Chapter XVI - Sit Tight and Fight
"Sir," said Temper. "What" asked Merford. "Um, what do we do now?" "I guess we try to get out of this forest. "But, we might have to fight our way out," said Temper. "Well, I think we're going to have to sit tight and fight," said Merford. "But sir, I don't have a wand." "Oh great, and I only have one." "Are you done talking?" said Bella. "Yes Bella,we're done," said Merford. "Let's hope you know how to duel with wands," Bella said. "Temper, get the purple robe now!" exclaimed Merford. "Yes, sir!"
As Temper ran for the robe, Merford jumped back a couple of times to clear his head. This would be simple except for one thing....his identity. Drat! This was not the time to ponder!
Without hesitation he muttered, "seizius" and in his hand was a very dark, strong and large Ebony wand. This should do the trick quite well, Merford thought. Bella stood in shock as her mouth dropped open. Temper tossed the purple robe to Merford and it wrapped around his shoulders with ease! Mirabella and Bella suddenly began to scream!
The Fligger was NOT happy about having been stopped in such a manner....and he was angry! "No", Bella screamed as he flew at them ferociously. They ran as fast as they could to a tree that Bella had headed for. Faster than lightening a door flew open and in they ran. All of them. Whew! That was close!
Mirabella gazed at Merford. "It would seem that we must join forces....at least for now! And how is it that you have such a powerful wand in your hand, Merford? And where did it come from?" " I must admit", Merford replied, "I've conjured up my most powerful piece for the situation. As you see, I am a master of wizardry,potions and power though until now, it has been a well kept secret!" "Ahhhh.. ......" Mirabella responded, "this explains a lot. You are one of us!"
