Troll princess

Time

Fight

Cyra woke up feeling really dizzy, she hadn’t had anything to eat for a while and was extremely tired. She got out of bed and took a shower. After she was done she then magically changed her dress. She was lucky she learnt this part of her magic. It was fun. She could get whatever she wanted just by wising for it. Indeed she liked that allot.

“Cyra, Can I come in?” She heard the voice of her father say from outside. She immediately ran and opened the door to meet the happy looking face of her father. King Zardos smiled at his daughter cheerfully.

“How was class yesterday?” Her father asked. She sighed loudly and went back into the room and slumped lazily on the bed.

“Very annoying!. That demon troll is a pervert.” She said. Her father bursted into laughter at his daughters facial expression.

“Come let’s go and eat, I had food cooked for you.” He said. He helped her off the bed and smiled when he realized something.

“You crafted this dress of magic right?” He asked and she nodded shyly.

“Yeah dad, is it beautiful?” She asked and her father nodded. “You imagined it right?” He asked and she nodded.

“You’re trying!” He said.

“Thank you dad. May we go please?, I’m really hungry” She said.

“Sure,” He said and she began to float calmly.

“Why float when we can disappear?” Her father asked. He held her hand and magically they found theirselves in front of a feast. Cyras mouth began to water.

“This are all human food, Trolls eat what human eat?” She asked. Her father chuckled.

“No, we do not. I made them bring this for you” her father said. A smile immediately washed over her. She was happy to see all her favorite meals. She immediately took a sit next to him.

“How did they make this?” She asked.

“Magic is the way” Her father winked. She immediately dipped her hands into the muffins and began to devour them. She was really happy to be eating after a very long day.

“So father, my mind is acting strange. I feel like I’ve been here for a while month”

she said.

“It’s the magic, it will adorn your soul soon. Don’t worry, you’ll get used to the time” He said.

“What’s that you are eating?” She asked when she saw him munching on a pink round food. It was covered in sprinkles and sweets.

“It’s fairy dough, wanna have some?” Her father asked. She nodded and he passed it to her. She immediately dipped it in her mouth and she couldn’t help but feel really happy. “This is so good!” She said. Suddenly she felt a strange presence taking forming besides her. Immediately, Andreas appeared. She gasped. Her father chuckled but Andreas rolled his eyes, what an annoying demon troll. She thought.

“Good morning my king” Andreas greeted her father. Her father smiled loving at him before dipping another blue fairy dough into his mouth.

“Good morning Princess” He said very dryly to Cyra. She rolled her eyes and continued eating.

“Morning!” She said inaudibly. He didn’t even care. He immediately magically made a fairy dough spear in his hand.

“I hope you have eaten much Princess, we are going to begging our very first intensive class today.” Andreas said. She began to choke from the anger that had washed over her. She didn’t like Andreas That much, he was really blunt and rude. He never smiles and always keeps a straight face while speaking. She hated him allot.

“I’m done.” She said while staring at her dad. Her dad stared at her hopefully and then smiled. He was happy his daughter was going to help him save his land. She got up to her feet and so did Andreas.

“See you soon father.” She said before magically disappearing due to Andreas spell. She found herself standing on a field surrounded by flowers. Talking flowers.

“This is so beautiful.”

She said. She didn’t hear Andreas say a thing. He was simply watching her stare at the flowers like a child. He rolled his eyes.

“Today your aim is to see if you can concentrate, yes I wanna see if you can create magic in tension.” He said.

“But there is no tension over here, in fact it’s peaceful.” She said.

“Wait for it, now I want you to conjure a rock. By now I know you can wish for things, now wish for a rock.” He commanded. She didn’t fail to hear the flair of authority in his voice. She just decided not to pay attention to it and wished for a large rock. A grey rock appeared before her. She sighed.

“Now imagine lifting it up.” He said. She did as told calmly and imagined lifting the rock. Suddenly she heard Andreas yell. It was a very deep husky sound that the flowers emulated. They began to yell too, the rock dropped on the ground. She immediately placed her palms over her ears and Andreas chuckled. She turned to find him smirking devilishly like the demon he was.

“What was that for?” She yelled. The plants were still yelling loudly. She yelled with her palms covering her ear.

“You have to learn how to Concentrate like this. So calm down and lift the rock again.” His voice magically echoed. She was already getting fed up of the mystic world. Everything was scary and weird. In what land do plants emulate what people do. Yeah, the mystic world.

She decided to concentrate on lifting the rock again but the screaming was too much. She yelled the word ‘stop’ really loud and everything paused. The rock paused in mid air and so did the mystic birds that were flying. Everything stoped moving except her and Andreas.

“What did you do?” Andreas half yelled. “s**t, you just paused time!” He said.

“I didn’t mean to, it was so loud.” She tried defending herself.

“This is really bad, you have to undo it right away or else the gems will lose strength and would you and I” He said.

“But I do not how to.” She said.

“Try something, try saying continue!” He said. She yelled continue loudly and nothing changed. Everything had paused in mid air. She immediately swallowed a lump.
