After academy got out Aisha, Daphne and I Went over to
Rolf’s to check on Aruni, Ania and Shreedha again. They were quite happy and I
noticed that slowly Shreedha, Ania and Aruni were recovering. Shreedha was
getting her sense of humor back, Aruni had thrown her Sudha Murty hater bag in
the dustbin and Ania was no longer the nerd, but they hadn’t recovered
completely yet. Shreedha was still a bit serious and her jokes were lame, while
Aruni wasn’t crazy about Sudha Murty like her original self and Ania still
loved reading story books. I now trusted them. I asked Rolf “How are they
getting back to their old selves so quickly?” “They weren’t implanted with the
permanent chit yet and the magic around here is slowly clearing their heads. If
they were implanted with the permanent chips, they would never ever have recovered.”
Said Rolf. “Will they ever snap?” I asked
Rolf again “Yes, there are still chances that they will default to the bad
side. They need more magic to recover, more than is there in my little shop.” I
let out a sigh of relief. “The secret place I will take them to has a lot of
magic.” I said “Where is this place by the way?” asked Rolf “Can’t tell you
before my friends. Will Aisha be okay?” I said “Only if she stays here which
isn’t possible, the longer she stays in the academy the more under their
control will she be.” I was scared, I had to take her there. I was interrupted
by Luna coming in with a plate of cookies.
That night as soon as my mom was asleep, I took my
diary out and sent a message to my aunt Lena. Yes, I sent a message all the way
to Pennisota through my diary for it wasn’t an ordinary diary. It was magic. My
aunt Lena lived in the forest near Pennisota. Everybody in Pennisota had separated
the forest into two parts the illegal portion- The dark forest and the legal
portion-The moon forest. Little did those Pennisota people know that the dark
forest and the moon forest was one forest and that it was inhabited by fairies
and all kinds of mythical creatures. My aunt Lena so happened to be the queen
spirit of the forest and the queen of fair folk. I and my dad Ajay were the
only one who knew about this. So anyway, I sent a message to my aunt through my
diary and she promptly answered inviting me to come to visit her. I immediately
obliged and said the spell to transport me to the forest. I reached in a few
minutes and headed to my aunt’s castle. My aunt was waiting at the gates. I
loved my aunt dearly. Whenever I visited her, she told me stories about her
adventures before she became queen spirit, but today I had no time and couldn’t
listen to her wonderful stories. My aunt sensed that and took me to the castle
library. As soon as I entered, we made a beeline to the elevator that took us
to the 10th floor of the library. After we were seated comfortably my
aunt asked me “What is wrong Dorothy? Are you worried about your dad? If so,
don’t worry he Is safe.” “No Aunty, I am not worried about dad. I came here to
seek your assistance.” I said “Okay go on.” Prompted my aunt. Without wasting a
second, I launched into my tale. I told her everything from the fight to the Sous
aliens attack and so on. When I was done, I was out of breath and frustrated to
see that my aunt wasn’t perturbed in the least. “She waited for a moment and
then said “You can bring all your friends except Daphne. You can even bring
Rolf and Luna.” “but why can’t I bring Daphne?” I asked “because I don’t like
her name and her attitude. I can’t handle overly excited people.” Said my aunt.
I rolled my eyes at her; my aunt could be very picky sometimes. My aunt was
very stubborn, so I had no choice but to listen to her. After another hour of conversation about
topics ranging from my father’s latest mission to the latest gossip among the
fair folk. After the conversation I felt at peace. After the conversation, I
bid farewell to my aunt and went back home the same way I had come. Now there
was a new problem. How do I take my friends to the forest without Daphne’s knowledge?
