The Golden Wand

Within a flash, I saw I come back to my terrace. I looked around and cannot find her. Is she gone? What? how am I supposed to find the wand now? Why did she leave like that?. I hate magic like this now!!! I made a done face.

I screamed a few times-" Grandma? Grandma? help me please." But no, she disappeared as if she never existed.

Aunt Nevlin woke up from the noise and came to the terrace, she yelled-" What the hell are you doing at this time? Your mom died, I get it, but don't become mad, who will make our breakfast if I had to send you to the asylum?"

I sensed the sarcasm and the threat in her voice. Which was making me a little scared and mad at the same time. I nodded as I faked a smile and followed her. We came down as I went to my room after she left. I thought all night about what just happened, I couldn't believe, not only I am a witch but also the only heir of the Witchdom. But I need that golden wand to see my father and grandma again. Where do I find the sweetest memories of our family? Because I have never been with my family before. It was just me and my mom. I spend the next few hours thinking about this as I couldn't sleep all night. The next morning, I was back with the routine, making breakfast for them, helping Shany to get ready for school, and doing the household work. I completed my work and came back to my room, I started thinking about what grandma said to me again. Suddenly, an idea struck my mind. I remember mom once told me about the day I was born. That day, my father was present there, he holds me in his arms, and blessed me for a good future. After that he left us, so my family and the most amazing memory I have of my family is the place where I was born because that was the only place I had my full family. So I spend the next two days, finding the place I was born.

Without informing anyone, I went to search for that place. And finally, in the woods, after an hour or so I found a small cottage, probably abandoned and very old, that was the place I was born 17 years ago. At that time, this use to be my father's cottage. It was the same my mom described me. I entered that cottage, it was very dark, and I barely could have been anything, I tried to search the room as much as I can, and after some time, I saw a big wardrobe, covered with a cloth. I removed the cloth and opened the wardrobe, to my surprise it was a secret chamber somewhere, I entered it as I was shaking a little and to my surprise, it was exactly like the place I have dreamed of. The big dark room, and empty. I knew the wand must be here somewhere. After some time of searching, I saw something shining in the dark, I followed that shining light and reached there. I saw it. The wand. It was an amazing beautiful golden wand. Without any next thought, I took it in my hand, and just then I felt someone's presence in there. I turned back holding the wand close to my chest. And looked if anyone else is present there or not. And Suddenly, I saw a shadow floating towards me. It scared me a little, I couldn't see that person properly, as the room was pitch black, but I can only see a faint creepy smile on the face of the person. The person was flying towards me and I noticed the person's hands which were slightly forwarded as if it is coming to take the wand, I recognized that person as the same person from my dream. I couldn't understand what to do, how to escape.

The voice said in a low whisper-" Give me the golden wand"

I panicked and I screamed aloud-" AHHHHH!!!" What should I do now? How does this magic work? AHHH wait... Grandma... I whispered in fear-' Equimenous Wizarda '

And BOOM!!! My grandma arrived with a flash, and within a second I saw we were standing near the big oak tree we came earlier. I looked at her who was giving me a warm smile. I hugged her without much thought as I was scared of what happened earlier.

She looked at me in happiness and said-" Well done my dear, you have done it. You have found it. This wand is one of our ancestors, The greatest witch, and she had last used it to fight evil. This has great powers, more than we can imagine. Not even your father or I can use it because it was meant to be for you. You are a true heir and bloodline of Macduff."

I smiled but was still in shock at what just happened. She gave me a tight hug to which I responded quickly. I forgot to tell her about the shadow.

She said-" Now let's get back home, shall we?"

I looked at her and replied-" Can I please visit uncle Tom once before we leave? He was a father figure to me."

She nodded and we flew back to Uncle's home. Aunt Nevlin and Shany were shocked to hear the truth. But Uncle Tom was very happy. He had always known about me, as my mother told him everything. He was finally happy that I got my family back.

I came and hugged him-" Goodbye Uncle Tom, Thank you for taking care of me and my mother"

Uncle Tom wiped out his tears and said-" Goodbye my dear. Hope you have a safe and happy life. And say hello to your father from me okay?"

I replied-" Okay"

I looked towards aunt Nevlin and Shany and I said-" I forgive you". before leaving from there.

They never spoke anything to me as they hung their head low. It was a big day for me, a new hope, a new dream. Finally, I am going to meet my father for the first time. I couldn't control; my happiness. I am going to my home.

We left from there and came back near the big oak tree. Grandma looked at me and said-" Okay, Now get your wand ready and repeat after me ' Macduff's Entree '

I repeat-" ' Macduff's Entree ' "

And within a moment, we walked inside the tree, breaking in from the barrier as we entered into Witchdom kingdom. I looked around with awe and shock as it was too much for me. It was a very beautiful place, with big landscapes, mountains, and flowers. I can feel the magic in the air. Grandma showed me our palace, It was huge, and I cannot believe that I am going to live there. I couldn't believe it still.

I was wandering around suddenly I saw a man in his 30's maybe walking towards us with a big smile. Is he my father? I looked at granny as she nodded which made me sure he is my dad!!!

I saw my father fly over to us, he was crying in joy to see me. He looked at grandma with hope is it me? His daughter? Grandma nodded and he runs over and hugged me, I hugged him back without wasting any more seconds. For the first time, I found my father. My family, my home. My happiness was at its peak as tears didn't stop flowing out of joy. I wish mom could be here with us. But I remember her last words " Everything will be alright" Yes it was, I finally found my family and I was happy.

My father said-" Let's go home okay"

And happily, we started a new life from there.
