I rushed into the guest room and saw Zian holding her left eye while screaming in pain

"What happened!?" I asked Stella

"I don't know, lady Eloise, I supposed to bath her bath she started screaming and saying that her eye hurts," she replied

I slowly went closer to Zian, suddenly her left eye turns into red

"She took their souls away.." she uttered

"Whose souls?"

"The children from the village, she took their souls..." She said and started screaming again, "it hurts!!"

I hugged her and tried to calm her down but a strong force pushed me away from her

"Lady Eloise!"

I heard everyone from the room calling my name

My vision got blurry and my head hurts

"She's taking their souls!!" Zian screamed again

"What does she mean?" Prince Severus asked

"She keeps repeating the same words over and over again, but who's taking those children's souls?" Theodore asked

Her scream fades away and she looked at us, she looks so pale and her left eye started to go back to its normal color

"Lady Eloise...." She uttered, "I'm sorry..."

She closed her eyes and suddenly fainted

"Q-quick, call a physician,"

"But lady Eloise, she hurt you---" one servant said

"I don't care! She didn't mean it so please, cure her!" I screamed

"Yes, my lady!" They hurried and went away

Minutes later, a physician came and takes a look at her

"My, a magic inside her is so strong." Physician said

"What do you mean?" I asked

"The magic inside her is so strong that it takes over her. I'm sorry but I can't cure her, my lady, she still has a pulse but if she doesn't get treatment as soon as possible, her life would be in danger."

"Where I can find someone else to treat her?"

"I believe she's a child of a powerful mage, only the man from the east, sir Humrey, can cure her."

"Sir Humrey?"

"Yes, my lady. An old powerful mage, Humrey Shele, he's probably at least 300 years old and currently living in the east. If you can reach him, then you can probably save the child's life." He replied

"I understand, thank you," I said

He bows down, "It's an honor, my lady, now if you excuse me,"

I went out and currently heading to my room

"Lady Eloise, wait!"

I heard his highness voice behind me and it's not too long 'till he catches up

He grabbed my arm and I turned around to look at him

He glared at me as I look at him blankly

"Where do you think you're going? You think you can go anywhere without us knowing again?" He asked

"We already lost his brother, I can't let myself lose Zian herself. She saved Celeste's life and I have to pay her back by saving her life. I took her under my care, and I do not want to see her suffer, your highness."

"Why do you care so much about her?"

"Cause I know what it feels like to be alone and being unwanted by everyone, your highness. Being the monster in everyone's perspective because she hurts somone." I responded

Silence is taking over us so I decided to take my arm back and walked away

I have to see this wizard as soon as possible

Can't let myself see another Tybalt dies in my arms
