with my grandmother, my mother was next.
“The only way is to have the battle now. Besides she can stop time. She will win,” said Sama glumly. I looked at her half crazed.
“With that attitude she will,” I said. She half smiled. Drew looked at me and his blue eyes looked wild.
“We can’t! You’re not ready. No one’s ready,” said Drew holding one shoulder of mine. I looked at him fiercely.
“Drew, we have to,” I said quietly. I quickly kissed him on the cheek and walked to my mother. She was holding out two black dresses with tears in her eyes.
“It’s ok, Mom. I’ll be fine. Sama will be fine,” I said to her. Then I hugged her.
“It’s Stella,” she whispered. Then she handed the dresses to me.
“This is for you and Stella. It was your grandmother’s and her sister’s dresses. They were always in some kind of battle,” said my mother with a smile playing on her lips. Then she looked like she was going to cry again.
“You know they fought with a sorceress too. My mother’s sister, Willow, died,” said my mother then she ran off crying. I held the dress just staring at it. Who would die during this? I asked myself, would it be Sama, Drew, Katie, Ivory, Marigold, Gloria…or me? Sama took one of the dresses and smiled.
“At least they had good taste,” she said smiling. I smiled back and I appeared the dresses on us. Katie put on her fighting dress, it was strawberry colored, and Gloria just stood there looking nervous. Sama put her hand on Gloria’s shoulder and hugged her.
“Don’t worry, your grandfather did teach you some magic. You will be okay, I promise,” said Sama. Gloria smiled back at Sama. Then a letter appeared on the table. Everyone looked at it. Then I walked slowly to it and picked it up.

Let’s do this.

It had no name on it but I knew whom it was from. I knew she was watching us, wherever she was.

Chapter 18
The Last Battle

I saw Marigold and Ivory putting on some really pale colored dresses. Marigold’s was a pale yellow and Ivory’s was just white. They looked at me and smiled. I knew I looked nervous because Drew came up to me and wrapped his arms around me.
“Don’t worry. They will be okay. It’s you I’m worried about,” said Drew with his eyes bunched together. I laughed.
“You shouldn’t,” I said. Since you’re the one who might die. I gulped. We can do this. He can take care of himself. Just because some people said he would die doesn’t mean he would. I smiled. We can do this. I can do this. I was still smiling when Katie came up to me.
“Oh break it up you two. We have a battle to go to,” she said, her eyes twinkling.
“Yeah,” I said. Then a dim light shined and there sat the girl who said I came from the deepest parts of hell. I glared at her, my teeth clenching.
“What are you doing here?” I asked sternly. Everyone looked to whom I was talking to.
“You really didn’t think I could let you guys go into a battle without me, did you?” asked Dawn as sweetly as possible.
“Actually I did,” I said with mocked innocence. She scowled at me.
“Well, I brought some people,” she said still frowning at me when she waved them forward. The girl kind of looked like Santa Claus but he didn’t exist…did he? I shook my head. Dawn smiled like she was enjoying my confusion.
“This is Noel, Santa Claus’s daughter,” said Dawn. Noel looked at Sama and smiled.
“Hey Sam,” she said. Sama smiled.
“Hey Ellie,” said Sama.
“Ellie?” I asked.
“Noel, Ellie? It’s a nickname,” said Sama. Then Sama and Noel started talking.
“You guys! YOU GUYS!” I screamed. They all turned to look at me.
“Hello? Battle?” I asked. Then it sunk into their heads.
“Oh,” they all said quietly. Sama signaled us to follow her. Then my dad appeared.
“You stay out of trouble,” said my dad. Then he kissed the top of my head. I smiled up at him.
“Yeah hard to get into trouble in a battle, Dad,” I said sarcastically. He smiled back at me sadly and let me go. I kept following Sama with Drew holding my hand. We all went through the spiral of death (A.K.A the portal) and we were in the North Pole. I walked out and I think I saw about 2 hundred polar bears.
“No way,” I breathed. I heard other people saying things but I wasn’t paying enough attention to them to hear them.
“Meet my army,” someone said and then all the polar bears roared. Some of them were drooling a lot and others just looked bored. Then a girl appeared in a cloak. She looked like she was about five. She pulled down the hood of the cloak and showed her face. She smiled evilly. Her eyes were the darkest green. Her hair was raven black. I knew who she was but I couldn’t believe it.
“Your Sarah?” I asked surprised. She scowled at the ground and then looked up at me.
“You sound surprised, dear,” she said sweetly. ‘Dear’ sounded very weird from a 5-year-old girl.
“Um, I am,” I said. Sarah glared up at me.
“Well you shouldn’t,” she said. Then she turned around.
“Let the battle begin!” she shouted at the polar bears. Then they started to run at us.
“Oh boy,” said Drew. Then he ran up to some polar bears and started making spells. Mostly force field spells. The only thing was, the polar bears were sucking up the magic from the force field spells. The small and quick force field spells knocked them away but disappeared quickly. I gulped and turned toward Sarah. I smiled.
“So is this one on one?” I asked her sweetly. She smiled her evil smile.
“Of course,” she said. I smiled back at her. I felt my magic building up and I let it out. It didn’t seem to harm her.
“I thought you were so mighty and powerful,” said Sarah in mock sweetness. I gave her a hard smile. We were circling. Then she threw some spell at me and I dodged. I tried to blow her up but she dodged and the ice behind her blew up instead. She looked back at me nervous for a second but it passed before I could make sure. Then she made a ball of green fire magic and threw it at me. I was almost knocked off my feet. I could see my magic was circling me so I didn’t fall. I smiled.
“Is that the best you can do?” I asked. She scowled. Her eyes turned a metallic gray and I felt pain. I knew it was in my head but I felt it anyway. I screamed. I went down to my knees. I was face to face with the little devil. She smiled but her eyes were still the gray color. Drew turned to look at me but by then I was too late. I couldn’t call out to him. The polar bear he was fighting knocked him down. I screamed out in more pain but not because of Sarah, because of Drew. I looked at Sarah. My eyes were turning coal black I could feel it. I got up and her eyes were black too but the dying kind of black. Her face was turning paler and more corpse-like by the second. Then I closed my eyes. I couldn’t do it. I opened my eyes and she was gasping for air like a little fish. Her hand was at her throat and her eyes turned back to her green color. I waved my hand and knocked her away. I heard her head crack on the ice. I closed my eyes and turned away. When I opened them, all the polar bears were gone. Only one was there and it ran away as fast as it could. I ran up to Drew.
“Drew! Drew!” I cried out but his eyes were opened and he was seeing nothing. I started to cry. The tears were coming out. Ivory just stared her hard stare. She did not cry. She never did cry. Marigold was crying and she was hugging her father. She was crying and crying. Katie was crying silently unlike the rest of us. Sama just looked puzzled. Katie looked at me.
“All the polar bears were an illusion. They weren’t really there,” she whispered.
“Besides one,” whispered Sama.

Chapter 19
Drew and Sama

I could hear them. I could hear them crying. I wanted to tell them it was okay, that I was alive. I wanted to open my arms and hug and kiss them all. But I couldn’t. I couldn’t see and I couldn’t move. I felt paralyzed. The last thing I saw was my beautiful Samanthia screaming out in pain, all because of that evil little girl, Sarah. But when I turned around to try to help her I felt pain as well. I felt the polar bear eating my magic. I felt him bite into me. But then he was gone. I heard my mother Katie calling my name. Then I heard everyone else. The most distinct voice I heard was Samanthia’s. When I was younger, I promised myself that I would never fall in love. That I would just get hurt when I do. I told myself that after my father died and my mother was drowned in despair for a long time. But even though I tried, I eventually did. I fell in love with Samanthia and I wish I could tell her this now. I wish I could tell them all that if I was dying then I was off to a better place.


It didn’t make any sense. Drew couldn’t have died. It’s impossible. Especially since he was an immortal. I turned toward Samanthia.
“He was immortal right?” I asked her quietly. She glared at me.
“Yes. But why are you bringing that up now? You know sometimes your really cold hearted, Sama,” she said. Then she walked away in a huff. Sometimes, Samanthia gets a bit…hot headed. This whole family does, now that I think about it. I was still wondering how it was possible for Drew to die. The polar bear could’ve sucked up all of his power but the polar bear was only on him for a second. It wouldn’t have enough time, not to mention that it was an illusion anyway. So how was it possible? Ivory calls me a Déjà vu seeker
