Subtitle : a witch siren.
*** general POV***
"who dares to intrude the sacred cave! This is the tomb of the old dragon, you are forbidden to enter inside...."
A malicious deep voice cooed as soon as Melanie and the the cave.
It was awake and all they could here was cracking of bones and hoarse scary voice.
Lulu panted heavily and clasped her mouth with her palm.
"can you create some light phoenix? They can't possibly see a thing with the dark cave.."
The Vampire said and Melanie nodded though no one could see her.
"what do you mean they... It's all dark and even you cant see it? Or do u have any other spiritual eyes? "
Lulu asked the Vampire in a slow voice.
"I'm a vampire kid. Non of you can see what I can see.. "
His voice was deep, cold and shutting.
Melanie quickly used her manipulative power to create a small red light ball in her palm.
The entire cave roadway was light up and the others could see clearly.
The walls were already stone and the floor was also stome and cold.
"who dares light up this cave! It's meant to be dark, no one is allowed to do that to a dark cave! "
An angry voice thundered and a mean beast appeared.
"aaaaarghhh! "
It was both Melanie and lulu that shouted.
Ryker grabbed Melanie and engulfed her in a tight hug trying to cool her down while lulu went on her knees in fright, there was no one to comfort her and the Vampire didn't care that a little girl was frightened.
He kept walking.
"no matter what anything or any beast here will say or do to you do not talk back at them or look then in the eyes. Just keep walking even if they're going to pluck off your eyes. "
The Vampire warned and pulled lulu off from the floor walking away with her pass the beast.
Melanie hide her head in Ryker's chest and they also walk pass the beast.
"am talking to all of you here, do not fucking walk away or I'll kill you!"
The beast rasped but the four all kept quiet, The two ladies were already whimpering in fear.
To explain how the beast looked like its kinda complicated.
Firstly, it has two large heads and looked like a jellyfish, both heads have but one eyes and it has two legs but has no arms. It's body is covered In a green slimy and scaly tone and it looked as scary as heck.
Who wouldn't be scared of such a disaster?
As they kept walking deeper and deeper into the cave they came across a long stair that went downwards.
They couldn't even see where the stairs ends, they began walking down and down the stairs, it was moving round in circles as they went down and they were getting too exhausted.
It took them three hours to get to the bottom of the stairs.
Lulu fell to the ground with a thud, she was breathing heavily so we're the others.
Melanie almost fainted "water, I need water.. "
She cooed and lean into Ryker's arms.
He sighed and hugged her rubbing her hair slowly.
"hey love, don't worry we'll get through this together. When all this is over you and I are going to have the whole world and time to ourselves so be strong okay.... Your stronger than you imagine..."
He hushed at her and hugged her tight.
She was comforted.
Lulu was feeling all cold as she crouched to the floor.
The vampire sighed and walked over to her bending to her level.
"get up kid.. "
He called but she don't even respond. She was all quiet and was breathing like a pig.
"I need water.. Please.. "
She cooed but only got scooped from the floor, and then the Vampire flunged her right on his shoulders as he continued walk away with her.
She slowly fell asleep on his shoulders.
The other two followed suite as they went deeper and deeper into the cave.
Soon there was a sly and mild voice speaking into their ears, the voice was enchanting and sweet and it ranged melody into their ears.
"it's being long I see new faces in here... Y'all can testify that's it's hell down here right? Well if you release me I can help you get what you want and we'll all leave here together... "
The voice was seductive and enchanting that Melanie couldn't help but look around for the person who was speaking.
The light ball she had earlier created was walking ahead of them lighting the way as they walked behind.
"don't talk back at her! "
The vampire reminded them.
Melanie nodded.
There was a sudden blew of wind as the strange person suddenly appeared.
It was a siren who had the must beautiful body Melanie had ever seen, but she had the face of Melanie's mother and that made her stop walking.
The siren was sitting on the ground with her hands bounded together by a long chain and her hair was long her slick.
Her fish tails were covered in beautiful pink scales and she looked pretty but haggard.
"do not like at her in the eye!"
The vampire warned once more but it was already too late
Melanie had already had an eye contact with the mermaid who already enchanted her.
She started walking toward the siren slowly with a face full of smiles.
"no.. Melanie.. Come back to your senses! "
Ryker snapped and got hold of her but he couldn't hold her for five seconds as she already slipped out of his hold
She had growned exceptionally strong and couldn't be hold down.
He tried running after her but found out that his legs were strapped to one place.
"no! "
He growled but couldn't shift into his wolf either.
He was feeling angry and miserable.
"come to me my dear... Untie me!"
The siren commanded and Melanie nodded and replied "yes mom.. "
Her eyes twinkled and turned pink immediately.
"there's nothing we can do.. The only way to break the enchantment is to not untie the siren but we can't even leave this spot.
And as things look now, the siren is going to use Melanie.
And then kill her.. "
The vampire muttered and Ryker growled.
Melanie walked towards the siren slowly and got hold of the chain, she began untying her immediately and soon the chain was loose.
The siren let out and ear splitting scream and stood to her feet turning her tails into a human leg.
He whole body and face transformed into that of an old scary woman.
The spell on Melanie broke immediately and she made to stand to her feet but was grabbed in the neck by the old lady.
"thank you for letting me go after thousands of years in bondage, but I'll have to kill you sweetie. Or else you'll be a threat to me.. "
The lady cooed and squeezed Melanie hard in the neck that she was choking and began to loose breath.
"it's a witch.. "
The vampire said and Ryker growled.
Lulu was long unconscious and had no idea of what was going on.
"I'll f*cking shred you witch into pieces, let go of my mate this instant! "
He growled but the siren only laughed at him as if he did something ridiculous.
"your all going to die in less than a week anyways. The witches are planning a revolution that will change the world entirely. I was kept here to guard the stupid dragon He can't be Let out, even if he did there would be no time left. You all will die haha! "
The witch laughed and Ryker smirked.
But before the witch could talk again a chain was hooked to both her hands and she shrieked as her tails appeared and she fell on the floor to ring back to a siren.
She cried and wriggled her body but couldn't break free.
Melanie only smirked at her and walked away from her going to the others.
Ryker breath out in relieve.
"I thought you were going to get hurt by that sly witch.."
Ryker said and hugged her tight.
Melanie had already gotten back to her senses the moment she unlocked the witch. Ryker was only talking to the witch to buy more time for Melanie to trap her back.
And it worked as she already hooked her back to her chains before she could know it.
"come back and release me my dear... I promise that I'll help you get out of here safely.. I won't try to kill you again please.. "
The siren called but Melanie only smirked.
She began walking ahead of the rest towards the red ball light as they left the witch behind while she screamed and begged them to let her go.
They didn't budge.
Soon they came across a large open room in the last part of the deep cave.
As they walked to the center the could see a huge box on top of a wooden stone table.
