Chapter 9 - Chapter Nine

In the city, close to the shore of the river. A tent is set up close to the riverside,a young lady is seen in the tent sleeping peacefully with a lit lantern at the top of her pillow where her head rested at and a pile of book a few distance away from the lantern. It was set up in a self apartment way, the tent was big enough for some equipment and other stuffs and still provided a single bed space.

"Florida! Florida! Florida get up! Get up now!" She heard a voice calling her.

" Who are you ?Who is there?" She asked panicking as she place her hand under her bed and brought out a small dagger.

"I ask who is that?"

' Hush! Keep it down. it's me."

" Who are you?" She asked turning in circles and couldn't find anyone in the tent but she was sure that someone was inside with her.

" Did the cult sent you? Did they cast an invisible spell on you? Did they ask you to kill me? Have they caught Mateo?" She was asking so many questions at a time out of fear.

" Will you shut up! What nonsense are you blabbing about right now?"

" This is not the time to ask questions grab the spell book and follow me."

" Is that an order? Do you think I will just stand up and follow you an invisible being! If you want to lure me at least use the right procedures Cast the spell or something, or are you new in the cult?"

" Ah! Could Alaska be so draft that she sent a newbie to capture an experience witch? " She said whispering.

" Just wait, let me grab the spell book. Then I shall deal with you." She said as she move her hand and took out the spell book from the pile of books beside her lantern.

" Fool . Alaska didn't send me and I standing right in front of you."

" Where? Are you naturally stupid or dumb? I can't see you or are you saying am blind right now? But if am blind, I couldn't have located the spell book."

The spirited being sighed." Florida, I just don't know what to do to you!"

" Wait!" She said flipping through the spell book." Find it!" She shouted pointing her dagger in front of her.

" Do you know what this is? Am sure you don't. I will cast a spell that sends spirit to the afterworlds either dead or alive, it is a very dreadful spell."

" What do you mean! Don't do that! You can't do that Florida! " The spirit shouted.

" Then tell me who you are! And who sent you!"

" Don't do that please, it is so dangerous. That spell book is so powerful."

" Then tell me who you are!! Why are you still blabbing!"She screams swinging the dagger trying to cut the invisible person.

" Okay, alright I will tell you,but stop pointing your dagger in the wrong position. Am behind you."

" Is this funny to you? " She asked turning back.

" It is me Mateo, but am at your front now."
