The Golden wand
1015 Words
I saw I came back to my roof within a flash, and she is gone.
I screamed-" Grandma? Grandma? help me please"
Aunt Nevlin woke up from the noise and came to the roof, she yelled-" What the hell are you doing? Your mom died, I get it, but don't become mad, who will make our breakfast if I had to send you to the asylum?"
I sensed the sarcasm and the threat in her voice, I came down and went to my room. I thought all night about what just happened, I couldn't believe, not only I am a witch but also the only heir of the Witchdom. But I need that golden wand to see my father and grandma again. Where do I find the sweetest memories of our family? Because I have never been with my family, it was just me and my mom. I spend the next few hours thinking about this, The next morning, I was back with the routine, making breakfast for them, help Shany to get ready for school, and do the household work. I completed my work and came back to my room, I started thinking about what grandma said to me again. Suddenly, an idea struck my mind. I remember mom once told me about the day I was born. That day, my father was present there, he holds me in his arms, and blessed me for a good future. After that he left us, so my family and the most amazing memory I have of my family is the place where I was born because that was the only place I had my full family. So I spend the next two days, finding the place I was born.
Without informing anyone, I went to search for that place. And finally, in the woods, after an hour or so I found a small cottage, probably abandoned and very old, that was the place I was born 17 years ago. At that time, this use to be my father's cottage. It was the same my mom described me. I entered that cottage, it was very dark, and I barely could have been anything, I tried to search the room as much as I can, and after some time, I saw a big wardrobe, covered with a cloth. I removed the cloth and opened the wardrobe, to my surprise it was a secret chamber somewhere, I entered and it was exactly like the place I have dreamed of. The big dark room, and empty. I knew the wand must be here somewhere. After some time of searching, I saw something shining in the dark, I followed that shining light and reached there. It was an amazing beautiful golden wand. Without any next thought, I took it, and just then I felt someone's presence in there. I turned back holding the wand close to my chest. And looked if anyone else is present there or not. And Suddenly, I saw a shadow coming towards me. It scared me a little, I couldn't see that person properly, as the room was pitch black, but I saw a creepy smile on that person. The person was flying towards me and I noticed the person's hands which were coming to take the wand, I recognized that person as the same person from my dream. I couldn't understand what to do, how to escape.
The voice said in a hushed tone-" Give me the golden wand"
I panicked and I screamed aloud. I whispered in fear-' Equimenous Wizarda '
And BOOM!!! My grandma arrived with a flash, and within a second I saw we were standing near the tree. I hugged her.
She looked at me in happiness and said-" Well done my dear, you have done it. This wand is one of our ancestors, The greatest witch, and she had last used it to fight evil. This has great powers, more than we can imagine. Not even your father has used it, because it was meant to be with you. You are a true heir and bloodline of Macduff."
I smiled but was still in shock at what just happened. I forgot to tell her about the shadow.
She said-" Now let's get back home, shall we?"
I looked at her and replied-" Can I please visit uncle Tom before we leave? He was a father figure to me."
She nodded and we flew back to Uncle-s home. Aunt Nevlin and Shany were shocked to hear the truth. But Uncle Tom was very happy.
I cane and hugged him-" Goodbye Uncle Tom, Thank you for taking care of me and my mother"
Uncle Tom wiped out his tears and said-" Goodbye my dear. Hope you have a safe and happy life. And say hello to your father from me okay?"
I replied-" Okay"
I looked towards aunt Nevlin and Shany and I said-" I forgive you"
They never spoke anything to me.
We left from there and came back near the big oak tree. Grandma looked at me and said-" Okay, Now get your wand ready and repeat after me ' Macduff's Entree '
I repeat-" ' Macduff's Entree ' "
And within a moment, we walked inside the tree, and we entered into Witchdom kingdom. It was a very beautiful place, with big landscapes, mountains, and flowers. I can feel the magic in the air. Grandma showed me our palace, It was huge, and I am going to live there. I couldn't believe it still. I saw my father flew over to us, he was crying in joy to see me. He looked at grandma with hope is it really me? His daughter? Grandma nodded and he runs over and hugged me, I hugged him back. For the first time, I found my father. I wish mom could be here with us. But I remember her last words " Everything will be alright" Yes it was, I finally found my family and I was happy.
My father said-" Let's go home okay"
And happily, we started a new life from there.
