Chapter 7
Saffron was laying in her fluffy bed and planned to stay there for the entire day. She snuggled deeper into the duvet, ignoring the calling birds and the nattering townspeople. After coming home at nightfall, reporting to the King, delivering the goods and returning home, the girl want nothing more than laying in her own bed.
Unfortunately for her, her bedroom door creaked open and soft footsteps made their way to her bed. Then, a soft hand gently shook her awake and a familiar voice said, "Saffron? I-It's time to get up."
The brown girl groaned. It was Yuki holding a small bunch of unopened envelopes. That means Pam wasn't lying when she was taking her in too. Saffron turned to her new roommate and asked what she wanted.
"Well," Yuki replied, "I came to delivery today's mail, Flutter wants to go back to Port Puerto to see how Andy and Olivia are doing and a dark fur cat wanted to speak with her.
'Jinx?' Saffron thought and got up out of bed, 'Alright…let's see what she wants…'
"WHAAAAT!?" Hazel screeched with Saffron, Yuki and Jinx covered their ears.
After visiting Olivia and Andy and ensuring that everything was fine and dandy, Saffron went to Jinx to what she wanted. The cat told them that Yuki put in a good word for her and the cat has seen it for herself so there's nothing else to teach her. She also told them that the other place she can try is Esmeralda's Academy of Magic in Al Maajik. That was made Hazel screech.
"Why do you get to go to Al Maajik and I don't?" the pink haired girl whined.
Saffron raised an eyebrow, asking what was so great about Al Maajik. Hazel gasped in shock. She told them that every magician has heard of Al Maajik at least once. It is a sand-town that centres on magic. There's a magic town, a magic academy and it even has the biggest library of Reveria: Al Maajik's Library of Magic.
As Hazel rambled on about how great Al Maajik is, her little brother- Nox- asked Saffron, "I've been wondering, do you have any siblings? Because from what you were telling Hazel, they must've treated you like trash."
Jinx scolded her pupil for such an insensitive question but Saffron said it was okay and as far as siblings go, hers are pretty standard. She's the third oldest of six kids and they all have the same mother. Four of them are her half siblings as they has different fathers and one of them is born from her father.
Her elder brother and sister, James and Samantha were born in Nubian's first relationship with another god (arranged by her mother). James is the oldest and the tallest out of the six. He always had a serious expression and always exceeds people's expectations. However, more often than not, James likes to relax and spend some time with his siblings.
Samantha is the motherly kind of sister and also the teacher kind. She would teach Saffron and her other sister every lesson there is about etiquette and being ladylike and she will keep repeating those lessons until they mastered it. Saffron shuddered at the memory, especially ballroom dancing and talking to males.
Robin is the four oldest in the group and is slightly taller than Saffron (much to her annoyance). Like her, he took most of his generics from his father and is pretty laid back. He sometimes acts like the peacemaker but if something does not go his way, he will unleash his rage.
The youngest siblings are twins Daisy and Daniel. She doesn't know all the details about them but apparently they were born while her mother was missing, meaning that she was still alive when Saffron was living with her father.
Nox looked confused and asked her how does she know all this if she doesn't have all her memories which the girl explained that she met up with her siblings two years ago and she remembered them. James was the one who told her about the twins. However, he was reluctant on talking about Robin which was weird to her since James promised to tell her everything.
"Oh gosh!" Hazel exclaimed and took Saffron's into hers, "You simply must take me with you. Say it is so!"
Her friend laughed nervously and apologised. She explained that she would most likely go to Al Maajik on the King's request. Furthermore, without the king's letter, she can't go investigate this "dark sultan" business was talking about.
"You may need back-up!" Hazel argued.
"That may be so but I cannot risk putting you in danger. You need to look after your brother, I'm pretty sure that's what Colin wants as well."
The magician was about to go against that statement but realised it's true. Her older brother, left them a year ago and hasn't come back since. Since then, Nox has been training hard so he can find his brother and help him any way he can.
"I guess you're right," she said dejectedly.
Saffron smiled and ruffled Hazel's hair, promising that once the whole thing is done, she will take Hazel to Al Maajik.
Short chapter, I know but I can't think of anything else right now.
Stay tune for Chapter 8!
