Hey Guys! Sorry for the wait! I was completely distracted with the whole 'Lost My Document' Fiasco that I'm not going to explain to you all. Anyway, keep reading…PLEASE!
Acquirement
Bernkastel again sat in her cold chair, pondering the human world and beliefs. These humans are astounding... She thought. I was once one of them but no longer. I will destroy anyone who interrupts my happiness. Like my master said, bringing death to them will free them from the other witches' obsessive chain.Bernkastel continued to read the bible, she was given by her master. The scriptures were written in an unimaginably mystifying manor. How did the author expect the average human to understand this? Humans are nothing but average. Her subconscious hisses at her. She wanted to push these spiteful thoughts from herself through distraction. It's time that she met Lilith. The name sparked interest in Bernkastel. The woman who was Adam's supposed first wife. She left him, and Eve in her footsteps. Bernkastel wondered if Lilith was at all attractive. Maybe that was her calling as a witch.
"Lilith..." Bernkastel said aloud.
"You called me?" Replied a woman next to her. "Are you the one Featherine has sent to me?"
"I would assume so." Bernkastel's voice was cold and steely. "What do you have to offer me? Hm?"
"You have a power within you that can defy...maybe even your master. Are you prepared to unlock your talents?" Lilith was extremely bemused. She continued to hold her composure, giggles erratically escaping from her clenched teeth.
Aside from Lilith's behavior, she was also very beautiful. She had long gorgeous hair that contained mostly brown colors with strands of orange and dark red. She was tall and wore a skin tone jump suit that was tight against her body, divulging her bodily curves. Her eyes were twinkling with opportunity and angst. She was excited to teach her first student.
"Where do we begin?" asked Bernkastel. "By the way, my name is Bernkastel. I want you to call me by that."
"And what else would I call you by?" Lilith teased. "Surely that name is far to long. How about Bern? It's shorter and-"
"Masculine. If you hadn't noticed, I'm a female."
"It's high fashion and epic." Lilith chided Bernkastel. "Anyway, come!" A table had appeared in front of Bernkastel's chair. "Sit. We're going to play a game called '21'. You've heard of it surely?"
"Yes." Bern responded far too quickly. "Why are we playing such a foolish game? You're supposed to teach me how to use my magic."
"Fine!" She is exasperated. "What do you already know how to do?" Bernkastel waved her hand in the air as to gesture to her surroundings. "Would that be making a chair appear and teleporting yourself?"
"That's about it..."
"We'll have to start with basic levitation. You ready?"
"As I'll ever be."
They started out with a can. The idea was to levitate it and then send it flying across the room. Lilith would open a portal and ask Bernkastel to send it through the portal. Her powers were slightly limited because she had borrowed this power from a demon she knew. Bernkastel was stunned when Lilith began to move the portals, making Bern have to use more effort. The portals began to move to fast that Bernkastel stopped levitating the can. Beam of light shot from Bernkastel's hands and destroyed the portal. It bounced around the room for moments and then stopped. Lilith stared in admiration; Bernkastel was overall stunned. She held her hand to her stomach and then let it fall.
"Great!" Commented Lilith. "Now it's time we work with elemental magic." They were transported to a rainforest type area. It was twilight. The sun had already fallen, but the moon had illuminated everything magnificently, leaving Bernkastel in idle wonder. Beautiful She thought. She stared at the pond of water next them that shimmered with the ice blue and emerald green rocks and stones beneath it. There also were plants that had purple tints. The moonlight reflected crystalline dust from those plants, making them shine. A fire flickered in an empty grounding near the pond. The same green rocks that were flashing colors in the pond also circled the flame. Perpendicular to the flame, a large accumulation of stones were piled against what Bernkastel thought could've been a cave. Out of the corner of her eye, Bernkastel spots Featherine's violet eyes burning through the foliage and staring directly through her. Featherine smiles at her and stalks towards Bernkastel.
"Well, Lilith! You've done an amazing job. Most people don't acquire these skills so early. I'm impressed." said Featherine.
"Bern has grown quite well. It's amazing what she can do...subconsciously..." Lilith chided.
"Bern? That's a cute nickname, don't you think?"
"I didn't really choose it..." Replied Bern. "It's not completely bothersome."
"Good. Now let me examine what you've done."
"Well, first you need to pick an element," says Lilith. "Then you need to build your strength and manipulate it. I suggest something easy like the winds or water?"
Bernkastel stalks over to the cave-like formation and touched one of the moss covered rocks.
"Don't you think that's a little too advanced?" Asked Lilith. "Really... we don't need you hurting yourself." Bernkastel levitated the boulders with ease. She had three of them around her, creating a triangle. "That's amazing. I guess that I've taught you well?"
"I don't really care." Said Bernkastel blankly. She seemed almost uninterested in the words Lilith spoke. Lilith was almost non-existent.
"Well. I guess now is a good time to tell you that you're doing it wrong."
"Hm?" One of the boulders fall. "How so?"
"The object is to produce the element that you see." Interjects, Featherine. "We want you to look at the element, and create a manifestation from yourself."
"Hm..." Bern drops the remaining two boulders. "Well? I guess I'll start with water." She waves her hand in the air and water begins to follow the path that her hands create. "Isn't that a wonderful interpretation, don't you think?"
"I'd say." says Lilith. "Pulling moisture from the atmosphere is extremely resourceful."
"Do I really need to be resourceful? This will not help me free anyone." Bernkastel places her fist in the air, perpendicular from peripheral vision. Stones began to lift from the earth and create a figure eight around her clenched fingers. Her hand moved in front of her, and then the stones shot forward, one of them passing through Featherine's hair. Bernkastel stood still and the winds began to move rapidly as if they were standing in the eye of a tornado. The pond water rose into an aquatic sphere above her and the flame began to burn uncontrollably. The forest caught on fire and it began to rain. Lilith looked around in wonder. She had never known that a burning forest could be just as beautiful as an unlit one. A crackle of flames appeared within the aquatic sphere and illuminated the clearing the three stood in.
"Wow!" said Lilith. "I'm extremely pleased!" The magic faded and they were back into the cold room where Bern resided. Bernkastel stared down at herself. Blood began to ooze from her core. Featherine Beamed at Lilith.
"You've really screwed up now!" yelled Featherine.
