WITCH BLADERS
CHAPTER TWO: DARK PLACES
Come on guys we got to meet Mr Dickinson at the restaurant or he'll send out a search party. Kenny moaned
Relax Chief we'll get there we're just taking a short cut. Tyson said as they turned into the alley
Some how I don't have a good feeling about this short cut remember Hong Kong? Kenny reminded him.
Please no blader is gonna come near us after all this is London everyone is nice to you here. Max boasted
I wouldn't be so sure. Came a voice in the dark
Who are you? Ray called
A boy walked out from the shadows and released his blade before they had time to blink.
Say hello to destruction. The boy said evilly
Goodbye destruction. Came another voice from the dark.
You the boy barked
Who were you expecting Chaos the Goddess herself. The voice replied
Show yourself witch. The boy yelled
As you wish. She replied suddenly a blade went whizzing out of the darkness and destroyed the boy's blade.
The boy turned into a demon like thing then burst into flames, the figure of a girl wearing a black mantle stepped out of the dark and picked up her blade.
Who are you? Ray asked
Your only hope. She replied turning away and disappearing into a near by alley
I think we better get going suggested Kai
Morning came up and London was bustling with people.
Well let's see what the papers say today. A girl said sleepily as she got up and walked to the door.
Let's see Chain mail, Jury service, aah yes the paper. She said to herself
She read through the various articles relating to the mysterious wonder woman that was saving people lately, a letter was slipped under the door.
Oh no not the Talamasca, is five hundred years up already? She said annoyed
She washed her face and glanced at herself in the mirror for a moment and sighed
Now why now my life is complicated enough without having to go to the Beymasters tournament and get myself killed. She muttered scanning her clear complexion and looking at her crystal blue eyes.
She looked at the grand building in the distance by parliament it was called the Talamasca, it was an institute for dealing with the supernatural occurrences and observing the powers of the dark, she brushed her mid-length candy pink hair then glanced at her appearance in the full-length mirror to check that she was looking smart and decent the members of the Talamasca valued a smart appearance.
She remembered the day she left her home and was sent to London she remembered the promise the members of the Talamasca made to Merlin.
The chosen ones are to be kept apart they are powerful together but they are still young, I ask that your institute watch over three of the chosen ones as we must watch over the one who has the powers of the Goddess in Avalon. Merlin asked
Of course David said almost immediately.
The Talamasca put her in a girls' school every lunchtime and evening she went to the library to be tutored by Merlin who disguised himself as a librarian Merlin and David had been like fathers to her, she was taught spells and rituals and her power over water was increasing along with her general powers.
The head member of the Talamasca looked after her and taught her a few things about Avalon and her purpose, David had told her that when five hundred years are up a chosen few are sent to Elwick to fight for their race, this included humans.
David told her about the time when human men and Wiccans lived in peace and harmony, and of Elwick a once great city a rich and colourful place the capital of the faery kingdom until Dantes came he turned the city to ruins, the faeries could do nothing, Dantes captured the twelve high elders of the Wiccans and locked them in the sea where they serve him.
Those that were chosen to fight and failed had their soul taken away by Dantes making him stronger.
David's words faded away as she stepped out onto the busy street below.
Dune it is time for you to join with the other chosen ones. One member of the Talamasca said
I understand. Dune replied
You are to be taken to Avalon along with other fighters where you will meet the members of your team, and fulfil your destiny. Another member said
The meeting wasn't very long, Dune hated the Talamasca they put her in an awful school, she wasn't allowed to have any friends so she was bullied everyday, and she became an outcast, she didn't really like being a rebel the members of the Talamasca didn't know how lonely she was, to know that you weren't like normal everyday people who just waltzed around without a care in the world was hard for her.
