The Blue Rock And I Retrieve From The Blue Rock Part Four

 The Witch's Tower


It took no less than a day to arrive at the base of the first place, Witch Tower. Beside the tower was the Roman numeral one. We took a moment to take a break to eat. We looked at our food, yet we still decided to ration the food. There was no need to get greedy. After all, I knew that we would have another person to feed.

"Why can't they ration? They're used to it!"

"No. We all do it."

"Both of you, we need to finish this food as soon as possible."

They nodded as we soon finished eating. We then approached the double doors.

"Remember, the witch will let us take the one here but she will not make it easy."

"Right."

"Honestly, do you even have to remind us?"

"Don't let your guard down either!"

"Alright you two, remember why we are here. We can not afford a fight." Alexander snapped.

Johanna rolled her eyes as we walked in. Inside was nothing but a staircase leading up to the first floor. 1354 opened the door for us and we walked in. The moment that I saw the claw, I ducked. I looked up to see a strange creature that had claws for nails that were thin and sharp. Instead of feet the woman shaped creature had hooves. Then I saw the fangs and my mind instantly thought about the woman-like creature Uncle Haru killed on the Fortress Of The Red Rock. Yet this one was very pale with a perfect face and light silver hair. With a dress that left nothing to the imagination. Then she started to dance as her eyes locked onto Alexander.

He dropped his weapons and looked at her completely in a trance. He then started to dance and dance as he got closer and closer. Johanna and Eve looked at each other wondering what was going on. 1354 and Uncle Haru looked at each other shocked. Yet I soon noticed that both 1354 and Uncle Haru were also in a trance. 

Yet as her claws became sharper and sharper the men came closer and closer. I knew better than to dwell upon wondering what it was. I then ran to her with the only two girls close behind. I arrived at her and threw a slash at her but she jumped before I could even land the hit. Johanna loaded an arrow and fired at her heart and it hit. She let out a scream as I threw my blade down, cutting off the head.

Upon taking a closer look I noticed that there was something around her neck. I pulled it out to reveal a silver key. I pulled it off then a set of stairs appeared in front of us, continuing the stairs that led us to the first floor.

"Come on."

I then walked over to the staircase and walked to the top. I unlocked the door and walked in. The first thing that I noticed was the handsome man with a well toned body, only wearing a pair of jeans. His hair was dark and long with high cheekbones. He had jet black eyes that entranced me and the other two girls.

I could not help but feel like I wanted this man! All my being told me that. So I walked on and on,getting closer and closer to him. 

Then Alexander and Uncle Haru ran to him. Alexander drew his sword and went in for a strike only for the man to pull out a sword and they both met. While 1354 pulled out a pair of knives and ran to the man and stabbed him in the arms. Then Uncle Haru punched the man from behind. This gave Alexander the opening to slice his head clean off. 

We all snapped out of our trance. Johanna ran to Alexander and took his hand.

"Alexander saved us! Hurray for that!"

"Well I could not have done it without Mr Aoshiné or 1354 over here!" He said pulling the hand out and placing it on 1354's shoulder.

The two girls looked at him.

"Good job!" I said, patting him on his other shoulder. "I can tell that you are going to be a good and strong man when you grow up!"

"Thank you Miss." He said nervously.

 Eve then looked at the dead man and checked his pocket and found the silver key and the next set of stairs appeared. We walked to the top. He thrust his back against the door and we all placed ourselves against the wall. Then he opened the door. Then came the sound of a loud roar. Before anyone said anything I ran in.

"Aqua!" Uncle Haru shouted as I greeted a minotaur with the key dangling from a nose ring.

I pulled out my blade and just as I thrust my blade down, I took a glance of an axe in the corner of my eye. This helped me duck but barely in time. Then I felt the fist of the minotaur dig into my gut. This winded me as my feet left the floor. I landed on my arm as I clutched my stomach coughing. 

Then Alexander ran to him and dodged the axe and the fist, only to fall when his hoof dug into his side. I was able to use this to stab the minotaur in his leg. He roared as he brought the axe down. I slid out of the way again and again. 

That was when it was hit from behind with an arrow. It fell and Uncle Haru lowered the bow and walked up to the minotaur and pulled the key out of the nose.

"Are you alright?" He said as he patted my lower ribs.

"Should be. It will only leave a bruise." I admitted.

"What were you thinking?"

"To give the creature no time to put us in a trance."

"Oh."

"Can we go now?"

"Once Alexander's been seen to."

"I am fine!"

Yet Uncle Haru looked at himmall over.

"He will be fine."

"But-"

"Johanna! Focus!"

She bowed her head and nodded. We then walked to the top of the staircase. We thrust our backs against the wall. Uncle Haru then opened the door. He frowned as he walked in. We followed only to find that there was nothing there.

We looked around.

"Now what?"

"What are they?" Asked 1354, pointing to five Japanese characters.

"They are Japanese characters."

"What do they say?" 

"Earth, wind, fire,air and spirit."

"You are keeping up with your Japanese. Good."

"And what do they have they got to do with all of this?"

"I do not know."

I looked around and spotted a book appearing on a desk. I walked up to it and opened it to see that it was all written in Japanese. It was a strange tale of five different characters. I then understood.

"Alexander, you go to the character of earth. Johanna, air, 1354, water Eve, fire." 

They all did and I took the place where the spirit was. But nothing happened.

"1354 we will change places." I said.

We did. Nothing.

"Aqua, you swap with me." 

I walked to where the earth was. This time the tiles moved and the staircase slid out and the door at the top opened. We walked up and came to another floor with nothing in. So I started to tap on the tiles but we found nothing. So we tapped the tiles until one fell. Then the middle tile moves up. As we looked up we all saw  the doors above us. They opened and I noticed that there was a set of stairs leading to each of them. Then I walked to the one that was the natural flow of the stairs that we climbed.

I soon reached the top and the moment I opened the door and was hit by something. I heard the hiss and then the laugh of a woman. The first thing that I saw was the multitude of snakes petrudimg from the head of a woman with ice-cold beauty. Yet the moment that I knew what this creature was I closed my eyes. I dived down and drove my blade in front of me. I heard the bone chilling cry. I dared to open my eyes only to see that I stabbed too low.

"My face! You scarred my face!" She screamed as she dived at me.

 This gave me the opportunity to dive out of the way and slashed to the left. This got one. Then I walked in and then another came down and I closed my eyes and then I dived to that one. I went to stab her.  Then I was struck with her claws and slit my cheek. I had to bite my lip as I knew that I would have to resist opening my eyes. It then flipped my sword up and stabbed something. Then I heard it fall.

I opened my eyes.

"Did you do all this?" Ecve asked.

"What of it?" I asked plucking the key. We all walked up to the last door and opened it. 

Inside was a boy no older than fourteen with sandy blond hair and hazel eyes.

"Who are you?"

"Charles Hope."

"Come on. Time to get you out of here."

We soon left the tower.

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!
