Finding My Harmony

The Daring Rescue (Part 2)(Chapter 7)

"THUD" my body smacked the ground. I lifted up my head slowly and spit out all the grass that I accidentally ate on contact. I quickly got up stumbling a bit right as my ankles gave way and I fell again. The three goddesses appeared before me, helping me up and dusting off my clothes as they smiled at me, ushering me to follow them. Oddly enough I did. They danced around and fed the animals, giggling and playing with them and each other. I felt the ultimate tranquil feeling and soon began to dance around and rejoice with them. I skipped around lovingly in the big open space and played with all the animals. The memory of the girl blinked in and out as the sky shifted from blue to black. I froze as I realized what was happening. They had me in a trance so that I wouldn't see the horrors that lied before me, and sadly for me I was breaking out of it.

I turned to face the sirens who were looking up at the changing skies, then slowly back at me, they were infuriated. I could feel their anger oddly enough. The green grass turned gray, and the creatures' forms were flashing from the animals they mimicked to their true selves. The sirens instantly began screaming as they charged towards me. 

"Instabilis!" I shouted as I covered my eyes and pointed my hand at them.

The sirens didn't stop, the only thing that differed was that their screams were now warped.

Their warped screams however, eventually made the place shake, stopping them in their paths. They gazed around in shock and worry to see their home crumbling as it fought with the illusion that they had made, and its original look. They struggled to change the tone of their screams back to how it originally was, but it was stuck in the warped scream.

"HA! That's what you get for messing with me!" I shouted at them in a cocky tone.

I know I shouldn't be so cocky, seeing as though I only know one attack spell but, it felt so good being on top right now.

I turned and scanned the area while I had a chance to see if there was anything out of place, and to my surprise there was. A massive dark and gloomy forest was a good way back. 

Okay, so a dark and gloomy forest wouldn't seem so out of place in a space like this but, it just didn't fit in like it was supposed to, and it looked like it was my only option too. 

I felt the compelling feeling once more, almost like Rosie was calling out to me. I followed the feeling and began walking towards the forest. As I walked I heard the creatures cry out, I spun around and looked at them as they all circled and then pounced on the sirens, attacking them, making their screams go from warped to agonizing. Without haste, I began running towards the forest, as I was halfway there one of the creatures must have seen me running, because it let out a horrifying howl signifying to the others to follow in suit behind me. I didn't dare look back at them to see how many were behind me but, I knew they were gaining on me because their heavy footsteps got louder with every step. I got through the entrance of the forest and lunged off to the side, hiding behind a tree, steadying my breath, as they ran past, frantically searching for me.

Quietly, as I caught my breath, a heavy breathing was heard in my left ear. I turned almost instantly to the sound and fell back.

"Hi," the voice said.

I inched back in fear trying to get away from whatever the heck that thing was.

"Please don't eat me. I'm not tasty!" I shouted out practically pleading with it.

"Eat you? Wooya not eat you, wooya help you" it said happily.

I stared at the creature as it slowly walked into the little stream of light that peaked between the trees. It was pink, and had soft fluffy hair that mimicked a poodle, horns like an antelope's, and big blue doe eyes. It was about three feet tall, and had tiny hands and feet.
