Chapter Nineteen

Edited by: thirtxn

Jessica's POV

"Are you going to give me the bombs, or what?" I snapped. The dealer I was working with smirked.

"Give me the goods first," I couldn't believe him, he said he didn't need anything in exchange for these and now he did! I glared at him.

"You do not know who you're dealing with, earthling."

He smirked again. "Oh, yeah?"

I laughed. He was really going pay now. "I have guards here with me that carry weapons more powerful than a machine gun, you might not want to mess with me." Just as I was about to call for the guards, a loud thump echoed through the room. I looked behind to see little old Skyler. She froze when I faced her. "Look what we have here? Someone is trying to cancel my plans. Well news flash honey, it's not happening." Not having my powers was a huge disadvantage, but I had a room full of bombs and killing Skyler was my only goal. I slid open a crate of bombs and took one out. Skyler backed up, shaking her hands.

"Jessica, please. Don't do this."

I laughed. "Oh, but I have to." I was about to set the bomb off, when it got slapped out of my hand. Anger boiled through me. I turned around - my bomb dealer had done it. "What was that for?" I shouted.

"You will not lay a finger on Princess Skyler," he responded.

"How do you- how do you know who she is?" I stuttered.

"Because I am a loyal subject to her and I will not let anything happen to her."

Skyler covered her mouth. "Wait, you come from the Night Kingdom?"

"Yes. Your father sent me down here. We got rid of the old bomb dealer and I replaced him," he explained.

I screamed in frustration. "This is not part of my plan!"

"But it's part of ours." He smirked. He grabbed hold of me and started shouting at Skyler. "Go Princess! Your father is waiting above ground to take you home! I'll deal with her."

Skyler frantically started running. I reached out to grab her, but only clawed her cheek. She cried out in pain from the line of blood that was starting to drip from her wound. But she continued to run. I was not going to let her get away. I through my elbow into the Night citizen's stomach. It loosened his grip and I managed to get free. But as soon as I was out, his fist hit my face. I stumbled back, causing me to trip over his outstretched foot. It gave him just enough time to get away. Skyler was standing in the entrance the entire time.

"Come Princess! We have to go," he shouted. He grabbed Skylers hand and they sprinted to the exit. I was in too much pain to go after them. I clutched my face in pain. My nose was dripping with blood and

my head started to spin. I waited until I got my balance back and went over to the crates of bombs. I picked one of them up and smiled. At least I had what I needed for my plan.

I turned the bomb around and frowned. On the label it said, 'These are not real bombs'. The stupid citizen sold me toy bombs. I kicked the crate and watched as it toppled over. How was I ever going to beat her?
