The Truth
Mitch's POV:
I knew somthing was wrong the minute I woke up. I wake up to see a bundle of black feathers...no Alli collapesed on the floor. I rush over to see if she had a pulse. She did, but it was very weak. I wake up the others, then tell them to go look at Alli. When I get back to them, Alli is already sitting up. She is just looking around and saying, "Wha-what is going on?" over and over again. When we get her out of the sun and into the trees, I hear a strange hackle. Alli seems to know who it came from, because she straightens and says, "Not now!" before she collapses. Jerome checks to see if she has a pluse again, while Zek, Vikk, and I start to make circle around them with our swords in hand. Right before Jerome could tell us, Alli jumps up, bow in hand, and says "Duck," as she shot an arrow into the trees. We hear a scream of pain, then Alli grabs my hand and starts running in the oppsite direction and says "Run, before she catches us!" and takes us to a cave that we didn't know about.
Five Minutes Later...
Mitch's POV:
All of us were phanting ,besides Alli who was on watch at the opening of the cave. I looked at Alli and asked, "Was the voice we heard the person who knocked you out?" She just looked at all of us and said, "She didn't get one of ya'll with one of her spells, did she?" with true worry in her voice. I notice another thing that Notch had changed about her, just now, her voice. When she was talking playfully toward us last night, she seemed to be prepared to be hit, hard. And now, the same image affected her voice as she asked us if we're ok, like she was afraid. I said, "No," then went to the ground with my hands over my ears. I didn't remember feeling like power was surging through me ,like when Alice tried to blind us, but aperently I did. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to hear strong ringing in my ears that made dots appear before my eyes. I felt a hand on my sholder for a second, then it was gone...along with everything else. The last thing I see is Alli saying, "Hold on," then everything went dark. I open my eyes to a room that looks like it's made of white whool and realize that I am laying down on the floor. I quickly stand up and dust myself off. "Hey," said a faint voice...that sounded alot like Alli's! I turn around to see a shirming version of Alli, and she lifts a finger at me. Then I freaze in place, and she says, "Don't move, it will only make it worse," then glides over to stand in front of me. She stares at me for a minute, then says, "Where does it hurt?" I laugh, because a gost version of Alli asks me if I'm okay. I look at her and say, "I must be dead, because this is just not real." She looked at me, then said, "So I can't use my magic to help find out what's wrong with my friends?" Then I feel bad, knowing she's just trying to help me. I decided to answer her, "My ears started to ring before I saw spots in my eyes, then I passed out." She just nodded her head, then walked over to me and said, "It's real simple to fix, just a quick healing spell. After that all that there is left is for you to rest," she said after she flicked her wrist, and I felt a surge of warmth spreed through me as she used a healing spell on me. "And to answer your question from eairler, yes, she is the one who knocked me out. Anymore questions before I go?" she said as she walked toward a door that wasn't there before. "Umm, yes," I say ,and she stops and turns around and says, "Well, ask it. The time we have right now is taking away time that I could be using to heal you.," with a stern face. So I quickly say, "It's nothing, just somthing that I had on my mind," remembering what I thought about her voice,and how it sounded as if she had been hurt for asking questions. She blushed for a second there, then said, "You know that I hear all thoughts that go on in here, right?" It was my turn to blush and say, "Umm, you don't have to answer the question...if you don't want to, ya know." She bites her bottem lip, then says, "Ya'll have every right to know, ya'll trusting me so soon after I-I tried to kill ya'll," she looked like she was trying real hard not to cry, then she looked like she could kill someone without careing. "The first time I was out of the hospital, I tried to help someone who got hurt..." she said, showing what true fear looked like in her eyes, "Notch, he-he took me to the side and he...he showed me my worst fear, but I'm over it now," she said like it was a matter of fact that she just got over her worst fearl like that. "I hope you don't mind me asking, but what was it?" She just looked me in the eye and said, "It was that I would fail Notch, but I'm glad that's not it anymore. Or I wouldn't be able to do the next part of my plan..." Then she seemed to think against saying it and said, "Tell the guys to tell you when you wakeup, your healed, by the way, night," and after she said that, everything went dark.
Alli's POV:
I looked at Zek, Vikk, and Jerome, then said, "I'm going to turn myself in, Hackle has probly already told them of my betraly," and I start to walk out the cave, then I turned and said, "There is a chest fulled with all the stuff you need just incase you run into trouble, bye" then I fly out of the room, without looking back. I think to myself, "Is this the last time that I'll ever see my friends?" Then the part of me that still is back at Notch's manision, "Am I really going to dishonnor Notch?" "It dosn't matter," I tell mysel, "Now all that matters is Notch paying for what he did..." Then the castle came into view. "Here goes everything," I say to myself I do a hawk-dive to the entrance.
