~Chapter 13~ Oh, gosh... Cory is resting against the wall, heavily injured, while Amora is playing her lute to try and calm everyone down, and then there's this black aura thing that just vanished with the king's body. I feel like I could've done more, like I could've prevented Cory from being hurt like this. I am the toughest one here, after all... But I failed. I failed my parents, the ones who pushed me to never be afraid of anything. Then.. why am I so afraid right now? I just... I- "Thomas?" Eliza asks as she comes over to my side, "hey, are you ok?" (Honestly Eliza? Not at all, but I couldn't say that). "Y-yeah I'm fine. I'm just worried is all." Suddenly, I grasp my leg in pain, remembering that one of the guards had swiped it with their sword. Eliza noticed I was in pain and gestured to sit down with her for a bit. "Here, drink this." She said as she handed me a crescent-shaped bottle. I shrugged and drank it, and the pain immediately left my leg. "Jee, that worked like magic, heh. Thanks Eliz-" I stop mid-sentence as her head falls on my shoulder. Guess she's asleep, along with everyone here except for Ridge, who seemed to be keeping watch as the rest of us rested. Sleeping sounds pretty good right about now... ------------------ "Hello?" I shouted into the dark void I'm floating in. "Is anybody there?" I try moving around to see if I can find anything, but there's nothing but darkness. All of the sudden, I see a shadowy figure far off in the distance. It sounds like it's... talking? "Uif usvf ljoh ibt sfuvsofe." it says in a high pitched voice. "Hey, uh, could you maybe speak in English?" I ask, fearing for my life. "Uif usvf ljoh ibt sfuvsofe." it says again. It then starts flying towards me as I struggle to move. I don't know what to do, I can't move. I'm stuck here until that thing eats me probably. I ca- "Thomas?" I wake up to Eliza shaking me, with a terribly worried look on her face. Oh thank goodness. It was a dream... I think. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ WOOP THATS REALLY POORLY WRITTEN BUT OK Thomas: me kiddos Eliza: @PeriwinklePenguin11 Amora: @Cora901283 Ridge: @LittleSheepie Raven: Renn: Cory: Edwin: ★・・・・・・★・・・・・・★・・・・・・★・・・・・・★
