Chapter 6. Hope this story is okay! I haven't got many reviews. But at least the two that I got (from the same person XD) meant that they liked it :D
Lily continued to run down the street through the fields, looking for the distinctive figure of Mr Dagger. The others were well ahead but they might have missed him.
Lily looked at her shoes. She wasn't sure what would happen if she continued down north-east towards where he might have gone. Going directly north-east would mean going through mud, that was most likely extremely deep. She shrugged. That was a chance she was willing to take if it meant stopping a bloodthirsty criminal. He was even a Necromancer. How could ANYONE get more evil than that?
Suddenly, Fletcher appeared beside her.
"Oh, hi...I don't believe I got your name?" Lily asked, as she started to climb over the fence into a field which was almost knee-deep in mud.
"Fletcher. The others asked me to teleport you to where they are. They think they have found some clues. That is, if he is a Necromancer..."
"Oh, he is. So what did they find then? Is it a watch by any chance?"
"Yes, yes it is. How did you know?" Fletcher asked, surprised.
"That was his Necromancy object. I noticed that it was pitch black and, although it was working, there was something just...wrong about it."
"Alright then, we'd better go." He said, lightly taking her arm. A second later they were standing in a small clearing. Lily waited until the dizziness passed before brushing her soft blonde hair out of her striking eyes. She glanced up. Everyone had disappeared.
Suddenly, Lily looked behind her, just as a fist went flying into her face. She flew back into a tree and groaned slightly before getting up, into a fighting pose. There was a woman with dark red hair and golden eyes, staring at her. Next to this woman was a younger man, maybe 20. He had floppy black hair and bright green eyes. The woman put a black necklace, with a rose on it around her pale neck. A Necromancer. Shadows curled around her and suddenly become sharp and flew towards Lily at high speed. She only just had time to dodge them. She clicked her fingers and summoned a fireball before flinging it at the female Necromancer with as much speed and precision as she could. The shadows became a shield that immediately put out the flame. Lily slammed air into the shield. It dissolved the shield but didn't get through. The man smiled.
"You realise that your puny manipulation of the elements couldn't get through those shadows don't you? There is no way you could be as powerful as Blood Rose and I."
The only response he got was a glare. Lily was bored of his boasting. Of course, she had heard of this pair. Blood Rose and Ransom East were wanted criminals. East had an especially powerful skill of forcing people to do something without them realising. The only way to stop him being able to do that is having another with a power like his putting a shield around your mind. Unfortunately, Lily hadn't got around to that yet.
Ransom clapped his hands twice. "And...She's out." He said, as he forced her unconscious. Lily slumped against the tree that she had gone flying into. She tried to keep her eyes open but they fought back and her blue-green eyes closed.
In the normal world, people were hurrying home as it started to rain. Young children were playing tag and jumping in the new puddles, laughing and shouting. Parents were smiling and talking to other parents. Couples were holding hands as they ran through the rain, laughing. That was the mortal world.
In this magical world, in this small clearing, drops of water were dropping onto an unconscious girl. Her white-blonde hair was soaked and her pale face was covered in drops of water. A young man picked up her limp body and carried her through the forest to a van. They put her in the back, and got into the driver's seat. A woman sat next to him in the passenger's seat. They drove away.
So that's this chapter :) Hope you liked it! Please review! And thanks to YouCantTakeTheSkyFromMe for helping me with taken name ideas. Please read her one-shots, reasons to kill. They're sooo good :D Also read NerdySkeleton's stories. They're some good reading too XD
