Ch.6
The New Fight and the Old One
What Gregor saw in there made him freeze. His mom and dad standing their looking half starved.
"Gregor?" Called a raspy voice that belonged to his mom Grace
"Gregor!" They said together sort of limping their way over to him.
"Hey." Gregor said in a whisper while being surrounded by his parent's hug.
"Alright let's get this reunion over so we can get out of here!" Ripred said impatiently. Gregor and his parents hopped on Authra and began to get out of the hill. They flew out one of the exits and were surrounded by cutters.
"Damn!" Gregor huffed under his breath. He hopped off Authra and stood back to back with Ripred ready to rage.
"Spin attack Gregor!" Ripred said tearing through the cutter's line with his spin attack. Gregor began to spin also. After a while of fighting Ripred yelled,
"Gregor get out of h-" He didn't finish because just then he was swarmed buy about 1,000 cutters. Gregor jumped onto Authra and remembered what Ripred had said, "I start to crack at about 400 to 1." He couldn't help but start to cry.
"Gregor, what is wrong?" Grace asked.
"Ripred is dead!"
"So? That is one less person who can kill my baby!"
"YOU DON'T EVEN CARE ABOUT HIM? HE IS THE ONE WHO BROUGHT ME HERE AND SAVED YOU AND YOU DON'T CARE!?" Gregor more or less screamed. The rest of the flight was silent except for the occasional sniffle from Gregor. When they finally reached the High Hall, Gregor jumped off and was enveloped in a hug from his sisters and then from Luxa. Midway through his hug with Luxa she asked,
"Is Ripred-?"
"Yes." She began to have tears fall from her eyes as well. He kissed her and told her,
"He was a great mentor."
