Chapter 3 - Chapter 3:A New Journey

"Who are you"

Alice at the corner asked ,she was injured and was barely able to move,her eyes were full of question.

I answered with a confuse look "who are you? what do you mean? What happened here ?"

shocked at her question i asked ,suddenly my body collapse ,i can no longer move ,all i can fill was my fingers,memory began to blur as well as vision.

alice rush toward me

"what happened to me "i ask but before she aswered i pass away again.

When i woke up i was in bed ,the room was made out of wood but does not look like man-made but of supernatural means.

I woke up to see that i was full of bandage and my right arm ,which alice made for me was crack and barely able to move.

i thought to myself what happened after i black out ,who was the person who talk to me at that time ,but my head hurts just thinking about it so i gave up and lay down again and stare at the wall,the room i was in reminded me of how my mom used to treat me when i was sick ,reminded of my family ,i wonder-

"i wonder what my families are doing right now,they must have panic at my dissappearance "the image of my sister crying and my mother refusing my death to the police came up and a sudden sadness flows through my mind-

"will i be able to see them again?"

while i was deep in my thought the door to the room opened and alice walk in with a sad pityfull face,but changes when she saw me awake ,she heads toward me with a bright smile as if she forget what happended in the cave but i felt that i should not bring that up.

She sits next to me and say-

"are you ok ,i was so worried about you ,i though you wouldn't wake up again"

She said, tearing up,i though to myself ,this girl grows attached easily ,but again i guess its because i save her life.I smiled and jokingly replied-

"well then my queen what about the wish you promise?"

Suddenly alice sadden as if she has done something wrong,i quickly replied to cheer her up-

"i didnt mean it ,you dont have to fullfill any of my wish ,you taking care of me is enough"

i said quickly.

" no thats not it ,i would fullfill your wish with no problem if i was at a normal state "

she said with a sad look on her face.

I look at her with a confuse face

alice continued her sentence "you see ,i told you before that i am not able to harm any natural being ,its a taboo"

I look at her and realised her eyes was no longer yellow and thought to myself that could only mean one thing

"Dont tell me your pow-"

"yes,because of this i am no longer deemed

worthy to be the queen of the ancient forest"

i realised that it was my fault ,she tried to defend me so she fought with the beast ,i answered with a sorry voice-

"im sorry its my fault"

Alice look up with a timid expression

"Dont feel bad it was my decision "

She sit tight and starts thinking and suddenly smile as if she got an idea

"about that wish what if i join you on your journey?"

I stared at her face in shock ,feeling mix with confusing and happiness

"but your fore-"

She stops me-

"its no longer mine,the moment i strike that beast i was strip of my ability and status,but i still got my large mana pool "

she said smirking

I was confuse why she was so calm and happy about losing her status as a queen,she seem to notice what i was thinking and said-

"i know what your thinking,being a queen is so boring,no sentiant being are here,its full of beast who dont even recognise me,the only people who visit this place are fallen send by the rulers or adventurers.

adventurer....i noted in my head.

"where are we?is this your house?"

She wears a cheerfull face and replied-

"its a part of my magic natural law which allow me to create everything i want using natural material ,like the one from the cave"

"so you still have certain ability?"

"yes ,but its not from being the queen its a natural ability own by a fairy"

i suddenly remember our first encounter

"then is the human form your currently using a part of your ability?"

"yep ,handy right"

She smirk as if she is asking to be praise by her parents.

she then look towards me in excitment-

"how about we travel across the continent ,i wanted to travel for a long time and your new here too,its a perfect opportunity"

I though it was a good idea until i remember about the curse .

"but the 7kings"

She hurriedly answer to comfort me

"its a curse by the rulers so its more like your fated to meet them,its inevitable so we might as well do it while we can"

her eyes spark as if she remember something important-

"oh also you cant move your arms without me,due to the fact that you dont have any magic,i need to charge your hands everytime "

i nod my hands in agreement

"dont be so sad hmmm oh right sleep here and rest for the night i have a surprise for you tomorrow"

She smiles and left the room.

Not knowing what to do about my curse i look out the window near the bed and rethink my life,when i remember that im stuck in this world because of that rulers or whatever i swear to myself once again ill take revenge....

"but"

"What can i do in this state "

I heard sudden sound ,it was non other than .....my belly

i thought to myself-

"that darn girl forgot to bring me food"

a bright sunray shines through the window and to my face and woke me up,alice was sleeping at the floor near my right arm ,i look in shock ,my right arm has been remade ,it was purple in colour and the yellow vain were still present ,shocked and excited i might have made a bit of a noice.

"mmm-oh hirata your awake "

she gets up , stretches and look at me who was amaze at my arm.

"do you like it?"She smiles happily

i nod my head in excitement and replied-

"it feels like i have never lost my arm in the first place,it moves so well...so well that it might be faster than normal"

she wears a big smile and said-

"Its made out of a magic crystal for the ancient forest enchance with my magic ,it took me 6 hours so you better thank me"

i smile at her happily and excitely

"thanks alice "

she wear a big smile and ask me in excitement

"what are you waiting for? we got a journey to do"

she said happily and hold me to get up,i replied to her voice with a calm and excuted voice-

"fine lets do this ,i dont care how tough the journey is ill face it head on and teach those rulers a lesson"

saying that i sit up from by bed and immediately fell to the ground

"eh"

"eh"

she rush towards me -

"how ?i have healed you completely ,you should be at full condition right now"

she said with a fustrated voice and start to chant a healing spell-

"blessing of th-"

she was interruped by a sound coming from me-

-grrrrrrr(stomach due to hunger)

i laugh out of emberessment

alice "ill make breakfast first"she giggle and left the room.
