"And... I wanted to know who you were... And why you were in this part of the for-" he cut off as he looked me in the eyes for the first time.
I sighed, "it is okay. I have no intentions of harming you..." I told him.
He looked at me, staying silent and swallowing.
"So, uh, as I was saying," his hand went into his robes, clutching something, "Why are you in this part of the forest? Not many people ever come through and I decided to investigate."
"I ran. In any direction I found suit. Now, I need to be on my way before too many mobs spawn," I tried to get away from the strange guy. He wasn't normal. I could feel something different around him, and I did not like it.
"But, don't the mobs usually not bother you? And besides, with who you are, you could fight off the ones who do oppose you." Fallen countered. Damn. There was no getting away from this guy was there?
"Usually. But I would rather not take chances. They sometimes... Forget," I said, truth be told, they were all after me.
"Reasonable..." He started talking to himself.
"But.. Wouldn't you..." He smiled, you could see that he had a plan forming in his head.
"Well, I need to get going..." I said and started walking off in the other direction.
"Let me come with you. I could help." He asked, catching up and walking beside me.
"No."
"But, I could help."
"I said no."
"I'll follow you anyways."
I turned and pulled out my sword. In the instant I had to attack, he pulled his hand out of his robes and pulled out a stick.
Suddenly I was in the air, suspended by what looked like lightning around my wrists and connecting to the air.
"So. A wizard eh? That is what I felt..."
"Yes. Now, you could use my help. You just about walked into a wolf trap," he pointed to the ground with his left hand to show a patch of dead leaves with a small piece of metal showing.
I thought it over.
"Okay. Okay. You can come, but be warned, there are people that want me and whoever would be with me dead."
He smiled and dropped the lightning. I landed on my feet and rubbed my wrists.
"So, where are we going now?" He asked, his face now serious.
"I do not know..."
Sorry these first few chapters have been spread out and short, these have been the hardest to type/get ideas for, but, soon they will be longer.
