Ophelia looked at the vial and downed it.
"My name is Ophelia Aurel, my father is dead, so I am currently the owner of Aurel mansion." She spoke softly with closed eyes, waiting for the herbs to kick in.

"You don't have to tell me anything," Noelle said, taking the vial back. "If anyone knows that you're a seer, then you're in danger. And I'm going to bed, I suggest you do too. That potion will tire you out before it works."

Ophelia could already feel the drowsyness, she laid down on the floor and closed her eyes, waiting for the beautiful escape of sleep to take her away.

Noelle drifted off to sleep, dreaming slightly.
"Pox, rash..." Noelle looked over a customer in the shop. "What do you think?" She turned to Sean, and realized that he had the same symptoms. He sat on the couch, his head in his hands, not willing to show his face.
The nightmare continued until Noelle shot up, breathing heavily and sweating profusely.

When the girl awoke, Ophelia was not in the bedroom. She had grown restless and wandered downstairs, now she looked over all of the potions, her pale, delicate hands ran over the smooth bottles and vials.

Darren loosk up at Sean "well lets see it is a lot of potions, so what is your asking price if I agree or it seems fair I will pay it, I should be able to afford most of your offers."

(what is the currency anyway?)
Sean nodded, he usually didn't charge very much, another reason why people usual came to him instead of the much larger shops, if they knew that his shop even existed. He named a price, "that okay?" it was one of his 'offers' as usual, many would say he was crazy for charging a small amount, he ignored them. Mars screeched, the sign of a tragedy, a phoenix's song brought strength, but a phoenix's screech signaled disaster, though it didn't actually cause disaster to strike. Sean suddenly gripped his head, something was going on, he didn't know what.....
Venus, alarmed, disappeared in a burst of red flames, reappearing at Aurel Mansion, she landed on Noelle's shoulder, the flames disappearing. Something is wrong, Noelle, terribly wrong. Sean feels it too.

((Pounds, pence, shillings))
Noelle shuffled down the stairs. "Sean?" She ran into the shop, and threw her arms around her partner. "You're okay!" She smiled, and let go, blushing slightly. "Sorry..."

Sean blinked, a little surprised, then smiled. "I really hope so. Something is wrong though. Did anything bad just happen?" He suddenly looked more serious, Venus had comeback, but she wasn't in the best shape, her left wing was torn and bloodied and her eyes were wild with fear. "Venus!" Sean exclaimed, running to the phoenix, "what happened?"
Something, great and black attacked me, Venus said weakly, her voice shaking slightly, though she was speaking through thoughts, I think it was trying to capture me, I burned its hand though, she added, and Sean caught a hint of pride.

Ophelia observed the scene in silence before speaking in her soft melodic voice, "We are not safe here."
She moved slowly out from behind the rows of potions and faced Sean and Noelle.

"Well the Aurel Mansion is slightly burned, and I had a bad nightmare..." She shook her head. "Its just a dream, you don't have a-" she stopped. "Plague..." She said.

Sean shook his head, "I don't, and you said the Aurel Mansion was slightly burned? And on top of that, Venus is attacked." Venus hummed a low note, she left her perch to sit on Noelle's shoulder. "She's taken a liking to you," Sean observed.

Noelle smiled. "I'm just glad that you don't have a plague..." She blushed slightly. "But the dream seemed really real..."

Ophelia stepped right beside the two.
"We cannot stay here! It is not safe..." She said again. She did not know what danger it was but she saw blood, lots of blood splattered across the potion shop walls.
"The Aurel manison is slighty burned yes, but we can take shelter there for now."
