It was a warm day, a honest trip to the Scalding Sand with the Scarabia trio and prefects of Ramshackle and a few students of Swift n Drift Academy. A large group of teens with a vibrant enjoyment, with some indulging in enjoying the scenery, others learning the history and culture, and some loving the environment. The crew were cheerful, some were calm, and some were enjoying the experience. However, one of the group members was tense. Their actions were rigid and their attitude was limited. Though, the girl, Aqila, was embracing her hometown. It was while she was back home. With her crew mates right beside her to her left and right, she was chatting with the prefects of Ramshackle. Giving them tips on fighting, and insights of the world around them. She was very calm, and for one. She cracked a genuine smile, it was rare of her to do so. So she was surprising the crew, especially her own best friends. Imira and Abbe were in awe of her smile, but they never complained about it. Imira was laughing, “it’s been a while to see the original smile.” She laughed, Abbe was smiling and hugged Aqila. “It’s good to see it again!” She cheered. The prefects were surprised, “woah, that’s definitely a million dollar smile.” Commented Minako. As Isabelle nodded her head in agreement.
Aqila let out a laugh, “oh come on. I mean, it’s a trip home. You guys always fuss about me going cold. I thought of brightening the mood a bit.” She replied, as Imira sighed, “we always worry about you, yknow?” The other girl sighed, “I’m fine. Just need a change for a while. Maybe….. for the bett…..er?” She said, as she froze in place, as the crew looked up ahead to why the girl had froze in place. Was two Crown Jewels princess of the city the three girls lived. Much different from Silk City, but one was a burning familiarity to Aqila. It was her ex, the boy who had wronged her in a subtle way to the large extent. Aqila turned around, gathering the crowd, “let’s turn back, I know a good shop with the best sandwiches please.” The girl pleaded, but it was all too late. The boys recognized her, and slowly approached. Or, most likely one of them did. It was her ex, “Aqila? Is that you?” The boy replied. Aqila sighed, as she was facing away. She remained silent. She was uncomfortable, it didn’t go well for the Prince. Who was slowly sounding tense. “Not talking to me are you?” He said. Aqila continued to be quiet, in her eyes showed a sign of weakness. And the girls started to gather, “hey. She didn’t look too comfortable, man. Back off!” Shouted Estella. “Yeah, get along and leave already.” Said Freya, shielding Aqila. As the Prince, Jasminko, sighed. “This doesn’t concern you, ladies. This is a conversation between me and her.” He said, his own voice sounded cold and empty. The girls were getting agitated, they could feel Jasminko’s intentions were not very pleasant. “Please… I don’t intend to hurt her.” He said.
What he had just said, made Aqila snap inside. “Hurt me….? Hurt me….” She said, as the crew slowly backed away, some felt cold. Like the air became a blizzard to them. The other half felt hot, like the sun had grown more intense in heat. Aqila was facing the ground, her hands clenched into fists, there were sparks spiraling on the right side of Aqila's head. Her hair grew two colors that started at the end of her hair. “You will never hurt me….. AGAIN!!!” raising her head high as she shouts.
Her eyes burn with red, her pupils glew a bright yellow. Her sclera was pitch black as black veins form on her face. Her hair burst into Fire and Water. A blob of black ink spirals around her body, consuming her whole and forming a beautiful dress that’s red and blue, but the city has been hit with a burning pain and freezing cold. As the black ink slowly started to gain a form, two separate monsters started to take the shape of a prince and the street rat. They let out a monstrous howl of rage and an aching wail of agony. A horrid cry from the girl, as colored metal cuffs her wrists. The whole city was engulfed into a dome of her intense power. Everyone couldn’t make a move, as Minako rushed at the girl. Raising her weapon, however, Aqila sensed it and her entire hair became full of fire and vanished before the girl made her move. Minako was stunned, but was thrown across the road as she felt a wave toss her body like a ragdoll. The others had to tag together to fight her, as Aqila’s sister could watch a reckless battle of Fire and Water/Ice. Everyone was dodging attacks and swipes, as the prince scurried away, as his other twin, Jasir, remained to watch the catastrophe that was made. Mona couldn’t help but breathe, grabbing her own and ran to her sister to help the girls. Sahil used her magic to turn any attack and debris into jewels, showering the ground with sparkling gems. Mona dodged every rushing destruction thrown, leaping from levitated boulders of the ground. Isabelle, holding Grim, faced him to the girl. As Grim threw a powerful burst of fire. Aqila’s hair became full of water as her entire body became liquid and swiftly dodged the attack. Freezing the ground as everyone slipped, as Aqila hair reverted back to flames. Staring at the fleeing prince, her body burst into flames and appeared in front of Jasminko. Her eyes deepened with pain, as Jasminko’s eyes filled with regret. “You claim you won’t hurt me, but that was such a disguise. You had already hurt me before…. I want to see how bad I can return the pain….” But Aqila felt her body lifted and thrown away. She spun to catch herself on her two feet, as she glared at the ones who threw her. It was Freya and Mona. They held their wands aimed at the girl, throwing another charge.
It was a fearsome battle, scorch burns everywhere, snow and freeze burns remains on the skin. But everyone felt tired, aware they cannot push their limits, but Mina still stood her ground. Watching her sister slowly deteriorate from pain, she ran towards her, dodging fire balls and icicles thrown to her, grounding the ground to shield her as she ran through broken ground plates. As she reached her sister, she threw herself into the girl embrace, hugging her as her arms have a mix of burns and freeze. “Let it go sister! You can’t stoop to his level! If you hurt him, you’re going to be like him!!!” She cried, Aqila's eyes softened. She let out tears as her face remained still. Her sister cried, holding her as she felt the air grew heavy. Choking her as she coughs, Aqila held her sister close. Embracing her as the air became lighter. Minako who was fighting an enraged street rat phantom, watched the creature vanished and plummet into the ground. Screaming in pain and outrage. As Estella, Isabelle, Tsukii, Haru, and Sahil were fighting the phantom of a prince saw it slowly melt away. As Aqila’s face grew lighter and lighter. As her hair slowly grew back to normal. But she fainted, dropping herself into her sister embrace as Mona regain the will to breathe the fresh clear again. Jasminko, who has saw this, stood up before being knocked down by a fist from Freya. “Stay away from her…. Got it?” The prince glared at her, as everyone began to leave the mess of destruction.
Back at the hotel Kalim offered everyone to stay, the girls set Aqila alone to a room with her best friends. Abbe promised to watch Aqila to see if she regains consciousness as Imira and Mona went to talk to the girls, the others fell asleep. But the stronger willed ones remain awaken. Imira ended up cracking, revealing the story of Aqila’s outburst. Answering questions, saying she is cursed with the eyes of evil. Only to see people sins and inner demons, all done by the prince who gave her the taste of the royal life only for her to run away from it all. Freya felt disgusted as it was all revealed, same for Minako, Sahil, and Tsukii. But they grew tense to a familiar face who found them. Just as the four about to throw hands, Imira held them back with her wings. “Relax…. It’s his brother, he’s harmless….” She replied. “I’m very sorry…. My brother should’ve known better…” he said, holding a book in his hands. He passed it to the group, “take this…. You might need it” he replied. “The hell is this?” Asked Minako. “It’s a spell book. One that has the eye of evil curse…. Look, I know I’m asking too much….. but, can you girls save her?… the curse, it’s killing her inside and…. I don’t want to be related to someone who made her wasted her life for. Please…. I promise to pay you all handsomely, name it and it’s yours. Jewels, rare items, name it. I just…..” he held his tongue. “I want her to live the life she wants….” He said. “I saw something you girls didn’t notice…. The curse, it’s furthering the process….” Everyone’s eyes widen to this. “When she overblotted, the cursed grew rapidly and infected her more, I know very well she is dying. The process is slowing down…. I tried my luck to find a reversal spell…. I had no chance…. But I can tell you are all the most powerful…. So please…. Help me return her life back…. The least I can do to help my brother….” He explained.
The task wasn’t going to be easy. Let alone a walk in the park. But granted, they have a prince begging for her safety. He was different from his heartless brother. He was honest and true. It was a new decision, plus, they were going to be paid b]very handsomely from the boy too. Well. Let’s see how good they can break the curse, before it swallowed Aqila whole to death.
