Chapter 10 - The Crystal Of Dark Realm

"The realm can't be controlled", She heard a strange voice. 'The crystal can talk?' She thought

"How can it talk?" The brown eyes could have popped out of her sockets as she heard the stone crystal talking. She was rooting for it so as to get a hold of my powers.

"I am the damn person whose body this is, " Her yelling surrounded the hollow facet of her inside soul place. After getting none of a reply, she moved forward, "This is mine," She shouted again.

"Dark matter prison!" The same voice thrilled inside the hollow space again. Ella's senses became aware of the fact that something was reaching towards her. She started to look everywhere in defence.

"What's happening?" Her movements froze. The hands which were dared to fight back with Kellen's takt running around her arms, she wasn't able to move an inch. The vanilla scented girl felt a force that stood as it covered her body, halting her moves.

"What..is..?" She tried to yell as her face was being forced to stop. All of the signature steps were impelled to become a statue.

"You are inside a prison." She heard it right this time, coming straight from the crystal. Ella was curious from the moment she discovered a crystal inside her soul facet, and made her wanted to look closer into it. To see what lay inside it.

"You do know that you are talking to the dark powers of the realm?" Again it questioned her. Her straight wavy hairs were the only things which moved freely while her whole figure was still.

"Mmmm mhmm" She forced her tongue to strived through . A latching force was cutting every sense except her hearing.

The crystal may have thrown a little mercy at her. A sprinkling sound managed to enter her ears. Her lips were slightly turning to move.

"Aah, I Eeee, uuuu.." The sensible girl checked to see if it was real.

"Talk,'' It said. It seemed annoyed with his fuming sigh.

"No, You talk" Ella implored loudly. "This is my body and who do you think you are to say that to me?" She curiously followed the glow of the crystal. 'Flashing beams at me, cannot cooperate, and now putting me in a prison.' She thought in a disgruntled manner. This thing is way too feisty and she hated it guts.

"Dark powers cannot be controlled. So just go and don't try to come here, tot" It said. Ella's brown eyes narrowed with a slash of curiousness running inside her veins. She didn't understand what it tried to say. But referring to her as a kid increased her blood boiling and anger.

"I am not a kid," Ella shouted.

Getting none of a response, she again yelled. "Hey, shut up and go away!" Her rage increased as the way this thing was trying to order around.

"Because of you, I couldn't create a shell. I have to pass this so that I can enter the test and show my powers to everyone. Well actually If it were one person then it's Kellen who I really want to show my powers. He is amazing. The way he carried me in his arms, helped me from not falling. His beautiful eyes watched me with care because of the torn top… Talking about his eyes, he does have the same eye colour as the book which I read today. Moreover, resembles the character from the book. His eyes, his looks, his personality all of this fits the description inside it. And there's someone named Ella which has the same name as mine. Well I couldn't be more thrilled if in the book they are at least together. I can live with th..."

"...Shut your mouth." Another raspy voice with a pleading shout bolted her ears.

She huffed a big breath in, closing my eyes. Ella cracked her knuckles into a fist, "Hey, I will catch hold of this power because it is mine." and moved forward hastily. "This locket was given to me by an exceptional person and I am not going to let it go like this"

Ella said being determined. With another strike, she infused Kellen's power in right hand moving forward at the crystal.

"You are not my Mom nor my Papa to tell me what to do or put restrictions on me!" Ella roared out loud even scaring herself a little at the end.

"Don't shout at me!" It said with a higher toned voice.

"Don't order me!" She bounced back, yelling at it.

"Humans are so annoying," It said as a bright red flash of power glowed brighter in front of her engulfed by the crystal. The strong aura it built around it was powerful enough to blow everything away by just being in close contact with it.

"Oww '' The red takt while having summoned over the crystal harshly landed a strong blow at the coffee haired girl. She touched her elbow and rubbed on it briskly.

Even having Kellen's power over her hand, this was something more and depth in power. Ella saw the dragon wings shaped aura building strong around the crystal. A mist of wave running inside the aura while thin slick veins adjoined together and connected at one point which was the crystal. Ella ran towards the other side to dodge it but it was the same on every angle amassing the huge size of this takt. Ella kept running around in circles while her mind went blank on what to do and not. "What is this?" She intoned, getting scared.

"What if I die?" She said in the upcoming horror of visions. A big glow emerged out of it. The Red coloured takt was bright and powerful. The light caramel skinned could feel the powers surging out of the crystal pointing her. 'Perhaps, if I ran far away from it, then it won't reach me.' She thought. But the odds of it were what if it totally destroys her from the inside. The pace was incredibly fast and quick. Runaway was not an option and Ella couldn't do anything as the strong wings had already caught hold of her arms in its clasp. The Red cloak of emerging power covered her hastily as she could only wait for it to destroy her soul completely. "I haven't even said anything to Kellen about my big crush on him." The cheeks flushed on her face as she mentioned his name in a sad tone.

"Goodbye, Kellen," Ella said as if her voice could reach Kellen through his takt. She closed her eyes knowing that it could happen anytime and clutched her hands into fist to take the pain in any form.

"We will meet in the Middle," She murmured slowly as it felt like nothing. "No flashback of my life in front of me as I was on my dying stage. What happened to the truth-seeking reality about people dying and having a dream about how they lived their life." She yelled while accepting the harsh truth of life which was sudden death.

"You are such an unusual child." She heard a familiar voice but couldn't believe that she was already dead. It was painless. She was too annoyed on the mere thing of her not having any amusing flashbacks of her life and ignored the cursed fate.

"Huuhh?" Ella opened her eyes, adjusting to the normal reality. "What happened?" Her furrowed eyebrows and wavy eyes looked around and found herself at the same place where she was before. Nothing has changed except the fact that the red cloak power was still around her.

"What is this?" She looked at the huge amount of takt coming through inside of this strange crystal which had just boosted up her inner Takts. Energy started to build up inside her.

"Can't you see? It is so that you could stop talking nonsense here," The Crystal casually said.

"You are really dense and cold," She said glaring at him and kept suspecting where the voice was coming from.

" Is that a problem?" It threatened the brown eyed girl. She grinned at the thought that this powerful crystal was feeling uneasy at her presence.

"You don't like humans and still you are somehow helping one," She said, smirking. The rims of her downturned lips formed a thin stretched line of smile exaggerating the sarcasm behind it.

"Don't try to play sneaky with me" The crystal yelled and this time it didn't bothered the vanilla scented girl at all this time.

"You know what, those thoughts are gonna change soon," Ella turned around swiftly with her Dragon cloak wing shaped takt covered her from the outside.

"Just a fantasy" It scoffed at what she was implying.

"You just changed it when you gave me some of your power on your own," She slightly looked back at the crystal with her face.

"It's nothing like that" It yelled with a worried tone.

"Ohhh, I get it," Ella watched in awe at the huge dragon cloak formed around her body. Starting from the top of her head the colour of this power was just like from one of the clusters. The garnet red takt was shaped like the wings of a dragon. Ella was already glad that it didn't kill her or something like that. It looked like a huge storage of power as it covered the coffee haired girl in its treasure. Slowly the dragon cloak dissolved into her figure as if infusing her from inside.

Returning back to her own self, she slowly opened her eyes. A frowned Kellen with his brows pulled much hastily was looking at her stretched up oval face.

"Ohhh finally," He said, taking his hand away from her palm.
