The Dark Magician Girl Book 1
"The world surrounding me fades away into darkness. My father's voice slowly disappears. His touch is no longer there. I hear nothin...
This part is quite exciting! I had a lot of fun writing this part! This part starts the time when I write it as I go, as I have caught up to my plot notes. Enjoy!
I decided to upload two parts today because my original part 9 had this part included as well. I decided to break it up as mentioned in the last part. I wanted to keep this section together with the previous section and posting them together on the same day. Let me know what you think!

The demon locks onto me and surges forward at a high speed, shrieking and leaving a cloud of blackness where it once stood less than a second ago.
I quickly throw my left arm out creating a magic shield, while holding onto my father with my right hand and I put it around us right before the demon crashes into my father.
"Father, stay behind my shield!" The demon attacks the shield, shrieking, but it cannot break the force. My father looks down at me, with a stern look, "Star, listen to me. My sword, I think it is somehow linked to this. It has the ability to absorb your magic. That is what I believe your mother was referring to in your dream,"
I look up and nod, "I understand, father,"
The demon chuckles, "Did you like the surprises I left for you in the other world?" The demon continues its chuckle out of amusement from its previous statement.
What it is talking about? Is it referring to the soulless guardsmen that ferociously attacked me in the other world? The same guardsmen who did not respond when their princess ordered them to?
"Young child, you do not need to fear your destiny," The demon hisses, breaking me from my sudden thoughts.
I push the demon back with my magic shield, "No!" I shout, and I shove my left hand forward, shoving the shield forwards. The force slams the demon back, it shrieks in return, pushing against it. I immediately encompass the demon again with a magic shield but the demon is quick and destroys it. That sudden burst causes me to flinch and lose control for a moment, before I refocus my thoughts. I constantly pick up and throw debris lying about towards the demon, slowly levitating closer to it, causing it to have to shield itself from harm.
With one of the times the demon leaves itself open in order to shield itself from my attacks, my father charges past me and slams into the demon with his sword, a different one than the one I have from him, so it only slows the demon. I shield my father from harm and lift my left hand. My sword slowly fades into view from underneath my cape. I begin to power it up, but the demon seems hasty to allow that to happen. It disappears then reappears next to me within a second of time and knocks it out of my clutches, causing the sword to clang and slide to the far side of the room. Then the demon uses its arm to knock me back causing me to grunt. I flip in mid-air to stop myself from falling any longer. The demon locks sight with me as we both glance towards the sword.
