Troll princess

Mysticons

Mysticons

Humming happily, she rinsed the plate in the basin and arranged it properly on it racks. "" A loud long lasting sound came audibly from the backyard, which stole her attention.

'What was that?' She mumbled to herself while rinsing her hand. She walked towards the back door and opened it and stepped out.

"Oh My God" She looked up at the tree that was previously known to her as green now looking blue. "Grandma!" She yelled loudly as fear filed her mind. Grandma Anna was asleep in the room, Oblivious to her presence being called.

At the narrow end of her eyes, she could sight a bright blue light making its way towards her. Though it was in the air, the light kept moving until it was right before her and suddenly a figure formed out of the light and made its way on the tree. A figure that made cup her mouth with her hand.

Meeting the earth, it shook at the great entrance of the creature which had just landed on the branch of the tree. Cyra looked up at it with troubled eyes. It was something she had never seen before, not even in the movies. The creature made advances towards her with a thunder storm taking form behind it. There was no doubt that this creature walking towards Cyra had unimaginable powers.

"Who are you?" Cyra's calm voice made it halt and so did the thunder storm behind it.

"Your father" The creature had an unquechable smile on his face. Cyra walked forward to the creature with parted lips.

"What are you?. I would have said you are a human but the horns on your head forbids me from saying so. Who are you?" Cyra asked once a again. She could feel the great fear taking form within her.

"I'm a troll just like you my daughter,  Cyra" He said making its way to the ground. King Zardos smiled happily at his beautiful terrified daughter who stood before him.

"No no, you are a demon" she moved back and turned arround in a swift and ran into the house. She made her way with great pace towards her grandmother's room where she immediately shook her out of sleep.

"Gra...ma" she stuttered while trying her best to revive her breath.

"What happened Cyra?, why are you so scared?, What is it?" Grandma Anna Immediately sat down on the bed.

"A..a demon" Cyra said in one breath.

"Demon?, Where?" Her grandma immediately climbed down from the bed.

"At the backyard and the tree is blue!" Hearing the words come out of Cyra's mouth, grandma Anna immediately knew what was happening and instantly found her rod.

"Come let's go" Grandma Anna said Calmly.

"I'm not going out there grandma" Cyra said. She was still terrified.

"Come on Cyra, Don't you trust me?" Grandma Anna asked.

"I do grandma, I'm just scared" She said.

"Don't worry I'm here for you" Grandma Anna said and Cyra nodded while holding onto grandma Anna's free hand.

They both walked down the stairs and headed towards the livingroom where they were met with King Zardos, who sat comfortably on the couch, the thunder storm which Cyra had earlier saw had vanished. "Zardos what are you doing here?" Grandma Anna asked making Cyra Shocked as to how she knew the Demon, as she referred to him as.

"Mrs Annabelle, How are you?" King Zardos got up on his feet.

"I'm good Zardos. Why are you in the human world?, You coming here has never brought by a good thing" Grandma Anna said while taking a seat on the sofa. Cyra stared at both of them in bewilderment. Why was her grandmother not scared of the sight before her?, could it be that she knew him?. She thought.

"Grandma do you know him?" Cyra asked while placing her right arm on her grandmother's shoulder.

"Unfortunately, yeah. Sit down Cyra" Grandma Anna said but Cyra refused to abide. She stood there with her gaze on her father's horn. "Don't worry he isn't harmful" Grandma Anna assured and Cyra nodded while taking a sit.

"And Zardos, could you take your horns back inside?. You are scaring the poor girl" Grandma Anna said when she noticed that Anna's gaze was mainly on the horn on his head.

"Oh" King Zardos chuckled and immediately made his horn vanish. Making him look a little bit normal.

"So what brings you here Zardos?" Grandma Anna questioned.

"I came to take my daughter with me" King Zardos said. He wasn't a type to beat arround the bush, he preferred going straight to the point.

"Why?. I think you have forgotten what comes with following you to the mystic world. I do not want my granddaughter to suffer the same faith as her" On hearing what Grandma Anna had said, Cyra became extremely curious. What could they be talking about, could it be about her mother. Cyra thought while staring at king Zardos face which. She studied his face intently and saw that he had Green eyes just like her's. His body frame was that of human but with a Mystical touch, seeing him you would be certain that he is an alien to the human world, for his Features looked extremely diverse from that of the humans

"Can you guys please explain to me what is going on here?" Cyra spoke, Making both her dad and Grandmother turn their attention to her.

"Cyra meet your father, King Zardos of Dractica" Grandma Anna said and Cyra immediately shot her a questioning glare.

"But my Father is dead. You yourself made that clear to me, I refuse to believe what I have just heard" she stood on her feet "And whatever you are, please go back to where you have come from, I'm following you no where" she started walking away but was paused when she found herself floating in mid air.

"Oh My God, put me down" She said in a frightened pitched tone.

"You have to listen to us" King Zardos said while putting her down on the couch slowly.

"I'm your father and I am alive as you can see. The rest will be told to you by your grandma, please Mrs Annabelle tell her the truth about her identity and birth" King Zardos said And Grandma Anna nodded.

"The truth is..." She took in a very deep breath "you are indeed a Troll, half troll and half human to be precise" Grandma said making Anna give her a very sarcastic glare.

"you can make your face like that all day but this is the truth. Your mother, Isabelle fell in love with Zardos nineteen years ago" Grandma Anna began narrating the story.

"Isabelle was very sick with cancer and we all thought we were going to die until Zardos came walking through the door. Like literally, he did just walk through the door. Zardos Happened to have known Isabelle since she was born and he had liked her ever since then, so on that faithful day when isabble had almost died, Zardos casted a spell upon her and in a jiff she got better. When we went to the hospital for a test, she was diagnosed to have been cured of cancer, I was shocked. I didn't know how to thank Zardos enough, indeed I was terrified of his figure but within those horns and dark green eyes is a heart. A heart which he had given to Isabelle in return for hers. They both fell in love." Grandma Anna paused and wiped the little tear in her eyes and begun again. "They fell in love and decided to become one, they both got married and I consented to it because I knew Isabelle won't be able to survive without Zardos. And, they were blessed with a beautiful Fruit" she looked at Cyra who stared at her grandmother intently.

"You were that beautiful Fruit, Cyra. But, something or should I say somepeople stoked when they found out that king Zardos had given birth to a child with the moon light sign on her chest" Grandma Anna said and Cyra looked at her with a confused expression.

"But there's no moon light sign on my chest" Cyra said.

"That's because it was made Invisible. Zardos please help bring it to light" Grandma Anna said an Zardos did as told making a loud gasp escape Cyra's mouth.

"Oh my God!, What happened to my mum then?, Is she also alive?" Cyra questioned.

"Unfortunately my daughter died while saving you. The ogre's found you and wanted to end your life but your mother wouldn't let that happen. So she took your fall and fell into the mystic water that ended her life" Grandma Anna was already in tears.

"And now, the Ogres are beginning to find out where you have been kept, and they intend on Killing you if they find you Cyra" King Zardos said.

"I don't believe you guys" Cyra got up from her foot.

"What don't you believe?" Grandma Anna asked calmly.

"The magic, Ogres, they are all cartoon characters. And you, please go back to where you are from. I reckon you are from the land of the demons, I believe those are real. Now get out from here" Cyra said and took a Twirl and began walking away.

"WAIT!" King Zardos voice became more hoarse and daring than the previous.

"I came because I need your help Cyra. And I promise you that what we have just told to you is the truth. The Ogres will destroy you if they find you" King Zardos said.

"They can't, you know why?. They aren't real" She began walking up the stairs but paused when grandma Anna began to sing.

"♪Mystic worlds and mystic beings, That is all we are surrounded by. All I want to say is....♪" Grandma Anna paused as Cyra began to sing along, it was her mother's song which her mother had written and sang to her before she died.

“♪Be strong and you shall overcome it my Cyra, my princess. You know that, I love you so much. My Mystic Princess, Cyra♪” Cyra collapsed on the stairs Immediately she was done singing the lines of the short song.

"You are not lying, the song?. Now I get why she mentioned me as a mystic princess. I thought it was on Ode poem" She said. "I didn't understand"

"Now you do Cyra, we at Dractica need your help" King Zardos said.

"how?" Cyra asked.

"You'll have to come with me first" King Zardos said and she stared at him calmly.

The loud stomping of his large foot distracted the Huge creature who was  seated on the bamboo made Throne, decorated with beautiful flowers. "Dromanda what is the news you have for me today?" King Gurland Asked as he raised his head up to meet that of the Gigantic Ogre as himself before him.

"I found out where Cyra is my king. And you were right, King Zardos led us right straight to her" Dromanada said. His husky voice dominating the whole palace.

"I told you my plan would work, king Zardos is such a Fool!. He thinks he is one step ahead of of but he is wrong. I'll make sure the Mysticons belongs to me, the Mystic world will be ruled by Ogres and not a Troll, Elf, Fairy, mermaids or Goblins. Just us the Ogres, the strongest of All creature In the Mysticons. I'll make sure king Zardos is also killed just like Isabelle" Immediately king Gurland finished uttering all the words. A loud Diabolical laughter followed suit from him. And so did Dromanada, he began to also laugh which got him a deadly glare from king Gurland.

"Never laugh when I laugh!" King Gurland said in a Stern voice. "Make sure you keep an eye on that princess, Cyra. I'm certain that she shall come to the Mysticons soon" King Gurland said.

"What about the rest of the Creatures in the Mysticons?. Who should keep an eye on them?" Dromanada asked.

"They are of no treat to us, the fairies are very foolish and not to talk of the stupid goblins whose agenda is food and nothing else. We only need to focus on ending the trolls and we must begin by destroying that princess" King Gurland said and Dromanada nodded. Indeed Princess Cyra was in great danger.
