This is my fave story i've written! ^-^
_________________________________

Blade woke up naturally the next morning at five AM. She flopped back down on her pillow, she wouldn't get back to sleep now. She stood up and walked over to her chest. She opened it and brought out the black and silver spell book. She sat on her bed and opened it to the mind reading spell. She looked down it and found what she was looking for.

"Warning this spell may have side effects if you read the minds of other beings." She read aloud. "Is Naboo something else?" She said. She turned to the invisibilty spell and ran over to her chest. She brought out a bottle of sparkly sand. It was from various mythical beings. It was their ashes, specially used for invisiblity potions. She made a circle and sat in the middle of it, she put the book in front of her and read the passage.

"My wishes don't come true. Please grant me this one.
Make me invisible and let me see what is there.
Let me see the unseen and hear the unheard.
Let me be unknown to my enemies.
Let me be unseen to those I protect." The circle of dust dissapeared and she looked at her hand. It worked, she put her books back and the dust and walked out. She walked quietly into Naboo's room. He was asleep, she thought. He certianly looked like that. Blade looked around, it wasn't a normal room. She looked down at him.

'Aww, he isn't wearing his turban!' She thought to herself as she walked through his room. She stopped in front of a poster of Rudi and Spider. She sighed and walked past it, but something was talking to her in there. She walked over to it and closed her eyes. It opened and she pulled out a book with a red star on it that kept lighting up. 'The book of black magic, where did he get this? I've been on this planet since 1860 and I've never been able to get a copy of this!' She put it back and closed the window. She walked over further and looked at some of the things on his shelf. He had all sorts of strange things a human didn't have. She pulled out his dressing gown/robe thing and looked in the pocket, she pulled out a card.

"The board of Shamen?" She whispered, she suddenly realised. "The board of Shamen!" She yelled. She realised what she had done and put the card back in his pocket and tried to run for the door. He sat up and she stopped. Naboo looked around, he got out of bed and walked around to the Rudi and Spider poster.

"Kalamanoohup!" He commanded it and it opened. Blade slapped a hand over her mouth in order not to scream. The board of Shamen had been hunting her since she came into exsistance and the book of black magic would be able to sniff her out; she looked down at her feet, she was becoming visible.

'Oh shit what do I do?' She saw the door was open and she made a run for it. She ran back into her room and chanted the words.

"My wish is granted. Let me be seen." She became visible and she dived into her bed. She closed her eyes and prentened to be asleep. The door opened and it was presumably Naboo. All she needed was an excuse for waking up.

'Come on Blade. why would mortals wake up in the middle of the night? Come on think! Got it!' Blade sat up straight panting. Naboo turned around and looked at her.

"What's wrong?"

"I had a nightmare!" She looked at him funnily. "What were you doing in my room?"

"I heard something slam and I came to check."

"And that?" She said pointing to the book. Naboo couldn't think of anything to say.

"I'm defensive of this book. It's been passed down my family." He said thinking on his feet, clutching it closer to his chest. Blade nodded and rubbed her eyes. Even though she knew the real reason, that was a good cover up. He came and sat next to Blade and she blushed. She lifted up Shadow, who had become interested in all the movement. Naboo stroked her cat and looked down at the book. He made sure the star was facing down so she couldn't see.

'She's an innocent human. She's a mortal. I can't tell her I'm from Xooberon. Not now.'

'Even though I know he isn't Human and mortal he is from the board of shamen and they would tear me to pieces within seconds.' Blade thought, stroking Shadow. She looked down at her watch. It was coming up six and she could hear someone else getting up. She jumped up and walked out, Naboo followed her and she made herself a cup of tea. She drank it with Naboo watching her. She raised an eyebrow.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Naboo shrugged.

"I dunno, there's something different about you. Your not like everyone else." He said walking over to her, she could feel her demise coming closer to her, it was now breathing down her neck. She was in fear of her landlord. He turned around and looked at her. "Are you ok?"

"Fine!" She said walking away over to the fridge. She yanked open the fridge and brought out some orange juice. She looked down at her body. You could almost see through her. She shut the door and poured the juice. She drank it quickly and made sure Naboo wasn't looking. She put the juice back quickly and shut the door.

'Ok, so you can't be seen in concentrated light. That's ok. Just make sure no one see's you!' She thought, looking down at her feet. She wasn't used to having friends, she realsied. Being feared and hunted her whole life and now living in Dlaston. She walked back into her room to get changed. She wore what she had wore the previous day and straightened her hair. She put on a thin layer of white powder and put on her eye liner, eye shadow and lipstick. She heard a thump, as if thunder had struck the house. She ran out into the hall way and say Vince on the floor.

"Bloody Hell what did you do?"

"Nothing! Why do I always get blamed for these things?" She knelt down by Vince, he was still breathing. Blade thought what she could do to wake him up.

"Vince if you wake up you can have my Nicky Clarke hair straighteners!" He sat up and Blade handed them over, she had another pair so she didn't really care. She looked over at Naboo her eyes quickly switching to pure black. He stared at her and shook his head. He walked over to his room and opened a book on female spirits. He flicked through until he found.

"Blade?" She was under Dark Angel. She was to be taken to the Board of Shamen so they could keep her captive until they saw her as safe and she could be let free. He got dressed and ran over to Bollo. "Wake up. We need to go to the Board of Shamen." Bollo woke up.

"Why?"

"Blade."

Blade and Vince sat on the sofa with mugs of tea. Vince had an ice-pack on his head from his loss of consciencess.

"So what happened?" Blade asked, suspecting something terrible.

"There's a sale on at Topshop. Loads of money off great things!" He said slightly dazed, Blade shook her head and hit him lightly. She saw Naboo and Bollo leave with a carpet.

"Alright we're going out.

"Ok, see you." Vince said. Blade looked away, her eyes wide and her mouth half shut half open. He knew what she was, she looked down at the mark on her wrist. It was a tear drop surrounded by thorns. She'd had it since she was a child and it had never faded. It was the mark of being a Dark Angel and she tried to keep it hidden, but to most people it was a tattoo. She felt a hand on her back, it was Naboo.

"Are you ok, you seem ill."

"I'm fine you and Bollo have fun." She said smiling, they walked downstairs and waved at them. Naboo looked away. He was going to turn in someone who was his friend. Someone who he loved. Because it was the Law of the Shamen. Him and Bollo sat on the carpet and flew off. Naboo put his head in his hands, strictly speaking they weren't even evil. They were in between and Blade hadn't shown any evidence of being evil. He didn't want to do this, but it was his sense of duty. A tear rolled down his cheek as they set off into the sky.

Blade, Vince and Howard were still in the shop. Howard was busy stock taking, Blade was writing in her diary and Vince was admiring his new Nicky Clarke hair straighteners that Blade had given him. Blade finished her diary entry and started to draw again. This time it was a girl being locked in a cage with a albino wizard, tall black man and a pink bladder laughing at her. She shook her head, she drew Naboo and Bollo there too. She quickly locked it up and picked up a copy of NME, it had Evanescence on the cover so she decied to check out that artical. She saw that they were thinking of releasing a new album she looked at the quote.

'I'm going to be killed by my friend.
Blade Burton'

She threw it down, Vince and Howard looked at her strangely. Vince walked over to her.

"Maybe you should go and lie down Blade. We'll look after the shop." She nodded and walked upstairs, she put her diary down and picked up a Romeo and Juliett script book.

'Naboolio Naboolio. Wherefore art thou Naboolio?' She shook her head and looked at it again.
'Romeo Romeo. Wherefore art thou Romeo?'

'I'm seeing things.' She thought to herself and went back to the script book.

"Naboo the Enigma. You have come to the board of Shamen for a reason. What is it?"

"Well, I..." Bollo nunged him and shook his head. "I found the Dark Angel." The board looked at him.

"Is this true?" Saboo asked him and Naboo nodded. Dennis spoke again.

"Then we must go forth and arrest this Dark being until she is good."

"Why do we have to arrest her. She's nice!" Naboo protested.

"You are not to have relationships with Dark beings Naboo!" Saboo argued back.

"This is an outrage. Naboo you should know this!" Tony Harrison came in backing up Saboo.

"I know but..."

"Go Naboo, we will speak further." Dennis said pointing at the exit. Naboo nodded and sped off on the Carpet. If he got there fast enough he could save her.

26/4/09
Dear Diary,
I'm sunk. Naboo has found out what I am and I found out what he was.
He has gone out to presumably tell the board so I will be arrested.
I have to be honest. I'm scared. Never have I been this close to Death.
Let's just hope he changed his mind.
Blade x
