SCENE CHANGE, ANOTHER REALM
On the other side of it stood a small Village scattered through out a large hill with a large central building with it roof shaped like a large pink pearl. Outside the building in front of the closed door is a giant toad dressed in purple wizard's garb, and before him are 2 more waiting to get free magic powers : a pair of Identical trolls, 1 male 1 female, twins most probably, dressed in blue/red/black and no older then 15-16.
Walter: *Looks at his watch, then Growls* We've been waiting for over 2 hours wizard guy, and what for. Just give us are magic powers already.
Bufo: *shrinks in fear and expands his neck. Tadpoles emerge...*
Twin Trolls: *Recoils in disgust at the sight*
Bufo:... Patience young ones, one more is to join us very soon, i will give you all what you ask as soon as they arrive.
Wendy: *Crosses her arms* Well who ever it is better be here soon, my brother and i don't have all day you know.
Bufo: *Sees a portal opening behind them* Worry no more my dear, here comes are third inspiring wizard right now.
Walter and Wendy turned to the portal to see a human child with dark curly hair and wearing big glasses stepping out of it.
Child Mirabel: *Looks around the place* Well it looks pretty magical, and not very dangerous. *Sees Bufo, Walter and Wendy and walks towards them* Excuse me, is this were i can acquire the free magic powers?
Bufo: Yes in deed, welcome child. We are Bufo, your host and teacher of which ever magic power you desire to acquire.
Child Mirabel: *Smiles and takes the Toad wizard's hand to shake* It's a pleasure to meet you Senor Bufo.
The twin trolls just look at the 10 year old girl and scowl.
Wendy: Is this suppose to be a Joke? She's only 10 years old.
Bufo: The Age, Gender and Species of are ''customers'' matter's not, anyone who desires free magic power are welcome here *Glares at the twins* especially those who show respect to the mighty wizard that gives them away.
Walter and Wendy just shrugged indifferently and said no more as they looked away, secretly hoping they didn't just blow their chances away at becoming wizards.
Bufo: *Lets go of Mirabel's hand and address all 3 youths, but one tadpole is lagging behind as they talk* Now then... you wish to be inducted into the ancient order of— *Only one tadpole speaking* Dang it, Leonard! If we don't talk at the same time, nobody can understand us!
Leonard: Sorry... geez...
Bufo: *All speaking simultaneously now* Ahem... as we were saying... You are here because you want free wizard powers right?... Powers like... *Creating mystical energy blasts from the host's hands* these!
Child Mirabel: *Excitedly Giggles* Yes! We definitively want 'em.
Wendy: *Smirks* Whole reason why were here, so fork in the stuff.
Walter: And there better be something cooler in it than those weak sparks of yours.
Bufo:*Puts his sparking hands down with a scowl towards Walter, then slowly retreats to the building Mysteriously* Then follow 3 youths followed the weird toad wizard inside. Mirabel had a more exited pep to her step while the Twin trolls were walking normally, their faces neutral. But that soon changed when they finally entered a large chamber.
Walter: Wow!
Wendy:*Gasp in awe*
Child Mirabel: *Wide eye* Dios mío
Bufo: Behold the Grand Hall of Wizardry! *Scene pans to show wizard students training.* This is where young potentials train to become Ultimate Wizards! Most are not ready for the responsibility that comes with it tho.
Wendy: *Smirks, then steps forward* If your're looking for Ultimate Wizard material, look no further than me, a responsible, talented young lady.
Walter:Yeah! So am I!
Wendy: *Turns to scowl at her brother* No your not!
Walter: Sure i am... I mean i'm no young lady, but i'm pretty talented and responsible.
Wendy: *Rolls her eyes* Oh pleaaaaase brother. You have about as much talent and sense of responsibility then a Broomstick.
Walter: *Gasp at his sister's insult, then glares at her* Oh Yeah, well if i'm like a broomstick then so are you, you're my twin.
Bufo: *Raises his hands*Young ones, young ones please. As we advance towards the higher magics later, we shell so if you're indeed responsible enough to become Ultimate Wizards. *Then turns to Mirabel* But what about you child? Do you believe yourself responsible enough to become an Ultimate Wizard?
Child Mirabel: *Thinks about it for a few seconds, then shakes her hand* I don't think so Senor Bufo, i'm only 10. Maybe when i'm older i can try, but right now i just want to learn magic to improve the way i'm living.
Bufo: *Nods in approval* A wise and very mature response for one so young. We shell happily await your possible return when you're ready to take that step. *Conjures 3 Dark purple cloaks* And now I bestow upon you these wizard cloaks!
Child Mirabel: *Grabs her robe and puts it on. Giggling as the fabric felt a bit ticklish*
Walter: *Grabs his robe* Hey! This is a dress!
Wendy: *Puts on hers* Oh don't be a baby brother, if its what it takes to gain magic powers, then just put it on.
Walter: FINE! *He puts on the robe, but stuffs the bottom of the cloak into his pants* At least this way I won't be embarrassed!
Bufo: Fine, fine. Now for every power that you accrue, *Creating star badges on his cloak* you shall receive a star badge like these. * Then Points to big star at the center* This final star betokens the rank of Ultimate Wizard! Walter and Wendy gasp in awe at the big star while Mirabel just smile at how pretty it looks.
Child Mirabel: 'One day, maybe'
Wendy:*Smirks arrogantly at her brother* Mark my word, Brother. I shall have that final star! *Turns to Bufo* Where do we start?!
Bufo:Level 1— Petaloúdakinesis
Child Mirabel: Yeah! Petaloúdakinesis! *Calms herself and thinks a bit confused* Heu, Mister Bufo, what is Petaloúdakinesis?
Bufo: You shell see for yourself child. To receive this power, you must first... *Makes 3 chrysalis appear* eat these Chrysalis, without damaging them with you're teeth. *He gives the Chrysalis to Mirabel, Wendy and Walter.*
Wendy: Wait? Chrysalis. *Scowls* but that's what caterpillars wrap around their gross green bodies *Throws it away and sticks her tongue out in disgust* This is so gross!
Walter: *Also throws the Chrysalis away* Yeah Man, we can't eat this!
Mirabel wasn't to convinced of this either, but if it's what it takes...
Child Mirabel: *Pulls her head back and holds the chrysalis over her mouth, slowly putting it in her mouth and letting it slide down windpip, trying to relax her throat as much as possible. When it went down enough, she swallowed as hard as she could* Euuuuuh... Done.
A star suddenly appears on Mirabel's cloak.
Child Mirabel: * Sees it and smiles while raising her arms* I HAVE PETALOUDAKINESIS! * Tries to use her new power, but nothing seems to be happening* Hey, nothing happened! This is a total ripoff! Senor Bufo! You tricked me! Stupid power doesn't even work!
Bufo: *Puts his hand on Mirabel's shoulder* Calm yourself child. I assure you that you are using Petaloúdakinesis. Just look above you...
Out of nowhere, about 4 of 5 butterflies with different colored wings were flying down to them. 1 with Yellow wings landed on Mirabel's finger.
Child Mirabel: *looks at the little butterfly closely* I summoned it and its friends? So... I have—
Bufo: Yes. Petaloúdakinesis is the power to control all Butterflies. You can also read their emotions. For instance, the one are your finger is very unhappy in his marriage.
Walter: Well, that's... one of the lamest powers i've ever seen.
Wendy: One of the Lamest? try THE lamest, what are we suppose to do with that?
Child Mirabel: *While the yellow butterfly is still on her finger* Well... When you fight a monster you can command butterflies to fly in its face to distract it from attacking you. *Pets the Butterfly's head* Or if you want to start a garden, they can help keep the flowers healthy, or...
Wendy: *Glares at Mirabel* Kid, we can care less about all that, so zip it. *Turns to Bufo* and you, move on with the magic lessons, and give us something more useful than this would ya.
Bufo: *Scowls at the rude girl, but nods* Very well, let us move on. *Turns to Mirabel* Sense you have completed level 1 first, you get to make a choice: We can move on to Level 2 now, or you can learn the sub-ability of Petaloúdakinesis- Petaloumorphesis.
Child Mirabel: *Claps her hands with a large smile* Oh, Oh, Oh What's that?
Bufo: It is the power to shapeshift into a butterfly, of any size you may desire.
That got Mirabel jumping like a overjoyed kangaroo. But the twins were not impressed
Wendy: Euh, laaaaame, better choose to move on kid, you don't need anymore lameoid magic.
Bufo: Silence Troll, the child has completed level one first, she must be the one to choose. *Looks back at Mirabel* Your choice child?
Child Mirabel: I choose... To learn Petaloumorphesis.
Walter & Wendy: *Groals and growns in disappointment and annoyance*
Bufo: Very Well *Conjures a Branding iron, with the tip already red hot* to gain the power of Petaloumorphesis, i must mark you tummy with this enchanted Branding Iron, which will cause the chrysalis in your stomach to hatch and fuse with your being, giving you its form to turn into.
Child Mirabel: *Looks at the iron nervously while wrapping her hands around her stomach* Euuuh, d-do i real-ly have to-o.
Bufo: It is the only way.
Wendy: *Mocking* What's wrong brat, afraid of a small burn on your tummy.
Walter: *Laughs at Mirabel's nervousness*
Child Mirabel: *Glares at the twins, before lifting her shirt up* hazlo (Do it).
What follows after is a blood curling scream coming out of the girl after the iron touched her flesh, after which she curled into a ball for a few minutes from the pain, before uncurling and getting up with Bufo's help. Seconds later, Mira felt movement in her tummy and the Butterfly shaped brand began to glow and move like a real butterfly before disappearing into her body, and finally a golden light covered her whole body and turned her into a tiny little yellow butterfly.
Child Mirabel: *Looks at herself, then flies around excitedly* I did it, i did it *In a small, squeaky voice*
Bufo: *Claps in his enthusiastically* Yes, yes, well done child. Given time and practice, you'll learn to change the size of your new butterfly form, until you can make it big enough to carry others on your back, but that is something for another time. We shell next focus on turning you back into a human child, all you have to do is picture your true form in your mind and let the magic do the rest.
Mirabel did just that eyes closed, and seconds later she was a 10 year old human girl once more... Well, almost, he butterfly antennas were still there, causing the Twin trolls to snicker at the girl once more and for Mirabel to try and swap away the antenna that were now getting in her face.
Bufo: *Grabs her Antennas* Let me child *His hands glow and he pushes the antennas gently back into her head* That to will be resolved with practice, now let us move on to Level 2: Invisibility *Demonstrates this by making himself disappear for a second, then reappear to everyone's delight*
Wendy: *Smirks* Now that's useful magic.
Bufo: *Then makes blindfolds appear over Wendy, Walter and Mirabel's eyes* You can't see through those, right?
Child Mirabel: Nope
Wendy: Not at all.
Walter: *Shakes his head*
Bufo: Good, to become unseen by others, you must first identify what you yourself cannot see, using only your senses of touch and smell. Now come place your hands into *Making 3 bowls appear on a table* one of these bowls, and tell me what they contain, without removing your blindfolds.
The 3 wobbled to the bowls, careful not to knock something over, and passed their hands over the table until they touched a bowl and dug their hands in them. In Mirabel's bowl, she felt many pieces of something hard passing between her fingers and scratching her palms a bit. The pieces felt to large to be sand grains, pebbles maybe? No, she played with pebbles before and those didn't feel nearly as hard as that. She then took a handful of the mystery bits to her nose and discovered they smelled a bit like meat.
Child Mirabel: I say, this is some kind of dried meat *Smells again and gasp with a smile* Its Bacon Bits *Blindfolds disappear and a second star appears on her robe before her new invisibility power activates*.
Bufo: Well done. You have once again succeeded first.
While Mirabel was jumping around with joy, playing with her new power on and off, a frustrated Wendy was doubling her efforts to get the magic herself. The contains of her bowl felt bigger than bits, round and slimy, she would have confused them with eyeballs if not for the fruity smell that accompanies them.
Wendy: I would sayyyyyy, Peeled Grapes? *Her blindfold disappears and a star appears on her robes*
Bufo: *Claps his hands at Wendy* Well done child, you've passed your first trial.
Wendy: *Laughs sinisterly* Oh yeah, i'm the best *tests out her new power of Invisibility, then turns to her twin* Yo Walter, hurry up so we can move to level 3.
Walter: 1 minute sis. *Continues the squeeze at the mushy stuff he's been trying to identify this whole time* I sayyyyyy, mashed potatoes? *His blindfold disappears and a star appears on his robes*
Bufo: Actually it's mashed sweet potatoes, but your answer is close enough. Congratulations to you all for passing level 2.
The 3 wizards-to-be cheered collectively before moving on. What follows is a montage starting at Level 3, where Mirabel and and the troll twins must undo a complicated knot. This time, Wendy was the one to succeed first, followed by Mirabel, then Walter
Bufo: Excellent. All 3 are then rewarded with their third stars and the power to create a magic rope. Mirabel's rope was colored Yellow/Gold while the twins ropes were both night black. Skipping on to Level 8, Mirabel and and the troll twins raced up a tree of thick foliage to locate and pick one of only 3 apples in that tree. Both twins were the first to climb down with their prize, fallowed a few moments later by disheveled Mirabel who had leaves and twigs in her hair.
Bufo: Well done.
The 3 are rewarded with another star each, and the power to grow plants. Mirabel magically made a blueberry bush appear to snack on while removing the leaves and twigs from her hair. On the next challenge, the trio played the ''High Striker'', which Walter got the highest score, but they all were rewarded with a star and the power to create a magic hammer.
On the next challenge, everyone had to apply make up on their faces to make themselves look unrecognizable and are rewarded with a star and the Power of Glamour. On the next challenge, all 3 balance tilted chairs on their nose to gain the power of Telekinesis. On Level 15, Wendy is rewarded with Pitch Black wings. On Level 27, Mirabel is rewarded with a Magic Golden Sword. On Level 31, all 3 are granted the power to create magical lightning from their hands. They laugh and cheer as they blast magic sparks into the night sky. The montage ends at level 99, where all 3 had endure having their bodies being pilfered by magical tennis balls to gain the power to Heal their own ball induced injuries.
Wendy: All we're missing now is the big star! You ready to complete the set, Brother?
Walter: You bet sis. What about you brat?
Child Mirabel: Nah, I'm good.
Wendy: *Confused* Hun?! You want to stop so close to the finish line? *Laughs along with Walter* You really have no ambition brat.
Child Mirabel: *Glares at the twins* It has nothing to do with ambition... I've just got everything I need. A way to grow my own food, weapons i can conjure up with a snap of my fingers... and I just learned the best spell of all!
Walter: What's that?
Child Mirabel: *Shifts into a butterfly and floats happily at her spot*.
Wendy: *Stares at Butterfly Mirabel for a seconds, then bursts out laughing along with Walter* What a lame-o you are kid.
Child Mirabel: *Shifts back to a human while glaring at the twins* Pff, whatever *Walks to Bufo* Senor Bufo, i'll be leaving now, *Curtseys at the giant Toad* gracias for teaching me all of these wonderful magical powers.
Bufo: The pleasure was all mine child. Another portal will await for you outside to take you home, have a safe journey back.
Mirabel thanks the wizard one final time before walking out the main entrance door to the portal that will take her back home.
Bufo: Now then, i believe you wish to gain the final star. As you wish, but to tell true, the last power is not free.
Wendy: Wha? You can't do this to us!
Walter: *Shows his empty pockets in a panic* We've got no money!
Bufo: No, no cash. For the final star, you both must take the pledge of ultimate responsibility.
Wendy: That's it? *Nonchalantly* Well okay, we'll take that pledge.
Bufo: Are you sure? Perhaps you are not sufficiently familiar with-
Wendy: We are ready!
Bufo: Well, there may be ramifications that you cannot-
Walter: *Impatiently* Just let us take that pledge, man!
Bufo: My word, I've never met one so irresponsibly responsible, let alone 2. Very well, then. You must both... grasp my hands.
Wendy & Walter: *Looked at each other confused, but did as told. Both shone with a glorious light and screams.*
