Part Title 10
The heroic villainess
This chapter's song is: dynamite by bts!
Sylvia's POV:
The girl looked up at me, Where's Twilight? I walk to the mystery door and when I open it, I'm met with a little girl with dull grey hair and injuries. She was clutching a teddy that looks exactly like my old stuffed bunny Mr dusty from my last life...
It was weird, all the injuries that Twilight had were the same as this girl.
"Hi, I'm Sylvia, what's your name?" I go down on my knees to match her height. I didn't wanna intimidate her or anything.
"Twilight," the little girl spoke. Wait... THIS CUTE LITTLE GIRL IS THE MEAN UGLY BEAST FROM YESTERDAY???
"So, you had this cute form all along but you chose to try and tear me apart with your other form," There's no way I could stay mad at a cute little girl, especially with those injuries. There was one thing off though...
"What happened to your eyes? They were a different colour before?" I ask.
"... Can change... Appearance... When I want..." She was speaking very hesitantly. To prove she was telling the truth, she changed her cerulean eyes to pink. So cool! I wish I had that skill.
"So, is this like your room? In my mind?" She nods.
"Well, no wonder it looks a lot like my old room," that was an understatement. It was almost identical to my old room, the only difference was that the tv was no longer there. Other than that, the: manga, desk, bed, wallpaper and carpet were just like my old room. It was so nostalgic.
My mind trailed off until I was brought back by twilight pulling my clothes.
"So... Are you going to help me do magic?" I ask, remembering that Luna told me that twilight was just my magic in a material form. Twilight nodded and soon, the room melted away into a snow mountain. What the hell! Why is it so cold when I'm in my mind???
Twilight was unfazed by the cold but I was shivering, she crossed her legs and motioned for me to do the same. She then said for me to relax. Like hell, I can relax! It felt like it was less than -100 degrees in here. Still, I tried to follow what she was saying. It seems she's trying to make me interact with my ice soul.
"Relax, let it comfort you, the cold never bothers you anyway," she tutored. My teeth were still chattering but I imagined the ice like a blanket rather than... Well... Hypothermia. I was surprised to see it worked. It felt like I had just eaten ice cream on a hot day, it was refreshing and cool.
I open my eyes and the snowy mountains changed into a fiery pit. "What the hell! Am I in hell???" I'm sweating buckets and my nightgown is drowning in my sweat. So this was my other element... Fire. Ok, all I need to do is bond with it.
I close my eyes and try to imagine the fire and a warm heater in the winter. It was always freezing in winter and the best thing in my last life was sitting in front of the heater, drinking a nice big mug of hot chocolate with whipped cream.
Bonding with fire and ice is so much easier than bonding with darkness. It was like 1+1; bonding was a piece of cake. When I opened my eyes for the second time, I was back in my room.
"Miss, are you awake?" I see Lillian putting away some dresses in my closet. I nod at her and she sends for one of the maids to make me some dinner. They bring in a minestrone soup and bread.
"The duchess told us to provide you with something healthy and light. This shall be your diet for the next few days until you're better."
"What!? But I'm really okay! I don't need to be on this healthy diet thing!" I refute. Not having delicious food for the next few days was torture, how do they expect me to live on soup and bread?!
"You have been dizzy for the past few days. You are certainly not okay, the duke and duchess have approved of this diet and it's either this or plain salads," Lillian replied. My heart broke in two. All that food... Me not eating it... I'd rather be dead.
It's been three days since I've met Mason's father and the incident blew up so bad that they thought it was an assassination attempt of the crown prince's fiancee. Since then, ace has been constantly sending letters on the daily to which I have to reluctantly send letters back.
I'm currently in the library, reading more about my magic. Is says that you can manipulate your element as far as your imagination and mana. This means that if i have enough mana for it, I can create whatever I want so long as it's linked to my elements. This is also why it's so useful to have every element but sadly, I don't.
So... What about a fire dragon? I do have an affinity for fire so I guess I can pull it off. It should be cute and small. I don't want anyone to know that I can practise magic at a young age. I've already made that mistake when I showed them I could write letters.
OK... Imagine... Its gotta be at least 15 cm so a baby dragon? My eyes squint at the light and whne I open them, I see a cute baby dragon made of flames. It makes a mini roar and breathes a little flame.
"cool! I wonder what else I can do!" I exclaim as I reach for another book.. And soon, five years passed...
This is a short chapter but then again, the last chapter was super long so... Yeah. Each chapter is less than 2000 words anyways.
