~Braylynn’s POV~
Staring at my sister, my heart dropped in my chest. Years ago I had accepted that I was the last of my family, the sole survivor. However, the woman that lied in front of me proved that that was no longer the case. She cried out in her sleep, a paralyzing scream echoed around the room.

Once all of the ingredients were in my possession, I got out my mortar and pestle and began grinding down the herbs. After that was completed, I set the herbs on fire, throwing in the last couple of ingredients into the flames.
Next I began my incantation. The second that I opened my mouth I began to feel the power running within me, the feeling intensifying with each passing word. Soon my entire body was alive with energy and colors danced before my very eyes. Lupe manifested before me, a bewildered expression plastered on her face, transforming into one of complete unease.
“Why have you brought me here,
