Holy Magic

After my mother gave me a long speech about not having food fights in the dining room because that would just be disrespectful to the maids. I went to the throne room to meet four serious faces. Lord Ace was about to lead Durin, Revan, and Wyrda to the sacred room where the crystal of holy essence was. It would give them the magic to be able to be called the Holy Knights. I was excited for them. After years of being poor peasants, they learned how to fight their way through. And in a few moments, they would be the most powerful knights in the kingdom.

   It was finally time for them to receive their magical powers. Lord Ace led us to a door that looked old and rusty, but legend says even if it looks really easy to open, it's actually impossible without a top secret code. I didn't even know what it was and I was queen.

  Lord Ace did the secret code. It looked really complex, even if you looked at him doing it without blinking once you still couldn't figure out what it was. That's how important this was, if someone was to ever get in the room that contained all the magical essence for evil, the whole realm would be doomed. We entered the room and saw the little crystal before us.

   The room was filled with trees and flowers like we were outside. Legend says that the crystal needs nature surrounding it in order to prevent it from draining its power. Lord Ace closed the door. "Are you ready Holy Knights?" Lord Ace asked. The three of them nodded without saying a word. I could tell they were pretty nervous, but excited at the same time. Lord Ace started saying magical phrases quietly while concentrating on the crystal. Then little droplets from the crystal started to form 2 drops for each of them. First, Lord Ace slowly levitated the droplets into Wyrda's eyes at the same time. I could tell he was in pain and he tried to hide it. "It's alright show your pain if it makes it easier I know how much they hurt," Lord Ace said quickly trying to still concentrate on the droplets while talking. He did the same with Durin and Revan. They all screamed in pain. I know it seemed like it was punishment, but they were about to be the Holy Knights. They might experience pain worse than this.

   They were still screaming in pain and pounding on the ground. The more the power the more the sacrifice. After about 8 minutes of them suffering from the stinging in their eyes, the pain started to wear off. Then Lord Ace put cool blindfolds on them. "They won't be able to see for about 3-4 hours. In the mean time they will be sleeping, it will help wear off more of the pain," Lord Ace explained. Lord Ace then tried to open the door, but it didn't even move. "I swear I did the code right," Lord Ace said nervously. Wyrda then asked, "What's happening?"
"I think there's something wrong with the door," I said nervously.
Lord Ace tried to do the code again, but it didn't work. I started to panic.
Durin then asked,"Can we get out?"
"I don't know what's wrong," Lord Ace said nervously. Revan started panicking too.
He then asked with panic,"What's going to happen to us? Are we just trapped here??"
Then all of a sudden we heard a loud roar. It sounded like the roar I heard several years ago. The roar that killed my father. The blood dragon.... I started shaking really bad.
"I know that roar," I said really nervously. "It's the blood dragon."
Everyone started looking terrified. We didn't know what to do.
Revan then asked nervously,"But he can't come in this room right? Without the code?"
"I'm afraid that the blood dragon is the one who's keeping us in here," Lord Ace. He sounded helpless, and I started to worry even more. If Lord Ace sounded helpless, then we're all helpless. He's the only one with powers that could see. We just had to hope that the blood dragon wouldn't come until 3-4 hours have passed when the Holy Knights could see. But even if we were that lucky, they would have no idea how to use them. We were doomed....
