Once upon a time...part 9



Would powerful and evil trample the meek and good? There was tension in the air. The only thing that was in both the parties mind was to win. Their means of achieving dreams were different. Maxim wanted his love and Arcus wanted power.

The war between love and power began. Who was going to win? Nobody had a clue. Queen Candice wanted her daughter to be safe amidst this mess. 

There were spells used between the teacher and his disciple. Initially Maxim found it difficult to pull in his tricks. After few hit backs, he was back.

Arcus was surprised by his student’s talents. Maxim did have good hold on them. He knew which spell backfired his master’s.  

He couldn’t bear it anymore. He was tired of fighting against Arcus. He was powerful and more knowledgeable than him. Would he be able to save Princess? It was an impossible task.

Queen Candice saw things were definitely not fine. She at once directed the army to help Maxim. But that didn’t help. Arcus had wiped them away like as if they were dust. She thought of last option-she had to bring back her past to save her daughter. Her ugly past she had hid beneath her for so long. She was sorceress before she had become a queen. 

She used best of her power and spell to weaken her opponent. “You made me do this, brother”, she said monotonously.  Everyone looked at her side, trying to understand the words she said. “You took away my love , my son and everything that was dear to me. You were my blood brother. How could you do  this to me? (breathes deeply to clear the emotions) Now I won’t let you take away my daughter.”, she continued. “ I wanted both of us to rule the world. But you chose love over power. So I had to do it on my own.”, he said with wicked grin. In fit of rage, she glared at him. Her stare was enough for him to turn into ashes.

                                                 **********
Everything was back to normal. Princess Adele was at last allowed to go out. Queen Candice helped Maxim start his own institute for teaching sorcery. Maxim and Princess Adele officially started dating though Trigger did go walk with them.

Faraway land and palace was back to it’s happy times.
