Magic's Curse

Chapter 5

We landed in a meadow in the middle of a forest of some sort, but there was something off about it.It was pretty yes,but it wasn't green at all.The trees were silver and frost white making them shine like diamonds, the grass was pale yellow making the forest look hauntingly beautiful."What a sight huh?I love this place, this is the forest of the dead winter."I turned to reply sarcastically, but when I saw Amy I just had to do a double take she was gorgeous, her hair hung down into her lower back and her light green dress was now fitted to her curves and presented herself off nicely,if I did say so myself, and her transparent sapphire blue wings were spread fully out behind her with shimmering bits in them.Her eyes looked over me burning blue with passion.I looked away unable to form a coherent sentence better than "yeah." We started walking towards the setting sun to the camp she told me about when I was ravishing in her beauty . . . like an idiot.

Finally we reached another meadow,she stopped before exiting the tree line.She turned and said,"You must shrink to elf size so that we can see and enter the Quiversmith camp."

"I don't Know about you, but uh . . . I don't have magic."I replied sarcastically

"Oh Right . . . your magic is still dormant.You do have magic,but since you were born in the mortal world your powers lie dormant in your elven blood.I can prove it look at your reflection."Then she pulled out a blade and tossed it to me . When I saw my face I freaked out and dropped it, almost loosing a toe in the process.I didn't look like myself,my hair was longer than usual and it was blue with green streaks.Even though it's not really different from before,my ears were spiked on the top and the bottom.My skin was amber colored and it glowed like the sun.My eyes,were the color of embers and were flecked with gold.I looked back at Amy in awe and she looked annoyed."I guess you are not very observant because you've been standing for about an hour mortal time.I had enough time to go into the village myself to get something to make you shrink."she deadpanned as I shook my head to clear my mind.

"You think that you know everything don't you,well sorry but you're wrong I have more important things to worry about than the fact that I look like Tinker Bell's shiny sidekick."I replied she looked taken aback and I realized that with my new eye color that they must look like a raging inferno of hatred and disgust,but before I could apologize she blew orange dust at me and the ground rushed up to meet me.
