VampGirl: Ummmmmmmm..........Stop eating sugar cookies. You are wayyyyy too hyper.
CJ: Yeash. I thought I was bad. Hey Fred, what's the song of the day?
Fred: Can you feel that?.........Oh shit.
CJ: What the-?
VampGirl: Shut up!
Fred: It seems what is left of my human side, is slowly changing..in me. WILL YOU GIVE IT TO ME?
CJ: Fred is scaring me...
VampGirl: It is Down With The Sickness by Disturbed.
Fred: There is no turning back now, you've woken up the demons in me!
me: I claim not that song or AWOM. Hehehehehehehehe. Awom. Sounds like a drug.
VampGirl: Ooooooookkkkkkkkk O-O
SAYING OF THE DAY: I'm trying to see things from your point of view, but I can't stick my head that far up my ass
Her spider legs clicked against the stone floor. At her wrist, what was once the dragon stone, pulsed with dark orange light. The Spider Witch turned. From her stomach up, she looked human. Long, stringy black hair hung around her face.
Instead of human legs, the witch's lower body was the abdomen of a spider. Eight hairy legs supported the demented magic user. She was the picture of a child's worst nightmare.
A thunder-like roaring rumbled through the Spider Witch's lair. The Drake waddled into the room. His scales were a muddy brown color. His eyes were a diluted yellow. The dragon sized around a big elephant and then half of another one.
"What do you want, Drake?" the witch growled.
"Everything you wished is ready. You can open it very soon. You only need one thing. The-"
"Let me guess. The magic of a pure mage. That is what I wished would not come up. Oh well. I know who to pick. It is as simple as 1-2-3." the Spider Witch laughed.

"A little bit more and we have a rainbow flower. If only they could return magic to Earth. Then I wouldn't stop growing them." Ari sighed, wistfully. She held out a rainbow flower, shimmering with silver, gold, red, blue, and too many other colors to keep track of. Rainbow seeds decorated the front of her black shirt.
'And if only the witch didn't control the magic web. You need to stop with the 'If only'. You just get everyone depressed' Frost growled playfully. She shook her coat clean of the rainbow magic. Her coat still gleamed with white and blues. Her ice blue eyes looked at her packmate levelly.
"Yeah yeah. Whatever you say Miss 'If-I-don't-have-too-much-blood-on-me-then-I-am-clean." Ari laughed, earning a dirty look from the mistwolf.
'Come on. Let's run.' the white wolf said, snapping her jaws. ---
"Hey! Windy! Get off the table!" Z exclaimed. The golden griffin looked at his human friend, seeing if the boy was serious. Brown eyes glared at emerald. With a squawk, the winged creature leapt from the table top.
'You'll learn. I used to get nailed for even looking at the table' Casa said, purring as Kayla scratched her back. The black cat flicked her long tail, elegantly, showing her enjoyment of being patted.
"Yep. And you didn't learn until you got your tail set on fire. Which I am still sorry about." Kayla said, laughing, her eyes bright.
'I'm sure. That really hurt, you know. I still have a bald spot' Casa growled, looking at the furless tip of her tail.
"Aww. It gives you character. Plus a perfect opportunity for blackmail!" the blonde girl giggled.
"How did we get on to the topic of blackmail?" Oz asked. The elf sat at the table, munching on cereal, his legs swinging. A cross between a serpent dragon and a dog curled underneath his feet. Mandius lifted his head at his friend remark and barked in reply.
'Cloud Boy, get your head out of the clouds!' the little creature remarked, using his favorite name for Oz.
"Hey! So what other names have you though up for me? Air Head? Puff the magic elf? Tornado breath, though that isn't so bad-"
'Stop thinking. You'll hurt your brain and we don't want Emma to have to cool you down.' the dragon laughed.
"What?" the healer said, coming out of her daze. She shook her red-haired head, clearing her mind. Diamond gazed at her bonded mage.
'I think Emma is more of an air head than Oz.' the fox laughed. Mostly silver, the fairy creature had ebony eyes that slited in her narrow face. Her paws were gold in comparison to the rest of her soft fur. Standing at little over three feet, the fox was all together sweet and adventuresome looking.
"I resent that! I was thinking anyways. Why are we hiding from the witch?" Emma asked.
"Because you have no chance of beating her." a voice said from behind them. Ari emerged from her room, clothed in her fighting outfit. Fairly loose black tank top, cutoff capris and leather "ninja" shoes.
"Talk about the bearer of bad news. Can't you say anything happy?" Kayla asked.
"I don't do perky." was the blunt reply as the blue haired speaker left the house, followed by the white mistwolf.
"Damn that girl needs to loosen up! I never asked if she was perky, just happy." Kayla muttered, shaking her blonde head.

"The key to opening my portal approaches. Drake, prepare to fight. Do not kill her. I need her magic." the Spider Witch ordered.
"Yes, Master. What about the wolf?"
"Kill it. I care not about it. Only it's mage."
Drake crouched and roared, spewing orange/black fire across the parched Earth. The eerie howl of two pakmates called to the two evil beings, challenging them.
"Get ready." the Spider Witch hissed, her heart beating in excitement. Soon, very soon. She would have the key to ruling the web without the hassle of the mages.
Snarling, girl and wolf skidded to a stop in front of their opponents. The wolf stone flared with silver fire. The warrior glared at the witch, hatred flowing through her veins.
"How dare you challenge us, witch. On our own territory? You will not win." Ari growled, the hair along her neck, standing up.
"I only want your magic, my little warrior." the Spider Witch cackled, "Drake, attack!"
The dragon roared and charged, swinging his thick tail and spurting fire. Ari and Frost leapt out of harms way before charging forward. The warrior snapped her wrist, creating a lasso she threw around the Drake's neck. Pulling, she began choking the dragon.
Drake screamed and pulled his head back, violently, sending the blue haired girl stumbling forward.
"Frost! Help me!" she yelped.
'Ari!' the mistwolf leapt in front of her wolf-sister, giving the warrior her magic. Her white-blue fur stood on end as she snapped at the air in frustration.
"He's absorbing my magic! I can't disconnect it! He's gonna suck me in!" Ari whispered, her voice tight from struggling.
'Not as long as I have breath in my body. Hold on. I'll distract him.' Frost said as she leapt towards the Drake. The mistwolf ran from one side of the dragon to the other, annoying the great beast. He swung his tail around and connected with Frostfire's side, sending her hurtling into the air.
"Frost! No. Please don't be dead." the warrior gasped as she, violently, ended her rope of magic. Ari ran to her wolf-sister's side, checking for extreme injuries.
'I will live. Stop the witch.' Frost murmured, weakly. Ari nodded, her eyes watering.
"It is too late my little warrior. I have the magic to open the portal. Thanks to you and your pet." the Spider Witch laughed, triumphantly. From her neck, she pulled one of the Crystals of Avalon. She drew a vertical line threw the air, creating a tear in the planes. Wind whipped from the portal.
"A portal to where?" Ari screamed over the whiplike wind.
"A portal to the past!" the witch said, her face beaming. The warrior's eyes widened as she realized what the Spider Witch's plan was.
"I won't let you! I'll stop you before you kill them! That is a promise." the mage growled. Frost was beside her. Both stood ready.
"You stand no chance against me, child." the witch said as she flicked her wrist, recalling the Drake into the dragon stone. She then jumped into the portal. Without thinking, Frost barrled forward, followed by Ari, who grabbed the wolf's thick fur. A faint whisper echoed in their heads.
One jumps, we all jump.

'Perhaps we should go home now, healer.' Stormbringer said, looking up at Emily.
"I'm not sure. I can feel something coming. Almost like-"
'Mistwolves.' Storm finished. The silver wolf's nose was in the air and the tip of her bushy tail flicked.
All of a sudden, a loud crash rumbled from behind the two. Screams of fright and alarm echoed.
Storm charged forward, a low growl rumbling in the wolf's chest. Emily quickly followed her friend. After a few minutes, the healer and the mistwolf emerged in the magic glen, where chaos rained.
A demon like creature shot blasts of murky orange fire at the animals. A blue haired girl whipped silver fire right back at the demon. At the girl's side, stood a mistwolf. A little smaller than Storm, but pure muscle and ferocious, snarling and snapping at the girl's side.
Adrine crouched in a fighting stance, chucking golden fire at the demon. Storm ran to her bonded's side, ready to fight.
Before either could challenge the spider like beast, the strange girl intercepted.
"Get out of here. She'll kill you. You are not strong enough. Run!" the girl panted, "Ready, Frost? Let's fight!"
Girl and white mistwolf charged, howling. From behind the demon, a dragon faded into the picture. It's muddy scales shining dully in the sunlight. Roaring, the dragon swung his tail at the attackers.
Where there was two figures, became mist. Behind the dragon, the mistwolf appeared, teeth bared in a challenge.
'Leave, Witch. We will beat you, no matter what you think.' the wolf said, her voice low and menacing. The witch cried out in anger. Growling, she and the dragon, vanished.
Emily, Kara, Adrine and all the animal gaped at girl and wolf. The blue haired girl ran to her animal compainion.
"Please tell me you are alright." she whispered, ignoring their audience.
'I will be fine, Ari. What about you?' the wolf asked before turning to the humans and animals who were watching them. The white wolf crouched, growling low in her throat.
"Umm. What just happened?" Kara asked, finally, eyeing the strange wolf.
"We just saved your lives. That was the Spider Witch. If any of those blasts she was producing, hit you, you wouldn't even be able to say goodbye. They were all poisined dragon fire." the girl said, her eyes watching them warily.
"You don't seem to be all good if your friend thinks we are your next opponent." Adriane stated. By her side, Storm was tense.
"Frostfire is only protecting me. She trust no one except me. We are the last with mistwolf magic to flow in our veins." the girl countered.
"What are you talking about? There about a hundred mistwolves roaming in Aldenmore. And then there is Storm." Emily said, confusion writen on her face.
'Where we are from, I am the last mistwolf. I would have died also if my packmate had not saved me." the wolf, Frostfire, said. She no longer was growling, instead, she watched Storm with interest.
"Where exactly are you from?" Ozzie asked.
"Here. Well twenty years in the future. The Spider Witch came back in time to when you were at the weakest stge in your magic. She didn't plan on me folowing. She figured that if you died then she would be free to rule the web without competition. Your children are the only things keeping her from ruling the web and Avalon. I am Ari and this is my best friend, Frost." the blue haired girl said.
"Wow. Wait a minute. Where are we?" Kara asked.
"The five great mages of this time were killed by the witch when she gained control of Avalon"

me:Well? What do you think now? If you are confused, then hopefully, the next few chapters will clear things up. And to the supid person who reviewed me saying that goblin's eyes don't change color, this is a FANFICTION! I didn't say that GOBLINS eye color changes, I said KAYLA'S eye color changed. Her GREEN EYES were what I was talking about.
VampGirl: ummmm, Shadow Fox, you are crazy. Take a chill pill.
CJ: Yeah. You don't have to be soo mean. People like you are the reason people like me need medicine.
me: Screw you. I needed to let that out of my system. I feel better now. Review, flame me. I don't care. It's gettin cold up here. Hot weather for us is 30F.
