The Magic Door

Once Peter made it to where all the elves were, he saw a very tall man elf. About 6 ’7 feet tall, dark skin, short red hair with red eyes search though the crowd of elves trying to find something or someone. Peter suddenly got a chill up his spine, telling him to hide, but he did not move at all till Raine was beside him. Wrapping her wing around him to keep him hidden by the king. Queen Sofie walked out of the crowd of elves and faced the king with a straight face but angry eyes.

“Why are you here, Draken?” Sofie said in a loud and stern voice.

“My goblin told me that there is a human in these parts, so I collect my prize.” Draken’s voice was deep and tough with mischief.All the elves were whispering to each other before Sofie’s eyes narrowed with a glare. With her head held up high and standing strong and proud, she looked right into Draken’s red eyes with no fear.

“He’s here with me and he is going to stay here. So no, you can not have your prize.” Sofie said, and Draken did not like the answer as he held up his hand ready to smack her but stopped in midair. Draken’s eyes were elsewhere and looking right into Peter’s green eyes. Lowering his hand and starting walking towards where Peter was, he stopped when the crowd of elves stood in front of him. He did a low growl at them while Raine used some of her magic to pull his cape so he’s forced back. Draken grunted and looked at his cape before looking at Raine with an evil glare. Pointing his long finger that his fingernails are sharp like a cat’s claw at Raine while glaring dangerously at her like he was about to kill her.

“How dare you use your magic on your king!” Draken said in an anger tone while Raine held her head up high showing no fear.

“You are no king to me! Never or whenever,” Raine said with a tough voice.

“That’s enough! Now Draken, you saw the human, yes? But he is with me and my kin, so please will you leave my kingdom and never return because that boy is mine.” Sofie said softly but sternly.Draken looks at Sofie to Raine, then at Peter with a hateful glare before he smirks and chuckles. The chuckle became a laugh, then the laugh turned into a loud evil laugh that echoed throughout the kingdom. Everyone looks uneasy by his laugh and Peter can tell something is going to happen because he could sense something is about to happen and it would not be good. Peter reached for his sword and grip on the handle while looking at Draken as he slowly calmed down and had an evil smirk planted on his face.

“Crow de ma! Nose crim bak zomba!” (Crow come down! Meet your praying friend!) Draken yelled as the sky turned dark. “Maffack demordo ga semda!” (Kill everyone and feast!) while the sky went darker and darker than a loud screeching sound.Everyone looked up and Peter was right. There in the sky was a big bird, but not just a normal big bird, it was a crow. Silver eyes, black feathers and sharp claws as it flew in the sky screeching. Everyone screamed and ran to places, trying to get out of the bird-eye of view. Raine flew up and started using her magic against the crow while Sofie stood there with wide eyes that showed fear in them. Raine shot green flames at the big crow and the crow screeched in pain and did a sharp turn and opened its mouth while biting one of Raine’s wings. Raine screamed out in pain while Peter’s eyes went wide and pulled out his elf sword and shield while looking around for a tall tower or something to get the bird to his attention. His eyes spot a single tall tower and start running to it.

“Hang on Raine! I am coming!” Peter yelled while running to the tower.Draken laughed at this and watched Peter with amusement. Draken looks up at his friend with a smirk and holds out his hands while laughing some more before going serious and looking up at the crow.

“Crow! Maffack tomas bonoly! Semdo do puliosh bilshealish!” (Kill that boy! Feast on his bones!) Draken yelled up to the crow as the crow let go of Raine as she falls down to the ground and the crow heads off to find Peter.Raine landed on soft grass while she was gasping in pain as she sat up and looked behind her and her right wing tore up. Pushing down the pain, she looked for Peter and saw he was not around so she stood up but fell back down from the pain that was coming from her right wing. Sofie runs over to Raine and kneels to help Raine up to her feet. When they stood up, both of them looked up at the crow as it was soaring in the sky looking for Peter. Peter was inside the tower and heading up but stopped to catch his breath, as it was a long way up. Looking out the window next to him, he could see a little of the kingdom below him. Shaking his head and starting heading up the stairs while gripping on the sword and shield.

“Damn, why did I have to choose this tall tower? Maybe I should stay down and fight down there. Oh well, I am almost there.” Peter mumbled to himself as he was getting closer and closer to the top.
