THE SORCERER'S APPRENTICE RAP

I am the Master Sorcerer Balthazar Blake,
If I was a female I'd be burned at the stake,
But if I go into battle let it be understood,
My magical powers are only used for the highest good

My mission is to stop all ill meaning shenanigans,
and save the world from the evil Morganians,
In the beginning, there were The Three,
Merlin's apprentices and now there's only me,
One was a mighty sorceress, named veronica,
Forever on my heart is engraved her moniker,
The other was Horvath, my friend turned foe -
She chose me over him and he could never let it go -
He betrayed Merlin and became Morgana's boy
Having Killed our master they then had their evil ploy;
The treacherous pair planned to cast their darkest spell
One called 'The Rising' that would cause merry hell!

Vernonica my loved one should have been my wife,
But by merging with Morgana and saving my life,
She had to be locked in the grimhold doll,
To contain all the evil in A magic prison hold.
Soon the traitor Horvath ( that dark game player ),
Had been locked down good and proper, inside another layer.

And that was the beginning of my thousand year mission,
And every passing day I felt the weight of my position,
As Merlin lay dying, in my hand he placed some bling,
Saying only his descendent could wear his dragon ring,
So The Sorcerer's Apprentice I had no choice but to find -
It really didn't help at all that i could read minds -
I travelled the world, searching high and low,
But by the 1000th year I had to go with the flow,
As soon as I stopped looking, then he came to me
(There's a lesson in there somewhere if you're following me)

A young boy from New York called Dave did fit the dragon ring,
But he ignored my instructions not to touch anything,
He just had to explore my funky magic shop,
then to the floor the grimhold doll went for the drop
And before 'abracabra' could have left your lips
Horvath was released, and up to his old tricks.

His killing kind of magic never was that appealing,
So I shot Dave that look and pinned Horvath to the ceiling,
With plasma bolts and swords we battled in turn
But it ended badly with both trapped inside an urn -
A ten year sentence when i'd just found the key -
But Dave couldn't save the world without lessons from me!
I told him to take the Grimhold and I'd see him in a while,
Little did I know he would go into denial!

Ten. years. later. and I find him beneath
A pack of angry wolves and a set of sharp teeth,
Horvath got there first and tried to kill the physics nerd,
But I rescued Dave on my giant metal bird.

From magic Dave distanced (so he could forget),
Playing with giant tesla coils and physical laws, and yet...
When I put it to him that the law of vibration
Was the basis of magic, it shook his foundation,
And when he felt in his own hands, the throbbing plasma energy
he had to accept the truth of the science and magic synergy.

With the reluctant apprentice the fun then began,
He learned pretty fast from this ancient magic man,
Our adventures began with chinese dragons and lanterns,
Then we headed to the streets in my rolls royce phantom,
beneath Horvath's radar we hit Dave's laboratory,
We need a place to work for our magical exploratory,
I cast the Merlin circle and nearly blew Dave's mind,
But I know my stuff and there's no messing with my kind,

He needed to know there was no room for slack
Because once you enter there is No. Going. Back.

To channel the current I made him wear the pointy shoes,
Plus they look classy, and pointy hat I would not choose,
His levitation was sloppy and his plasma bolts were weak,
I did not tell him his true purpose because I knew he would freak.

His heart wasn't in it and his mind elsewhere,
With a girl named Becky, about all else he couldn't care,
He just wasn't focussed, chasing romantic satisfaction
I shook my pickle in his face and told him 'love is a distraction'

I rescued him from crazy mops and fatal electrocution,
I was at my wits end with him seeing no resolution
I told him that Horvath would take no crap
Once he'd escaped from the Hungarian mirror trap


He needed to know there was no room for slack
Because once you enter there is No. Going. Back.


But after a morphing car chase my own story was rumbled
So Dave got the whole truth and i was truly humbled
Not just save the world, Dave must release my heart,
Only the Prime Merlinian can stop us being apart
Not only was Morgana locked in that nesting doll
But my love vernonica who absorbed her evil soul..


Emboldened by love and because it is in his blood
Dave rose up as hero for the power of good


Horvath and Morgana had begun the spell for The Rising,
And even though I did my best it was Dave who was most surprising
In the final showdown when Morgana was released
That science magic synthesis he successfully unleashed

Even Without the dragon ring his magic was flowing,
His Merlinian supernatural powers kept on growing and growing,
He finished off Morgana, she will not return now ever
Dave had saved the world and released me from forever.


Emboldened by love and because it is in his blood
Dave rose up as hero for the power of good


How did it end for Veronica and me?
Our love was never meant to be
In the 21st century,
But now that she was free,
We could be one, eternally.


The end
