"This place gives me the creeps." Bloom looked around. "It even doesn't have proper walls."
"You learn to live with it." Icy walked a little for her. "What's my main problem is all that water." She pointed through some of the holes. "Or whatever it may be."
"It's indeed water." Baltor stepped from behind a pillar. "And what are you doing here?"
Saladin stepped forward. "What do you think!? Where is Faragonda!?" The only answer was a sarcastic smile.
"She? She's lying there." Baltor pointed to the back wall. Faragonda was lying on her side, curled up while pressing her hand to her chest. The few fingers that could be seen had brand marks in them everywhere. He had burned her hand… Her eyes were looking at the group and a spark of hope appeared. "Alive, as you see."
"But there it stops!" Griffin created a energy ball. "What have you done to her!?"
"Punished her." Baltor smiled. "Being locked up in a stone makes you want to punish someone." He walked towards Faragonda and touched her shoulder. She shivered. "And my choice fell on Faragonda."
"What do you mean; 'locked up in a stone'?" Bloom aimed her hand on Baltor. "And why Miss F.?"
"She hasn't told you? Just as always, she tells nothing. I wasn't Created out of the Stone, I was freed. My mother locked me up in it. The Ancient Coven thought they created me, but they freed me. And I wanted revenge ever since." Baltor stroked her shoulder making her even more shiver.
"So you want to hurt your mother by torturing Faragonda? What's the reason of that?" Saladin's gaze darkened.
Baltor started laughing. "The reason is obviously! I have 2 Heads here, 9 star students and they don't get it? Faragonda is my mother!"
Auw, that did hurt I think... In next chap the Husband is coming :D Let's look which side he takes... :P
