Chapter 14 - CHAPTER FOURTEEN

"THE JOURNEY TO THE KINGDOM OF KHASTRIYA (PART ONE)"

THE CONTINUATION...

Ced, Billy, and Miss Dominica decided to go with Alpia to Dalaket so that they could cross over to the world of Ayden. And now in the world of Dalaket...

" Where are you going, Billy? " Ced asked him.

" Just roaming around" Billy replied.

" Don't you hear what Miss Alpia told us? It's too dangerous outside. A lot of black smoke is roaming around and once they will catch you. Your soul will feel in hell" Ced says as she warns Billy about it. And one guy approached them.

" Hope you guys feel comfortable, even in this situation." Said the well-dressed man. Then Alpia came and gave them a charm that they could use to open the portal of Ayden.

" Oh, you're there. I want you to meet Lady Ced Apolinar of Khastriya," Alpia said as she introduced Ced.

" Lady Ced, nice to meet you. I am Raven, the crowned prince of Dalaket. Anyway, we have no time." Raven said when, suddenly, the ground was shaking.

"It's happening again. You guys need to jump to the portal. Once you were in Ayden. Give this charm to Olivia so that she will know that you are an ally." Alpia reminds them.

"Got it Miss Alpia, thank you for accommodating us. Don't worry, we will do our best to stop this." Ced said and Alpia just smiled at her. She waved her hands to open a portal.

"Now, this portal will lead you guys to the dark forest of Ayden. Please be careful." Raven said. And they immediately jump into the portal where they lead to the dark forest of Ayden. As they try to stand up after they fall on the ground, because of their bad timing of landing. Then, they jumped into the portal of Dalaket.

"Who are you?" A voice said behind their backs. When they turn around, a man stands behind them and has a bow and an arrow pointing at the three of them.

" We are no enemy! We are friends." Ced says as she tries to inform the man. Then the man saw the charm that they were wearing. "You guys are from Dalaket?" The man said.

" Yes, we are. I am Dominica and these are my students. Ced and Billy. We are here to ask for help with the Queen of Ayden," Miss Dominica said.

Meanwhile, in Khastriya...

Amanda saw everything about what happened to Ced.

" She's now on Ayden Argh! This can't be!" Amanda shouts when she sees Ced is now on Ayden.

" What's your plan now my Queen?" said a lady who was wearing a bat costume.

" Dear Rita, you're here. I am thinking of a brilliant idea that this needs your grace and beauty." Amanda said and smiled at her.

" What?" Rita replied, as if she was confused.

" By the help of this..." Amanda said, and she showed Rita the Piece of the scepter from Novaria.

" So, how is that going to work?" Rita asked.

" You watch and learn, my Dear," Amanda replies and winks at her. And Amanda doesn't waste time, as she casts a spell so that she can activate the piece of the scepter.

"Hear my name and voice... I'll command you to become my follower. Do you accept Rita?" Amanda asked, and a black smoke roamed around and turned into a bat.

"I'll accept your power and use this power to serve the Dark lord," Rita replied and the black smoke form of a bat immediately possessed her.

"Aaaaaarrrggghhhhhhhhh!!!! Bat Girl rise!" Rita shouts as she feels a strange energy that gives her power.

" Rise Bat Girl! Rise! Bwahaha!" Amanda said with an evil laugh.

Going back to Ayden...

" My name is Mar, and I am the guardian of this forest," Mar said as he introduced himself.

"Nice to meet you, Mar. Can you help us to see the Queen of Ayden?" Ced asks.

" Yes, I can help you guys to see the Queen. However, we have one problem," Mar said.

" What is it, bro?" Billy added.

" Well, you guys don't need to worry about it. I will help you guys to see the Queen so that she can open the portal for you to Khastriya." Mar said.

"So can we go now?" Miss Dominica said.

" Not right now. It is not safe, especially since it's too dark outside. We will start our journey to the castle first thing in the morning," Mar said.

" If that's the case, we will wait," Ced said. They didn't know Rita was watching them in the trees.

" Bat Girl, kill the princess of Khastriya and bring her here to me," Amanda commands her and Rita uses her ability to travel quickly to Ayden in the Dark Forest where Ced and her team are resting.

" Goodbye, princess wants to be!" As she attempted to attack Ced and her friends, suddenly an arrow hits her wings. And she screamed in pain.

" That's rude, uh, uh!" Mar said as Rita tried to attack him. But Rita can't move because of the arrow that hits her wings in the branch of the tree wherein she is hiding.

" Who are you?" Mar asks.

"I'm your nightmare..." Rita replied, and she used her ability to hypnotize her opponents.

" Now you are in my control, I want you to release me on this arrow," Rita said as she commanded Mar to release her.

" On it, Batgirl" Mar replied, and he released Batgirl from his arrow after he released Rita from his arrow. Rita commands him to kill Ced while sleeping. Mar slowly stepped forward to Ced's bed. He pulled out the dagger from his pocket and pointed it at Ced, who was sleeping at that time. When he is going to stab Ced, a strange light suddenly appears from the charm that Ced is wearing. Because of that light, Ced, Miss Dominica, and Billy immediately wake up. And they saw Mar's attempt on Ced's life when she was sleeping.

" What are you doing bro?" Billy asked, and he punched Mar and asked his face.

" What's going on?" Miss Dominica asked, as she was shocked.

"The keeper must die!" Mar replies, and he attempts to kill Ced again using his dagger. But at that, Billy used his ability to stop him.

" By the guidance of the fairy Maria Makiling, I command the trees and animals to follow my voice," Billy said, and his voice echoed inside the forest. All the plants and animals heard his voice. The animal's eyes turn green. While the surrounding trees gradually move and their roots come out, Billy immediately commands the roots to tie Mar. While Bat Girl is watching them and laughing.

" Feels like I am watching a live comedy show on TV, now I know this, the feeling is so funny!" The same with Amanda, as she saw this all in her magic mirror inside the palace.

" Good job, Bat girl, I can't believe they were very easy to control their mind and Bat girl is right looks like a comedy show on earth," Amanda said as she also laughed at what she saw.
