the adventures of crystal charmers

part 9: the family trap

... "Let go!" I yelled as i was dragged along the carpet. The whole of my front side was burning in pain from the friction on the carpet. I desparetly tryed to dig my nails in the ground but that only wore them away. I was dragged into the living room and when we got there she let go and the chain disapeared. I stumbled to my feet as she locked the door but she quickly turned and a new chain with a dark purple glow wrapped it self around me, making sure i couldnt move my arms or legs. I then felt a sharp kick to the back of my legs which make me fall to the ground. "Seriously Vendle you couldnt catch her." Marie flicked her hair back into place, as if every strand had to be perfect. "Uhhh we thought we'd let you 'ave a go at catching and save our energy for once eh." The giant called Vandle said. Marie just gave him a disgusted look and then she sat in her chair and folded her legs. The old man with striking white hair with a narrow black streak, got up using his cane which was jet black with a weird green orb on top. He slowly shuffeled over dusting his suit down. He placed his cane under my neck and made me lift my head up. I had my extremely terrorfied look on my face. "Hmmmm.... she looks very average what's so special bout her henry?" He directed this question at the short man who was still clutching his hand. "Hmm i dont know boss just lookin at her made us scared you know like butterflys." He kneeled down and stared directly into my eyes. Something came over me and i spat in his face. He looked really adjitated by that and he removed his red hankerchief from his pocket and wiped his face. Then Marie stood up and strolled over and kicked me in the side hard. "Ahhhh!" I screamed. She placed her foot on my back and dug her heel in and said." How dare you, if it was my choice you would be burnt alive for that." Her red eyes looked narrowly at me with anger. "I'm sorry." I cried. She rolled her eyes and sighed. She dragged me to my feet. "Shall we leave her in the dungeon till tomorrow?" The old man cackeled " Hmmm yes that might chill her out a bit." He mocked me by trying to be cool. I was so tence i could just punch him if i could.Then a rag was place over my nose. I could tell it was cloraphil or what ever that knock out thing is. I felt so drowzy and i saw the room blur out and i fell to the floor like a leaf from a tree.

I felt my arms tingling from the pins and needles. My legs werent holding up to well either. I opened my eyes even though they still felt quite heavy. The place was like a proper castle dungeon as there were old rotting bricks, rusty steel chains hanging from the roof, mold in the corners that made the place stink of wet dog and a pile of bones in a heap on the floor. I yanked at my arms trying to break the chains but no success. I then began trying to break the leg holds again no result. I was keeping myself calm but inside I was trembling in fear.I kept screaming,yelling for help but no reply. There was no door like it wasnt a cell it was just another long corridoor. I felt myself wanting to rest but i kept telling myself to stay awake. All of a sudden the belt started to glow red again."oh no!" The same burning sensation passed up my skin. I felt myself being consumed by the fires dancing around me. Then i fell to the floor. I glanced back at the chains and they melted like they were just wood. I got to my feet and looked at the new red outfit that some how attached it's self to me the gloves on my hand felt so warm. I decided to forget about this and try and escape. I wandered down the corridoor and noticed the camera's watching my every move. "Hmm so thats your surprize well we know how to deal with your type." It was Marie speaking over the intercom system. Even though her voice sounded more relaxed I knew this was bad.

Then I heard a splashing sound like running water and I saw the room begin to fill with water. I surged on fast and I got to a door of corse it was locked. I knew that but i still struggled with the handle. The water was rising fast it was already to my waist. Then i remebered and I began shouting for the girl called Scarlet. The water continued rising it was now past my sholders I was holding my head above the water. I continud calling her but no answer so i swam back to the other room where I knew there had to be a weak spot in the wall. I dove under and started banging the wall but it all sounded the same. I rose back up to notice the spikes on the roof I took another breath and dove down and then I heard the grinding mechanism play its horrific tune as it slowly came down. I paniced and yelled forgeting that I was submerged in water about to be impailed by bloody rusty spikes. I placed myhands over my mouth trying to hold the air in. That was when i felt something grab my arm. I noticed the door was open the lock had been busted off. I saw the person struggling as well but they continued swimming so I decided to stop being a dead weight andhelp. We made it through the room just as the spikes hit the floor.

I felt like I was crying but i was underwater so it was inpossible. The water began to drain and we both rushed to the surface and the other removed the mask around there face. "Cough. Thanks so much." I stuttered as I gasped for air. I noticed that she was a she and she said "What ever pyro" I was so confused "It's Crystal not Pyro." I told her . She swam away and said " Dont care if its Crystal, Blaze, Ember or what ever you want to be called but to me all you people are the same." If I knew what the hell she was on about I might have been offended but I still have no idea what Pyro means. I swam through to another room where it was dry. I twisted my clothes to try and drain them but she only drained her mask thing. "So whats your name?" I asked. She turned and snapped " It doesnt consern you!" I was really confused she hates me like we are long time enemies but we just met. "Uhh but what can I call you?" She lunged at me with her sword that she drew from her back. She placed it right close to my throat I could feel the metal touching my skin. "Listen I hate you and you hate me""I dont hate you?" "What ever you can call me Eri but I dont care to talk to you just count your self lucky that I saved you." She removed the pressure on the sword and put it back in its scabard and she walked away. I noticed that she was a ninja from her attire. The mask gave it away but she wore a dark purple shinobi shozoko which is what ninja's call there uniform. I knew this as I was obsesed with ninja's when I was younger. "What!?" She said as she noticed i was examining her outfit." What are you?" She scowled at me "your joking right? Im a ninja. An elite agent in the shadow clan." I knew she was a ninja but I just needed to know for sure. She drew a dagger like weapon . "This is called a Kunai it can be used for many things such as hammering down a door or wall." She began tapping the wall.

"How irritating!" It was Marie again on the intercom she must have noticed I was alive. "For a Pyro you disapoint me I was expecting more fire works but you must be new to this. Hmmm luckly for you Eri could save you." Eri turned in shock "How do you know me!" She yelled. She was so furious I tryed to calm her. "Eri it only works one way." She turned to me and pushed me away and continued banging the wall. We heard Marie laugh. "Hmmm perhaps you to need to get a bit closer how bout we have a short sharp heart to heart." She laughed as she switched some buttons and then spikes grew from both walls. " That pysco witch!" The walls slowly came together. "There is always a way out." I knew this from the many cartoons I grew up on. "There is no way out!" Eri yelled. I slapped her. It just felt needed."look a trap door." I said pointing to the roof. Eri put some gloves on and clicked her fingers and her boots got thiner. "What was that?" "Ashiko spikes on my boots to help climb." I was really jealous. She began climbing she climbed with ease. "Hey Pyro careful dont let the spikes touch your skin there coated with Curare poison." I glanced at my outfit and noticed it was torn in places which made my skin exposed. "Great!" I yelled. I had to climb using just my feet and the palm of my hands. I know fingerless gloves look cooler but now is a crappy time to wear them. I sucked in my belly to make sure it didnt touch. I was constricted for air but i climbed on. Eri had reached the top and she was doing the splits to support her self while she messed with the trap door. " Errr Eri can you hurry please." She threw a shuriken back at me and it cut part of my hair. "Hey! Whats the big idea!" I shouted. The lock clicked open and Eri climbed through and helped me through.

We both fell to the ground and lay down in the very familiar room. It was the room where I was sleeping, the place where Rosline lay on the ground. She began to move her arms that must mean the drugs were waring off. She held her head and looked at me and Eri. She froze for a minute then she screamed. We both dived at her trying to cover the scream. "It's me Crystal." I wispered."You two know each other?" Eri asked. Rosline kicked us both away and yelled " Get off me you ginger freak you are not Crystal!" We lept back to cover her mouth again."I thought you'd remember me." I saw my belt glowing. " Is that from Dracoat? It looks fancy." Eri said. I felt myslef cool off. "Crystal im so sorry forgive me I just couldnt tell." It was awkward but I knew she was sorry. I stood up and the door opened. I heard a slight gust of wind that made me fall to the ground. Me and Eri were forced to the back wall and Marie walked in. Rosline was pulled up by Marie and then she stared me in the eyes. She moved her hand out and it made me un able to breath."Whats your real name girl!?" She demanded. "I told you it's Crystal." I uttered. "Second name!" She yelled. I felt the pressure on my neck tighter. "Gemerald."I said. Her grip got tighter."Stop Mrs Charmers your hurting her."Rose exclaimed.My face froze and Marie knocked Rose to the floor."What is your name!? A tear fell from my face and it made my contact fall out."Its Crystal.... Charmers."Her grip let go and she froze in horror."Lier!" She kicked me while i was on the ground.I began to cry." Im not lying im adopted and i have no idea who my true parents are." She stood there for ages thinking of what to say but i knew now who Marie was. She was my mother.........
