《Fire and Stars》Chapter Nine
Advertisement
Penelope looked around the entrance of the cafeteria. "What now?" Penelope asked. "I don't know? Maybe we need to attract the killer." Isabella said. Penelope and Isabella looked at each other. Then a strong noise of anger surprised them. An animal dragged Penelope. Penelope saw the face of a deer made out of leaves and twigs. The deer's eyes were nothing but fire and light like little suns. The deer's antlers were white twigs. The deer was covered in brown leaves like a normal deer would be covered in fur. Penelope started yelling as hard as she could thinking it would startle the deer. The deer started running as hard it could and then slammed Penelope's body into a tree. Penelope slowly fell down to the floor. The deer tried to stab Penelope with its twig antlers but instead cracked its antlers. The deer ran away. When it was running the antlers grew back through light as a part of the antler appeared in light then it became the solid twig.
Isabella heard the deer run away. Isabella ran to Penelope. Once she saw Penelope's body, she ran to find Juniper. It took more than hour but, eventually Isabella found her and told her about Penelope. "I can't heal her." Juniper said. "What do you mean you can't heal her?" Isabella asked in a tone full of anger. "I mean I'm only a fire summoner." Juniper answered. "What?" Isabella questioned. "I have a question, did Penelope see her sister's messages without summoning?" Juniper asked. "Of course, she did." Isabella quickly answered. Juniper had a surprised look on her face.
"Then she's going to be okay," Juniper said. "Here let's go back." Juniper summoned a fire and called a spell. The fire then jumped around to lead them. Juniper ran with Isabella. Juniper and Isabella went to Penelope's body. Penelope was awake and in pain. "What?" Penelope asked to Isabella and Juniper staring at her. "You're a balancer," Juniper said in serious tone. "What?" Penelope questioned. "In this system of magic there are two types of summoners. A fire summoner and a light summoner. It is the easiest to be a fire summoner because for fire all you need to summon is your anger but for light summoner you need to summon your inner peace. Light summoners are less common for that reason. Balancers have to do both. Reagan's death in some way allowed you to do that and Reagan gave power to help use your skill." Juniper explained.

"What was that attacked me?" Penelope asked. "A resurrame," Juniper explained, "A soul that has been kept alive by a summoner in the mortal world. If I'm right Reagan wants you to release the soul of that deer and then her soul will be released." "Is Reagan a resurrame?" Penelope asked. "Yes, there is two ways a soul could become a resurrame. The first way is that a summoner can kill a being and then cast a capture spell on the being. The second way is that a soul can asked a summon to place a capture spell on them." Juniper explained.
"I think Reagan contacted a summoner from the nearby village." "What do I have to do to the dear?" Penelope asked. "You have to find the deer and kill the body, capture the soul, and let the soul go into the light." Juniper answered. "Can you do that?" she asked. "Yes," Penelope answered. Juniper nodded and Penelope nodded back. Juniper disappeared with the fire like she did before.
Penelope and Isabella looked at each other for a few minutes. "Can you get up?" Isabella asked. "Now, I can." Penelope responded. Isabella took out her hand and helped Penelope up. Penelope wiped off the dust from her clothes.

Transposition
Please note: the Sexual Content tag is there due to a single brief plot-relevant scene, which has a warning at the beginning. For other details, read the full description below. Rating breakdown, since that should be public info: 5 x 5*, 2 x 4.5*, 1 x 0.5* During a blackout, a frail and ragged old woman stops to ask for a glass of water from a backyard barbecue party. Given a good supper instead, she looks around the group, and tells them, "Be who and what you truly are." Days later, seven of the people from the barbecue find themselves drawn into a trap laid by a pair of wizards and their accomplices, who kidnap them into a bubble reality. All seven, who have known each other all their lives, are informed that they are not in fact entirely human: they have active fae blood, due to a series of conditions culminating with the blessing of the elderly fae woman. The transformation into fae form comes as a shock: all seven, whether originally female or male, find themselves now unreasonably beautiful women. More urgent even than that, though, is their captivity. Getting back to the real world is a higher priority than this metamorphosis that rapidly begins to feel natural... but this is only the first step, as the diverse types of fae blood they carry begin to surface. With no resources except themselves, how can they escape this prison? If they succeed, how can they possibly reclaim their lives? Just how many other faelings have been kidnapped, anyway, and what happened to them? And is there a way to make sure that their captors never put anyone else through this? Back in the real world, Kayla, who learned long ago to trust her gut instincts, is absolutely certain that something is very wrong. The pattern in the list of missing friends is easy to spot, but makes no sense at all. Then a young woman turns up at the backyard gate who knows more than she should, and even though her explanation makes even less sense, every instinct tells Kayla that Riley is her only way to get them back. If they're not quite what they were, well, that's a bridge to cross later... Just a little note: I'm a big believer in endings that are upbeat but not candy-coated, and not a fan of grim-and-gritty or of glamorized violence. These are adults in a difficult situation. However, no one gets raped, and the physical violence is, all things considered, fairly minimal. There is some harassment, sexual and otherwise, and also some mild restraint and mild verbal abuse. Complicating factors are generally wizardly or fae in nature. If I need to warn you about gender in this being all over the map, some of it reality-based rather than fantasy-based, highly diverse sexuality, or that there is (especially later) some indirect fetish/BDSM imagery and honest character discussion, then you probably should just avoid everything I write. :-) Also available on Scribble Hub.
