Chapter 57: The Dark Side Note: This chapter is completely third person. Anne woke up inside an icy prison. "Huh?" She rubbed her eyes and looked around. Her computer was on the ground, still open to Solitaire. "Great, he's gonna kill me." She groaned as the noticed that the prisoner was no longer inside the room. Coincidentally, Saevio walked into the room. "She escaped?" He inquired. Anne shrank into the corner of her prison. "Don't worry, I won't hurt you. It was probably because of me that she escaped. I'll need to break you out, so stay still." Saevio placed his palm on top of the ice. "Incinerate." He whispered. The ice melted and Anne stepped out. She suddenly sneezed. Sixela was examining her new room closely. She had it built to her exact specifications. It was almost an exact replica of Alexis's room in her Kerning house. Her 50 metre sword rested on a table, in its sheath. A silver-lined mirror was on the wall and a pink wardrobe sat in a corner. Someone sneezed downstairs and Sixela ran down. Anne was lying on the sofa with a red nose and Saevio bending over her. He placed his hands on her back. "I'll give you some more of my power. It should help fix the cold." He said warmly. Black streams of energy coursed down through his arms and into Anne's body. Her nose returned to its normal colour. Sixela stared at Saevio jealously. "I want some too." She moaned sensuously and grabbed Saevio's arm. The house Saevio's group was staying in was in a secluded location near Magatia. Magatia was a bustling town of alchemists, and its technology level was almost on par with Omega Sector. The house itself was built into a cliff, with the entrance in a nearby cave. Of course, it had no windows, but a ventilation shaft supplied fresh air into the house. Saevio entered his room and stayed inside for a few hours. When Anne creeped in to look an hour later, he had fallen asleep in front of his crystal ball. She smiled and draped a blanket over him. Suddenly, she noticed the spellbook in front of him. It was opened to a spell that was supposedly able to freeze souls. "Too advanced for me." She shook her head and left. Sixela was back in her room, polishing her giant sword. She raised it up and looked over it. It was shiny and hard. Lethal too. She placed her finger on the diamond embedded in the sword's hilt. It glowed black for a second, then the sword's sharp edges became serrated. Even more lethal. Sixela smiled ominously and slid the sword into its sheath. |
