This might be a little intense for the younger readers. I am warning that someone does die in this chapter. I would also like to thank HorseMagic17 and HollytheKitty for reviewing this story. Hope you all enjoy it! :-D
Chapter 6
I wasn't out for very long, probably twenty minutes. It must be because I'm already asleep. I opened my eyes to see that I was at the base of the magic carpet ride. I groggily looked over to the others also starting to wake up. Except I couldn't see Kyle or Daisy. Ian was sitting far from me. Jenny was sitting far on the other side of me… Jenny! I thought she escaped!
"They got you too?" I asked her.
Jenny nodded. She turned towards me. She looked steamed. "Because somebody pointed me out!"
"Are you accusing me of something?" I asked.
"I was perfectly hidden until you showed up!" Jenny hissed.
"Stop fighting!" Ian ordered. "We have to get out of here!"
"That's not happening."
I spun around. Daisy was standing with her arms crossed below us. She doesn't look as innocent as before. Her clothes weren't bright and colorful like before. They were dark like night.
"Daisy!" I shouted. I was relieved to see her. "Help us out!"
"Like I said, that's not happening." She said.
"What's wrong with you, Daisy?" Ian asked.
"Ugh! Stop calling me that!" Daisy said in a disgusted tone. "My name isn't Daisy! It's Narcissa!"
"That's a weird name." Ian mumbled. "It doesn't really suit you."
"So you are the deceiver." Jenny whispered.
Narcissa smirked. "I thought you'd never get it. Guess I lost that bet, but I'm not the only one."
Narcissa stepped aside. A person stepped into the light with his head down and a hood covered his head. He slowly lifted the hood and revealed his face.
Kyle!
He had bags under his eyes. He looked at me and I could sense he felt regret for this. Maybe he did love me, or maybe not. I felt my heart freeze and legs turn to Jell-O.
"Kyle…" I whispered. He turned away from me with pain in his eyes.
"Enough of the drama!" A voice said from in the control box. It was the one green lady I saw on Main Street. "Finish them, Narcissa!"
"With pleasure." Narcissa whispered. Narcissa came at me first. She kicked me in the gut. I tried to get up but she pushed me back down. "What's the matter?" She taunted. "Fight!"
I stood up. Narcissa punched me in the face. I staggered backwards with my hand to my cheek. I swung at her with my fist, but I went right through her. I looked at her, stunned by what just happened. Ian was also astonished. I took another swing at Narcissa but went through her again. I reached out a hand to her. It went through her shirt. I couldn't even feel her.
"Having fun there?" Narcissa asked. I retracted my hand and looked at it, dumbfounded.
Narcissa kicked me back onto the ground. She reached into my pocket and snatched the gem away from me. She got off of me and admired the blue gem. I swiped at her feet and she collapsed. The blue stone rolled away from us and at Jenny's feet. She quickly picked it up and ran away.
I pinned Narcissa down so she wouldn't go running for the gem. When I was young my grandpa taught me some Chinese tricks from when he was 'young and adventurous'. I held my finger on one of her temples and jabbed the pressure point on her neck, which wasn't easy to find if I might add. She was stunned which gave me just enough time to knock her out. I punched her aside the face and she was out for the count.
Jenny screamed.
I spun around on my heels. Kyle had caught Jenny in a sneak attack. Jenny was pressed against a wall. She was between an Overtaker and a hard place.
"Ian!" Jenny shouted. "Catch!"
Jenny tossed the jewel to Ian. He jumped up and caught the gem. He palmed it for a minute and then stopped. His face went white. He let go of the stone and it clattered to the ground. Then Ian fell to the ground with a knife in his back.
I screamed, but nothing came out. My throat was dry with fear.
"You know, I thought that this generation would be a stronger threat."
I could see the silouhette of someone behind Ian. A cold wind blew around us. It was all too familiar.
"I was wrong." The person stepped into the light where we could see her. It was the green skin lady from Main Street. She pulled her knife out of Ian's back and wiped the blood off with a piece of cloth. Then she picked up the blue gem.
"Maleficent!" Kyle shouted. "You never said that anyone would get hurt!"
Maleficent cackled. "I'm evil! I lie!"-Maleficent stepped over Ian's limp body-"And I intend to do more than hurt them."
Kyle backed away from Jenny. He turned towards me. Pain spread over his face. I could tell that he never meant for this to happen. I looked back at Narcissa who didn't know what to say.
Maleficent raised the stone high over her head. It seemed to glow in the moonlight. It was like it was collecting the light for itself. Then I realized that it was getting dimmer around us. The gem was taking the light. I looked over at Jenny who was backing away slowly. Narcissa pushed me off of her to get away from Maleficent.
"You two were good assistance for a while." Maleficent said to Narcissa and Kyle. "But I don't need you anymore."
Narcissa ran for the trees. Maleficent saw this and pointed the gem in Narcissa's direction. Then the gem let out a blinding light, and when the light was gone, so was Narcissa.
Maleficent smirked and then pointed the stone at us. I felt someone take my hand. At first I thought it was Kyle but when I turned around it was Jenny.
"Relax." Jenny whispered softly.
I closed my eyes and cleared my head. Actually, only one thing remained in my thoughts. Ian. I was so angry now. Jenny obviously saw that because she told me to relax again. I took a deep breath. Then I felt a tingling sensation flow through me. I snapped my eyes open and turned towards Maleficent.
Jenny helped me stand up. I stood there for a second and took another deep breath. I slowly walked towards Maleficent. She raised the stone even higher above her head.
"I don't know why Wayne's nephew would choose you." Maleficent said in a raspy voice. "I hope there won't be a 3rd generation. You'd think Mark would learn a lesson." She aimed the stone at me. I started running for the gem. Jenny started screaming at me, saying it was suicide.
Then the blinding light came.
