So Jason does not know me, at ALL, because if he did? He would know I'm not gonna just sit here like an obedient puppy. Then, the fact he got my best friend in on it? Yeah, no. I just had to get away from this Knight. I was not going to do 'nothing'.
"Where is the library again?" I asked the Knight.
"Just around the corner, Princess." He replied, with no emotion at all in his voice.
As soon as we turned the corner I was in awe. It was a beautiful area, it had windows so you could see out into the garden below, it had a mural on the ceiling and you can tell it was a story. I want to know the story, maybe Jason will tell me one day. It was covered in books. Every single wall, covered. There was a tray of food and a cup on the table. He really works fast I see. I was grateful for this gesture.
I thanked the Knight, he bowed and left.
Once he was gone I peeked around and saw no one was in sight.
I quietly walked to the the door across the way and knocked softly.
"Come In."
I opened the door and closed it softly.
"Ah. I knew it wouldn't be long until you came knocking on my door." He smiled evilly, it gave me the chills.
"I..I want to learn how to tap into my magic and use it." I said standing up right.
"Well, first things first. Please sit and relax. You cannot tap into it being tense."
I walked over to the couch next to his desk and sat down.
He moved his chair so he was sitting in front of me. He looked so serious and spoke in monotone.
"I must warn you- this will probably hurt. You are going to be activating magic that is in your blood. Royal's usually do this at birth. But whatever happens, you have to remain calm. If you freak out, it will make your blood pressure rise from the sudden change and it can make you pass out."
I nodded in agreement.
"Okay. I am going to say the spell that will activate your magic. You have to drink this first and once its finished lay down. I will start the ritual once you are laying down."
"O-Okay." I stuttered, nervously.
He walked over to this table next to the couch and started mixing some things in a cup. A few minutes go by and he walks back over and hands me the cup.
"Before we begin, do you want me to get Sir Jason to join us?" he asked.
"uhh... no..." I said gripping the cup and looking down at it.
He raised his eyebrows, "Are you sure? This can be a bit.. much." he said with this confused look.
"Umm.. he doesn't.. know I'm here... doing this." I said quietly.
He stepped back, eyebrows raised. "I do not think we should do this without him knowing, Princess. This will cause him to outrage. Nothing goes unknown in his home." He said sternly, and very surprised.
"Look. It is my body, my magic, it is MY choice. I want to help save my mother. This is the only way to help. Please. I will tell him after the ritual."
I could tell he did not want to do this. He looked at me and did not say a word.
"Please. I will not be able to live with myself if something happens to her when I could have done something to prevent it." I felt my eyes start to water.
He sighed and came over to me. "If Sir Jason asks, I am ghost in your plan. Understood?"
I nodded, half smiling, knowing Jason wouldn't agree to me doing this right now.
I drank the mix and it was awful, I gagged once and Alexander looked at me with concern. I had to hold my nose for the rest of it. I just thought of it as a shot of vodka, and finished it.
I laid down and he stood next to the couch. "Remember, try not to freak out. Your veins will feel like they are boiling. You need to think of a happy place and stay there. Otherwise this will be a very long, hard process."
"Okay. How will I know when you are done?" I asked, looking at him.
He smirked, "Trust me Princess, you'll know."
I sighed and closed my eyes. I could hear him mumbling words I've never even heard of, and I could feel my body start to heat up. Happy place Iz, happy place.
I could feel my body get hotter and hotter and I started to sweat. I let out a little cry, and quickly covered my mouth with my hand. My body felt like someone lit a match and the flame just kept getting bigger and bigger. I opened my eyes and Alexander was still mumbling words and moving his hands in circles above my body. It felt like someone took the air out of the room and I suddenly couldn't breathe. I choked out, "A-A-Alex.." and that was all I could get out. He opened his eyes and said "I am almost done, hold on, This part will hurt the most. Happy Place Isabelle."
This part will hurt the most?! I am already feeling like I'm drowning in a pool of fire! I start to think about my happy place. My happy place... sitting on a beach with my family and enjoying a mimosa. Tanning and listening to my sister and mom talk about things going on in there lives. Oh I would give anything to be-.
"AHHHHHHH!" I yelled as my body lifted in the air slightly and my clothes drenched in sweat.
I heard the door fly open and heard, "ISABELLE!" I knew I was busted. I could not focus on that right now, I could only focus on the fact that I was literally floating and my body felt like fire.
"SIR JASON NO! You cannot stop this. If you do, it will damage her forever!" I heard Kyle yell from behind Jason.
Jason fell to his knees. I heard Kyle say. "What The ---".
Then- everything went black.
