Everyone kept quiet for a while as they watched as blood rushed out of the priest's burst skull and created a poll around his body, his hands and legs were still shaking, and his hands were held tightly to the chains as though it would help him, it was a gruesome sight.

" serves him right" the silence was broken by one of the women who had endured a hit from him. There were now three dead bodies in the holy ground something that had never happened before in the history of Allenwood, it was a piece of common knowledge to keep the holy ground sacred, and with little bloodshed, this was passed down from father to son mother to daughter since the days of Allen the great.

" These bodies need to be removed and the blood cleaned before the full moon appears, we all know that this place should have little bloodshed, what if the protective power is lost" another woman argued.

"Where do we put the bodies?" Another woman asked ready to work,

"since no one can go outside I suggest we take the bodies to the back store room and lock them up"

while they were deciding what to do with the bodies, there was a loud howling sound and a number of werewolves came surrounding the holy ground and the hall, they were all growling and snarling at the hall but all maintained a safe distance from the hall, the moon became to come out it was half past 10, one of the women said in a fearful realization,

" they are waiting for the full moon this hall is no, longer safe we must clean the blood, it's attracting them, another woman looked through the window and was unlucky to look straight into the eyes of the alpha, she immediately fell under his spell and climbed out through the window to meet the alpha, everyone in the hall was shocked it was the first time they saw the spell in control, the moment she stepped out of the ten feats safe zone she was devoured and her head flung back into the hall through the same window.

" Stay away from the windows"

a warning was shouted across the hall. Some brave women moved the bell and removed the body.

Martha took Manila by the hand and said to her

" come I need to tell you something my daughter, let's sit over there".

Manila followed her mother. She wondered, wanting what she had to say and why now.

"Manila my daughter"

Martha started as soon as they were seated at a corner near the window.

" My daughter there is no better time to let you know your true heritage, "oh mummy you want to tell me the fitnamic story again"? Manila interrupted with an amused expression.

"shut up and listen silly". Martha cautioned and continued her story. Manila, now very interested, laid down and put her head on her mother's lap.

"Many years ago during the youthful years of my grandmother, her mother gave her a necklace and told her what I am about to tell you, we are not from Allenwood nor from Fitnamic we are descendants of the powerful four".

"Who are the powerful four"? Manila asked,

"I am not sure Martha continued but I was told they were sisters who came across a powerful stone while bathing in a certain river. This stone was so beautiful, they decided to break it into four pieces, one for each of them. It was said that the stone had six powers the ability to shapeshift turning into a particular creature at a particular time, the ability to manifest your thoughts as reality, the ability to be immortal and live forever, the ability to take a life and give to the dead the ability to enchant and make people do your Biden and the most dreadful of them all the ability stop time".

Manila's eyes were wide-open she wondered why her mum had kept this from her all these years. She also thought, could that be the reason why strange things often happen around her, she remember the incident of the bell she had just looked at the Bell and it fell smashing the skull of the sick priest, she also recalled some other time when she was in trouble and somehow there was always a stroke of luck that saved her.

Manila began to think, what if she was immortal, she asked her mum

" why are you just saying this why now"?.

Martha ignored the question and continued the Stone was broken into four pieces and it had six powers, these powers were not shared evenly, some had more than others. Some particles of the Stones were lost; this gave the land some powers and some other animals that came in contact with the pieces of the stone some powers. Since the Stones were separated and taken to far places, it incurred the course of the stone it is said that one of the curses of the stone is this werewolf plague troubling us today, sisters were said to have troubled the world until they were bound and cast to the bottom of the sea, however, they had children and the powers were passed in their DNA so they had a necklace, this necklace was used as a means of identification for all their children and them passed them down.

A time came when a powerful ruled out of fear decided to kill everyone with the necklace, a witch Hunt started the necklace was modified, if it glows on you, it meant you had one or more of the stone's power, such a person was killed instantly with time all the necklace stopped glowing so it was believed that the powers of the stone were no longer in the human beings.

Martha handed a strange-looking necklace to Manila, keep it safe from public eyes, it's yours.

"Did it ever glow near me or on me"? Manila asked,

" No my daughter, but I must say strange things have happened around you in your favor.
