The Dark Tides [3]

A "Double" Date

Alright, for you girls to be able to finally defeat Tritannus, you must all be able to use your sirenix special spell, all you girls gained it, except you Frieda Wizgiz said, while you were away on Rainbow Valley you're friends have been successful in gaining it, now it's your turn.

Me and Professor Wizgiz put together a difficult challenge for you to overcome one that you can only do alone with the help of your special spell you will only have enough magic for one special spell everything else is based off of your skill and skill alone Palladium said, we will be here but we cannot take you out of the simulator unless you fail or pass the challenge otherwise it might have strange effects, you must understand once you go in getting out won't be as easy.

I understand Frieda said entering the simulator, I'm ready.

Good then let's begin Palladium said.

The simulator disappeared and replacing it Frieda found herself underwater, quickly moving her eyes back and forth she glanced for any sign of movement but there was none. And then there was a hissing sound and Frieda didn't waste a second climbing to higher ground, in perfect timing too, for if she hadn't moved the giant snake would have devoured her in seconds.

A sea serpent Frieda said to herself while eyeing the huge creature and it's royal blue scales and deadly fangs. The snake saw her and made way for its second attack, quickly seeing this Frieda hid behind a rock and the attack hit the rock instead. Okay she thought, normally a snakes weak spot would be it's eyes but how to aim an attack so high up and that took so much concentration, it would give enough time for the snake to attack or protect itself. What she needed was a trap, but how? Her eyes quickly scanned the area she was given while her ears listened closely to know if the serpent was coming or not; and then she spotted it a cave with a entrance not big enough for the whole serpent.

Catch me if you can she said to the serpent quickly swimming into the cave, the serpent came through yet it got stuck as the entrance wasn't big enough for it to fit through. Frieda then stood a good distance away from the snake and started working on the spell. Yet right before Frieda could send the spell to its face the serpent broke through the entrance and struck Frieda twice, once with its sharp claws, and a second time with its fangs.

I admire you fairy and your courage trying to defeat me the serpent said, but you can't win. I think we both know that.

I'm not giving up Frieda said standing up.

So you have courage and ambition, curious the serpent said very curious.

Frieda grabbed a sharp rock and threw it a the serpent and it struck its head, while it was distracted with the pain she quickly started the spell. The spell now ready sat patiently in her hands, Colors of sirenix Frieda said as she sent the powerful spell forward knocking the serpent to the floor.

Congratulations fairy, it seems you were able to defeat me but know this, in the end who will stand, those who fought for love, or those who fought for all the above. Frieda all those years ago you thought you chose your side, but.............. the serpent fell limp to the floor dead and the prophecy he held, died along with him.

Before Frieda could even question anything in the slightest, she was brought back to the simulator still in shock, what was the serpent trying to tell her and why?

Frieda, Wizgiz said are you okay?

I think so Frieda said, why do you ask?

Frieda, a sea serpents poison is fatal Palladium said, and it's possible you currently have some floating through your blood stream.

And you decide to tell me now Frieda said, and not before I went into the simulator and got bitten!

We thought it would be for the best Wizgiz said.
