Episode 9- Bring the past to life

Robin spots in the school newspaper that an old acquaintance of hers, Maizie Adams the necromancer, is helping with an archaeological dig in the Brecon Beacons, where they have recently discovered a T-Rex skeleton. The gang happen to spot Robin reading about this and decide to help her investigate, Chad bringing along his sportsball buddy Finn after it becomes apparent that bringing the whole sportsball team is… impractical to say the least. After Luke gives everyone a lift (apart from Robin on her motorbike), the team arrive and start investigating. Chad and Finn find a body in one of the tents while Robin, Sabrina and Mary have a conversation with Maizie and learn that Tiffany gave Maizie an artifact a few months back, and that she’s been plagued with demon attacks ever since. Maizie rebuffs the team’s offers to help and asks you to leave, at which point Chad and Finn get the chance to tell everyone about the body they found. The team investigate the body, discovering it was killed by magical means, and discuss what to do next.

They are interrupted by the sound of an argument between Maizie and another woman, then silence, and the team splits up to investigate. Chad, Finn, and Mary discover Maizie finishing draining the life from the woman she was arguing with, and barely manage to escape notice when she leaves the tent. Robin and an invisible Sabrina find Maizie’s sister Karen in the main tent performing a magical ritual on the dinosaur bones, a glowing stone at her feet.

Sabrina steals the stone while Robin distracts Karen, effectively interrupting the ritual, and Karen calls for her sister. Maizie rushes over but is interrupted by Chad rugby-tackling her. Maizie’s use of necromantic magic on Chad triggers his transformation, and Finn flees the scene to avoid the same fate.

The resulting fight sees Chad tear out part of Maizie’s shoulder, leaving her horribly injured; Mary cheering Chad on; Robin stopping Chad from killing Maizie outright and eventually her and Mary working together to send Chad away; and Karen and Robin eventually getting Maizie an ambulance to take her to hospital. Sabrina joins Finn in the woods and lets him know that he is also a werewolf, which he takes a while to process. Chad joins Finn in the woods after the fight and eventually turns back to himself, and the gang make their way back home with questions, more questions, a glowing stone that Sabrina secrets in the belfry of the school hall after she finds she cannot store it with the sword, and perhaps a sense of camaraderie that wasn’t there before?
