Chapter 6: Just as Things Were Going Smoothly
As soon as she was out of sight, Adina ran down the corridors of the castle, lifting her skirts. I'll never make it in time, she thought hurriedly. Oh, that I could fly! All at once, she was off the ground, soaring through the night sky. Hey! I.........Well, Professor Boyce, another of my 'powers', I guess. This brought her back to why she'd left the Ball- a vision of the Professor dying. And he had told her that visions always came true. She'd been working with him several weeks now, and he'd predicted she'd eventually fly. Of course, probably not in the shape of a hawk, like she currently was, however.

"Allah allah/ Yeckum allah/ Allah allah/ Yeckum allah- Let your killer die this instant/ And know every bit of pain/ Let him rot and die for his deeds/ And I hope he dies insane!"
At that moment, the eagle was proudly flying back to the Goblin City to see his son, the King of the Goblins. The fool Elf dies, and I'm responsible, he laughed triumphantly. No one will ever .......... A great flash came before him, sending him down to the ground. And after that shock he knew nothing more..........at all...............
