Fire is Stronger than the Spiral...

Chapter 2

Third Person POV

The girls went into their battle pose, and Malistaire just laughed.

"Think you can beat me?" he snarled. "You don't have the spells! Henchman! Defeat these pathetic little girls. They would be a great addition to my army..." Then he disappeared.

The Henchmen slowly stalked forward, and Miranda could tell Emma was shaking inside her robe.

"Emma!" Miranda said. She didn't want her apprentice to get hurt. "Go get Ambrose! Tell him what happened!"

Emma ran away without hesitation.

Erin, Miranda, and the Henchmen went into battle. Miranda shuffled around in her pockets and found her Mp3 player, and played the Kingdom Hearts battle song.

"Seriously?" Erin said, glaring at Miranda. "Kingdom Hearts? This is Wizard 101!"

"What? I like it..." Miranda said.

Miranda's POV

We drew our seven cards(They should make a real card version of this! lol), and I looked at her hand. I had 1 Heck Hound, 2 Fire Blades, 2 Fire Traps, 1 Wyldfire, and 1 Immolate. Pretty good hand, I thought. The Pointer in the middle of the arena chose me and Erin to go first. Thank you! I thought. I chose to play Fire Blade on myself(35% to next Fire spell) and I drew the Fire symbol as I thought in my head, Fire Blade, Fire Blade. The Fire symbol burned brighter, and I threw my card down at my feet. A Fire Blade floated around me, and I smiled. The card went into my discard pile, and Erin went next.

Erin played and Ice card, and an Ice Trap started floating around the second Henchman.

The first Henchman played Fire Trap on me, and the next one played Fire Cat on Erin. It only took away a small nub of her health, and Erin taunted, "Is that all you got?"

I laughed as the Henchmen glared and snarled at her, then the Pointer went back to me and Erin.

I drew a card and it was Storm Trap. I jumped with glee, then played Fire Trap on the first Henchman.

Erin drew a card she jumped with glee, too. She played a Snow Serpent, then it was the Henchmen's turns.

The first Henchman played Fire Elf on me, and an aura appeared at my feet.

The second one played his own spell, that's what I call them. The ones where they appear in the middle of the Arena? Yeah, those are what I mean. Well, the second did that do Erin, and it did 100 damage.

"Ow!" Erin squealed. "Ok, it's on!"

The pointer came back to us, and I drew another card. It was a Meteor Strike. Yes! I thought. I only had three pips though, so I decided to do a Fire Trap on the second one.

Erin took her turn, and she gained a power pip. She played another Snow Serpent, and it was back to the Henchmen.

The first one did Wyldfire, and I thought, Big mistake.

The second one did Fire Cat on me this time, then it was our turn again.

I immediately played Meteor Strike, and they died with a final growl.

Me and Erin danced, as Emma came back with Headmaster Ambrose.

"Why, girls! You defeated Malistaire's Henchmen! They were much harder than when you first came here, huh?" Headmaster Ambrose joked.

Everyone laughed, and Malistaire crawled out of the mist, clutching his chest. "I can't believe I'm saying this, but, you... win." Then he disappeared.

Third Person POV

Miranda had a confused look on her face. Headmaster Ambrose noticed it.

"What's wrong?" he asked, as if nothing was wrong.

"Ummm, Malistaire, he was clutching his chest," she answered.

The Headmaster rubbed his beard, then said, "I think we found his weakness!"

A/N: Heeeeeey! How was that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know I described the battle scene kinda weird, huh? Don't worry though, I'll try and make it better. Anyway, please don't forget to review! It makes my day! :P
