Witches & Demons (On hold)

A Magic User

I had knocked out Hatsu. Not only knocked him out.... I knocked him out with magic! Heck yeah! Wait not a time to jump for joy, even though I can't jump. I must figure out how to get out of these ropes. I should try to use magic again. I tried about five times. It didn't work, the ropes would not go away nor release me. Worst yet, Hatsu was regaining his strength little by little. I need to calm down. No panicking. Maybe trying to communicate with someone will work. I calmed myself and thought hard. I blocked away everything else. I thought of communicating the first person I thought of. That turned out to be Taru.

In my mind all was dark. I was running toward something. The only thing light shined upon. It was a door. A door that was locked. I couldn't open it. I knew who was on the other side. Taru. I tried as hard as I could, but the door wouldn't budge. I turned around and saw a person running after me. Hatsu. He was coming back to get me. I started to panic again. A voice called to me then. It was a woman. I did not know the owner of the mysterious voice, but it was strangely familiar. "Stay calm. You must stay calm. Or he will be here only faster."

"Who are you?" I couldn't help it. The tears slid down my cheeks.

"That does not matter for now. Stay calm."

"What am I supposed to do?"

"You have to break through the door."

"How do I do that?!"

"You believe in yourself. That door is not just a door. It is a barrier you created with your mind. You created it to block your powers because you are afraid. Afraid of the power in which you hold inside you. Do not be afraid anymore. Trust in your powers."

"I do trust in them!"

"No you do not. There would not even be a door if you did."

"How do I trust in the powers, then?"

"That..... is something you must figure for yourself."

The presence of the voice was leaving me in the darkness. "No wait! Don't leave me alone!", I screamed. It was too late. The voice and presence was gone. I started to panic again. Then I reminded myself. Be calm or else Hatsu will be here in seconds. I turned back to the door. I told myself trust in my powers. Trust in myself and everything will be fine. I opened my eyes. I looked at the door handle and grabbed it. I twisted the handle...

The door had opened. And I was in Taru's room.

I fell to the floor and Taru had woken up. His eyes were wide. I turned around and realized I had not shut the door. Hatsu was so close. I shut the door as hard as I could. Hatsu did not make it. I was safe.

"What the heck is going on?", he asked.

"I was kidnapped by Hatsu. He stripped me and tried to rape me. He kept calling himself my lover."

I ran to Taru's bed and jumped on him. I held onto him crying and shaking at the same time. All he could do was hold me and pat my head repeatedly.

After a couple of hours, he asked me again what happened. I told him everything from the very beginning to the end every single last detail. When I was finished talking, he had a serious look on his face. Then he looked me up and down. I looked at me and realized that I was still naked. Taru gave me one of his white button down shirts. It looked big on me, like I was wearing my big brother's shirt and I was a little girl. He started to leave the room, but I held onto him and told him not to leave me alone. He picked me up and brought me with him to the kitchen. He got me a glass of water and told me to go to sleep. I did, eventually, when he had taken me back to his room. I was in his arms when I went into my dream state.
