491 A New Start
“We will not let that happen! We will save our queen!” To the shock of everyone the team of vampires attacked the witches who were trying to attack only Hazel as if she was their only target.
“Kill those witches and save our queen.” they shouted in unison as they attacked stunned witches.
Everyone knows that vampires are proud beings. They never served Hazel, taking her as a weak human.
“Ha! Do you still not understand? She is one of us. She is a witch too.” they announced but it did not look like it changed anything.
Rafael laughed looking at them as if they were a fool, “you still did not understand it?” he tilted his head when Diana stood up and stared back at her
“She is our queen, no matter who she is!” they announced making them speechless.
“No! How could you support a witch! Did you not hate them?” they shouted as the vampires held witches as if they were made of cotton and killed them with their bare hands.
A few of them held them in their arms and started drinking their blood.
“You still did not understand?” asked Rafael as he walked closer to Hazel and held her in his arms, supporting her. “She had given a part of her power to everyone here so that they would not be affected by Beryllium.”
.....
“......” they have thought about every solution, every reason to the limit that they had thought that it was not real Beryllium but fake one that Rafael or hazel had changed at a point of time but who would have thought that Hazel had given up her powers!
For those vampires?
“You still did not understand. This is the moment of peace. When witches, vampires and humans are supporting each other. They are united like everyone wanted to be.” said Hazel with a cough and pale face when they finally realized how they were able to attack her so easily.
She had gone much weaker! But how could this be! Were they not fighting for justice from the start.
“But vampires had killed our whole generation. How can you forgive them? How can you support them?” they asked when Hazel shook her head.
The vampires held witches in their place but stopped attacking them.
“No! The witches started it. They killed me and Rafael was only taking revenge. But that was in the past. For decades, he was silent. Why do you want to start it now?” she asked as she stared into the eyes of Freya. “What makes you think that you are a revolutionary? The world needs peace not war and revolution.”
But Freya only gritted her teeth. It was too late for peace in their life. They had trained themselves all their life to fight with the vampires.
“No! Only our death or their destruction could be the end.” she muttered as she attacked again but Hazel held her hands and the sparks flashing her eyes vanished instantly.
“You!” she was not able to speak further as Hazel kept sucking every attack she was trying to do.
She could feel her getting weaker. Like an electronic pulse passing from one body to another, her magic kept flowing in the body of hazel.
“Recently, i have learnt about a forgotten necromancy where a witch could give her powers and take others power too. Isn’t it interesting?” asked Hazel with a tilt of her head as she looked at shocked Freya.
Then she stared at other witches who had completely lost the battle.
“These vampires would not be affected by Beryllium anymore. So, do you want to continue the war?” Her loud voice silenced everyone who bowed their heads.
“From now on, I hazel, the queen of the witches, the dark witch, announce my authority over every witch who would bow down to me and I announce that the war has ended for forever.” every vampire kneeled in front of her and bowed their head when witches felt the pressure on their shoulders and then they bent their body to escape that pain too.
Freya was getting her teeth but she was on her knees too.
Rafael walked and hugged her again as he looked at everyone.
“I, Rafael, the lord of the vampire, announce that we are in peace with witches and humans from now on. I open the doors of my empire for both of them.
From now on witches could have equal rights to live and no one need to hide. And from now on, vampires would not have the right to take the life of witches or humans in their hunger but can only feed after the consent of the other party.” her words brought an uproar.
Even the witches were choked by it but saw no reluctance or objection in the eyes of the vampire.
“I will even help the witches in settling down if they would come for help.” he added looking at them who bowed their heads with fear and confusion.
“No! This is all a trap. They are trying to break us so that they can win against us.” shouted Freya but Hazel shook her head.
“And what will be gained by it? You have already lost the war. If we want, we can kill all of you this instant.” her grip on her hands tightened and Freya winced when Hazel let her go, “see! You are at our mercy. But we do not want war anymore. We want a place where we all can live together with peace.
So who is with us…” she asked looking at others when a vampire stood up and walked behind her.
Rafael smiled and stood on her other side. Soon, many vampires came and stood behind her when she stared at the witches.
They all were staring at her but did not move when she closed her eyes and sighed.
But just then, another witch stood up and followed and stood with her.
“I am ready to support you for this new world.”
