. She walks too slow and her body seems tired.
“I’m alright. I will just get rest.”
“Are you sure?”
“I am. Why you always asking question?”
Salina just shrugged her shoulder and glare to her sister. She has a feeling that her mother suffered from the hands of Lazarus. There was a bruise on her forehead. She was afraid that her mother gave all the powers to summon Lazarus.
Cassandra and Willow follow Cordelia. She guesses that her mother has important things to say to the Supremes. She just sighed and turns to Allegra. She doesn’t want her sister to be worried about their mother.
She will find a way to know what her mother's plans and what are the secrets were that she would say to the Supremes.
