The next day Flora knocked on Faragonda's door. "Come in." Flora opened the door and walked in. "Ah… Flora… Ready for your punishment?"

"Do I have a choice?" Flora grinned at her smiling Headmistress.

"Not really, but I think you will like it. For potions I need Genase. And you may pick them." Instead of being happy Flora was shocked. "You can't mean that! Genase is a terrible plant!" Faragonda smiled. "It still has to be a punishment."


Flora walked next to Faragonda. Her hands were slightly swollen as were her feet. And she was very happy when Faragonda suggested that they would take a break. "We only need a few more. Here…" She passed Flora a little pot with a orange cream. "It will make the swell less." Thankfully Flora smeared it out over her swollen limps.

"Miss F… Can I ask you a question?" Faragonda looked surprised. Then she smiled.

"Of course you can and while we are out here; call me Faragonda."

Flora nodded. "How did you meet Aileh and Din? If I understood it right in the lessons, they came out of there Dimension AFTER the lock-away."

"They did, but it's quite long story… You know what happens when some one forces a portal?" After Flora had nodded, she continued. "They did… Din didn't really found a opening, but only a weaker place that could be broken open, something they did. The explosion of power hit me, because I was walking nearby the place they opened it and I got unconscious. They found me and decided they would take care of me. Especially because Din losed his heart the first moment he saw me." A small blush appeared on Faragonda's face.

"And you fell in love with him." Finished Flora. Faragonda nodded.


"That's interresting. We take both." Charis and some of her warriors were in the bushes nearby the place where Faragonda and Flora sad. She gestured the half of her warriors to get to the other site of them. When they were all in position she opened the attack. She grabbed the old woman from behind and closed her claw around her mouth. The others took the girl, but she managed to scream. "Shit. Make them unconscious and then take them back to our camp."


On Alfea they heard the scream of Flora.
