Okay so hello again wattpad. So how's it going? For me it's going swell :) But Blue Eyed Swans is loosing popularity quick! Please help me keep it on the charts. I would be eternally grateful thank you :). And now onto Chapter 15.
Violet's P.O.V.
The ball was a lovely turn out. Small glowing lights would fly around with refreshments slowly spinning around it. The decor was amazing. It was all themed white complimenting a lovely shade of royal blue. And on one of the tables there was a amazingly sculpted swan made of ice. I was enjoying some time with Vincent, who I seemed to be talking to more then I did even when I was his best friend.
"So, you have realized that Alec and Celeste left the hall about 20 minutes ago?" He asked with a chuckle, and I nodded.
"Of course I have! I'm here best friend I always know when she's up to something." I looked around and still didn't see them. I sighed slightly bored of sitting there and twirling my drink.
Apparently Vincent noticed my boredom because then he cleared his throat.
"Would you like to go go dance?" He asked sweetly. I smiled I had been hoping for this moment all night.
"Definitely." He graciously took my hands and led me out to the dance floor. He placed one hand on my waist and in the other held mine whilst I put my other one on his shoulder. We slowly began to dance and after a few seconds of awkward silence he told me something.
"You know. Being a vampire means I'm immortal which I've been spending years to get rid of. Because being immortal means that all my wizard friends could die and I'd look barely a year older then I do now. After years and years of looking all I could come up with was, only a diviner could solve my problem. And you know Violet, you happen to be a diviner. You can take away my immortality. You can save me from having to watch all of my friends die." I looked at him amazed at powers I didn't know I had.
"I can?" I asked incredulously. He nodded.
"How will we know? I mean if I got rid of your immortality? Without killing you."
"Simple," he began, "cut me. If it doesn't instantly heal then we know." I smiled.
"We'll start working on it tomorrow." I said.
"Agreed." He replied.
Just then out of the corner of my eyes I saw Celeste walk in quietly and I let go of Vincent's hands. I looked in her direction and he got my intentions.
"Go ahead." He said with a light smile.
"Thanks." I replied before hurrying off.
By the time I got to her I walked into the middle of a discussion between Celeste and Rowan.
"I did it." She stated. "I asked him. And then I walked away."
"Celeste no! You don't just say something like that to him, and walk away!" Rowan exclaimed shocked.
"But I did! And now I don't know what his reply is! Oh what will I do if he says no? There isn't anyone else for me to ask!" She sadly continued.
"Then force him! He can't say no! The rules are you choose one or none." Rowan comforted her. What were they talking about? Then slowly I pieced it together. She asked Alec to be her partner! Wow go Celeste. But she walked out on him so now she doesn't have an answer. Rowan sighed and was about to say something when Alec walked in.
He held something in his hands and he stood at the top of the stairs. The music screeched to a stop and he wales slowly down the steps. He walked through a parting crowd toward Celeste. Oh my I thought to myself. His approach remained slow and when he finally stood in front of her he got down on one knee.
He held out his hands in which was her tiara. She felt her head and realized it wasn't there but before she could thank him he spoke.
"You left this in the magic garden." He mused as he got onto his feet. Carefully he set the tiara on her head.
"Besides," he continued, "every princess needs a crown." He slowly backed away and said just one last thing.
"And by the way. My answer is yes. I will be your partner" Celeste stood there for a moment unsure of what to do. But then she walked up to Alec and wrapped her arms around him and he hugged her back.
And the whole room burst into applause.
~The Next Day~
Celeste's P.O.V.
Alec and I stood alone in Ebenezer's office ready for him to explain our mission and what we had to accomplish within a few days. He looked at us yet again looking genuinely happy and began another of his long speeches.
"I am glad to see that you have chosen someone Celeste." I smiled in reply and he continued right after.
"But that is not why you two are here. You are here because you need to know how much time you have, where you're heading, how you'll get there, and what you need to do. Honestly I must say we have only a week at best but we need you to have Julianne back in your hands in 5 days. And all of us there by the end of the week.
So first order at hand what you'll be doing. Well you'll obviously have to rescue Julianne and Vincent will help you out when you get to that point. When you do have her back you'll have to be ready to summon all of us wizards here. All of us going to battle will be stationed in the Great Hall ready to be transported. The spell is a simple one and Vincent will write it down for you to examine later.
Anyway after you have transported us to the battlefield we will be ready to attack when Scarlett does. You will lead us and....then the prophecy will be fulfilled." He stopped for a moment and I swear that the temperature dropped a few degrees. Ebenezer started up again not looking as cheerful when he started.
"Where you'll be heading," he began trying to avoid the subject altogether, "is some place we didn't know as a possible residence for the vampires. The 3rd dimension. Which is why you'll need to use the ...... other method of travel to get there since that is the only way. So follow me and I will show you just what that is."
Silently Alec and I followed Ebenezer further into his office and into another room entirely.
"Now Celeste," he said directing me to one covered side of the room, "go in there and I'll explain it from there." He instructed Alec to do the same on the other side of the room. Once we were inside he began another explanation of his.
"Now the other method is only known to a elect few, including the rescue team, Vincent, Violet, and myself of course. What it is that; on the inside we all have an animal that is our soul animal. You can travel in this form of a soul animal by saying this spell. View nostram et transfigusre nobis. Now say it and don't worry about your clothes they become your skin."
Alec and I said the spell at the exact same time and we began to transform immediately. It was painful at first but as I shrunk I grew accustomed to it. When I was done I looked in the mirror to see what I had become and when I did I couldn't believe my eyes. Oh now this was hilarious.
Alec's P.O.V.
I looked into the mirror and I began to laugh. Well as best as I could in my should animal form. I heard Ebenezer's voice calling us to come out so he could see what we were. Carefully I shook my feet and tried walking on them. This is easy I thought and walked out into the open wondering what Celeste was and as soon as I saw her my heart skipped a beat.
"No way!" All three of us said at the same time. Why you may ask? Well Celeste and I had both turned into the same animal.
We were both pure white swans.
