The Secret of the Enchantress

Chapter Ten: The Past Revealed-Hypnotizing Execution

It was silent as Camerrai brought her lifeless sister's body into the castle grounds, silent as she walked through the hallways and silent as she finally walked into her parents' throne room. Then the wailing and the yells of surprise and horror came from the closed doors. The murders of Princess Crystina and the twins, Yanka and Yasha surprised and angered everybody. But nobody was more angry than Camerrai. As they laid Crystina's body to rest one gloomy morning, Camerrai watched with mixed up emotions. She was waiting for when the High Enchanter would show his disfigured face so that she could give him a piece of her mind and her energy blast! Unfortunately, she did not see him. In fact she did not see Zoravar all day, but she did she the woman responsible for her sister and the twins, sneaking around not wanting to be caught. Camerrai glared at her and started to follow her.

Ninundira looked around anxiously, trying to make sure nobody saw her, when all of a sudden Camerrai materialized in front of her. Ninundira screamed in surprise and instantly tried to run away, but Camerrai squeezed her fingers into a fist, making a sort of stop spell. Ninundira gasped as her limbs slowly came to a halt. When she did stop, Camerrai walked in front of her, her silky midnight blue dress flowing around her ankles and asked "Why do you run from me, Ninundira? Why are you so afraid? Did you do something that would make me angry at you for...like murdering my sister?" Seeing no way to escape the wrath of the angry noble, Ninundira fell to her knees slowly in desperation. "Please, your grace, forgive me...I...I was only doing what I was told to do. I regret every minute of what happened to the young princess. I only hope you can forgive me." The councilwoman pleaded with tears brimming her eyes.

Camerrai looked down at Ninundira with a stoic empty look on her face. A single tear rolled down her eye and she kneeled down in front of the cowering woman. Ninundira gasped as she looked into the brutal fiery blue eyes of the powerful princess. "A...Are you going to kill me?" She stuttered. Camerrai glared, thought for a while, then replied, "The murder of my sister is unforgivable, but I am not going to be on the same low down level as you, Ninundira. Your treachery will not go unpunished, but it will not be by me. If your fate was to be in my hands truly, you would not be alive right now, I promise you!" Ninundira nodded, trembling wildly. "Stand." Camerrai commanded. When she did, the princess explained, "I am now going to the throne room, where my mother and father are and I suggest you come with me to confess. They will decide your outcome." With that Camerrai turned and slowly started walking down the hallway.

Ninundira gulped and while watching the princess leave, felt her fear melting away only to be replaced with anger. She glared, thinking, "That bitch...I'll kill her just like her sister. How dare she threaten me?" Instantly she made a magic ball in her hand and threw it towards the unaware princess' back 'Get her...Get her!' The councilwoman urged silently. Suddenly, Camerrai turned, catching the ball in her hand and deflected back quickly, yelling, "FOOL! You just blew your chance to live!" Ninundira's scream of surprise and pain rang throughout the hallways as the ball of magic exploded her body on contact. Camerrai stared at the now smoking pile of ashes for a moment, then turned and walked nonchalantly to the throne room. Normally, she would have regretted killing her, but for some reason she couldn't feel it this time. She couldn't feel anything anymore.

"Tonight is the night. The princess will see her demise. We will make sure of it. Ninundira would have been proud of us." The bright green eye of the High Enchanter glittered evilly as he growled, "Tonight, we will lead her to the room... there's no way she would survive it."

Carlaina sighed lightly as she walked quietly around the castle. The smell of incense filled her nostrils and she followed it to where Camerrai was found meditating on the floor of her room. A gray blue silk robe covered her nude body as Camerrai wanted to make sure she was pure before she meditated. Carlaina noticed a kind of shrine sitting in front of her and immediately knew that she was doing a spell so she stayed quiet, confidence all in her daughter. When Camerrai finally opened her eyes, Carlaina walked quietly towards her and sat in beside her. "Hello, sweet daughter. How are you?" She asked. Camerrai sighed deeply and then looked at her mother answering, " As good as I can be, I guess. I prayed for forgiveness to Mordechai for killing Ninundira earlier. Hopefully, he accepted my apology." There was silence and then Carlaina asked, "Is there something you want to talk about, Camerrai?" There was more silence as bright tears fell down Camerrai's face, then she sobbed, "I could feel how cold she was, Mother. I held Crystina. I DID. I can't believe the she's gone"

Carlaina could feel her own eyes watering up, but she closed her eyes to keep the tears from falling. She put Camerrai's head on her shoulder and held her daughter tight while Camerrai cried all the tears she should have cried when she needed to. When she finally stopped crying, Carlaina stroked her hair gently and said, "Everything will be alright, Mera. I'm sure of it." Camerrai nodded, sniffing and her mother said, "I love you, my special one. You are all I have now. Camerrai sat up and looked her mother straight in the eyes saying, "I love you too, Mother. So much." The mother and daughter couple hugged once more before Carlaina declared, "I am quite tired now. I will retire to bed." Camerrai nodded and, "So will I." The queen smiled and kissed Camerrai's head saying, "Good night, my daughter. Remember, everything will be fine." Camerrai smiled, then watched as her mother walked out of her room. Then she stared at the shrine. "Yes, Mother. You are right. Everything will be all right now." Camerrai whispered as she continued to chant and pray. "Our people will prosper...this spell will see to it." After she finished, she got cleaned up and went to bed.

Later that night, Camerrai slept soundlessly in her bed. Unbeknownst to her, a light mist flew into her room, under the door, flew around her body and filled into her nostrils. Instantly her eyes opened, but instead of being the dark pacific blue that they normally were, they were now a pale blue color. "Princess Camerrai...Camerrai..." A soft deep voice called to her. Camerrai silently climbed out of the bed as the voice continued, "Come towards the voice, come discover your destiny, young princess." Hypnotized by the voice and the mist, Camerrai started to walk, clad in only a dark blue silk night gown, out of the room.
Outside the sphere, Vegeta shook his head as he tried to comprehend what was happening and when he finally did, his eyes widened. The voice still beckoned. "Come, Princess. Come discover your destiny." It repeated over and over again. Vegeta frowned and grumbled, "Wake up..." Oblivious to what was going on around her, Camerrai kept going into a humungous room, a few feet away from the castle. Around the circular perimeter of the room, were 20 round glass orbs situated a few feet away from each other. The room was dark and gloomy. Camerrai stopped silently in the center of the room and waited. Suddenly their was a slight snapping sound and Camerrai blinked. Then she looked around, frowning in confusion and saying. "What in Mordechai's name am I doing here? Last I remember, I was in my bed...unless...I was hypnotized.”

A sound of applause came into Camerrai's ears and she slowly glanced up into the eye of Zoravar who was standing on a ledge. "High Enchanter...so you have brought me here. I knew that you would." She explained calmly. Zoravar grinned as he said. "I have. I am the one who will see to your destiny, your highness. Don't worry about a thing. You will see your sister soon enough. To tell the truth, killing Crystina couldn't have been easier." Camerrai's eyes flamed as he asked her, "Do you know where you are, Princess?" Camerrai nodded as she said, "Yes, I do. This is the Lightning Room. This is one of the buildings that we Magic Castors execute our criminals in." Vegeta frowned at the word, "execute" and slowly looked over at the sphere. Camerrai looked calm as she continued to show her story. Inside the room, Camerrai glared as a wind blew back her curly hair as well as Zoravar's and she exclaimed, "I knew you were the one who ordered Crystina to be killed. You were very sharp not to come on the day that Cryssi was put to rest, but be certain that you will not be so lucky this time! I will destroy you"

Zoravar's eyebrows widened as he said, "Such bold words for someone who is standing in the middle of the Lightning Room. You know your fate, Camerrai. Accept it." Camerrai's glare deepened as she asked, "What is my fate, High Enchanter?" Zoravar glared as well and said, "You have impressed the Lord of Magic, Mordechai with your 4 Elements spell that you performed on my magician soldiers the other day. He was happy with you, but most disappointed in me. He even threatened me for being too weak! ME! Zoravar, High Enchanter of the Magic Castor Saiyans. I had to make up for my mistakes somehow, child. I hope you understand why everything must turn out the way they are about to."

Camerrai held her chin up and stared straight into Zoravar's eyes. She knew her life was about to end, but all she also knew was that she couldn't show Zoravar that she was afraid of him. Not ever. Zoravar noticed, scowled and yelled, "You powerful bitch! I will not allow you to take my spot as High Enchanter. If I have to kill you to make sure of that, then I will. The question is, are you ready to die?" Knowing that there was no way to escape this, Camerrai kept her strong demeanor as she answered, "I am." Zoravar nodded and said, "Your arrogance is staggering. Such a shame. You would have made a wonderful queen. Oh well, so be it." He clapped.

Suddenly lights came on and revealed different enchanters and enchantress; people who despised Camerrai as much as Zoravar did and worshiped him as if he were their god. Evil gleamed in the High Enchanter's eyes as the dome on top of the Lightning Room opened, revealing a dark stormy sky. Instantly the followers fell on their knees and began to meditate and chant. Camerrai didn't move from her spot. She was ready to accept her outcome. The glass orbs begin to glow as they charged up with electricity. For the last minutes of Camerrai's life, she stared at Zoravar with a hatred unlike any other. Zoravar stared back and as he did, noticed a silent challenge from the princess' eyes and took that as his cue to end her life forever. As he wrapped his hand around the wooden lever that would unleash the electricity, he stared into Camerrai's eyes one more time and yelled, "I dispatch you to hell!" He then lowered the lever down. All at once the electric currents went up the metal rod that were situated above Camerrai's head. It rushed right at the princess. Camerrai uttered a silent sob and calmly closed her eyes. The electricity hit Camerrai straight on top of her head. Then there was a colossal explosion.

Everything turned bright outside of the screen. Vegeta shielded his eyes and then noticed something. A blast of electricity came towards the Sphere of Light and the princess in it. Before he could warn her, the blast hit the sphere forcefully, making Camerrai blink in alarm and fall backwards. She hit the sphere with her back and almost immediately the energy from the sphere covered her. Camerrai cried out in pain and the sphere projected her to the other end. Vegeta wanted to help but didn't know how. Soon, Camerrai was flying to every side of the sphere, screaming in agony. The sphere gleamed bright. Vegeta noticed with wide eyes that he could see Camerrai and Bulma splitting up and he realized that he could lose Bulma if this sphere exploded. 'No, I will not lose her. Not when she is this close to learning about herself!' He thought, gathering a ki ball in his hands. He let it go, making hit the Sphere of Light.

The ki ball made a hole in the sphere and the sphere ejected Bulma or at least who he thought it was Bulma, into the air and into Vegeta's waiting arms. The sphere then exploded, fading out of existence. After making sure everything had calm down, Vegeta looked down at Bulma. She was as limp as a rag doll. Then his eyes widened in amazement. Bulma was not the same person that she was before. Her hair had taken the form of Camerrai's which was ankle long and curly. He lifted up her legs to take her home but gasped and almost dropped her when he realized something else she had. He picked it up. Attached to Bulma was a tiger stripped tail. Through his amazement, Vegeta could barely hear Bulma mumbling, "...Crystina. Crystina, I'm so sorry..."
