Chapter 52: Chapter 52

"Okay now handle this one," Peter said and manipulated a fire monster two times bigger than me. The sun was shining with all its treasures. The bright blue sky looked brighter with full of hope, with no signs of any pink clouds.
"How I'm supposed to deal with this thing?" I gasped while he just shrugged. I looked at his burning figure which almost looked like a lava monster.
We were doing this for almost 2 days. I did not leave for the human world nor I cared right now. Because I had to overwhelm my weak point which was being afraid. We had done all kinds of combat with their skills and now they were increasing it with their monster creating manipulation.
Well, I had a positive point that I could manipulate all elements with the help of my imagination. Unless they only had their elements but the bad thing was there were doing everything together like a team.
"Guys, be easy!" Walter said. He stood near a tree, leaning over it. He was the only person who had not attacked yet.
"Good idea!" Mona looked at him with a mischievous grin. She used Agrokinesis and manipulated that tree into a living walking tree monster, with whom Walter was leaned. One of its branches picked Walter into the air in the opposite direction to the ground.
"Mona!!! What the hell?" Walter yelled.
"Okay. You need to save him at the same time destroy both of them." Mona said, pointing at both Tree and Fire monsters.
"No problem!" I smiled. If they asked me to do something like that two days ago, then for sure I got panicked but this new version of me very fully knew the right use of her powers.
Walter was dangling in the air and screaming at Mona while that fire monster attacked me and I jumped a few steps backward. I focused and throw water to check if it affects him but as I accepted, nothing happened more than some smoke. I looked at him with full focus and froze him in a stone statue. My nightmare did a good job by giving me the idea of converting things into a statue of stone.
When I was busy in appreciation of my nightmare something hard hit me from the back and I fell hard on the ground. I winced but turned around and hurriedly shifted in a sitting position. I looked at that giant tree.
"Marie!!! Hurry up or else I'll spit everything out I had eaten." Walter cried. I chuckled.
That tree again attacked by trying to smack me in his big root-foot. I moved aside. What should I do with him? What could be a weak point of a tree? His roots? I looked at his bigfoot which was a beautiful partition of roots in two feet.
I took a deep breath and cut his roots with a sharp speed of lightning and there he fell on the ground along with Walter.
Without giving any time to look if Walter was alright or not, Snow and Lilly attacked me with their combination of water with lightning. The lightning which we heard, when there was a rainstorm. But to their surprise, I handle it with my ability to control everything and threw that back on him. They all smiled and there Walter appeared from inside that fallen tree.
"Are you okay?" I asked.
"I don't think so," Walter said, caressing his head.
"One last but not least," Bell said and appeared with a white tiger.
"It's so cute, " I said but later regret when that cute one changed into something unspeakable but a tiger. Bell's eyes were shining at the same time and I knew she was controlling him because her power was Thiriokinesis.
I didn't want to hurt an animal which was so cute a moment ago so I thought of something else. We were standing at some distance, he jumped towards me and I place my hand on his forehead to disconnect Bell's connection. It took 15 seconds to do so because Bell had great skill in controlling animals. But at last, I did it. He came back to a normal cute look and I caressed his head but Bell jerked hard when I broke the connection.
I ran towards her, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah. That was strong." She said with her eyes still closed. Walter helped her in sitting on the bench near us. He even gave her water to drink and asking if she needs anything else. I looked at both of them. The way they were looking at each other, my eyes moved to Mona and she noticed the same thing and winked at me. I smiled.
"I don't believe this..." Mike said.
"What?" I asked suddenly getting scared because of the way he said that.
He came towards me and held my hand in his big one. Then he spoke dramatically, "My child, you are ready for the throne, for the crown ceremony to become the Queen." He said with full over-acting and wiped invisible tears. We burst into laughter.
"You are an over actor," I said.
"But the point is right. I think we should do the ceremony as soon as possible. Now you are fully prepared." Peter said.
I and Walter passed a look at each other, probably masked savior words were echoing in our minds. We had not found her weakness yet and after the ceremony, she will attack us without wasting any time.
"I think we should find her weakness first," I said.
"Yeah, she is right. We should wait a little more." Walter said and stood up from the bench.
"Then it's up to you princess," Lilly said and Mona added, "Do it as soon as you can." I nodded at them.
"Her weakness is something supposed to be precious to her or maybe something important," I asked.
"Nothing is important for her more than her desire to rule the crystal world," Bell said. I like the way she spoke and that bluebird which always sat on her shoulder.
"Any sibling?" I asked.
"Nope. Nothing." Peter said and added, "Princess, you have to listen to the voice of your soul to find the answer."
I sighed.

"Where you have been for two damn days without your phone?" Daddy asked not angrily but in a straight voice that echoed in the silent study room.
We came back to the human world and tiptoed towards my room when Daddy spotted us.
"Walter's mom was ill so, we went to see her." I lied.
Although, It was a really bad one. Daddy looked at Walter and he just nodded.
"Ohh! How's she now?" He asked Walter with a soft voice and I barely controlled my laugh.
"Good...... Pretty good." He said almost immediately.
"Still, you should have told me at least." He again looked at me and I nodded.
"Anyways, eat something and then rest. Tomorrow is going to be a busy day." He said and I looked at the clock. It showed 7:25 pm.
"Why?" I asked.
"Darren was looking for you in the past days, he even called you but your phone was not reachable. He has completed all the work of that hospital project and tomorrow by 12 is the inauguration." He explained.
"That much fast. What's the date tomorrow?" I asked.
"Second of December. Now, go and have some rest. And.....don't disappear anywhere without telling me." He said and we moved out of that room.
Was December started so early?
"My mother.....seriously!" He asked and I showed him a wide mischievous grin.
"Then......your girlfriend is better? What say?" I said teasingly.
"My girlfriend? Who?" He looked pale and shocked. I laughed.
"Don't pretend," I said with a wink.
"Okay, fear deal!" He said showing me his hand for a shake. "I'll shut my mouth about Veward and....."
"I'll shut my mouth about Bell. Done deal!" I said and shook his hand with a wide mischievous smile.
Then I trudged towards my room to took a shower and then a long peaceful sleep. Walter also went to his room which was next to my room. I took a long warm shower which for a moment erase all the problems away. I came out and wore a black oversized hoodie with a white pajama.
I was about to turn off the lights and jumped on the bed when someone knocked on the door. I groaned totally annoyed and opened the door. It was none other than Mr. Jealous king of Europe.
"Let's go!" He said then gripped my wrist and pulled me outside the room.
"Where?" I stopped with a jerk and asked.
Walter also came outside and looked at him then asked, "Where are you going, Ma'am?"
"Don't worry. I'll never hurt her." Veward said and again started to drag me with him downstairs. "You can come if you want." He added. While I just silently followed.
We came outside and I shivered because of the cold weather of December. We moved towards Veward white Lamborghini which he very rarely used. He opened the door for me and I looked at him to assess what he was about to do?
Walter also came outside with a black warm coat. He handed me that coat and I immediately wore it and giving Veward one last look I hopped inside the car. Walter sat in the backseat.
Veward revived the engine and we drove towards God know where! After almost 10 minutes' drive, he stopped the car. I looked at the outer view of the window. It showed a forest. But it didn't give me a horrible vibe because I was with Veward whom I trust with all my heart.
He hopped out followed the move by me and Walter. He requested Walter, "Please...give us some privacy. I assure you of her security."
And my heart started to beat faster.
'What is he up to?'
