The Warriors Of Wizardry

Chapter 6

*Celina's POV*

I cough several times because of the dust floating in the air. I squint through the inconspicuous room. There is so much dust that you can't see your surroundings! After all this is an old factory. I am not surprised by the mob of dirty fog. I wait a few seconds for the dust to clear away. As it clears, I start to make out a figure's shape at the doorway.

The figure is dark and there seems to be a slight coldness surrounding it. I can feel the chilly air from here and I cuddle myself to stay warm.

Suddenly, I feel a burst of energy coarse through my arms to my hands and heat seeps through my palms onto my arms. I gasp. The heat from my hands warms my body all over. I hold out my hands to examine my palms and see that they are glowing a deep red. My hands look like they had been laid on a hot stove! However, I don't remember touching anything hot.

After a few seconds, the red fades from my hands and my palms return to their normal color. The sudden chill sweeps through me again. I suddenly want the warmth to flow through me again. I turn my gaze back up to the doorway and see dark, black eyes staring back at me. I freeze in my current position. The dust cloud was gone by now and I can see the figure clearly now.

This time, the enemy is a girl. She has a long, silky, blue dress on that covers her feet. Her hair is wavy and goes down to her waist. It's a strikingly pure white color with a hint of silver at the tips. Her face is white like snow as well. Her lips are tainted blue and her arms are as skinny as branches like you could snap them just from bending them a bit too much. Under her dress white smoke curls around her and freezes the floor. The longer she stays in the room, the colder the room gets.

She stares at me with her black eyes for what seems like ages and I shudder. Her gaze makes it seem like she is staring into my soul. I look away from the soulless eyes and down to the floor. My eyes widen. The floor is practically almost an ice rink now! The wooden floors are receiving a sheet of ice every time the white smoke comes in contact with it. The ice starts to climb the walls.

Finally she speaks in an icy voice, "Oh good, looks like I found the right girl," I stare at her like she's crazy. "Don't be a fool, you know what I'm talking about! You are the Warrior of Fire aren't you?" she demands loudly, wanting an answer immediately. I jump at her frighteningly thunderous voice that booms across the big room. Also, why does everyone keep calling me the "Warrior of Fire?" Even that red guy with the exploding balls of energy called me by that name.

By the sound of her voice it seemed like she wants to kill me so I told her what I knew, "I have no idea what you are talking about! And why don't you give a girl a knock on the door instead of barging in and creating a dust storm!!" I exclaim trying to sound confident.

"Don't lie to me little girl! I saw what you did with your hands. What's your secret?" her voice booms loudly. I would like to know the secret behind what I just did as well. You're not the only one who is curious. The room was getting even colder as the woman's rage grew. It seems like her emotions affect her powers. Her powers are at full strength now!

"Who are you?" I ask as I rub my arms from the chilly air.

"I am Cassandra! Princess of Ice! I am the daughter of the famous Queen of Ice! I'm also here to destroy you." she expains to me proudly. I smirk.

I start shivering and I can see my breath in a mist form now. I rub my hands together and try to will the warmth to come again. However, it must have been beginner's luck before because it does not work. Ice covers the whole wall and floor now. My teeth chatter.

"Aww, is someone getting a bit cold?" the Cassandra says as if to tease me. I glare back at her.

"Get out of this room!!!" I yell out and thrust a finger at her as a gesture to get out. However, I do more than that. A red ball of heat and fire escapes my finger and hits her in the chest. She falls to the floor screaming in agony. The ice around her starts to melt.

My jaw drops open in shock and I slowly bring my hand towards me. I stare at my finger like it's a very rare object. What was that? I hear a grunting noise and my eyes wander to Cassandra getting up with a look of hatred so fierce, that it could scare away the bravest man in the world. I inch away from her on my bed.

"YOU WILL PAY FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE LITTLE GIRL! LET'S SEE HOW YOU DO WITH ICE!" her voice echoes so loudly that it makes the whole room shake. She thrusts her hand out in front of her and ice shoots toward me. I duck just in time as the ice freezes the wall. She tries again and it narrowly missed my arm. She tried again and again and every time, I dodged.

She was still attacking when she suddenly stopped and said, "Well, it seems like your little savior is coming along to help save you. Sorry I couldn't stay longer. But I have a gift for you. You are pretty hot from dodging all my attacks aren't you? Let's cool you down a bit!!!" she exclaims and her arms extend and ice shoots out of her hands towards the floor.

Ice fills the room until the whole room is colored white and blue. The temperature drops immediately. She then thrusts her hands toward me and before I can move, a solid ice block surrounds me, making it even colder than before. I start shivering and my teeth chatter. I try to break the ice with my hands but my hands are almost numb. I bring my knees up to my chest in a sitting position and hug myself.

"G-get me o-out of h-here!" I stutter as my words slur together. Oh I wish Calder was here now.

"Sorry, but your friend is only a few blocks away! I don't need more visitors. I'm sorry I couldn't destroy you today. At least I'll make you suffer!! Ta-ta!" she says and disappears in a cloud of smoke.

The room remains to be the North Pole. My hands are numb now and from my reflection in the ice my lips have turned blue. I try to use the trick I had used before to make my hands warm again but my hands won't work properly. I start feeling delirious and I just want to sleep. I know I can't but it's hard to resist. I hear noises down the hall and I think it's Calder. I look up hopefully and before my eyes close, he comes in rushing through the doorway.
