In the early hours of the morning, I was trying to wake up with the sunlight streaming onto my face, idly passing the time in bed. Suddenly, I heard shouting from downstairs. Alvin was, as usual, joking around and getting on Alpha's nerves. Luna called me and led me to the garden.
L: V, I thought we were having an open and honest conversation, my friend?
V: Is there a problem, Luna?
L: Look, V, I understand that he can be very charming, and his friendliness might appeal to you, and you may even have a crush on him. But please, don't make the mistake of trusting him.
V: Where is this coming from now? panicking
L: V, we all witness your conversations with him. Please, this is for your own good.
V: Alright, I'll be more careful.
L: I'm glad to hear that. Let's go back inside; otherwise, they might devour each other.
We returned inside, and everyone had sat down at the breakfast table and started eating. I took the seat at the head of the table and looked at the fox-shaped pancake on my plate. It was incredibly cute, and I had never received such a gesture from anyone before. Luna had me so confused that I had lost my appetite; I was absentmindedly playing with my plate. Merlin, who noticed this, spoke up:
M: Hey, don't delve too deep; you might drown grins.
V: W-what? Um, nothing, I'm fine, just not very hungry.
Al: Is something bothering you, V?
Af: Did someone do something to you? glaring at Merlin
V: Just calm down; it's nothing. I'm just feeling a bit overwhelmed, and I can't really enjoy the food right now.
M: Well, hey, you need to pull yourself together. Our training day will be much easier if you can gather yourself and clear your mind.
L: He's right, V, you need to regain your strength.
V: Enough, please, don't push me so hard! (I slammed my hand on the table and left the room).
Meanwhile, at the table:
L: Did we all see that?
Al: The blue and diamond-like glowing, as well as the fiery eyes. Yes, we all saw it.
Af: You, wizard boy, what did you do to her?
M: Don't overstep, Alpha. I simply wished him goodnight last night, and he didn't talk to me in the morning. It's not my fault.
L: Don't press him, Alpha. I spoke with him a bit this morning. I think we expected him to accept everything too quickly; it was foolish.
Al: I agree, we wanted him to adapt and accept everything suddenly; it was naive.
M: That's selfish, my friend. He's not accustomed to this world like we are. Even hearing a rabbit hopping in the woods is a supernatural event for her.
Af: Everything overwhelmed her.
L: I'll go check on her.
M: You stay; I'll handle it.
Af: H-hey- Alvin grabs his arm.
Al: Trust me, and let me handle this, my friend.
Merlin went to Violet, and I'll continue from there.
M: Hey, are you okay?
V: I'm not. I didn't ask for all of this.
M: None of us did, but we're here for you.
V: I want to trust Alpha, Merlin.
M: Why don't you trust me?
V: Because everyone who sees me getting close to you gets mad at me, telling me to stay away from you.
M: You have a point there, but it should be the assurance I give you that matters, not what they say.
V: I think the same way, but they don't want me to get close to you because of something that happened between you guys.
M: I promise you, I won't make a mistake that would break your trust. As for them, Alpha thinks I had something with his sister. I'll explain it to you when the time is right. Just trust me.
V: I don't know, Merlin. Is this a good idea? I'm not sure.
M: When you're ready, you can hold my hands.
V: Okay, that sounds good. What are you going to teach me today?
M: You made a good point. Let's see if you have telekinesis ability. We'll start by testing that.
V: Awesome! I'm ready. excited
M: Follow me.
Merlin talking to me and providing support had eased my mind. There was something comforting about him, and I might reconsider the issue of trusting him.
Luna and Alpha didn't want it, but this was my choice. I needed to hear what happened between Harley and all three of them. If he lied, I could tell from their stories. I followed him, and we arrived at a vast green area with a wooden door placed in the middle of the ground. When we approached the door, we heard a digital voice.
Digital Voice: Say password.
M: Would you like to try, Violet?
V: But I have no idea.
M: It's not about ideas; it's something instinctual, something within you.
V: If you give me a hint, I might solve it. giving a cute look
M: What's your favorite flower?
V: Of course, fresh orchids, but why should it be that?
M: Let's try it. Active up password.
V: Orchid.
Digital Voice: Correct. Merlin here. Come in.
V: But how could this be?
M: You've opened the door to the house before. My passwords are always something that a fox can instinctively solve.
V: But was orchid one of them?
M: Yes, it's the first flower to bloom in the world. If you look around, you'll see only orchids.
V: What about the rose in your room?
He paused for a moment and continued with a smile.
M: This is a topic for another day; let's focus on our current task. We should gather the materials and start your training.
He hurriedly went inside. I wondered what could make him so nervous; if a simple flower story could affect him this way, there must be a serious underlying issue. I chose to keep my distance. Lost in thought, he returned with a bucket of soil, a bag of kindling, and a bowl of water. Apparently, this was going to be an unusual ritual. We went back to the garden, where he drew a circle with chalk and asked me to stand in the center. He placed the materials around me.
M: Are you ready, my student? smiles
V: I guess so. What exactly do I need to do? nervous but excited
M: Most importantly, you need to visualize and feel what I say in your mind. Thinking about every detail and seeing it visually in your mind is crucial.
V: Can I do this? I'm not sure, Merlin.
He comes closer and holds my hands.
M: Hey, don't panic. If a troublemaker like me can do it, you can definitely do it. I trust you, and you should trust yourself too.
How could I say no when those bright, sparkling eyes were looking at me?
V: I'll give it a try.
M: Did my eyes really affect you that much? smirks
V: Hey, Mr. Magician, let's not cross any boundaries here.
M: Magician, huh? Alright then, let's begin. Close your eyes.
I closed my eyes, and it was actually tied to trust. I had fears and anxieties about whether he would do something to me, betray me, or break my trust. However, he calmed me with the bamboo music and his soothing suggestions.
M: Now, V, I want you to visualize a bowl of water in front of you. First, its color, then its temperature, and how it moves, exactly as I described it to you.
V: It's colorless, clear water, warm in temperature, and gently rippling right now.
M: You're doing great, my dear. Keep going. Now, you can shape it into a form.
V: I can see it detaching from the bowl and rising into the air, taking a shape.
M: I can see it too. Would you like to take a look?
When I opened my eyes, Merlin's eyes were right in front of me, taking the shape of the water. He leaned closer to my ear from behind and said,
M: Whether you admit it or not, your subconscious reflects the truth. We can't see the truth with our eyes, even if you deny it. smirks
V: I haven't seen eyes so bright and diamond-like before, that's why.
M: You should take a look in the mirror soon because as you grow stronger, this will also manifest physically.
V: That's good news!
M: If you can master more than two elements, we'll know even if you don't transform.
V: Let's continue! excited
After working on the earth element, it was time for fire. Suddenly, I began to sense someone's breathing and heartbeats on my skin.
V: Merlin, we're not alone here.
M: You messed up my memory, didn't you? Otherwise, Alvin, Luna, and Alpha are here.
V: No, you idiot, there are others here besides us, and I can sense them.
M: Stay here; I'll check it out right away.
While Merlin went to look around, I quickly messaged Luna to bring everyone to the garden, and a voice behind me called out,
Magnus: Violet, Violet, Violet, leaving you alone was such a foolish move.
V: He's the smartest being I've ever met, by the way. And what are you, anyway?
In front of me stood a creature with black-feathered wings and a lion's tail, one of the changelings Luna had mentioned.
Magnus: You're right; I didn't introduce myself. I am Magnus, and you're Victor's new toy.
As he spoke, Alvin, who had transformed into a massive wolf, swiftly swiped at him with his paw, knocking him aside. Alpha and Luna were also there in an instant.
Al: Who do you think you are, coming here like this?
Magnus: You fools, step aside, and hand the girl over to me, or my siblings and I will burn this place to the ground.
Alvin burst into laughter.
Al: Is he serious? Does he think he's an atom bomb or something?
Af: Maybe Victor fried their brains while experimenting with all those drugs smirks
Magnus: You're quite amusing, Alpha. By the way, how is your sister?
Enraged, Alpha and Alvin attacked Magnus together, and Luna yelled at me to go with her. Luna lifted me onto her back and quickly soared into the clouds.
Meanwhile, Merlin was;
Veronica: Do you smell that foul stench, brother?
Aiden: It's the scent of fear, brother, not a fox's scent.
M: Are you two experimental lab rats seeking your own demise here? I thought Victor had this under control.
Veronica: You're so scared that you can't even confront us, Merlin.
M: Perhaps you're the ones who are afraid?
Aiden: You despicable wizard!
Merlin shot an arrow at Aiden.
M: Sorry, but you're just very poor replicas, and only Alpha can use that word with me.
Veronica: Aren't you curious about Harley, Merlin? Is your love for him over because of this girl?
Merlin trapped them in a vortex.
Aiden: I think we've upset him chuckles.
M: Both of you, shut your damn mouths! You know nothing.
Veronica: We know what we know, Merlin.
Aiden released black smoke around them.
M: Oh, so simple, that's what you are, non-transforming simple lab rats.
Veronica: You envy us because we're more powerful, wizard.
Aiden: How pathetic, you traded your love, your family, and your powers for others. Are you complete now, Merlin? laughs
Veronica attacks Merlin from behind and knocks him down, then she shows him old memories in his mind.
M: Is this how you're going to defeat me?
Veronica: Do you remember how you looked at her?
Aiden: If you give us the girl, we'll take you to her.
Just as Merlin is about to accept defeat, he hears Violet's hope and her words in his mind, "You're going to send them packing, Merlin, I trust you." He gathers himself and swiftly catches Veronica and Aiden, grabbing them by their collars.
M: You'd better continue looking for your own fairytale because your nightmare is just beginning. smirks
He then throws them to a realm two kingdoms away. Merlin goes to Alpha and Alvin.
Meanwhile, Alpha and Alvin:
Al: I've used up all my jokes and powers, buddy. What about you?
Af: Hey, snap out of it! She has wings, and we have teeth.
M: I knew you two couldn't do it without me. zaps lightning everywhere smirks
Magnus: What have you done to them, you damn creature!
Alvin grabs Magnus and steps on his wings.
Magnus: Get your filthy paw off me!
M: If you're so curious, I can send you to join them.
Al: Besides, I just washed my paws this morning. They're nothing like your wretched wings.
Af: Now you tell those bosses of yours to follow Violet, or they'll encounter a whole Ryu gang.
M: And you are never alone.
Al: We'll always be here.
Alpha tosses Magnus just like Merlin did and tells him to go to Luna.
V: What were those things?
M: Victor and his sister want you.
L: They were shapeshifters, and they won't leave us alone.
Al: Don't you worry, V.
Af: We'll always be here to protect you.
Merlin rushes over and hugs me, whispering softly in my ear, "Thank you for trusting me." I hug him tightly, and then Alpha, Luna, and Alvin also hug me tightly.
