Three Hundred Years ago…

Blossom's POV

I walked through the large hallway of the cathedral like palace where I lived with my two sisters, Bubbles and Buttercup. We were heading back from or study when one of the guards rushed up to us, holding his Spear in one hand, he half bowed with his right arm against his chest, resting it back down he said," Princess's Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup, your father wishes to speak to you in the great hall."

Nodding our heads we thanked him, well Buttercup nodded her head at least, and we quickly but carefully got to the throne room, bowing in respect to our father, he said," Alright girls I know it has been fun in the castle and you will miss all of the maids and servants, but it seems that each of you have been hand picked by the greatest wizard in the seven kingdoms." We were quite surprised our father said this until a shadowy figure emerged.

A tall being stepped out from behind a creavas in the corner, he was wearing a red chest plate with pinkish gauntlets and highlights around the armor, my littlest sister Bubbles giggled at his armor, chuckling he said," Amused are we, little Bubbles I can tell you are a cheery person just by looking at you, you miss Blossom are an intelligent and independent girl, and you Buttercup, oh how so many things make you up it is amazing, I am Him, master mage at the Order, I have come to request the three children of the King of Daregeth to my Order."

This was the first encounter with this Him and it certainly wasn't the last, turning to my father I asked," Lord are we permitted to go, will it be to difficult on you father?" Smiling towards us he said," My children, whatever you think is best will be fine with me, I want you to be happy, if you want to go it is your decision, don't forget to write and send to me, I love you girls."

I smiled and wiped the tear that was forming at my eye, embracing him in a deathly hug I thanked him over and over, each of my sisters showing there love to their father as well, Him waited patiently his warming smile still across his face as we approached him, grasping onto one of my hands he knelt down and said," don't worry, you can still write and tell him how everything is going, come on little ones we mustn't waste any more time."

Pink clouds began to form around us and we found ourselves in a completely black room, I heard Bubbles squeal because of the sudden darkness, I heard a loud snap and lights flickered on, or so I thought actually the walls moved and showed the outside, Him turned to us and said," Alright you three, get yourselves adjusted into your new room, I will come back in exactly three hours and will show you around then, good day apprentice mages."

Him turned and walked away, waving back to us before leaving, we each turned and looked around the room, it was farely simple for a magic room, there were three beds on one side of the room and a few shelves around on each wall, the rug was a simple stitched rug, we each hoped we could edit the room's condition as soon as possible.

Him arrived on time exactly three hours after leaving, he actually seemed taken back by the room's new condition, we removed the rug and replaced it with a red, green and blue one, we each painted the shelves in our favorite colors, mine being red, Bubbles' being blue, and Buttercup's being green, the beds also had matching sheets and pillows.

Him said after another minute or so," My you girls sure work fast when you want something done, you will do great here like I thought…" Turning around he continued," But for now I need you to follow me so I can show you around our complex and show you to the people you will get to know more while here." I could tell me and my sister's eyes widened as we laid eyes on his hand or rather claw that was reaching out to grasp our hand.

Chuckling a bit he said," Oh I see you have noticed my claw, well you see outside of the Order our forms are hidden, but in reality I am not a mortal human, this claw is one proof of that, it is rather helpful however, it is much easier to chanel energy to then a normal hand." He rose his other hand for a demonstration as he sparked a ball of lightning into that one.

I said fascinated," Wow that looks like it took time to master, how did you do it that fast?" He smiled and said," I practiced for years on channeling energy it is easier then it looks when you master channeling but it does take a lot of focus when trying to master it, come we must be going, we are almost late to our first meeting, we have three to go to."

Him led us through multiple different cooridors several of which came out of nowhere, until we finally reached the first person, an older woman was sitting in front of her desk, she smiled up at us, looking over us she asked," Are these the three girls you were talking about Arch Mage?" Nodding his head Him says," Yes they are, Oh my where are my manors, Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup this is Ms. Sarah Miracle Bellum, Sarah this is Blossom" Pointing towards me," This is Bubbles" he then points towards Bubbles," And this here is Buttercup. Girls Ms. Sarah here is in charge of all forms of restoration and illusion magic, she will teach you all that is necessary for this form of magic."

We had to get going so me and Bubbles quickly thanked Ms. Sarah for her time, Buttercup wanted to get things over with an just waved, sighing me and Bubbles quickly caught up with the two disappearing down the hall, it didn't take as long as before but Buttercup stopped and asked about the Armory and the Weaponry on the way, Him didn't really say much only that it was for emergency purposes.

We walked into a large room that was full of all kinds of strange devices that didn't seem normal to me or my sisters, Him seemed to be a bit surprised with some of them, we waited for a few minutes before Him shouted," Mojo get out here!" There was a loud banging noise followed by a shout, A beast like man appeared behind one of the devices, he seemed about half human half ape and was a bit smaller then most humans.

He shouted angrily," Arch Mage what is the meaning of this sudden and overly abrupt manner in which you have decided to call upon me, Mojo Jojo to this oh so prior moment of time while I am on the verge of my most brilliant and complicated device to date!" Him rubbed his temple with his hand and said," you continue to annoy me Mojo, anyway I just wanted to show you the girls you will be teaching, Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup, girls Mojo here is going to teach you anything to do with the history of the Arcane ways and how to chanel energy, Mojo…" Him nodded his head and quickly walked out, Buttercup doing the same with a wave, me and Bubbles thanked him for his time, he stated a thank you list and walked away, we had to catch up quicker this time because Him traveled farther up and traveled up a long stair case.

We reached the top floor of the Order Tower, Him unlocked the door and entered, we followed after. Pointing to three seats we each sat down, he walked away and entered another room and returned with a man who was shorter then him (then again Him is like eight feet tall or so), he had a short crop of black hair that was neatly cut, he was wearing a white robe that had a few pockets and a pipe in his mouth, smiling he said," Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup, I have been expecting you for a few days now, I am Master Conjurer Utonium, it is very nice to meet you."

I quickly greeted him with a polite gesture, Bubbles smiled at him and thanked him for his time and shook his hand enthusiastically, Buttercup nodded her head in return of his handshake. Smiling Him said," Alright you may want to get used to this man, because he is your Master now." Everyone else seemed surprised even our new master, he asked," Wait what, when was this decided?" Him smiled and said," Just now, I am sure you want to talk with them so I will leave them in your care, see you around you four…" He chuckled and walked away, he whispered something to Buttercup and walked away.

Turning I asked," What was that all about?" she shrugged and said," He wants me to respect Mr. Utonium more, But I think we both know I'm not going to do that." I smiled and said," Yes we all know that, come on Buttercup, lets find out a bit more about him and more about this place, I really think we can benefit from it."

Buttercup's POV

I was a bit shocked to hear this guy was our master, Him was walking away when he turned to me and whispered," If you want to see something really cool Buttercup, come to the roof top when you can by yourself, it will benefit you more anyway." His eyes flashed green as he walked away and exited the room we were in.

Blossom approached me and asked," What was that all about?" I shrugged my shoulders and said," He wants me to respect Mr. Utonium more, but I think we both know I'm not going to do that." She smiled and said," Yes we all know that, Buttercup, lets find out a bit more him and more about this place, I really think we can benefit from it."

It wasn't against me to lie to my sisters, I did it quite frequently back home and I took pleasure in doing it because I rock at it, plus there was no way they were going to know that I was asked to do something they weren't, it would be better later to tell them, then see there reaction. Me and Blossom walked back to where we left Bubbles and found she was in another room helping our master.

Blossom quickly joined them and started to pull out ingredients and tools for use, I hated trying to mix things and come up with things, it was against my personality, turning slightly I smiled and said to myself," They won't care if I am gone for just a minute." I snuck out while they were distracted and moved to the strange stair case nearby.

I noticed there were three sets of stairs, one leading to the right that went up, one on my left that went down and one in front that also went up, shrugging I walked up the middle staircase, along the way I noticed purple crystals placed in the walls on either side of me. There was a large metal door at the top of the stairs, it took all my force but I shoved the door open and walked out.

A very cold breeze brushed against my face, for me to shiver must mean this place was cold because I never shivered because the cold never effects me," Well that was quicker then I thought, I was certain I would be waiting at least two hours or so." I was startled by his voice since it came from nowhere, turning I found him above me on an upper area.

I growled and said," What did you want that called to be up here in this cold weather?" He chuckled and said," well your sisters were so entertained with my weak lightning I thought maybe you would want to see what I am capable of?" I replied," So earlier's display was for show… well if you got more to show then do."

He smirked and said," Well I know you will enjoy this little display more then your sisters, afterwards I will talk about other matters as well, now then let me show you what I can do!" Him rose his claw in the air this time, before when he made lightning it was his hand, I noticed his eyes were shut now, for the first thirty seconds or so I was a bit angry nothing was happening.

Suddenly I felt a surge of energy sweep by me as a ball of electricity began to form above his claw, the energy resenating from it was very intense and managed to push me back, his eyes flashed green as they opened, turning he released the energy and sent it flying off. The was a blue electrical surge that shot out as the ball exploded in a bright blue flash of lightning that managed to hit a bit of the building.

Smiling he said," so what about that demonstration how was it?" I may have been smiling at that point I really can't say I was amazed at the force it had with just that amount, I said," That was amazing, that was powerful and destructive!" He chuckled and replied," then I guess I judged you correctly Buttercup, I must tell you now, you will never learn how to do that while you are under Utonium..."

I sighed and said," But that was so cool I want to learn how to do that!" I pouted a bit but his strange smirk told me he had more to say, he replied," Which is why for the first time ever in the history of the Order, I am going to place you in two magical classes instead of one." I wasn't sure I heard him correctly, shaking my head I asked," Wait say what?" He smirked and said while clicking his claw," I am going to bend the rules to where I am your Master along with Conjurer Utonium, you will learn Conjuration from him and in a secret training ground I shall teach you to master the class of Destruction, I will come for you when needed, until then head back and do as your other master tells you."

I shook his extended claw and nodded my head, rushing to the door I quickly made my way down the stairs again, I was already excited and really couldn't wait for my training in Destruction. Rushing by a room I heard a loud shout from within, slowing down I backed up to gazed inside. There was a creature inside, he had fur over his body but didn't look like any creature I had ever seen, I must have made a noise because he instantly spun around to face me.

I quickly hid and started to bolt down the hallway, even though I didn't know who he was something about him seemed so unsettling, hopefully I wouldn't have to see his face again. After a bit I finally reached my masters room, opening the door I slid inside, only to be gripped by my youngest sister, Bubbles. Smiling she said," Oh I missed you so much, where were you?"

I sighed as I shoved her off, I said," I wanted to take a look around, I was having fun until I found this angry creature guy…. Um Mojo, who almost caught me looking into his room, I wasn't sure if he was too friendly or not." My master must have overheard because he walked over with Blossom and said," Oh you must mean Mojo Jojo."

Looking at him confused I asked," Maybe, not sure if that's his last name didn't pay much attention then." He chuckled and said," Yah well there really is no need to fear Mojo, he may get agitated quiet often, but he is a nice enough man, err I mean half man, he is also some kind of simion in origin but his intellect far surpasses most humans."

Blossom seemed too fascinated and I shrugged and said," doesn't sound that tough though, can the guy fight at all?" he replied with a smirk," Well I am sure you can ask him yourself, we are going to talk to him in a little while." I rolled my eyes and slumped down, Blossom said," Great, then I will be able to learn of his origin and hopefully become more intelligent."

I sighed again thinking," Great, Blossom found another thing she will spend her time learning about, little arrogant book worm." I half glared at her out of the corner of my eye, I really can't wait to tell her about the destruction spells I am going to learn, then I can rub that in her face, all I knew is that this was going to be a weird next few days.

We had walked back to the door that led to that strange room that Mojo was in, I heard his grumbling and shouting as something shattered. Pushing us in our master said," Hello Mojo, working on your little projects as usual?" Mojo grunted and said as he turned," you should have guessed such things Utonium, I should not have to remind you constantly of my futile efforts to fuse the very magical soul into….. Wait one minute….. So those new mages are your new students Utonium, did Him finally decide to "replace" your old ones?"

Our master clenched his fist as he said," Those matter were of the entire council and you know it, they disregarded the safety and guidelines of the rules, those three were falsely placed under me, Him should have figured they were insane and wouldn't listen to me." Mojo growled as well and said," that didn't stop you from leaving them when you could have saved them did it oh great Master Conjurer!"

Blossom asked," Um who are you talking about, what three, what happened?" Mojo crossed his arms and said," A while back, I am not sure how long, Utonium here had three boys as his students; Brick, Boomer and Butch, one day they snuck from his supposed careful watch and slipped into the caverns, a search party was sent out to find them, Arch Mage Him even went and did not find anything, we all came to the conclusion that the three were killed…."

Mojo and Utonium both had there eyes shut as they recalled the past, I sighed and asked," So how exactly did you know they were dead?" Mojo growled," They entered the caverns, no remains were ever found and they never returned, there bodies gone, deceased, and destroyed, they suffered at the hands of the Lich King."

I rose and eyebrow and asked," You believe in the Lich King, he is an old myth based on the supposed sudden appearance of the noctorious bandit crew, and their leader, Ace Gold." Mojo rolled his eyes and said," Uh that Ace….. Never was a bright one I'll tell you that, he stole plenty of artifacts and sacked the Order before Him showed up…. Not sure what he did but he drove him away, they say the scar that runs from his eye down to his chest was caused by Him, he has never denied or admitted to this however, Him is one of the most secretive people you will know here."
