Ashley's diamond necklace


There was a girl named Ashley Wills. Her friends used to call her Ash. She was the only child of her parents. She was kind and ready to help anyone. Her dad was a business man and her mom was a famous fashion designer. Her family was the richest family at that time. Ashley was a student of William high school. She was friendly to all her classmates. But there were few who were very close to her like Mimi, Josh and Gwen. She had a huge crush on a Spanish boy named Jake. Jake and Ashley were friends since 1st grade. Like everyone in high school has a rival so she had one too named Courtney.  Courtney always got jealous of her and every time when Ashley throws a party at her place she was always there to spoil it completely so that Ashley’s reputation could be ruined, but that never happened. Her life was going well.
     
     One day her class trip was going to a not well known village near by the city. People there were all sick and ill because there was no proper treatment given to them. The teacher took the student there so that they could see the life in a village and make a report on them. While Ash and her friends were talking to the villager’s oldest lady who was a fortune teller she started to stare at Ashley first. And suddenly she said, “YOU!!”  The girl at the back she pointed at Ashley and said in a deep slow voice in Ashley’s ear:
            YOUR  LIFE  IS  GIONG  TO  CHANGE ,  DIFFERENT   THINGS ARE   GIONG   TO  BE   HAPPENED   IN   YOUR   LIFE   FROM NOW   ONWARDS .
      She got scared and got out from there, Gwen went after her and told her that there is nothing to worry about, she is just a crazy old lady and if anything is going to happened we are always there with you side by side. Josh and Mimi also came out and were telling her to just ignore what the old lady said. After what her friends told her, she was a bit relaxed. Then the teacher gathered every one and said that get on to the bus we are leaving in 5 minutes. At the whole way she was thinking about the fortune teller. "Why she said all these stuff to me??"
             She reached home and went straight to her room and lay on her bed. She was so tired, without having dinner she went to sleep. As she closed her eyes taking a deep breath she saw a lady sitting in a corner of a room crying, she went close to her and asked "what happened why you are crying?" Suddenly she grabbed her hand and pulled her toward herself and said: 
            You have to come and help us all, only you can help!”
      She woke up and looked at the watch it was 7 am. She got out of the bed and went downstairs for breakfast. she was quite at the table mum asked her "what happened?" She replied "there is nothing to worry about its just I am a little tired after the trip yesterday and also didn't sleep well."
         If you are not feeling well then don’t go to school today.” Said mum.
     No mom its okay I am good,” said Ash politely
     Mum replied:  "Okay as you wish but do eat something before going to school." She went to her room, changed her clothes and got ready for school. She heard a sound of a horn, she looked out of the window and she saw Josh, Mimi and Gwen in a car waiting for her, She went downstairs and sat into the car with them. At the whole way she was quite. Mimi asked her "What happened?"
         "I am thinking about that lady, the fortune teller." Said Ash
"Are you still thinking about that lady? Just forget that." said Josh
     "ok guys leave this topic for a while," said Gwen
     She was not attentive at school the whole day. At pack-up time Courtney came to her table and said rudely: “Is the baby girl got scared of that old lady?
"Stop teasing ash," Jake said and they left.
"Okay guys I have to go home now and get some rest." Said Ash

       That’s a good idea, said Jake
               She went home and began to start a report, what the history teacher gave her for homework. She was so into her work that she don’t realize what the time was. As she finished her work it was 8 pm. She lay onto her bed and went to sleep. This time she saw the same old lady from her previous dream, she was making something. She went close to her and asked what are you doing? She gave her a necklace, it was heart shaped and the heart was of red diamond covered with metal coating, after handing over the necklace to her she said:
"Take this necklace; this is going to protect you from all kinds of danger you are going to face."
              She asked: "what kind of danger you are talking about?"
  "You will see when the right time comes. This necklace is going to guide you to your destiny." Said the old lady
             "When and how would I see you again?" Ash said
     "Just come to that village where you came a day before yesterday there is a forest nearby, you will find me there."  Old lady replied
           She opened her eyes. The clock was showing 6:45 am. As she looked in her hand she saw that necklace from her dream. She got scared she called Gwen, Mimi and Josh and said to come at my place now. The all got there as soon as they could, she told them about her dream, and showed them the diamond necklace,
Seriously is it happening? Josh Asked.
  Okay then what are we waiting for? Come on lets go find that old lady,” said Gwen.
They all sat in the car and went to that forest. They were searching for a house or anything else through which they can find that old lady, but they didn't find anything. It was almost dark.
“May be we should go now and search for her tomorrow it’s late,” said Mimi.
“I think you are right I can’t risk someone’s life in danger tomorrow we will continue our search from here. Said Ash                                                                   As soon as they plan to leave her necklace began to shine and was pointing towards the middle of the forest, they followed it. They went deep inside the forest and suddenly her necklace stopped shinning. She thought they were lost because they didn't know where they were at that moment.
Look guys I can see a house,”  said Mimi
        “I can see it too,” said Ash, Gwen and Josh
    They went close to it, to see a better look. Ashley opened the front door slowly, they went inside the house.
          Is anyone home?” Mimi yelled
    Stop yelling Mimi I think this house is haunted!!” Said Gwen
                  Stop it you guys.” Said Ash
       “Did you guys hear something??” Said Josh
                  It’s not a good time for a joke.” Said Gwen
         No I am not joking seriously guys I heard a sound like someone’s coming downstairs,” said Josh
         A gorgeous girl came and said politely “how did you find this house??”
“It’s a complicated story but can you please help us out We are looking for an old lady she gave me this necklace” said Ash.
    “It can’t be,” said the gorgeous girl.
“What??” Said Ash
     The girl said: “long ago me, my mother and our kingdom lived here happily, one thing you don’t know is that, this forest is enchanted so fairies used to live here. One day queen of fairies Arial’s brother Brock who is an evil magician he wanted to rule on this forest. My mother and the fairies tried to stop him but he grow stronger and stronger after defeating a fairy and the queen become weaker after losing a fairy. The evil magician transformed the fairies into animals and took along with him as prisoners. He also took the queen. My uncle left me because he knows well that I am too little to fight with him and at that time I didn't get any powers. So he left me here but my mother told me that one day a girl would come. She will have a diamond necklace and she is going to defeat your uncle.”
“Wait… let me get this straight did you just say that I am going to defeat your uncle??” Said Ash with shocked face
         Josh laughed louder and said “you have got to be kidding me, she (pointing at Ashley) defeating a magician, is this a joke?
“stop it you dumb-ass,  it’s no time for that” said Mimi
 ”I’m afraid not, only she can do this” said the girl while pointing at Ash
         “Did you ever got out of this house??” Asked Gwen
          “NO not in the previous 10 years,” said the girl
          “Woaahhh!!!” Mimi replied
“You didn't tell us your name?? Said Gwen
           Its Carrie, said the girl.
“So Carrie you were saying something about the fight? How do I defeat him?” Said Ash
      “See the necklace, you will have to put this diamond inside his house, in the basement there is a huge mirror stick on the wall, you will see my uncle’s image on it, don’t worry it can’t harm you at that time, you will have to put the diamond on the mirror where his heart is. Then he will be destroyed.” Said Carrie
“I don’t understand why we have to put the diamond on the mirror?? “Asked Ashley
“Because my uncle’s life is in that mirror and he gets his power from that mirror when he get weakened. It’s a source to his life and power.” Said Carrie
Ashley looked down for a while, went in a deep thought, took a deep breath and replied to Carrie “Okay I am ready
 “Are you crazy?? You can’t go out there to defeat the evil magician alone come one lets go back home,” said Mimi
“NO you can’t go now Ashley you will have to help me.” Carrie requested
“Yes I will help you.” Said Ashley
“You can’t do this all by yourself we are coming too,” said Mimi, Josh and Gwen
“No guys I can’t risk your life and secondly and you don’t have a diamond to protect you.” Said Ash

  “Well I have few diamond rings with me it’s of the fairies, you can use that?? I am also coming with you guys,” said Carrie
 “Okay we will take the rings and yes you have to come with us because I don’t know where to go and what to do as I go.” Said Ashley
“Can you just tell us one thing Carrie? Why Ash is chosen for this??” Asked Gwen
      “I don’t know it’s a secret, but the queen of fairies knows because she knew that one day you will come to save us all.”  Carrie answered.
              “Okay then let’s go kick some mirrors.” Said josh
   “No we can’t go outside this time it’s dark and there are guards outside, they are made up of dark magic of the magician outside the house, the magician knows that one day the chosen one will come and will defeat him, so the guards are searching for you. They can’t get into the house because of the spell my mother put on the house before she was taken away. Why don’t you stay here tonight? And we will leave tomorrow early in the morning because the guards can’t see in light.” Carrie said.
“What about our parents, they will be looking for us??”  Said Gwen
              “May be we should call them,” said Mimi
             “Believe me this thing is spookier then she telling her to spend a night here in this haunted house.” Mimi whispered in Josh’s ear.
“Same feeling” Josh replied
      They called their homes and told their parents that they are fine and they will be back soon just have an important work to complete; the parents agreed and let them to complete their work.
Carrie took them upstairs stood in the hallway and said “Mimi, Gwen, Ashley and will sleep in this room and you josh you sleep in the next room,
      “You are kidding right?” Josh replied with a scared face.           
    “No I’m not, and I will be in my room which is at the corner of the hallway” Carrie replied.
They all went to their rooms to sleep.
                  The next morning Carrie woke up early, she prepared the breakfast and called everyone at the table.
“Good morning everyone did you all sleep well last night?” Carrie asked
“Yes” said Ashley, Gwen and Mimi
“That’s good and what about you Josh? didn't you sleep well last night?” Carrie asked.
“Actually I was scared all night thinking about the guards outside and also the broken window was making some creepy sounds because of the wind.” Said josh
They all start laughing.
Okay that’s enough” said Ashley while laughing “we have to get to the magician’s place soon.”
     
  Here I have got a map to a Volten mountain where he has trapped all the prisoners.
Mimi interrupted and said “a what mountain?”
Ash replied “ssshhh” let her finish first.
and so Carrie continued “deep down in the mountain there is his house, where he lives”
“So how are we going to get inside the house in mountain?” Asked Ashley
          “We will be using the underground passage, but there are chances of seeing guards there a lot, because it's too dark down there. So we will have to be very careful...” Carrie suggested
They began their journey, they walked miles in search of that mountain they were all tired. Ashley thought “it’s better if we all just relax under this tree for a while because its noon and its getting hot.”
 They all agreed and lay down for a while and then again they began their journey. After walking a little further,
Carrie said: “look! Guys there is that mountain.”
 They all took a deep breath and went inside but through the underground passage. As they were going through the tunnel, 
           Josh said quietly, “I think I heard a voice coming from the back….”
    “Why is it always you who first hear things?” Gwen whispered.
“You are right Josh I heard it too,” said Mimi
       “It’s one of our fairy’s voices, I think we should go and help her,” Carrie suggested
They all turn around and start looking for that fairy.
   “Look there she is I can see her, but there are guards guarding her.” Said Gwen
            Let me go. When I go out I will turn your face blue,” said the fairy
     “How do we rescue the fairy without being caught??” Mimi asked Carrie
  “I don’t know. I have never had any experience coming here” Asked Carrie
    You said earlier that the guards are afraid of light? Right?” asked Ashley
       “Yes.” Carrie replied
   “So… how is that going to be helpful here? As you can see there are not much light over here expect these small torches which we are holding in our hands.” Gwen said with scared voice.
            Yeah I know but if we place our Diamonds in front of the lamp, it will sure light bright enough to destroy the guards.” Said Ashley
“This is a bad idea. 100% chances of getting caught” said Josh with crying voice.
“Stop it you little baby” said Mimi.
They all put their diamonds in front of it and due to the bright light the guards were finished. They rush and free the fairy.
The fairy thanked all of them.
 Carrie asked the fairy about her mother??
 Fairy replied:  evil Brock has taken the queen and locked her in the dungeon. He has drained all the power from her.”
               Someone's coming” said Gwen
                   “It’s the guards” said the fairy.
     “Okay let’s get out from here before they sees us.” Said Ashley
               As they rush down towards the tunnel they heard the door opening. Mimi was in the last so as soon as she went near to the tunnel the guards saw her and they caught Mimi and the other escaped.
Josh was talking weird and nonsense “what are they going to do with her, they are going to kill her? Or turn her into an animal?? I am so worried about her. Let’s go back and save her”
       “I am worried about her too. But we can’t go back now we have to finish the evil Brock first,” said Ashley
“How can you do this with her? You can’t just leave her. She trusted you and that’s how you are going to repay?” Said Gwen angrily to Ashley

“If we go after her we all can get caught because now they know that someone's here! So now we have to be very careful before taking a decision. It’s better if we destroy the magician first as soon as possible.” Said Ashley
“If you don’t want to help Mimi, then we are,” Gwen said angrily. And went back and with Josh to save Mimi
Ashley yelled: “you will be caught too. Listen I don’t want to lose you guys too.”
            Josh and Gwen ignored Ashley and continue their way to save Mimi. As they went a little further they heard guards talking to Mimi and asking her “who else is here with you. And how did you get here?”
 As soon as Gwen and Josh heard this, they rush out of the tunnel with anger; put their diamond rings in front of the lamp, but the light wasn't that bright to kill those guards. As the guards saw them, they captured them as well and took their rings.
                     Meanwhile Ashley and Carrie were looking for the mirror with the fairy, after walking a lot further they found a room. Carrie told the fairy to find the queen and other fairies and free all of them. As Ashley opened the door she saw a huge mirror on the wall and there was an image of the evil Brock in it.
Carrie said: “that’s the one. Come on hurry up put the diamond on his heart and press it.”
As soon as Ashley touches the diamond with his heart a bright light comes out of it. They run out of the room and rush towards the Brock’s room to see what happened to him. As they reach there, loud noise was coming out of his room as  Ashley saw him, there was a flash of light on him which was taking all his power and slowly he was turning into dust, there was nothing left of him expect his body which was converted into dust and got blown away with the wind. As soon as he was destroyed the mountain began to fall because the mountain and all the things in it were made up of Brock’s dark magic.
Ashley tells Carrie “find her mother and the fairies and get out of this place as soon as possible. I am going to look for my friends.”
 Carrie saw her mother and took all the fairies along with her outside.
    Ashley was calling for her friends. “Mimi, josh, Gwen where are you guys?”
                  Ash is that you,” said Mimi
     They hugged each other and Ashley told them “we have to get out from here now.”
 They all got out safely.
Carrie told Ashley and her friends: “this is my mother and the queen of fairies.”
Nice to meet you all.” said Mimi
“Josh, Gwen, Ashley.. Mother these are the strong and the brave ones who helped me to rescue you, my kingdom and the forest.” Carrie said happily.
         “Thank you all very much,” said the Queen
                            “May I ask you one thing??” Ashley asked the Queen
                         “Yes what do you want to ask,” said the Queen
“Actually it’s about the secret,” said Ashley
  What secret??” Queen replied
     I am talking about the diamond and the old lady in my dreams??” Said Ashley
   Did you say that you were the one who has the diamond and free us all?? “Asked the queen from Ashley
“Uummm Yes,” Ashley answered
           Then you must be my oldest daughter I lost 16 years ago.” Queen replied
“What??? There must be a mistake. I already got a parents.” Said Ash
The Queen replied: “They are not your biological parents. You were the oldest daughter of Queen’s Arial and king Zeus. When you were 6 years old, my brother Brock planned to rule the kingdom. I tried to change his mind but he wasn't listening to me. He can only be the king if he killed the oldest offspring of king and Queen. Which was you, so your father sent you to the human world for your protection and handed you over to a family and told them to take care of you. It was then decided that when you will turn 18 years at that time you will be able to defeat your uncle Brock. When your father came back he fight till his last breath with Brock but your uncle was too powerful and your father got killed by the hands of your uncle. I tried to stop him as well but he didn't kill me because he knew that one day my oldest daughter will come and will kill my brother Brock. So he kept me as a prisoner and used me to call you back to the kingdom. But that didn't happened. My fairies tried their best to stop him but my brother Brock first took their powers and then convert them into animals and took them as his prisoners. He became so powerful that no one could defeat him except you Ashley. We knew that you will come some day and will save us all.”
           Then who was the old lady in my dreams??” Asked Ashley
“That was your grandmother who was also killed by the hands of Brock. She was trying to stop him as well. He was out of control.” The queen replied.
“Is there any chance for uncle Brock to come back??” Josh asked the queen
“No, he can’t come back,” said the queen
               Everyone took a deep breath!!
                                “Once again I would like to thank Mimi, Josh, Gwen my daughters Ashley and Carrie for their courage and restoring peace in the kingdom.” The queen announced this in front of the whole kingdom.
                           Mimi, Josh, and Gwen said good bye to Ashley, Carrie and the Queen. They went on the way to their city and return to their normal life. Meanwhile Ashley and Carrie were crowned as noble princess, Ashley’s friend used to come to that forest to visit Ashley. So they all lived happily ever after.
