Fractured DS History #9

Nicholas Blair stood before the tree which had imprisoned Angelique in her Cassandra guise. Yes, the good Reverend Trask had thought his job done, but he hadn't reckoned with the Dark Forces, or Nicholas' ability to bring back the errant witch.

Nicholas stood, hands raised, preparing to begin the incantation to resurrect Cassandra. He stopped and hesitated, considering the situation more carefully. She had fallen in love with Barnabas Collins. Love, of all wasteful things! She had wanted to marry him--how disgustingly doMEStic! She had cursed the man, turned him into a vampire, and somehow, he had beaten her curse. InCOMpetence!

Nicholas dropped his hands and shook his head. "That blonde witch, even brunette, is more trouble than she's worth," he said aloud. "No! I think I'll let her stay gone, and do what needs to be done myself!"

And, leaving the ropes hanging on the tree, his step jaunty, Nicholas Blair headed for Collinwood.

Love, RobinV
