Demon Troll
After so much pursuation from Cyra's Grandmother, she finally agreed to go with her father. Though she wasn't happy about it, she only wanted to see the situation they were in since he had said that she was the chosen one who had the ability to control the seven gems of the mystic world.
"How do we get there through a tree?" Cyra asked Zardos in a shaky voice. He knew she was scared from the way her voice sounded.
"Trust me" King Zardos simply said with a smile surfacing his face. He let his right hand out towards her and she gently placed her hands on his, his hands were softer than she had expected.
She turned one last time to stare at Grandma Anna who smiled. “Go my love” Grandma Anna said. She smiled calmly as she watched Cyra and Zardos together.
“Are you ready?” King Zardos asked and Cyra nodded. There was no doubt she was scared of what was about to happen. “Believe you can fly and you’ll fly” Her father said. She nodded her head as she held onto his arm. She took in deep breath and started to feel that her legs were no longer on the ground. She instantly gasped as she opened her eyes to find herself floating above the earth.
“Ahhh” She squealed which made her father chuckle.
“Anna, goodbye” Zardos said as he and his daughter floated towards the blue tree which had suddenly opened up revealing the sky’s.
“Grandma, bye. I’ll be back soon” Cyra said. She waved at her grandmother and soon vanished into the tree.
“Where are we?” She asked her father.
“This is your land.” Zardos said.
“The sky?” Cyra asked with raised brows. Her father chuckled.
“No, look over there.” He said. Pointing at a place filed with different creatures. Cyra immediately gulped. The land below was beautiful and looked very magical with different beings going about their business. What fascinated her the most were the kid fairies and how they flew happily in the sky. She couldn’t help but smile at the beauty before her.
Suddenly, she felt her body transforming. Her troll form had appeared. “What’s happening to me?” She looked at the germs that had covered her skin as ornaments.
“You are a princess, and you in are in your land. Welcome to Dractica. Princess Cyra” Her father said. They were still floating in the sky. The other creatures had noticed princess Cyra and were already taking glimpses of her and the king. There was no doubt the princess of Dractica had returned.
“Lets land.” Her father said. He held her arm firmly and landed smoothly on the ground. Cyra sighed.
“Welcome your highness. Princess Cyra had returned to help us” Those were the words that echoed in the air as Cyra and her father landed. She could see a troll like her kind run over to where the king was standing.
“My king, you are back. The demon troll is losing his patience” One of the king subjects had said immediately he had sighed the king.
“Let’s go at once, I’m sure Andreas must be angry by now.” Her father held her arm and they began floating in the sky again along with the subject trailing behind them.
They floated for the ten minutes before they got to the kings palace. Crya’s mouth immediately went agape as she saw the large building in front of her. It was mad out of real gold and diamonds.
“This is your home Cyra” The king. She smiled weirdly as they both walked further into the surrounding of the palace which had different types of mystic flowers growing there and there. She didn’t say a thing to her father as she continued to walk towards the interior of the palace. The subject opened it at once and the king and Cyra walked in majestically.
The minutes the Guards and the maids sighed The king and Cyra. They all bowed. Cyra took swallowed a lump at the images before her. They all had horns just like her and they looked human as well.
“Where is prince Andreas?” The king asked his subject.
“He is in the garden. He wants to meditate.” The subject said.
“Okay you may leave now Kajo” The king said and the subject nodded and scurried away.
Cyra and her father took calm strides towards an indoor garden. She was nervous but still managed to stay put. She took in deep breaths as the doors to the gardens went open as soon as king Zardos commanded it to.
Before them was a creature. It was one that Cyra had never seen before, it wasn’t just a troll but a demon who had really red hair and was floating in the air. It was really beautiful to see, a smile immediately took over her face at the beautiful sight.
“Andreas” Her father called and the Demon opened his eyes in a calm mannerism. Cyra gulped as she saw a crystal clean blue eyes staring back at her father. The demon was really handsome and Cyra couldn’t help but just stare at him
Stupefied.
“King Zardos” His voice, yes it sent Shrills down her spine.
“Andreas thanks for coming, I’m sorry I kept you waiting” Her father said. The demon troll smiled.
“There’s no problem king zardos” Andreas said. His voice was calm and soothing.
“This is Cyra, she’s my daughter. The princess” King Zardos held Cyra by the shoulder. Andreas turned to look at her, his face was scarce of emotion. He didn’t say a thing to her and returned his gaze back to king Zardos.
“She doesn’t look like you.” Andreas said dryly. King zardos laughed which wasn’t normal to Cyra. What Andreas said had no sense of humor in it. She didn’t like the Demon troll.
“Cyra this is Prince Andreas of vantinza, the Demon troll.” He said to Cyra.
“Oh” She simply said. Andreas didn’t even hear her. His attention was fixated on the sky. The clouds were turning blue, which meant it was going to drop flowers soon. The fairies were at work again, Andreas rolled his eyes at how dumb the fairies acted at times. It was no secret that they were the dumbest of the land.
“Cyra, I’ll leave you with Andreas, he’ll show you around the mystic world.” King Zardos say. Indeed, Cyra didn’t like the idea of being with Prince Andreas. She didn’t like him one bit, because he was very arrogant.
“Father,” She called prince Zardos. It sounded foreign to her ears and beautiful to his. King Zardos felt a bit emotional when he heard his daughter call him father.
“Yes Cyra” He said.
“Be back soon” She simply said. He smiled. Cyra could feel that he loved her from the way he stared at her, she knew that he was her father indeed.
“Certainly my dear.” He said to her. He held her shoulder with a smile on his face, “Andreas, bring her back before dinner please” King Zardos said.
“I sure will” Andreas said. He stared at Cyra plainly and then at the sky. “The fairies here at dractica are crazy” Andreas said as soon as a red flower dropped on the ground. King zardos laughed.
“I guess they must be having a party” King zardos said. “I’ll see you and Cyra later then” King zardos said and suddenly began floating up in the sky. Cyra watched as her father waved at her and flew away. She watched him in awe as he disappeared into the sky.
“So you are the Lost Princess of Dractica?” The voice of Andreas made her flinch as she had forgotten about his presence.
“Yeah, I am” She said.
“Pathetic!” His expression was very annoying. He look at her plainly and disgusted.
“What do you mean?” Cyra asked angrily.
“I mean that you are not part of the troll village. You are a human, you are weak!” Andreas said. She formed a fist.
“I do not even care about the Trolls or Dractica entirely. in case you do not know. You can all perish for all I care” She said.
“Very childish,”He said while floating up slowly. Cyra, also began floating. She was getting the hang of the whole mystic floating.
“Come on let me show you around, I have something important to even show to you.” Andreas said.
“I do not know how to control my flying, can you hold my hands please?” She said. He rolled his eyes and held her hands calmly. His hands were really soft and sent shrills down her spine. She took in deep breaths and breathed out softly. He helped her float.
“Where are you taking me to?” She asked.
“To kill you.” He smirked “common, let’s go. There’s something important that I want to show to you, maybe after that you’ll hate Dractica and the poor trolls” He said. She didn’t even care. She simply held his arms firmly as they floated. They passed lots of streams and places. What fascinated her the most were the colors. From a black stream, to a purple screen. Her eyes widened when she saw really large moving rocks. Andreas had noticed her face. He didn’t like Cyra at all. She was really annoying him.
They continued floating until they arrived at a huge cave that stood like a prison with an iron gate guarding it. She immediately felt scared as she heard crowing of ravens. She immediately held his arm firmly. They flew and then landed on the solid ground of Cava Varanaz. Her eyes widened at the creature that stood at the front. He was tall and scary and looked a though he could swallow the mountain itself. She gulped and the walked calmly along with Andreas.
“Badandi, Open the gates” Andreas said with full authority oozing from his voice. Cyra couldn’t help but stare at the handsome demon as he spoke.
“Hmm,” Badandi took in a very deep breaths that let out a very bad stench. “Welcome, My prince. Open Gates!” Badandi’s voice echoed through the mountains as the iron gates opened on their own.
“Come,” Andreas stretched his hand over to her. She was very scared but still put her hands on his and walked into the gates. The dark room smelled like wet sand and it made her squeeze her nose.
“Lights!” Andreas said in a very calm tone and red lights filed the room. Cyra immediately placed her palms over her mouth.
“What is all this?” She said. Andreas shifted his gaze to her.
“This are trolls, stone trolls. This is what we will all become if we do not save the Troll village. All the Trolls will turn to this. Including you, your father and I” Andreas said. She didn’t utter a word as her gaze was fixated on woman troll and her baby in her arm. Andreas noticed her gaze on the woman and the decided to speak.
“That is Melanin, and the baby is her child. They both were the first to turn to stone. Everyday a troll turns to stone and is brought here. Kids, Old people and many more. Do you still not care about the trolls?” Andreas said.
“How do I stop this?” She asked breathlessly.
“I’ll teach you how to control the seven gems of the mystic world. You and I are the chosen one’s and we must do whatever it takes to stop all this from happening.” Andreas said. She nodded.
“When Do I begin training?” She asked.
“Tomorrow” She said.
“Okay, I’ll help you” She said. Andreas sighed happily.
“Tomorrow at midnight we start.” Andreas said. Her mouth immediately opens in awe.
“Midnight?. What the fuvk” She said. He chuckled.
“Midnight in Dractica are different, you’ll see.” Andreas said. She stared at him. She didn’t know what she has gotten herself involved in and the battles ahead of her. She did hope everything will go great.
