Feral Confessions – Adrianna And The Alpha

What kind of competition was this where the participants were subjected to this kind of survival apart from battling against each other? Dmitri's blood drained from his face and he slumped in his chair. Howard could understand his anxiety. He offered him his packet of chips and asked Liam and Fleur to sit next to him. 

Inside the desert Adrianna was sheltered against the hot sand particles during the storm that were bouncing around the rocks around her. She could see those animals that had crept under the rocks. They looked disturbed. She mentally communicated to them to calm down. She was only protecting all of them. There were desert spiders, lizards and a few ground squirrels. They all looked at her with anticipation and appreciation. They waited calmly. 

Suddenly there was a huge roar and one of the rocks it sounded as if one of the rocks on the side had started breaking from the outside. Adrianna managed to hold it, but the rock gave away and flew in bit and pieces in along with the storm. All the sand that was flowing out started filling the small shelter she had created. The animals started moving behind her. Adrianna shielded her face with her arms and then on a quick thought, removed her robe and tied it around her face. She kept her hands on her face and looked in front to find another boulder but what she saw was shocking. 

The sand storm that had risen had taken the shape of Lile's face right in the center. Adrianna looked up at the height of thirty feet where Lile's face was formed. She was stunned. So Lile created the dust storm! Adrianna was wondering the power wizards and witches had. She didn't know anything about these powers and realized she had to learn so much. She had to defend herself with the limited spells she knew and utilize her inner strength just as Dmitri said. The only limitation about her magic was that she had to use the energy of the surroundings. Being a werewolf, the heat of the dessert was suffocating so she had to escape from there as soon as possible. She looked up at Lile and took her wand out. Lile noticed her and started laughing. Her laughter boomed in that place. "Do you think your little wand can stop me?" 

Lile looked towards her left. A huge bulk of sand lifted and started blowing towards Adrianna. However, she was ready this time. She pointed her wand towards it and said, "Still!" the moment all the sand that was blowing froze in its place. Adrianna looked at the right of Lile and once again repeated the spell. The sand storm stopped as Lile's face loomed large over her. 

Adrianna pointed her wand, but as soon as she did that, the bulk of sand with which Lile's face was formed, came crashing down. She could hear a gush of air blown over her body with swoosh. She toppled a little towards the back. Adrianna stepped out of the shelter and as soon as she had stepped out, the rocks around her exploded into thousands of pieces. Adrianna crouched down to minimize the chances of getting hit by the rock pieces that were flying around her. She cast a spell around her to encase herself in a bubble, which bounced off all the small boulders. 

Furious, she got up and pointed her wand towards Lile to throw a white leash but Lile had reacted and arrested her spell. 

Few more spells were cast in which Lile was suffering the blow but in the process the desert became even hotter. It became unbearable for Adrianna. Perhaps Lile knew that being a werewolf. If she stayed in the desert for a long time, she would start sweating and then perhaps start getting heat stroke. Was it her strategy to keep her longer there? The spells that she was casting were just too elementary after the sand storm one. 

Her calculations were correct when Lile pointed her wand at the sun, drew a small amount of energy from there and directed it towards Adrianna. "Imetiu Solis!" Lile chanted and a glare of sunray hot enough to burn a human was directed towards her. Adrianna was prepared for it. She had arrested it with her wand and directed it towards the sand dune. The sunray fell on it and the area burnt creating a large inside. Adrianna, looked around to find a sand dune. She spotted one and shifted it between them to get out of her sight but she knew that it would be temporary. 

Taking advantage of the time, Adrianna ran to the opposite side. She had to get out of that quadrant and go to a different terrain, whatever that would be. She ran at her best speed to reach the periphery, but she wasn't finding any. She ended up running under sun getting all the more dehydrated. It was endless. How could this be?

She was desperate now. She looked back and found Lile coming after her chanting more spells. Adrianna shielded herself and then on an impulse created a portal thinking of a thick forest terrain next. The shiny gold portal with wolf inscriptions was created and it beamed brilliantly under sun. 

The audience was mesmerized at the portal. It was one of a kind and only person had ever created that portal in the entire wizard kingdom, and that was Vikra. Many in the audience started comparing her powers to Vikra. 

Isidorus was watching the entire show along with other ministry people. They were allotted special cabins to sit and watch. 

A holiday was declared across the wizard kingdom for everyone to watch the competition between the two most powerful wizards of the kingdom. When he saw her creating the portal, he smiled thoroughly satisfied at her display of power. Ministry people who were against her crowning, gasped when they saw her creating that portal. 

Meanwhile, Adrianna looked behind at Lile who was running at a great speed towards her trying to cast whatever spells that came to her mind. She smiled and walked through her portal into the different terrain. As soon as she walked through, she burned the portal behind her because her portal never vanished like other portal. It stayed and Professor Ziu had burnt it. 

When Lile saw that the portal was melting, she ran faster with whatever strength she had but couldn't match the speed at which the portal was melting. It was important for her to enter the portal in order to catch her where she had entered. She knew that being a werewolf, Adrianna wouldn't be able to bear the heat of the desert. When they entered the desert, Lile, on a quick thinking planned her strategy out. However, Adrianna must have figured it out sooner and hence she was escaping. 

Lile's mind was working overtime as to how to stop Adrianna, but Adrianna deflected every spell that she was casting. She was least expecting her create the portal and when she did, all she could think of was to run to it. She must be at least two hundred yards away when she saw the portal melting in that fire and becoming smaller. She sucked herself in a vortex and managed to jump inside the last of the diminishing portal, although hot metal burned her skin at several places. 

What she found herself into was shocking. Adrianna sure knew how to take her revenge.
