"Yes your majesty, why you summoned me here lord?" A guard came and asked. The king of Agarbad was in a fix as he failed in finding a good swordsman to teach his daughter master in swords.

"Ah, you know, I am tired of this. I have been searching for so long and the ones come are always for money only. What will I do now minister?" The king asked minister with a sigh. He then called a guard.

He came and asked, "Yes your majesty, why you summoned me here lord?"

"Ah you know its been so long i have been searching for a good swordsman and failed. I think I might end up appointing one of the guards for this job if it continue like this. So can you do a help by finding a guard good at swords?" The king asked the guard.

" Your majesty can i give an opinion. Its just an opinion. I know a boy whose father used to work here as a guard in the palace. You know lord that kid is so good with swords. Would you like to meet him your majesty?" A little light of hope came to the king's eyes and asked the guard to bring him to the palace.

Later the guard came with the boy to the palace. He was a boy around an age of 20, little long brown hair with light brown eyes. The king asked one of his guards to give the boy a sword and other to fight. As they fought, the king was impressed by the boy's moves. He ordered to stop and asked the boy how much he want in return for teaching the princess. He replied that he only needed enough money to take care of his mother and buy food. The king was impressed by him again and asked him to come and train the princess every evening. And from the next day onwards he started to go there daily in evening and train the princess.

One day during the session she suddenly started to ask some questions. "Hey boy, What is your name? Princess asked.

" Ali " he replied.

"Do you know my name?" Princess further asked.

"Who doesn't, its Zarina. I know." he replied.

"What is this? Are you a human or a half - live zombie? No emotions, stone and cold talk, Do you know who I am? I am the princess and I--"

"Get whatever you want?" The boy interrupted.

"Oh dear, I am not asking anything," Princess said as if she was fed up by Ali's attitude.

One day while Ali was on his way to the palace. Dark clouds surrounded him, so dark the town looked like it was night. When he looked down, he saw a small man wearing a shiny golden hoodie like dress with a magic wand like stick in it's left hand standing straight infront of him. Because of the cap of the hood it's face was not visible. It suddenly shot a golden dust ball towards Ali. He dodged it but knew that thing is a trouble so he started running and the small man followed him shooting the dust balls.

In the palace, the princess was waiting impatiently. "He is late, guard go and find him and bring him to me." princess ordered angrily.

The guards left to find him. Then princess turned to the window and dark thick clouds had surrounded the palace. Then a small man with golden hoodie was standing a few meters away from her and started to shoot the same golden dust balls at princess. She dodged it and started to run through the hallways. She then reached her room and she shut the door behind her. Trying to catch breath princess started walking towards her bed, but she stopped after seeing the small man near the window. This time instead of running this time she grabbed her sword and charged at it. She dodged all the golden dust and stabbed the little man. It turned into golden powder. She then put her sword away and sat down on the bed.

A while later her best friend Ember came into her room shouting, " Princess... Where ar-- Oh here you are. I had been looking for you everywhere. Why are you in your bedroom? Aren't you supposed to be in the sword session? Where is that boy? If you didn't attend the session, why are you sweating like this and trying catch breath? What happened princess?"

"Oh my lord, Em calmdown I will tell you ." by saying Zarina started saying what happened about the small man and the golden dust. Scratching her silky black hair Ember excused herself and started to search her bag.

Ember was trying to study witchcraft and had done so many crazy things. She took out a book and looked at it searching for something. She then took a page and showed it to Zarina a page with the same small man with the golden hoodie, "This , this," princess said pointing at the page.

"This thing tried to attack me . What are these?"

Ember looked at the book then back at princess and said, "These are Gigrlis . You know the magic I am trying to possess? Magic of chaos. Yes, and the queen of this magic only has the power to summon them. Then she tell her targets to them and the will take those targets to her."

" What? What does the queen whom I haven't even heard of had to do with me?" Princess asked. Ember looked at her as she didn't know what to say.

"Hey do you think this thing might have took Ali too?" Ember asked.

"What? Oh my god you. I don't even know the queen and I haven't ever seen this boy before. Stop your imagination for once." Princess said as she was fed up.

"Okay, Okay, forgive me, I was just joking princess. But I do have something to say. These Gigrlis take their targets to somewhat secret place in the town. So princess do you know any place like that?"

"Um... Let me think. Ya do you remember the old prison under the palace?" Princess asked Ember.

"But princess didn't that prison fell down when we were like 7 years old?" Ember asked with a confusion.

" Yes that's exactly my point, that is what everyone thought even I did, but recently I discovered that father had it reconstructed an year after it fell . So doesn't it make the place secret?" Princess asked.

"Yes princess perfect so lets go there and check there we would be able to find something." Ember said excitedly. Princess agreed.

They then went down to the prison. It was all empty. Ember took the lead and they both started to walk forward. Suddenly Ember started to scream. Princess ran towards her and stood there in horror.
