Dimension Traveling: Beast Quest
Chapter 2
Disclaimer: I don't own Beast Quest only my own characters
The next morning, after a filling breakfast. Andrew and Tom walked to the edge of the village, Andrew had his pack with everything he had because they would be away for a while, where Andrew offered his hand to Tom, "Take my hand Tom." Tom took the hand that wasn't holding his staff.
Andrew pictured the throne room at King Hugo's palace. He and Tom then disaparated with an audible crack. Tom and Andrew both felt like they were being pushed through a rubber tube before landing feet first in the throne room.
Tom collapsed onto the floor clutching his stomach, "Sorry Tom. I forgot to warn you about that." He quickly gave Tom a potion to ease his quaking stomach before turning to the King and Aduro and bowing, "Your Majesty."
Tom quickly did the same before King Hugo asked, "Who are you? And what do you want?"
"Your Majesty my name is Andrew and this here is Tom, son of Taladen the swift," whispers broke out among the nobles as Andrew continued, "As for what we're we want. The village of Errinel needs help with burning buildings and such. I help as much as I can but even I can't fill up an entire river and I believe that we may be able to help you with your …beastly problems."
"You're a wizard then."-Aduro
"Yes. I don't have the appropriate attire but I'm more comfortable in these clothes."-Andrew
"We should talk in private about such matters. You may leave." Said King Hugo to the nobles before the guards closed the door behind themselves.
They talked at great length about the beasts and initiating Tom to the beasts. Andrew explained some of his knowledge and said that they should start tomorrow to join up all the companions for the quest.
At dinner Andrew and Tom were honoured guests but dinner was broken up when Sir Caldor's page disrupted the dinner with the news that Sir Caldor had perished to Ferno. The king just nodded and said that already had someone to take Sir Caldor's place.
The next morning Tom was given a special sword and shield before being taken down to the stables for storm. While they were down at the stables Andrew remembered he needed to send a message to Errinel. So he told Aduro what he was going to do. Thinking a happy thought he brought his staff down a said, "expecto patronum."
A silvery white Basilisk leapt from the jewel on the staff and awaited the message. Andrew then said," Henry, Tom and I got here safe. There is food being sent to the village as I speak. We are going on a quest for King and we're not sure when we'll be back but we will get back to Errinel at some point. I will send regular messages to inform you of our current location. Goodbye." The patronus slithered of in the direction of the village.
"Right I guess I'll introduce my steed then, "Gogoat let's ride." Gogoat then appeared next to Storm and Andrew got on when Tom got on Storm. Once they had the map Andrew spoke, "Aduro I bid you farewell and don't be a stranger. Gogoat let's ride."
Andrew and Tom rode off out of the city towards the forest of fear.
They reached the forest by mid-afternoon and started to ride through it. They eventually got to a spot where they needed to cut a path. Andrew said that he could use magic to get them out of the way but that Tom should be practising with his sword as Andrew would only be with them for to quests.
When they heard a growling sound ahead Tom froze but Andrew turned to face the forest waiting for the soldiers to burst from the foliage.
A few moments later three soldiers came out and asked, "What is your business in this forest and why are you shielding a poachers pet?"
"I will answer your last question first. This is no poachers pet. You have simply misread the situation. I have a letter from the king himself about both of your questions." At that he pulled a scroll from his robes that the king had given him earlier that day and handed it to the soldier.
After reading it through the soldier said, "Well I must apologise for jumping to conclusions and hope you will forgive me. As for the girl I don't know where she is but that is her wolf so she shouldn't be far away. I bid you farewell and good luck on your quest."
The soldiers left soon after that and the boys followed silver through the woods before he stopped and Elenna landed on the ground in front them. Silver ran up and started licking her face. Once she had fended Silver off, he then ran up to the boys and nuzzled their hands.
"Well if Silver likes you. Then you must be okay." Elenna commented.
"Thankyou. I have a letter from the king for you. Now before you say anything we know you haven't been poaching. This is for a different purpose entirely." Andrew handed her the letter with the kings seal.
Once Elenna had read the letter she said, "So what is this quest and why would you want me because I'm sure there are better archers out there."
"Yes but that is because of the nature of our quest. It isn't common knowledge. Our quest is to hunt down the six beasts that have been enslaved by the evil wizard Malvel. Tom is the true hero hear as I'm only able to join you guys for two quests or twelve individual missions."
Elenna then proceeded to vent her frustrations as to why a river could dry up in one night and by the time she was done night had fallen so they set up camp where they were.
The next morning after breakfast the three left with Tom and Elenna on Storm and Andrew on Gogoat. By noon they had reached Ferno's mountain.
Once they got to the plateau where Ferno lived Andrew cast feather-weight charms on them leaving Storm and Silver where they were. Andrew had explained Ferno's habits to them so they knew that this was required.
They silently made their way up Ferno's back and towards his neck. Tom slipped into the collar around Ferno's neck but the dragon had noticed the movement on its back. Andrew cancelled the feather-weight charms before grabbing Elenna and leaping off its back.
Ferno hadn't seen Tom so while he was edging towards the keyhole, Andrew cast flame freezing charms on Elenna, Storm, Silver and himself. Elenna knowing what he had just done did many more risks than usual.
Tom had managed to get to keyhole and was slowly inserting the key into its hole. He manage to get the full key into the hole and still Ferno hadn't noticed him so while the dragon was still he took his chance pushing as hard as he could against the key turning it in the lock and disapparating the collar.
Just as suddenly the great dragon stopped writhing and attacking the two on the ground. Thanks to the key he got to the ground safely before watching Ferno unblock the river and fly out over the forest to right other wrongs.
When Tom opened the map a smokescreen of Aduro's face appeared and congratulated them on freeing Ferno. Aduro then told Tom about Ferno's scale and its abilities. As Tom put the scale into his shield, Andrew's staff glowed the same colours as Tom's shield. Once the glow died down the scale was firmly embedded in Tom's shield and near the handgrip of Andrew's staff was small dragon's scale.
Andrew decided to see what would happen if he touched it so he pressed his thumb into the grove with the dragon scale and suddenly in front of him was large dragon scale the size of Tom's shield. He tried to put his hand on it but was amazed when his hand went right through it. When he called out Pyroar (male) and told it to use flamethrower on him.
The flamethrower came forwards but never got past the scale shield that Andrew had in front of him. He called Pyroar back and said to their amazed faces, "Well let's go free Sepron."
With that they rode off into the sunset ready for the three day trek ahead of them.
AN-I know it's been a few days since my last update but I just wasn't motivated enough. It's up now be happy and if you want to think of the Garfield movie with Happy Chapman. See ya.
