Glinda jumped on her place while her lips started to move to cast a strong spell. She did not realize that the man fighting with her master had an accomplice too.
“I am here to save you, you do not need to attack me.” she frowned as she did not see anyone. Though she could hear voices, the person was not there.
Was it another trap? Instead of stopping casting a spell, she even picked up a small wooden stick that was sharp at the other end for her safety.
“If you cast a spell, he would know you are here! Your master had already died. You should try to save yourself.”
“………..” true to his words, she saw Circe on the ground taking last breaths. A dagger had pierced her heart and she was having trouble breathing. It would only be a matter of seconds that her eyes would be closed forever.
“The moment she would close her eyes, the vampire would come here and then he would kill you. We do not have time to think leisurely. Come with me, I will save you.” she wanted to shout why would she trust him? She could not even see him.
What if it was their trap? Yet the offer of saving her life was a good temptation. Even if he would try to kill her too, she could fight and have a chance to survive. But she would have no chance if it was that blood sucking monster she was fighting against.
She had already casted the strongest spell on the boxes. He would not be able to find them.
With that thought, she nodded her head and accepted the offer.
She covered her mouth with both hands when she felt a shriek was going to accept her lips. Yet her body truend rigid when she felt herself floating in the air.
She could feel the hands but could not see the man who was holding her as he ran towards the other side and jumped the wall as if it was only a few inches high. While in reality it was more than her height.
She held what she felt was the chest of the man to make sure that she did not fall from the thin air. But after coming out, he did not let her go.
He continued to float or run.. She was not sure. Was he so long or was he flying in the air? And the wind? Why did she feel it has become much stronger only for them?
“You are a witcher with the power of winds?” so that was why he was able to jump such high buildings. The wind was holding him.
“Hmm, but it is not important. What’s important is who are you and what are you hiding in that dark room.” he muttered but when she stayed silent, pursuing her lips, he did not ask her again.
He could check that in the box he had.
How much time had passed when they finally stopped in front of a rusty cottage that looked like it would fall any moment.
“Darn! I did not know how to end the spell. That old lady would shout and attack me if she did not see me!” he muttered under her breath as he reached the door.
He was unsure if he should knock or not when he felt the strong gaze of the witch on his face as if she could see it now.
“What! Do you stare at everyone like that?” he asked in a teasing voice to take her attention away when she blushed.
Her face turned red but she did not take away her eyes, just lowered them a bit.
“I.. I can see you now!” oh! So he was right. He looked at his hands that were holding her all this while and they were visible again.
“Phew! I thought I was going to be invisible all my life.” he whispered softly as he knocked on the door while she continued to stare at him as if she was assessing him.
“How did you get invisible? I thought it was a forbidden spell that witches can not do.” her voice had curiosity but beneath that, there was a hint of concern.
Forbidden spells are those that even a witch can not do. The witches are given the power of light to help others but if a witch continued to do forbidden spells that require the power of darkness, she would soon turn into a dark witch.
A dark witch is a taboo. No one knew how they looked and what they did. There was a legend that only light witches are born while dark witches are formed by mistakes of their power.
But a story also said that there was a time when a dark witch was born. She was the strangest of all the witches with the power to annihilate the whole race of human, vampire or witches. She had immense power that could win any war, Kill anyone and do anything.
Every white witch was afraid of her existence and took it as a sin, a mistake of god and tried to kill her. But every first generation witch that tried to kill the dark witch died and the era of strongest witches ended with that.
No one knew where the dark witch went but it was said that if a white witch continued to do forbidden spells, he or she would be possessed by that dark witch and she would come to take her revenge from this world who had never treated her well.
Every witch is so afraid of that, that they make sure not to dip their hands in the dark magic even when they are on the verge of death. Even he was surprised when he saw a first generation light witch performing dark spells, but she did not look like she was changing!
“Why? Are you worried about me?” he asked, breaking her thoughts as she raised her head to stare back at him.
“Why are you back here Luci?”
