Hey everyone, Chang-Chang here. In chapter six, Eldora explained what MK really is and what she is capable of and also that it was too risky for a human witch to train her. MK later confronted her brothers for lying to her whilst they were telling her the truth on what really happened. She then ran away from home since she couldn't live brothers who lie to their sister and decided to live with the Lunis family. She went to the hospital where Ariel gave her an old Blackwaters journal that would help her understand more about her heritage and how to control her powers. When she got home, she opened the journal and it flashed a blinding light into her eyes. On the side of the Galaxy a mysterious but dangerous stranger is informed about 'the awakening of the sage' and sends his minion to capture MK. The question is who is this stranger and what does he want with MK. Find out more in chapter seven.

ON WITH THE STORY!!!!!!!!!

CHAPTER SEVEN

Wait, wait, wait, wait. What just happened, MK rubbed her eyes after the flash faded. Her eyes were glowing a white colour. What's happening? Books don't do that. This whole witch stuff keeps getting weirder and weirder. She thought bewilderedly. 'MK, it's me. I heard you scream.' Lance knocked on her door. 'I need your help.' She opened the door for him. 'What is it?' he asked. 'I was at the hospital when my mom gave me this journal.' MK picked the journal and showed it to him. 'When I opened it flashed my eyes.'

'That's weird.' He said. 'I know right. This whole sage and family witch stuff is starting to scare me.' she replied quite frightened. 'I will be fine. Maybe you should sleep.' Lance suggested. 'Yeah maybe I should go to my nana for help tomorrow.' MK agreed with him. She got into bed. 'Good night.' Lance said as he switched of the light. 'Night.' MK yawned. With that Lance closed the door.

*^*^*^*^*DREAM*^*^*^*^*^*

MK found herself in a dark place. 'Where am i?' she asked herself as she looked around. She heard someone chuckle in a scary and evil way. 'Who's there?' She jumped. The chuckling continued. 'Show yourself.' She demanded as the chuckling turned into a laugh. 'If this is your idea of a joke you better knock it off 'cause it's not funny.' MK replied in a stern but whimpering voice. MK saw a black figure with a pair of glowing blood red eyes in the shadows. A man with ebony hair, white skin and blood red reptilian eyes emerged from the shadows with an evil smirk on his face. 'W-w-who are you?' MK replied frightened. 'Your worst nightmare.' He replied in a chilly way as he created black misty energy and blasted her. All MK heard was herself screaming.

*^*^*^*^* ^*^*^*^*^*^*

MK woke up sweating and panting. Lance ran into her room. 'What's wrong?' he asked worriedly. 'Nothing, it was just a dream.' MK rubbed her face. 'What happened?' he sat next to her. 'I was in this dark place, I heard chuckling and laughing then I saw this creepy man who shot some black energy at me,' MK told him. 'It felt so real.'

'Don't worry. It was just a dream.' Lance reassured her.

'It seemed that he wanted me.' MK added.

'Look, that man is just the figment of your imagination. He's not real.' Lance placed his hand on her neck. 'You're right. This family witch heritage stuff is starting to get to me.' MK agreed with him. Out of nowhere a creature stabbed Lance through the heart. Blood splattered on her face and she screamed.

*^*^*^*^*^*^*END OF DREAM*^*^*^*^*^*^*

MK woke up panting and sweating. 'Gosh.' She sighed. She checked the time and it read 6:30am. She took out her sketchbook and started drawing.

'Morning guys.' Ilana walked into the kitchen where Lance and MK sat whilst Mr Lunis was preparing breakfast. 'Morning.' MK greeted her. Lance just gave her a nod. 'Did you guys sleep well?' Ilana asked. 'Barely.' MK groaned.

'Why is that?'

'Don't ask. I don't want to talk about it.' MK told her. 'Okay.' Ilana shrugged. Ilana glanced at the sketch that MK was drawing. 'What's that?' she asked MK. 'Oh nothing. It's just a man I saw in my dreams.' MK shrugged. 'He looks rather scary looking.' Ilana replied a little creeped out. Lance looked at the sketch and asked, 'What did he want from you?'

'I don't know. He tried to kill me.' MK told him 'It felt so real.'

'Don't worry it was just a dream.' Ilana reassured her. MK stood up and made her way out. 'Where are you going?' Lance followed. 'I'm going out to find answers.' MK said. 'I'm coming with you.' Lance told her. 'No I can handle myself.' MK kindly interjected. 'Hey, I wanna be there for you. You can't do it alone.' Lance told her. He's right. No matter how crazy, creepy and dangerous this whole family witch heritage stuff is, I need help. She thought. 'Okay.' She said. 'Cool, let me go get my keys.' Lance made his way upstairs. 'Lance.' MK stopped him. He looked at her. 'Thank you.' MK smiled a little.

*****

Lance and MK were silent on their way to Eldora's house. 'So how does it feel to be a witch and all?' Lance broke the silence. 'Scary, confusing, dangerous.' MK chose her words carefully. 'Why is that?' He asked. 'My brothers lying to me, a journal flashing a light into my eyes and a dream of a scary man who's out to kill me. What more do you expect?' MK looked at him. 'Don't worry about it. You'll get used to it.' Lance gave her a reassuring smirk. 'But this is different.' MK said. 'Okay, look at it this way. Back at military school, our training coach would wake us up at 1am to run some rounds.' Lance told her. 'Gosh.' She exclaimed.

'Make us do 100 push ups with 2kg sacks of sand on our backs.' Lance added. 'Ouch, that had to hurt.' MK remarked.

'And walk on burning coal with our bare feet.' Lance finished.

'Yikes.' MK covered her mouth.

'It was painful the first days but I adjusted to it and got used to it.' He told her. 'How did you survive?' She asked curiously.

'Properly. But it wasn't easy.' He replied.

'It seems that you were at a torture camp instead of military school if you ask me.' MK told him truthfully. 'That's how military schools do.' Lance smirked at her. 'But not all of them.' MK said. 'Point taken,' Lance agreed with her as he chuckled. 'But it also taught me to be bold and strong.' Very strong indeed. She thought. 'We're here.' Lance parked the car. The pair walked to the door. MK knocked on the door and waited. After 5 minutes, Eldora opened the door. 'Mary! What a pleasant surprise.' Eldora smiled. 'Hi nana.' MK returned the smile. 'I see you brought your boyfriend.' She looked at Lance. 'NANA?!' MK shrieked as she blushed. 'I'm just teasing. Come in.' Eldora chuckled. They entered the living room. 'Do you want tea and cake?' She asked them. 'No we're good.' They both replied. 'So what brings you here?' Eldora sat down. 'I want to talk about my paternal family.'

'What do you want to know about them?'

'Everything. Origins, history, anything that has to do with them.'

Eldora sat up straight. 'Your father's family are a race of witches from another planet. They originated from Galaluna, a sister planet to earth that is a few light years from here,' she started.

'How did they end up being on Earth?' MK asked.

'They had been falsely accused for the murder of the Queen of Galaluna. The King sent his army to raid all four tribes. The survivors were put on exile and only to return to Galaluna on special occasions.' Eldora explained.

'Is the anything else you know about them?' MK pressed on.

'I'm afraid that's all I know. I'm sorry.' Eldora replied sadly.

'It's okay nana.' MK gave her a reassuring smile. Then MK got an idea. 'Nana, do human witches by any chance have a facility which holds corrupted and traitorous witches.' She asked. 'Why yes...' Eldora paused then said, 'No, I will not allow you to go to that corrupted and ruthless aunt of yours for answers.'

'But she is the one who is holding them as prisoners somewhere. She might have the answers I need.' MK pointed out

'Mary, I know that this whole family witch business is making you confused and that you wanna know the truth of your family and heritage but Aisha is the least person you can ever go to for help.' Eldora told her.

'I have to.' MK replied.

'Mary, that woman is dangerous.' Eldora warned her.

'Please, nana.' MK pleaded. Eldora looked at Lance. 'You can trust her.' Lance reassured her. Eldora sighed then said, 'If you wanna look for Aisha, you'll have to go to The Dagon Port. It's one of the places where witches like her belong.' 'Thanks, nana.' MK hugged her. 'Please be careful. Even though she's kept in one of the most secured prisons, I don't want you to get hurt.' Nana told her.

'Don't worry; she'll be in good hands.' Lance reassured her.

'She better be. It would hurt me even more to lose my son-in-law's sweat little angel.' Nana caressed MK's cheek.

'What makes you think that Aisha would actually tell you what she knows?' Lance asked her on the way. 'I am the Sage. The most powerful witch in the universe, right?' MK asked. 'Yeah, I guess so.' He shrugged. 'So I can force the truth out of her.' MK said. 'Whoa, force won't make her spill the beans.'

'It's worth a try.'

'Okay, why should you be violent to her?'

'She nearly killed me, poisoned my mind and blinded me, killed my papa and Bobby, caused my mama a lot of pain. What is your reason for me not to?'

'I'm concerned because you'll end up being as psychotic as she is.' Lance told her. He's right. I don't want to be anything like her. She thought. 'Sorry, I'm just angry at what she did to my family.' MK looked away. 'It's okay. I understand but what she did shouldn't change the type of person you are.' Lance said. MK looked at him and said, 'Okay.'

'We're here.' Lance said as they approached a fortress.

'This is a restricted area. What is your business?' Said one of the guards.

'We came to see Aisha Winters.' MK told him. The guards opened the gates.

******

'She's in here. But be careful, she's dangerous.' The guard opened the door. Lance and MK got into the room where there was a containment cell where Aisha was being kept in. 'Aw, if it isn't my sweet little angel and her bastard of a friend.' Aisha replied sarcastically. 'I am not your sweet angel anymore.' MK replied bitterly. 'What do you want from me?' Aisha asked. 'The Galalunian witches, where are they?' MK asked. 'What makes you think I know where they are?'

'Because you are the one who is keeping them as prisoners somewhere.' MK pointed out.

'Why should I tell you where they are? You have no clue of who they really are.'

'That's for you to tell me.' MK crossed her arms. Aisha sighed then said, 'You'll have to wait till tomorrow during my trial. That's when you will learn the whole truth.'

'Where are the Galalunian witches?' MK asked.

'Why do you care so much about them? Is it because that your bastard of a father is one.'

'Don't test my patience.'

'Your father knew that you were the sage after him and he didn't even train you how to use your powers. How shameful,' Aisha taunted 'Maybe he wanted you to lose control over your powers because he wanted to keep his title.'

'You're lying.'

'Am I? Then why hasn't he contacted you through his spirit or whatever. Maybe he doesn't love you.' Aisha replied coldly. MK couldn't bare her anger. She had gone to far.MK used her magic to walk through the cell and grabbed Aisha by the neck. 'You better tell me what I to hear or this is the last time you'll ever see Earth again.' MK hissed as she tightened her grip on Aisha's neck. Lance couldn't believe what he was seeing. 'Where. Are. They?' she asked with a lot of fury in her voice. Her eyes started glowing. 'They are at the Sanctuary just across the cemetery but you won't get them out.' Aisha choked out. MK tightened her grip. Aisha was on the point of dying. 'MK, stop.' Lance caught her attention. She looked at him with her furious look. 'Don't be the monster you fear you are.' Lance said with a worried face. MK's expression softened as the glow in her eyes started to fade. She released Aisha's neck from her grip. Aisha started coughing and gasped for air. MK looked down then looked at Lance.

******

MK didn't say anything after they left the Dagon Port. 'Don't blame yourself.' Lance broke the silence. 'I almost choked her to death.' She said without looking at him. 'You were angry. Even I would have done that.' He said. 'The scary thing is that I actually enjoyed it.' MK replied quite frightened. 'Don't worry. At least you know where to find the Galalunian witches.' Lance reassured her. Lance looked at her and it didn't seem it helped. He made a right turn. 'Where are we going?' MK asked. 'You'll see.' He smirked at her. He parked at the hill top. 'Come on,' He said as he got out. 'Wow.' MK replied breathlessly at the view. 'It's beautiful. What is this place?'

'People call it the "Christmas view".' Lance told her. He took MK and sat down with her. They had been silent for a long time. Lance looked at MK saw that she was very sad. 'What's wrong?' He asked. 'I can't be the Sage. I am so scared.' She bursted into tears. 'MK,' Lance started. 'What if I lose control over my powers and emotions? What if I end up hurting people or even worse? Kill them.' She sobbed as she stood up and moved away from him. 'MK, you won't kill anyone.' Lance stood up and came closer to her. 'No, do get any closer. Please, I'll hurt you.' She moved away from him. 'MK,' Lance started, 'You won't hurt anyone. You know why? It's because I believe in you. I believe that you would be the best Sage there will ever be just as you father was. Just believe that you will.' Lance moved closer to her, took her hands into his and looked deeply into her eyes. 'Okay.' She said. Lance saw a rose bush nearby. He went and unplucked one of the red roses and gave it to her. 'For you.' He smirked at her. Her eyes widened. 'T-Thank you.' She took it. They stared at each other for a long time. MK's eyes were twinkling as she looked into Lance's black eyes. Lance placed his hands on her shoulders and brought her closer to him. Lance placed his forehead on hers. Oh boy. He's going to kiss me, she thought as her cheeks were turning red. Lance closed his eyes and gently kissed her cheek, then her forehead. His lips were a few inches close until his phone rang. He saw a text message that read,

Where are you?

'Let's go.' Lance said as he walked to the car. So close, she thought disappointed.

Woooooohoooooo, finally done. Man this was longer than I expected. Anyway, what gonna happen next. Is that creepy ebony haired stranger going to haunt MK again? Is MK going to find answers? Stay tuned for chapter eight. R&R
