Rainy Hill, ANITA HORVAT [read me like a book .TXT] 📗

knew. The storm from the wall made noise. A loud impossible noise. And they all flew on the storm clouds straight to Rainy Hill...Rainy saw Buckley holding on the dark cloud, Tiraft and David were on the lighting and Tiraft was driving the lighting like a skateboard. Fantastic! Rainy listened to her heart, the adventure was here. The battle also. Is she ready to save everybody? Is she ready to be a Rain Master like her grandmother Tiza was? Is she? Rainy didn't know the answer. She felt strong. She felt perfect. She felt ready. And that was enough.
Tommorow is here. It came with clouds. With fear.
The witches were dancing on Rainy Hill, the hill covered with dark flowers and destroyed trees. Silent was here and terror. Many witches were here too like on Halloween. Pumpinks were put on the trees and they were glowing on the faces. Moon was here showing the bridge to farewell. Moonlight. They all smiled as they saw Rainy.
-The girl Rainy is here. The night and Tiraft, Astrider are in the cage. Broken. Looking down. Rainy has lost all her strenght.-the witches on the hill whispered.
-Astrider!-cried Rainy.-Astrider! Where are you? Mother?!
-Rainy!-Astrider said silently.-All is lost! I saw the fire in the town. Witches won. They will destroy the Taketown. All is lost! You are Rain Master but it is too late run for your life. Only you could call the Purge if you belive in your power! Belive! If it is too late...Go! Left us!
Rainy saw Astrider and her mother in a silver cage under a big grey tree with chains.
-SHUT UP!-said the witch Gardenia.-My sister and I are ladies here. Hatshadows fly and bring fire to the town! Destroy!!!! All!!!! GO!!!
Rainy nodded to Buckley.
Buckley used his cell phone and put the music very loud and shone the light on the tall witch. The witches put strong resist.
The cold wind blew Buckleya down the hill, but he grabbed the brach of the grey tree and saved himself. He took out the spare key from his father's house gate that opened everything and went to the cage with Astrider and Rainy's mother.
Tiraft told his story to the witches but they didn't belive him.-Traitor, we know that you wanted to destroy us. Revenge is ours! You blame the bird, shame!
Witches called for rain but the storm didin't come. The Hatshadow was just a shadow and they jelled.-Traitor is guilty! Get rid of him he is the Rain Master!
Hundreds of witches came to Tiraft but he was standing strong.-Rainy, do it! You must do it! Call for rain!!!!
Astrider was far away to help her but the look on him helped her to concentrate, and Tiraft was held chained like David.
Rainy had put her hands together. -Rainy is my name! Rain will be. Purge the evil!!! Rain. Rain. Rain. I call rain in the name of the Rain Master! Me!
Nothing happened.
-Nothing!-Gardenia smiled.-Punish her!
Tiraft put his branch in Gardena crying.-Sorry, but you are wrong, my love. I can't do this by myself! You will go with me to Downworld...Goodbye Astrider, Rainy...Goodbye...
Light shone. Rain came...
And the witches disappeared.

Two weeks later...

Astrider was free and Mr. Tress didn't give history test on that Friday.
The girl Rainy Hill was a hero- she fought and won as a Rain Master against the witches. Astrider became her new magic teacher and he said Buckley had some powers in him, but Buckley and his dog Flavio just watched Rainy as she was becoming the biggest competitor the Rain Master on the coming Rain Festival in the spring...She was still practising when she get the new postcard from father from Egypt:-Coming to see you, darling daughter, love you!
And Rainy knew the magic. The best magic, magic to love and dream. She was lost in that and she was gladness and magic powers on the autumn rain...She was the Rain Master...Surely.
