Chapter One

Dani's eyes filled with tears while Thackery happily looked towards his sister Emily. Both of their souls had finally been freed. Emily was calling to Thackery who smiled with utter joy. However, Thackery's smile faded when he looked upon Dani. Her tears slowly rolled down her cheeks as she tried to feel happy for her new friend. Thackery closely leaned in against Dani and placed his mouth near her ear.
"I shall always be with you," he whispered softly. His slight British accent sending chills down her spine. After he spoke those soft words to her Thackery moved his lips from her mouth to her cheek and kissed it. Pulling away Dani continued to let the tears fall and watched as Thackery waved goodbye and headed off with his sister Emily. Before Thackery and Emily disappeared Dani had snapped back to reality when loud music echoed through her ears.

Dani rolled over and reached for her alarm clock. Rubbing the sleep from her eyes to slowly sat up and thought about her dream. It had been ten years since her, her brother, Max and his girlfriend Allison had defeated the Sanderson sisters with help from Billy the Zombie and of course Binx. Binx had filled Dani's heart with contentment. When his cat state had died his soul had gone back to the heavens. It was after that that a piece of Dane's heart had been ripped out and shred.
"Dani, you up?" she heard her mother call from the distance.
"Yeah," Dani threw her covers off her and dragged herself to the bathroom. Afterwards she was dressed simply in blue jeans, black boots and three quarter sleeve burgundy shirt she walked downstairs where her mother and father were already eating breakfast.
"Happy Halloween," her parents said together.
"Happy Halloween," Dani replied smiling. She used to love Halloween, when she was little. However, she was now eighteen and trick-or-treating was just old news to her, especially after that particular Halloween when she was eight.
"Are you and your friends going out tonight?" her mother asked placing a plate of toast in front of Dani.
"Probably not," Dani replied taking a small bite of the toast. "A bunch of them had to take their little brothers and sisters out."
"Ah, like Max had to do with you once upon a time," her father added smirking slightly. Dani and her mother joined him with the laugh before Dani said goodbye and headed off to school.

Dani only had a half of day at school so around one the final bell rang and she walked along the path towards her car. A few minutes later she was home. Placing her bag on the counter she noticed a note left from her parents.
"Went to the Town Hall Party, be back tonight, Love Mom and Dad," Dani read aloud. "Hope it's not as long as that one Halloween." Throwing away the note Dani grabbed a quick drink of the milk from the carton and after she placed it away she felt a hand grab hold of her shoulder. Dani screamed and turned to see Max laughing.
"I always get you with that one," he said still laughing. Dani slightly hit him laughing back.
"Jerk face!" Her and Max then finished the laughing and hugged each other tightly. "Welcome back. How was the honeymoon?"
"Great," Max replied as Allison walked around the corner. She and Dani exchanged hugs and then pulled away. "We missed you."
"I missed you guys too," Dani responded. "So what are you two up to tonight?"
"We were going to head home, unpack and then chill," Allison answered looking over to Max who nodded back. "What about you?"
"I have plans," Dani said in her best natural voice as possible. Every since that Halloween, Dani had always gone to the cemetery and "visited" Binx. She had never told anyone for she didn't want them to worry.
"All right, we'll talk to you later," Max said kissing her cheek. Allison smiled as her and Max left the house. After Dani saw them pull away she went up to her room and threw on her black jacket and started off towards the cemetery.

As the sun set and the moon rose the old Sanderson house really stood out. During the passing ten years Max, Allison and Dani thought it was closed up for good. However, two months three college drop outs calling themselves The Brotherhood broke in and entitled it as their new home. The Brotherhood were known to have practiced witchcraft and learned to have sold their souls. The rumors were true. The Brotherhood comprised of Gavin, Jareth and Bryce were warlocks. Together they had equal strength to that of the Sanderson sisters yet more powerful with the arts of the 21st century.
Gavin was the leader and most powerful. He had a lean frame and his ebony hair matched his dark eyes perfectly. He scared his two companions frequently, but its not like he cared most of the time. He was hell-bent and no matter what thing happened to get in his way he destroyed it without thinking twice.
