Las Cielo Castillo :The Dark Castle
We awoke the next morning and we had appeared to have been healed Libe woke up and said "I feel great.! I can't even feel my leg in pain. Whoa, I've never seen healing that fast." "Let's not worry about it now. Let's find Rayo and see if that was a test of our strength or if she was playing us as fools." I had explained to Libe last night after Rayo left about what she had told me in the clouds about being Hermosa. We flew through the air with great speed that we had never achieved before It was wonderful to be able to race each other and not be able to know who wins. Libe used to be able to only achieve a morph of an eagle. But he had since then achieved powers and became a dragon.
We were now on the trail of Rayo. We flew for miles, miraculously, without tiring. Then a giant castle loomed before us. Lightning striked down on the roof of it. "Why does every castle have lighning above?" Libe asked. "Because we flew into a storm," I replied. "Oh," he said. "Come on, let's go," I urged. We came to the doors and they didn't have a handle or any clear way of opening them. "Look! Inscriptions on the door. Read them aloud. Maybe the door will open," Libe said " Diablo hablar en esta puerta a abierto ello." The door slid wide open. "Refresh my memory, what does that mean in Spanish?" Libe asked. "Devil speak on this door to open it." Libe looked a bit worried
It was dark and cold inside. Lights of fire lit up around us on the walls. A tall wizard in a red cloak and blue hat stood before us. He held a sword with a red cup at the top. The same cup as that of the one on the tower we used to hold the orbe. The wizard's dark gray beard moved as he talked, "Bienvenido Libelula and Triunfo." Libe then asked, "What's that mean?" I said, "It means Welcome Libelula and Triunfo. You need to study up on your Spanish."
"Yo solo decir Espanol." The wizard said.I answered the question before Libe could ask, "He says he can only speak Spanish." I spoke back to the wizard, "Que vuestro nombre?" I asked him. "Mago," He replied. "I asked him what his name was and he said Mago, which is Spanish for wizard, but we still call him Mago." I told Libe.
"I was just joking when I said I only speak Spanish amigos. Just checking to see how well you speak Spanish. Very well Triunfo, but not very good Libelula." The wizard spoke. "Rayo, bring me the esferas (sphere) at once! You are just in time for the esferas ceremony." A beautiful white elf appeared with the sphere in her hands. "Here it is Master Mago." She gasped. "How did those two get here?" Mago spoke, "That's what I would like to know Rayo. Did you pour the liquid of Claro Transparente (clear transparent) on your skin that gives you no scent?" She bowed her head. "Well that would explain how they got here."
She lifted her head up. She morphed into the Rayo dragon. "Do not worry Master, I shall take care of these clowns.!" "No," he spoke "Let them watch. You just make sure they do not stop me." Mago took the orbe, placed it in the cup and said, "Panacea, (magical) old lord of the dragons and the orbe of which I call upon. Give me your power and I shall sacrifice the esferas and the three lives who stand here today. Acabar" A light of white fire and lightning lit in the cup. The wizard cupped his hand and lighning was thrown from it towards us. He laughed and threw it again. We were dodging every lighning ball he threw at us. He seemed to find this enjoyable. I then sprung an idea.
I grabbed Rayo and said, "You throw another one of those lighning balls at us, then I shall kill her. The spell only works if you yourself sacrifice her to Panacea." He stood frozen for a moment. He then said "And what if I stop? What will you do?" "We will leave you and you can keep your powers for twelve more hours until you kill each of us yourself." He dropped his hand and opened the door. "Just a fair warning, in thirty minutes, I will come for you." I took Rayo just in case we needed her.
