Ch 1
It was Winter in the Enchanted Village. In the Roundabout, in his ice cold prison Zeebad was feeling many emotions as he watched Zebedee and his friends playing in the snow and ice. He wanted so much to be out there revelling in the weather he enjoyed so much. A tear came to his black eye but he tried holding it back but there was no use. He sighed as he heard it drop onto the icy floor. "Why am I feeling sad? Winter, the one thing I enjoy better than torturing Zebedee is here and I can't enjoy it because I'm in here. Besides even if I wanted to go out there, Zebedee and his friends would run away." He thought. His black moustache crackled with icy lightning. But his heart was saying other wise.
"That's not the reason why you're feeling so lonely. You need friends the same way you do snow and ice." It said softly. "No it's not!" he snapped angrily. "Everybody needs friends Zeebad. That's what makes life and things like Winter so great. Maybe they forgive you for taking the diamonds and trying to freeze Earth. You never know until you try." His heart replied. The light blue skinned Magical Springer thought about that. He knew he needed friends but was afraid. "But who'd want to be friends with a cold hearted Magical Springer like me?" he thought as his hand touched his brown vest. He then saw somebody sitting on her own on the Roundabout. She had black hair with light blue streaks running through it, wore a black T shirt with a snow flake on it, black jeans and ankle boots. Zeebad seemed enchanted by her. "Why does she not play with Zebedee and his friends? That's odd. Maybe she'd... want to be friends with me." he thought as he appeared beside her. She was shocked by his suddenly being there but calmed down. "Hello I'm Zeebad. Why're you sitting here on the Roundabout on your own?" he said to her. She smiled at him. He then saw her eyes glow with icy magic. "My name is Entra. I ran away because people were trying to misuse me for my magical powers. I have no control over them. I'm the product of what happens when a Magical Springer and a mortal have a child." she told him softly.
He understood as he brought his hand to hers and icy lightning ctackled from it. "Whose child are you?" Zeebad asked her gently. He knew what it was like to be an out cast. She pointed to Zebedee. A smile crossed the icy Magical Springer's face at this. "You're Zebedee's daughter? Does he know yet?" he asked her. "No he doesn't. I wanna tell him. I'm ... just afraid." she answered. "Afraid of what?" he asked her softly. "Afraid of him rejecting me like my Mom did but she told me I'd be sade here with my father. I have a letter to give him but I'm not sure." Entra replied. He understood. He felt good inside. He realised something. Entra could be his friend. They both had the same powers and liked Winter. "You can stay with me tonight if you want. Tomorrow we'll sort everything out, okay Entra?" Zeebad told her. He watched as night fell and Florence and the others went home. Entra hid behind a horse so Zebedee wouldn't see her. She watched as he vanished to his house in the woods. Zeebad smiled as he led her into his prison in the core of the Roundabout. He then saw her fall asleep on the icy ground.
He then watched her as she began to close her eyes. "Zeebad we're friends right?" she asked drowsily. "Yes we... are but your father mightn't understand that. Good night Entra." he answered softly. He watched her fall asleep. A good feeling was washing over his body and he knew why. He felt that he and Entra could be friends if Zebedee let them... Entra had woken up already, Zeebad watched as she approached Zebedee nervously. "Are you alright?" he asked her. She nodded as she gave him the letter her mother had wrote explaing about her. Mr Rusty watched as Zebedee's red skin went white. Zeebad then saw him hug Entra. This made him sad. "Goodbye Entra." he whispered as he hid behind a horse on the Roundabout. Sam saw the look on Zeebad's face as he watched him vanish back into his prison. Sam was the one who stood on top of the Roundabout and guarded Zeebad on Zebedee's understanding terms. He then went into the core of the Roundabout where Zeebad's prison was. When he walked in, he heard Zeebad moaning in his sleep. "Are you okay? You sound miserable." Sam said to him. He opened his eyes to see Sam sitting beside him on the icy ground. He looked into Zeebad's eyes and saw hurt. "Is it something to do with Entra?" he asked. Zeebad nodded in reply.
"Yes it is. I almost became friends with her but Zebedee is her father and he'll tell her to avoid me like everybody else does." he told him. Sam understood. "Maybe not. She liked you at first sight so she'll still be friends with you but if she doesn't , then I can be your friend." Sam told him. Zeebad smiled at that. "Yes I'd like that." Zeebad replied. He watched as Zeebad's eyes closed and the night passed. Zeebad hoped that he and Entra would still be friends...
