MARSEL: GİRİŞ:
Gecenin karanlığı Karen şehrini ışıl ışıl parıldatırken benim evim olan Marsel ormanını karanlık hapsetmiş sadece ay ışığıyla ve ateş böceklerinin ışığıyla parlıyordu. Her yerde uçan muhafızlardan saklanarak büyük şatafatlı köprünün altına atladım. Karanlık iyice bastırmış tüm o güzel gökyüzünün ışıltısı Karen nehrinin dalgalanan suyuna yansımış içimi bir nebze de olsa huzur vermişti.
Büyük çam ağaçlarının arasından geçerek Marsel ormanının derinliklerindeki evime gittim. Uzaktan görünen yanmış harabe evime koşarak bahçesinden içeriğe girdim. Karşımda bana doğru bakan bir çift mavi göz ile karşılaştım. Bu mavi gözler daha önceden birkaç kez öldürmeye teşebbüste bulunduğum büyük prensin gözlerinden başkası değildi. Burada kaldığımı bulduğuna göre tüm muhafızlar burada karanlık ormanın içinde bir yerlerde pusudaydı. Gayet rahat bir tavır takınarak ona doğru yürüdüm. Prens sorgularcasına tek kaşını kaldırarak evimi gösterdi.
‘’Demek kraliyet düşmanı Yuan’ın küçük kızı sensin… Ablana hiç benzemiyorsun. Aslında seninle bir derdim yoktu hatta canını bile bağışlamıştım. Benim sayemde hayattasın. Ama bakıyorum da tam bir aptalmışım. Anası ne olsun ki kızı öyle olsun. Benden pek haz etmediğini hatta öldürmek için her şeyi yapacağını biliyorum. Yani duygularımız karşılıklı… Ama kötü haber… hahahahahhh. Sen beni öldürme şansını büyük bir arayla kaybettin küçük kız…’’
Gülerken baya eğlenen prens eliyle öldürün işareti vererek birkaç muhafızı uçarak kolumdan tuttu. Sadece kin ve öfkeyle prense baktım.
‘’Sen ve o lanet krallığınız batsın. SEN GÖRDÜĞÜM EN BÜYÜK KORKAKSIN! Beni bile yenemeyecek kadar güçsüz olduğun için muhafızlarına güveniyorsun. Annemi öldürüp, tüm ailemi katlettiniz. Bir de pişkin pişkin beni bağışladığını mı söylüyorsun! Asıl sen büyük arayla beni öldürme şansını kaybettin. Kendi ayaklarınla ölüme hoş geldin prens!!’’
Takındığım tavır prensi hiç etkilemişe benzemiyordu. Hatta eliyle muhafızlarına hızlanın işareti verip arkasına döndü. Bu sırada kraliyet muhafızına savurduğum tekmeyle kenara fırlattım. Diğer muhafızın bacağına sapladığım kılıcımın keskinliğiyle yere düşmesini sağladım. Ardından kafasını kırmamla prense doğru uçtum. Prensin önüne geçtiğimde kılıcımı ona doğru uzatarak savunmaya geçtim.
‘’Bak küçük kız hala şansın varken bırak savaşmayı yoksa sende…’’
Daha lafını bile bitiremeden Prense doğru zıpladım ve kılıcımı ona sapladım. Gözlerine büyük bir öfkeyle bakarak:
‘’Artık ölmek umurumda değil. Ama yanımda senide götürmekten büyük onur duydum büyük prens!’’
Prense sapladığım kılıcı daha da derine sapladım. Ağzından çıkan kan yüzümü boyarken arkamdan bana da saplanan kılıçla yere düştüm. Tüm muhafızlar etrafımızda toplanırken prens de yere yanıma düştü. Onun suratına bakarken bana savrulan kılıçlar kolumu ve bacağımı kesiyordu. Acıyan vücudumun tüm parçalarına rağmen prense doğru elimi uzattım. Muhafızlar prensi kaldırmaya çalışıyorlarken sapladığım kılıcı tüm gücümle geri çektim. Prensin vücudundan çıkan kanlı kılıcım yere düşerken prensin gözleri kapandı. Herkes onunla ilgilenirken vücudum yeterince kan kaybetmiş artık intikamımı almış onurlu bir şekilde ölüyordum. Tüm muhafızlar prensi götürürlerken ormanın içinde tek başıma ölüyordum. Etraf artık çok sessizleşmişti. Yüzümdeki gülümsememi hiç silmemiştim. Ruhum artık istediği gibi huzura kavuşuyordu. Gözlerim artık bana çok ağır gelmeye başlamıştı.
Ben Yuan’ın kızı Elisa ailemin intikamını sonunda aldım….
|ONC 2025|
When Freddie reads of hauntings at Lady Evelyn-Smoothwater Provincial Park in Ontario due to a mysterious lullaby, "Lucilla", he drags the gang on an unexpected canoe trip, where he's determined to prove that not only do ghosts exist but also that not every villain hides under a mask.
***
Freddie, Daphne, Velma, and Shaggy are leaving soon for college, which causes them to fear that their mystery-solving days are over. As the gang leader, Fred takes matters into his own hands and tracks down one last mystery for them to solve--the legend of the Ghost of Ontario in the Lady Evelyn-Smoothwater Provincial Park.
While canoeing on Lake Anima Nipissing to search for clues, the gang runs into an amnesic hermit who claims he's only ten winters old and has never heard of the Ghost of Ontario; yet, whenever he's around, strange things happen, such as unexpected storms and angry spirits. It looks like he may be the gang's biggest mystery yet, but is this mysterious hermit a masked villain or something more? And what is this "Lucilla" that everyone in the provincial park keeps discussing?
It's up to the gang, Scooby, and one brave young man to solve this mystery--for all of Ontario.
