Wilbert the Wizard and the Time OrbA Story by Mr. MillsWilbert purchases something that could possibly take him back to help him saved his lost loved ones, but things don't go as planned.Wilbert the Wizard and the Time Orb I had been
waiting for the answer to question I had asked Gallia earlier. “Frostwings
family died because of the Strike of Darkness, but not in the way you think.
It’s a whole different concept.” Said Gallia. “The Strike
of Darkness? How could they do that to such poor creatures.” “I don’t
want to get into detail about it.” Gallia replied. “That’s all
I wanted to know. See you after work.” I said walking out the door. “Bye.” She
said weakly waving as I left. I was on my
way to Mage’s Market. Now that I had enough gems to buy the time orb, I was set
off to find the man that was trying to sell me it. It’s the key to saving 2
beings lives. Now only if I could that one guy I called the shadow man. “Have you
heard of a time orb? Where do you get them?” I asked a man on the streets of
mage market. “There at
the stand over there in the ally way. Be warned, you can’t transfigure your
past in many sorts of ways. I wouldn’t trust that man.” The man replied. I
headed over to the stand with Frostwing crawling toward it at my side. “What do you
want? Leave me alone.” Said the man at the stand. “Me and my
dragon have just come here to purchase a time orb.” I replied. “Great. I
only got one of those left. I been holding it just in case for you.” Said the
shadow man. I gave him my bag of gems. It was all worth it. I held the
strangely rounded object in the middle of my two palms. “Lets’ head
back to shack before we decide to use this.” I told Frostwing. I flew Frostwing
all the way back home. When we got back Gallia was standing right there in
front of me. “Tell me
what you’re up to.” She said firmly. “Of course
I’ll tell you what this is all about sweety. It will just take a second to
explain. Remember when your mother died and I never had the chance to save
her?” I asked. “Of course.
Why do you bring that up?” Gallia asked. “I was very
close to saving her. I had retrieved the one flower that could save her but I
hadn’t gotten back in time. If I could use the time orb and travel back in time
I could get the flower back to her quicker.” I explained. “You don’t
even know if that works. And if it does I know it’s not right to fiddle with
time. Bad things come out of it.” Gallia replied. “I have to
try, Gallia. You can finally see your mother again.” I said. “I’m coming
with you. I have to come with you.” Said Gallia. “I know this
might be tough for you if we don’t succeed. But I want to do this with you. I
want to do it together. Obviously Frostwing will tag along too because I always
have him at my side.” I said. I clenched the time orb in my hand. “3 months
ago and 1 day.” I said with the orb. The orb burst into nothing and I was back
at the mountain of enchantments. I saw myself talking to the snake charmer. “Did you
come here to obtain spells?” The old
charmer asked. “No, I came
here to teach my dragon to fly.” My past self-replied. “Should I
tell myself about Mother Nature?” I said to whispered to Gallia. “Don’t do
it, otherwise Frostwing wouldn’t be able to fly.” Gallia replied. “Good point.
Let’s just go for the flower at the Goblin Kingdom now.” I exclaimed. Frostwing
watched his past self-learning to fly. “Frostwing
take us down to the Goblin Kingdom quick.” I said. When I got onto Frostwing,
everything had seemed normal, but when Gallia got on he growled. “Easy buddy.
Let’s take it down there easy.” I said. Frostwing slowly glided over the gates
of the goblin kingdom. “It’s behind
the lava falls here.” I told Gallia. “If this
works, you think you could save Togath too?” Gallia asked. “I don’t
know if we should push it.” I replied. The goblin
king emerged from the kingdom. “Servants.
Be on guard. I heard there is a Wizard trying to sneak into here. A little
birdy told me. Or maybe I was eavesdropping on Mother Nature.” Announced the
king. The flower was in my sight, but we
had to stay out of the sight from the goblins. When they weren’t looking me and
Gallia slowly glided on Frostwing to the lava falls. “Don’t burn
your wings through here.” I told Frostwing. He narrowed his things barely
fitting between two streams of lava beside us. That’s when we got interrupted
by a very large goblin I had never seen before. “And just
what do you two and your dragon think you’re doing here?” The troll asked.
“Boss told me what to do if something like this was going to happen. I’m
telling you things are going to get messy. He held up what looked like silver
brass knuckles on his knuckles. “That the
crystal fist! We have out get out of here Wilbert now!” Gallia said. The
strange goblin thrusted his fist into the ground knocking us off the cliff
behind lava falls. We were now falling rapidly toward the molten rock.
Frostwing saved the both of us just in the right moment. “You really
had me there, Frostwing. I thought you might’ve let us go all the way down.” I
said. Frostwing flew us out of the goblin kingdom. “What are
you doing dragon, you forgot the flower.” Said Gallia. “He’s very
loyal to me. He’ll do whatever it takes to protect me. And from what he’s doing
right now, I could tell that the crystal fists are very dangerous.” I said. All the
sudden we were sent forward to a different period of time. Now we saw the
crystal castle. Me, Gallia, and Frostwing creaked open the front door. We saw
our army facing off against the Strike of Darkness. “This is my
chance. I can save Togath.” I exclaimed. “No Wilbert
we shall gamble with time no further.” She said grabbing onto my wrists
preventing me from stopping myself. “No. I can’t
bare this to happen again. Let go Gallia!” I exclaimed as tears were rushing
down my face. “Xaptis!” My
past self-had exclaimed. Togath fell to the ground. His silver dagger bounced
toward me and Gallia. “Togath’s
really gone because of you!” I exclaimed. It was you Gallia the entire time. If
you had just let me save him.” I said. Frostwing made a worried face at me. She
may have been right but there’s no reason not to save a friend. We were back in
the present and there were no time orb’s left in existence. We zapped our way
back into my bedroom. “We failed
at both our chances to save them.” I said. “One thing I
want you to know Wilbert. You can never change what’s happened in your past.
You can only look forward to your future.” Gallia said. I sat on my bed sobbing
quietly. “Leave
Gallia. I need some alone time. Frostwing that means you too.” I said. Gallia
and Frostwing remained outside the shack. I couldn’t believe what Gallia had
done. Maybe her words are true. Maybe I couldn’t change the past. But I really
did need to look forward to my future. I opened the door of my new shack and
walked outside. “I’m sorry
for what I said to you Gallia. There really was no way to save him. You can’t
just travel back in time and fix your problems. You can’t pick up the things
that you have already left behind.” I exclaimed. “Thanks for
understanding Wilbert. No offense taken.” Gallia said. “Does this
mean we can be together still?” I asked. “It’s not
like experiencing anything different from what I have. I could have saved my
mother’s life. We didn’t make it to the flower quick enough.” Said Gallia. “True. Let’s
continue our adventures together and look forward to the future.” I said.
That’s when my communication orb rang. It was king Hydro. “Solder’s
are entering our kingdom and we do not know where they are coming from. They
are armed with swords, crossbows, spears, and all sorts of other weapons. We
need you to save our kingdom again. Or at least tell us what’s going on.” King
Hydro exclaimed. “Told you
that our adventure would continue.” I told Gallia To be
continued....................... Next read
