The sun was beginning to set on yet another day at the
Academy. Now, most folks at seeing dusk approaching would
be preparing to turn in for the night, but for a certain student...well,
things were just getting interesting.
Standing out in the courtyard, James made sure to look around
and ensure that nobody was here while he practiced what he set
out to do tonight. At seeing no souls around, he let out a sigh of
relief and pulled out a blue gem, holding it before him as a flash of
light and dark magic came forth to wrap around him and transform
him into his witch alter-ego.
Twirling a strand of long white hair, she summoned forth her double-ended staff, one end with the sun symbol, the other of the moon, and got to work on channeling the powers of the dark.
She focused intently as the shadows in the area grew ever stronger...and before long, something bubbled up from the depths. From the darkness rose up a series of living masses with eyes and tentacles and horns that prowled about the area.
With a flick of her wrist, several black fireballs formed in mid-air and she began moving them with simple hand gestures. The orbs spiraled around her before merging above her head into one larger orb of black fire with a pair of eyes in it. The creature floated down to be gently pat by the witch girl. If one listened closely, you could almost hear purring from within.
Next, the shadows along with the giant mass of black fire came together and formed into one giant mass that bubbled before extending a pair of wings out and gaining claws and a scaly body to it. Being one of her bigger creations meant the witch needed to focus quite a bit for this to work...
