As Magnus climbed into the car, Leo controlled his breathing, making every effort to appear natural.

[color=gold]"Where to? Somewhere with drinks?"[/color]

Leo chuckled and looked over at Magnus, a sly glint in his eye. [color=steelblue]"Well, I feel like we have more pressing matters, but I suppose-!"[/color]

Leo jumped in his seat as Callie slammed on the hood of Magnus car, her arm soaked in blood and rapidly draining more. Her hair was disheveled and her clothing torn, a wild, pleading look in her eye. The Witch looked like she had gone through hell and back, and her voice was barely audible over Leo's shout of anguish.

[color=coral]”Leo… please...“[/color]

The door to Magnus car practically exploded open when Leo shoved against it, leaping from the vehicle and rushing to Callie's side, his arms wrapping around her, gently pulling her to the ground in a panic as words rushed from his mouth.

[color=steelblue]"Callie! What's wrong? What happened? Who did this? Where are you hurt? I need to see your wounds. Is there anyone else? I need-!"[/color] He barely gave the Witch time to speak in between his questions; nothing on the planet had ever injured Callie as badly as she was now, and her appearance of utter despair and agony only made Leo worry more. Before the Witch could speak, the amulet on her neck flared a bright red in unison with Leo's alerting them to the danger that the third amulet was in. Leo frowned for a moment as he realized that there was a third amulet, but he couldn't remember who-

[b][i][color=steelblue]Alexis.[/color][/i][/b]

The amulets flared again, indicating that it was not long before the young warlock perished. Leo whipped his head around, unable to see Alexis anywhere nearby. The realization that Callie had warped through a leyline and abandoned Alexis sent a chill down his spine; if Callie were to abandon Alexis in danger, her end must have been certain.

Leo shook his head, growling in frustration as he clutched his amulet with both hands, unwilling to let her die without a fight. The Warlock had spent far too much of his life learning how to save people for him to let Alexis go quite so easily.

As Callie bled out on his lap, Leo snapped at Magnus. [color=steelblue]"Save her!"[/color] The Warlock's voice was low and powerful, commanding authority that he had never used before. Magnus was far older and more powerful than Leo, but in a time of crisis, that took a backseat to Leo's protective instincts.

Leo's fingers interlocked around the amulet as it pulsed red a third time and let out a low tone, indicating that she would be dead within seconds. The Warlock's eyes closed as he channeled his energies into the amulet's connection to its sibling, pumping magical energies through the tether as his lips began to move at lightning speed, casting a time alteration spell. Gold energy began swirling around the man, and the amulet in particular, spinning faster and faster until a golden vortex enveloped Leo, overflowing from the hastily cast spell.

In an instant, an image flashed through Leo's mind: The bloodied maw of a wolf clamping down on the throat of a girl, however, just before  the teeth sank into her flesh, a yellow flash stayed its fangs. Translucent gold chains came shooting out of the woods, converging on Alexis' body as the energy surrounded her, freezing her body in time as the stasis spell was completed.

Leo fell backwards onto the ground as his eyes fluttered open, exhausted from casting a spell of that magnitude over such a large distance. Callie's body lay limp in his lap, but she was still conscious. Her blood trickled onto Leo's pants, staining them a dark crimson.

His fingers found her neck, and he placed his palm on her cheek, cupping her face as he muttered a second spell. Dark blue softly glowed between his hand and Callie's face as the spell permeated through her skin, magically freezing her blood. The dark red liquid still ran through her body, but it was almost like a cryofreeze, slowing her heart rate and lowering her blood pressure. It would help her survive for longer, but beyond that, Leo could do nothing for her until they got back to the inn. It was up to Magnus until then.
