75 | adventure to atlanta
Jordan approached Monica's pink beetle, as the vampire was leant against the side, with her sunglasses atop her head. "She's in Atlanta, Georgia." He answered as the blonde nodded. "Hm, bit of an adventure." She realised.
"Are you sure you don't want us to come?" Lizzie asked as herself, Josie and Hope approached her. The Montgomery shook her head, "All four of you witches will be needed to pull off the ascendant part. This will be really dangerous." Monica reminded them. "And so is going after a rogue hybrid that happens to be an emotionless ripper." Lizzie spoke worriedly, as she took Monica's hands in her own.
"I'm not alone... MG and Kaleb are meeting me there." The vampire smiled. "Just... be careful." Lizzie pleased, before she lurched forward to embrace her girlfriend. "I love you." Monica spoke sweetly, hugging the Saltzman back. "I love you too." Lizzie responded.
Monica and Lizzie shared a chaste kiss, before the other witches said their goodbyes. Jordan and Monica fist bumped, "I'll keep you updated on locations. For now, just focus on getting to Atlanta." Jordan insisted. "Alright, you better be a trusty navigator, little brother." The vampire teased.

Monica had approached a parking lot, where she parked next to a red car, being Kaleb's. The blonde stepped out of her beetle, her heels clicking on the pavement as she approached MG and Kaleb.
"Hi boys." The Montgomery greeted, as MG smiled at the taller girl. "Hey Monica," He responded. "Has Jordan given you a more specific location?" Kaleb asked. Monica shook her head as she pulled out her phone to call her brother, whose contact was labeled as "Witchy Brother 🔮✨"
Placing the phone on speaker, Jordan's voice was finally heard. "Hey Mon." Monica smiled, "Hey, do you have a more precise location?" She asked. "Yeah," Jordan replied, as he was looking at the map he was using for the spell. "She is at church, on the main street."
Monica, Kaleb and MG shared a worried glance, "Alright, start on the other spell, we'll find her now." Monica decided, before the phone call ended. "Alright, let's roll." The Montgomery said to her classmates, as the trio headed back to their vehicles.

Jordan looked at his phone and quickly called Cynthia, with a burning question. The Monroe answered, "Hey sweetie." Jordan smiled, "Hey Mum... um I just wanted to ask you something real quick..." He trailed off.
"Mhm, what's up?" Cynthia asked as Jordan sighed, hesitant to even ask... especially when he was almost sure about the answer. "Is Marcus Kelly dead?"
Cynthia sighed reluctantly, "Yes. He died last night." She answered as Jordan bit his lip, knowing what that meant for him. "Mum.. I don't want to kill— I—"
Cynthia cut him off, "Jordy, don't you worry about it. I'll take care of it. Just stay at the school and lay low, okay?" She assured him. "I'm going to find a solution." Jordan nodded, "Okay.. I gotta go. I love you." He said, knowing he had to go and help Hope and Josie with the next part of their plan. "I love you too, Jordy... and your sister too, give her a hug for me." The Monroe said, causing Jordan to chuckle. "I will.. bye."
Jordan ended the call, before hearing Josie enter his dorm. "Hey." She greeted, causing Jordan to look up. "Hey Jo." He smiled weakly. "Are you.. alright?" The Saltzman asked as Jordan nodded.
"Uh yeah, I'm okay. Where's Lizzie and Hope? We have a spell to do." The Luna witch asked. Josie reached out and took Jordan's hand. "They're waiting for us.. let's go."
Moments later, they were in the gymnasium, where Lizzie had set up a space for them to conduct a spell. Jordan and Josie took a seat on the floor, with Hope and Lizzie. They sat in a circle, the ascendant in the middle of the circle.
The four witches linked hands, before closing their eyes, and chanting a spell.

"Alright, you guys look for other entrances. I'll take the front." Monica said as Kaleb and MG nodded before the trio separated.
Monica pushed the doors to the church open, not stopping to think about how ironic it was... that not only a vampire, but a transgender and bisexual girl was entering the church. In most religions it seemed that being transgender and/or gay was unacceptable.
Usually, she didn't like churches. She respected that people practiced their religions, but she didn't appreciate when others tried to shove it down her throat, especially when it came to her being transgender.
The vampire stopped upon finding a trail of dead bodies, as she entered the church. She exhaled, "Oh Ruby.."
The blonde stepped over the bodies, finding more as she walked into the main part of the church. Her eyes widened in horror, as she could see bodies everywhere, amongst the pews. At the altar stood Ruby, fangs deep into another person.
The blonde zoomed towards the pinkette. Ruby heard Monica approaching and pulled the person away from her face, as her bloodshot eyes looked to the blonde. "Don't take another step! I'll snap their neck." She hissed. "You don't want to do that." Monica warned.
MG and Kaleb entered the church, as Ruby glanced at them. "What are you all doing here? Hoping to appeal to my emotions or something? Because it's not going to happen." The Waithe hummed.
"I finally feel great... I'm not sitting around like a pathetic little girl, crying over her family." Ruby shrugged as Monica frowned. "You're not pathetic— you're human! Well.. metaphorically." She paused. "Mourning those you have lost is far from pathetic... it's normal."
Monica took a step towards Ruby, while Kaleb and MG kept their distance but were prepared to jump in if anything were to happen.
"I know what it's like to lose everything... please Ruby, let me help you." Monica pleaded, though Ruby glared as Monica moved closer to her. The pink haired hybrid gripped the human's head, prepared to snap it to spite Monica.
"Take no for a fucking answer, Monica!" The hybrid growled, before having another idea. Ruby dropped the person's barely conscious body, before beginning to transform into a werewolf. Monica looked to Kaleb and MG, "Get out of the church!" She demanded. "What about you?" Kaleb asked with concern. "I'm gonna have to distract her... until Part 2 kicks in." Monica admitted, hoping Hope, Lizzie, Josie and Jordan would hurry up with their end of the spell.
"Come on." MG tried to usher Kaleb along, as he tore his eyes away from the IT girl. Never did he expect in his life that the Queen Bee would put her life at risk for a plan.
Ruby growled, now in her wolf form as her bright yellow eyes glared at the girl. The Waithe roared fiercely before she charged at Monica. "Aah!" The vampire squeaked before zooming around the church, trying to avoid the werewolf who kept chasing her.
She did a few laps of the church, merely avoiding the angry wolf who wanted so desperately to attack her. "Come on witches... hurry the fuck up." The blonde thought.
Monica raced into the confessions booth, slamming the door shut. No one was in the other side of the confessions booth but nevertheless Monica called out, "I would like to confess a sin— my best friend is trying to kill me!!"
"Ruby..?"
The wolf span around, her eyes landing on Rafael, or at least an astral projected version of him. His eyes were wide, as he faced Ruby... as if he couldn't even recognise her.
Monica exited the booth, noticing Ruby looking as though she was going to transform back into her human form. Quickly, she shoved the Waithe into the booth as well as her clothes, that were surprisingly not too torn up.
After changing, Ruby exited the booth, as her tear filled eyes landed on her twin. "Rafi?" She asked, as Rafael paused. He was still processing the sight before him, which the witches had warned him of yet he still couldn't hide that he was shocked. The taller Waithe looked at Ruby, anticipating her next move.
Monica felt as though she was holding her breath, as she waited to see if Ruby would flip the switch at the sight of her twin. As Ruby blinked away her tears, which were clearly an act, the Waithe smirked. "What? You really thought that would work?" The hybrid asked.
"Not exactly." Monica confessed, before she managed to get close enough to Ruby to snap her neck. Rafael cringed, before he approached the Montgomery.
"I really thought that would work." He confessed as Monica shook her head, "I knew it wouldn't... I just hoped it would have." She admitted.
Kaleb and MG reentered the church, seeming surprised by the fact that Ruby was unconscious. "Did she turn it back on?" MG asked uncomfortably. "No." Monica and Rafael answered in unison.
"I guess we better head back to the school so Part 2 can commence." Monica admitted before she looked to Rafael, "Are you sure you're comfortable with this?" She asked.
Rafael nodded, "Of course I am. She's my twin and I'm determined to get her back." He answered. "Our parents have been ejected from the Prison world so it'll just be Ru and I. I think I can through get to her."
Monica nodded, "I still think Hope and I should help." She admitted as Rafael shook his head, "Have some faith in me Queen bee, I'm gonna bring my sister back. I have an idea."
"But how are you going to get her home? Won't she wake up before then?" Rafael asked as Monica shook her head, "I've stocked up on vervain and wolfsbane injections for this very moment." She confessed.

AUTHORS NOTE
Anybody who read the original story knows that Ruby flipped the switch back upon seeing Rafael and the disturbed look he had... but I decided to stretch it a bit more to give us another chapter of no humanity Ruby.
That means the next chapter is brand new content and not just reedited old writing. I'm really excited to share it with you guys.
