𝐀𝐒 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐂𝐈𝐄 and her four brothers Malaki, Milo, Mak, and Marcus got out of the car along with Rhea's little brother, they took in the lively scene of New Orleans. The streets were filled with people of all backgrounds and ages, shopping, eating, and enjoying the city's vibrant atmosphere. As they explored the area, they passed by stores, restaurants, bars, and more, taking in everything the city had to offer. The sky was a bright blue, with a slightly warm and cozy breeze in the air, creating a pleasant atmosphere all around.

"I can't believe it has been centuries," Mak says

"Grandpa." Rafe whispers.

Mak rolled his eyes as he turned his body to face Marcie, "So- where is this witch."

"Shhh!" Marcie hushed him.

Mak stares at his sister confusingly, "Witches are not supposed to be mentioned here because of the things that they do- Witchcraft is forbidden." she says

"So what are you saying?" Malachi barges in glaring.

"I'm saying- that we have to be secretive about it, there are vampires out here that want them dead so our best bet is that the witch that we're finding is hiding."

"Then she probably won't even fucking help us, Marcie!" Mak said furiously.

"Is everything alright sir?" A security guard said holding onto his belt that was strapped around his waist.

"Uh oh." Rafe backs up behind the brothers

"Yes, everything is alright sir." Mak's voice sounds attentive.

"Mhm." the security guard examines Mak and his crew.

As the guard examines each person in Mak's group, he can't shake the feeling that he has never seen their faces. "Hm, you look a little pale buddy, anyways are you guys new here? I don't think I've ever seen y'all faces before." he stares closely

"We are visiting family." Marcus forces a smile.

The security guard nods his head turning to look at Rafe. "Hm, what about you kid? How old are you?" the guard leans closer.

Mak stands in front of Rafe pushing him back a little, the Security guard focuses on Mak's sudden action.

"We were just going." Mak's voice sounds a bit demanding.

The security guard held his hands up in surrender. "Hey, I'm not the bad guy, I'm just making sure you guys are good." he backed up

"Thanks, sir." Marcie breaks the awkward tension.

The security guard backs away slightly, keeping an eye on the group as he speaks into his walkie-talkie.

The guard appears to be communicating with someone on the other end, possibly requesting backup or just providing a heads-up to be on the lookout.

✥✥✥

"How do you know so much about witches?" Rafe asks Marcie who is leading the way.

"Because my best friend was one." she returns with a soft smile.

"This is still hard to process- that you guys exist- that everything I thought was fake is real."

Marcie chuckles softly, "So does that mean mermaids are real?" Rafe asks

"Mermaids are a little too much, don't you think?" she chuckles again.

"Well no, like Mak said- If he's real- anything was possible. He also told me about werewolves and hunters."

"Werewolves..." Marcie scoffs

"Not my cup of tea." she shakes her head in disgust.

"They are cool though."

"Vampires are cooler bud." she points her finger at Rafe's nose.

"Stop!" Marcie held her hand up stopping everyone from taking another step.

"What?" Rafe said confusingly.

"It smells-

"Like blood." Marcie finishes

"Yay is it time to eat!?" Malachi said cockily.

"It's coming from the alleyway," Milo says.

Mak stands tightly by Rafe's side as they all seem to be on edge, ready to protect themselves should anything unexpected occur.

"It could just be a dead animal." Rafe tries to ease the tension.

"No, I know the difference between animal blood and human blood.. kid."

Marcie leads the group over to the alleyway where she has smelled the scent of blood. They look around for a bit but don't see anything unusual or out of place. Soon, she notices that the smell appears to be coming from a garbage can.

"Maybe it is just a dead animal," Marcie says trying to leave.

"Open the lid." Mak protested

When Marcus opens the lid of the garbage can, all of them witness a gruesome scene. A dead body lies there, with flies and gnats swarming all around it.

"Rafe close your eyes."

"Why?"

"Just close your fucking eyes!"

Rafe listened and closed his eyes, "What is it!" he said frightened

"It's just a unicorn," Malachi says

"Okay a dead body, Got it," Rafe says still scared

Marcus notices the fresh blood and mentions it to the group, but they are all still quite disgusted and intrigued.
They are all still trying to figure out what could have caused this gruesome scene.

"What you think could've done it." Marcus stares at his siblings.

"A vampire." Marcie ponders.

"No," Mak says

"What?"

"Look, there are scratch marks, not a vampire- we don't scratch."

"So a werewolf?" Milo interferes

"I don't know- I would've smelled their smelly wet dog scent."

"Werewolves are protectors, not killers."

"they'll kill if they have to," Marcus says.

Marcie rolled her eyes, "Okay so what is it?-

"Hey!" The Security guard from earlier shouts out.

Everyone turned their backs around to face the security guard, Marcie stood in front of the garbage can to try her best to hide the body

"Hello again sir," Marcie spoke first

"What are you guys doing?" he stares closely.

"Chilling." Rafe crosses his arms smirking at the guard.

Everyone turned to gawk at Rafe who randomly spoke, they realized what he was doing- he was stalling.

But In their perspective, they found it dumb and goofy.

"Chilling?" He eyes the younger male

"Yes, just coolin'," Rafe crosses his arms leaning to the side with a smirk on his lips.

"Please tell him to stop," Marcie whispers to her brothers

The guard stares at everyone closely. "Nothing to see here, there is not a dead body in the trash," Rafe says nervously.

"Fucking dummy." Mak mumbles

"Bro," Malachi whispers

The security guard glares into the boy's eyes as he is getting tense up, "I need you guys to step aside."

Everyone stared in silence.

"Now!" He yelled holding up his gun.

Everyone held their hands up in surrender, "Can I just rip his fucking head off?" Mak whispers to himself knowing that his siblings could hear from their vamp hearing.

"No." Milo and Marcie whisper.

Rafe stood behind Mak frighteningly. "I can't believe I'm agreeing with you brother," Malachi whispers

Everyone watches as the guard strolls closely towards the garbage can with his gun aiming forward.

"Run," Marcie says once the security guard panics.

The security guard turned back around with his gun aiming forward but the crew wasn't there anymore, he had a feeling that they had done it.

"Shit," he said

He positioned his walkie-talkie towards his lips.

He speaks into his walkie-talkie, informing whoever is on the other end of his report.

He mentions that there was a dead body found in the alleyway and that it appears there may be potential suspects involved. He describes the individuals as suspicious and potentially dangerous based on their behavior and appearance earlier.

"Four tall pale face males with tattoos going down their arms, the woman has black hair and a tall figure as well- they also had a younger boy with them."

"Pale too?" The other end asks

"Black." The security guard said

"What does the corpse look like?"

"It looks like a dead body pal! Send down back up and the local authorities." His voice demanding.

"And bring the stakes."
