Chapter 18 I am...
The dark lake by the castle
"Welcome to the second task, this morning, something was stolen from each of our champions. These six treasures, one for each champion now lie somewhere on the bottom of the lake. In order to win, each champion need only find their treasure, and bring them up to the surface. They will have one hour to do so, after that, they will be on their own. You may begin on the sound of the canon."
*boom
All the champions dive into water, except Daisy. She slowly creates a bubble around herself, only then she jumps into the water.
"Let's try not to get wet... I hate underwater..."
P.s As she is not the main character in this movie, let's skip to the part where she finds Harmony
After floating around for nearly 40 minutes, Daisy finds Harmony and a few other students chained up in the water. They are guarded by sirens and mermaids, which aren't pretty at all.
Daisy quickly control the bubble towards Harmony, and cut off the chain binding her. She creates another bubble around Harmony and a few seconds later, she wakes up.
"Where am I..?"
"Under the lake."
"Can't we save the others too?"
"OnLy OnE~" The sirens warned.
"You heard them."
"We still have some time left, let's stay here and watch what happens next."
...
Most of the hostages have been rescued, only Hairy's and Floria's are left.
Hairy appears at the last two minutes.
"Floria has been attacked by a big squid on her way here." Hairy said while unbinding the chains on Ronny.
"What should we do about her?" Harmony points at the last hostage.
"There's no time, we should go now." Daisy is preparing to leave with Harmony.
"We can't leave her here!" Harry swims toward the girl, and instantly got attacked by the sirens and mermaids.
...
"Paralýo!" (paralyze in Greek)
Suddenly, a paralyzing shock wave runs through the water, all the creatures stop moving.
"Quick!" Daisy urges.
Hairy quickly unbind the girl, and casts a floating spell for Ronny, the girl and himself.
Meanwhile, Daisy and Harmony are already near the surface of the water.
When both of them got out of the water, Floria instantly rushes towards Daisy.
"How can you leave her down there?! She is my little sister!" She shouts at Daisy and pushes her to the ground.
"Wait!" Harmony tries to stop her action.
*pwuah
Hairy, Ronny and the girl come out of the water in the nick of time, and everyone in the crowd cheers for them.
Floria runs towards Hairy and her sister, thank you so much for saving her. She kisses Hairy and even Ronny thankfully.
"Excuse me, Daisy was the one.." Harmony tries to explain.
"It's okay, Harmony. Let's go."
At this time, the little girl runs towards Daisy.
"Thank you for saving us big sis, I saw what you did."
"You are welcome Gabby." Daisy crouches down and pat her head.
"You know my name?"
"Of course I do. Go to your sister, she is worried about you."
Before going back, she kisses Daisy on the cheek.
"That's a pretty good reward don't you think?" Daisy asks Harmony.
"It is." ₍꒢ ̣̮꒢₎
...
As they are walking back to the castle, a voice is heard in Daisy's head.
"Did you cast a spell in the water?"
"It was to save the boy."
"You know they weren't really gonna hurt the students."
"Just to be safe."
"None of the creatures were hurt right?"
"Just a little itch here and there."
Then the voice fades away.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Day of the third task
"The final task of the tournament will be finding the One Wiz Cup in the maze. Again, everyone for themselves, no teaming allowed. If there is a case where more than one champion touches the trophy at the same time, they will be transported back to the field, then the final victor will be decided through a wizard battle. Good luck champions, you will enter the maze based on your current rankings."
Currently, Daisy is ranked third, so she will be the third person to enter.
Before entering the maze, she hears the voice in her head again.
"Please, take care of Hairy."
She looks towards Dumbleton and gives him a slight nod.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*skipping forward to the end of the maze
Hairy and Xavier decide to take the trophy together. At that moment, a third hand appears on the trophy.
"Hi guys~"
"How in the-"
Without finishing the sentence, three of them got warped to a graveyard.
"This doesn't look like anywhere in the school at all. What is this place?"
"Oh no..." Daisy is standing in front of a tombstone, which writes The Dark One's original name.
Suddenly a group of hooded figures appear out of no where.
"Kill the spares!" A sharp voice resounded.
"Daisy, Xavier, RUN!"
Two green beam of light directly hit both of them, and they got blasted to the ground.
"NOOO!"
*you know what happened next, the dark lord returns blabla, so skip to the fight
"Fight me Hairy!"
*click click
A sound of something clicking can be heard.
"Oops..." Daisy is taking photo of the entire situation using the outsider's tech, and Xavier is crouching down beside her.
??????
"How is that possible...?"
"Oh hi there little Tommy boy, look at you. Time certainly didn't treat you well... your hairs are gone, you got skinnier... what the hell happened to your nose?"
(ʘ_ʘꐦ)
"I don't believe we have met before..."
"Oh we didn't, but news traveled fast, you are pretty famous around here. I just happened to know a little more about you. I gotta say your fashion sense is so bad, that robe doesn't fit you at all, it's way too baggy."
(ʘ_ʘꐦꐦ)
"Who... are... you...?" The Dark One is on the verge of exploding.
"In this form, Daisy Sunflower. The original one..." Daisy's appearance starts to change, she is slowly turning into a male in his 20s.
*Finally MC appears ´• ᴗ •̥`
"Allow me to introduce myself properly this time, Elroy Fleshwood, the son of Nicholas Fleshwood and Perry Fleshwood."
"Fleshwood? I never knew they had a child."
"You weren't suppose to."
"Well, unfortunately for you, the line of the Fleshwood family will end today! θάνατος! (death)" The Dark One casts the killing curse towards Elroy.
Elroy blocks the spell by summoning an earth golem from the ground.
"Hairy! Xavier! Bring the trophy to me, we must go quickly!"
"STOP THEM!"
"τραβώ!" (pull in Greek)
Hairy and Xavier run towards Elroy, and he casts a summoning spell, which attracts the trophy to him. Before the trophy reaches him, he grabs both Hairy and Xavier, and three of them got warped away safely.
"NOOOO!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Back to the entrance of the maze
The three of them appear out of no where. The crowds are filled with questions because none of them recognize Elroy, only Dumbleton comes to him hurriedly.
"What happened?" Dumbleton asked.
"He is back."
Hearing that answer, Dumbleton frowns.
"But for now, we are safe, so I would advice not to panic, and let's decide the final victor first. We will discuss about the situation later in your office."
"That's probably for the best..."
"But professor, he is out there..."
"Calm down Hairy, he is not in his peaked form yet, he wouldn't dare to challenge Dumbleton now. Leave the complicated things to us, the only person you should be worried about is standing next to you." Elroy points towards Xavier.
"Seems like we have our final two champions! We will give both of them an hour to rest and heal, then we will find out who the One Wiz Cup truly belongs to!" Dumbleton announced to the crowd.
Everyone in the stands are excited about the upcoming battle, except one person, Harmony. All the champions that didn't make it to the end have returned from the maze, but Daisy is still no where to be seen.
She runs up to Hairy and Xavier.
"Have you two seen Daisy?" She asked worriedly.
"Erm..." (ﾟωﾟ;) x2
