• , “Whats wrong?” I looked at Emma and she smiled and nodded ever so slightly and then I looked at Damon who was only looking at me. I looked to my father, “What do I have to do?”…


    “I’m proud of you. What changed your mind?”
    I looked at Emma, “Emma.” He turned towards Emma and looked at Damon. I looked at Damon too.
    “Damon, leave.” Damon tore his eyes from me and looked at my father.
    “No.” He spoke so stern and almost angry like. He was so serious. My father pointed towards the door, “No. I’m not leaving Jayne.”
    “Damon don’t test me, I’m already beyond angry. Leave now or I will force you.” I looked in my father’s eyes, and they had an evil look. Damon stood his ground. My father stepped forward and I stepped in front of Damon and my father looked possessed in a way. He kept walking towards me and Damon, Emma backed up a little, “I read about this, its some sort of curse to threaten you. If you don’t sleep he is taken over. You must accept the power of ankh…or every immortal-”
    He reached us and wrapped his hot hands around my neck, my air way was blocked. I started to gig and Damon came forward and grabbed his arm and punched his face. He dropped me in a insist. He threw against the wall and went for Damon. He punched Damon back. That set me off, I got up and punched my dad in the back and he swiveled around and tried to kick me. I ducked him I came back with a punch in the gut and a knee kick. I breathlessly started to speak as we fought, “Emma…what…do…I..have…to…do…to…stop…this?”
    “Accept the powers.”
    I kicked him into the kitchen and kicked him in the pantry and locked the door, Damon pushed the table in front of the door. I heard ruffling of pages and Emma yelled, “Say this ‘Isis, Hathor, Bastet, and Ma'at combine thee and join hands bring forth your power and put them to me. I accept in the name of you, I accept to protect the secrets in the name ankh.’ Say this and it ends…hurry!”
    My father started to brake the door and Emma rushed in and grabbed my hand. She cut it the shape of ankh in my hand and I screeched. I looked at her and she grabbed my hand and she had cut the same pattern in hers and let our blood blend together, “Now.”
    I blinked, “‘Isis, Hathor, Bastet, and Ma'at combine thee and join hands bring forth your power and put them to me. I accept in the name of you, I accept to protect the secrets in the name ankh!’”
    A strange light shot through like a meteorite and it bounced off the walls and made a circle around Emma and me. I held her hand tighter and we elevated off the ground and voices started to speak. They came louder and louder til one gentle voices broke through, “You have accepted the honor and now you must let your blood join with one you love.” I looked at Emma, “I figured I would volunteer.” Emma lifted our conjoined hands towards the voice.
    “Good, now immortals are free to live instead of being possessed. The one you have chosen is the one who you must trust your power in. This is your destra mano. We shall come in contact again.” Emma screamed as she levitated up and a pale light entered her and came out red. We fell abruptly and I was over Emma, “Emma?! Emma?! Are you okay? Speak!” I put my ear to her heart and it was beating.
    “Im fine. They just entered me to give me more knowledge.”
    “Emma. What did destra mano mean?”
    “Right Hand.” I pulled her up from the floor and we stood we hugged, “Thank you Emma.”
    “No…I was about to say no problem but never mind Im your blood buddy.”…
