Hey guys! I know, you want to kill me for not updating in like two months, huge big sorry for all of you. I really did not mean to let you guys down. I changed the story's title in case you haven't notice.
So, after the apology done, let's take a look about what happened in those three chapters (just so you won't have to go back and read the other chappies):
Shun and Dan, the best assassination team in Valdolit, get an assignment to kill a young lady living in the Dark palace in Goldzark; after their king received an info from a witch called Seera (who is revealed to be Runo's aunt later). Back on earth, the three newly graduated witches get their first mission from the head witch. But their mission is to get the girl back to the wizard's council located in the ruling planet of Zora.
So I guess that's all what had happened last time. So just to tell you that I discovered yesterday (while checking the story's plot) that you'll not get the full picture of this story, until like 8 more chapters. I found out that there are lots of twists and turns in this story.
Also, I am a huge cliffhanger lover (I think you already know, lol XD) so you will see almost a cliffhanger each chapter. Sorry about that, but I can't help it, its fun torturing you guys, Muahahahaha (A.K.A Evil laugh). Oh and there will be like 11 Oc's or so, if you wish to use them or the names of the planets and worlds mentioned, you just have to ask.
And because I keep my promises and because I liked your reviews I will tell you the birthdays of the brawlers. But I do remind you that I can't remember the site, but I'm sure of the info.

After all this, let's FINALLY go on with the story.
Disclaimer: I own nothing. (You know that too.)
Chapter 4:
Another chapter of my life.
A bird, with wonderful colored feathers, standing on a branch hanging from the ceiling of his cage; staring at the golden bars. Sometimes he would jump over to the little box, which contains food, and eat some of the delicious seeds provided. Or he would take a sip from the crystallized water.
But…Sadness would always show in his little eyes.
A butterfly rooming the place, showing her glittery wings full with glamorous colors. Flying, moving from rose to rose as she was present in a sea of beautiful flowers. Despite her freedom to fly; she was alone. With no one around to share and enjoy the peaceful paradise she was in with her.
That was her; a combination of the prisoned bird and the lone butterfly. She was locked in the highest tower of the Dark palace.
Her wing in the tower was a place any girl would love to stay in. the wonderful bed, made of the finest wood in the kingdom; with soft, warm blankets and completed with billows stuffed with delicate feathers.
The silky, pretty curtains playing and moving whenever wind entered the room. Her clothes so many, that, sometimes, her closet looks like it was about to explode.
A beautiful vanity full of whatever a girl might needs and, also present in her room, a small library filled with books of every kind.
But still…something always seemed to be missing…
…
…
A sigh would always escape her mouth, whenever she looked outside the window of her suite. She always wished the scene would change, but it's the same all the time. The sky, dark with Smokey clouds. The ground with its hot rocks, and volcanic activities occurring once in a while.
She would gently stroke her orange strands away from her face. She would want to see the background and imagine it was something else. Blue sky, with fluffy clouds like cotton floating happily over the land, bringing joy to any child watching them cross by. Green areas with lots of trees to hide in their shadows and pure water forming a river, flowing through the place, with fish jumping every now and then.
A place looks like the one she lived in, and was separated from a long while ago.
…
She slowly got up from her bed and made her way towards the shelves of her library; upon finishing a book she was reading. Books were the only entertainment available.
She returned the book to its place, between two other ones. She did memorize the places of her books, as she read them all many times, just as she memorized every other thing around her, the spider webs, which cover every corner. Those webs which sometimes turn into her little fun; watching spiders building each string and keep it into complete harmony with the others. And the tiny holes in the walls, used by mice to enter and steal some food chumps from the floor.
Gracefully, she returned back to her bed, and threw herself on it. Her plans of getting some rest were cut short by a knock on her door. After giving the permission for the entrance of her host, who is the only one, who knocks her door. The door was slightly opened at first, then it was completely opened revealing a small creature, with long pointy ears and red piercing eyes, wearing a black cloth.
"Ms. I brought your lunch." the figure said, his voice had a robotic tone in it. He was shaking, out of fear. Terrified as he was, he continued to move the cart closer and closer to the girl, who flashed a sweet smile in his direction.
When he was about to reach the bed, the cart stumbled on a book. The cart, along the figure and the food trays, dropped to the ground. The young lady reached for the Golok* to get him up. Her kind behavior was faced with a scared, shacking frame. The creature crawled up into a ball, placing both of his hands on his head.
She withdrew her hand, taken back by what he said.
"Please…Don't hurt me…I did not mean to spoil your meal!" was his quest.
"I-I wasn't going to hurt you at all! I was…" she tried to explain, but he didn't seem to hear her.
"Spare my life, spare my life, I beg you." He continued.
…
"Spare me…I've got a family!"
…
"Please"
…
She saw no way out of this situation, so she let out in a low voice.
"Your life has been spared."
"Thank you my lady! And I will bring a new lunch for you," he said getting up, making his way to the door.
"It's okay, I lost my appetite." She stated putting her head down in disappointment.
"One other thing my lady. Gilda said that a group of witches will come to take you today." He said and closed the door behind him.
Surge of happiness lighted her lonely heart up. She felt a feeling, one she hasn't felt in a while. Seeing all this enthusiasm her mistress had, a small glowing fairy came up to her, leaving the silver bracelet where she belonged.
"What's with all the excitement, Alice?" she asked, happy to see Alice's long- lost- true- smile. Alice kept turning around her self, mumbling her goodbyes to every thing around her.
"I will leave this place, after all these years. I will finally see the outside world again, Demity!" she said to her little friend.
"I will not be seen as a monster. But only as the true me. Even…even if it was for a short time," She said, getting her normal self back. Demity gave her cheek a little hug. She hugged her guardian fairy with her hand back.
"A new story begins…"
The two girls stared lazily at their leader. She was holding the book of species in her hand, while pacing around, searching the pages of her book to find the information required.
"Aha, found it!" Runo yelled, digging her finger deep in the book. The other two girls got up from the couch, to see what she had found.
"Voldons." She began reading the title of the page. "It is the name of the people of Valdolit. A world which could be reached through gate number 98. Voldons are known for their strength and ability to use any kind of weapons to defeat their enemy. It is said that Voldons and wizards have the same origin, which is why they look the same. However, unlike the wizards, they are not able to use magic. Their magic was gone after the great explosion. Spells has no affect on them." Runo finished reading the little amount of things known about them.
"But…if magic has no affect on them, then how we are going to beat the Voldons?" Julie asked. Runo shock her head in an 'I don't know' gesture. But, told her team to get packed.
"Runo, we should be going. I bet the Voldons are half way there!" Miono said, rushing the other two girls.
"I'm ready, but we need a gate." Julie stated, putting a finger on her lips.
"Don't worry guys, my mom placed a gate in the attic so she can transport herself without my father knowing." She said motioning the girls to follow her to one of the corners of the attic.
"You haven't told your father that you're wizards, yet?" Miono asked raising her medal as did Runo and Julie.
"My mom is afraid of his reaction," Runo said, letting out a sigh. "But let's forget about that now. Katarka**" she let out a spell. A blue circle appeared in front of the girls, they stepped in and disappeared as well as the gate.
The young witches stared in awe at the palace beneath them, while standing on the mountain's peak. They gazed around the place. They did have their fears, but they decided to go on.
"Broom!" they shouted in unity. Three old fashioned wooden brooms appeared right in front of the girls. They sat on them and flew down to where the castle was.
They stopped appropriately at the front of the big silver door. Even after knocking many times on the door, they still didn't hear a reply. Miono, seeing it was taking a long time muttered a spell, which opened the huge doors.
The team walked in, more like flew in sitting on their brooms. But, the minute they were all in, the brooms disappeared beneath them, making the witches fall on their butts!
"Ouch, that hurts!" Julie whined getting up with Runo and Miono.
"What is that horrible noise? How did you come in here?" a small figure questioned, making its way to the –in pain- girls.
"Sorry to barge in, our friend here could not wait." Runo said glaring at Miono, who crossed her arms and puffed her cheeks in response.
"Are you the witches of Verona, the head witch?" The Golok questioned. They nodded.
"Our savers are here! Nice to meet you, I'm Gilda the governor of the Dark palace. You may take the girl, she's upstairs in the tower." She said, with a smile creeping on her full of wrinkles face.
Runo and the girls felt scared a little. What could this girl look like? Is she that bad? They questioned themselves, but quickly shrugged it off. And followed Gilda to where the stairs where.
"Aren't you coming with us?" They asked after being left alone.
"She's your problem now." Gilda stated coldly and disappeared from sight.
They walked up the stairs, getting more tiered after each step. Why does she have to be in the highest tower? And why doesn't their magic works in here? The questions were actually answered earlier, the answer only made them fear the girl even more.
"To prevent her powers from hurting us, to forbid her from running away,"
…
…
They stopped in front of, yet, another door. Before they could even knock, the door was opened, revealing a fair orange haired young woman. She stood calmly in the door way a sweet smile forming on her face.
"Hi," she greeted softly.
"Hey, umm… I'm-" Runo started, but was cut short by Alice.
"Runo, Miono and Julie. Nice to meet you all," She said. They all eyed her confused.
"But…how?"
"I know things, I'm Alice" she told them her name and quickly grabbed the girls' arms and began running down the stairs, happiness and excitement showing on her expressions. But… who could blame her for wanting to get out of this place.
"Face it man, we're lost!" Shun said, throwing his hands in the air, surrendering.
"No, we're not lost! If we were, we would have found my knife!" His brown headed friend protested. Shun rolled his eyes and pointed to a rock, where Dan's knife was put on top of it.
"Oh no, we will die!" Dan knelt to the ground tears forming in his eyes. "You weak boy, get up on your feet!" a feminine voice spoke, which belonged to a small fairy dressed in a knee length red dress.
"But Nigity, I don't know where to go!" Dan said it like a five year old boy talking to his mother.
"Easy on the boy," another girlish voice spoke up. It was Shun's guardian fairy, Sarity.
"He is my master, not yours!"
"You are not helping him!"
"Yes I am!"
"No you're not!"
"Enough of that, get back into your pearls, both of you!" Shun had had enough of their argument. The fairies did as told and disappeared into the two pearls on both of their master's bracelets.
"We must find that palace, and kill those wizards!" Shun stated, his hand turning into a fist. It was the first time Dan had seen him like that.
"Wow, never saw you se eager to kill someone," Dan said. But he exactly knew why, there is an old revenge between them and his dear friend.
"Sovarna cal shalkoma turnad marino says."*** Shun muttered to himself. A strange feeling made his way to his heart.
"Maybe we should go back to where Liria is, to get a look fr-" Dan was not able to continue his sentence, upon seeing Shun walking like a controlled person, his eyes were glowing green.
"I sense them, they are near." Was the only reply Shun said to Dan when he asked about his direction. Knowing that Shun's feeling normally never fails, Dan followed close by.
"Yes, walk to them and soon my plan will work," A male voice was heard in the place. He adjusted his seat, while dipping his hand in the little pond, where the faces of the six teenagers appeared. But the clear vision was missed up by the ripples of the water.
"You are so evil!" a feminine sound appeared from behind.
"Thank you, I already know," He said with a maniac laugh.
"Dark lord, they will stop you,"
"I don't think so Verona, my dear. I will get rid of them first, and then I will get rid of you,"
"You are lying to yourself, you know you need me," The witch said getting out of the fog that filled the place.
"For now…" he stated coldly and switched his sight to witness the events of the two teams' meeting.
