Her bright blue eyes glanced across the room from her place along the wall. Her hands linked together in front of her. Her body seemed relaxed but Vera was tense under a deep red strapless ball gown. She didn’t like parties like this. It was a common thing among the humans to invite one another to visit. A way to show off what they had and who they had for possible marriages. However, this wasn’t just some silly human party. With the kingdoms of many different races spreading across the land, humans were never the only people attending these gatherings. She knew that no one could sense their powers, or that they were anything more than human, but it still made her uneasy. As the oldest of all four sisters, she was the reason they were in this mess. If anything were to happen it would be her fault. 

To hide herself as oldest child, Vera kept off to the side lines, making sure to keep to the shadows. It was boring yes, but it would help keep herself hidden from being deemed the oldest. As much as she did not want any harm coming to her sister’s she had to live. She could hear someone coming to her left, she glance to her side and saw her father. Well it wasn’t her real father, but he raised all four of them as if they were really his children. “Father.” Vera said with a small smile, she knew what was coming.

“Darling. You know how sad it makes me when you don’t join all the fun. I’m sure there is some wonderful gentlemen that would surely make your happy on the dance floor. If not you could easily make some small talk even if you must pair with one of you sisters.” He said as he came up beside her giving her a kiss on the cheek. Vera sighed.

“I know, perhaps after a drink? Would you go get me one?” She asked smiling at him, however, the emotion not making it to her eyes. Her hands unlocked for a moment as her hand came up to tug a strange of blonde hair behind her ear. It had fallen out of its place in her up do. 

“Of course my love, but you must promise to go socialize after I get it.” He said but she didn’t reply as he walked away she only smiled. However, the next moment, the lights in the room all cut at once. Fear rolled through her whole core, as her eyes went wide. She started to turn to run from the room but ran right into a barrier trapping everyone within the room. Vera stumbled back a little as her hands came up to hold her nose, her shoulder already aching from the hit it just took. 

Looking at the exit now, her eyes were wide, fear and horror over taking her as she stared at the soft simmering glow of blue before her. Using one hand, the other still grasping her nose, she reached out slowly to touch the see through wall before her. The colour solidified under her touch making her pull her hand back quickly as it hovered above her chest. She was trapped. She hadn’t yet realized what was going on in the room yet. Her mind to focus on the barrier before her. She could feel her chest tighten in panicky.

“May I have this dance my Lady?” a deep voice rang into her ears, making her glanced over towards the voice. Levi smiled a little, her short hair bouncing a little as she did so.

“Oh course, but perhaps I should know the name of my wooer first?” She side smiling a little more.

The man chuckled, “of course my Lady. I, Duke Georgie of the Elementalist of Fire would enjoy your company on the dance floor.” He said with a small bow. Levi grinned a little.

“Oh I guess I shall honor you with a dance then.” She said placing her drink down to the side and taking his hand before he led her out onto the dance floor. The music was a soft hum of string instruments, slow and lovely. Their sounds perfectly echoing through the room, easily entrancing anyone who may enter. When the two finally got to a spot on the dance floor, he took her one hand and placed it by their shoulder level a little away from their body, her hand came up to rest on his shoulder and his hand on her waist. Without a second to think, the two followed into step as they started to waltz around the ballroom. 

“You really are a beautiful woman.” He said, Levi smiled up at him, but she was cursing inside. The four of them had made a pack no guys outside of the court and therefore, they must wait until they are taken back to the Seelie court before even think of finding a man. Fae law, was very strict about marrying within your own race. It was okay to fuck with others, literally but, you could not have children with them, and therefore marriage was not an option.

Soon after that, the lights in the room went off all at once. A gasp echo around the room as the instruments screeched to a stop. Levi and the Duke had stopped where they were still holding each other, as they glanced around. The click on metal on stone echoed only faintly in the murmurs of the crowed. Levi glanced up to see thirty men descending onto the party. Levi gasped, making the Duke look up, before pulling her deeper into the mass of people. When they got the floor, people backing up to make a space for them, a few people screamed and made way to leave only for a bright blue wave to cover the whole room. They were trapped in.

The Duke had his arms wrapped around her, one hand still holding hers. She couldn’t he but tighten her grip around him, fear over taking her. She wasn’t scared per-say but worried about what was to come and if they, the sisters, would have to do something.

“Ah, sorry to interrupt the party ladies and gentlemen, but there is something I need before you all can carry on with your over indulging lives.” A crocked voice rang through the room. Levi’s head turned towards it despite not being able to fully see what was going on from their place in the crowd. She bite her lip a little, a pit in her stomach growing. “As you can see no one shall be getting out until we get what we want. Now we won’t hurt you so long as you push the Duchesses forward now, otherwise, some people are going to hurt.” He paused “And by Duchesses I mean the four McClair daughters.”

The man whom had just been holding her had let go and started to walk pass her. “My lord wh-“ She started to ask before she realized what he was doing. She started after him, seeing how his hand was held but no fire was coming from it. The room was magic locked. She reached her hand out to him, but it was too late, he had charged forward, jumping into the air ready to bring his lack of flames down on what appeared to be the leader.

The leader didn’t flinch though, everyone gasped as the Duke was quickly forced to the ground, metal cuffs digging into the floor to hold him. “As you can see!” The leader roared, the room is magic locked, and I presume all your weapons were taken before you entered, if not, if you wish to try and attack, you’ll end up just like this guy.” Well the leader was talking, Levi had glanced up to see a shadowed figure on the second floor gallery. Pressing her lips into a firm line she glanced around for her sisters but couldn’t see any of them. It was then that she could see the glisten of the leader’s blade being pulled up, he was going to kill the Duke to ensure his power in this position. Levi rushed forward pushing people out of her way.

“DON’T!” She scream, her hands being held out as if that would stop him. The leader paused half way throw his swing and smiled at her. It was the type of smile that sends shivers down your spin. But it wasn’t just him, it was all of the men. She took a step back.

“Oh no you don’t!” Another man lunged forward grasping her forearm making her scream as she was pulled into his arms. Levi struggled for a moment, but it was no use, her had her turned around, on her knees and her arms awkwardly pinned behind her back. She could feel the pain rushing up her arms into her shoulders. She gritted her teeth together. “Awe, don’t you wanna scream? I like when they scream.” The man who had taken her hissed.

“Go to hell.” She hissed.

They were on the upper level of the ballroom, despite the light in the room casted up on the three levels (galleries) that looked down on the open ballroom. Feodor had his eyes closed as he focused on keeping them unseen. He had been hired by this group of criminals to use his gift of dark magic to aid them. He was a dark mage for hire. He would go from group to group, rather than be bound to the laws of a leader. He wrote his own rules and didn’t like to stay in one play too long. Pinching he brigde of his nose a little his eyebrows pulling together he opened his brown eyes and glared at the group around him who had started to bicker. “Would you all just shut up!” He growled before rubbing his index finger and thumb together as he walked up to the edge of the balcony. He could see all the colours of the party, all the different races that were dancing, laughing, and drinking. He couldn’t help but smirk a little. This was going to be fun. Watching them all panic. All just one big show. It would have been easier to take the girls in the night, went the party was over, but no these guys like the fear, they fed off it. 

“Feodor are you ready yet?” The leader braked his body tense and his eyes wild for things to get started. 

Glancing back he was still smirking darkly. “Of course I wasn’t sure if you boys were ready for this just yet.”

The man growled softly. “Move it already.” 

Feodor chuckled to himself before raising his hand which was still rubbing his index and this thumb together and let them part. Suddenly the room was dark, screams of pure horror and fear echoed up into the high domed room. The kidnappers then stood up on the railings then then started to go down on ropes, the metal hooks attached to the railings themselves. Just as the lights had gone out, Feodor had bent down on the craving on the floor and cut his thumb on his dagger before running his thumb along the craving, a soft glow of blue started to come from the craving, singling that the barrier was up.

As he crouched down, he could see through the polls of the railing, the chaos that was starting to unfold downstairs. He brought his thumb up to his lips and gave a lick before the cut sealed closed and he stood up. He leaned along the railing, and glanced down.

“Now we won’t hurt you so long as you push the Duchesses forward now, otherwise, some people are going to hurt.”

One person jumped towards the leader, his hand held up like it should have some type of attack in it. Feodor smirked snapping his fingers and the man was suddenly pinned down by large metal cuffs around his arms, legs and neck. He struggled a little, giving Feodor a chance to really look at him, he was an elementalist if he was right about the energy that should have been coming off him. Feodor had added an extra twist to the barrier, temporary magical lock. No one but him could use any powers. The leader brought up his sword when a girl in a lovely dark blue dress with just a hint of white pushed forward screaming for him to spot. Bingo, there was one, three more to go.
