Best novel online free at novelhall.com

In an old-looking rusty mansion, located in Hillsraine Grove, ten kilometres away from the booming center of the Lemduff Town, a flurry of activity was going on inside the old chapel.

The 70 years old Priestess Leera was supervising the decoration of the ritual place.

A ritual will take place soon that would revive their old prestige that's fading away if she won't do something about it.

One night, while agonizing over what to do with the problem her clan was facing, a prophecy came to her... it's so vivid... and she knows that she has to act upon it to save her clan from extinction.

Leera looked at her assistant. "Did Amara already send you the signal when we are going to visit the cave?" she asked.

Her assistant shook her head. "Not yet..."

A deep frown appeared on Leera's face. "What could be the problem?" she asked in bewilderment.

"Shall I send the five lights to find out what happened in the cave, Priestess?" the assistant asked.

"Okay, send the five lights. I want news today! If Amara still won't give us the signal, then I will go there to the cave whether she like it or not!" Leera declared.

"Aye, Priestess. I will send the lights now to the cave," the assistant said and left the chapel.

Leera continue supervising the cleaning and decorating of the chapel the whole day.

...

In the cave.

Sabrina brought the pink bunny to the chamber. It's the first thing that Rhett saw when he opened his eyes after napping.

"Oh, you found the rabbit!" Rhett commented.

"Yeah, it finally returned and I found it at the entrance of the cave! I'm feeling relieve and happy!" Sabrina smiled brightly.

"That's good!" Rhett said and get up from the bed. "I'm going to the toilet, do you want to go with me?" he asked.

Sabrina shook her head and replied, "No. You go ahead. I'm going to the entrance of the cave with my pet."

"Okay," Rhett said and left the chamber.

Sabrina and the rabbit went to the entrance of the cave. They settled on the wooden chair and stared at the view outside.

Sabrina looked at her pet. "Where have you been during those hours that you went missing? Tell me the truth!" she began interrogating her.

"I ran after Edmund, I accompanied him home and then when we already arrived to the entrance of their village - I ran back into the forest and returned here. That's all you need to know," Amara explained.

"Okay, so... you spend time with your crush? You're not tempted to go with him to his home and stay by his side forever?" Sabrina teased her.

"I did! But I'm thinking that you will get worried to death thinking about my whereabouts, so I returned here," Amara replied. Her mind drifted back to that mysterious guy in a black hooded cape.

Who is he? It's clear that the guy brought her back to the cave, 'coz when she fainted, the last thing she remembered... he was picking her up, then darkness enveloped her senses. The next time she opened her eyes, she was already lying on the grassy area in the woods near the cave.

"That's so considerate of you, Amara. I will worry to death for sure!" Sabrina said.

Silence engulfed the women for a few minutes.

Suddenly, out of the corner of her eyes, Sabrina saw movements in the woods.

And then the lights finally made themselves visible, floating towards the cave.

Sabrina stared at the flashing lights in awe, getting nearer to the entrance of the cave.

'Oh, my!' Amara exclaimed. Why they're here? I haven't seen the signal yet.

The flashing lights are a phenomenon to behold. They were hovering in the air, bouncing up and down, making Sabrina nauseated.

Amara noticed the discomfort on Sabrina's face. "Don't stare at the lights, you will go dizzy!" she warned her.

But Sabrina continue staring at the lights as if she was being hypnotized. Suddenly, her world turned dark and she fainted, crumbling into the chair.

"Stop it!" Amara shouted at the lights.

"Oh, Amara... why did you transformed yourself into a rabbit? Are you crazy? I didn't notice you at first. Is this one of your plan?" the leader of the lights asked.

Amara sighed. "None of your business!" she snapped. "Leave now! I will send the signal when I'm ready!" she ordered.

"But the Priestess is already impatient! If you still won't give us the signal, she will come here tomorrow night and do what she needs to do just to make the ritual a big sucess. Don't forget what you come here for! In case you already forgotten! Time is running out! You have to do it, now or never!" the leader of the lights said.

"I got it! You don't have to remind me about it! I know my destiny and my responsibilities! Leave now!" Amara demanded.

"Okay, fine, we're leaving! Make it quick! Tomorrow is the ritual day! Don't forget it! We're going now..." the leader of the lights said.

Amara sighed in relief, watching the lights flying in the direction of the woods.

A few minutes later.

Amara was trying to wake up Sabrina. "Wake up, girl!"

Rhett arrived at the entrance. He was horrified to see his lady love slumped on the wooden chair. He rushed to her side and scooped her in his arms, bringing her quickly to the chamber. "What happened to you, my love?" he asked worriedly.

When he reached the chamber, he gently lowered Sabrina in the bed and massage her body parts trying to revive her.

A few minutes later, Sabrina finally regained consciousness and looked at her boyfriend's face.

"Are you okay? Why did you fainted? What happened? Are you feeling ill?" he asked worriedly.

Sabrina sighed. "The flashing lights appeared outside at the entrance of the cave, I stared at it for too long, mesmerized by its splendor then suddenly I feel dizzy and I pass out. That's what happened," she explained.

"I didn't see the lights when I arrived there. I only saw you slumped on the chair beside your pet bunny," Rhett said.

"Where is my pet?" Sabrina asked.

"I left the bunny there in the entrance of the cave," he replied.

"Can you get it for me and bring it here in the chamber, please?" Sabrina requested.

"Okay, but let me know first if you're already feeling fine," Rhett demanded.

"I'm fine, I just fainted. I'm okay now," Sabrina answered.

"Good!" Rhett said and left the chamber.

He saw the bunny outside the door and picked it up. He put the bunny on the bed beside Sabrina. "I'll get some hot water for you to drink," he said and left, going to the clearing.

Amara looked at Sabrina. "Are you okay?" she whispered.

Sabrina nodded her head and replied, "Yeah, I'm okay."

"That's good! Next time don't stare at those lights they will give you vertigo!" Amara warned her.

"Okay, I'll remember your warning next time. Have you always seen those lights?" she asked.

"Yeah, they appeared in our village from time to time. They're forest creatures. We are told by our parents not to stare at them for longer period because they can make us lost consciousness," Amara elaborated.

"Ah, okay, got it! I won't stare at them next time," she responded.

"Rest well!" Amara said. "I'm going back to my chamber to rest as well," she said and jumped to the ground. She went back to her chamber - good thing the door is half-opened. She entered quickly and jumped into the bed and lie down, staring at the ceiling, thinking about what the lights had told her earlier.

She released a deep sigh.

She knows the Priestess well. When she said that she would come to the cave on her own then... she is powerless to do anything about it. When Sabrina accidentally turned her into a rabbit she knows that her plan is bound to be destroyed.

Unless...

The medallion can finally transform her back into her old self before the Priestess Leera arrives!

...

Back in the Hillsraine Grove.

The five flashing lights returned to the mansion.

Priestess Leera was resting on the rocking chair in the garden when the flashing lights hovered in the air.

"Greetings Priestess! We have a news for you from the cave," the leader of the lights said.

"What is it? Did you see Amara?" Leera asked.

"Yes. Amara transformed herself into a pink rabbit," the leader said.

"I don't care if she will transfer herself into a cobra, what I want to know is... when is she going to execute her mission?" Leera asked.

"She told us to wait for her signal," the leader replied.

"What-? Wait again!? We've been waiting forever! Whether she like it or not, I will go to the cave tomorrow night! Such a useless girl!" Leera said irritably.

"That's all, Priestess!" the leader said.

"Alright, you may leave now," Leera replied.

The flashing lights left the garden and hovered back to the woods nearby.

...

Back in the cave.

Amara noticed that the couple left their chamber, passing her room. She quickly jumped to the ground and went to the entrance of the cave.

She found Sabrina sitting on the wooden chair alone. She jumped into the chair. "Where is Rhett?" she asked.

"He went to Grandma Azere's hut, why?" Sabrina asked.

"Let's go back to my chamber and try again!" Amara said.

"Okay," Sabrina said and stood up, she picked up the rabbit and carried her in her arms, then they proceed to Amara's chamber.

When they reached the place, Sabrina put the rabbit on the bed. She released a deep sigh and grasped the medallion in both hands and shut her eyes tightly. "Medallion, for God's sake! Hear my command! Turned this rabbit back into her old self. Bring me back Amara! Now!" she commanded.

Suddenly... a miraculous thing happened instantly... the rabbit was gone and there lying on the bed was Amara!

Amara squealed in happiness. "Sabrina, open your yes! Look at me now!"

When Sabrina opened her eyes, the rabbit was gone and Amara is back! "OMG! Thanks God!" she gushes in happiness.

"I have to go, Sabrina," Amara said.

"W-where are you going?" Sabrina asked.

"Rhett will feel confuse that I'm back again in the cave. He already believe that I left the cave, so I can no longer stay here. I have to go home," Amara explained.

"Ah, okay. Take care of yourself," Sabrina said sadly.

"You too! Thank you for being kind to me all this time, bye girl!" Amara said.

"Wait... but you can't leave the cave!" Sabrina said.

"I will try to leave, if I can't make it... then I'll continue staying here..." Amara said.

"Okay, I'll see you off..." Sabrina said.

The women proceed to the entrance of the cave.
