Thread: The Witch's Apprentices [HimekoxMyHappyWorld]

It's been five days since they left the last village they had stayed in, however they were close to the village that was on their map. Hey sis? Hotaru Kisaragi twitched her ears as she looked over to the other girl next to her, her sister Misaru Kisaragi . Misaru looked over to her sister and tilted her head. What's up Hotaru? She asked as her voice showed a hint of curiosity in it. It's getting dark out right now and we need to get into town before the sun goes down and we won't be able to really see where we're going unless we wanna draw attention to ourselves from my light. Who knows what could be lurking out here in this forest and we haven't really gotten any sleep since we left the last village. Dalfiren isn't too far away judging by the map, just a few miles away. Lets pick up the pace and hurry there please. Hotaru replied as she began running with her small dragon, Kaosu following behind. Sighing to herself Misaru started running after her sister. It didn't take them long to reach the village once they started running and was soon at the entrance to Dalfiren. Smiling softly Hotaru held out her hand to Misaru, which she took her sister's hand and they walked into the village. Dalfiren was a decent sized village but was having issues with monsters as of late. Some demons who went berserk and started attacking the villagers and stealing their crops and livestock. As they entered the town a older man walked up to them as he looked them over carefully. You must me Hotaru and her sister Misaru. I thank you for coming here to help us with our crisis. He said as he nodded at them. We got here as fast as we could sir. Misaru replied as she held her hand out towards the man. And you didn't take your time like most would have. I will have our inn keeper set you both up with one of our rooms for free while you stay here and deal with the monsters. Your payment will come in full once the monsters are dealt with, deal? He asked as he took her hand and shook it firmly. Works for us sir. We're just glad that your village wasn't too far away from Nelfgard or it would have taken us longer to get here. Hotaru said as both her and her sister followed the man to where they'd be staying. As they entered the inn the man looked at the inn keeper and walked over to her. These are the monster hunter's that I've hired to help us with our problem. Set them up with a room while they stay here and make sure they have food too as well please. They will need their rest and strength when they face the monsters. He told her and she nodded, knowing that he would be paying her for whatever they ate and for their room. As you wish my lord. She replied as she bowed her head and walked over to the sisters. I leave them in your care now Naomi. See to their every needs while they stay here. The man said as he turned to the sisters again and bowed before taking his leave. Follow me to your rooms ladies. Naomi said as she led them to their room. As they got to their room Hotaru smiled at Naomi and thanked her. Would it be possible to have a warm bath made for me please? I need to clean up and relax a little from our long walk. She asked as Naomi suddenly blushed a bit and nodded. O-Of course miss! I'll have you a warm bath ready in no time! She replied as she left the two to get the bath ready. Thank you Naomi! Hotaru called out as she smirked slightly before entering their room with her sister. Well Misaru we made it and look at this room we got! Damn it's nice! After my bath wanna get some food? We haven't had a decent meal in three days so we need to eat, relax, and rest some tonight before we begin our hunt tomorrow. The monsters won't come out till the sun starts to set so we have time to look at their books in their library and prepare ourselves for the battle tomorrow night. Hotaru spoke to her sister as she sat her small satchel on the table next to her bed. The satchel was small, but it was a magical one that held all her books, spells, ingredients, cloths, armor, weapons and anything else she needed. Her sister had one like hers but she carried three to stay organized better. You probably should get yourself cleaned up as well Misaru. You can ask for a bath as well and just get the temperature to your liking. I know how much you cannot stand the heat so fixing it up nice and cold shouldn't be too hard for ya sis. We've got a long night ahead of us tomorrow night so lets take care of what we can tonight. Hotaru said softly as she walked over to the window and opened it to let the outside air in. It was spring and the weather was a little chilly but not too too bad for Hotaru. There was a soft knock on the door which brought Hotaru out of her little daze. Come in. She called out and the door opened with Naomi standing there. Your bath is ready miss. I have towels and everything set up for you. I will lead you to the bath if you would please follow me. Naomi said as Hotaru nodded and grabbed some cloths before walking over to inn keeper. Might wanna get a cold bath for my sister here ready as well. Shouldn't be too hard. She cannot stand the warmth so it'll be fine. Hotaru said as she smiled at Naomi, again causing the woman to blush as she followed her out the door. V-Very well miss. I will have it ready for her soon and I will come and get her when it's ready. Naomi replied and lead Hotaru to the bath house. Thank you very much Naomi. We appreciate this, really we do. Hotaru said as she followed Naomi to the bath house. Hotaru had a way with the ladies and so did Misaru. They didn't care for men much at all, but women they were highly attracted to. Once they got there she opened the room to her bath and bowed before Naomi. Thank you again for setting this up for me. She said and Naomi nodded. You're more than welcome. I wish I could do more for you and your sister, was it? She asked and Hotaru knew the question would pop up eventually. Misaru is my half sister, but she is my sister non the less. Hotaru blushed slightly, which in return caused Naomi to turn a deep red. I-I'm sorry if that came out as rude! Naomi apologized causing Hotaru to giggle. Don't worry about it. We get that a lot because of how much different from one another we are. But don't worry about it. You wasn't rude at all. Hotaru assured her as Naomi bowed again before her. Okay then. Umm.. I'll go ahead and get your sister's bath ready for her now. Please relax and enjoy your bath. Naomi said as she bowed again before closing the door and taking her leave. Hotaru got undressed and slowly got into the bath. A soft moan escaped her throat as she entered the water. Ahhh... So good. Hotaru said softly to herself as she laid in the water and let the temperature start to rise a bit more from her own body heat. She liked a nice a scolding hot bath, it always helped her body feel better. The temperature how it was now almost brought Hotaru into an orgasm. Water weakens her and makes her more vulnerable than anything, but she has to keep herself away from danger for a few hours after her baths to prevent being killed or taken advantage of. Her sister did not share this weakness with her, which for that she was thankful for. Sighing to herself she washed herself off and continued to enjoy the water. Meanwhile Misaru got her cloths together as she waited for Naomi to return for her. Which she didn't have to wait too much longer seeing as there was another knock on the door. Your bath is ready as requested of your sister. Naomi called out to Misaru. Smiling softly to herself as she gathered her cloths and opened the door. I shall follow you now Naomi. Misaru said as she closed and locked the door. She made sure to close and lock the window before leaving to make sure that nothing of theirs got stolen. She followed Naomi to her room, which was next to her sister's room as Naomi explained to her. She led her into the room before bowing and leaving Misaru there, closing the door behind her. S-Sis you there? Naomi said she made sure to get a room connected to yours. Misaru said as she slowly started undressing. Yeah I'm here sis. Though I don't think you'd wanna step in here since it's nice and hot in here. Hotaru replied with a soft purr in her voice. Hehehe, yeah I don't think I'll be stepping a foot in there. Sorry but you know I cannot stand the heat. Misaru giggled as she put a foot into water to check its temperature. Not cold enough... I can easily fix that though so no big deal. She said to herself as she leaned down and placed a finger ontop of the water and began turning the temperature down drastically, almost turning it into ice. Much better now. She said happily as she fully got into the now ice cold water. Both of them spent time in their separate baths as they talked to each other for a bit. Discussing their plans for tomorrow and making sure their battle plans worked out well. After they finished they dried off, got dressed, and left the bath house to go back to their room. Well that was very refreshing. Now to get something to eat then we will sleep. Sound good to you Misaru? Hotaru looked at her sister as she smiled gently. Works for me. I'm simply famished right now sis. Misaru replied softly as she grabbed her older sister's hand and walked into their room together. I'll go get us some food ordered and then I will return, sound good? Hotaru asked and watched her sister nod. I won't be gone long. I promise. Hotaru said as she left the room leaving Misaru by herself. While Hotaru was gone getting food she flopped down on her bed and began staring at the ceiling thinking back on when they were kids growing up together. Hotaru was older than her by a few years, but wasn't as adept in magic like she was. Hotaru being a pure elf had her limits in many cases, but for Misaru it was different. Misaru's mother was a dragon who captured the heart of Hotaru's father and ended up remarrying to her mother. Her mother was so kind and caring, but very strict when it came to both of their training. The training was hard on both of them but they managed it together. They left their home in search of getting stronger and learning all about magic that they could so that one day when they did have children they could pass it down to them. Though with their tastes in only women it would be hard for them to have children. But somehow they'd manage it. They've heard of a very powerful witch as they traveled from town to town and village to village and it inspired them to hopefully someday meet her. They say she's very good at what she does and her potions are always top of the line. However from what many have said she specializes in love potions and adult pleasure potions. They're not new to sex, but it did get them curious about the whole ordeal. Magic is magic to them and they knew it came in all forms. But they wanted to also see if the witch could help them in search of finding a perfect mate. Blushing slightly to herself she didn't even realize she was lost in her daydream till the door opened and Hotaru was there with Naomi and their food. What's got you all blushing for sis? Hotaru asked as the food was placed down on the table. Uh... Ummm... Nothing sis! Misaru replied as her face turned a darker red. Ummm... Okay then. Well anyways, I got us some food and Naomi here even made us some dessert! The food looks AND smells amazing! Come sister let us eat together! Hotaru said happily as Naomi finished setting the food down for them before taking her leave once more. As they ate they talked about their past together and enjoyed hearing about how their futures both might end up if they ever did have children. It was their normal talk that they had when they were in a new town or village. But they enjoyed their time together, it was always their way of relaxing and winding down. After they ate Hotaru yawned loudly and headed over to her bed, blowing out the candles so that it was dark in their room. I'm beat sis. Lets get some rest and get to work in the morning, mkay? Hotaru said as she laid down and got under the covers. Yes dear sister, let us get our rest for tomorrow will be a big and eventful day. Misaru replied as she too went to her bed, but not getting under the covers as they both passed out. Birds could be heard as the sun started to rise higher into the sky. Hotaru's ears twitched as the sunlight came into the room the the window and shown brightly down on her. Nnn... Hotaru moaned as she rubbed her eyes and opened them slowly. Morning already...? Nnn... And here I was having an interesting dream... She grunted and then rolled over to hearing a small giggling sound. Oh? And what was your dream about there dear sister? Misaru chirped at her sister as her small tail swayed from side to side. Well good morning to you too Misa-Chan... Looks like you're in a good mood. Might wanna conceal your tail before we leave our room. Don't wanna run into any of them disgusting little dragon slayers, now do we? She said with a chuckle as she got out of bed. Yeah I know Hotaru, I just like showing my other half from time to time when I'm safe around you or others of our kind. I just hate hiding my other half sis and you know it... Misaru said as her ears lowered slightly. I know sis... People just don't understand how dragons are like we do... Hotaru sighed as she got dressed and gathered her pouch. I know Hota... But I hope someday I will be allowed to be who I am and not have to live in fear of getting slain... Misaru spoke quietly now as her ears lowered more. Sighing Hotaru walked over to her sister and held her closely in her arms. Shh... Things will get better Misa-Chan we just gotta endure and fight it together. So far the people here haven't questioned your horns and if they do we can do like we always do and say that it's just for decoration or something. Mkay? Now! Lets get ready to head to the library! I hear they've got some good books there for us to read and maybe afterwards we can ask the villagers what sort of monsters we will be dealing with, sound good? Hotaru smiled as her sister nodded and gathered her pouches as well and they both left their room, locking the door behind them as they made their way to the library. They spent hours in the library researching all the spells and incantations they could find in the books the village had to offer. A lot of which they already knew, but they did learn some new spells. Once they finished they thanked the librarian and left to start asking the villagers questions about the monsters. Several of the villagers stated that it was a mixture of trolls and ogres working together, which was very rare in many cases. The sun was starting to set and they needed to get their armor on before they went for battle. Kaosu stayed guard while they changed into their battle armor and readied themselves for a war on the monsters. The villagers were told to stay in their houses while they took care of the monsters in the forest, mainly to keep Misaru's other half a secret and to make sure no innocents got caught up in this battle. Staying hidden in the trees Hotaru and Kaosu watched the trolls and ogres talk amongst one another. Looking over to Misaru she nodded as her body ignited and Kaosu got bigger, her flames would not hurt nature around them, but it would hurt the monsters in the area. Misaru's body became encased in solid ice to counteract the flames her sister was calling upon. The trolls and ogres didn't know what hit them till the elements were waging war against them. The forest was unharmed but they weren't as the fires of hell and the frozen ice of the north claimed the lives of all the monsters that lived in the forest. After the battle Hotaru cooled herself down and calmed the waging flames within her as her sister retracted the iced armor she encased herself in to protect her from her sisters flames. Well the villagers will be safe now. Ain't that right Kaosu? Hotaru said cheerfully as she held out her hand to her dragon which went back to his original small form and wrapped himself around her arm and nodded. You know you coulda gone easy with your hell fire sis. I had to encase myself with more layers of ice just to keep myself safe! Misaru said as she puffed out her cheeks. I can't help it sis. I am who I am. My fire is apart of me as the ice is to you. My flames have been growing stronger the more I learn but don't worry, I did make sure you didn't get hurt so don't worry sis. Now, lets get our forms back to normal before we leave here and then inform the one who hired us that the job is done. Mkay? Hotaru said with a soft smile as Misaru nodded and both slowly worked their ways on changing back to their normal forms as they then left the forest to inform the people that their village was now safe from harm. They was welcomed back as heroes and was welcomed to stay as long as they liked. Little did they know that the witch they had been seeking would soon be within reach and soon their paths would cross, but who knows just what would happen to the sisters and with the witch. Only the days ahead would be able to tell.
