The Anti-Fairy Tales The Water Demon Arc Part Two

 The Storm


Pheoshan put the book away as she felt the shooting rocking making her feel sleepy. As she read the sleepiness became more and more difficult to resist and she found her eyelids drop every now and again. She found it becoming almost impossible to keep her eyelids open. So she closed her eyes and took a nap. Then as the evening wore on the rocking became less soothing and more aggressive. She woke up as she rocked side to side faster and faster and she fell out of the hammock!

She soon scrambled to her feet and found it difficult to get to the door. She found herself running down the narrow corridor like a drunk. Yet she was able to get to the door leading to the staircase. She grabbed the doorknob. Then the ship rocked back and she momentarily hung from the knob and the door fell as it opened. She then let go and hit the floor. She scrambled onto her feet. She had to almost climb as she gripped the rope bannister. She was bashed from left to right as she climbed the stairs. Her shoulder hurt as she climbed higher and higher. There was another wooden door above. 

She kicked the door open and was slapped with water. She looked up at the black clouds that looked like smoke. She saw that the frame was lit by lightning. As she threw herself up she then saw the waves. They were getting higher and higher. The ship shook as it hit the waves. She scrambled to her feet and had to bend her knees to stop herself from falling below deck. She then matched on.

She looked for the other two and yet she could not. She looked throughout the different levels of the deck. She looked around again and again but could not find them. Suddenly she was concerned that they had already been thrown overboard. 

She then looked at the edges just in case they were there, yet she spotted a guy that was about to fall overboard. She raced over to him and grabbed by his back coat and pulled him back. They were hit by a wave and the next moment they were on their back on the deck. She quickly climbed to her feet and quickly spotted another person that was about to fall into the sea. She rushed over to him and pulled him back.

She then looked at the sea looking for anyone that had been thrown overboard. As she looked around she spotted a long and thin tail of a fish that she did not recognise. It was an emerald green that moved in a strange way. Yet she did not have time to look further into it as she was hit by another wave.

She was flung back and soon was falling back as the ship swayed the other way. She waited for until the ship swayed the other way before she rolled her legs out and then jumped to her feet. She then stood and waited for her body to synchronise with the rocking of the ship. 

She then spotted a small child in the air and she was able to catch him by his arm. She spotted the mother with a rope around her waist. She then raced to her and gave him over to her. She helped her tie the safety rope around his waist. 

She could feel the water start to weigh her clothes down greatly. The woman then looked at the girl with fear and shock. She tried to ignore this and she looked again for her friends and again she could not find them. She then raced to the lower levels of the decks and found another. She raced to her and with the water weighted clothes made this ever more difficult. She then pulled her back and it took all her willpower to get the woman to where the mother was. She then tied the safety rope. 

Then the rain became so heavy that it became almost impossible to see.

"Coalphyre! Phiredoor!" She shouted as loud as she could so that her voice would not get drowned out.

She could feel the cold get to her. It did not bother her nearly as much as she knew that she knew that it should. She should be shivering and her jaws should be tapping her teeth against each other. However even this was not as concerning as the fact that she could not see or hear any sound of her friends. 

What if they have drowned? What if they are dead? What if-

No! They're not, keep looking. Just keep looking! You will find them,  you must find them!

She ran across the decks and then to the edges as her heartbeat became wild as she looked all around the waves. She soon spotted that there were several people overboard and that they were all dead. She quickly scanned to see if any of them were her friends. To her relief they were not. She felt another tremor run throughout the ship as it hit another large wave. She then gripped the edge as she felt a hand on her back. She felt something hit the back of her hands causing her to retract them.

"Go back to the Demon Realm!" Shouted a man, as he forced her forward and she crashed into the waves…

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...

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 toa...

The Nine Dragons The Dragon Of The Ground Part Four

 Defending The Town  It was nearly an hour after sunrise when Loc saw the army on the far end of the tunnel. She looked back at Gina. She nodded and gave her a couple of coins with a dragon head on. “There’s a weapon’s shop at the edge.” Loc gave her the basket and ran to it. “Doyouhavammer!” “What?” “Do you have a hammer?” “Yes.” She gave him the coins. Yet then he looked at her eyes and his widened. “That’s enough for two.” He took them and took out two large hammers. She took them. She felt the weight and threw them in the air a few times. “Good weight!” “Hold on! You can hold them both?” “Yeah. Can’t the women of this world do the same?” “No. Not even some men can do that.” She raised her eyebrow, however she knew that she did not have time to appreciate what he had just said. She ran out as she knew that they were reaching the town. I need to take them away from the town. She thought as some passed her. She ran to the closest one. She jumped in the air and thrust her ham...

The Nine Dragons The Dragon Of The Ground Part Fourteen

 The Rock Dragon  Loc and the other two arrived at where the rock dragon lay. It looked at them with glowing amber eyes and had the shape of a turtle that was large. It had a head the shape of a wolf and had a long tail with four rows of spikes shaping an X at the tip. It had a pair of wings tucked away, yet the body had become too large to fly. It may have been able to fly once upon a time, but not now. After years of being glutinous, it had grown too heavy for it’s body. Upon seeing them it charged at them, making it's body sway from side to side rapidly. They all moved out of the way. They ran to opposite corners. Then it turned around and looked at Shiro directly in the eye. Soon Loc ran and went to jump upon it’s back only to feel pain in her side. The next moment she slammed into the walls. Then a spike fell from the roof of the cave. Loc rolled out of the way and soon the itching flared up as she felt her bones being crushed. Yet then she saw another fall and another an...

The Nine Dragons The Dragon Of The Ground Final Part

 Sorrowful Rest Loc spent most of her time between sleep and rest in the underground library, as she tried to stop herself from crying. Looking at the whole place, Loc could not help but feel nostalgic for Billy’s Bookshop. She almost could not help but feel the expectation of the faen walking up to her asking her for what book she would like to buy and read this time. Yet this brought more tears as she had to remind herself that she was not in her world as she picked out the first book. She sat on a stone bench outside and looked at the book and opened it. In the year of three after the dragon  defeated the royals and has taken all our first born and killed them. Then another dragon of great beauty and  majesty carved out pits where she  regurgitated up a strange liquid that made up a series of pools. Then the  rock dragon did the same and put the dead firstborn in. Then they all grew  rock over their flesh and came out alive and as rock. Then, upon the or...

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Final Part

 The Piece  They looked at the piec. Doormaze walked up to it. She picked it up and took a closer look at it. She felt very tired as she looked at the other two. “Well, what are you waiting for?” She looked up at the castle as she let out a yawn. She then looked back at them. She could tell that both of them were tired. “What?” “We’re the only people here.” “And?” “We’re all tired and I don’t know when the next time we will be sleeping in a good and warm bed.” “So?” “I think that we should call it a night. Find a bed and take some time off tomorrow.” “Why?” “We all need it.” They looked at each other and they soon found a velvet royal purple bed. They flopped into them and went to sleep the moment that their heads hit the pillows. The following day Doormaze looked around the castle, wondering who lived in it and what they were like. She then walked into a library filled with dusty only books of all shades of purple. She looked at the spines with writing of silver and gold. Her...

 A Closed Case And A Nasty Shock Within the hour they were taken to the police station where Scar handed in her phone, which had been on and recorded everything. She and the twins explained everything to them. Then a police officer, Detective Smith, walked in. “Well, Bea, Brit, what are youfoung here?” “Sorry dad, it’s just Scar was investigating that dead guy Bea saw get killed the other day.” “And ’cause she’s always in ’n’ out of hospital with terrible injuries.” “We were worried about her so we followed her.” He nodded with a stern frown. “But we didn’t know what we were getting into until we were caught! Promise!” “Well, your mum will be coming soon. She has been worried about you all afternoon. You know that she’s a busy woman and she gets worried when you don’t come home. Do you remember when you spent a whole day looking for that cat?” They looked down red and nodded. “Honestly, you’re lucky that Scar called ahead or I don’t know what would have happened!” That was when Br...
