The Enchanted Chronicles

Chapter 6

The seconds felts like hours. Lavender sat there spell bounded, unable to utter anything. She was paralysed, her nerves aren't daring to move, her mouth feels so dry.

And moreover above everything else she was damn much afraid. Is this the end? Is she about to die?
Tylor was right, this place was dangerous, she feels like crying.. She should have stayed at home. Why should she have to behave like those stupids kids in the horror movies who don't listen to what they were told to do and snooping into dangerous things.

Lavender had grown up listening to the stories of witches from her grandmother, how they are so strong, how can they do magic with spells, and how they have special powers.. She even wished to meet a witch as a child, until she came to know about how they killed all of the remaining hybrids and those rumours about how they killed virgins as a sacrifice to attain more powers.

Lavender think she knows the reason for the Witch's arrival. She was about to get sacrificed. She intakes a huge breath and hold it there!

The witch was still smiling at her, Then all of a sudden she hugged Lavender tightly, like she was her long lost bestfriend, How Insane is this!

But somehow Lavender can feel the other's emotion from that hug, It seems that lady was indeed really happy to see her, like she is the solution for all of her problems. Strange indeed.

Even if she smell so good, Lavender felt uncomfortable being hugged by an unknown. But as strange as that, she is not afraid of this lady anymore. Surprisingly her hug feels home, the sudden thought made her disturbed, this lady is not her home! She lightly tap other's shoulder for the release.

When she was released from the hug the witch hold her face inside her cold hands and just examine her face like she was remembering something or someone.

Et fructus duos mundos.
Qui nata luna in longis auidum saturasset.
Thesauro in sacrificium.

The witch spell something in a foreign language which Lavender was unaware of. What does that means? But there were real tears in her eyes when she spells those.

I have finally found you my precious, Oh my goddess, I was so worried that I can't reach you before your 21st birthday!  She added like a whisper to herself, but loud enough that Lavender could hear.

What did she meant by that? Who is she? And how she knows my birthday? Lavender was even more confused now.

My name is Felicia, the witch continues warmly smiling at her with a special tenderness in her eyes, which somehow made her feel belonged and safe.

Who are you? How you knows me? Why are you here? What do you want from me?
Felicia's smile is gone now.. she looks almost anxious...?

Felicia was unimaginably a beautiful women with platinum blond hair that almost look white and light grey eyes..she had something like a flower crown on her head, Lavender takes her time on a close observation.

Am a witch!
Well duh! Lavender guessed that much.

A white witch! Felicia continues puzzling Lavender to the core..she was speechless. So ...? What's the difference?. And why are you telling me this? She thought to herself afraid to speak her mind.

Then she heared it, someone was coming on their way, probably the patrolling guards.

Then in a rush Felicia added,
I'll come back tomorrow! same place, same time and will answer all of your questions, just remember that,

You are not who you thought to be!

Then she was gone with a light, leaving Lavender bewildered...
A white witch! Why did she never hear about that?. Does it mean that there are black witches as well? And poetically if black is bad kind then white meant good? She really hoped so. Her mind is completely blank.

It all feels like a dream to her, Is it actually just happened? Or was that just her Imagination? Did she imagine all of that in her mind and make up stories.
She feels the creep veins moving from her legs, freeing her from their captive. Oh she almost forgot about that, but it proves that everything indeed happened for real. The white witch, spell, hug everything.

"You are not who you thought to be!"

That line is still haunting her. Who is she supposed to be then?

She was in a trance that she forgot about the person who interrupt her conversation with Felicia.

What are you doing over here at the midnight?

She turned to face the Icy cold stare that she is too familiar with. What a luck she has! Out of all of the people it has to be him.

Aiden!
