The first of many short stories I have written for my own online RPG. The world is called Allula and is just as high fantastical as any other...


"OH MY..." Cried out Sean "Iris... What have you done?"

He looked at the crumpled body upon the floor, it once had been the Mistress Barnable. Now it was merely a shell, one which although empty and lifeless still encouraged a vast amount of fear within the teenagers.

"She shouldnt have pulled out her wand like that" exclaimed Iris stubbornly "Stupid old cow tried to curse me with a binding jinx" She sharply kicked the now cooling body. "Stupid bat wont be causing fear in any of us anymore.

Sean looked gaping at Iris, his eyes twitching from the schoolgirl to the dead teacher. He began to shake as his mind raced with what would happen now. He was sure that any moment now the whole facility would burst though the other door and see what had happened. He knew that they would think he did it, he was after all 16 and Iris was only 13. He gulped a few times and glared at his sister, his face a mixture of anger and fear. "Wha... What are we gonna do? They'll lock us up for sure..." He began to look around the room for anything he could use. He spotted the Mistress's travelling cloak and hastely pulled it over the body. Pulling out his wand, flicked it and muttered 'Avelucis'. Within moments the body was bound within the cloak and as much as it were, hidden from view. Casting a glance towards his sister, he wondered what she was doing looking within Barnable's cupboards. But before he could say a word, he heard worried voices behind him.

"Quick!" He whispered though forced teeth, "Someones coming..."

"I need to find it!" muttered Iris, her voice as stubborn as ever "I'm not leaving till I find it."

"Find what?" Sean replied, anger rising though his voice "Just leave it, people are coming..."

He heard the voices just mere feet away from the door now, swearing loudly he turned and jumped out of the door. "Professors!!!" His voice trembling with a mixture of fear and worry. "Mistress Barnable..." He tried to put on a scared voice, although he didnt have to try hard. He was trying not to think about what would happen if they found out. He managed to delay them for a few moments trying to explain what had happened. "There was this bang sir... I came running and the... then... she....she..." He paused to take in a deep breath, just as he was about to continue he heard an ear pitching scream...

"GET AWAY FRO...."

There was a muffled bang and then the room where the body and Iris was erupted into chaos. Fire flared out off the door and then a trickle of blood seeped from the door way. "IRIS!" roared Sean, darting to look into the room...
