Chapter 2 Princess in distress

  • KIRANA'S POV
  • "Mom, what's going on, why do I have to leave"
  • “Well we just received information that the dark Elves have stolen Mckzene's body “Mom said while rushing to her room.
  • "What...Dad? "I screamed while following behind with Reenie.
  • "Yes, and the dark Elves are rebels ,so there motives must be bad" She replied.
  • "But mom, that doesn't answer my question, why do I have to leave?" 
  • “Because you have been entrusted with the duty of protecting the ancient seal from your father, the dark Elves are capable of releasing his soul from the neither world, and once your father Is freed, he will come for the scroll” Mom explained as we entered her room.
  • "But Aunt, the priestess stopped him before right? So she will just have to do It again" Reenie chipped In.
  • "No Reenie, the priestess Is old now, and moreover Mckzene Is in cohort with the dark Elves, they will take possession of his soul and make him more powerful than any other wizard, so the best strategy is to flew with the scroll".
  • "To were mom? Were exactly am I going?" I asked while trying my best to digest the whole situation.
  • "The elders and priestess have decided to send you to earth" Mom dropped the bombshell.
  • "Earth???" Reenie and I screamed simultaneously 
  • "Yes sweet heart, Its the best place we can think of""
  • "But mom I have only read few things about earth, how am I going to survive there" I asked feeling sad
  • Mom brought out a very Gigantic book and handed It to me.
  • "Here... the priestess sent It, she said It contains all her knowledge about earth, you are eighteen years old and Reenie Is twenty, im sure you two will do just fine"
  • "Mom.. I don't want to go" I half cried but she didn't seam to care
  • "Mom, why are you been so calm about this, doesn't it bother you"
  • "Of course I am bothered" mom uttered now breaking down with drops of tears making there way down her chicks
  • "I'm sending my only child away to some place I know nothing about, Its a very difficult decision but we cant deny the fact that you are the princess of this kingdom and Its your duty to protect our world, If it were left for me, I would never let you go but thats not the case
  • Look Kira you are my world, I am sure you will over come this, you will be fine, I promise, now get your bags and come to the temple, I will go tell the priestess to open the portal to earth" mom concluded and walked out.
  • I sank onto my bed in tears, what will become of my dreams, and how will I survive in these whole new world.
  • "Kira..I...I...I will...Will go and get my bags" Reenie stuttered and left.
  • I went to my room and started packing. I cant believe that I am leaving all this behind, my home, my school, my friends, and my world.
  • I picked up my stuffed toy(a doll) I am very emotionally attached to this thing, when I was a kid, I never went to bed without it by my side.
  • I pecked it and dropped it on my bed. I turned to my left and hanging on the wall was a picture o9f me and my parents, I was just five then.
  • My dad used to be very nice to me, he would take me around the ten kingdoms with his chariot, I cant believe that the same person who has given me so much joy was now the reason for my sadness.
  • I looked in the mirror and my eyes had turned red, that always happen when I am sad.
  • As I was about to leave, I took a last look at my flying broom stick. I chuckled as I remembered most of the crazy adventures I had gone to with this very broom.
  • “Goodbye room, goodbye castle and good bye my beloved westhan” I muttered And walked out as tears flowed down my eyes like a river.
  • BARON’S POV
  • I flew to the dwarf kingdom in the form of an eagle
  • The dwarf king’s son who is also a friend of mine is terribly down with sickness and I was called to heal him.
  • It’s one of the elves many abilities, the power of healing hands.
  • I landed in front of the castle gate and transformed back to an elf.
  • When I got into their castle, I had to keep my head low to avoid hitting the castle roof. Their houses are as short as they are.
  • I got into Nickel’s room and there he was, covered up in a blanket.
  • “Baron! Thank goodness you are here, please save my son” his mom begged in tears.
  • “Aunt, please stop crying, I will heal him right away, you should wait outside and let me take care of my friend”
  • “Okay, I will leave now” she said and walked out, shutting the door behind.
  • I held his hand and shut my eyes then telepathically connected his brain waves and mind to mine.
  • In order to heal him, I need to know the cause of his ailment.
  • I saw him, he was in a dark corner, he was in a lot of pain, he was bitten by something that possesses black magic, maybe a dark elf.
  • I opened my eyes and the vision disappeared 
  • “Good... Now that I know what Is wrong with you, I know the perfect spell to heal you with my friend”
  • I placed my hands on his chest and uttered some spells, my eyes turned white and my hair glowed like the sun light.
  • The darkness was so strong but no darkness is too strong for a white elf.
  • My light soon outshined it and sent it out of his body; I felt exhausted and pulled out breathing heavily.
  • Few minutes later, Nickel coughed and opened his eyes.
  • “Hey... Shorty...welcome back” I gave him a warm smile.
  • “Hey...Buddy... what happened?” He asked in a weak tone.
  • “I should be asking you, your guards found you shivering in the woods”
  • “The woods? Yes!! It was the dark elves” He screamed.
  • “I knew it! Those sneaky rebels, why did they attack you?”
  • “I saw them near the Mckzene cave”
  • “What??” I screamed 
  • “Yes, they were trying to get away with Mckzene’s statue, I tried to stop them but I got bitten, then I guess I passed out”
  • “Oh no... This is not good news at all, what about the two giants responsible for watching the cave”
  • “Have you forgotten the saying the bigger the foolish and the smaller the wiser” he uttered.
  • “Just get straight to the point Shorty “
  • “Well those two were busy taking a nap, they were sleeping on duty”
  • “Oh gosh, Okay... I will go inform the witch kingdom but first I need to inform my dad”
  • “Okay I will walk you out” He offered
  • “No... Get your rest; I will let your parents know that you are fine”
  • I left the dwarf kingdom and flew to the middle Westham, where the elf kingdom is located. This time I flew in form of a raven...shape shifting is another gift that very few elves possess.
  • I got to our castle and the first person I met was vishia. She ran to me and hugged me screaming excitedly.
  • “Vishia...where is my dad and why do you look so happy?”
  • “It seems like you haven’t heard” she grinned evilly
  • “Heard what?” I asked curiously
  • “That your little witch girlfriend is leaving Westham for good”
  • “What!!” I shouted “I hope you are not kidding me”
  • “No darling, she is leaving for real and you know what that means...I can now have you all to myself, no one can come between us now” she said softly and hugged me tight.
  • “Vishia...stop your nonsense and tell me exactly what happened” I snapped angrily
  • “Hey...why are you getting cross with me, is it because of that silly witch?” she yelled
  • “Okay...am sorry, now please tell me exactly what happened” I calmed down.
  • “Fine...well...some dark elves have stolen the wizard king’s body”
  • “Yeah I know that...so?” I asked eager to know more
  • “So in order to keep the ancient seal away from the wizard, the ten rulers of Westham have decided to send kirana away with it”
  • “No...I can’t let them do this” I muttered and ran out of the castle
  • VISHIA’S POV
  • “What? Did he just run out to stop her from leaving, I wonder what kind of spell that witch has cast on my baron, he doesn’t give me attention and he doesn’t reciprocate my love...I have given him all I have to offer, my love...my attention...my time...my support and even my body, yet he still runs after kirana, what does she have that I haven’t got, she is not even his kind, she is a WITCH for crying out loud”
