Dragon's curse

chapter twenty six

I finally slept in a comfy bed for the first time but here is the embarrassing part, I think I prefer the ground more than the bed. Me and Jeff get our own bedrooms so we don't have to worry about sharing a bed thank god, that would have been my most embarrassing moment in my life if that happened but I am not saying I would mind if that did happen. After Jeff is fully healed up, we will be going to the nearest town which for some reason is called Frog Lake Villa. The only thing I know about this town is that they sell frogs for food and their food is very popular. It has only been a week and Jeff’s face does not look as beaten up like it did when we first arrived.

“Ash… come to me Ash. Wake up Ash!” a voice called out softly for a moment but started to sound more angry the second. 

Ash stood in what looked to be a void of darkness and it was as if nothing was holding her but she still was able to stand. 

Ash asked nervously, “Who are you?”

“You are mine!” yelled the voice in anger

Suddenly, Ash woke up from a cold sweat as she breathed heavily as if she was being suffocated. She sat in her bed for a few moments to calm herself, once she had calmed herself down from the bad dream that she had just drempt, Ash got up from her soft bed that had there sheets laying nicely as she fixed her bed until it looked like she had never slept in the bed at all. After she was finished fixing her bed, Ash walked out of her room and down the hall to Jeff's room. The door was shut as if the door was saying Jeff was asleep and don’t disturb. Ash slowly and quietly opened the door to see Jeff sound asleep in his bed, she slowly closed the door as she tried not to wake him up from his slumber. As she walked past the fourth door, the floor boars squeaked as she walked over them. Ash quickly walked over to the kitchen to make herself a cup of coffee, she walked over to one of the cabinets and opened the cabinet door to see that there were over ten different kettles. She sighed as Ash grabbed a whit kettle. Ash then closed the cabinet door and walked over to the sinc. She turned on the faucet while removing the lid from the kettle and placed it under the high stream of water. Once the kettle was filled up, she quickly turned off the water facet and walked over to the stove with the lid in her other hand. She placed the kettle on one of the stove burners and placed the lid on the kettle while turning on  one of the knobs. Instantly, the stove burner lit up and started boiling the water slowly, Ash then walked over to another cabinet to pull out the dried coffee beans. After ten minutes, the kettle went off, Ash grabbed the kettle from the burne and placed it on the burner next to it while putting three scoops of dried coffee beans into the kettle. She quickly placed her hands onto the metal part of the kettle that was still hot to the touch. Ash sighed in relief as the warmth from the kettle filled her hands and immediately thought to herself, I wish my hands were normal like they were before the curse but all well, at least I can't burn myself anymore like I used to.

Ash chanted in latin, “Heat and mix, appear coffee.”

For a moment nothing happened but after a few more minutes, the metil on the kettle turned red for a few moments before going back to a silver color. Ash then pulled out a small mug from one of the cuberts that sat in front of her, she slowly poured herself a cup of coffee and walked over to the living room. Ash then sat down on the couch and looked out the window on her right side. Snow slowly drifted to the ground as time passed by slowly, the chill air surrounded the house and the fireplace was lit up by the warm fire. The old door creaked as Electro slowly exited the door to his room while shutting it behind them. The door clicked as it shut, he then walked over to the living room to see Ash sipping a cup of coffee that had steam rising  as she sat back while relaxing.

Electro asked  as he walked over from behind the couch, “I thought you would still be asleep, is there any coffee left?

Ash quickly replied “Yea, there is a kettle with some fresh coffee brewed by a spell that I chanted.”
