Genie sat on a grassy hill overlooking the forest surrounding the Cult, taking in the sun. She wanted a little time alone, after all the people who had picked up her lamp recently and all the wishes she's granted lately. She was tired but knew she wouldn't fall asleep. She gave a sigh and rested her head on her knees, her long and thick black hair curling behind her on the grass.
A breeze fluttered by and she felt a new presence; a familiar one. "Why don't you just sleep? It's honestly not that big of a deal you dumbass." Genie sighed again. "Hello Kork. Can I help you?" The dark genie huffed a laugh and floated over to the girl. "Yeah. I need something from you, Mystic. Your Core."
Suddenly Genie found her immobilized, flattened against the ground as her core magic was being forcefully pulled out of her. A scream died in her throat as agony ripped through her. One thought pushed through her throbbing head; help.

Kork was busy with his work, forcing Genie's magic core out of her, and did not realize the presence of another being on the hill with him. It was too late, he was flung near the edge of the cliff by the blast, a large injury on his midsection. He used his own magic to begin healing it, but even that took time.
Genie all the while was laying on her back, paralyzed with her changing eyes wide. A sweat broke out in her skin and her breath was caught in her throat. A ball of blue and purple light was floating above her chest; her core magic.
Kork had to get to it, he couldn't let it get back into Genie. He stood up on wobbly legs before deciding to wisp his legs and float. He made a move back to Genie, trying to get to the light

Kork narrowed his eyes at the woman. He was this close and he wasn't about to give up. "I am Kork, Genie Servant to Terrani. And I am here for my friend's Core. Now if you could kindly leave." He spoke, his eyes darkening and the air around him becoming heavier.

Kork took to full wisp, dodging the attacks. "You understand nothing. I am not the enemy. I am just the puppet of the enemy. You can't touch him through me." He spoke, his form half solidifying. "I did not choose to hurt her. Commands are commands and wishes are wishes. I cannot break contract." His voice hardened. He moved closer, his presence pulling the ball towards him. Core's were attracted to Genie's no matter who, and the current owner of the core was unresponsive so the ball of magic was pulled to the closest responsive Genie

Kork let out a growl and disappeared in a red light. He could tell his master he was stopped but will get the core later. Meanwhile Genie's body began convulsing as her core was forced back into her. Soon after the ball of light and magic was back inside its host, she lay there, deep breaths coming from her. Her eyes closed and she rested her head on the grass

Genie had her eyes closed a total of ten minutes before her breathing evened out and she slowly blinked into reality. She took a minute to lay there before she sat up, a hand to her pounding head and another to her aching chest. She gave a glance at the area around her when she noticed the other cultist. "What happened?" She whispered

Genie groaned and rubbed her head. "Kork? I don't know why he does this. He messes with me, says we're friends, is nice sometimes, and then he blushes when I call him out. Why?" Genie shook her head softly. "You okay? Need a wish granted? I have no current master so I'm free to grant a free wish." Genie offered, wondering how much trouble this person went through for her.

"Crush? Kork? By Allah no way." Genie's heart gave a throb at the thought. She shook her head. "It's Mystic, actually, but everyone calls me Genie. And I've heard a whisp of your name." She said, glancing at Jeu. "Core, every Genie has one, it's the source of their magic. It's what helps us grant wishes. If it's removed we become human. It almost feels like death when being removed and takes a while to recover after removal. And I know why Terrani wants it. He has a genie, Kork, but getting another Genie's core absorbed into him will turn him himself into a genie, and a powerful one." Genie took a deep breath

Genie shook her head. "He wants two, so he'll be 'the most powerful Genie in the world'. But two Cores will kill him. He doesn't know that. He needs Kork to get my Core." She sighed and rubbed the see through fabric covering the bottom layer of her blue pants. "Go to a higher official if you want. Kork knows what he's doing, let him take my core." She shook her head. "I give up. Kork knows how to get out of this contract, he just won't. So I give up."

Genie gave a chuckle. "Well I don't want you to regret saving me. I'll fight him. I can wait somewhere if you go tell someone. I'm not the most social person." Genie gave a smile before it wiped off her face, a buzzing feeling in her stomach. "He'll be back soon. Really soon. We have ten maybe fifteen minutes. You can leave if you want, he had me down last time because of surprise. I can fight this time." Genie stood up and took half wisp, her legs disappearing

Genie gave a small smile and raised her arms. A small ball of blue energy formed between her hands. "Here." She sent it towards Jeu, watching the ball of light and magic absorb into Jeu. "That's an indirect wish." She smiled. "So do have a plan with Kork or are we winging it? Because winging it could also be a formidable plan if we did it just right." Genie put her hands back down.

Genie nodded. "So fashionably winging it. I like it." She took a deep breath. A second passed before the smile on her face disappeared and a tingling feeling curled in her stomach. "He's here." She said. Her face set in a grave expression. "He's still not to full strength. Thank you for that, by the way. But hes angry." She glanced at Jeu. "Genie's can read each other's emotions if they're close." She explained
