This chapter is in Erica Bluestone's point of view, since Alexandra isn't present for Firecat Alley. P.S. Have you ever read Abracadoodle? It's HILARIOUS! I haven't played Firecat Alley in forever, so I probably have all the details wrong. I"m using a google images map and wizard101 wiki for most of my information.

I led my friends towards Firecat Alley.
" How will we know if Lenora or Nightshade or Moira is there?" Ashley asked.

" I don't know. I guess we should just ask around." I responded, looking sideways at the other Thaumaturge. "Evan, use your Necromancy deck. Pyromancy won't be very helpful on Firecat Alley."

" I'll do that." I glanced down at the Frostwood Sword I carried. I hadn't used it in nearly a year due to all my book-studying. I hoped I hadn't forgotten how to duel. To keep focused on important things, I thought about which pet I should bring into battle. I had gotten Snowstorm most recently, only two weeks ago, in fact. However, I had taken a temporary break from studying and had trained him to Epic. Icicle and Frost had been Epic for a few months already. Icicle, my snow serpent, was out. His card was frost snake, which did 80 Ice damage and +30% damage to my next Ice spell. It was helpful, but I wanted the strongest card I had. I debated between Ancient Wyvern and Colossus. Ancient Wyvern did 80 Ice damage at first, and then did 600 Ice damage over three rounds. Colossus did 600 to 680 Ice damage. Both spells were six pips and did the same amount of damage. They were also the same accuracy, 80%. I decided on Frost, since he was my older pet and his spell fizzled less. Evan had equipped his jade oni, which was his only non-fire pet, and he was carrying his Necromancy deck. Heather had her Orthrus pet, Hestia.

" Who should we talk to first?" The Conjurer asked softly.

" Gretta Darkkettle. She knows EVERYTHING that's going on in Firecat Alley." Evan immediately responded.

" She's that creepy old alchemist, right?"

" Yep." We headed towards Gretta's house. Inside, the old woman dressed in black was sitting in a chair, staring at a book in her hands. She looked up when we entered.

" Well, if it isn't Evan Starblade. Who are your friends?"

" Hello, Gretta. This is Erica Bluestone, Ashley Spellsword, and Heather Rosegem. Have you seen a dark sprite, a wraith, or an albino Necromancer running around anywhere?"

" I don't believe so, sorry. Why?"

" The sprite and wraith are pets of my friend's that have been kidnapped, and the Necromancer is the one responsible for turning them evil. We need to track down the three of them before they can do any damage to Wizard City."

" Go talk to Private Quinn. He's not far from here. I don't leave this house much, but he should know something."

" Okay. Thank you, Gretta."

" Any time, Evan." The four of us departed for Private Quinn's post near the Firecat Statue. The thing was almost twenty feet tall and carved entirely from stone. It was an almost perfect image of a firecat, and it was the number one tourist attraction on the street. I had only seen it once before. Near the statue stood a uniformed guard: Private Quinn.

" Hello, there, young wizards! Could you give me a hand?" He called to us.

" What do you need?"

" I am very good friends with the Fire Elves, and they visit me every day. However, today I haven't seen a single elf. I'm starting to get a little nervous. Could you go see if they're okay?"

" Sure. No problem. Let's go, guys." We headed towards the main part of the street. The private was worried with good reason. There were four Fire Elves attacking a girl about 14. She looked like a Thaumaturge, from the color of her robes, and judging on the style I guessed that she was adept.

" Come on. We should help her. Evan, stay on the sidelines." I called over my shoulder, running towards the battle.

" Thanks. These Fire Elves are a lot tougher than I remember." The girl said as I joined the battle.

" I think it's got something to do with a problem my friends and I are investigating." I replied, unsheathing my sword and drawing seven cards. I chose to play blizzard, and I watched as the girl played an evil snowman.

" I'm Madison Iceflower, by the way. Level 24 Thaumaturge."

" I'm Erica Bluestone, level 60 Ice. These are my friends Ashley and Heather, both level 60. Ashley's Ice and Heather is Myth. The boy standing on the sidewalk is Evan Starblade, level 60 Pyromancer."

" Wow. You're Legendaries?"

" Yep." We stopped talking as Heather played cyclops and Ashley played storm shark. Madison hadn't been kidding when she said that the Fire Elves were more powerful than usual. They had become cheaters. The first one played IFREET, of all spells! A LEGENDARY RANK EIGHT PIP SPELL! From a FIRE ELF! I was shocked. Madison's health was down to 3/4's of the way full, and there were still three more Fire Elves.

" It's got to be one of the pets or Moira." Heather said quietly.

" No kidding." I replied, wincing as the second elf played a phoenix on me. I couldn't resist it much, being an Ice wizard. The third elf played a meteor strike, and the fourth passed.

" We could use Destiny right now." Ashley said.

" She's busy now. We'll have to pull an Alexandra."

" What's that mean?" Madison asked.

" Alexandra Firesong, one of our friends, is a Legendary Necromancer who's strategy is to hit her enemies as hard as she can and ignore all healing spells, shields, blades, everything. She uses all the pips she has at one time to try and knock out her enemies. If we do the same, we can take out the Fire Elves quickly. We should all target the first elf, and once he's dead, the next, and so on. If you have a spell to target all of them, use it."

" Got it." I gained a power pip and used it to cast snow serpent. Madison cast a thunder snake with her normal pip, Ashley crossed her fingers and cast insane bolt. It could do either 1,000 damage to the enemy, or it could do 10,000 damage to her, meaning we would have an unconscious friend. Luckily, it killed the Fire Elf rather than her. Heather's spell was passed, and we waited for the opposing side's attacks. Two fire dragons and a meteor strike later, we were still alive. Pretty banged up, but alive. Madison and I both passed, Ashley played a snow serpent, and Heather played humongofrog, killing the second and third elf. The fourth elf passed. " Don't kill him, just make him lose. I need to talk to him." I instructed Madison. She nodded and played frost beetle. The elf was quickly knocked unconscious, and when the dueling circle disappeared, I dragged him to the sidewalk. He woke with a blast of frozen air to the face.

" EEK!" The Fire Elf screeched when he saw that he was surrounded.

" You are going to talk, elf. Who gave you the power to cheat, and who gave you that much help?"

" L-lady Lenora!" He squeaked.

" What did she look like?"

" Dark sprite! Promised that me and my people would be safe if we helped her!"

" She was lying. Her plan was to kill you off when you were no longer needed. Go explain that to the other Fire Elves, and warn them that if they don't stop attacking people, a group of Legendaries will hunt them down and put a stop to their behavior. Am I very clear?"

" Yes, miss! I will do that immediately!"

" Good." I released him, and he ran.

" So . . . Lenora is here, then?"

" It seems like it. Madison, you should return to the Commons. It isn't safe here any longer. Once we hunt down Lenora, Nightshade, and Moira Moonchaser, this place should be safer again."

" Okay. I'll warn the other wizards not to come here. Thanks for the help."

" No problem. See you around."

" Bye." The Thaumaturge disappeared in a cloud of holographic snowflakes.

" We need to tell Alexandra that Lenora is here. She will probably want to help fight her. Maybe this time, she can convince her to return to our side." Heather suggested quietly. I nodded and whispered the news to the Necromancer.

" I will be there as soon as possible." She replied.

" She's coming." I informed my friends.

" Wait . . . the prince cannot be reached by that Fire Elf. We will have to deliver the message ourselves." Evan told me.

" The prince?"

" Prince Alicane Swiftarrow. He is inside Globe Theater, and that Fire Elf isn't going to be let in. I doubt he'll even try to gain entry."

" Oh, so in other words, we have to go fight the prince."

" Exactly. Let's go." We ran towards the theater. Inside the Globe Theater, the prince of the Fire Elves stood on a stage, surrounded by three magma men.

" We're dead."

" No, we're Legendaries. Three magma men and a stuck-up Fire Elf prince can't stop us. Come on, scaredy cat." I used one of my potions and entered the dueling circle.

" Prince Swiftarrow, if you don't stop attacking people, you will wish you hadn't crossed us."

" No one can defeat me with Lady Lenora's power! Prepare to die!" I drew seven cards and inspected the health circles of my opponents. The prince had about 6,000 health, and the magma men had around 2,000.

" This is nuts!" I muttered to myself. I had snow angel in my deck, an eight pip, level 60 Ice spell that did 760 Ice damage over time and taunted all enemies. I also had two power pips, meaning I needed four more pips to cast the snow angel. I decided to save for it and cast a few blades and traps. I started with an ice blade on myself. "Snow angel in a few turns!" I announced.

" I've got colossus." Ashley told me.

" Heather, Evan? Any good spells?"

" I've got scarecrow."

" And I have orthrus."

" Good. Save your pips and cast blades and traps and things of that nature on the prince. We take him out first. Evan, cast traps on the magma men, too, if you have enough pips and enough time."

" I think I do." He said, inspecting his seven cards. Ashley played an ice blade, Heather cast a myth blade, and Evan cast a death blade. The prince played meteor strike, and the magma men each played inferno kraken. I gained another power pip.

" Either next turn or two turns from now."

" I have enough this turn. Do you have an ice trap for him?"

" Yep." I played the ice trap, and Ashley played her colossus. Heather played a myth trap. Evan's jade oni played another myth trap, and Evan played a death trap. The next turn, I had my last power pip. I cast the snow angel. Ashley passed, Heather played Orthrus, and Evan played his scarecrow. A few rounds later, the prince and his three magma men were unconscious on the ground, and we were mostly alive still.

" How are you guys doing?" Alexandra whispered.

" We just beat Prince Alicane Swiftarrow. He and his three magma men were cheaters, and they half killed us. How about you guys?"

" General Akilles was a pushover."

" Lucky you. We're going to question the prince about Lenora's whereabouts, and then we'll meet you somewhere and go fight her."

" Sounds good, I guess."
The prince quickly told us where Lenora was hiding: inside the tower of a person called "Bastilla Gravewynd." The tower was apparently very close by. I whispered the location to Alexandra, who identified Bastilla as a banshee with a Fire Elf as a helper. There would most likely be three there, and after defeating Bastilla, we would find Lenora one floor above.

" Alexandra, stay on the side this time. She's death, so she won't be easy for you to defeat. Destiny, Ashley, Brooke and I will fight her."

" Got it. Just as long as I help to stop Lenora."

" That's fine." Alexandra, Brooke, Destiny and Donna met us outside Bastilla's tower.

" Are you guys ready?" The Necromancer asked.

" As ready as we will be. Come on. We've got a fairy to find."

" Dark sprite."

" Close enough."

This chapter stank. I know it stank. I was rushing through it because a) I was bored of writing Fire Elf vs. Erica, Ashley, Evan and Heather scenes, b) I have Writer's Block, and c) because I prefer writing from Alexandra's P.O.V. and writing as Erica is hard, for some bizarre, unknown reason. This might be my last update for a few weeks. I'm going to camp on the third of July. In addition, I am fully aware of the fact that I did not follow the storyline of Firecat Alley at ALL. My reason is the same as the last chapter. Thanks to 105maddie105 for submitting Madison Iceflower. There are two more O.C.'s I have yet to put into my story. I'm just waiting for the right spot to put them in, but they will join the story at some part. I think that's it. Navaer. (Sindarin for "Farewell")
