The Anti-Fairy Tales Cinder Umbrella Arc Part Six


Inferno Falls

They both ran and ran as fast as they could. Their lungs cried out for air and their stitches begged them to stop, but they could not afford to listen to them. They could not afford to stop, for they knew what would happen if they did. Though they knew better that to think about it. They ran and ran even-though Pheoshan was within an inch of passing out. Their legs both felt like jelly, and were threatening to give way, until Pheoshan fell on her head.
She tried to get up, but her eyelids became stubborn. Her body just wanted to lie there, doing nothing but resting. She tried to resist and get up but her muscles just could not move. She felt someone pick her up. Her eyes slid to Pyredoor who was smiling and her eyes closed before she could find out why.
She had a dream of a woman with black hair and white eyes, she was thirteen by the looks of her, no, she was twelve. She was with another who was fifteen, just half a year older than her. She held a book in her hand. She had darkening brunette hair and dark brown eyes that were filled with intercity.
Her eyes opened and blinked as they did.
“C-Coalphyre?”
“Here, how' have you been?”
“Not bad. You?” she asked.
“Fine. Sorry I could not get near you before today. There was a barrier around Glahod which wasn't removed until this morning.” he said. “Say, those are some interesting shoes that you have there.”
She looked down only to see the black glass slippers as their heels flattened themselves. They soon morphed into a striking pair of black glass clogs. Which were comfortable to wear.
“Seems that you're sort of right.”
“So, what happened?”
That was when she told him the events that had taken place. His eyes rested on her black glass clogs.
“Now, I think that we need to eat.”
With that they eat and soon the other two were asleep. They spent the following morning climbing higher and higher until they were at the top of a mountain. They were about to settle down when they heard a series of loud screams!
They looked back and saw smoke rising from the horizon blackening the sky and replacing all clouds in sight. They could even feel an intense heat that was only getting hotter and hotter. They could smell the suffocating scent of ash and sulphur. Their eyes started to sting and they knew that they had to get out of there.
They ran and ran higher and higher up the mountain, coughing all the way until they came to a high place where the heat was a lot less intense and the smoke was thin. They turned back to see what was going on and they could see the tips of blue flames above hills, in the direction of Glahod. They climbed higher to see what was going on and they were soon the upper middle of the mountain could they see where the blue flames were coming from. They soon wish they hadn't.
Their eyes met a wall of blue fire that was determined to burn everything in its' path. It reached to the highest points of the visible sky and, even-though they were miles they could still feel the heat. The heat must have been that intense that even trees and grass that were not even near the fire lit up and than joined he inferno! And soon the fire hand eclipsed the entirety of the horizon and even the sky above their head had no clouds but smoke.
The castle then fell and crumbled and all of the rest of the buildings were brunt so thoroughly that only the melting metal scaffolding was barely remaining. Soon that became an amber puddle on the ground burning the victims as they drowned. Some were hit by falling bricks and passes out and others were hit by beams and were crushed by rubble. Others choked on the smoke and coughed up blood as the ash filled their lungs.
They then spotted Wolfox light a blue fire ball in his hand and suddenly Pheoshans' vision blackened. She suddenly saw the forest of flames from a birds eye view. Then her eyes rested on ones that called her step-daughter and step-sister. Looking up at her with eyes wild and in utter horror. They were pale and coated in soot, ash and sweat. Their clothes were torn and burnt. They were all shaking all over.
Now, let me show you this! She heard Wolfox say in her head and her vision dropped to a blue fire ball and it hit the whole lot of them!
Then her vision returned leaving them incapable of moving as they watched Glahod become ash. Even though their hearts were beating rapidly they could hardly feel them, they could hardly feel anything as their minds tried to process what they were baring witness to. All they could hear now was the silent scream that lay within their hearts.

Scar Parents Fight Part Three

  Hunter’s Defence  Scar opened her eyes. She then walked down the stairs. She slowly took out her homework, just to take her mind off the day before she started doing it. She started with her maths to fode her mind to focus. She then moved onto literacy. After she had done both her mind felt sharp and clear of all of the upset. She looked up, it was half past seven. She then took a slice of bread. She then put it in the toaster and pulled out a tin of beans. Half of them had already been eaten the day feforeshe then put it in the bowl and then put it in the microwave for a minute. As she waited she picked up a newspaper. Three women arrested. They claimed to be witches yet none have any drugs in their system. They were arrested  for killing four children. When asked why they claimed  it was to obtain power. So they've been arrested. Good! She heard the beeping and soon put the beans on the plate then took the toast out and soon took out a fork. After ripping the toast in half she

The Nine Dragons The Serpent Dragon Part Three

  The Boa Army Loc was working hard in the field. It was getting to evening time. She had found that she liked working there as a farmer. There was just something so satisfying in doing hard work and made the food taste better and she slept better too. She could see herself doing this for the rest of her life however long that would be, yet she knew that she could not. Regardless of how much she liked the village and the people there. She had noticed that the people there looked almost like the people in her world just without any pupils and they were weaker too. She also noticed that despite this, they were all hard working and nothing was eaten until they had done their work. During this time she had completely recovered her whole energy and strength from all of the battles that she had on that day. She had also been able to gather her thoughts and psychology recovered and was able to have her time of mourning her losses from her rebellion. Yet she found that this might have been due

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Six

 The Purple Monster  “Why?” “Open the book and put all of the other Purple Artefacts into the page that it fits.” Doormaze nodded as she opened the book. On the first page as a hole where she put the Purple Purl in. The page glowed and for a moment. When the glowing died down the purl was in the page, almost like a picture. She then turned another page. There was another hole with a flower hole in. She then placed the Purple Flower in. It glowed and soon the flower was in the book. She turned the page, where she placed the Purple Feather in.  Once it became a picture the book glowed. Soon light flooded the room. All had to close their eyes as the light became far too bright. Then Doormaze no longer felt the book in her hands. She opened her eyes to see a light above her hands almost like a miniature star. What is this? Then it became so bright she had to close her eyes again. Then she felt something covering her body. It felt light and comfortable. Her eyes opened to see that she was c

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Four

  The Purple Book They travelled down the cave in West Mountain for an entire day. Yet they did not leave until the following day. They left the cave to see a group of small houses. They were all small and in the style of King Garnet’s castle. “This is the abandoned town of Faiton. It’s here somewhere. So I think we will have to go in them to find it. You need not worry, there has not been a single person seen here in decades.” The other three nodded. “And what does this next artefact look like?” “It is a purple book. It is made from the same material as the crystal flower.” “Right. Then, let’s split up and explore every house.” Doormaze spoke, punching her fist. “And mark the door of the house that has been checked and leave the door open while it's being checked.” “Good thinking.” They all split and walked into the first house that was closest to them. They all started on the ground floor. Then the first floor and the second floor. Upon seeing nothing, they left the house. They p

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Three

  The Purple Flower They, because it was late when they reached the top chamber, decided to take a break. They lit a fire and, after cooking a small stew, started to eat. “Now, tomorrow, where to next?” “Well, Doormaze, we must travel over the Flower Bridge. It used tobe a small village on a large plot of land that the other mouth of the cave leads to. The houses were too and far between. It was mainly covered in many different purple flowers.” “And that’s why it’s called Flower Bridge?” “Well, that is because of the plot of land that joins the East Mountain, which we are in, and West Mountain, which is where the Purple Flower is in, is naturally formed.” “And there is nothing underneath it.” “No.” “Well,” She said, finishing her meal. “That’s something to sleep on.” After they all ate their meal,they went to sleep. Doormaze dreamed of Natalie again. She opened her, now dragon, eyes. She walked over to the dragons. They were sound asleep. She smiled as she turned away from them. She wa

Scar Parents Fight Part Four

  Mother’s Knife Scar woke. She saw Morara right in front of her. She dived back as she punched her. She tried to unbuckle, yet she noticed that she soon noticed that it was jammed. She tried to pull the belt but that too was jammed. She tried to pull it again and again and again but it did nothing. She looked up in fear as she saw the knife coming at her. She quickly dived out of the way then the knife turned to her. She tried to punch her but she caught her wrist. She tried to pull her hand out of her hand. Yet she was too strong. She saw the knife getting closer and closer. She hit the arm as hard as she could which made her drop the knife. She then finally pulled out more of her belt and fell out. She then felt a slit in her arm. She let out a whimper as she looked up at Morana went to stab her again and again. She kicked her again and again and again. She looked at both Alex, who was unconscious. She drove her hands to his belt and she pulled the belt and he hit his head as he fel

Scar Parents Fight Final Part

  Assassin’s Sacrifice  Charlotte, knowing that none of them had any time or chance to call an ambulance, ran. She knew where the hospital was and that none of them had any time to lose. She ran down the street as fast as she could. Yet it must have been obvious where she was running to as Morana looked at her innanyer and knew in that moment she would kill to stop her from going there.  Her parents had the exact expression on their faces when she had to stop pretending that she was a boy. After all, they always wanted a boy and when she was born a girl they tried to turn her into one. But the only thing that reminded them that she was a girl was her name, which they shortened to Charlie at one point. Just to keep the illusion that she was a boy alive in their deluded minds. The only thing that got her out of that situation was the series of dead girls that were her sisters and only one son being alive at the cost of her neglect. Van Kira, she remembered his name was. “Oh no you don’t!
