Rydia's Wonderland
Chapter I
Banish
"So, is he coming?" Terra asked as she put her dagger in its sheath.
"I don't think so? He didn't say anything. He just walked away." Rydia answered while she clipped her rose hair pin in place, "I doubt he will though."
"Awe...phooey. He promised he would.." Terra whimpered. The two of them later walked out of the Training Class and down a long hall full of portraits of students from years back who had passed the Test. They soon were close to the buildings exit when a strange wail startled them.
"W-what was that?" Terra asked Rydia in a frightened voice.
"I don't know but it's probably nothing. Let's go or we'll be late."
"Why is it so c-cold all of a sudden?" Terra whined.
"*sigh* How should I kn-" But before Rydia could finish a Kurazu (Kur-Ah-Zoo) appeared.
"W-what is that...?" Terra asked while slowly slipping behind Rydia.
" That , is a Kurazu . It has the ability to use magic spells, but this one's just a baby so it can only use Basic Level One Magic which are, Water, Lighting, Fire, and uhh.. Ice. Yeah those four."
"So...can you take it on..?" Terra asked slowly nudging Rydia in the back.
"N-no..."
"Why not?" Terra whined again.
"Because I remembered one more Basic Magic..."
"Which would beee...?"
"Earth.." Rydia said with a gulp.
"Oh...so...do we run?" Terra asked trying not to panic.
"Yeah pretty much!"
The two girls bolted past the beast and through the door.
"Where do we go?" Terra yelled out to Rydia.
"Uhhmm...to the Chocobo Forest." Rydia yelled back.
They made haste toward the forest. They were almost there and the Kurazu was just 8 feet away, staring at Terra with blood thirsty eyes. When Rydia entered the forest, she called for Terra. She called and called until she got a shriek in response. Rydia felt a wave of concern and ran to the shrieks she heard. Hoping that they weren't Terra's. Rydia kept running and running until she came to a wide opening , still in the forest, and saw the Kurazu just feet away from a girl who was hurt. The injured girl was wearing the same colored clothes as Terra was, but Rydia wasn't sure if it was Terra because she couldn't get a glimpse of the girls face.
"Leave the girl alone you monster!" Rydia yelled while getting into fighting stance. But the Kurazu just snarled at Rydia and walked toward the injured girl.
"Don't touch her! Blizzard!" Rydia had used the Black Magic Spell, Blizzard, a Level One Ice attack. But the monster dog howled, and out of nowhere an orb of Fire appeared, making the Ice attack useless.
"Just go..." The girl said weakly gesturing with her hand.
"No! I can't leave knowing that you might die!". Rydia took a deep breath and looked back at the monster, "Try blocking this you mutt! Thunder! ". But the monster only shielded from the attack using Blizzard and countered with Fire.
"Please, just leave me..." The girl begged.
Rydia winced in pain from the Fire attack. "N-not a chance. Here we go, take this you monster! Water!" Rydia conjured up some water and sent it flying toward the Kurazu at a high speed but the dog froze the water using Blizzard, but it only made the impact on him harder, sending him a few feet back. Rydia giggled with joy and said, "Alright! I hit h-". But suddenly Rydia was stunned, paralyzed, and fell to the ground. The only thing she could do was cry in pain as sparks of electricity were hurting her.
"I told you to leave..." The girl said as she slowly got up off the ground. "But instead you chose to stay and attacked my dog. You will pay." The girl lifted her right hand, and snapped her fingers. "BANISH!" at the sound of the word a dark void was summoned, engulfing Rydia... "Come my dear Kurazu . Let me heal your wounds."
