Queen of Winter

Chapter 4

"Hang on, Ester. We're about to slide!" Oliver yelled. The mountain is so steep that we can enjoy sliding all the way down. Maybe skiing would do. But Oliver shouted awhile ago, so does that mean that he is afraid of heights?? Hahahah, how funny of him..

I was about to take off when the scaredy cat asked me something, "Aren't you afraid of heights?" Ha! Got ya! "No, I'm not. I'm never afraid of heights. Hihi.."I zoomed all the way down and down and down and down until I almost reached the bottom. But as I tried to glance at the back, Oliver still isn't sliding."Aren't you going to go down yet? Haha, I need a navigator you know.." I yelled at him.

I finally reached the bottom but when I looked for him, I noticed there aren't any noises from him. All I see is a tiny, little dot from above. Then, the dot went bigger and Bigger and BIGGER until the dot forms a figure of a person. He calls me a human being but it dosen't mean he isn't a human. I hear noises from the top and I bet it came from Oliver.

~"aaaaaaaaaaggggggggghhhhhhhhh"~

I laughed a lot and a lot as I see him scream like a dying bird. "Hey! I thought you have powers to control your fear!! But what am I witnessing? Hahahahahahahahahah," I shouted at him. And I thought about helping him. But how? I even don't know how to manage my powers, yet. But I do believe that I can do it. For now. Because I know that anything is possible, as long as I believe.

I removed my gloves and raised my hands in the air. I tried to feel the power with all my might. Mm-mmm-mmmmm.

~whoosh~

I felt it and tried to release it. And I felt it e-even more..!

~whoooosh~

The power I summoned got out of my hand and formed a.................bubble?? Well, at least a Big bubble. I think that would work to help the afraid freak get down, slowly, without getting triggered. And. It did. Well, atleast...

The bubble carried him all the way down. And goodthing I didn't get to hear his screams anymore. It was about to be too loud and annoying to me. The bubble popped as he finally stepped the ground. "Phew, that was scary, real scarreeeyyy, " he sighed. But, little by little, I'm getting over with it.

I kind of don't care about his reaction for awhile as I was watching the view. I thought Pasdof would be just full of snow and ice. But I can see green stuff all over the place. Beyond the cold mountain, comes the summerish grass and the structure... I saw it. But I thought it was near. I was... far.

Not to mention, since it's summer, I should better change my outfit. It's starting to get hot in here. I used my powers again to change my clothes but I think its not hard. Its just clothes, you know..

          *few       seconds       later...*

Nope not this, not that, too long, too short, too wide, too narrow, ah! Just right! "Ugh, seriously?! Are you a fashionista or something?!" Oliver complained, "I never expected this side of you. Let me help. Maybe even the outfit you wanted doesn't suit you at all." Then he pointed out his hands on me and started to move his fingers. Then, something (magical?) happened.

He changed my outfit. And it was way better than the one I wanted. I have to admit that. My hair is bunned and he made shades for me! So cool! And my blazer got tied on my waist. My inner shirt was showned. It was white. Then at the bottom, I have shorts (also white) and some awesome sneakers. They look like the latest model. Yes. I think none of you guys are expecting me being like this. Haha!

Anyway, Oliver has a point about this. And I can't even control my powers yet. I thought it wasn't a big deal. And yes, the one I wanted awhile ago was actually made out of puffs. So no matter how fit it is, it still feels hot.

WHY AM I FOCUSING ON FASHION NOW?! HEY, I THINK THIS IS TOO MUCH NOW?! I HAVE TO BE SERIOUS, TECHNIVALLY, CURIOUS!!!

So...uhm, can we walk now, plzzz... "Okay, let's go to the Pasdof station to get to school easily." Okay! Good!

We were walking through the green stuffs around. The forest. It's just like home in the other dimension but the only difference is the fact that the houses here looks like a mushroom. Exactly like toad's house in Mario. Oliver, on the other hand, is looking at those houses while smiling. "Why are you happy? I think this isn't your first time going here. Is it?" I asked. "Well, this was my home.."
"was your home? Where do you live now then?"
"In the school, my house was destroyed after Moth killed your mom."
"Where are your parents? Actually, I honestly think that Moth didn't kill my mom. She's a friend.."
"Im an orphan, I have no parents. But its okay, the neighbors here are really nice. And thats a bad thing for you because everyone here calls her an enemy, and I'm one of those people."
"Oh, it's okay, I understand"

I smiled at him to let him atleast make him feel warm. Hey! That's kindness. It's not what you guys think. Hmmm.. now I don't know. He really seems like a nice guy. But I am still convinced that Moth didn't kill my mom. Oh, what should I do? I should be wise at this point. Because I'm the princess in this world.

"But hey, don't feel bad about me, okay? Think about yourself," Oliver told me. And he is right. I should think about myself more at this moment. Who's side I should go to? A good nobody or a mysterious somebody? Can't it be just both?

We were still walking but passed many villages and at the end of the road, there's a sign.

" Pasdof station is this way"
