Chapter Twenty Eight
I froze and couldn’t believe this. I glanced over to the clock and saw it was four in the afternoon which mean I had eight hours to break this curse. I looked right into her eyes and saw all the pain and fear that was taking over, and then I felt my stomach drop at the sight in front of me. Her white dress started to turn into black lace at the bottom and continue up the dress. She looked around before grabbing the bottom of her dress and running away from the place. Helia and I looked at each other before running to the stable to grab our horses and chase after her. We were in the forest and stopped at the cabin where we both first found her again. The door was wide open with glass shattered everywhere. The two of us went into the back room where we found a note that read I’m sorry but the two of you need to stopping looking before either of you get hurt. Both of you went on for four years without me and you will have to go on without me for the rest. I love you both and I’m glad I got to have you both in my life, but I want both of you to live your lives so you must forget about me. I ran away from the letter but in reality I ran away to protect the ones I love. However when I saw both of you, I felt weak and wanted to come back, but as we all saw that came with a price. I thought when I died the worst would be over, yet now I have something worse I am still a part of legend which I never wanted to be and worst of all I am my own sister’s enemy. I will do everything in my power to protect you from the darkness in the woods, but if fear takes control just run as far as you can and then you’ll be safe. I’m sorry that I have to say goodbye but just know I love you both, Flora. I cried, but I wasn’t going to stop trying to find her and break the curse. I looked around and saw a book that read History of Linphea I grabbed it and sat on the edge of the bed. I quickly flipped to the page that was book marked by a pink ribbon. The page was blank except for an image of a shadow. Then all of the sudden words appear on the page about the curse. I read all the pages before feeling slightly relieved. It had the cure to finally end the spell once and for all, so with the book in hand we sent out to go find my sister in these woods.
Chapter Twenty Nine
We rode on through the woods and the lake until we found that fork in the road. We looked at it and saw all of the nature had become overgrown and that meant one thing, so we continued on. Soon enough we found a palace shimmering in the moonlight that glowed in an onyx color with vines, thorns and flowers winding all around. We tied our horses to the post and entered the glimmering black palace. Inside wilted flower petals made a trail to the staircase. As we climbed them we were careful not to touch the railing now covered in thorn covered vines, and soon we found a door. Helia went first and opened it and I was in awe of the size of the throne room in this place. I looked down at the rose petals that were starting to wilt that led to the throne. I froze at the sight. Her hair was down in lose curls, a thorn tiara, and her outfit was a sweetheart neckline dress that was skin tight and came to mid-thigh with black lace over it going to the floor with a train while her makeup was dark brown with deep red lipstick. She looked over to us before motioning we could come forward. She said why did you two come out here? I looked at the tears forming in her eyes before saying to end the darkness once and for all because we found a cure. She looked shocked as she said what is it and where did you find it? I grabbed the book and flipped it to the bookmark page as I said this page it might have be blank to you but words appear for me and the cure was listed which is true love’s kiss and even though it says there is a price we have to try. Flora looked up and said I would love to try but I don’t want to pay a price just to return to normal, but Helia continued to walk closer to her and brushed the hair out of her face as he pulled her close as he kissed her. As they kissed her dress turned back to white and the light from the sunset shined through the windows as the gloominess of the palace vanished. She smiled as the two pulled away, but that all changed in a matter of seconds as he collapsed onto the ground. She started crying as she held him and said Helia please don’t leave me. You can leave me. Just wake up please you can’t go and leave me alone. She bawled into his chest once she realized that his heart beat was gone. I said let me try to heal him. She looked up at me and nodded even though I could tell she was doing the best to control the pain that was slowly turning into anger inside of her. I sat down on the floor and placed my hand on top of her hand which were lying on his chest and said a spell as my magic started to glow. Once the spell was complete, I watched patiently and stood up as my sister stayed by his side. Nothing happened and I felt depressed. She looked up at me and finally let the anger go as she bitterly said Krystal, get out of here now. If you would have stopped believing you could have saved me this wouldn’t have happened. I have nothing now and it’s all your fault. Both of us were crying as I said but your my sister and you still have a family back at the palace and we can just start over. She looked back at me and with tears running down her face she spoke just leave you have already caused enough damage and I never want to see you again. I ran out of there and got back on my horse and rode as fast as I could to the palace. I was hurt because I really thought I would have my sister back, but I actually ended up pushing her further away and losing her.
