[color=turquoise]"I suppose this will sound terribly cliche but I really do believe that we make our own futures. They're all based on the decisions we make, not some pre-ordained fate. Or course, I'm not saying that I doubt your abilities in seeing into the future. All I'm saying is that whatever it is, we'll get through it together,"[/color] Caius said. [color=turquoise]"And then there's your unfinished business with these witches. As long as you're still tied to them, I doubt that we'd be able to avoid them completely. I'll take as much precaution as I can and I won't let anything happen to you. I'll protect you no matter what,"[/color] he assured.

[color=lightpink]"And who'll protect you, genius?"[/color] Claudia spoke up, leaning against the cabin's walls, obviously having overheard Caius and Callie's conversation. [color=lightpink]"A witch is obviously not enough to keep you out of harm's way,"[/color] she gave Callie a hard stare. [color=lightpink]"It's not personal. I know you and my brother are together and no matter what I say or do, Caius obviously won't abandon you even if you decide to go on a stupid suicide mission. I just don't have a lot of confidence in witch spells,"[/color] she said in passing before she turned her attention back to Caius. [color=lightpink]"You have to stay with this pack. Darric agreed not to let you out of his sight until these witches are taken care of. I will stay here as well and be temporarily a part of this pack. Obviously, we'll need some sort of offensive plan."[/color] She turned to Callie once more. [color=lightpink]"What's your plan?"[/color] she asked.
