Chapter 2

Gale's POV

It was morning already and the lights broke through the curtains of my windows. Ordinarily the light would be shining right into my eyes, constantly reminding me to change the position of my bed, but not today for some unknown reason. Even though it's autumn and all, it doesn't stop the light from waking me up every morning. This morning, I could feel the light…radiating from below me.

Witch.

That's right, yesterday, the witch decided to stay at my place. I finally cracked my eye lids open, (desperately) hoping that she did not wreck my house any further. I found myself facing up at the ceiling, which wasn't weird of course, no no, not weird at all…it's just that I'm facing the ceiling with only about 5 cm in between.

Witch.

I sighed, finally turning my head to the side to glance down at the floor, and just like I thought, the witch was holding me up in the air as a prisoner. Her face was distorted with concentration and her arms were outstretched, palms wide open, trying her best to hold me and my weight up in the air. From the amount of sweat she's producing, I could tell that it's taking all of her power to keep me here.

"Witch…." I called down to her, staring at her with my yellow eye. She looked up at me and smirked but that only caused her to lose her concentration and I started wavering in the air. I didn't react, folding my arms over my chest and heaving a tired sigh. I had a lot to do today and I didn't want to waste any time with her nonsense. "…Put me down right now." I ordered, but she only stuck out her tongue at me.

"This is what you get for treating me ill yesterday! You'll be staying up there all day!" She snickered before grinning smugly at me. I closed my eyes and sighed again.

"…Then you'll be standing there for the whole day then…if you walk, I'll fall…and you won't like it when I get down…"

"…"

Seems like she forgot to think about that…I rolled my eyes and stared at my long hair that was dangling down in the air. I haven't tied it yet so it was just hanging, flowing freely at my left side.

"I know you're patronizing me and my skills, Wizard! I can feel it!" She shouted from below, throwing another one of her pointless tantrums.

What the hell is she talking about…I haven't even said or thought about her skills yet. It hasn't even crossed my mind. I ignored her, trying my best to rule her annoying squawking out of my head. I was succeeding nicely until I noticed my telescope…has turned purple. I narrowed my eyes and looked back down at the culprit.

That's it…I have had enough of this childish nonsense.

With one swift upward movement of my arm, I raised the witch up into the air easily, not even using half the concentration she was. She gasped and I fell back down onto my bed. Now this time, I hold the cards. I looked up at her, who was twisting and turning angrily in the air, and smirked. I didn't even have to raise my arms or use any concentration to keep her up there, for me, this was easy as pie.

"Let me down this instant, Wizard!" She screamed, "Or I swear, I will-"

With a wave of my hand, I silenced her and walked away, leaving her hanging and shouting inaudibly in the air above my bed. I walked over to my telescope and started changing the color back to its original state by passing my hand up and down the color.

I glanced back up to see if she has calmed down yet, but she was still wriggling and thrusting, her lips moving indicating that she has not stopped talking, so I left her. I went to the kitchen and made myself a cup of tea and by the time I came back, she was calm and silent. I took a slow sip and looked up at her.

"….Will you stop ruining my things now?" I asked. She looked down at me and gave me a silent nod, but before I did anything, she pointed at her throat.

"…..Are you going to start shouting at me again?"

She shook her head and turned away without giving me another glance. Leave it to her to still look bossy when she's the one who should be asking for help. I slowly lowered her down to the bed and waved the silence magic off her. After being sure she was already on steady ground, she rolled off the bed, walked over to me and pulled my hair before stomping her feet on the ground like a child once more.

"You idiot! You snobby prick! You knew how much concentration it took me just to put you up there and you…you…just had to show off! Arghhh!" She continued to throw a fit while I just stood there watching, "I hate you Wizard, I HATE you!"

I shouldn't have let her come down. Consider my lesson learnt.

"And why did you have to silence me, huh? You jerk! You have been silencing me for over 150 years now whenever I shout at you!" Well…who wouldn't? "I still remember grandma telling you stop doing it and you never listen to her! Gahhhh! I wish she were here now!"

"…" Yeah, I remember her well. Grandma never really liked me silencing her, but I do it anyway when she's not around.

Oh, grandma was the old lady who took care of both of us when we were kids. She was an old witch who taught us the basics of magic before we moved out to go on our own separate ways. That was approximately 356 years ago. So we're not related in anyway, thank God. I don't know what I would do with a sister like her…

"Why don't you say anything huh? Ooooh, it makes me so mad just seeing you standing there in front of me." You were the one who came to me. "If this were my house, I would've kicked you out! You're lucky that we're in your house!"

"…So that means…I can kick you out of my house." I said calmly, my gaze slowly drifting to my door and back to her. She froze and started stammering as I felt an evil grin come along. Of course…I didn't show it, I just thought about it.

I swung the door wide open with a twist of my hand and made her things levitate and fly out of the door on its own accord. She stared after, speechless before gritting her teeth and started running up the stairs. I rose up my arm and aimed for her before doing a grabbing movement. She fell down and flew back down to where I stood, landing on her butt.

"…Goodbye Witch." I muttered as I picked her up and started carrying her towards the door as if she were a luggage. Too bad she won't go easily. She kept on flinging her arms and legs, but the magical barrier around me kept her from actually hitting me.

"No! You can't do this to me, Wizard! I don't have anywhere to go!"

"….Go to the inn."

"I can't go there! Let me stay here, we have been friends for over 300 years! I'll behave!" She pleaded, battering her eyelashes at me as she tried to soften me up.

Friends? I agree that we know each other for over 300 years, but we were never friends. She had always looked at me like her rival more than a friend. And I saw her as an annoying little bug that kept on bugging me whenever I don't need her.

I shook my head and was about to throw her out when someone stopped me.

"Stop!"

I turned my head to see where the voice came from and froze when I saw who it was. It was Molly, the farmer who lived in the town. My heart starting beating rapidly and my hands started to sweat.

It was her…

"Excuse me! Mr. Fortune Teller!"

"…?"

It was about 8 months and 23 days ago when I first met her. I was standing outside my house, minding my own business when a woman ran up to me, panting and out of breath. When she finally stood up straight, she gave me the most beautiful and genuine smile I ever saw. I stood there, stunned with her natural beauty.

…Did she just call me 'Mr. Fortune Teller'?

"Oh, I'm so glad I found you!" She said and I could not help but blush slightly. The way she said it sends a pleasant shiver down my spine.

"….Hello." I muttered shyly, looking down at her. She looked tall for a female, but she was still shorter than me…and the witch.

Without any notice, she took my hand and shook it whilst introducing herself. "Hey there, I'm Molly and I'm kinda new in town and….umm…I really need your help." She said shyly, taking out a hibiscus flower out of her bag.

And before I realized it, I was back in my house mixing a spell to help cure the witch from her amphibious status. The state she brought onto herself when she tried to revive the Goddess Tree. I admit I could have cured her at any time I wanted to if I wanted, finding the ingredients needed was easy….but I was trying to teach her a lesson. To listen to what I say before making any stupid spells that'll get her in trouble. This wasn't the first spell she messed up, and it was certainly not going to be her last.

After knowing each other for centuries, she has always been depending on me to undo any idiotic mistake that she's made. She was worse than a 5 year old! She never learnt from her past mistakes and relied on me to be her mess cleaner.

I sighed and put in the last ingredient into the pot and stirred, transferring the liquid into a flask before tucking it into my coat pocket. I walked towards Molly and gestured towards the door, "It's done…."

She smiled and nodded, trailing closely behind me as we walked to the Witch's house. I couldn't help but become impressed and amazed with her, Molly, and how she was able to obtain all the three ingredients I needed. It wasn't something that can be easily obtained in a few days for a human, and yet she found them all. As we went through the Fugue Forest and she followed me as I directed her to the Witch's house in the bog. There was a surprisingly large amount of male frogs outside her house…

We went inside and found the witch eating the flies that were stuck to the honey pot on her dining table. I wanted to throw up and laugh at the same time. The Witch saw me and started to hop angrily, making her little frog noises as she threw an amphibian tantrum. Instantly, my hand came up to massage my temple as I listened to her going ribbit ribbit constantly. She was still the same no matter in what kind of situation…

"Be quiet…" I said, pouring the cure into her open mouth. She swallowed loudly and blue light shined out from her pink spotty body, blinding my eyes. I used my arm to block the light and when the light disappeared, there stood the Witch Princess in the frog's place.

She still seemed a little bit dizzy at first but then she was jumping and screaming happily in the air in no time.

"Yay! I'm finally back to normal! " She said happily, Molly clapping her hands for some unknown reason. I stood staring at her in boredom, waiting to hear what the Witch has to yell at me this time. And just like I guess, she turned around to face me, taking a few steps to stand face to face with me with her arms crossed at her chest.

"What the hell took you so long?" She yelled, "I was stuck as a frog for FOREVER!" It was only a few months, she should be grateful I didn't leave her for a year like how I planned to. "I had to eat flies! And I was all slimy! It was AWFUL!"

"Well, I told you not to use that spell…" I said calmly, causing her to look even angrier.

"So you left me as a frog to teach me a lesson? THAT'S JUST MEAN!" She screamed. Molly who was witnessing our usual daily arguments was looking panicked and worried.

"Well did it work?" I asked. I was really curious…and hopeful. If it worked, that would mean that she got a little smarter than before and that I wouldn't have to help undo her messed up spells any longer.

"ARGHHHHH! You make me so mad! I hate you!"

"…" That means no.

"Get out!" She said, nodding her towards the door before stomping away to the bathroom. This wasn't the first time she ordered me to get out of her house or said that she hated me, but truthfully, it stung a little every time she does.

"…" I didn't say anything but just walked out, Molly following right behind me. I turned to look back at the house and sighed quietly, turning back to look at Molly. She still looked sort of worried and panicked.

"Well, it looks like I'm done here. I'll see you later." And with that, I walked away to go home back in Harmonica Town.

"Wait!" Molly suddenly shouted, running up to me. I stared down at her and waited to see what she has to say. She ransacked through her bag, muttering 'where is it' over and over again to herself. Her expression brightened when she found 'it', whatever 'it' is. She smiled at me apologetically as she handed me a….fu-FUGUE MUSHROOM? The only reaction I had on my face that was expressing my shock and happiness was the slight widening of my eyes.

"I wanted to thank you for helping the witch, and this was the only thing on me so…thank you." She smiled shyly, handing me the glowing purple mushroom. I accepted it with shaking hands. Did she know the value of this mushroom? I could study it and use it in so many spells! I could-…oh wait, she was still standing there.

I kept the mushroom in my coat pocket and smiled back to her slightly.

"Th-thank you…" I said and walked away, smiling to myself in secret the second I turned my back to her.

Is it good? I'm worried that Wizard might be OOC. Advice is greatly welcomed. Please review! (:
