"Oh my Gosh Toast!" I say running towards him. He falls to the ground and I catch him but he's heavy. Jess helps me set him the the ground. He isn't moving but is breathing.
The blood dripping down his arm catches my attention. Ghost grabs a bandage around his arm and I grab the knife. "You Guys didn't get him any knife, you got him one that paralyzes you if your cut!" I say reading the symbols. "That explains why he's not moving, so how do we un do it?! I don't have a spell unlike I do for my dagger!" Jess shouts.
"Well you guys got this from the 13th dimension right?! Let's go back and find the person who sold it to you!" I shout. How much can go wrong in one day?! "Okay but how do you know they'll talk when we find them?!" Jess shouts back. I make eyes turn whit," They will be demanded by a princess!" Jess nods and stays quiet.
"Ghost me and Jess are going to the 13th," I say. "Okay," he says looking up. "Let me grab my dagger!" She says heading upstairs. "Don't forget my bag!" He shouts to her. "Okay!" She yells to him.
Jess runs down the stairs with Ghosts bag around her shoulders. "Act like me!" He shouts as we run out. "I will!" She yells. We start running through the streets. I know the way to the portal. Jess doesn't so she's following me. I turn a few corners when we reach a dead end.
My eyes turn white and the portal opens. I grab Jess's hand and drag her behind me into the portal. I look around to see Im in my Palace. "Here," I say handing her a hat. "Why?" She asks. "Because, if anyone sees me with a human and tells the General, I can get into trouble."
She shakes her head and pulls over her hoodie, it hides her face pretty well. I nod and run out down the stairs. Thomas yells behind me," Marisbel?! Ghost?!" We keep running until we are outside. "Do you remember where it was?" I ask.
"Just down the path," she replies pointing to our left. We start walking and many of the people bow to me, ugh! I hate that. "Here she is," Jess says pointing only so I can see. I look at the cart filled with knifes and a woman stands trying to sell them.
I walk right up and the woman looks at me. "Princess! What are you doing here?!" She says panicking. "I've heard you sold a paralyzing knife to a couple of humans, without informing them what it does." I say bravely. She looks over to Jess.
She nods," May I see the knife?" I hand her the knife and she sighs. "I was going to tell them they grabbed the wrong one, but they already left. Here is the real one," she says handing it to me. "Well I may inform you another human was cut and is paralyzed. How do we undo it?" I ask.
She nods and holds up a package of elements. "Theses must be boiled and drunk in by the human to un-paralyze. But it is costly." She says. "How much?" I ask. "30 Lips," she says. "WOW! I'll give you 20 lips." I say negotiating. "I'm not sure you know the value of theses elements your highness." She says. "And I don't think you know what I can do," I say.
"25 deal or no deal, your highness," she says. "22 lips," I say. "Okay!" She says giving me the package. I give her the Lips and we go. "How much did you spend in our money?" Jess asks me. "370 dollars," I say. "Wow that much?!" She asks. "Why do you think I kept bargaining?" I say.
When we are back at the palace Thomas has his arms crossed. "Where did you go?" He asks. "Nowhere. Well bye!" I say running past him. I have Jess behind me and we jump through the portal. My eyes go normal and the portal closes. "Wow okay let's get back," Jess says pulling her hoodie off.
We run back to the HQ and we open the door. Toast is on the couch, Ghost next to him. "You got it?" He asks. "Yup, gotta boil it." I say running to the kitchen. I fill a pot up with water and place it on the counter. My eyes turn white, and I know exactly what to do.
I open the pouch and spill the stuff on the table. I grab some gilwall petals and throw them in. I put the pot on the stove. I wait until the petals dissolve and I grab some longtime Beans. Yes that what they are called. I crush them in my hands and sprinkle them into the pot. Next I grab some ruby gems and salt. I mix the until the rubs turn green.
I throw them into the pot. The I grab a small bottle of Liquid water. It's highly dangerous. Don't ask, in the 13th, it's not actually water. As soon as the liquid in the pot turns yellow, I gently pour it into the Pot. I cloud of blue smoke spits out and then when I clears up, it's complete.
I take the now blue liquid and pour it into a bottle. "Are you done?" Ghost asks as I walk in. I nod and kneel next to Toast. I take the bandage off his arm and look at the cut. I take a makeup brush and dip it in the potion and rub it over the cut. I hope this works.
