The worst and difficult part of this church was that there was only one way to get inside the bottom dungeon of this church and the same way out of it.
With the lantern in her hand, both Penny and Father Antonio made their way down the dark stairs along with the lantern in their hands. They didn't take the lantern too far as they placed it on the hooks when they reached the bottom. They could hear the voice of councilwoman Evelyn along with the man who was questioning in the closest dungeon room which was wide and s.p.a.cious to have numerous weapons they were working on by the orders of the council.
Not making much noise, they parted their ways to go to different rooms. They didn't make use of the lantern because it would pull attention to them. Walking in the dark was difficult for some time until Penny decided to light up the place,
"Light," she whispered in the dark and the place suddenly lit up like a small ball of invisible fire that was guiding her as she walked to Father Antonio's room.
It had taken Penny hours until she had finally mastered in bringing out the light by making use of the resources around her. The book Lady Isabel wrote was the book that spoke on how to make use of the elemental abilities and how some of the spells and curses worked only by the hands of some witches. It was because it used the innate nature of the white witch regardless of if the elemental bearer had bestowed the person with the ability.
Reaching the room, Penny opened and closed the door behind her before she started to look at the top of her desk that appeared to be clean. She continued to search for the flask until there stood a line of flasks that was numbered from forty to seventy. Some numbers were missing that left only seven flasks in there.

The truth potion.
Drinking it to test would be a stupid thing to do, was she supposed to be pour everything in the basin but when she turned around, she realized there was no basin.
Father Antonio was going to get caught and with that, she was going to be put under spot too.
Penny picked up the flask that had the highest number, before running her hands across all the other flasks that were lined up there. If Father Antonio was working on the potion for years now, he should be well versed with it, and creating it from scratch should not be a problem, said Penny in her mind.
At the same time, the door to the room opened with bright light with the councilman who had come to search and inspect the room. On-time, Penny had exhausted the light she had been holding on to and moved in the dark without making noise but the man was a vampire and some of the vampires had very sharp ears. Moving away from his sight she stood there like a statue.
"Did you find anything in there?" came the voice of Evelyn. They had come straight into the room so quickly which left Penny on a hot surface.
She had to get out of the room!
The councilwoman stepped into the room, her gun clinking against her belt that made noise as she walked forward. Penny took this opportunity to place footsteps on the ground with the clinking sound and when the woman stopped walked so did she but they weren't the only ones who had come here.
Sister Jera stood at the door who had come to show where the room was on their request while there were two more witches who stood behind her, watching the council members pulling the files to read and going to the table to look at the flasks that were in here.
"What are these?" Evelyn asked the white witch without looking at her.
Jera had no idea what it was and the closest answer she could come up with was, "Water," the woman gave a look at the young white witch as if she was looking at her like she didn't know what went down here.
"It doesn't say so in the book in here," Evelyn said looking down at the book that was on the table that she had flipped.
Penny frowned, not realizing she should have done a thorough check but time had been scarce where Father Antonio had also failed to mention his book. There was no point picking up the flask when the evidence was right here.

When the councilman and councilwoman turned their head for a split second, Penny quickly made a dash and Sister Jera who had been standing at the door didn't know if she had to cough but she did fake sneeze when Penny ran out of the room that had both the council members snap their head to look at the door with a suspicious look.
Penny had stepped out of the room but that didn't mean Eveyln let go of the little steps she had heard. Sister Jera after coughing, tapped both her feet as if she were marching to look at her clothes as if an insect had come to hinder her.
"I thought there was something in here," Sister Jera said, moving her hands around and stopping to tap her feet on the ground. historical
Evelyn narrowed her eyes on the girl. She had been hearing to five hearts beating in the room with the five members in here but after the little sound of feet and sneeze, she realized it should have been four heartbeats because the councilman who accompanied her here was an average vampire whose heart didn't beat and was still like the other lower vampires who had no heartbeat.
"Bring the book with you and bring the flasks out to the bigger room," Evelyn ordered the man before she made her way past the three white witches.
Penny in the meantime had run to the secret room and had placed it in there to step out in time to join the other white witches which was a common room for everyone to work in.
"What are you doing here?" Evelyn asked Penelope as in the council woman's eyes, Penny was only a human and not a white witch, "Don't you know this is the grounds only for white witches?"
