“You disappointed me when you let this one get away, and it took you this long to finally catch up to her and now you hesitate.” Evie came up to River. “Is there something you’re not telling me? Something you’re hiding from me?” Evie whispered quietly. “Because I’m getting reallly really really tired of my hunters…failing me. Would you like to end up like the Carter’s?” Zelda swallowed thickly. “How do you know if we can get out of here? She probably has her goons completely surrounding us.” Zelda said hitching her breath. Evie watched River’s hand shake. With a disappointing sigh She rolled her eyes and with a blink of an eye, pulled out her gun and with no hesitation fired off three rounds. Zelda’s tight grip on Missy loosened. And Zelda collapsed onto the ground. Evie our away her gun and quickly gripped River’s chin. “Bag the body, and bring her back so we can dispose of it. Or do you want me to put a bullet in your head as well?” She hissed.

“She went to ground!” River snapped at her boss, before her eyes then widened, not wanting to reveal the relationship she had had with Missy, Brandy and Clara. Not to mention the fact that children had happened because of it, she knew Evie would not at all forgive a hunter breeding with banshees and witches. “I would never keep anything from you” The hunter said quickly “The Carters were weak, they always were…I’m nothing like them in the slightest” she added, cocking her gun and taking aim to shoot Zelda until Evie did it anyway, this making River jump and Missy yell out “I’ll….I’ll take care of it….And the Banshee too…” she said as Missy fell to her knees screaming, the louder her screams became the more distorted they were, her eyes blackening as she did so, calling any banshee in the area to arms and to get her strength. “I can take care of this…” River whispered Evie submissively.
“See it that you do..” Evie warned. “Because I don’t give second chances.” She said snapping her fingers and about twenty men emerged from the woods around them. “And I want you in my office by the end of the day..” she said before turning around and disappearing into the woods with the other hunters.
Zelda was shot in three places, her stomach her chest and the other had just grazed her cheek. She had little life left in her and she used whatever she had left to grip onto Missy, even if her grip was very weak.
A shadow formed behind Missy, it was Victoria. Hearing her call for distress.She immediately knelt down beside her sister and pulled her into her arms. She didn’t know Zelda very well but she did know how much Missy cared for her, so the middle child wept with her younger sibling.
