Parasite | Kyra & Wes |

[char]

On a drive to the forest, not once in her wildest dreams did Jace think she would see what she had seen. She saw a mechanic dry-humping a car, a bunch of old people playing catch and kiss outside the retirement home and not to mention an orgy going on in the middle of the streets. It was far, far too extreme and Jace felt absolutely shit about it. It was all her fault, if she hadn't been so fucking selfish. It was all her. She felt lonely and needed love, and not only did she read Zach's aura and see that it wasn't true, but she made a fool out of herself. A pathetic girl messing with power beyond her, and not to mention she had turned Los Angeles into a brothel. Maybe there was love in Los Angeles, maybe Jace jump-started it for a few lucky people in Los Angeles. But it wasn't enough, she had to stop it. She had tried summoning Aphrodite to break the spell, but she couldn't. She needed some other circle members. Therefore she was going to the woods where they could embrace nature and use its energy to stop this.

Everette had a night class and Claire had her own problems because of the spell, so the last choice Jace had was Kyra and Wes. When she called them, they agreed and Jace set off to the forest. But it was weird. Who knew what would happen? Jace seriously didn't know who they were anymore. Wes was always a self-absorbed jerk and Kyra was always a bitch, and not to mention what happened between them. Jace knew that Kyra and Wes were going to leave the circle, she knew they were going to use Jace's magic to stop it. But Jace wouldn't let them, but they seemed to want to help. That is if it wasn't a trick or not. Jace couldn't really think of that now, she had to get this done. So driving down a bumby road, she saw the light of a burning fire within the trees so she slowed down and stopped the car. She reached into the back of the car and grabbed a bag full of ingredients and jumped out of the car.

Walking quickly, Jace moved across and passed the trees. They had better be there, unless some psychotic rave or something was hear in the forest. God, had she even been to a party since she had been in college? Maybe one, or two, but most of her time goes towards studies, hanging out with Jayla and Axel and witchcraft. Witchcraft, one thing she thought she wouldn't do. The thing that made her life so hard now took a main priority. Already she had used it to help open a portal to hell, fight off a vampire, stop a time-stopping witch hunter and make her ex love her. But now it needed to be controlled, needed to be amended and she needed Kyra and Wes to do it. "Kyra? Wes? It's Jace, I'm here". She called as she approached, wincing at the roaring fire in the baren space and holding her hand up to block to the light of the fire, looking around for them.

[wickedmagik]

So this is where it was going to happen? They would have Jace isolated all alone out here, where they would finally be able to stop whatever it was that was going on. Wes was alot of things, but an idiot wasn't one of them, not in the slightest. Sure he had some feelings deep down that he thought would never coaxed out of him, but something else had to be up since they did just that, they poured out of him and created a secret that would splinter this new little break away group if it got out. Sighing irritably, as usual, Wes jogged towards the spot where they asked Jace to meet them.

Of course they left out the part about stripping away her magic to be used for their own end game. Why would Jace still agree to come if she knew they were done with the circle? Was she that desperate for help controlling her powers that she finally turned to them? Given their expressed dislike for for each other, he figured that never in a million years would Jace have ever agreed to come be alone with them while they tampered with magical forces. Stuffing his hands into his jacket pockets, Wes left the shelter of the tree line just as he saw Jace come to a halt and call out for them.

"She'll be here, she's running late I guess." Wes said, speaking suddenly as he approached. He figured the sound of his shoes snapping twigs and shuffling leaves would alert her. If not, then he would take pleasure in knowing that he had startled her. He'd never taken the time to full appreciate Jace or even look in her direction more than he had to while they were at circle meetings. She was pretty cute, he would have to give her that, though that was irrelevant to the overall end game here. If everything went according to plan, he had a feeling that only himself and Kyra were even going to walk away from this.

"What did you do Jace? What spell did you cast that's so bad you need our help to try and stop it?" he asked, raising a brow curiously. Everyone knew that Jace needed to be controlled, but no one else had the fortitude to step up and try.

[kyra Pandora Chambelain]

After everything which had happened between Jace and herself recently, she couldn't deny that she wasn't startled when Jace called asking for her help with magic. She must have been desperate, to turn to Wes and herself for such a thing. But it worked into their favor, Wesley had a plan. He explained to her prior to hearing from Jacinta that he had visited someone who would be able to help them out with their goals of seeking more power, but he didn't go into it any further over the phone. She didn't understand what Wesley met, but she did know that he had some strange connections in the magic department, and she never really got into it because she trusted Wesley completely in whatever he did. He knew what he was doing, he may not look it, but he is smart and really knows what it takes in order to survive in this world. She had faith in his plan. She just hoped he knew what he was doing.

But why the forest? Of all places to meet, she wants to meet in the forest? Wesley seemed to like this idea, where she was isolated from everyone, just with them alone. She was still shaky on the whole idea of what was happening. Wesley had it all planned out, but she was weary of what would happen. Even though her quest for power overweighs everything else, she had hung out with Jacinta a lot and she really didn't have anything against her apart from her undeserving right to powerful magics which people like herself or Wes might appreciate more.

She saw the two of them already there, in conversation. She walked down, making herself known as she stared at them both, before moving near Wesley. "So, before you tell us why you so kindly invited us to a forest of all places, would you care to let me guess what the reason was? The all-so-good magical princess just happened to muck up a spell again. Didn't I tell everyone this was going to happen? But no one listens to me, now do they?" She smirked softly as she begun moving foward, looking foward to Jacinta's response. Why else would she ask them of all people, after all?

[char]

And this when superficial and super-stupid rear their ugly heads. Jace looked at them from the light of the fire, trying to smile but she couldn't. It wasn't a meet and great chilltastic evening, especially if it involved the gruesome twosome. It was serious. This had gone extremely wrong and Jace had to fix it, well she needed them too. The bigger the circle, the stronger the spell. And to reverse the whole spell done to the city, it wasn't going to be easy. But Jace realized why she needed them. One reason, to realize that she wasn't a bad person in comparison to them. And another, that she could reverse the spell because of herself. She loved Zach, and a part of her didn't want to change that or want that to be changed. She still loved him and always would, but it needed to be done. Relentless of if he ever talks to her again, she needed to set things straight, and she needed them to do this for her.

But it couldn't come without some smart ass comments. First it was Wes, who actually predicted the same thing. This either meant he was smart or that they knew she would always do something wrong. As she looked away from him, already feeling like crap she looked to Kyra and got a mouthful from her too. When she stopped, Jace thre up both hands and shook her head annoyingly. "Okay then, right. Jace always makes mistakes. But I need help, okay. And unfortunately for all of us, it has to be youse too". She desperately wanted to say something about their plan about the circle, but decided to hold it back for now. She needed them, so she couldn't be smart now. She crossed her arms and sighed as the cool breeze shot through her hair, and she decided to tell them what was really going on.

"I did a spell. A love spell, to make someone come back to me. But it backfired, and basically the universe said if you want his heart open to you then all heart will be. Everyone in Los Angeles is infatuated with everything and anyone they desire, haven't you realized?". They had probably been going at it like bunnies all day to be able to notice. But Jace had to get this over and done with fast. She couldn't let it keep going, so as she turned from them she knelt down to open her bag to get stuff out. She had candles, incense of course, another picture of Zach. She was trying to rush and get everything out, but when she looked at the picture she stopped for a second. Zach. Her first love and her always, but she had to let him go now. Did she want to? No. Did she like it? No. But it had to be done. Looking at the picture, she spoke under her breath a little spell for him and this time, just for him. "To you my beloved, I let your heart to soar. So you make love, like you never loved before. Aphrodite bless him, Ares plan his battles. May Artemis lay dorment, I will fight for him". A tear rolled down her cheek, but it had to be done.

OOC: I think we should get this part of the plot done quickly, so if you don't mind do you think Kyra and Wes could start the power extracting spell now ?

[wickedmagik]

As Kyra arrived, he watched as always as she circled around to his side, as she always did. The two of them usually gravitated towards each other, even when there was a barrier of communication between them sometimes. The spell was already prepared, they were actually standing on top of it, and all that it needed was the blood of the recipients as a catalyst to begin. However he would give the two ladies time to say their piece, as he had no idea what exactly would happen except for the fact that Jace would lose her powers. There was no garuntee with black magic, especially a ritual such as this, that it would even work as they had intended for it to.

For a moment, Wes would even seem kind in his reply, even if it was all a setup. "We all make mistakes, Jace. It's just that you have more powers than anyone, you can't afford to be like everyone else, you have to be.. better." he said, furrowing his brow as he silently tried to follow what he just said. Yeah, that seemed odd enough to put anyone off if they knew Wes, though he was hoping that it would catch her entirely off guard when he said it. Taking his hands out of pockets, he produced a small dagger, crooked blade with a dark mark partially blocked from view by his hand.

"I actually took the liberty of starting to prepare a spell just incase, but I needed help finishing it." he said, there was a kind smile on his face, as what would come next would startle everyone. Taking Kyra's hand, Wes would cut across the palm, and then quickly his own. Spilling blood onto the ground around the fire, that was when things would become interesting. The sky would darken as storm clouds rolled in, thunder, lightining, and heavy winds. Beneath them the ground would start to shake, a pentagram drawn in the dirt would show it's self now as Wes' petty glamouring spell could no longer hide such a powerful spell.

"This is where we help you control it, Jace." Wes said, smirking at her darkly, as if taken over by some evil spirit. "Sit enim punis malos, et scelus plurimum novum" Wes chanted, though the voice sounded far from his own. There was an echoing duality, something driving him, as he could literally feel his own soul tearing from the power he brought forth. There was a fiery burning sensation in his veins, as Kyra would most likely be able to feel as well while the powers started to be torn from Jace, who would most likely try to resist this invasion. It was too late to stop it now, and there would be blood on his hands by the end of this.

The only thing that could complete the spell now was Jace's death, Wes came prepared for that. In this circle, Wes and Kyra held all the power as the spell empowered them to drain away her magic like a parasite. It would be painful, however quick, and Jace would know that she had made a grave mistake by turning to them.

ooc: I hope that's alright haha.

[kyra Pandora Chambelain]

This entire situation was quite frankly, bizarre, yet Wesley managed to convince her that this would fall straight into their plan and make it all easier for them. Wesley had been acting stranger lately. And not the whole 'busy with football' strange either. He was going to mysterious places, he mentioned that it was part of their plan to get powerful magic as he knew 'dealers' as they were referred to, who would be able to help them with their problem and break away from the circle. He seemingly had this entire situation all mapped out in his head. Thats what she always found so attractive about Wesley; he wasn't the smartest guy when it came to school work, but devising plans and strategies was a whole different ball game altogether. She was worried though, in case this backfired like ninety nine percent of Jace's spells did. What would be their backup plan? Did he have one? They would be in the direct firing line of a pretty pissed of Jace, not only that but dealing with the rest of the circle as well. But she trusted Wesley. She had to, he was the only one she could count on absolutely.

She raised her eyebrow at Jacinta, a slight smirk falling onto her face. "A love spell? You managed to screw up a love spell? Jace, I think this is an all time low, even for you. It obviously wasn't as 'universal' as you are claiming, because I didn't wake up next to any muscular hottie the next morning." She looked at Wes with a cute smile. "You know I meant you." She giggled softly, focusing her attention back on Jacinta. "I wasn't affected, and Wesley wasn't affected either, so maybe you couldn't even get that bit right, either?"

[/color] Gosh, just imagine what would happen if it had worked? She could end up with Everette or someone hideous. Jeez, what if Wesley and Claire fell in love? As funny as that was disturbing.

Wesley continued chanting the spell and she had full trust in what he was going to do. She was nervous, anxious and rather scared as well. She started to feel strange vibes within her body, the spell was affecting them and it would likely be affecting Jacinta as well. She knew what her part was now; Wesley was chanting, but she had something else she had to do. Pulling out a small fig from her back, she glanced at it, watching it light up. She stared up at Jacinta. "Sorry it had to come to this, Jace. But there are people out there who can handle your power better, and actually enjoy it." She half-smirked, before snapping the fig in half, in line with Wesley's chanting. Now, she just had to wait...And watch.

With her back turned, she listened to Kyra's rambles about how crap she is. It wasn't like Jace didn't know, it was just completely broken record. Both of them gaining up on her and she couldn't turn her back. It was rediculous. She had done things close to as worse. Making a car fly when first going for drivers ed, blowing up her birthday cake at her sweet sixteenth surprise party and not to mention glamouring her whole body into a replica of Selena Gomez. This was a scrap at the bottom of her shoe, and even though Kyra and Wes plea not to be under the spell, but she knew they were. She could sense the tainted auras around them, radiating. But it wasn't love for each other. Something else was overpowering the human instinct to love and be together; the instinct to be determined on getting what you want. And whatever it is that these two warfare witches are plotting then Jace hoped she wasn't involved in it. But then she heard the words, and she hadn't even told them the spell yet.

Turning, she looked at them confusedly. It was Wes, chanting Latin really really good. Why was Wes doing a Latin spell? It must have been old, like really old. "Hey, Wes what are you doing?". She asked, but then saw Kyra. This was something else. What were they doing? When Kyra started appologizing, Jace now knew what was up. She was trying to take her power, both of them. No, no they couldn't. She went to raise her hands to stop them, doing whatever magic she could but was too late. "No, don't - ". The fig snapped, and Jace dropped like a bad habit. Her back hit the dead leaves on the ground, screaming in pain. It felt like every muscle in her body was tearing. Tears streamed as she screamed in pain, feeling progressively weak. The power was draining into the Earth and up into the two witches, who she fucking hated at the moment. She could barely breath as she screamed.

Veings bulged in her limps and face, dark veings that split the skin. It was too late, the spell had been started. She choked on her own blood as the power was being drained from her. On Kyra and Wes' defense, they probably didn't know that it would kill her. But Jace's power is genetic, and it is deeply rooted into her mind, body and soul. It was being ripped from her and was tearing her apart. She fitted on the ground, screaming as loud as she could as her skin ripped in large wounds over her body that bled in long red streams. But upon being scared and distressed, she was getting angry. She still could do something, she had too. Slamming her fist on the ground, she screamed out loud. The trees around them began to shake and tremble. The leaves turned blue, the bark fell to the ground and they combusted. Pieces of wood shot in all direction, sending wood everywhere as Jace kept screaming, her eyes shifting from the innocent blue to a devilish red.

[wickedmagik]

Surprisingly it felt great, despite the pain of absorbing such magic. Their was fire in veins, however he was focused, his eyes starting to turn black with the spell he was casting. There was no emotion in his eyes, no expression to show how he felt either way as he chanted the spell. Shifting the dagger in his hand, he whirled it about as if he was an expert knife fighter, which he wasn't, somehow he managed to accomplish odd tasks that he normally had no talent in. With the blade facing the ground, he looked to Kyra for a moment, and only then would he smirk. As she broke the fig, he seemed to have passed from the regular Wes to what seemed to be a power hungry void of a man.

Watching with absolute pleasure as the veins fought against Jace's skin, he could tell that the spell was working, however he had no anticipated that it would kill her. It was obvious what it was doing, tearing her apart from the inside, and so he sought to end it as his final act of mercy. With her death the spell would be sealed, there would be nothing that could interupt the transfer at that point. Taking a slow, calculated step forward, Wes was caught off guard when she seemed to be fighting back.

When she slammed her fists into the earth, the ground around them shook, such power even on the brink of death! There was almost a gleeful expression on his face now, soon it would be his.. or rather theirs. There was a darker side of him being pulled to the surface, one that would even struggle against the bonds of love when it came to power. Picking himself up off the ground, he held out his hand palm up, the dagger in his hand levitating out of it. "There is no use fighting, Jace. The spell was made specifically for handling people like you, behemoths who do not deserve the power they wield. It will be well looked after in it's new home." he said, turning his hand slowly.

Wes watched the show with amusement, the bark scratching and cutting at his face. He seemed unphased by the damage being done to him, as if he was enjoying this display of power. The spell had completely possessed him, he was losing his conscience to it, there was no will except to kill. Holding out his free hand, he used his telekinesis, aided by the siphoning, to cut a path through the swirling debris as he struggled against her. It all came down to this moment, this epic struggle. Surprisingly, with the spell in effect the hand he had used to levitate the dagger could now be used freely.

Reaching out to Kyra with it, he held his hand ready to take hers, ready to join their power and plunge the ceremonial blade into her heart. The moment she took his hand, it meant the choice was made, they wouldn't be able to turn back, and the blade would launch it's self by their will to end this once and for all. "Do you trust me, Kyra?" he asked, smirking at her. "We stop her here, take her power, and we'll form our own circle. We'll be powerful and we'll stop wasting time in some dusty old back room.."

[kyra Pandora Chambelain]

She watched on in focus, and slight horror, as Jace begun to struggle and was in obvious pain, showing her veins bulging on her face. She didn't remember Wesley informing her of the pain that Jace would experience during this whole thing. Sure, she didn't like Jacinta, but witnessing this...Seeing one of her circle members in this kind of pain, was disturbing to the max. She wasn't sure what to do, how to even take this situation. The power felt amazing, coursing through her body, almost engulfing her being. Her eyes became jet black, filled with power and rage as she looked on, turning her head to Wesley and smiling softly when he smirked. It was working, she knew she could count on Wesley. They would finally have power, ambition! And he did this for us, she would have to thank him somehow later. She was sure they could have some real fun now.

But Jace was strong, she was fighting this. But even as powerful as she was, in the state she was now in, she wouldn't be able to, they were draining the power right from her being, it was theirs now. How it should have been from the beginning. She watched as Wesley finished off the spell, levitating a dagger towards Jace. He gasped silently, then turned back to Wesley as he put his hand out for her and asked her to trust him. She smiled sweetly. "Always." She then moved her hand softly, the dagger flying foward towards Jace, but it shot past her and landed into a tree, snapping the dagger into metal shards. She looked back at Wesley. That wasn't in their plan. She believed everything he said and wanted to experience it; their own circle, their own powerful magic...But the way that he was going to go about it was wrong, even she could see that. She couldn't let him kill Jacinta. She moved towards him, pecking him softly on his rough, yet soft lips and running her hand up his muscular arm with a devilish smirk. "Wes, leave her. Killing her won't achieve anything, we have the power. Lets go experience it, we are wasting time." She looked at Jacinta, almost sympathetically for a moment, then back at Wesley, caressing his hard abdonem now. "I want to go try this out." She continued touching his body, sending almost orgasmic surges through Wesley's body, the dark magic so powerful.

[char]

It got to the point that she was sick of screaming. It wouldn't stop, it would never stop. This is how it needed to be. She was given power. She didn't want it, she didn't need it. It didn't allow her to find love, it didn't let her live her life like everygirl should. It just has brought her pain, and misery and death. After blowing up the trees, the magic had already kicked in. Wes protected them as Jace laid there. Was it Jace? The blood covering her and cuts over her boy, she looked like death. She looked like she wasn't that innocent blonde anymore. As the witches played cute, she tried to keep her eyes open as she looked at the dagger hovering in the air. She tried to stop it, freeze it or blow it up - something. But she couldn't. She was weak. So she laid there, and accepted her fate. But then as the dager shot at her, she thought of one thing; Everette and Claire.

They had taken Jace's magic, and now Wes and Kyra were more powerful and crazy then Everette and Claire now. What if they tried to kill them? What if they wanted Ev's power now? It couldn't happen - it just couldn't. Jace's time was up, and she can't be there to protect her friends. But - - maybe.... As it sounded like they were going or something, Jace realized something. The both of them had taken a large amount of her dark magic, but not her elemental magic. Her mothers lineage were of strong nature manipulators, and she still had that and some dark magic. But her magic, is tied into her being. Taking it was killing her - but giving it will kill her. She had to get to Everette and Claire now, so looking at them with dazed eyes she knew she had to go. So looking up at the sky, she focused. Not on dark magic, on her own magic. She felt the breeze rush over her skin, touching her wounds. Then suddenly, she gasped. A bolt of lightning shot from the sky, bolting down on her. It hit her, but didn't kill her. Jace disappeared with the lightning, and reappeared at Charms N' Thangs, in the backroom. She laid on the ground, shaking as she turned her head slightly to see if she could see her friends.

"H - Help me. E-Ev........ C-Claire......... I-I'm so c-c-cold".

[wickedmagik]

Wes stood there for a moment, his eyes flared angrily, however he recovered as the dagger shattered into shards. There was a bad feeling about that single action, as if he would regret not having plunged the blade into her himself. He looked from the broken shards, to Jace, and then finally to Kyra as if he was unsure of what had really just happened for a moment. This was right, this was what he wanted, but the spell wasn't truly complete without them being the ones to finish it.

Registering a look of pure surprise as she was struck by a bolt of lightining, Wes stared at the spot for a moment, wondering where she went. Turning on Kyra, he furrowed his brow and sighed. "We have to try and figure out just happened, this could be bad." he said, though he was seduced by the allure of her power. Now that she was stronger, for some reason he found himself unable to resist her even more. Moving closer to her, he lifted her off the ground, holding her up as he kissed her.

"We're the all powerful now, right? I say let's tear this city up." he said. Rubbing his hands together. He had no idea what the limits were to these powers, but he was truly hoping to find out. Everything in him was itching for battle, to use them one another person. The first person they encountered would not be having a very good day, that was for damn sure. Taking a running step forward, Wes launched himself into a back flip that sent him soaring gracefully through the air to land on his feet some six feet away.

"Let's get out of here, this place is depressing now." he said, being all show off-y about their new powers.
