Eliza (Book 1)

.+* Chapter 49 - April *+.

Celeste's View:
* You said you'd bring them back..?

* I will once we've gotten rid of people who can stop it.

* Eliza, I don't want to hurt anyone..

She glared at me. There was something about her that was different. Eliza never called me 'Princess'.

* Have you seen my sister anywhere?

She shook her head. I looked outside the windows and sighed. We were in one of our summer houses; Victoria texted me before saying she'd meet us here but...she hadn't.

I was worried...was she okay?

Eliza's View:
I used a spell to determine the other Eliza's location.

I wasted no time.

I teleported to her straight away and there she was...with Celeste.

* I-

* Do the wish, hurry!

* Celeste that's an evil version of me, don't believe h-

* I wish she would be frozen h til I finish the next wish.

I couldn't move.

* Celeste, don't do it!!

She began to play her flute, glaring at me. Soon enough, she finished playing.

* I wish code 749 would drown, falling deeper and deeper, unable to save themselves.

I felt everything change and I ended in the middle of - I'm guessing - the western Pacific Ocean.

* Oh no-

As I dropped into the ocean, I got out my phone and quickly sent a message to Emily and Tord. I was getting deeper and deeper, the water crushing me. I couldn't hold my breathe for long. I tried swimming up but the wish couldn't be altered.

At least you'll be with Grim, right~?

I couldn't breathe anymore. I felt a grab; I looked up to see Tord. He led me into a submarine and a gasp for air.

//* You can't swim?\\

I coughed up water.

* I...I can! Celeste made a wish to d-drown me-

'Why would she wish that upon you?'

* The..The e-evil one-

'Oh.'

I casted a spell to dry myself up and we went back to the surface.

They'll keep on making your life hell, Eliza.

Celeste's View:
I watched as the Eliza disappeared from sight.

* She'll die...

* She was an imposter, Celeste.

* You always taught me that violence was never the answer...

I looked at her and my eyes widened. Eliza never undid the spell to make her eye colour brown.

* Y-You're not E-Eliza-

Before I could do anything I was turned into stone. It was cold and dark.

I was all alone.

* Celeste..?

I turned around to see Victoria and ran to hug her tightly. She returned the hug, keeping me close.

* It's okay sis, I'm right..I'm right here..

She was shaking in fear.

* It won't stop...i-i-it's torture..
