Chapter 8
Hayden was freaked out, and relieved, after Beatrix explained what on earth was going on. Freaked out that he's some sort of strange magical being, but relieved that Beatrix liking Shian was just some spell.
"Wait, so we've been sleeping near a fire wielding, well you, and hung out with you for all of our lives? How does that happen?" Sadie exclaimed, very loudly.
"Well, like I said. The well let's you see the magic, so even if I did create a flame, you wouldn't have seen it because you hadn't been in the well yet." Beatrix said.
"Makes sense to me. Just one question. Who am I?" Hayden asked.
"Well, since I am the one with powers of fire, you either are super strong or can control the dead." Beatrix said.
"I hope I'm the strong one, because if I'm the controller of the dead, I'm gonna have to wear black. And I don't look good in black." Sadie said.
"Sure you do, Sadie." Beatrix said.
"No. It'll make me look dead too!" Sadie said, "I'll turn all pale."
"Well, that would make sense if you looked dead if you controlled the dead," Hayden muttered.
"Shut up, Hayden." Sadie said, shoving him over.
"Geez, Sadie. No need to get so pushy." Hayden said, rubbing his arm. Just at that moment, Shian walked into the clearing. Hayden started to get angry, He knew he was trying to help the forest, but he could have just kidnapped them and brought them here, not mess up their friendship, he thought.
"Shian, we need to chat." Hayden said, walking up to him.
Shian cleared his throat, "Yes, we do. Let me tell you who you are in the prophecy. Sadie, you control the dead and Hayden you are the one with a lot of strength."
"Aw, come on!" Sadie said.
"You should change into your outfits that make sense to your powers and out of those fancies." Shian said. He snapped his fingers and the three changed into different outfits. Hayden looked down and saw he had on a brown athletic tank top and some brown athletic pants. He glanced at Beatrix. Her hair was in a side braid and she had on a red athletic top and some athletic shorts that matched. She had on some red tennis shoes as well. Sadie, to everybody's suspicions, was wearing the same outfit as Beatrix just in black. Her arms were crossed.
"Now I look really pale." Sadie complained.
"Oh, be quiet." Hayden said. She should just get over it, he thought. He also thought that Beatrix looked still beautiful in her outfit. He was hoping to maybe tell her how he feels sometime soon, now that she doesn't like Shian anymore.
"Now, we need to see the queen so she knows you're here." Shian said, "Let's go!" And with that, the four hiked into the wilderness towards the castle.
