"Let me tell you the burning truth."

✦ ✧ ✦

"Okay Zillah calm down, we need to make sure everyone is safe first and then we will talk okay?" Celeste decided as Zillah looked her dead in the eye. "I don't care about your stupid civillians. Tell me who has it so i can leave." She looked angry but Celeste stayed calm.

"I'm not telling you anything, you'll stay in the castle and you'll wait there until im back." She confirmed as her wings appeared and she flew towards the city.

"Who are you," Zillah shouted towards me and Raven.

"I-I am Rowan a-and this is R-Raven," i stuttered as Raven nodded and I just looked at the ground. Zillah was so scary, she had no emotion except anger. Its the only thing I could see in her.
"What power do you have dumb face?!"

Do i really look that dumb?

"I-I have umm... I have a teleportation power, but i don't really use is, it can only teleport to places i can look at, you know. In the d-distance eheh-" I stutter when i'm scared okay?

She scanned my body and she decided to leave, she turned around and walked towards the castle. Okay that was intimidating.

"Zillah," Raven suddenly shouted. Zillah stopped and she glanced at Raven.

"You're a good queen, please come back to Tempest." Raven smiled a little as Zillah her eyes widened. She looked at the ground but didn't answer. She turned around and walked to the castle.

We slowly followed Zillah into the castle. Zillah opened the massive front door and the inside was burned but still there. Zillah sat on a chair around the round table and waited for Celeste. We slowly took place around the table but not to close to Zillah. We don't want to annoy her.

The door opened again and Celeste flew inside as she swiftly landed on the ground. She saw us sitting around the table so she joined us.

"Now we can talk." Celeste sat infront of Zillah. Zillah looked her straight in the eyes. Dude if eyes could kill you could pick me up and put me into my grave.

"Someones has your power, and you will get it out of them but i won't let you take it. I have no idea what your plans are if you can fight on 100%." Celeste stated as Zillah thought in silence.

"Did you speak with your mother?" She suddenly asked. Confused Celeste shoke her head and answered; "No. I have no idea where she is, she left to visit some forest but she never came back." Celeste looked down at the table but then directly looked back at Zillah with her eyes slightly widening.
"Why do you wanna know?"

"Do you know what your mother did to me?" Zillah asked, her eyes slightly closing.

"She send you away while you tried to protect me, right?" Celeste doubted her answer as Zillah leaned in her chair.

"You have no idea who that woman was, do you?" Zillah said with a deep voice.
Celeste started breathing faster as she tried to speak.

"Why do you mean, 'was'?" Celeste asked as Zillah leaned forward as she put her arms on the table and supported her chin with her hands.
