Chapter Fifteen
No one mourns the wicked
Fiona then realised what her evil self had done to her father and the one she loved. Anger flowed through her veins. She then walked into the clearing. She saw her father in a cage. He looked at her sadly. "Where is she?" she asked angrily. She then heard someone groan in pain. She also heard her evil twin laugh.
Fiona knew her True Love was in pain. Anger then exploded and the ground vibrated fiercely. "What've you done to him?" she asked furious. She knelt down beside the one she loved. His eyes were closed and he was hurt badly. His shirt was torn badly. "Please be okay! Don't leave me, okay? I promise you she'll pay for this!" she said through silent tears. "How touching! I can't believe you like being a freak!" her evil twin said mockingly. Magical energy then emanated from her. This frightened her evil twin. "How can you do that? You should be weaker than putty!" she said.
"You'd be surprised what I can do. My power is fuelled by a little something called Love, which is something you don't have. My husband and I are very powerful because of our strong love. You just crossed a very powerful line. I may be a princess but I don't hurt easily and using my family to get to me is sick." She told her. Her evil twin then felt weak and fainted. Fiona then summoned a tornado. It swept her away. This relieved Fiona. She then freed her father. He rested in her hand. He saw sadness in her eyes as she put Shrek over her shoulder. "Let's go home." She said. Suddenly a strong vortex whipped around them and brought them back to Far, Far Away in the present. Harold watched as his daughter ran into her room and laid her husband on her bed. Lillian wondered what was wrong.
"She took care of that evil twin. You should've seen her! She kicked ass!" he told her. Lillian then went into Fiona's room. She found her daughter on the bed near her husband trying to wake him up. "I'm sorry she did this to him. How did you… destroy her?" she asked her. "I used Love's magic to destroy her but I wish… I could've gotten to them sooner. Than he wouldn't be like this!" she told her. Fiona then got an idea. "Maybe I can use Love's magic to heal him! I wouldn't be the same without him in my life!" she said. Suddenly she closed her eyes and held her husband's hand. "Please let this work! It's the only way!" she thought. Her body then glowed with that same magical energy that she'd used to destroy her evil twin. It went from her into his body.
Lillian had been watching this by opening the door a little. The magical energy then faded. But she saw a little change to her husband 's condition and smiled. "It worked! He's just gotta wake up!" she told herself. Harold was relieved but was a little worried for Fiona. He hoped his son in law would pull through. But he had more things on his mind than this. "We'd better get to work on ruling the kingdom." He told Lillian. She didn't think he should be that concerned with the way Fiona was acting. But maybe it was because she was a woman and understood how her own daughter was feeling at the minute. Puss then walked in. He wanted to see Fiona. "Maybe she'd be able to turn me back." He thought as she walked into the room. Donkey understood what he was doing and followed him.
"What's going on?" she asked them. She was a little bit freaked by this but calmed down after they explained what had happened. "Guys I don't know if I can do anything for you but I'll try." She said to them. She then thought hard and summoned her powers. Suddenly bright slivers of light surrounded them. When it disappeared, things looked back to normal… She looked at the bed but something was wrong with Shrek. He'd been turned to stone. "Oh great! We're sorry that happened!" they said but they weren't back to normal. They were still in each other's bodies. They watched as Fiona broke down crying. "We'd better get out of here!" Donkey said as he backed away. "Si I agree! Let's leave her to simmer down a little. " Puss said as well as they left the room. "There's only one thing to do!" Fiona thought as a tear landed on her husband's stony cheek. She then climbed out the window and ran off. She ran into the forest and climbed up a tree.
She'd left a note explaining to her parents why she'd done this. "I'm sorry I hurt you and disappointed my parents." She thought sadly. Rain fell onto her skin. She shivered in fear and of the cold.
