Chapter 11 - Eris The Helper

"I am not desperate." Zephyrus convinced herself "I AM NOT"

TEN SECONDS LATER

"ERIS, SHOW ME THE WAY" Zephyrus chanted the phrase. When she was suddenly transported at a shabby shack? In front of her is an office surrounded by a massive array of trash and stone statues around the place.

POOF

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Zephyrus yelled.

"Oops sorry didn't mean to scare you, dear client" A woman wearing a priest uniform apologized to Zephyrus.

Zephyrus calmed herself and asked the woman who she was. "I'M ERIS - THE ONE YOU CALLED FOR"

"Oh" Zephyrus replied not really expecting the phrase she chanted would summon her to a shack and meet the so-called Eris that was mentioned in the flyer.

Eris then teleported to her seat where she began to spin around in circles for a few seconds and abruptly halted. "Why have you called for me - What's your problem huh? Dead family? Revenge? MURDER? The death of your ENEMY" Eris cackled madly before composing herself.

"That was awkward" Zephyrus thought to herself "How did you know? My troubles" Zephyrus interrogated the woman.

"WELL I AM WHAT PEOPLE CALL BUT HAVE NO WORRY DEAR ZEPHYRUS I SHALL HELP YOU"

"How?"

"It's SIMPLE" Eris began to sang a tune~ "The only way to get revenge is to become the enemy yourself"

"But I don't know how to do that," Zephyrus said. "My dear, sweet child. That's what I do. It's what I live for. To help unfortunate people, like yourself. Poor souls with no one else to turn to" Eris sang

"I admit that, in the past, I've been a nasty

They weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch

"Uhh I didn't know you were a witch" Zephyrus said with clear worry written on her face. Eris stopped the spotlights that were directed unto her and shushed Zephyrus before snapping her fingers to continue her song.

But you'll find that nowadays

I've mended all my ways

Repented, seen the light, and made a switch

And I fortunately know a little magic

It's a talent that I always have possessed

And here lately, please don't laugh

I use it on behalf of the miserable, lonely, and depressed"

"PATHETIC" Eris spoke

Poor unfortunate souls

In pain, in need

This one longing to be thinner

That one wants to get the girl

And do I help them? Yes, indeed

Those poor unfortunate souls

So sad, so true

They come flocking to my cauldron

Crying, "Spells,Eris, please!"

And I help them! Yes, I do

Now, it's happened once or twice

Someone couldn't pay the price

And I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals

Yes, I've had the odd complaint

But on the whole, I've been a saint

To those poor unfortunate souls"

"Now here is the deal little fairy" Eris started "I will give you the power to defeat even those strongest in that so called Arm and information to join them and start doing revolution or whatever"

"You could do that?" Zephyrus said with an amazed face.

"Yes but here is the deal- you have THREE YEARS and if you weren't able to complete your mission well you would turn into one of my collections" Eirs said with an evil look at herself pointing at the stone statues at the back of her closet.

'GULP' Zephyrus got scared but ultimately decided to do the deal. "It's a deal - I'll rather take your chance and gain power than to spend my entire life trying to get revenge that I couldn't reach.

Eris grinned "Well then I guess I should receive your advance payment first" "What advance payment" Zephyrus questioned and then felt PAIN SO MUCH PAIN. Zephyrus felt like she was burning but the one thing that she felt the most is that she lost something important.

"AHHHHHH" Zephyrus gasped, losing her strength. All she could do was lay on the floor while trying to endure the pain she felt. 'What was that" She wondered when she saw what Eris was holding. "MY WINGS"

"Oh STOP being so dramatic darling - you'll get this back well if you succeed that is and YOU HAVE POWER which is much better than this flimsy thing you call your wings"

"But" "NO BUTS - If you want to get it back and not face certain stone death. All you gotta do is take down that Arm Organization" Eris snapped her fingers. Then the screen went black
