Crazy trouble with love part 4
Marie and Martin
xxxxxxxxxxxx
-Torrington Academy, Martin's room-
"I'm starting to think we might need more room."
"Why bzz?" Asked Saiddy while sitting on Martin's lap.
"Because with this many people in one dorm, it's gonna start getting cramped don't ya think?"
"Not really." Christy shrugged off while Carrie was busy putting sleep sand on a dreaming Freya. "This room can still handle a few more people, but I can see what you mean. Eventually we're gonna need someplace bigger for all our stuff."
"True." Carrie said while snickering at what she was doing. 'Hope you like killer fish.'
"Then again, maybe I can talk with Mom about some space and supplies, I can get the paperwork finished and any stuff we might need." spoke Christy. "Any high tech stuff we'll have to put in the basement or at night cause the guys I have at my company tend to blab a lot."
"Really bzz?" Saiddy said while coughing up a insect.
"Yeah, but I'll need to run it by Mom first since she might be able to come up with cover ups in case someone starts asking questions."
"AHHHHH!" Screamed Freya while jumping up in fright. "Killer halibut!" 'By Odin that was fucked up!'
"Wow, someone's got fish on the brain." spoke Carrie acting innocent.
"You Nyx bitch! How dare you make me dream such a nightmare!"
"I don't know what you're talking about."
Freya growled before tackling the girl off the bed. "Then let me enlighten you!"
"Hey! Let go!"
"Ugh not again." Christy sighed rubbing her nose.
Beep beep beep.
"Hang on." Martin hit the receive icon and saw Olivia's face show up. "What's up Mom?"
"Just wanted to check up on you and your growing harem. And it seems you are in need to get some more room am I correct?"
"I was just about to call you about that." spoke Christy. "Even if Martin doesn't get anymore girls, we still need more space than this for our own stuff and space."
"Well at the moment we can't just give you a new location to sleep but I could use one of the Centers experimental Infinite Space cubes."
"Infineon huh?"
"The sum up all forty seven years of work, it distorts space and increases it."
"Is it safe bzzz?"
"If it wasn't then I wouldn't suggest it."
"Well when can we use it?"
She nodded. "But be careful, the cube itself is a natural fly magnet."
"Is it at the Center?"
"At the moment yes, but I can send someone to bring it in about….ten days from now."
"Ten days?" groaned Martin.
"It takes ten people to take it from the lab, it is the size of a building when not in its compactable form."
"So we gotta deal with this for ten more days?" spoke Christy.
"Unfortunately. But I must be off, business at the vaults." She said as the U-watch turned off.
"Just perfect." huffed Freya.
"You said it." Carrie agreed. "And I can't just sleep in one bed."
"Yet you can turn into sand bzzz."
"Oh...still it's uncomfortable when we ALL sleep in the same bed."
"No duh bzz."
"I agree." Christy said while Freya started to eat the insects that Saiddy spat out.
-Dublin, Ireland-
In a university for quantum physics, a woman was busy getting ready for her next lesson. She had scraggily curly red hair with a blue sweater vest on, brown jeans, and was currently scribbling notes down as fast as she could.
'Damn this day!' She thought while frantic. 'Why couldn't that stupid teacher just NOT talk about tachyon particles! Really WHY that subject?!' she was just about done while walking down the sidewalk before bumping into a random girl.
"Hey watch it!" The girl yelled while landing on her butt as her bag was sent flying to the ground with several items falling out. That included a dark purple book with a picture of a fairy on it.
"You watch it." frowned the redhead while the girl started picking her stuff up before the ginger noticed the book and scoffed. "What kind of book is that?"
"A book on Irish culture and folktales. Our history if you want to call it." She said grabbing the book.
"Ha! That's just nonsense and rubbish." scoffed the redhead. "All those myths are just some stories people made up to try and make things more interesting and to keep them from getting frantic considering all the fighting back in the day."
"Wow, you are stupid. I mean without these 'rubbish' then you wouldn't have a culture at all. And not ALL things can be explained by science because it is not suppose to be explained." The girl growled. "So if you keep this up then you might get cursed by the fairy folk."
"Ooooh, I'm so scared." she spoke in a fake scared tone. "What are they gonna do? Annoy me while sprinkling their oh so deadly fairy dust? Maybe next you'll say a leprechaun shows up to try and clean my shoes."
The girl glared. "Do not mock the fairy folk or anything of our ancient history you you might find yourself lost in a madness only death will release you from." She said with hate before storming off.
She rolled her eyes and walked away from the school and into town. 'All that stuff is made up and lame. If they're so real, there's be some evidence, but if she wants to delude herself be my guest.'
As she went to a coffee shop she felt a cold chill run down her spine. 'Huh? I didn't remember hearing about it getting colder.'
Just then she heard chanting in her ears in ancient Irish that started out quiet but grew louder and louder with each passing second. She covered her ears and looked around. 'Where's that coming from?'
She then ran into the bathroom and tried to use the water to block out the sound but that didn't work. 'Where is it coming from! Is someone using a speaker or something to try and freak me out?'
"Shliocht mianach, ina gceangal liom agus bheith ar cheann." spoke a voice in the ancient tongue. (Descendant of mine, bind with me and become one.)
"Who are you! Where are you?" she spoke looking around the room.
"Tá mé Solas an Domhain agus Spéartha agus beidh tú ceangal liom." the voice said while it sounded closer. (I am Light of the World and Heavens and you shall bind with me.) "Is í toil na déithe na hÉireann." (It is the will of the gods of Ireland.)
"Shut up! Show yourself!"
"Mar is mian leat." it said before a figure in dark tattered robes, with a long red sash around his body, with pale skin and glowing white eyes appeared. His long dark hair reached to his back as his long beard made him look like a imposing figure while looking the girl right in the mirror itself. (As you wish.)
"A-AHHHH!" she screamed falling on her ass and tried scrambling away from the mirror.
"Ceangal liom agus bheith ar cheann mo shliocht!" it roared before jumping out of the mirror and sped towards her at inhuman speeds. (Bind with me and become one my DESCENDANT!)
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!"
(Later)
Slowly the girl walked down the road with her eyes shadowed and her hands twitching.
"Miss?" asked a man while looking confused. "Are you ok?"
"Táim ceart go leor." (I'm fine.)
He looked at her in surprise while she kept walking with a dark grin on her face.
The girl grinned while heading to the university as she muttered to herself. She then saw the girl from before and smirked.
Said girl noticed and frowned. "What? Come to make fun of me again?"
"Leanaí de madra, tá tú thrasnaigh dom agus beidh tú ag fulaingt mo wrath." she growled. (Child of a dog, you have crossed me and you shall suffer my wrath.) she then raised her hands as tree branches appeared on the girl's skin. "Fréamhacha na talún ag fás, a thabhairt ar an cailín isteach ar an talamh agus glacadh léi mar do leanbh!" (Grow roots of the land, bring this girl into the land and accept her as your child!)
"W-WAAAHHHH!" she screamed as she saw her skin start becoming bark while she started running.
"AhahahahAHAHAHAH!" The girl laughed as the girl started to take root into the ground and become a tree. "AHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAH!"
Everyone around saw and started panicking.
"Níos mó de na betrayed, cé chomh taitneamhach." she smirked. (More of the betrayed, how enjoyable.) she then chanted again. "Ghlacadh roots shealbhú, snuff amach na cinn a wronged tú, agus iad a thabhairt go dtí an talamh." (Roots take hold, snuff out the ones that wronged you and bring them to the land.)
CRASH!
The student's screamed as giant moving tree branches crashed through the windows and floor and started to consume them as green slime covered the floor.
(A few days later)
-Torrington Academy-
"Martin?" Asked Freya while walking besides him. "How can you handle that annoying girl of yours, you know the one that I couldn't lure."
"It's best to just try and annoy her while getting use to it for a while."
She nodded. "I'll try but my honor as a Hulder clan might make things difficult." 'Like pecking her eyes out.'
"Well just try and deal with classes normal, and don't say or do anything that'll make you stand out. Last thing we want is you laying an egg." he chuckled.
"I don't lay eggs unless you want me to spread my legs to you." She deadpanned. "What bird lays eggs if it's not from mating?"
"Um….a platypus?"
"A what?"
"It's this thing that looks like a cross between a beaver and a duck."
"...huh?" 'What manner of sorcery is that?!'
"Nevermind, I'll find you some pictures online later."
"On-line? I'm lost, what are you talking about Martin?" Freya said while completely confused.
"From the internet, the world wide web, the holy place for everything you ever need."
"Um I don't know what you're talking about."
'Oh right, stuck in ice for fifty years and living on an island for most of her life.' Martin thought before the U-watch activated. "That must be Mom with the news on that cube."
"The cube will arrive today but we have an issue." Olivia said. "The next girl has arrived, but…."
"But what?"
"She is not one that Martin saw in any of his missions."
"Come on Olivia, I'm sure I spotted her somewhere. Or who knows, maybe she's a secret fan of mine." he grinned.
"No and her name is Marie Glúingel, she's about your age but she's….how should I say this...oh right. She doesn't believe in the supernatural and believes only science is the fundamental aspect of life."
"So she's not exactly a monster movie fan, right?"
"She believes anything that's supernatural are nothing more than garbage. And that's saying it mildly."
"Well can you really call it supernatural if it's real? I mean look at Freya."
"She's a stubborn one, plus she never saw anything supernatural, even if she lived in Dublin, Ireland. But perhaps you can change that Martin, oh and before I go just be careful. She just had an incident in her university and she might act oddly sometimes."
"Um, how odd?"
"Speaking old Irish and, well you'll find out." She said before the U-watch turned off.
"That tells us nothing." frowned Freya.
"Except that she might have been studying ancient Irish."
"Yeah and Roc's aren't perverts with small balls." She said sarcastically. "But let's go before I starve."
"Well it would help keep Java and Diana in the dark. Alright, but we need a portal first."
"Ok, go ahead." She shrugged. "But I want this fish and chips that the lycan told me about."
"I'm not sure if they have that in Ireland."
"...fuck." she grumbled while Martin looked for a portal, which was in the boys bathroom.
"Follow me."
"I know." she said while following him.
-Dublin, Ireland-
The two walked out an alleyway and headed out onto the streets.
"It's fine." Freya shrugged while fanning herself. "But it doesn't feel good on my feathers. It's just too hot."
"Yeah, but do you notice anything weird?"
She looked around and noticed lots of trees on the roads and buildings. "I think a dryad breeding season just passed, nothing too serious."
"Oh man, I know what this is." he frowned seeing them. "It's what happened with that druid all over again. If he's back then this is gonna be tough."
"A druid? What's that?"
"A human that can predict the future and use magic."
"Like an oracle or a servant of Hecate?"
"Yes but combined with being an advisor to a ruler and having enough respect and power to stop a battle between two armies." He said. "Oh and they don't get taxes and are the heads of their religion."
"...they don't have to get taxes." She said confused. 'Wow that's so lucky.'
"And the guy we had to deal with did this exact same thing. So if your body starts becoming a tree, get away from him."
She shivered. "Ok but I won't hesitate to fight, for I'm a proud member of the Hulder clan." She puffed her chest up proudly.
'Well at least she can stay optimistic.'
That's when a tree moved closer to them.
"H...Help me…"
They saw a horrified face on the side of it while getting the chills.
"Help….me…." the tree groaned before the face was pulled into the tree.
"...that's a horrible fate. Martin, I shall protect you from this evil. On my honor as a Hulder."
"Thanks. If we can get the drop on the druid before he knows we're here then we can put him away."
"How?"
"By turning him into a tree."
"...that's the oddest thing I have ever heard off. I like it."
"If we can find the Skeen Dug and get it on him, our work will be done. And who knows, if we find that girl Olivia mentioned, she might give me a reward kiss."
"Or a smack to the face."
"Ghlacadh roots shealbhú, snuff amach na cinn a wronged tú, agus iad a thabhairt go dtí an talamh." called a female voice from out of nowhere as tree trunks started to appear around them.
"Shit! Run Freya!"
"I can take them." She said with a grin.
"Bheith roots an bhiotáille an dorchadais agus ithe an maireachtála." the voice said as the tree trunks started to turn into demonic snakes with the heads of goats with sharp teeth. (Roots become the spirits of darkness and consume the living.)
Freya turned into her hulder form and let out a loud screech.
The trunks started to explode as green goop covered the streets as well as Freya and Martin.
"Freya! You need to be careful, what if that was one of the townsfolk? We can't bring them back if they explode."
She frowned at that while changing back. "Then what should I do then?!"
"We focus on getting away cause it's clear as day he knows we're here. But, it didn't sound like him."
"Maybe he's a lesbian?"
"That didn't make any sense."
"Meh, nothing makes sense. Like exploding goo trees."
"Crainn an bháis, ardú!" (Trees of death, rise!)
The trees around them started to unroot from the ground as their faces turned into something from the deepest darkest pits of horror movie history.
"GRA!"
"R-RUN!" cried Martin in fear.
The trees ran after the two as Freya grabbed Martin and took flight before escaping into a university building.
Martin started using nearby benches and vending machines to block the doors and panted. "Great, we're getting chased and have no idea where the druid is."
"Maybe the druid is hiding somewhere?"
"Maybe, but where in a town like this?"
"Fish and chips shop?"
"I told you I'm not even sure if they have those here. And now's not the time to think about food."
"Éisc agus Sceallóga Seirbigh." (Fish and chips of doom.)
A container of fish and chips appeared on the ground.
"...that's convenient." Both said in surprise. But that's when Martin heard the doors getting tackled by the trees outside.
"We need to get out of here." He said while grabbing Freya and carried her bridal style as they ran deeper into the university.
"H-Hey! What are you doing?!" She blushed red.
"Getting us out of here, didn't you hear me?"
"B-But why this?!" 'Even if this is kind of nice.'
"Because I had to protect you ok." he replied while reaching the top level and set her down. "Alright let's think, the druid's good, but there must be some place he'd go to hide out and stay safe cause he'd be careful since last time. Where would you hide if you were the druid?"
Freya thought about it and shrugged. "Maybe in one of the rooms here?"
"That's too obvious."
"But if I was a human then maybe I would hide in plain sight while keeping my identity hidden until it's too late?"
"But look around, there's no one in plain sight except for trees. Which I remind you are trying to kill us." he pointed out while hearing the banging get louder. "And are getting more angry by the second."
The banging got louder and louder before it stopped suddenly.
"Dóiteáin treoir mar thoradh ar mo foes dom." the voice said again as a Will-ó-the-Wisp appeared in front of them. (Fire of guidance lead my foes to me)
"Wow! A Will-o-the-Wisp!" smiled Martin before quickly remembering the situation. "Wait a sec, I've read these were known to lead travelers to their doom or lead them somewhere and the people were never heard from again."
"Then why is it here?" She asked while the wisp floated slowly at them.
"I bet the druid wants us to follow it, but I don't get why since he's got us pretty much cornered here."
"Maybe he's not what he seems? Like maybe it's a copycat?"
The wisp floated towards the door as it opened on its own as the two saw that the trees were normal again and in a row stretching for miles.
"Yeah, this is definitely a trap." remarked Martin.
"But what choice do we have? These trees might attack if we don't follow the fire."
"Hmmmm, alright." he relented. "But keep on your toes, er, talons."
She rolled her eyes while standing in her toes. "There, I'm on my toes."
"That was a metaphor, I didn't mean do it literally."
"Why didn't you say so." She said while putting her feet on the ground. "But let's hurry and find this druid."
The two of them went down the path while keeping their eyes peeled.
(Later)
The Will-ó-the-Wisp stopped at a room with a rocket ship and the name Marie Glúingel on it as it vanished into nothing.
"It's the name Olivia told us." spoke Freya.
"But why did it bring us here?"
"Lontráil." (Enter)
The door slowly opened with an eerie creaking sound.
"Remember, stay close." Martin whispered as he walked in first.
Freya followed behind him before seeing that it was a normal room with rockets everywhere.
"Fáilte." (Welcome) spoke a woman with ginger hair, a C cup chest and large ass, wearing a black cloak and looking at them with a smile. "Fáilte chuig mo ndlísheomraí istigh." (Welcome to my inner chambers).
"Um, hi." spoke Martin. 'Wait, now it all makes sense! The language, female tone, the druid possessed the girl we came to see! Wow I feel like a dumbass for forgetting he could do that.'
"Who are you?"
"Solas an Domhain agus Spéartha, agus tá mé anseo a fháil ar mo bhfeice ar an réimse mortal." (Light of the World and Heavens, and I am here to get my vengeance on the mortal realm.)
"Um….huh?"
The girl sighed. "Teanga na déithe, a thabhairt ar mo foes an tuiscint ar an focal ársa." (Language of the gods, give my foes the understanding of the ancient word.) she then caused mist to enter their ears. "Can you understand me now mortal and fairy?"
"Yes." frowned Freya. "But I'm no fairy, I'm a Hulder."
"I care not for such things, but why have you come to my realm?" She waved off Freya.
"Your realm?" Martin raised an eyebrow. "This isn't your realm, it's a town in Ireland."
She rolled her eyes. "That I know, but I rule here thus this is my realm. Now tell me what you came here for or I shall do the same treatment as the betrayers."
"What betrayers?" questioned Freya.
"The ones that this town created. The ones that my descendent hated for their 'superstition'."
"What are you talking about? Since when did you have a descendant?" asked Martin.
"My bloodline runs deeper than you think, for while I went to the west my sister stayed here and fathered my descendants for ten centuries." She said while getting up. "This one is the last of a bloodline that saved lives and healed the sick before they betrayed us for the foreign god."
"They?"
"The people of Ireland. For they lost their way and left us to be forgotten."
"So you took over her body and resumed what you did for revenge, again."
"They betrayed me only for my nature." She said with a frown. "I was a healer of the sick until I left my home, the people there were kind at first but as the years went by they realized I can never age because of my powers so they tricked me into the woods and sealed me away, I cursed them and I died. But what they didn't know was when I find a suitable descendant that I can live through them." She smirked. "And this one is just fine, for a lover of this unknown and putrid 'science'."
"Well be that as it is, you still took her body without permission."
She rolled her eyes. "That is true, but she forced me. If she had not screamed or ran and stood up for herself then I wouldn't have done it by force. But it matters not, state your business here and leave before I turn you into trees."
"It's because you started turning people into trees and tried to kill us, how's that sound?" he crossed his arms.
"Blame the girl, for her love of the 'science' of man made her arrogant and stupid. For she activated a curse of hate when mocking a girl that remembers the old ways." She said while a book appeared in her hands. "And all this because of her envy for stories."
"What does that even mean?!"
"As a child this girl dreamed of being a user of magic, but her parents were lovers of this accursed art and made her forget about magic and the old ways. As she grew, her hate and envy grew as well until she became a dog for 'science'. A tragic fate for my descendent."
"And that justifies you taking her body?"
"No, but her heart dictated through my spells. We are one and the same now. I know what she is and she knows what I am. We are binded together for eternity." She chuckled before one of her eyes turned a greenish brown. "No I'm not you quack! I am not a common duck."
"Sounds like you are." remarked Freya.
"Quiet fairy! That's a girl not a pixie shit. You need to let me talk. Let me have my body back! I keep telling you we can't, we are one now. Don't care you quack! I'm not a duck!" She argued to herself while Martin got an idea that might stop the druid and keep them from killing each other on accident.
"Wait a second!"
They stopped and looked at him.
"I get that one is envious about magic and the other wants to have revenge, but this might help both of you."
"How?"
"Well since Marie wants to have her body and thinks magic is trash, then I say allow the druid to stay in exchange for a mutual relationship that involves allowing Marie to remain in control half of the time and the other half for the druid. Make up a contract if you have to as long as no one gets hurt."
"Hmmm, that might work." She smirked. "Like hell it….well maybe it would work. It will but I have two rules, don't disregard magic and try to make your bloodline proud. And for me don't kill anyone and just TRY to learn about science. Fine but I won't like it. Same."
"This is weird." Freya whispered.
"I know, but at least we didn't get turned into trees."
"True. But what about the trees?"
"Oh yeah. Uh hold on you two, you still forgot about everyone who was turned into trees."
Marie/Solas an Domhain agus Spéartha looked at them before sighing. "Fine, gods an domhain, a thabhairt ar an marbh leis an saol agus iad a unroot ó do thuiscint." (Gods of the earth, bring the dead to life and unroot them from your grasp.)
The area became covered in green goo as the trees became human again, but naked and out cold.
"Well that helped, somewhat."
"Still I'm covered in goo." Freya frowned while shaking the goo off, in her Hulder form.
"AHHHHH! Calm down it's just a fairy! It's a...ah… Weak, now she's out cold."
'This day got more weird, and that's saying something.'
(Awhile later)
-Center, Mom's office-
'I wonder how Martin and Freya are doing.' Olivia thought while looking at the Infinite Space cube in her hands.
The doors opened as said people entered with a girl wearing a dark sweater and pants.
"I take it everything worked out ok?"
"Yes and no." Martin said with a chuckle.
"This is...so cool. No it's just a waste of metal, and the fairies are just too gross. That was an alien...which is illogical. For once we agree on something."
"Sounds like it worked out just fine."
"Wait you knew?" Freya asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Of course, we monitored her for two weeks before the incident and found that she is a descendant of the Dark Druid." Mom said. "And I did add her to the Harem act after all."
"...WHAT?!"
"Why didn't you tell us?!" cried out Martin with wide eyes.
"Because if I told you then you might have been caught off guard and turned into a tree."
"That's irresponsible." Freya frowned. "Even the Nyx bitch wouldn't try something such as that."
"You can cry me a river or just be happy you're still in one piece."
Martin sighed before walking towards her and whispered. "Well, then I guess I won't give you that special present I was going to give you, you know the pink one with the vibrating feature."
Freya looked at him surprised. "You got me a present?"
"Oh yes, it's a toy pigeon. But since you're acting like this I guess I'm not going to-"
"Wait! Maybe I was being too...bitchy that time." she admitted with a frown. "But I've got my eyes on that woman."
"Which one?" He teased slightly.
"Oh shut up."
"...what about me? What about means my descendent?" Spoke up Marie/Solas an Domhain agus Spéartha.
"You'll be staying with Martin until the cube's ready."
"What? But why? I mean he's cute but… I'm fine with this arrangement plus I am bisexual. WHAT?! I am so stop yelling."
'We gotta deal with that for a while.' thought Martin and Freya with sweatdrops.
As this occurred we see into Mom's computer which had the file, Miss Dorey, on it as the screen went to black.
