Chapter Six
David stared at Daphne in absolute shock. She was the reason why the Time Dragon was here, and the reason why Oz was going to be destroyed. That had to be wrong. The young witch had no control of her magic, but she was the kindest and most caring person he had ever met. There was no way she would destroy Oz. That was impossible because she loved her country and the people in it. He took a deep breath. "What do you mean you are going to destroy Oz?" He asked.
The blonde haired woman let out a sigh. "When I was born, the Time Dragon made a prophecy about me destroying Oz. There is nothing I can do to stop it wither. You know every prophecy that that thing makes comes true," she said in a half aggravated whispered as tears began to fill her eyes. "I was so scared he was going to tell all the Animals that I lost control of my magic again!"
David wrapped his arms around the future ruler of Oz and pulled her into a hug. "It's going to be all right," he whispered in her ear.
Daphne pulled away from him. She was about to argue with him, but her male friend put his finger over here mouth before she had a chance to speak. Brown eyes met green eyes. They stared at each other. David sat up straighter. "Now you listen to me. I may not know everything in life, but one of the things that I know is that we control what we do. No one else does, despite what the Dragon said."
"What are you doing?" Leigh whispered to Kat.
The Tigress silenced her cousin immediately. She pointed to the two humans that were speaking to each other. The two Animals were hiding behind a bush- watching David and Daphne.
"It is not nice to spy," Leigh whispered to her.
"I am not spying. I am watching them to see if they will admit if that they like each other," Kat said.
Leigh shook her head and rolled her eyes. "Well, let's keep watching this relationship develop shall we?" She asked as a smile crept upon her face.
After they talked for a few minutes, David and Daphne headed back to the Animal village. They held each other's hands as they walked. They both blushed but they did not let go of each other.
Kat and Leigh grinned as they saw their friends holding hands. Finally their friends were starting to get together. They were slowly getting together though. Both of the Animals crossed their paws. They were both hoping that they would become boyfriend and girlfriend soon. Perhaps they would start dating after they saved Glinda.
Glinda let out another scream as Morrible cast a spell on her. Tears filled her bright blue eyes and her entire body shook. The spell was extremely painful. It felt as if the insides of her body were on fire and that she was being cut slowly by knives.
"Where is the Grimmerie?" The old witch asked.
The blonde haired woman let out a gasp of air. Despite the pain she felt , she said nothing.
Madame Morrible just glared at the woman. She turned to the guards. "Take her away," she commanded.
The guards gave each other a look of despair. None of the men wanted to obey the woman, but sadly they had no choice. Each man just frowned.
Brrr smiled as he saw Daphne and David coming back the Animal village. They made him think of him and his wife when they were young. His grin widened as he saw Kat and Leigh following them from behind.
Once all four of them reached the village, he made an announcement that all of the Animals would help them rescue Glinda and Daphne's father.
