I woke up to the sound of a rumbling snore, geesh would this guy ever shut up!!!!! I looked at his burns again still wondering how he got them. Well he is an idiot so….
I decided to take a walk outside, it was still dark out, but the darkness belongs to evil so I was perfectly safe. When I stepped outside the warm air surrounded me, the sky felt like it was smiling at me. It was odd?
I heard a yell from an abandoned house a couple of kilometres away, I ran, it must have been another wanderer into the house everyone who entered in there died. As I got closer the grass around the house was dying, the trees had lost all there leaves and the house was decaying away. There was a yell from an open door.
An ugly old witch was standing there yelling for her life the wrinkles were literally falling off her face she had a bent back and to many warts to count. She cried out “the darkness is good, the good is killing me, what happened to my wonderful darkness? Who did this? I will dest…” her sentence was cut short, she fell to the ground.
I crept over to her and checked her pulse, she was dead.
I ran back to my house I was getting way to much exercise today can’t I just eat junk food and not have to burn it off? I don’t get how that witch just died, maybe she put a wrong ingredient in a potion. When I entered my home a sweet aroma filled my nose and I dreamily strolled into the kitchen. The weird dude was trying to make breakfast, he wasn’t doing very well he kept dropping the fry pan. His burns were obviously not helping him with cooking.
“Maybe you should stop cooking” I snapped at him, I still didn’t like this dude.
He glared at me and I shoved him to the table and made him sit down, “if you want I can make you some medicine to help with those burns?” I asked quietly, not wanting to show any sympathy, which I obviously wouldn’t duh.
“umm as long as you don’t put toads in them?” he scarcely asked.
I laughed my head off god this guy was so stereotypical.
“Don’t worry I’ll use frogs” I tried to tell him why having laughing fits in the middle of each word.
“I didn’t know witches could make medicine?” he asked.
“They don’t… it’s just me” I replied while shrugging my shoulders.
We went into an eerily silence, I was wizzing around the kitchen grabbing all the ingredients. Once I made the medicine I put it in front of him and made some breakfast for me. When I sat at the table he hadn’t touched the medicine.
“umm, sorry, but I don’t know how to use this stuff” he said.
I softly laughed, what an idiot “you just rub it on all over you’re burns and they’ll heal instantly” I told him.
He started rubbing it all over him, I looked away and stared at my breakfast, it suddenly became really interesting.
Once he was done I put the dishes away, I couldn’t be bothered using magic to put them away sometimes it’s good to do it the hard way, really I was just so tired and couldn’t be bothered.
I sat back down, I was urging to bombard him with questions but not sure if he was ready “its ok you can ask me what happened” he said, obviously noticing me about to explode with curiosity.
“Well, how did you get those burns” I tried starting off with a simple one.
“I’m not really sure all I remember is walking out into the sun, stumbling backwards, then blackness surrounded my vision.”
“You don’t remember anything else?”
“ummm nope” he popped the p.
“Well how about on the first day when you fell through my door? Why were you here?”
“I heard some rumours going around that an extremely powerful person would curse the land, so I went to investigate but Isortogotlost” he mumbled the last bit.
“Wow you got lost, how the hell did that happened” I joked around
“Well excuse me for getting lost in a place I’ve never been” he stormed off.
Wimp.
I found the guy sulking in the living room, I sat down in awkward silence.
“What's your name?” I asked.
“Daniel and yours?”
“Lilly”
The day went pretty quickly basically the weird dude A.K.A Daniel just sat around lazily staring into space. While I cooked meals, cleaned up meals and studied for my test for school. There was a question that came up about a poisonous flower and I forgot what it was called so I went outside to search for the flower, it was dark out now so I had to be careful I didn’t step on anything weird. Daniel followed me out he stopped at the door.
“Lilly what happens if I get burnt again?” He questioned.
“Well you get to put more medicine on yay” I joked.
He grabbed all the courage he had inside, which wasn’t much and stepped outside. He started glowing and I’m guessing that wasn’t normal, he almost looked like an angel but he was too ugly to be one.
“Ok well that was strange” Daniel described.
“How come you can come outside when it’s dark but not when it’s light shouldn’t it be the other way around?” I asked.
He shrugged and it proved how little he would help with this puzzle.
All the memory’s from last night came flooding back to me princess Layla, The potion and her Latin words.
“I know what’s happening and I don’t think this situation is going to suit anyone.”
Ummm well Do you like it? I'm not very good at this so don't judge anyway tell me what you think and if this story is boring thanks. :)
