The Double trouble (Queen to the rescue)

Alfiyya and Neil moved towards the enchanted pit along with Jeon and Meiki beside them. Meiki was on Neil's shoulder continuously staring at Jeon.

"Ask what you want to little Meiki." He got a little startled turning pink by the sudden voice of Jeon. Neil chuckled and spoke, "I wonder how have you been by the side of Commander for centuries ?"

Meiki slowly spoke, "She is not more scary then her father, so I am used to it." Jeon chuckled and spoke, "Of course she is so much like her father when it comes to attitude and exactly like her mother when it comes to her appearance."

Neil was listening to Jeon seriously. The atmosphere got tensed when Neil asked a question out of nowhere, "Professor Jeon ? The dream walker is my father ? So am I a prince ? Why things are so messed up and broken ?"

This was the question He never wanted to answer. He halted on his steps and asked Neil, "I heard you were the weakest when it comes to royal academic's result." Alfiyya knew things were heating up so she decided to go with the flow and support Professor Jeon and spoke, "No professor he was never weak. He just easily gets scared, so lady Dalia would always favor him the most. Commander Aella would also have soft corner for him because she thought he is the baby in the group."

However the unanswered question remained unanswered and Meilki's reaction diverted everyone towards him.

"Oh Oh Holy Mystica look we found the secret entrance to the hideout of Evil lord."

It was a deep tunnel and the entrance was huge but guarded by several little dwarf black monsters. Alfiyya annoyingly said, "We studied about them in the 9th year of royal academy. They are really a trouble urghhh !" Neil was stunned staring at them when he muttered, "This is a double trouble, if we kill them they will again come at us with double strength and number. If we don't kill them they will eat us alive."

Jeon heaved a long sigh and spoke, "The control to evil Lord's spell is deep down in that tunnel, Aella has the power of fire in this dimension and the curse is aggravating her pain. We can't let her body get destroyed before finding the Black Crystal. After all her body is the body of human."

Alfiyya was determined to not let anything bad happen to her she abruptly moved towards the tunnel slicing every monster, Meiki panicked and turned thrice his size when they saw Alfiyya being overpowered Neil and Meiki charged towards them without thinking anything. Jeon sighed and spoke to himself, "Their genes scream same enthusiasm." He sat on the ground and again took a long breathe as the old memories clouded his mind he shrugged it off and began enchanting something.

The fight was lethal they were fighting and the monsters were increasing but then suddenly all monsters froze at their spot like they are little black ice cubes.

Neil and Alfiyya both were stunned while Meiki said, ''There you go he ended the third curse of double trouble by freezing them, you people made me fight for no reason huhh''

''Let's enter the tunnel without wasting any time kids. We have a long way to go 10 more spells are waiting for us.'' They all marched into the tunnel Alfiyya created a sphere of fire that instantly started to burn her hand which made her weak and she collapsed.

Jeon asked her angrily to stop using her powers as this tunnel is the source of the aggravating spell and any use of power will drain the core energy of the affected one this is the strongest spell of the evil lord.

As they moved forward there were three ways ahead so they decided to move further individually. Meiki went with Jeon as he already used his power to end the third spell which made him weak.

There were many mirrors ahead in the way that Alfiyya chose every mirror showed her the scary face of a witch unlike the real appearance of Alfiyya a silent whisper clouding her mind continuously telling her ''You are a witch you are evil, you are supposed to ruin the happiness of everyone and be happy alone.''

The spell of clouded identity fourth spell that attacked Alfiyya. It made her weak it seemed like she will not get through it but this was actually just a thought. In a swift move she cracked every mirror and destroyed the hidden black mirror that yielded fourth spell. "Cool he ran away taking the source of aggravating spell. Coward" she thought to herself.

A smirk formed on her lips as she touched her amulet around her arm thinking to herself. ''Why did they forget I am the last of Alfayay Clan? Identity crises and me? Not a chance. Fine 9 more to go"

A pathway filled with green huge snakes awaited for Jeon and Meiki as they moved forward. "I sense one more spell down and ninth ready to be down." Meiki said calmly and it transformed into a huge monster caterpillar eating up all the snakes and burping loudly as soon as he turned back to his real size enjoying his victory he screamed loudly tied up in the wild branches.

Suddenly Meiki who was screaming felt nothing captured it and tunnel pathway is empty as he ran toward Jeon all scared and trembling huffing hard to breath.

Jeon giggled and spoke, "You hasty little Mystic creature Two more spells down." Meiki saw his reflection in the broken shards of two glasses scattered on ground and spoke, "But I really ate those snakes I swear"

Jeon smiled and said "Spell of real dream and spell of fear the unknown you actually ate the snakes in your dream but they were created by spell and as soon as you got over it the second spell attacked you scaring you to death."

"The two spells together are lethal." They further moved into the tunnel meeting Alfiyya on the other side and ahead was just one path moving forward they found that the long tunnel entered into the secret door of royal palace.

The three of them were amazed when they saw a dark room full of mirrors. Meiki mumbled, "The source of 13 spells of Evil lord" Jeon widened his eyes in shock when he saw the glass statue that held the soul of a woman who was so dear to him.

He stumbled and fell on ground as he quietly uttered, "Ana, Queen Ana he had her all these years." The rage in his eyes stormed like a boiling volcano as he destroyed all the mirrors of the room Alfiyya and Meiki were frozen to their spot seeing Jeon angry like this for the first time, his eyes turned golden and he chanted the release mantra in his mouth the windows of room shattered the walls collided and in no time there was an explosion and that secret room looked like ruins of centuries. No one could sense it too in the palace as the room was hidden.

A weak figure with pale grey eyes and broken pink wings stood in front of broken Jeon and weakly spoke, "Stand up Jeon! you had nothing in your hand. you could never save me unless you reached here." He did not looked in her direction and sobbed saying, "2000 years that evil creature trapped you here and nobody knew it." Ana gave him hand to stand and said, "I have heard everything in these 2000 years and have cried enough. Take me to my Han and Neil"

Jeon cried even more, Ana wiped his tears and said ferociously, "You have done best you could. Han wont like his best friend crying like this. We all have suffered enough now he will suffer. he will suffer for every tyranny now. Stop it professor Jeon."

"Ummm emergency here." Alfiyya hesitantly interrupted they both looked at her and she worriedly spoke, "Professor Jeon we were able to shatter 11 spells" Meiki joined in and said, "According to my information the aggravating spell still exists and the last spell has affected forest and the animals they are gone crazy."

Alfiyya further added, "Neil entered forest through tunnel's pathway." "Oh Neil" Meiki said worriedly, Ana smiled and said, "I will see him for the first time and help him find his hidden power too. Let's move quick."

Meanwhile Neil flew here and there saving himself from the attacks of dangerous carnivorous creature, he breathed heavily thinking why they are after him when he can never hurt them.

Even the trees would try to harm him slapping their branches on him. He could not even hide and tiredly said, "Oh mom I am dead" A sudden attack of a ferocious lion at him was stopped through a shield and left him astonished. When Ana appeared in front of him and spoke, "You only glow pink? I thought you had golden power of your father too."

Neil scoffed and spoke, "Who are you? Yeah General had them and he died." The smile on Ana's lips vanished and she replied sternly, "Dalia did not tell you how to talk to elders? Dont worry mom is going to teach you very well little prince."

He widened his eyes as she lifted him with his ear and said, "You both were born at the same time inheriting both of your parent's powers to protect Mystica and the crystals. Now focus on your golden power and tame these animals in two minutes"

Alfiyya stood with wide opened mouth astonished, "She has been same since centuries and has done this to me and Dalia as well." Jeon spoke beside him looking at the mother and son.

Neil turned pink in anger and spoke, "Okay leave my ear and my lady taught me very well it is you who did not tell you are my mother. Please leave me I will try."

Ana glared at him and said,"Do not try just do it. Take a deep breath close your eyes and focus upon your core energy. Do it before the shield is broken."

Thus he followed his mother and did the same turning from pink to golden he found his core power and a huge energy radiated from his body and with an explosion the 12th spell broke down.

The aggravating spell made Neil unconscious yet they were relieved all is well that mission ended well. The queen is back as Jeon sighed in relief and Dalia took a long breathe thinking, "The longing of 2000 years, the curse of 2000 years, it all ended and they will at last reunite, at last one happy reunion."
