The Last Shadow Witch The search
Terrified. That is what I would use to clarify how I felt back then. I was afraid of the unknown, afraid of what I would find, what I would meet and what might happen. I had no clue or any idea what it was but I knew it wasn't going to be easy. Marielle drove us to school slower than her usual driving speed. She was lost in thought like I was. "Marinette," she called softly. I turned my attention from the window to her. "Are you alright?" "Yeah, are you?" "Nervous. Are you nervous too?" "Terrified," I said with a nervous laugh. She laughed too and cleared her throat. I'd decided it was time I spoke to her about Ace. I knew she had feelings for him, I was tired of convincing myself that she didn't. I needed to know my stand with him, I needed to set things straight before I hated the one person that had always been there for me. I needed to do it. "Elle, remember how we promised each other to not keep secrets from each other? Secrets that would hurt us if found out on our own?" "A
The Last Shadow Witch Jealousy – well, it has begun
Elle shouted from somewhere. Before I could call on Ace, I was already with Elle. I growled at him and hit his chest. "What?" "Stop using your speed on me without permission," I huffed. "It makes me dizzy," "Oh," he chuckled and dropped me down roughly, my butt landing painfully on the ground. "Ow!" I shouted. "What was that for?!" He shrugged. "Improvising," eh? What the hell! "So fun!" Leaf squealed. She was on Gomez's back again. Ann strolled into the room with her hands in her hair. "Is Ann still marrying her hair?" Elle asked jokingly, clearly aware that she was in. "Very funny," Ann said sarcastically. "Can we focus on what you found? I'm missing the 'All You Can Eat Wednesday' here," Ace said complainingly. Everyone laughed shortly before Ace cut us off. "Where are we?" "In Ivy's studio, she loved painting," Sibyl replied. "Ivy's studio," I told them. "What did you find, Elle?" "This painting, my chest thumped the moment I touched it," she explained, brushing her fin
The Last Shadow Witch What are we looking for?
None of us moved. We all stared at the mirror portal quietly, each with their different thoughts of doubts. Sibyl put an end to mine as she tapped me impatiently. "Are you guys just gonna stand there looking like idiots or go in?" I gently pushed her hand off. "Guys, we need to go in. I don't know what we are going to see there, but I doubt it would be anything good," Elle finally cut through the silence. "We will have to be ready for anything," Ann added. "Lady's first," Gomez said with a playful bow. "Aww," said Leaf, walking over to the mirror. "You're so sweet offering the ladies the opportunity to go in first but…" she drawled her last word, eyeing Gomez who stood in front of the mirror. "Think fast, Wolfie," before Gomez could even register her words, Leaf delivered a hard kick to his chest. Gomez immediately plunged backwards, falling into the portal. Elle let out a joyful whoop, going over to Leaf. "Now that's what I'm talking about yo!" Elle said loudly. "High five, siste
The Last Shadow Witch The findings
"Rinette, no!" Leaf shouted, I already opened it. I screamed when I saw a snow-filled cave with a snow phoenix and her babies. She stood up, alerted by the intruder and got ready to blow her cold breath on me. I was suddenly pulled back and the door shut. "Are you that dumb," Elle, who closed the door, snapped. Ace was the one holding me. "I'm sorry," I apologised, still in shock. Elle sighed and walked back to Leaf. Ace's thumbs came up to my temples and slowly rubbed against them. "Calm down," he whispered. I exhaled, relaxing and getting out of the shock. "We are looking for an autumn-like or hazel-brown door with something related to books, pens or ladders," Leaf called out. "Spread out, guys. Ace, you and Leaf head North, and Gomez and I will head East. Ann, you handle South, and Rinette, West." Elle instructed. "Leave Rinette on her own?" Ace asked disapprovingly. "She's not a baby, leave her alone," Elle said harshly and dashed off to the East doors. Ann walked off to che
The Last Shadow Witch How do you do it?
We stared at each other in complete silence, fear lingering in the air, the tension so sharp it could cut through anyone. Elle clicked her tongue and cocked her hips. "What are we going to do now? We can't let this happen, we'll become slaves too," "I can't think of anything," I admitted. I was more worried about my boyfriend taking part. I knew something was missing, but I didn't expect this. Sybil doesn't use Ace because she has a crush on him, she uses Ace because he's the only face she knows. "Any clue where she hid her body? Maybe we can kill her body and destroy the sceptre," Leaf suggested uncertainly. "Hmm, let me see if she left a clue," Elle said, reopening the book. She flipped through pages, her eyes swiftly reading the words. "Found something that might be useful…" She left her words hanging, unsure of what she was saying. "Okay, what is it?" "None can pass the watery gate None can escape the beast within Through scales and flying swords Let the banshee wail. Over
The Last Shadow Witch The perfect team
My eyes widened, and my mouth fell open. He tilted my head up to look into my eyes. I blinked in shock, his expression reflected his words. My throat went dry, and my voice was completely lost. He blinked slowly, steering his lips into a smirk. "Ace," I called breathlessly. "I don't…" "Let's talk about this another time, we should focus on what is going on," I exhaled with relief. Dealing with his confession wasn't that important, for now. I was glad he was kind enough to understand that. I felt something snake around my leg before I was suddenly yanked into the pool with a scream. I held my breath as the ice-block water enfolded me. Bubbles spread from my mouth, my eyes blurring. I shook my head and looked at what was holding me, a long tentacle. The tentacle was spiky, it felt like thousands of tiny pins were wrapped around my leg. The tentacle pulled me towards a coral cage. Ann must have trapped it in there. The coral reef would have been beautiful if I hadn't been dragged to my
The Last Shadow Witch Manticore
Finally across the pool which had been returned to its formal position and the fish back to jumping in and out of the water, we set off to pass the next obstacle. Ace fingers laced delicately with mine, with such fragility I felt that any slight wrong movement would cut off either of our fingers. Elle was generous enough to carry Ann on her back since she was tired. Leaf was also exhausted, they had both used their powers more. "The next line says let the banshee wail," Elle informed, looking at me questionably. I shrugged. "Well, you and Ace have been playing the role of a leader so far, especially you, Elle. I'm sure you can figure something out." Ann said weakly. "Hmm, maybe someone would hurt himself or herself," Gomez said unsurely. "And so far, Gomez has shown no sign of wisdom," Leaf sniggered. I laughed and shook my head, the others chuckled. "Banshee," Ace said thoughtfully. "Could be a banshee. Gomez, what do you hear?" "That's the confusing thing, I hear nothing but us
The Last Shadow Witch Way to go, Ivy
"Ace, any ideas?" Elle asked calmly. "I can't think of anything except Ann should heal him first." "Okay," Ann whispered. Ace watched them as he stroked his chin. "I have one!" I exclaimed with a snap of my fingers and a wink. "What if Elle and I or—just I—make a spell to block out sounds? Make us deaf? Temporarily deaf?" "Bad idea, what if something big is coming and we need to hear it?" Ann asked with all her focus on Gomez. "Any other brilliant ideas, people?" Elle asked loudly. I rolled my eyes. That was my only one. "Elle, remember the time we were sent by the councils to eliminate the screeching boiled meat…" "Screeching phoenix," Elle corrected. "And yes," "What happened?" I asked curiously. "We work in a secret supernatural agency made for keeping rogue or wild myths in check. Some mythical creatures are cruel and tend to extend their madness to humans, we keep them all in check by either eliminating or imprisoning them. Elle and I are the best among the young vampires,
