Her vision was foggy as she starred at the entrance, sweat dripped from her forehead. Ophelia was out of her grasp. She could feel her sweater cling to her back, and her breathing was heavy. Her face now Mara's, was probably red from the blood rushing to her brain. Her new body---was weak, not her liking. What a useless body. But it was the one Alumm provided, so it was better than nothing. At least it was not an older man or an ugly person.
What a shame Mara did not complete her task. Nevertheless, she got some blood samples from Ophelia, remaining on the murder weapon. She starred at Sinon, he just placed a wall so it was no use wasting her time. She just turned around and climbed the stairs to the apartment. She wiped off the sweatdrop from her head with her sweater. She was disgusted at the amount of sweat that was on her, disgusting.
Mara entered the door of her new home, she closed it and went into the kitchen. She took a Ziploc bag and stored the knife in it. Blood filled the bottom of the bag. Mara placed the bag of blood on the kitchen counter. Quickly, she makes her way to the shower. She tossed her clothes on the floor and undo her clip. Since Ophelia is no longer here, no need to pretend to be Dreida. "That absolute loser," she thought as she looked at her reflection, still wearing her dumb glasses.

"I didn't kill her," said Mara on the phone.
"You had ONE fucking job! Sigh, guess it can't be helped. Do you at least have her blood." scolded Alumm, disappointed with Mara's failure.
"Of course, I didn't let her escape unscathed. I got a bit of her blood in a bag, you can come to pick it up,--darling~~," replied Mara, sitting on the couch, relaxed. She was topless with some purple sweatpants. Her hair reached her shoulders and she decided to put some contact instead of those stupid glasses.
"Don't fucking call me that, only he can..." replied Alumm to Mara's 'darlin'.
"Ohh~~ So you do have a lover." bothered mara. That was the first time she heard about Alumm's lover. She had some idea since he would make an imaginary scene before having romantic action with Dreida, poor her, being played like a fool.
"Fuck you." heard Mara in the distance before Alumm hanged up the phone on her nose.
"That son of a bitch." said to herself, clenching to the phone. She looked at the clock on her phone, it was 10 pm. It was late and this girl needs her beauty sleep. She goes to her new room paying not a bit of attention to the darkroom. She snuggles in her bed and goes into a deep slumber.
* * *
The phone alarm was loud, mean and rude. Mara was in the middle of her dream before that bastard of the phone woke her up. Who even put an alarm this early in the morning. She stopped the ringing. Her anger and frustration started to grow inside of her.
Her hair was a mess like a tangle earphone cables and she could barely see with her horrible eyesight. Even worst, Alumm was in Dreida's kitchen with some scientific object she could not name for the love of God.
"The fuck, why are you fucking here," asked Mara to Alumm, her charm and lust all disappeared this morning, replaced with frustration.
"I'm making Emeraude with the small blood sample you had, just give me your kitchen for an hour," replied Alumm, his eyes on his experiment. He looked like a real mad scientist, but a handsome one.
"Tsk, whatever, not my kitchen anyway," said Mara, clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed.
Mara decided to take a long shower in the bathroom, wishing to wash all her frustration with it. She put on a revealing blacktop hanging from her neck and low waisted jean completing her outfit. She was more, calm than this morning.
When she opened the door to resume her activities. Alumm was still there, a bag filled with few green shards in hand.
"Look at these beauties, with that, I can start the process!" exclaimed Alumm, excited to start his plan. He waved the Emeraude shard at the light, admiring the shine they got.
"What process? Is it about your secret Lover~~" asked Mara with a smirk on her face. She was standing on the wall separating the living room and kitchen, arm and leg crossed.
"It's none of your business. Go search for Ophelia, I need more of her blood" said Alumm, demanding that Mara do as he says. After all, Alumm did not do all of this for Mara to slack off.
"Sure big boy, tell me where she is and I can drop there is an instance," replied Mara, taking the deadly knife and putting it in Dreida's backpack.
"You can figure it out on your own, I have more important thing to do," said Alumm while drawing a door on the wall with a white crystal and taking all his junk with him.
"Just search in Dreida's memories, she knows how to," explained Alumm before he disappears through the opening. The portal closes as soon as Alumm is on the other side.
"That jerk," exclaimed Mara, her annoyance increased. She clenches her fist and bites her pink lips.
Mara sat on the couch and started to meditate, both of her legs crossed with her hand together. She could feel her spirit leaving her body as she arrives in the archive of Dreida's memories. Since Dreida is a big bookworm for digitals books, her memories are stored on a phone. Each phone represents each year, and since she had lived more than 100 years. There should be 122 cell phone worth of memories.
It did not matter much because when mara arrived to retrieve the information she wanted, The main phone, which you can search for a piece of certain information, was locked with a password. Last time she came here, there was not a single code to input. Is it Dreida's doing?
Mara walked the long corridor, reaching the main house. When she reached the end of the hallways, a single dark door stood in her way. In there, in the front room, where you can observe the body's view. It was the room Dreida was looked in.
Mara quickly opened the door to avoid any slip, Dreida could escape and get to the control panel. She saw Dreida, meditating, but for what reason?
"Hey Dreida~~, what are you up to meditating like that?" asked Mara to Dreida, eyes closed.
"It's none of your business, Mara." replied coldly Dreida to Mara. Of course, she was not going to cooperate with Mara.
"Ughh, it's the second Fucking time someone told me that!!" snap Mara, clenching her fist as her slender face becomes redder and redder. She still managed to keep calm, she had to ask one last question.
"So... why the fuck does the main phone has a password." asked mara, stopping her foot and crossing her skinny arms.
"I don't know, I am stuck in the hell hole," said Dreida, still closing her eyes and paying not a single drop of attention to Mara.
"Don't fucking say I don't know, I know it was your doing." snap back Mara, she is done with Dreida bullshit. She lanches at Dreida, If she was not going to answer, she will have to force her, defenceless nobody of an angel!
Mara hears Dreida chanting a spell in a non-angelique language. When Dreida opens her eyes, she no longer had the brown in her eyes.
'Her eyes are green, the same green as the sorcerer of de-.' thought Mara, as she feels a pointy object oh her neck.
"If you move a muscle, I will plunge this knife into your neck and your soul will slowly burn to death," Dreida warns Mara, but Mara already knew it was a bad idea from the start. Since Dreida opened her eyes, she knew, she knew.
"Now let me out of here so I can have my body back," Dreida demanded to the immobilized Mara, while she walked to the entrance.
"I don't decide, Alumm gave me your body and free will, you are stuck here," replies Mara, maybe it was too cocky of her, but if Dreida had any chance of getting out of here, Mara had to be alive.
Dreida glance at Mara before trying to open the door, it had a simple round doorknob, similar to the ones Dreida had in her hometown house. She holds her whole body on the door, one foot on the door and her hand on the doorknob. It will not budge.
"Sign, guess it can't be helped," Dreida said while giving up on the door and lowering her weapon. "I know why you are here, might as well give it to you..."
"Heh, I didn't think you would give it to me that~~ easily," said Mara, stretching her body.
"Oh don't think I will. Here, give me all of those items and I will give you access part of my memories." Dreida smiled as she handed to Mara an old list of ingredients, but for what? As Mara hovers the list of 6 elements, she recognizes one of them, items from the pit.
"Wait, you want me to get that, you got to tell me where to find that, I don't have a crystal or an obsidian shard," Mara exclaimed.
"Don't worry, just listened to me and I will guide you," Dreida reassured Mara.
