Unknown Magic (3)

I kept thrashing till hope came, two strong arms enclosed around me and force my body up till we broke the surface. Causing me to gasp at eh sweet air that I so desperately needed.

“Hey” his voice calm, “hey, I got you” it echoed in my ear as I tugged tighter to him gasping while coughing. I soon felt solid rock under my feet and our legs sloshed against the water. Wolf was managing most of the weight as I put my full support on his body being carried to the beach.

Wolf let me down as he fell to his butt on the rocky beach, both of us panting for air. I rose my head to see in the distance Emily and Damon too were coming out of the water breathing in the sweet air. My eyes raked the beach till I found Thuse standing but staring at eh water deadly. I wasn’t given time to think when three dark shadows come out of the water shaking away to regain dryness. I looked up at them thinking least our transportation is safe.

“What the hell was that?” I heard Thuse screamed, I turned any direction to him, seeing he was stalking towards Wolf and I.

I eventually sat up as Wolf rose to his feet shielding me. “We do not know Thuse, everyone is questioning at the moment.” Wolfe fired back.

Looked like Thuse was about fire a statement when a flash of green slammed to the ground and echoed with a scream.

I was tunned but looked from the direction it came from. And saw three figures, all holding weapons, a bow, a sword and a rod. Their features angelic but couldn’t see more as they rush towards ys. Wolf gazed down at me but turned and flashed of blue came. A Lycan Alpha protecting. I would have joined but for some reason my body was in a state of shock my limbs felt as heavy as rock, not being able to move. I gritted my teeth and pushed through only to slam down onto the rocks again, upon doing this I noticed that Thuse joined in Wolf fighting off whatever creatures these were. I looked to my left as another clang of metal slammed accompanied by a roar of dragon. I saw Emily and Damon fighting side by side while trying to protect the dragons.

How could everyone move but me?

I pushed aside the thought and looked at the rocks around me and a idea came to mind I outstretched my arm hovering over the rocks, form and fight, I commanded the rocks. In a instant they whirled around another recreating what I called a rock machine, it formed about six feet and ran to Wolf who first freaked out but then realized it was me and began to fight along with it.

And I still could not move, was it my body stayed permanently to the ground as every time I tired to take an a step up I would stumble back into the ground rock impending into my skin. The only thing I could hear from my pounding heart was shouts and a command partnered with clanking of weapons as they beat down on one another. Who were these creatures and why target us? Why am I incapacitated?

I don’t a answer but someone screams a high pitch noise.

“Enough” Her voice sounds like flowers blooming a sweetness yet rough.

I looked up and saw Wolf and Thuse fall to the ground something wrapped around them. I look to my left and see the same happened to Damon and Emily. The dragons groan and fall down into sleep phase. I bring my attention to the creature that spoke.

“Enough” she repeated, and I instantly noticed her coffee bean skin but light closer to tree bark. I tonly looked darker as when I gazed upon her face, there was silver like lines shaped in vines trailing up her neck to her chin and spread out over her cheek bones and nose and tips stop at her hair line. She was gorgeous and then it stops me.

They are elves.

The woman with tree roots on her face comes to me, crouching down and stared or studies, her pointed ears visible to confirm my assumption.

“You must be the great legend” she speaks but I don’t get the chance to reply as she speaks again. “You been flying over our land illegally, we must bring you to our king and queen for sentencing” she slithers as if a plant grows along a tree branch. She turns and vines and roots wrap around me and I am lifted off the ground like the others and are guided down the back of the river in a cave.

It was pitch black for a moment till light streamed in the dark. My eyes began to blink multiple times till realization hit me, I was staring above at palm leaves that had light cast down onto them giving the inside of feel of green whimsical feeling.

’Asema,’ Wolf thought sliced through my mind as if he been trying to call me and finally get through.

’Wolf ’ I replied, and he didn’t take a second.

’They are earth elves, be wary like with fairies’ he warned and sudden silence as his connection was cut off.

The elves lead us through what seemed like a home or palace yet a jungle as it had openings for windows, archways above structure to look beautiful gothic period. With winding hallways, they led us down some stairs that looked as they were ancient crack stone with roots coming out. That was not the case it was part of a design. Soon darkness began to surround us as the stone wall began to fade out from the jungle home. I must have tuned out most of everything when clicking of unnatural steps echoed through the hall as their steps must have been soft walking through the kingdom I assume.

The corridor became darker though tree branches were still visible. I moved myself around and saw Thuse paler than he was when flying a ghostly white. Wolf beside him concentrating on something. Emily and Damon also like me looking around the area probably thinking hot to get out. I repositioned looking in front and saw three cells with branches and vines as the cages.

The head with tree silver tattoo on her face stood before the prison as we behind her. She raise her hand and waved it. Before my eyes the branches and vines withered away creating entryway I assumed for us.

She nodded with her head and the three that fought with us guided our hovering bodies to the cells. One for Wolf and I and we were slammed against the cobble stone mixed in with the dirt. I gasped at the pain as did Wolf. I stretched my gaze up to see our prison door closing up as the branches and vines twisted together. Behind it Emily and Damon thrown into the cell opposite of us and their prison closed. A heavy made grunt echoed next to our prison and I am guessing that was Thuse.
