Anastasia

To find a demon continued

"Let's take a seat" I announced as we walked to the sofa, in the living room, Julie sat down, and I pulled the coffee table towards her and sat down, on the coffee table, when I was close enough, I looked into her eyes, Julie looked towards Mike, who just shook his head

"Julie, you will answer my questions truthfully, understand?"

"Your majesty, this is crazy, I trust Ju...." Mike started but I interrupted him as I stood

"I don't trust her, Mike, I have no reason to, everyone is a suspect, including you, after I've finished questioning Julie, you're next, so shut up" I shouted at him, he put his hands up in surrender "Julie..." I began again as I sat down

"I have to go" Julie announced as she started getting up, but I held her hand which caused her to look at me
"Sit" I compelled her, she sat "you will answer me truthfully, is that understood?" I compelled to which she nodded, "Did Maya tell you that she's a demon?" I asked to which Julie nodded once again, I looked towards Mike, he had his arms folded, I looked at Julie again, "When did Maya tell you that she's a demon, Julie?"

"On Thursday" Julie told me

"Wait, which Thursday?", Mike asked, Julie said nothing

"Which Thursday did Maya tell you, Julie?" I asked for Mike

"Last Thursday" Julie confirmed what we were suspecting

"Your majesty...." Mike began

"I know" I told him, "Julie where is Maya?" I asked with hopefully enough authority that she would answer

"In a cabin, in the forest" Mike left the room, Julie carried on, "She took me to the forest, to show me the perfect place she had found to get married, I saw a rock and hit her on the head with it, hoping to kill her" she cried

"Why?" I asked I felt I knew the answer but I still asked

"I love him, I love Mike, but he sees me as just a friend, everytime he got a girlfriend I did everything in my power to get rid of her, but Maya? Maya just wouldn't leave, I tried everything so when my dad told me I was incapable of getting the man I want I got angry, and decide to kill her instead, I hit her on the head with a rock, and decided to bury her, but she didn't die, so I tied her up and put her in the cabin I found, I tried so many ways to kill her, but she just wouldn't die" Julie was screaming at this point, and Mike was now back with a duffle bag, "I asked why she wouldn't die, and she told me, she laughed at me, she told me she's a demon, I need to find a way to kill her" she said the last part a little quieter but we heard her

"You need to blink us to her, right now" I told her, Julie nodded as I had compelled her, I gave her my hand to take, she took it, then she gave her other hand to Mike, but Mike shook his head

"I'm not touching you" he announced with so much venom Julie looked scared, so I offered my hand to Mike, he took it gratefully, Julie stood up, and we blinked.

Mike ran to Maya, who was tied to a pipe, sat on the floor, she winced as Mike removed her ropes, I held onto Julie, making sure she doesn't escape, Mike and Maya started kissing and Julie gasped not liking it I just scoffed

"You're so childish" I told her, Maya said a quick thankyou to me as both Mike and Maya left the cabin

"Hey, do you need me to blink you anywhere?" I asked them both jokingly with a wink

"No your majesty, we want to spend time together" Mike answered as he looked at Maya lovingly, I smiled at that and after a small goodbye I blinked Julie straight to Thomas's office. Thomas looked up, from what he was doing.

"Your majesty?" he asked

"Thomas where do we keep prisoners?" I asked oh so sweetly as the woman next to me gasped and cried silently.

"This way" Thomas beckoned me to follow, I did, he took us down a hallway that led to a stone staircase, we climbed down the staires, and the cries and pleadings next to me got louder, we came to what can only be described as a cave with metal bars strategically placed, there were around fifty cells, and most were empty but those that were occupied were occupied by women, I did find that a little strange but then thought that maybe the men's prison was elsewhere.

We found a cell for our newest prisoner, filled out some paperwork then left, I got up to the unitaur statue before Thomas caught up with me

"Your majesty" Thomas called from behind me

"Ahh, yes Thomas, thank-you for showing me to the dungeon"

"That's quite alright, your majesty, but who is she? What has she done?"

"Her name is Julie, and she tried to kill someone, Maya, when she couldn't kill her she kidnapped her kept her tied up in a cabin in the woods" I explained quickly

"Maya, Maya, that name rings a bell, wait isn't that the woman Mike was looking for, the demon? We told him we couldn't help look for her, we don't want demons here, I  can't believe he asked you for help. Your majesty you really shouldn't listen to these people, they will always ask you for favours and to waste your time"

"Actually Mike didn't ask me to find Maya, I offered, maybe if you had done your job as a council leader I wouldn't have to" before he could say anything else I blinked away, showing him this conversation was over.

Back at the library I sat back down where I had sat before and again started my research.
