A dark, gray cloud hovered over us and swooped down into Mystery Garden where we were standing. I caught a glimpse of a tall man with dark circles around his eyes and was wearing gray all over, and I didn't know if I was going crazy but, he strangely had legs as clouds.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"Who am I?" The man asked and gave a nasty, loud laugh. "Well I am the great Alex of course."
"So you are the Alex that killed my parents or in your case, the king and queen.
"Looks like your guardian has already filled you on everything about me, I'm I clear Gabriela."
"Um... yes but--
"No buts as long as I'm right." Alex said shoving a hand in my face.
"H-hello A-Alex, is it t-true that you actually k-kill other fairies." Luna stammered.
Alex laughed, but not just any laugh, an evil laugh. A laugh that would make your heart tear apart. Theo, Luna and Lucas ran beside me for comfort.
"Sweetheart, I was born to kill." Alex said, casually while stroking the edge of Luna's cheek.
"Get your filthy hands off of her!" I screamed at the top of my lungs while crying at the same time.
Alex started to form the dead storm Twilight told us about, and with a blink of an eye, Luna, Lucas and Theo were all gone.
"NOOOOOOO!" I yelled. "Twilight, Alex took my friends away! Please, we need to get them back!
Twilight took me into her arms when I broke out in tears. I needed her comfort or else I would get out of control, so I hugged Twilight back as if she was my own mother.
"What is he going to do to them, Twilight?" I forced out.
"I don't know honey, but for sure it's not good."
"Then what should we do?"
"I think we should go find your friends. Your training is very good so we might have better chances of defeating Alex. However it will be very dangerous."
That name just wants me to finish Alex and break everything he owns. But I have to be strong. I can't lose hope. I promise that I will bring my friends home safely.
"Gabriela you should go home and rest, I will keep Drago here with me." Twilight said picking up Drago.
"Yeah, but you will be here right. Please don't go anywhere please?"
"I won't, Gabriela. Don't be so ridiculous."
"Ok," I said forcing weak smile. "Goodnight Drago, goodnight Twilight."
"Goodnight dear."
I couldn't sleep at all. I kept worrying that if I close my eyes I will get captured by Alex too. What am I supposed to tell Theo, Luna, and Lucas's parents? The truth or the lie?
