Chapter 31: CLAUDIA ON HER WAND

Misteria breathed deeply on the ground with her arms in it as she stumbled on her feet, Explosions were everywhere in Misteria as the lady of hour laughed and giggled, Misteria's building and it's name already fallen, Misteria questions herself, "When did this happen? Why did it happen? Damn those witches"

Misteria remembered and reminisce the memory why did it happen, it started when she was at the back helding of the forces of evil, she held her wand as she rode the horse at that moment she points her wand at those monsters and magic released at the wand, zapping the monsters with every power linked to Misteria's anger and emotion, the magic was in the form of lightning with red color, and she produced fire in her wands as she get near to the monsters, the guardian witches uses psychic magic and frost, pushing the monster's away and making them freeze, as Misteria fires her all as the other witches, something felt weird of the monsters, they broke the ice, they were immune to fire and they held the zap quite quickly and the psychic, the monster then halts and produce spikes in their back as there skin was rough as a badger and big as an elegant, they throw the spikes at the witches , as Misteria made a shield spell and the others, they were blown off by such spine creating massive explosions and huge smoke everywhere, the shield didn't hold off, Misteria coughs because , as the horse neighs, the horse tries to raise high and drops off Misteria quickly, the horse ran quickly as it was afraid, Misteria continues to cough as she lands on the ground , she looks at other witches and saw their wand, absorbing the smoke at the same with light on it.

Misteria uses the wand to absorbed the smoke produced by such monsters, they never know when to attack, the monsters throw another spikes explosions were seen again and there's smoke everywhere than usual, Misteria worries about the others as she couldn't care about herself, she looks for other witches who wasn't seen in the smoke, she goes on a chase she covers her mouth and nose with her cloth on her arms, she founds a witch on the ground staring on it , coughing and feels like hallucinating as it spat blood, the witch spoke a word as she continues to cough loudly,"hack, hack, princess, are you the princess?, If you are, hack, cover your mouth and nose you shouldn't have been here, hack", there's more blood than usual as she spat, "don't breathe such gas", a woman screamed from afar and both of them heard it, the woman continued to explain as Misteria listens carefully,"listen, you must go away from this smoke, this smoke is deadly", the woman then faces Misteria, Misteria was surprised and steps back a little, the woman's face had a little skin of the monster as it was rough, and the woman felt pain, the woman is slowly turning into a monster,"you'll turn into a monster like me, if you are still here go go go", Misteria felt worried at the same time she is scared, she saw the witches wand, and it turns black bit by bit, the woman was surprised and tears fell off in her eyes, drops by little by little, the wand suddenly turns into an ash flying away, once a wand turns black and ash it means they don't have the right to held it and not worthy to be a witch, the woman still coughs, Misteria heard a break on bones surrounding her especially the woman, the woman hurriedly turns fast at it makes crack noises each time, "run Misteria" the woman said to her, Misteria steps little by little and ran away as fast as she could covering her mouth, the whole place we're surrounded by such smoke, Misteria doesn't know what to do anymore.

She held her wand bright as day, then she absorbs it rapidly and fast all of the smoke, but explosions continued leaving her magic uncontrollable and cannot focus seriously about her magic, she tries and tries again, but she continues to get out of focus, smoke and explosions appear more, she runs and looks for a higher place or place that hasn't a slight of smoke as she couldn't get a focus breath anymore as she covers her mouth and nose too long, as she runs she absorbs it quickly, she climbs up a tallest tower, every inch of her climbing felt the burden and pain using only her one hand, step by step was hard, as she finally made it to the top of the tower despite the pain, she uncover her mouth and nose and breathes free, as the wind flows in the sky, she felt the fresh air and cannot think anymore but others, she looks down and all of Misteria is in pile of smoke, she looks at it as explosions continues as it bombed there and there, she is scared by the events happening, she sat down and stayed there, she waited there for someone or something that will happen out of the blue, till evening at the moon as it was the fullest of it's hour, Misteria stares at her wand, figures out a plan carefully , she was curious of the wands magic and something powerful she felt in it, she continues to heard sound of scream and explosions, Misteria looks paranoid of it and felt afraid and ashamed at the same time.

she starts to cough, and she was surprised by the blood on her cloth, her chest feels weird at the same time, her body aches, she is stunned and scared of what's happening in her body, she cannot bear to see it, she stills held her wand dearly, she uses any magic to ease that pain and she is worried that she will turn into a monster, she panic anytime , A spark of blue came out of the wand suddenly with smoke and sparklers, she breathes it and inhale it, as if she had no other choices left, the pain was slowly gone and her chest felt relieved, skin of the monster appeared on he but as she breathes the blue smoke again on her wand, it becomes to fade slowly with white ashes going to the sky as it magically turns into thin air, she uses the wand again, but there's nothing left she tries to figure out something, she realized that the blue smoke can heal everyone on Misteria, she tries her wand, she pressure herself and talk to the wand itself, "why can you do that thing you've done from before, please I need your power wand, I will break you if you don't released", Misteria felt dissatisfied and looks at other side while holding it, "please don't break me", in a scared tone, Misteria heard it, she looks for the voice , she thought she was crazy and was crazy enough to stare at the wand and tells it, "was that you?, I think I heard you?" She looks around, she circulates the tower, another voice heard, "nope that wasn't me silly"

Misteria really thinks she heard it from the wand and stares at it, "wand are you alive?" Misteria felt ridiculous and laughs it off "I must be crazy now, what happened , this must be the monster effect process of healing" she heard it again, "not that too silly hehehe" it jiggles, Misteria was stunned and now was really sure she heard it from the wand and talks to it, the voice felt like a child voice to her with a friendly tone manner, "wand, I think I heard you, for the last time was it you?", The wand giggles as it lights and glow very white,"its me silly, your wand" it chuckles, Misteria replied and said, "oh okay", then a second there Misteria faints as if the craziness got into her mind, a second later she felt conscious again in a minute, she saw a girl right in front of her glowing ns dress in white, the girl was pretty and her aura was pleasant,"wake up silly, wake up"Misteria ask her suddenly "who are you? are you threat, a foe, or on a good side? you've made me crazy, did you know that I look like a fool". she replied with a childish tone, "well I am not a threat not a foe, but don't know if I am on a good side, and then who are you?", Misteria feels familiar of such girl, she then ask again, "first who are you?" The girl replied then quickly, "no, silly who are you?", They repeat over and over again asking each other's name, Misteria gave up , she sighs deeply and tells her in such formal and elegant way,"I am the eledest daughter of king heather and queen Crestia, you might heard of them, or something, but I have 4 sisters and they are needed to be taken care of exactly now who are you", The girl then replied to her,"well I am just a nobody here who just came to your wand for some reason, I got here recently when you were in pain exactly or screaming maybe but I got here , in your wand, I had made my world in there", Misteria felt weird of this unknown entity, she felt the urge to ask more but ask her one thing,"did you something to me when I almost turned into a monster?" She replied, "oh that, when I saw smoke was absorbing it was just absorbing, but in there I used magic to reingeneer this smoke, and it turned into blue smoke I felt it was healthy, when you were turning into something, I tried it to you through the wand, blue zap appear, I guess my reingeneering works well how about you, how are you feeling?"

"I am feeling great thanks to your reingeneering magic, I think it healed me, thank you", Misteria felt grateful and ask her one more time, "who are you really?" "I told you I'm know one but just a stranger, I came here abruptly", Misteria felt clueless and thinks thoroughly in the situation she suddenly added to the girl,"do you have a name, I can name you? do you have parents?", Misteria looks at her as if she is 10 or 12, "Uhm name if you like, I'm just in your wand, name me if you want to, I love names", she claps slowly an dolittle out of joy of Misteria naming her, Misteria thinks of the name and ask her,"is Claudia okay?, I think it's very special, and very catchy", the girl hugged her suddenly and she was joyful of the name, "I am happy, you can now call me Claudia", Misteria touches her arm and felt comfort by her, she holds her shoulders and she tells her upfront on her face, "Can I ask you something?" "Yes, anything", "can you reingeneer many smoke in my wand when I absorbed it to your magic on it and turns the citizens of Misteria back to normal?".

"I think I can do it but we must prepare, something might happen", Misteria graves her a sign of yes and tells Claudia, "Claudia can you get back here on my wand?, We must move now we will never know the enemies attack", Claudia agreed and a bit of glow , she was absorbed and gets back to the wand, the wand glows and still Fairless in white, Misteria, tears off her clothing and used it to cover her mouth and nose, She held the wand, and tests it's magic, she swooshes it slowly and magic forms in blue sparkle and glow, she was amazed by such magic, she prepares to go down now, she must left the tower, as she walks out, she still see light of explosions out of nowhere, and she confidently climbs down the tower bits by bits, the smoke is getting near her as she goes down, she trips on of the brick of the tower and falls on the ground but she stands firmly as it was only small steps to climb down completely, she prepares her wand, the wand glow and absorbs such smoke as she walks in the darkest smoky night.
