Chapter 11

Francis, Allistor, and Arthur immediately stopped what they were doing when they head (Name) scream from the bathroom.

“(Name)!” They all shouted as they ran out of the rooms they were  in and ran straight to the bathroom. They found her sitting on the floor and trembling like a leaf.

“(Name)!” Francis said, shaking her gently by the shoulders. “What happened? Are you alright?”

Tears streamed from (Name)’s eyes as she grabbed onto Francis’s shirt and clinging to it for dear life. “T-there was a man in the mirror...” (Name) whispered with her shaking voice. “I w-was hearing voices in my head... T-then I saw him in the mirror....”

Francis wrapped his arms around (Name) and helped her stand up on her trembling legs. “What did the man look like, (Name)?”

“H-he was an old man with purple eyes... He kept saying that he found me but I’ve never seen him before...”

Arthur and Allistor exchanged glances of recognition before turning their eyes back to Francis who gave them the same glance. There wasn’t any doubt in their minds that the man who was hunting her down had found her again, and they would have to do something about him fast.

“Don’t worry, (Name),” Francis said. “That man won’t hurt you as long as we’re around.” Francis looked to the mirror, relieved to see that (Name)’s reflection was normal again. “Do you still see him there?”

(Name) shook her head but continued clinging to Francis as if he were her lifeline. “I’m scared, Francis... Who is this man...”

“It’s not anyone that you want to know about, (Name). Trust me.”

“We have to get her into my chamber, Francis,” Arthur whispered in his ear. “She needs her memory back so she can remember how to use her powers and defend herself.”

“Are you crazy?” Francis whispered back. “That’ll be like throwing her to him and asking her to start taking her.”

“It’s the only thing we can do frog. If he has really found her then she’ll need her powers back in order to fight against him.”

“I still say it’s dangerous.”

“Yes well we say it’s the only way to save her right now so we have no other choice.”

“We have to, Francey,” Allistor said. “It’ll only be worse if she doesn’t have her powers to protect herself.”

Francis sighed and held (Name) closer into his arms as she continued to cling ever so tightly to his shirt. “Fine, if that will help to save her then I guess I have no other choice.”

“Trust us, we don’t like it any more than you do but we have to get this over with.”

Francis nodded and led (Name) out of the bathroom, wrapping her in a bathrobe and follwing Arthur and Allistor to Arthur’s chamber. Arthur closed the door behind them and started chanting from his spell book with Allistor following his lead. 

“What are they doing, Francis?” (Name) asked.

“You’ll see soon enough, (Name),” Francis said, trying to hide the anguish in his voice. ‘I’m sorry you have to go through all of this, (Name),’ Francis thought to himself. ‘If only things could be different.’

Arthur and Allistor continued to chant their spells as a blast of light emerged from their hands, directing the light towards (Name). (Name) started to tremble again and clung onto Francis tighter. “What’s going on?” Arthur and Allistor finished chanting their spells and released the light from their hands towards (Name).
