Hannah was horrified. Her soul. . . Corrupted? This isn't true. . . Is it?

'We have to bring her to the Beast of Harmony if we want her to live.' Lunto said.

Hannah sighed.
"I suppose we have to go back after all. . ."

Everyone agreed.
"Alright, let's get moving!" Jake said loudly as they journeyed further.

The trees were thin, making the rays of the sun hit them, making them feel like they were in an oven. It was burning, it was so hot. The heat was unbearable. Lunto himself seemed tired of the heat since he quickened his pace to get out of the scorching sun.

Hannah, on the other hand, wasn't thinking about the heat. Rather, about what could've caused Hannah to be affected by The Corrupting of Soul. This was bad because The Corrupting of Soul can cause a person to. . . Not think straight. Think about things negatively, and even worse, if he or she is half demon, can lose control and fall into the hands of darkness. What causes this? No one knows.

"We need to hurry. . ." Hannah heard Mellow mutter. Hannah placed a hand on her shoulder and gave her a reassuring squeeze. "It's going to be fine, Mellow."

Mellow nodded but still felt anxious. They had to go back if they were to. . . Fix this problem. It wasn't going to be easy, but no matter how many times they'll be pushed down they will get back up. No denying that.

"Guys. . . " Veronica's voice was packed with nervousness. Hannah looked at the direction Veronica was looking and her eyes widened.

"We're back." Hannah muttered, leading the group towards Magics Academy.

They tried to push the entrance gates open, but they wouldn't budge. They wouldn't move. It was like some sort of enchantment or magic spell was cast on it, allowing only certain persons to open it.

Everyone except Luna had tried to push it. Luna walked up to it and gave it a slight nudge. Surprisingly, it opened.

"I. . . Uhhhh. . ." Luna stuttered.

"C'mon! What are you waiting for?!" Jake said and ran in.

Midway inside, a sort of invisible wall blocked him. He hit it and stumbled backwards.
"Whaaaa?"

Hannah cursed under her breath. "They've made everything. . . Safer and more secure."

"Sooooo. . . We can't go in?" Mellow whined and pouted. 

Luna sighed.
"'Fraid so. We have to call for their attention."

Mellow pouted even more.
"I was hoping for a grand, surprising entrance!"

Jake hissed.
"Lara is in a bad state and that's what your thinking?!"

Mellow cowered back a bit as Hannah shouted on top of her lungs.
"WE'RE BACK!!!"

The academy's door opened, but someone she knew and didn't like came out.
"Hello, Hannah." She turned to Luna. "And Luna." She spat their name aggressively which was obvious she hated them too.

"Monica. . ."

"Headmistress Chella, you mean." She said with arrogance. She was wearing a simple yet sophisticated dress. She wore ankle boots and had a leather sling bag. Her hair was in a messy bun and her nails were sharper than usual.
