Isabel The Lightning Princess - Chapter 12 Gandera 3

The King kiss little Isabel on her forehead and nod towards his wife.

She nods back and got ready to create the portal, soon the portal opens.

“Get in quick, please protect her Eli, Aiden”.

“We would with our life your majesties, good bye”.

With that, into the portal they went…

But just as Elizabeth entered the portal, the doors to the ritual room flung open. And in came Claudius and his dark mages as well as some of his soldiers.

“Now” shouted the queen and Aiden rushed in with the things he carried.

But a dark light struck at him, injuring his left arm, he performed a spell and looks at the queen, she nods her head and he released the spell, a big ball of light shone and spread everywhere from where he was at the portal. He successfully cut the dark magic on his arm and rid his body of the magic so Claudius won’t be able to locate the portal and he jumped in.

“A canceling spell, of that magnitude. Noooooo…” The portal closes before he gots up.

“You are going no where Claudius” the queen said as she shot a gaze at him.

Everyone who fell from the power of the spell, sprang back up.

“Claudius you have the guts coming into my kingdom” the king said, unsheathing his word from his sheath.

“You mean, soon to be my kingdom”.

“Not on my watch”.

“Then you would die. I’m taking what’s mine back from you right after I kill you”.

“She belongs to me and no one else”.

“You tricked her Axel, she would never have fallen for you. Perhaps you cast a spell on her, everyone knew I was the one she loved and not you”.

“Get a grip of yourself, how can I use a spell on the greatest mage? Do I look like a mage? I never tricked Isabella. And she never loved you” he said back to Claudius.

“I never loved you and I was never tricked by Axel, I took you as a brother” Queen Isabella explained.

“That’s not true, we were so close” he said walking closer to her.

“We were, we were master’s favorite students, we trained together, you were there for me as I was for you, but I’d always liked Axel and you knew it”.

“That’s not true, you started liking him when he saved your life”.

“You claimed you love me, but you risked my life when you decided to practice dark magic. If Axel wasn’t passing by that day, I would have died when the magic spell went wrong. I warned you but you wouldn’t listen. You left me no choice, you disobeyed master. Never practice dark magic, it would corrupt you. Those were master’s words to us all the time, yet you stumbled upon the book and thought it nice to practice. You couldn’t be my friend anymore” she explained.

“He stole you from me”.

“I’ve always loved Isabella, but she was with you all the time as you were both mages and you practiced together. And then I saw you hurt her… ”

“It was a mistake” he said cutting Axel short.

“If you loved her you would have listened to her. I was there, I heard everything. You were jealous of her, you said she didn’t want you practicing dark magic because she never wanted you to be the most powerful mage, to take her place”.

“That’s not true”.

“I was there Claudius, you said she thinks she is so high and mighty, that you would show her and everyone you are better and when you cast the spell, you noticed the dark energy entering you, it was too much for you and then you went berserk. She was going to help you, but what did you do? You shot your dark magic at her”.

“It was a mistake”he shouted cutting him short yet again.

“A mistake? I don’t think so”.

“Its true, I wanted her to stay back, as I raised my hand to stop her… ”

“You injured her, not once, you were about doing it the second time when I pushed her away and blocked your magic with my sword and it shot back at you”.

“When I noticed, I was shocked and wanted to go to her, but the powers were going out of control and I shot at her again. It was a mistake, you came and saved her. You took it all… You… Axel”.

As he gets more angry, a black ball of dark magic surrounded him and Axel rushed to the front to shield Isabella.
