Chapter 25

The room glitched like her old phone used to do before the phone ended up dying on her for good.

"What happened?" Violet demanded to know.

"Mother took out Golden Eyes," Ivy said.

Violet knows that Ivy tried to pulled of the cold and indifferent person that she was, but Violet knew there was a hint of fear in her voice. The room glitched around her again.

"Magic Force base has been covered up by Golden Eyes magic for generations. If he's gone than you know what happens to the base right?" Violet asked.

She remembered reading about it in her early days, but at the time she didn't think Golden Eyes was actually real. She didn't think any of the spirits of magic we're real just a story to explained where magic came from. She always thought the painting of golden eyes on that wall was just someone choice.

"You need to untied us."

"Why?" the girl snapped.

"Because if you don't, we will die."

"My mother will be furious."

The room glitched again. "Your mother doesn't even let you call her that," Jerry pointed out.

"Come on Ivy. Please."

"How do you know my name?" Ivy demanded as the room glitched again.

"Ivy Hawthorne and Iris Hawthorne are people too and they matter. There not just Trouble Times their two girls with a name and right now both of them will die here."

"My mother will come back and find me," Ivy said. There were tears in her eyes.

"Your mother not coming back and you know that Ivy. Please, let us go and we can go get your sister and make a run for it."

Ivy eyes narrowed, but she nodded her head and a zap of yellow light flashed around the rope breaking the rope and setting the two cousins free. The base glitched again and Violet almost lost her footing. She picked Jerry up of the ground who had fallen onto the floor. Grabbed Ivy and tossed the girl over her shoulders and they ran out of the room.

"Argh." Iris screamed.

"Iris," Violet said. "Where are you?"

"There," Jerry said. He pointed down the hallway where Iris was seen.

It might be dark inside the base, but every time the base glitched light would returning showing Violet what Jerry had seen.

"I'm sinking," Iris said.

"Sinking?" Ivy questioned.

Violet and Jerry arrived to noticed Iris was indeed sinking. It was as if she was sinking in quick sand.

"What's going on?"

"Golden Eyes magic kept the base together," Violet said.

"But mother killed him." Iris eyes widen as the base glitched. "Oh, that's why I'm sinking then."

"Come on," Jerry said.

He plucked Iris out of the quick sand and threw her over his shoulders. The two cousins made a dash for the existed with the twins on their shoulders. Every door they ran into the twins used their magic to zap it away and soon the two cousins with the twins on their shoulders jumped out of the wall and landed on the ground.

As Violet head turned, she realized where she was.

She was at Newcastle and the wall she had just jumped out of was the wall she would use all the time.
