"Is that it?" Someone asks. I'm too immersed at the sight to even pay attention to who's talking. We're all gathered at the edge of the ship, staring down at the large black castle below us. We finally arrived at Zara's castle. It's nothing like what I thought it would be.

"This is where we're supposed to be." Jin gulps. The black castle has an eerie fog around it which reminds me of Millstone Island.

"This place is super creepy." Ally shivers. Eddie rubs her back soothingly. He also has a terrified expression on his face.

I grip onto the railing and narrow my eyebrows, "We don't have time to stand here and stare—"

I'm cut off by a sudden explosion that rocks the ship. I look behind me and see that part of our ship has exploded.

"What the hell was that?!" Lia screams. Another explosion rocks the ship. This time it comes from the other side of the ship. I look down and my eyes widen. There are people surrounding the castle with wands in their hands. An orange beam is aimed at our ship, which is what's causing the explosion.

"We're under attack! We have to get off the ship!" I cry out. Jin rushes over to the wheel and attempts to control the ship, but fails. His face changes from worry to horror as the wheel breaks off.

"Oh come on!" He yells.

The ship tilts sideways and starts to head down. We all fall onto the deck and roll around. I grab the nearest post and look around to make sure the others are alright. Everyone has found something to grip onto.

"What do we do?!" Jungkook asks me with worry. I grit my teeth and squeeze my eyes shut trying to think of a plan. Everyone is looking at me now.

Come on Destiny, THINK!

My eyes shot open, "I got it!"

"Care to explain?! We're about to die!" Yoongi gives a loud piercing cry.

I slowly stand up while still holding onto the post.

"Be careful Des!" Jungkook and Lia holler. I ignore them and focus on casting one of the spells in my book. I feel the magic energy surge through me.

"Guys look!" Eddie points. He notices that I'm casting a force field spell.

After repeating the spell in my head I open my eyes and see that we are all in a purple ball, floating down to the ground. I look behind me and see that the ship has crashed into the ground, causing a giant explosion.

Many of the people surrounding the castle are caught in the explosion, so once we land there are only a small amount of wizards left. Luckily they aren't paying attention to us since they think that we are still on the ship.

Once we reach the ground the bubble pops. Everyone drops to the ground and kisses it.

"Holy shit! That was awesome!" Lia shakes my shoulders. Namjoon chuckles behind her, "Seriously Destiny; if it weren't for you we all would've died."

"That was so badass! Did you see her? She was all like—" Taehyung waves his arms around. Jimin joins him in mocking my previous actions. I laugh at them as they attempt to recreated my spell. Hoseok and Jin copy them too.

"Thank goodness everyone's okay!" Eddie wipes the dirt off his knees and so does Yoongi. Eddie then helps Ally up and she immediately stomps over to me.

Here we go. I sigh.

Once we're face to face, I notice the tear stains on her cheeks. She's panting heavily and suddenly hugs me. I almost fall back fro mr he sudden action.

"T-Thank you, Destiny." She whispers. I awkwardly hug her back. When she pulls away she wipes her tears and scowls, "You are so lucky we didn't die!"

I smile at her, "You're welcome."

"Destiny!" Jungkook calls. I turn my head and he crashes into me. My head is buried in his chest as he hugs me tightly.

"I thought we were going to die, but you saved us. Thank you." He pants. My cheeks heat up while I hug him back.

"Now isn't the time for a hug fest." Yoongi's eyes widen. He's looking behind us. Jungkook and I slowly turn and see the remaining wizards. They're aiming their wands at us, ready to fight.

I pull away from Jungkook and fill my palms with dark magic, "This battle has only begun."
