Hey guys thank you all so much for your patience with this story. It has been so hectic here. I just about moved house and I still aint sorted lol. I hope this chap will help.
Just to let you know not many chapters left for this story. It was only supposed to be a short one anyway.
Ali glared at gale as he sat across from her. Gale just smiled leering at her. Ali wanted to hurl, he was making her feel so grossed out. She tried her bindings again, but they hadn't changed still as tight as possible.
"What do you want with me Gale?" she asked after failing again to break free. He shrugged his shoulders and continued leering at her. She was starting to get annoyed.
"Oh come on Ali, loosen up please" he said as he moved his chair closer to hers. She tried moving her chair backwards but it was a little awkward to do. Gale put his hands on her shoulders and looked into her eyes.
"Ali, Ali, Ali" he started "it has been so long since we have seen each other and I get attitude from you?" He sounded like he was telling off a child.
"Oh you haven't seen attitude yet" she warned as she tried to lean away from him. Gale laughed "that's funny Ali I almost believed it".
Ali sighed "look! Gale I have no idea why you are here, or even why you would think I would want to see you again after what you pulled" she said as civilly as she could.
Gale looked mad "what I pulled?" he demanded "I only tried to loosen you up. I tried to make you more fun that was all". Ali stared gobsmacked "seriously? Are you really serious right now?" she asked.
Gale nodded innocently. "You drugged my drink!" she yelled. "It wasn't to get me to loosen up, or to be more fun. You drugged my drink so that I wouldn't resist you when you tried it on. So I wouldn't fight back as you raped me!"
Clap, clap, and clap.
Gale turned around looking puzzled. Ali looked in hope before the feeling crashed when she saw who it was.
"Young man it is a pleasure to meet you" Mordred came up and clasped Gale on the shoulders. "I have been unable to acquire Ali for some time. The little pest has always slipped through my fingers and now she is here all wrapped up for me like a present".
"Dude who the hell are you?" asked a puzzled Gale. "Gale, though I really do want you to leave. I am actually saying this to save your life, leave now!" Gale just looked even more puzzled.
Mordred smiled at her then looked back to Gale. "Yes young man that would be for the best, Ali and I have some things to discuss" he said. Before Gale could protest Mordred used his magic and cast a forgetting spell. Gale stared blankly and then slowly walked away.
'Well at least I don't have to worry about him anymore' Ali thought with a sigh. "Now what to do with you my bounded foe?" said Mordred as he smiled at her. Ali rolled her eyes "Could you sound less like you were from the past please?" she mocked.
Meanwhile Gale had made it outside and was walking down the street when Marco, Will and Miles came running up.
Marco grabbed him demanding to know where Ali was. "Marco look" demanded Miles. All three looked at the distant look on Gale's face. "Someone has done a spell on him he's no use" he stated.
Will stepped forward "hey man which way did you come from?" he asked. Gale didn't answer he just turned and pointed to the school gym. All three set off again.
They reached the gym and burst through the door to find Ali bound to a chair with her head slumped forward. Mordred was stood behind her with a smirk on his face.
"Your king is dead" he yelled victoriously before disappearing. Marco fell to the floor, he couldn't breathe. Will was frozen to the spot whilst Miles ran to her.
Marco felt a strange chill go through him sucking even more air from him. Miles checked her over looking for any sign of life.
There was none he fell down at her feet and cried. None of them could understand they had failed.
Will also felt the same chill as Marco did and it shook him up enough to run to Ali crying. Not long after that Miles felt the chill then a vision hit him.
After the vision finished he dried his tears and stood up. He grasped his pen and made it into the staff. The head glowed and then Miles closed his eyes.
"Ali?" he said as he opened his eyes. He found himself in a mist filled room he couldn't see any doors, windows or walls.
"Hello Miles" came her voice from the mist. Miles searched around for her. She appeared infront of him in a cloud of smoke. "Ali?" he asked she smiled sadly and nodded.
He rushed to embrace her but he just fell through her. "I'm sorry Miles" she said. Miles started crying "no I'm the one that is sorry Ali. We were too late".
Ali shook her head "no Miles please don't blame yourself. Make sure Will and Marco don't either ok".
"How can we not Ali? We knew about the threat we weren't more careful" Miles wanted to hug her, feel her something to help.
"Miles I'm not dead!" she said strongly. "I know right now it looks like I am but I'm not I'm still connected to my body I can feel Will with his head on my legs".
"There was someone here before it was the lady of the lake or well this time it would be lady of the mist" she chuckled to herself.
"Mordred thinks he has killed me but all he has done is fulfil a prophecy. He has sent my spirit here. There is something here I have to do and then I will come back." Ali sounded so sure of herself.
Miles shook his head "but Ali how long will that be what do we tell your parents and school?" he asked. Ali looked puzzled before looking around for help.
"You will return to your life within the day" came the most beautiful voice Miles had ever heard. Ali smiled and turned back round to him "there you go now go back and stop them from hurting especially Marco".
Ali disappeared infront of him and with one last sigh Miles closed his eyes.
He opened them again to find Will exactly where Ali had said he was. Marco was still knelt on the floor clutching his chest.
"Marco, Will listen to me" he said but neither could hear him. Miles raised his staff and brought it down with a force. A great booming sound was heard in the hall. It caused Marco and Will to look up sharply at Miles.
"She's not dead" he said. "Come on man yes she is look at her" said Will in a broken voice. "That's just it, I had a vision I think just without the pain it was Ali" he sounded so excited.
"She is in some kind of limbo the lady of the lake was there. She said that Ali had something to do there and then she would come back to us within the day".
Marco slowly regained his breathing enough to walk over to Miles, even Will stood up as well.
"We will have to take her somewhere safe and then tell her parents she is sleeping at mine and I'll say I am sleeping at hers" explained Miles. Marco and Will nodded still a little confused.
"We can go to mine mums working the night shift tonight so she will be gone now" offer Marco.
They all nodded and then Marco carefully untied her and lifted her up. They made it look like she was just sleeping on him just in case they were spotted by anyone.
They made it back to Marco's without incident and he gently laid her on his bed. "Now what?" asked Will? Miles sighed "now we wait".
What do you think let me know.
