Isabel The Lightning Princess - Chapter 7 They Came For Her 2

In Ariadna’s house..

“What did you tell them? ”

“Who are you? How did you do those huhhh, you were disappearing and appearing. ” asked Desmond..

“They saved our lives, we owe them. Thank you for helping us. ” Ryan said to the couple.

“You are welcome. I believe the word you are looking for is Teleportation. What did you tell them about Isabel? ” asked Ariadna.

“Where she lives. I’m sorry but they were going to kill him. ”

“Its all right. What’s your name? ”

“Ryan ma. I’m really sorry. ”

“Its okay Ryan. What were you doing with Isabel in the first place? Why did she go berserk? ”

The boys looked down, feeling sorry about their earlier actions.

“Did she stutter? ”

“No sir. ” Desmond replied shakingly.

“Well… ”

“Jamie.. You are frightening them. ” said Ariadna.

“We, we just wanted to teach her a lesson that’s all.. We just bullied her.. ” lied Ryan.

“You liars, you wanted to **** her, you called that bullying?. Jason called me. ” Catherine shouted walking in their line of sight.

“How come you are here? ” asked Desmond.

“You should shut your mouth before I cut it off. This is my home. Thank your stars my parents found you. ”

“You mean.. They are your parents? ” asked the shocked Desmond.

“No one would know you are dumb if you don’t talk Desmond.. And you… Gosh I hate you guys. Isabel could be in trouble. ”

“Hey dear, she is fine, she’s with Jasper remember. ” she walks off and comes back with a tray containing orange juice and four glasses.

“Here drink, it would give you strength. Rest here, you can go home afterwards ok”.

She pours the juice in their cups and hand one over to each of them. They look at each other, skeptical about drinking it, but Catherine glares at them and they quickly drink it. Not long after they fell asleep.

.

“Let me erase their memories of today. Its too much trouble having them know. Especially this loud mouth of a boy. ”

“Good thinking mum.. ”

After Ariadna erased their memories… They talk about Isabel while the boys still slept.

“Catty, its going to be all right. She is with Jasper. ”

“But mum, they would both be in danger. I can’t help but worry” cried Catherine.

“Would seeing them for yourself be better? ” her dad said holding his car keys.

“Ohh daddy, I love you so much. Yes it would.”

“Don’t forget it’s our duty to protect her. ” her mother chipped in.

“What do we do with them?” asked Catherine.

“Drop them off near your school. ”

“Okay dad, let’s do this. ”

“You’re so eager to see her.. ” her mother laughs at her daughter’s behaviour.

In Jasper’s home.

“What? You left her at home?”

“Huh what was I supposed to do, her parents would be worried sick.” replied Jasper.

“You dummy”.

“Catherine that’s enough. How do you expect him to know. He did what he thought was right”.

“What’s going on Ari? ” asked Ariana.

“They came for her, when she was attacked and she awoken her powers, He found out. ”

“How can, the Queen’s portal cannot be tracked”.

“Gregory you forget who Claudius is. He was the strongest mage after our queen. He can sense it. I don’t know how but I know he can and he did.”

“So you are saying they have.. ” despair was written all over Jasper’s face.

“Jasper, calm down. Did you follow her into the house? Did you notice anything unusual? ”

“No, no, no. I should have but I didn’t. I didn’t think… Ohh no, Isabel. I’ve failed her. ”

“You have failed no one son. We are wasting time staying here. We’ve got to hurry to her place.” replied Gregory with a hand on Jasper’s shoulder.

They hurriedly entered their cars and zoomed off into the distance, straight for Isabel’s home.
