Bella slammed her foot into
Chasity’s stomach, rolling her backwards through the rocky dirt that surrounded
Maple’s cabin.
Chasity’s coughed and struggled
to breathe in. Her eyes were barely open and she could see the fear in Leefah’s
eyes from the windows as she banged trying to break out.
Leefah stepped back and took her
wand out but was stopped by Maple.
Maple walked to the door and
rubbed her hand along the doorknob and nodded. “It’s Magic Lock…”
Leefah stomped her foot angry
and ran back to the window, “We have to help her!”
Mitzi looked up drained of energy,
“What’s Magic Lock granny?”
Maple looked back and sighed,
then hobbled over to her cupboard for a few packets of tea. “Magic Lock is
spell used by upper level casters to lock themselves away for study.
Unfortunately, that Woman has been gifted the touch by a Higher Level, perhaps
that ringmaster, and has locked us in.”
Desirae raised her head, “How do
we unlock it? We need to get back out there and save Georgia and Morgana!”
Leefah and Maple looked over
surprised, “You know where Georgia is?!” they asked.
Desirae nodded, “Me and Morgana
got kidnapped by this… really pitch black figure… and they took us to the
circus. We tried to break out but… Only I managed to escape… I ran straight her
since I knew Maple would be able to be of use and saw you hanging out with her
through the cracks under the stage.”
Leefah walked over and hugged
Desirae excitedly, “Awesome! Then we gotta get to the circus now don’t we?” she
said with a teasing wink.
Desirae looked surprised, “But…
we’re trapped inside….”
Maple continued her story, “The
only way to break out of a magic lock, is to either knock out the wizard/person
who cast it, or to use Teleportation Magic to reach the other side. Quite a
nifty invention isn’t it?”
Desirae stood up feebly, “Do any
of you know how to use it?”
Maple nodded to Leefah, “I was
quite a mentor for Leefah, she’ll go.”
Desirae stomped her foot
forward, clenching the wound on her arm she had been inflicted with by Joker’s slicing
cards. “I’m going too! I owe it to Georgia!”
Maple finished making her tea
and walked over to Mitzi and Desirae, handing each of them a cup. “Actually,
you three will be going. Mitzi needs the practice, she may not look like much
and is quite the Ditzy Chick… but she’ll help you out.”
Leefah looked over at her
confused, “What about you Maple?”
Maple smiled and held her hand
up, “I’ll stay here dears, I’ll find what the moon does and send Chasity over
with the info.
Leefah clasped her hands against
her face in shock, “Oh crap! We forgot about her!” she ran over to the window
and saw Chasity racing around Bella in a circle.
Chasity flapped her wings at
almost light speed and zoomed around, trying to make Bella dizzy. She looked
over and saw Leefah and stopped. She shot her hand up and winked at Leefah, “Don’t
worry Leelee! I got this, I’ll catch up later!”
Leefah’s tension grew less, “She’s
so crazy…” She then turned around and walked to Desirae and Mitzi, who looked
full of energy.
Mitzi looked at her body happily
and amazed, “Granny, it looks like your tea worked!”
Maple nodded wisely, “Yes dear,
I taught one class of Potion Making but felt it was too boring so I taught
myself the rest of the time.”
Mitzi and Desirae ran over and
stood behind Leefah.
Leefah held her hands together
and closed her eyes as though she were about to recite a prayer.
Suddenly, a magic circle formed
around her, Mitzi, and Desirae that enveloped them in a bright yellow light.
Then, Leefah, Mitzi, and Desirae all disappeared into the light and exited
Maple’s cabin.
Maple then turned and walked
back to her library to continue her search for the Moon, but ultimately gave up
and walked to her computer to look up shirtless picks of hunky men.
Outside, Chasity and Bella
continued their fight. Chasity had become battered and bruised, while Bella had
barely a scratch on her.
Bella jumped and shot rapid
kicks at Chasity’s head, but Chasity managed to narrowly dodge.
Chasity jumped up and flew upwards
out of the reach of Bella’s kicks.
Bella slammed her foot on the
ground, making a mini dent in the rubble.
Chasity called down to her, “So,
why are you here belly dancer!”
Bella crossed her arms, “Orders…
I’m helping someone because they asked…”
Chasity narrowed her eyes at
Bella, “Did that ringmaster send you….”
Bella looked up at her, “If you
mean Joker, then yes… thought I wouldn’t say he’s REALLY calling the shots…”
Chasity raised her eyebrows
surprised, “Why do you say that…”
Bella looked up and saw she had
an opening. She jumped at the speed of light and slammed her foot down on
Chasity’s head, slamming her back down onto the ground. She landed back down
and dusted her hands off, “Because he can’t really call the shots… We’re his
friends….”
Chasity looked up, her head had
a small wound in it that was trickling blood down across her face. “Would he
really order his friends around like this… making you attack someone you can’t
beat!”
Bella tssked and shot forward
again.
Chasity rolled to the side and
shot her boot out, tripping Bella, and making her tumble onto the ground. Chasity
stood back up and raised herself into the sky, “I’m sorry but I have all info I
want to learn from you, perhaps your friends have more for me?” she brought her
hands outwards and opened her palms. Her body then became enveloped in a bright
Orange Aura.
Bella looked at her, analyzing
the move she was making.
Chasity landed back down, “This
aura is called Fairy Dance… Fairies use it to increase their power! I guess you
could say it’s a nod to your fighting technique…”
Bella gasped, realizing that
Chasity knew how she fought.
Chasity winked, “Considering
Fairies have to fight more hand to hand combat than a Spellcaster. I know
practically all techniques, Belly Dance is what yours is called correct? It
makes your body move in ways that seem normal but is actually just trickery.”
Bella grit her teeth, “So what!
Doesn’t mean you’ll win!”
Chasity laughed and bent over,
watching Bella near her.
Bella then stopped and stepped
backwards, “You… you aren’t attacking…”
Chasity winked again, “You aren’t
close enough. Fairy Dance technique is a way in which I can move quicker and
act quicker. If you thought I moved fast before, just wait and see what I can
actually do!”
Bella charged forward again
angrily, “I don’t care what you think you can do! I’m doing as I’m told!”
Chasity charged forward as well
with her fist raised, “And I’m doing this because Leelee needs my help! The
less people she has to deal with, the better!”
The two girls slammed their
fists together, causing a massive increase in power to surround them. They
bother grit their teeth as power flowed past their faces and upwards, causing a
minor explosion that knocked both of them back onto the ground.
Bella spit onto the ground and
stepped back up to attack but stopped when she looked directly into the eyes of
Chasity, who had already moved and was looming over her.
Chasity winked, “Now then, I’ll
be taking my victory for Leelee!” she said excitedly, and stomped her foot on
Bella’s stomach.
Bella let out a loud blood
curdling scream and rolled around on the ground in pain.
Chasity stepped back and watched
as Bella felt pain sear her body. “Belly Dance, the only way to defeat it is to
attack the person’s stomach. Simple as that.”
Bella slowly stopped rolling
around and gasped for air. Her body felt weak and she was drained of all her
energy, she had been defeated.
Chasity looked around at the
small mess they had made.
Maple made her way out of her
house, “It’s about time you beat her dear!”
Chasity rubbed her head
awkwardly, “Lemme guess… you’re gonna grade me…”
Maple shook her head, “Not now!
You need to head down to that circus and help the girls, If I’m correct, there
are four more people to deal with and there are six of you!... Considering you
all just need to save Georgia and that Morgana girl…”
Chasity grit her teeth, “You
mean Horgana got captured…. Can’t we just let them keep her?”
Maple sighed, “Now isn’t the
time… The blood moon is beginning to form.”
Chasity looked back off the
cliff that leads down to Sunset Valley from Maple’s cabin. “Do you know what they
want with the blood moon?”
Maple nodded, “They want the
power it gives. Apparently, all supernatural with in the moon’s light receive a
massive increase in their power!”
Chasity spread her wings out, “Considering
their ringmaster, Joker, is calling the shots… I’ll bet that he’s after it… But
for what reason?”
“I’ve put two and two together,
He’s after the resurrection spell.” Maple replied.
Chasity looked back, “Resurrection….
Zaleria’s spell? Why that one?”
Bella looked up weakly, she knew
the answer… but she pretended to stay passed out. She couldn’t bear to speak
the truth.
Chasity clenched her fist and
looked down at the Circus tent confidently, “Whatever the reason, we’ll stop
them! We’ll let you know how it goes Maple, cya later! Leelee needs me!”
Chasity called as she zoomed off towards the circus.
Maple smiled, “These girls are
never going to change are they….” She looked down curiously at Bella. She
walked over and placed her hand on her head, “You’re having conflicted emotions
dear…. Why don’t you come inside?”
Bella’s eyes shot open surprised
and she looked at Maple’s caring elderly face. “What do you mean?”
Maple let out a tiny chuckle, “I
mean, lets go inside and talk. You’re bottling up a lot and it’s not healthy
for a young girl like you. Now come inside dear, let’s have a cup of tea.”
