Oh, Ophelia | C. De Vil

Twelve; Rescue plan

OPHELIA blinked and looked up, confused. "What happened?" she asked. "Where are the others?"

Carlos looked around. "I don't know," He muttered. "I thought Mal cast the charm over all of us."

"I couldn't," Mal said. "I tried to, but it was too late."

"It's not your fault, M", Evie said soothingly.

" Does this mean my best friend and siblings are going to be brainwashed?" Ophelia asked, tears filling her eyes.

"We'll save them, Lia." Jay said. "I promise."

"We need a rescue plan." Mal said, determined to save them.

"Write it down and copy it, Mal. It'll be easier to remembered it if we have a copy each of the plan." Evie said, passing Mal some paper and a pen from her bag.

"Thanks, E." Mal muttered. She had a thoughtful expression on her face. A few minutes later, her face lit up and she started writing something down on the paper.

Mal muttered a spell under her breath once she was done writing, and the paper multiplied. There were four more copies of the plan.

"Take one each," Mal said. "Read it and memorize it."

Ophelia took a copy and read it. Mal had written, in bold letters, the title;

MAL MOOR'S RESCUE PLAN!

Under it was written the steps of the plan.

"Mal," Ophelia said. "This is great and all, but tgere are two problems. 1) I can't memorise it. And 2) I can't read your fancy-smancy handwriting."

"Step 1 is for me to create a spell that can allow us to look like someone else - in this case, guards - and mix it with a potion of yours. There is a potion for that right?"

"Yeah. The change potion."

"Great! So step two, we drink the potion that has been tampered with the spell and we go to Adam's school. Since we'll be looking like guards, no one will know." Mal explained.

"And the third step, we pretend we're guards at tge school and go find the others. If the girls and boys are separated, then we'll split up and meet somewhere we all agree on."

"And step 4, we rescue them, even if we have to use violence." Mal said. "And the final step, I teleport us all to the hide-out me, Evie, Jay and Carlos stayed in. Got it?"

"Yeah!" Ophelia said, unsure whether or not it would work.

"Let's do this," Mal said.

"Yeah!" "Let's do this!" "Adam won't know what's hit him!" "Rescue mission in action!"
