Ella whizzed past dilapidated building, the scent getting stronger as she neared the open road. There were trees on either side of her now.They stood tall and the shadows cast over her made her shiver inside.She kept on following her nose and soon the stench had become unbearable.She parked her bike at the side of the dirt road as she exited of the tar. Gathering a few branches , she hid her bike before slowly making her way into the woods.She walked slowly and carefully, making sure not to step on any fallen twigs. She did not want to alert Judy that she was here.As the smell got closer, Ella hid behind a tree. There were also others coming. She could not tell who it was, so she crept a little closer to the gathering."Tomorrow is the blood red moon!" She heard someone saying," one sacrifice can make all you problems disappear or your dreams come true.""Blood moon?" Ella thought this sounded familiar. She had heard this before."I am not upset with you Judy. Don't cry. " A hand

Officer Duke and Ella counted down in their heads.ThreeTwo OneThey both ran towards gargoyle Judy on opposite sides of the fire, dragging Mr Grim with them.Soon Mr Grim was flying through the fire. His body now engulfed in flames.Ella should have been feeling deep remorse about what she had just done but her Luna raged in her. She knew that she had to save her own skin.The ropes burned and Mr Grim was now flung into gargoyle Judy.They both lay in a heap.Standing on opposite ends, Ella and officer Duke drew in deep breaths, they huffed and puffed and blew the flames.The screams that rose from the circle of fire pierced their ears but the continued on their quest to vanquish the evil within it.What seemed like almost half an hour, left them tired and worn out but all they could see beyond the smoke was two bodies that fell to the ground in a heap of ash.They both met at the pile of ash, sniffing and pawing through the remains, making sure that they were destroyed for good.O

"Come quickly." Jon grabbed Ella's arm and led her up the stairs."Jon? You? Here? Now? Why are you helping me? " Ella looked confused as he led her to her new suite."Your father is a very clever man. He has eyes and ears everywhere. Do you really think her would send you here all alone?" Ella was amused by his words. "Why didn't he just tell me?" Ella was now serious."Because child. He knows you wanted to do this on your own. But he had to make sure that you were alright. We are just merely here to make sure your stay here is as smooth as possible. Your mission is completed and you are back safe and sound." Jon rubbed her back as he showed her around her new suite."I know it's rather small but I assure you, it has everything you need." Jon opened the closet. There was an entire winter, spring and summer collection filling the closet from end to end with every matching shoe Ella could think off. " There will be a security guard posted outside your door twenty four hours a day and

Ella opened the door, her jaw dropped open and soon enough, she was pinned onto the floor.A large goblin with a pointy nose and chin stared into her eyes.He laughed loudly," looks like I win the prize."Ella wondered what he was talking about when a witch flying on a broom wizzed by and whacked him on the tush. The goblin rolled over and landed flat against the wall."Oh no. You don't!" The witch stood next to Ella when was still on the floor.Ella looked at her black outfit, it was kind of a goth look. Although her body was slim and her hair so radiant, her face was a picture of all things wrong.It was shrivelled and large warts appeared on her nose and cheeks.Ella was disgusted when she looked at her curled brown nails.She didn't know what to expect.Ella felt her hair being tugged, the witch had now bent down and started to drag her towards the door. Ella looked at the guard passed out. His body was half on the floor and half on the chair, upside down and unconscious with dro

The room began to spin and Ella held on to her bed.The spinning made her dizzy and she closed her eyes tightly together until she felt the air become , cleaner and fresh. The whispers of the wind on her cheek made her draw in a deep breath of morning dew.She opened her eyes to the majestic view that lay ahead.She was out in the forest. The only thing that came from her room was the bed she was still sitting on.Ella pinched her arm twice to make sure she was not dreaming and definitely not dead.The cooing of the exotic birds filled her ears and the honey suckle and wild berries filled her nostrils as she sat up taking in deep breaths.The colourful plants and large trees blocked out most of the sun, but where the rays of sunshine broke through the leaves , sparkled like glitter.Ella's eyes had adjusted to the new lighting but the goblin was still struggling to adjust."This is cheating he shouted. She knew that this us my weakness. I can't see in such bright light." The goblin mo
