Cursed And Forgotten 2 : Stopping The Storm (Hatfilms and Yogscast fanfic)

Chapter 16 - The Enderman and The Amber Gem

Smiths POV
We were following the path which I clearly remembered from when I was young, the path which was skirted with various magic flowers which bled the essence of life. We passed the little town, planning on returning once we'd found the Mage. I walked beside Storm while Ross and Tess walked behind. "So did you ever see the Mage tower?" Storm asked me. I tried to recall any memory of the place but sadly non arised. "Don't think so, all I remember is the small festivals we had in the village from time to time, but even then the Mage wasn't around much anyway" I replied. Storm looked at me with a curious look about her face. "Has anyone ever met the Mage?" She asked. "I don't know, but there's plenty of old tales and legends about the Mage" I said remembering when the town elder had told me stories before I left for home. "Oh never mind, I guess we'll be the first" she said.

Normally people wouldn't dare visit the Mage on their own accord unexpected and uninvited, but storm had a determination which she wasn't letting anything stop. We walked up the path until we reached the entrance of the castle, the Mage tower sat in the direct centre towering over the other parts of the castle. It was made of a smooth black stone, basalt brick actually and on the front stood a perculiar logo which was new, as we could see the fresh paint on the brickwork. "Who goes there?" A guard asked stepping out infront of us. "My names Storm and these are my assailants, we've come to speak with the Mage" storm declared. "Does the Mage know of your arrival?" He questioned. "No he does not sir, but we have some urgent matters which may regard the safety of this realm" Storm said getting all formal. "Let me inform the Mage, and I will see if he approves of your visit." The guard said sternly as another took his place and he went to see the Mage.

Ross's POV
So we were just stood waiting for awhile before the entrance doors opened and the guard from before came back out. Another figure came out with him, and when the figure dropped the hood it revealed a familiar face and a friend. "Rythian?" Me and Smith said in unison. "Guys? What are you doing here?" He asked confused. "It's gonna take a lot of explaining" Smith said. Rythian nodded and we followed him into his tower. After the long explaination of how we were there in the first place we finally managed to get to the point and the main reason why we were here. "So Trotts somewhere lost in this realm, and Jet is coming to attack me" He said repeating what we'd explained checking he was right. "Yeah... You already know don't you!" Storm said. Rythian hung his head. "I do, Jet visited me just yesterday." Rythian said. "Anyway while you guys are here feel free to experience the luxuries of my castle." We nodded and Smith and storm stayed with Rythian but I decided to drag Tess elsewhere.

"Tess c'mon let's go have some fun" I said as we snuck away quietly. "So where do we go now?" I asked as we stopped in a large corridor. "Well maybe we could check out the indoor pool and hot tub" Tess said smiling. "I think we shall" I replied as we headed off. Once there we got sorted and relaxed, we put on some music in the background and just chilled. Another amazing thing about this room is that one wall was glass some could see out of it over the town and we could see the twilight sky glimmering. "Isn't it beautiful?" Tess asked "sure is" I replied. Tess leant over and rested her head against my shoulder. "Imagine living here. It would be amazing" Tess said. I didn't know what to say so I kept quiet. After a long gap of silence Tess spoke again. "Ross would you ever move here with me. I mean I know it's a big thing as you'll have to take some of my blood and become part magical. But still would you ever consider it?" The question was a shock, but I answered it calmly and cooly "I'm happy wherever as long as it's with you"

Storms POV
We were still with Rythian explaining our life story pretty much, but when we got to earlier events he seemed to spark an interest in something. "So what Gems have you got?" Rythian asked. "I'm alexandrite, Tess is amethyst" smith said. "I'm Amber" I added. Rythian looked at me amazed. "Wait what? I am hearing this right. You just told me you are the Amber gem!" Rythian repeated. I smiled, "yeah shocking right, likewise we didn't realise that you were the Mage of the magical realm" I replied. He laughed "guess so. Wait that means... The prophecy is coming true!" Rythian said excitedly. I looked to smith for info on the prophecy and he said he couldn't remember any. "Rythian what's the prophecy?" I asked as me and smith waited for a reply. "It is said There will be a dark force in the land which could only be stopped by the amber gem and the great Mage. The two wouldn't make it alone, no each had to find their lover before they could regain full sanity and control of their powers. The two powerful people would have human lovers, the only two humans that were able to fight for their love and somehow survive in the magic realm" he explained.

Me and smith looked amazed, but even more determined to find Trott. That's when I realised. Rythian had a human lover right, but where was she and who was she? "Rythian who's your lover if you don't mind me asking?" I asked hopeful. He looked at me with pain in his eyes before avoiding the question. "Doesn't matter about that lets just get some rest for tomorrow. We've got a walrus to find" Rythian said. We said our thanks and goodbyes before meeting with Ross and Tess in the main hall before we were all taken to our rooms. Ross and Tess were given the room at the end of the corridor, smith was in the next one along, but me, mine was on the other side of the building closer to the Mage tower. As the others went to sleep I couldn't help feeling restless and broken as I imagined Trott alone without any memory of me, I would have to make him fall in love with me again and I just hoped it works.

After laying still for an hour I got out if bed and climbed to the window. I open it and using my magic I flew to the top of the Mage tower and looked up at the stars, the beautiful twilight sky littered with millions of stars. I lay down and gazed up at them and felt myself calm and find peace, the cool wind around me soothing my mood. I hope you're okay Trott. I miss you, but you'll stay alive, the prophecy says so.

Rythian's POV
I was waiting for my guests to settle and when I heard all their doors shut and silence from each of them I knew they were sleeping. I went out of my room and climbed to the top floor of my tower. I unlocked he roof hatch and quietly snuck out. Once out I looked around to my usual spot and saw storm sat calmly. It's amazing to think that she is the actual Amber gem. She's the most powerful person in the realm according to legend, and apparently she was supposed to be evil when she gained all the power, but storm was the opposite. She was kind caring and determinated. Although the same pain I feel for Zoey also showed in her eyes but for Trott. It's amazing how two people of the magical realm could posses so much power but still be unable to stop the emotional pain they felt.

I walked over to storm and sat down beside her, she didn't seem surprised to see me but she stayed silent and carried on gazing at the stars. "Rythian do you miss her?" Storm asked. "All the time" I replied lying down beside her. "It hurts so much and yet we can't control it. How do you manage to stay so strong?" She asked. "I don't I just hide it well" I replied truthfully. "Oh, will you tell me who she is?" She asked again. "It's Zoey, you know yogscast Zoey. Blackrock chronicles and all that" I answered. "I see that was more real than suspected" she replied smiling "you and Zoey are cute together. And if I learnt anything from blackrock is that you should always say the I love you line before the I need you and the I miss you." She continued. I smiled "yeah, I just hope she's okay, I mean she has some sort of power that's why she can travel realms without ending up like Trott has, but she still is no match for Jet" I said. "She'll be okay Rythian. We'll find them both and then we'll kick his ass into oblivion. The prophecy says so" storm replied. I wanted to believe her but after all these years of waiting for the prophecy to come true I didn't trust it completely.

"You know I'm glad someone finally understands how I feel" storm said. I nodded in agreement. "I'm just glad I've got someone to talk to. If not I sometimes lose it and go all enderman" I replied. "Yeah I get that apart from I go all split personality, it's not pretty" she replied. "So how did you guys like meet?" I asked storm. "As in we were both able to see each other meet or just meet as in at the bar?" Storm asked laughing slightly" I smiled. "Any" I said and she carried on. "Well when we properly met for the first time it was when I broke the curse on Trott when he was in the hospital. See I'm skilled at fucking up jets magic already" she added making me laugh a little.

"How about you and Zoey? How did you meet?" She asked. "She fell from the Sky, she's my fallen angel" I replied. "Aww that's so sweet and so sad. I'm gonna get Zoey back Rythian I promise you that" she said as we sat up. "I promise we'll get Trott back" I replied. She smiled and we hugged quickly, "you know Rythian I've not known you very well or for very long and already you're my best friend." I smiled "ditto. It was nice talking to someone for once." I replied. "Same here. Let's go get some rest now" she said and I nodded and let her go back to her room as I went back to mine.

Here you go guys hope you enjoyed. Sorry if I'm not writing enough but I try, it's just I seem to write more often when I have an idea which sparks my imagination. Otherwise I hope you like the friendship I've made between Rythian and storm.
