The Anti-Fairy Tales The Water Demon Arc Part Six

 Back To Land


For the next day as the ship sailed to the next destination, Pheoshan kept to herself and ensured to distract her from her thoughts. She spent her time helping the maids, yet she did catch glimpses of her friends, who were looking both concerned and distressed. She knew why and wondered desperately how to tell them who she was and what she had been through. She had tried to write everything down,  but then her hand seized up and became painful. The only thing even worse was the fact that she could not cry out for help as she could not access her voice.

"Remember our bargain deer mermaid!"

She looked up at the man who saved her.

"That is Prince Rice."

She took a page and wrote down


What is your name?

"Prince Rice. What is your name?"

"Use a false name."

She rubbed her eyes.

Please don't make me do this!

"Do you want to return to your true form?"


Alex Cinder


He looked down and frowned.

"That's an interesting name."

She shrugged.

"That's not your real name. What is your real name?"

She let out a sigh.

Knew it!

"Think of a clever lie to explain this."

She closed her eyes trying to suppress her anger at this humiliation.


I am sorry. Deeply I am, however

I am not at liberty to say.


"Why is that?"


It had been sealed away along with

my true firm and voice.


He frowned.

"By who?"

She tried to write down the truth but suddenly her had felt like there was fire and needles were digging into every pore! She tried to push on and wright it down, but the pain became completely unbearable that she dropped her quill. She had to clutch it. She could feel the muscles painfully tense up into the shape of a claw. She had to bite on her lip to stop herself from crying out.

What the?

"What? You did not think that I would make it that easy did you?"

Prince Rice looked at the hand and pulled it to him. He then started to gently rub it.

"I see. You can not tell me that either."

She could feel his message loosening up her muscles. It started to dull the pain and it started to go away. Her hand became loose and started to feel lighter. He then loosen the wrists and then did the same to the other hand. She looked at him stunned yet it touched her for him to treat her like this. She had never been treated like this without there being an ulterior motive.

"There, that ought to help."

She smoked and nodded.

"Thank you." She mouthed.

"It is alright. We will be arriving soon. As you have nowhere to stay, I will give you a room at my castle."

She looked down and smiled.

"And there, we will find something to break this spell. Then we will be able to talk."

She nodded and extended her hand. He looked down, surprised, yet he shook it nevertheless. They looked over to the land at the horizon. She smiled wider knowing that she would not have to wait that long. He then placed a necklace around her neck with a cross on. Surely she felt Ursmor's presence leave her.

"Here,  may the sign of the Great Being protect you."

She smiled and nodded. She then followed him and spotted her friends on board. She then wrote something down and gave it to them.


Don't worry, you will find the

one that you have lost. But

she will have to do something

fist before she can return to

you. However she can not say

at the moment.


She then walked back to Prince Rice. There was a determination rising within her that she could not quite understand. She was going to get everything back and she will join her friends again. She was sure of that like she was sure that night would come. She took a moment as she stepped out of the plank of the ship and back on to land.

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...

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...
