Chapter 7: The end
Three weeks later…
"I still feel that I shouldn't have fought him. What do you think?" Mikel pondered as he relaxed on a hammock outside. "I don't know, it was either him or us. You think it could have been different?" Jake replied. "It's a possibility..but not likely." Mikel replied. With this answer, Mikel turned away to ponder his thoughts: the events, the fight, and the letter. Mikel then got it out and looked at it again. With wet eyes, he let go of the letter, which flew off with the wind; a great weight lifted off his shoulders.
Mikel then got up to stretch, when Fu came in to the scene.
"Aha! You didn't get me this time, buddy." Mikel said in cockiness.
"Yeah, yeah. Listen, there's some troll trouble going off in Times Square. Go check it out." Fu said as he laid in the hammock. With that, Mikel looked at Jake, and said "Well, might as well." With that, Mikel smiled and flew off, ready to fulfill his duty.
Later, in Baytown..
Gabe sat in a dim-litted room. He was depressed since Keith died, and had found no comfort. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a envelope which contained a letter. He opened it and read.
Gabe,
I never meant to hurt anybody. I understand your loss, for yours and my feelings are one and the same. I only hope that one day, we can see each other again, like old times. I only regret that I was not there to save him…I feel lost now. Until then, my duties are to myself, my friends, and the magical community. Even though I am a protector, I am still your friend, and I always will be. Remember that I'm always there in spirit when you need somebody.
With a sincere heart, Mikel Richardson
"Amdrag in training"
P.S-I guess you can't call me Silvermane anymore.
After reading this, Gabe felt happy again. Refreshed, he got up and went outside, knowing that there was always someone to watch over his shoulder whenever he was down.
That's the end of it. Please review!!!
