Magical Elementa

Chapter 6

Christal answered, "Maybe. There is a unicorn spell that I read about, and it was written that the effect was that your appearance could change. The spell is "imago transformatio", and all you have to do is concentrate on how you want your test subject, which Francis in our case, should look. Then try it out but remember that you need to focus." 

Elenora wasn't sure if she could do it and mumbled, "But what if I mess it up? I never tried this spell". 

Christal replied, "I'm sure you won't mess up. Skye can try if it's that important to you.". Elenora agreed.

Elenora pointed her horn at Francis and exhaled a few times. Then she pronounced her spell, "imago transformatio!" Around her horn, it started to sparkle and glow, then it flared and shone around Francis till you couldn't see him. It was getting stressful and demanding for Elenora, and she was trembling. She felt like someone was draining her energy away. It was a glowing sight, but then the glow and sparkle disappeared from Elenora's horn, and the light turned weaker around Francis. It was starting to glitch away from Elenora's horn, and it was going and coming back the whole time. While that was happening, Elenora noticed that the spell wasn't working and whispered, "No!" she couldn't take it anymore and stopped casting the spell, then collapsed. All she saw was darkness all around her. It was just black.

She heard someone's voice, which yelled her name; "Elenora! Elenora! Can you hear me? ELENORA!" Elenora opened her eyes and heard herself heavily breathing. Francis, Skye and Christal looked at her with fear and worry. After a few minutes, she calmed down and tried breathing slowly and normally. Then she tried laying down on the floor (just like a horse does). Suddenly Elenora felt very hot. She had water all over her face and body. She realized that sweat was all over her, and the trembling was almost over. But the spell was too demanding because she had never done that spell, and it didn't feel like any magic she could do for her age. Christal questioned with worry; "Oh, thank goodness! Are you ok? If you don't want to do the spell anymore, you don't have to! I made you do this spell against your will, and I'm so ashamed of my actions! Did I forget to mention that it's much easier for unicorns at least 18 or above?" Elenora assured her and stated, "It's ok! Calm down! It's fine. You- Wait... What did you say in the end? How could you leave that part out!?". Francis responded, "Take a rest, Elenora, while Skye tries it. Skye, are you ready?"

kye immediately agreed, "At your service!" Skye was ready and pointed her horn at Francis. Skye cast her spell; "imago transformatio!" Like Elenora, Skye's horn glowed and sparkled; the same happened around Francis until you couldn't see him because of the glow. Then she was also trembling and sweating. Sometimes she mumbled to herself, "Almost there...." She was going to be finished soon. But then her horn was glitching just like Elenora's. She yelled, "Not going to happen!" She tried using her magic to finish the spell even harder. Her horn didn't glitch anymore, and she was finally done after a few minutes. The glow and sparkle around Skye's horn were slowly fading away, and when she was finished, she quickly sat on the floor to rest. She was sweaty, and she was breathing fast.

After that, Christal, Skye and Elenora couldn't recognise Francis anymore. His skin wasn't light red anymore; it was... sapphire blue! Christal was amazed and happy at the same time. Skye was busy resting under a nearby tree but proud of herself. Elenora was speechless and felt like Skye had done a spell that teleported another unicorn to them. Francis saw Christal, Elenora and Skye staring at him for 5 minutes. So he asked, "What's wrong? Do I have something on my face? Or in my teeth?" Elenora got her voice back for a few seconds and stuttered, "Y-You have b-blue...." She couldn't find her voice anymore. Elenora was shocked, but Christal continued for her and chuckled, "Skin! The spell worked! You have blue skin!" Francis looked at his legs. He was also startled and groaned; "My skin is blue? I didn't think it was going to work! Please tell me this isn't permanent, Christal! Please tell me I'm going to be okay!" Christal explained, "You're going to be okay". Francis scolded, "You liar!" Christal ignored that and continued, "The spell doesn't last forever. One day maybe, and I don't think we will stay longer than one day". Skye suggested, "What about his mane? I think the colour baby blue will work". Christal agreed; "True. Skye, would you mind doing his mane? Skye mumbled; "The spell pretty much sucked all my energy out, and I don't know-" Elenora interrupted Skye and informed, "I can try it again. I'll be fine". Christal was not sure about that and said; Are you sure? What if you get injured somehow, or what if you callops again?" Elenora repeated; "I'll be fine. Trust me".

Christal finally agreed after a few minutes, and then Elenora took a deep breath. She pointed her horn at Francis. Then she chanted her spell, "imago transformatio!" Her horn glowed and sparkled, and the same happened around Francis till you couldn't see him. Elenora was sweating and felt very hot. She was trembling. It was getting frustrating and exhausting. She was almost done. While that was happening, Elenora thought, "I can do this. I have to do this!" Soon, she was finally done. The glow, shimmer and sparkle wore out around Elenora's horn and Francis. She was finished, and then she directly sat down. Elenora rested under a nearby tree (Where Skye had sat down before). In front of them stood a sapphire blue-skinned and baby blue-maned unicorn. Skye was astonished and stammered; "You...I... What happened?" Christal did the opposite and sang out, "Yes! It worked! Your hair is blue! Your hair is blue!" Elenora was too drained to say anything, so she smirked and felt proud. Francis was unsatisfied and just hoped the spell won't last an eternity. After a few minutes, Elenora noticed something and shared, "Guys, we better be going! It's getting dark, and we don't have forever". Skye spoke; "Elenora's right. Let's go, guys!" Christal mentioned very politely; "One more thing! Elenora, would you mind teleporting us to the North Pole? If you don't want to do it, it's fine too especially when you look so tired". Elenora responded, "No, I wouldn't. Are you guys ready?" Francis, Skye and Christal cheered together; "Yeah!" Elenora chanted her spell, "lanuae!" They got transported to the North Pole.
