Chapter 1.
Anaya, Nathaniel and Gideon arrive in the Wish Realm. The three find themselves in a forest with no sign of Charlotte or her followers. The three find themselves discussing their plan to take down Charlotte and her followers and bring them to justice.
"Why can't we just kill her,"? Gideon asks.
"It's against our code as Children of Darkness, Gideon and we don't know if killing her would wake up Lucy," Nathaniel explains.
"Then what do you suggest Nate we track her and ask her nicely to wake everyone up," Gideon says.
"No, Gideon but acting on emotions alone will only bring failure and disappointment," Anaya tells Gideon.
"Fine so what's the plan,"? Gideon asked.
"First we need to blend in," Nathaniel spoke as he makes a gesture causing the three to be devoured into grey smoke the smoke quickly fades and Nathaniel is now wearing black leather trousers and a white shirt, while Anaya is wearing a white dress that has blackthorns sewed into the dress. Then we have Gideon wearing blue trousers, a light blue shirt with blue boots and a long blue cloak.
"First we need to camp for the night it's getting darker," Anaya tells Nathaniel and Gideon.
"Where are we setting up camp here,"? Gideon asks.
"Yes, but we'll conjure some tents and place a cloaking spell on our campsite no one will be able to spot us," Anaya says.
After they placed a cloaking spell on the area they wished to use as their campsite. Anaya, Nathaniel and Gideon conjured a tent each to spend the night in. Gideon didn't sleep well at all he kept waking up on and off during the night. Gideon wakes up again in the very early hours of the morning when the sun hasn't even begun to rise. Gideon unable to get back to asleep and bored decides he should try and find a water well since they are bound to need water later for hydration even clothes. Gideon leaves his tent still wearing the clothes Nathaniel conjured for him. Gideon decides not to wander too far away from camp in case he bumps into some unfriendly company! Gideon walks a few miles away from the camp and finds a water well just five minutes ahead of him but is in clear view. Right next to the water well is a tall figure wearing a grey hood. Gideon quickly hides behind a tree not wanting to expose himself to a stranger who could be very dangerous.
"Come on I only need a little bit of water," A young girls voice can be heard as she pulls on the rope to make the bucket rise from the bottom of the well. The girl then pulls out a small vial dips the vial into the bucket. The vial is soon filled with water from the bucket. After filling the vial with water the girl pushes a quark into the vial so the water wouldn't escape.
"Drizella, stay where you are," A guard orders as he runs down to the well with another guard. Drizella turns to face the guards holding the vial in her left arm.
"H..how did you find me,"? Drizella age 16, who has dark brown eyes and dark brown hair with pale skin asked.
"We have our methods, hand over the vial Drizella, you know as well as I that the water from this well is forbidden," The other guard tells Drizella.
"No, I can't this might be the only way to save," Drizella said before her sentence is cut short by one of the guards snatching the vial throwing it onto the ground smashing the vial! The guards quickly grab one side of Drizella each and drag her away from the water well. Gideon wanted so much to help the girl and as he hid behind a tree he tried to conjure a fireball only to find he could barely conjure a spark since conjuring the tent early used most of his magic up. Gideon felt compelled to help the girl. However, he no hero especially without his magic and he has to save his family, not some stranger. When Gideon believes the girl and the guards are far away and he won't be noticed. Gideon quickly runs over to the water well and grabs the bucket that is filled with water and walks back to the camp as fast as he can.
Around 8 am Anaya and Nathaniel finally wake up and leave their tents. The two older and resurrected Children of Darkness walk over to Gideon. The bucket of water Gideon acquired from the water well that appears to be forbidden to use by some guards is in front of Gideon.
"Water I haven't felt the need for hydration or food in decades," Nathaniel says as he conjured a small metal cup to use to collect some of the water of the bucket in.
"I thought I should get us some water earlier when I couldn't sleep," Gideon tells the two older Children of Darkness. As Nathaniel lifts his cup to his mouth Nathaniel senses something odd with the water and quickly throws his mug away from him and the other two.
"This water we can't drink it" Nathaniel spoke confusing Gideon and Anaya.
"Why,"? Anaya questions Nathaniel.
"The water isn't regular water sister it's one I and many other healers before us have used to heal the inflicted its a powerful tool of magic however if someone drinks it who isn't inflicted with illness will become curse with an illness that no one but a power above us all could cure," Nathaniel explains.
"Lucky I haven't drunk any," Gideon replied.
"You shouldn't have gone alone to get this," Anaya scolds Gideon.
"I was bored and we need water and food," Gideon said.
"We know that but now we need to search for a well that holds no magic properties we can still keep this water in case any of us getting badly hurt," Nathaniel spoke before making a swift gesture towards the bucket. The water in the bucket is transported into a newly conjured pouch meant to contain water.
