The Unusual Punishment
In a small, very ordinary town, with boring, dull families, there lived a family in hiding. This family had a gigantic secret that they wished for no one to discover, for they were not any ordinary family, they were a family of sorcery, and they were pretty good at it too.
Velvet, the baby of the family, was still discovering her talent, Shimmer was 14 and was amazing at creating fires and different types of light. The mother, Sabrina, was good in many things including: dark magic, animal magic, and dragon magic. The father, Hibucos, was great in fire magic, seeing the future, and dragon magic, too.
They had fled their home to this dull town hoping they would not be discovered. The family's magic amulet had been stolen, and the thief had hurt many wizards with it. When the wizard council investigated, they found the amulet, and sentenced the Slenada (the family's last name) family to death. The Slenada family of course didn't want to die, so they fled. They decided to stay in the town until they could figure out what to do.
As they sat around a fire, Shimmer broke the silence and said, "I know who the thief is."
"Who!'' exclaimed Velvet.
"It is Thevo, the rude vampire next door to us,'' said Shimmer.
"Now, now, we mustn't make accusations,'' whispered Mother.
''She might be onto something, Thevo just left jail, and he told us he would get his revenge,'' said Father
''Maybe this is how!'' exclaimed Shimmer.
Velvet just shivered thinking about a vampire watching her family.
"We could just sneak back into our old house, and create a truth spell, it would make him tell everybody it was him who hurt the old wizards." said Shimmer.
"It would be very dangerous, and I can not risk my family in such danger," said Mother.
"Your mother is right, it is too dangerous," said Father, "but we could at least try.
As he said these words he opened a portal back to their home.
"Home!" squealed Velvet.
"We're going to have to work fast, and quietly," whispered Father.
"I still don't approve," whispered Mother
Velvet giggled and mixed some powder, then said, "ta-da!"
Mother gasped and said, "Velvet, your power is potions, this is perfectly made, and will definitely work!"
The family was astonished at the young child.
"We must get this in Thevo's food at once!" exclaimed Father.
"I can sneak in and create a powerful beam that will distract Thevo," said Shimmer.
"I will help some-how and put the potion in Thevo's tea when he is not looking, for it is tea time for vampire's at around this time," whispered Mother.
They luckily snuck-out undetected, and tip-toed into Thevo's mansion. Shimmer then created a great beam, which distracted Thevo. Mother put the powdery-potion in Thevo's tea, while Father snatched the amulet, which had greasy fingerprints all over it, off the table.
When they were safely out of the house, they all laughed for they had done it.
Then, the Wizard Council found them and said, “What are you doing here, you have great confidence to show your face here again.
Father then said, “Please listen, Thevo had stolen our amulet and hurt the wizards. Here, this is the amulet, and as you can see it has his fingerprints all over it."
The Wizard Council then apologized and said, "We shall see that Thevo is put in jail, and your death sentence will be lifted.
The Slenada family then returned to their house, and lived happily forever more.
Little did the Slenada family know that a sinister person was watching Velvet.
