chapter 30 (Light Generation)
I woke up with a throbbing in my head. My hand when to my head while I slowly open my eyes.
Darkness was all I could pretty much see.
I blink a few time and came to the conclusion that the room was just dark. I could make out the ceiling which were just rocks.
It looks like I was in a cave which was not true of course. Wait a sec Mafalda! She got me, no she got me and Libby.
"God damn it." I whisper to myself sitting up.
I look around and saw that I was in a dungeon. The same dungeon we passed on my birthday when we were in the castle of Mafalda.
How could I let this happen? She's didn't only get me and Libby, but also Abraham and Felix. I don't know how she just could get into the castle without anybody noticing it.
I stood up and walked to the thick bars.
My hands when around them and I try to feel if one of them are lose, but of course they aren't.
I close my eyes and lay my head against the cold bar. The memory of Connor walking around the corner and seeing us was the first thing that came into my mind.
He looked shocked and he didn't know what to do. He didn't expected to see Mafalda there with us. Yeah neither did I.
I open my eyes when I heard a scream.
First thing that came to my mind was Libby.
They got her.
Why would they torture her. I need to get out of here! I wish I could melt the bars so that I can get through.
Wait I can teleport.
I teleported to the other side of the bars landing on my knees.
"I need to practice on landing." I mutter to myself brushing off the dirt from my pants.
I began to walk to the stairs where I know the door to the castle lead. It was dark here, but I manged not to trip. I climb the stairs and reach the door. Slowly I open it seeing no guards or other people.
It's like the castle is empty.
I'm lucky that I still remember why I need to go. Again the screaming came in now I was sure that it was Libby. I ran up the stairs still not seeing anyone. What happen here?
I ran through the halls that echo my footsteps. The screaming got louder and I know I was close.
I turn around a corner and froze on the spot when I saw what was happening. Libby was lying on the ground crying and screaming. The head witch was sitting next to her saying some stuff in a other language.
Felix and Abraham were holding the arms of Libby down while she try to get away. Mafalda was sitting on her throne with a smirk on her face.
Tanya and Ragnar were standing at her side. Mafalda's face light up when she saw me.
"It took you long enough."
The head witch stopped with what she was doing and everyone looked at me.
I straighten my poster a not taking my eyes from Mafalda.
"Let her go!" I demand.
She laugh standing up from her throne. "Why would I?"
She walked towards Libby with Ragnar and Tanya behind her.
"I already killed every one of her people. Why would I let her go?"
Libby whimper when Abraham pulled her up from the ground.
"And beside she's the only thing that we can use against you now." He said stroking her cheek.
My insides were screaming while I looked at the scene. "What do you want me to do? Give you the map? I have no idea how to use it or how to give it to you!" I scream getting angry.
Abraham chuckle. "You can use it. You just never try to use it."
I bite the inside of my cheek trying not to scream at them for how stupid they are. "I can't!" I said louder.
Abraham made fire appear in his hand and held it close to Libby's face.
"Did you know that it's ten times harder for water Nimfen to survive a burn wound from a fire Nimf?" He moved his hand closer to her face and I saw how scared she was.
"Stop! I can't do it okay? I have no idea how to use it!"
"Maybe you need some encouragement." He put his hand on Libby's arm and she screamed out in pain.
I ran towards them, but Ragnar and Felix held me back.
"You're the only one who can stop this Hazel." Abraham said in a calm voice over Libby's screaming.
I try to fight off Felix and Ragnar, but they wouldn't budge.
"I can't! Crowley never told me how to use it!" I scream on top of my lungs.
Abraham let go of Libby's arm and let go of her. She hit the ground with a loud thug, but didn't move at all. I know she wasn't unconscious because I could hear her silently whimper.
Abraham made his way towards me with an angry expression on his face, which was actually Logan's face.
Abraham grabbed my chin roughly pulling me more towards him.
"Do you want her to die?" I shook my head slowly not giving him any emotion.
"Do you want Logan to die?" I open my mouth to say something, but nothing came out. A smirk came on Abraham's face.
"You know it's his only way to live Hazel. Free me and you two can be together again." He stroke my cheek with his hand, but I pulled away.
He may looked like Logan, but I don't want him to touch me.
"If someone could tell me how to use the map, then maybe I would do it." I snapped stomping my food on the ground.
Abraham turn towards the head witch.
"Can you take it out?" She shook her head.
"No something is holding it back, but I can tell her how to use it."
Why didn't you said that!? How stupid is she!? Can someone please slap her!? Abraham nodded his head before stepping to the side so that she could standing in front of me. I can't just give the map or tell them anything.
They can't find Abraham's body. I know Logan can die, but Abraham will destroy thousands of life's.
"Focus Hazel. You need to be focus to do this." The head witch hiss at me seeing that I didn't pay attention towards her.
If we could escape we could go back to Meadow. I know I have more powers then teleportation, healing and the other things I already did. Come on think Hazel. You have read the book.
That's it, Light Generation.
If I can make a light that will blind them I can escape. One problem I never learn it.
"I said pay focus!" The witch yelled at me slapping me across the face.
I bite my cheek slowly looking back at her. Some hair was in my face, but I didn't care. Logan said once that our powers come from emotions. I'm angry enough to create that light.
"I am focus."
Out of both my hands light appeared.
It grow brighter and brighter. In a flash it filed the room. To my surprise I could see everything perfectly.
Felix and Ragnar let me go and I push them away. Everyone was shielding their eyes from the blinding light.
I ran towards Libby and grabbed her not injured arm. She was scared first because she couldn't see who was grabbing her.
"It's me Libby. Come on let's get out of here." I helped her stand up.
"Don't open your eyes." I order before walking pass everyone.
"Don't let them escape." I hear Abraham yell.
I wish I could teleport out of the castle, but I never saw the outside so I don't know where to teleport. I try to teleport back to Meadow, but I couldn't It was like something was blocking it.
We were out the bright light and walk further away from it before I told Libby to open her eyes.
"What are we gonna do?" She said panicking.
"First we need to get out of the castle, come on I know the way." We ran further down the hallway to the stairs.
Guards came running up the stairs when we came towards them. A guards launched himself at me, but I dodged it before flipping him off the stairs hitting other guards on his way down.
A blow of water came from next to me hitting some guards down. Libby put her hands down looking shocked. I think she never thought she could do that.
We came to the bottom of the stairs and were almost at the gate.
"You can't escape Hazel!"
I turn around and saw Abraham standing at the top of the stairs.
I open the gate and pull Libby with me.
We ran over the big bridge that connects the castle with village.
