Nick saw Kat running right past them and down the stairs after her. They ran down and stopped shortly behind her when they saw her stop and stare at something. Nick softly crept over to catch a glimpse of what she was looking at and as soon as he did his mouth dropped open too.
 
 
Philip stopped suddenly behind Nick and breathed his own shock at what he saw "Mother o' god..."
 
Then he heard something behind them.  Mitchell was coming....
 
"Nick.. we better hurry."
 
The doors to the library started to shake and the door to the roof behind them started to rattle.

"My bride to be has her hands full." Mitchell drawled before reaching down to take Derek by the neck with one hand and squeeze hard "And we still have to teach your second in command a lesson in pain he won't soon forget.  How do you think he'll feel with you dead at his feet and Julia begging for death after I plant my seed in her, hmm?"
 
Mitchell smiled cruelly "I think I'll even sweeten the deal and kill Alex just so the crime can live with you into the next realm.  Let's go!"
 
With little to no effort and the Precept gasping for breath as he dragged him, Mitchell started toward the door to join the others.
