certainly weird.” She said as she tried
to turn back.
    The golden circles seemed to be getting
closer to her. She felt the goose bumps rise on her skin. As Emily
was still moving backwards, she hit something really hard. Looking
back, large claws wiped her face, sending her flying backwards.
    “What do you want from me? Emily shouted as
she tried to stand up from the wet ground.
    “What are you doing in my territory? No one
ever escapes after daring me.” A loud voice reverberated in her
ears.
    “Why are you holding all those people
captive? You are evil and you need to be dealt with. Emily shouted
back while preparing her first attack.
    “You have no right to judge me. You are going
to die.” The voice whispered.
    As Emily ran to hit him, she felt herself
being flung upwards, thereby landing in a great thud. She yelped in
pain. “Aargh, that hurts”.
    “I can see you but you won’t be able to see
me, no matter how strong you are. I see you have skills. I’m a
little bit impressed. I’ll destroy you.”
    Emily uses her powers to sharpen her vision.
She opened her mouth, marveled at what stood in front of her. Its
eyes were bright gold. It had large muscles and huge feet. The
remaining parts of the body was tiny and almost invisible.
    “What sort of creature are you?” Emily asked,
a bit frightened.
    The creature turned back to reveal a long
tail, which it used to sweep Emily away. Emily could hear the voice
of the people on the other side. It seemed they were watching
everything. Emily raised her hands up and swerved it several times
at the air as if looking for support.
    She stops sending all her magic to her sight
and prepared to attack the demon in full force. The eyes of the
demon seemed to be turning red as it made a loud, screeching sound.
Emily immediately blocked her ears.
    She immediately swerved her head towards the
ugly beast and sent large blasts of magic power into it.
    The beast immediately fell to the floor,
writhing in pain. “You are really powerful, where did you get all
that power?”
    Emily smiled in satisfaction, hoping that the
beast was gone for good.
    “I’m not done with you yet.” The beast said
as it hit her hard from behind, scratching her with his nails.
Emily tried hard to maintain her balance, but she couldn’t. She
fell hard on the floor, her back soaked in blood.
    Emily stood up and used the only spell her
remaining power could cast. She formed a large circle ball around
herself and is engulfed by magic. She immediately launches herself
at it and hits her tiny stomach.
    The creature fell to the floor, as it spat
out a large green substance, which disappeared into the darkness.
Emily could hear the people rejoicing. The barrier began to
fade.
    Emily got out and the people raised her in
the air and flung her like a heroine. She begged them to put her
down as she held on to her bag tightly.
    As she began to leave the place, a guy came
to meet her. “Hi, I’m Donald. Thanks for everything.”
    “Oh, it’s nothing, I had to pass too” Emily
said as she chuckled aloud.
    “You were really amazing” he replied.
    “Thanks, I have to go now.” Emily said after
studying his cute blue eyes and blonde hair. She turned to go.
    “Wait”
    “What? Why?” She replied.
    “I don’t really have anywhere to go. Can you
take me with you? I kinda got lost before I met myself here.”
    “My mission is supposed to be discreet but
since you mean well, you can follow me.” Emily said, still looking
impatient.
     
     

CHAPTER 9

    Evalle opened her mouth wide as she studied
the room. The walls and floor seemed to be covered in blood. She
looked to the ground as she hit her leg on a skull. “What is this
place?” She asked herself.
    Removing her heavy bag from her shoulder, she
sat on floor and brought out the map from her bag. “Am I really in
the right place? God, what is this?” She stood up and put the map
back into her bag.
    Evalle carried her bag on her shoulders and
climbed
