The rain had began falling down as everything around them got darker. Everywhere they turned looked the same as they walked by in the thick, dark forest.
and everything that had began rather well that day ...
Close to the mountains in the north, there were 2 villages divided by a big and thick forest.
The citizens had since long ago made a main road that goes around the forest and connects the two villages together.
In the first village lives Lukas and Alexander was known as the "quiet brothers". They were very much unlike every other boy in their home village as they´d rather be alone and mind their own bussiness. They never exactly got bullied, but people were cautious around them.
One day, their dear grandpa hwo lived in the nearest neighbouring village got ill, and since they boys parents never payed attention to much more than their work, the boys figured that they should go and check on him. Because noone else would do it.
One of the younger boys in their home village hwo acctually had taken a liking to Alexander, had told him that the easiest way to get to the next village was not to follow the main road, but a smaller one that ran through the forest.
Alexander thought this sounded as a good idea, since the main road would take over an hour to walk.
Lukas was being a bit skeptical to the idea, but as usuall, he didn´t spill his thoughts to his younger brother hwo was now in the middle of packing. Besides, he knew Alexander acctually trusted this boy allmost as much as he trusted Lukas ... so there shouldn´t be any reason to doubt him right?
So they began walking through the forest. Though something didn´t feel quite right.
The sun had began fading and dark clouds covered the sky, but by some wierd reason, Lukas felt very warm and sweaty.
"How long time will the walk even take?", wondered Lukas hwo was doubting the dear friends guide lines.
alexander stopped for a sec to take up his pocket watch.
"Well he said it would only take 20 minutes to walk." Lukas could see Alexander looking irritated at the watch." Not 1 ½ hour as we have been now."
He looked up at his brother who, just like himself, had a worried face with the question `what the hell are we doing now then?`.
Suddenly a great rumble came from the sky as the darker clouds had taken over and everything had began to dusk.
"We should continue walking! There shouldn´t be civilization far from here", said Alexander as he continued walking with determinded steps.
Lukas still looked worried and doubting, but it was better to stick together with his brother than to walk on by himself in another direction.
The rain began to fall rather quickly and soon they both were soaked to the bone.
The panic in Lukas mind made him dizzy. he could se his little brother with his red coat in front of him but everything else had began to blur. He was affraid that he would slip on one of the now wet stones in the road and fall and Alexander wouldn´t notice him and leaave him behind.
Thousands of thoughts ran through his head at the same time.
Suddenly Alexander had stopped and Lukas bumbed into him from he even got the chance to ask him what had happened and why he stopped, Alexander was pointing out to the dark distance.
"Over there! Can you see the light?"
"Light?", Lukas said slowly as he tried his best to concentrate at the point where his prother were pointing. Indeed there was a light. He also noticed that the light was moving on it´s own.
"Come, let´s go to it! If there´s a house there maybe we are on the right way!" Alexander said and wasted no time in saying more before he hurried away.
Lukas pulled himself together as good as he could and hurried after.
"Excuuuuuse me!", shouted alexander while running towards the figure holding the lantern, as if he was affraid the person would turn away and disspear if he didn´t notice them as fast as possible.
The man holding the latern was visibly a bit old since his hair had turned all grey, but still looked rather healty and fit. He wore a long black coat that, just like the brothers, was rather drenched.
His face showed a look of great surprise.
"Could you plese tell me how to get to the nearest village?"
"I think we got a bit lost", filled Lukas in, s he tried to gather his strength. His head was throbbing after the running. Was he about to get himself a fever? That wouldn´t be any good, not since he was as wet as now.
"I am sorry boys, but you must have gone terribly wrong. It´s not really far from here to the main road, but from there it will be quite a walk for you ... I don´t really dare letting two nice boys such as youselfs out for that long walk in this weather."
He was thinking a little and hesitation was visible on his face as Alexander looked up to his brother, only to cath him not looking to good.
"Are you allright, brother? You look a bit ill."
" ... I just feel a bit dizzy, but it´s not that bad really."
Alexander put up a hand to his brothers forehead.
"You are burning up! Why didn´t you tell me you have a fever!"
He had a fever? Now that Alexander mentioned it, he did feel rather warm and he did indeed have a headache.
Though he couldn´t give his answer until the old man raised his voice.
"Then boys, I think you should come with me and stay the night since it is rather dark, and you don´t really look too good. Now come along you two."
The man turned around and began walking, leaving Alexander and Lukas no other option than to follow him.
With a sudden turn, they got to a forest clearing with a big black iron gate stod proudly and guarded it´s road. A bit further up was a big castle visible.
"Here I am only a humble servant, you see. My master might seem cold and hard, but believe me he acctually has a heart of gold. I am sure he would let you two stay the night because of the storm."
Lukas could barely believe his eyes. The castle was so big and high and shiny. It must have been pretty beautiful once upon a time, but now you could barely see the facae walls because of the over grown Ivy.
He did his best to keep up with the two others, but right now all he had wanted was just to sit down on the ground and make his head stop hurting.
They got into a big grand hall with white warble walls and deep red satin curtains hanging down to the floor. The floor itself was also mostly of marble, but with some red and black tile plates a bit here and there. There was maids in the hallway taking off their wet coats so they could try and offering some warm milk. The older man, the hed butler as it seems he was, told the woman in an easy but direct tone:
"They need to meet the master first. He would get furious if we let someone in without his knowledge."
The maid nodded understanding and walked away.
The man lead Alexander and Lukas up through the stairs and turned right while getting to the second floor. He walked to the end of the corridor when suddenly stopping at the very last door to knock three times on it´s massive oak-ish shell.
"Come in," said a mans determined voice.
Alexander looked up at Lukas while the man opened the door. The brothers swallowed hard before following the butler in.
The room they now where in was a big study. At every single wall there was an bookshelf filled with books in all different colors and shapes.
There was a sofa big big soft-looking cushions, there was chandeliers hanging from the ceiling with over 20 lighten candles burning.
Then, there was these huge windows with an working desk covered in papers in front of it.
By the window was a shadow.
As Lukas got closer he could see a man standing there. He looked young. Maybe a few years older that Lukas himself.
Lukas thought he looked like a person who had to become an adult too quickly.
The butler madea signal for the boys to stop at the end of a carpet, while he himself walked closer to the working desk and bowed.
"My dear young master, I am sorry for intruding on you while working, but I found these two boys in the forest and thought I had no other choice than to offer them a place under our roof for tonight."
The man pulled the curtains shut before turning to look at the man.
"Are you treating me for a fool!" he shouted. "You have no saying in who is allowed to intrude on my castle."
He took two steps forward away from the window to look at Lukas and alexander. The way he looked at them was cold and absent.
He turned to the butler again.
"Show them the way out of here."
"But Sir! There is a storm out there an..."
"I DO NOT CARE!", he shouted and hit his hand on the table so hard that his cup fell down and broke when landing on the hard wooden floor.
"I am very cross with you right now Richard, we will discuss this when you have showed the boys the door."
Lukas hadn´t noticed how long he had had his hand on Alexanders shoulders to keep himself from falling, but suddenly everything blurred and his legs became jelly. So he fell.
Alexander noticed there was something wrong and just as he turned aroud he managed to take a grip around Lukas and kept him from hitting the ground.
The young master Mattias had noticed something sounded wrong and quickly looked away from his butler to see what was going on.
Both of the boys where sitting down, Alexander had made Lukas lean over him instead of hitting the ground.
Mattias frowned.
"what kind of acting are you trying to pull?"
"A-Acting? Can´t you see that he has finted due to his fever!", Alexander blurted out in irritation.
"Master Mattias..."
"No, don´t start Richard. Let me see for myself if this is a fake or not."
Alexander swallowed as the young master approached him, and suddenly sat down on his haunches next to him.
"Show me his face", he said calmly.
`how wierd for this guy to have calmed down so quickly`,Alexander thought for himself but did as he was told.
He pulled his brothers shoulders so he turned around in his arms.
Lukas was still unconscious but ha his eye brows knotted i a worry-looking frown. He was sweating due to his fever and breathing quickly.
Mattias hesitated a moment before he slided down a hand from his forehead and down his cheek.
Even though the person in front of him very obvious were a boy, and very ill, there was something about him that left Mattias staring at him before he realized that he did.
While he was thinking, he blinked a few times before standing up and taking a few steps back before stopping.
Alexander looked a bit worried at his brother. He really hadn´t been this ill in years, and now he was that in the worst situation.
After the pause Mattias spoke.
"Very well. Due to his condition I´ll let you two stay the night here. Richard please make the pearl suit avialible for them."
Both the butler and Alexander smiled a little at Mattias chage of heart.
"Right away sir!", he said and hurried out.
