Chapter 10

I followed the fox, who I learned was named Neven, to his house and he started to train me in the ways of magic that he knew. I learned a lot of new spells, how to get the damn evil stones move right, as well as learned how to do Magical Lightning Bolt, Blindling Flash, as well as a few other spells. Once it was night, I sneak back to my friends and team-mates.

XXXXXXX

"Well back little brother," Oswald said, as I came up.

Kayn tackled me and licked me. Donald and Goofy both gave me hugs, which I re-turned. I hugged Oswald too, who gave me a quick hug back. I grinned at that. He could be such a pain in the tail sometimes, or act like he doesn't care, but I know he does. Even Donald's dragon joined in on the hugs. That was kinda cute, ya know?

"Okay, so where we going next?" Donald asked.

"We go to the next village."

"Then, let's go."

XXXXXXXX

We went to the next village. It was big with houses and people everywhere. By the time we got there, it was lunch time, so we stopped to eat, and I ate mine too fast, and drank some water too fast, and got the hik-ups, making everyone laugh at that. A bear came up to us. The bear had brown fur and a black robe on. All of us looked up at the bear as he stood over us.

"Which one of you is Mickey?" he asked, his black eyes looking around from all of us.

I stepped forward. "I am."

The bear nodded and gave me a white crystal and left. I blinked at it. Everyone looked at it in wonder. Then, it flash a bright light, and a little thing that looked like my teacher, Nereus, stood there. Oswald and I gasped seeing that. Donald and Goofy raised their eyebrows at this, having never seen my teacher before.

"Mickey, thank Goodness! If you're seeing this then that means I have been captured by an evil force. And it's up to your and your friends, that I'm sure you had made some by now on your quest, and save this evil. I will keep in thouch with you through this crystal ball that I have giving the bear. If you even want to talk to me, think very hard and it will happen. I must be going now. Good luck, my apprentice, Oswald, you too."

With that, it stopped glowing. Everyone turned to look at me. I bit my lip at that. How were we suppose to stop this evil and save him? We didn't even know what it was yet, so how could we find them and save my teacher?

"Mickey?' asked Kayn, looking at me with her yellow eyes. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine," I said, softly, looking down at the ground. "But-"

"You're worried about him, ain't you?" Oswald asked.

I nodded to my brother, looking up at him. "Yeah... I am. I mean, I know he can handle himself and all, but.."

"Don't worry, we'll find him," Goofy told me, smiling. "Right?"

"Yeah," added Oswald.

"Yep," said Kayn.

Donald was the only one who hadn't said anything yet. The duck sighed and nodded to.

"Yeah, we will," he said. "You just gotta believe, and put your fate in your friends. We'll do everything in our power to help you find him."

Hearing that, I hugged Donald, which suprised him a bit.

"Thanks, Donald.."

"Welcome, Mickey."

"Come on you guys, let's get looking," I said, turning to look at the rest of the team.

"But what about the turnament?" Oswald asked, knowing that that was something I had to do to get the crystal that Pete took from our village back. "It's only one month away, how are you gonna enter that and find Nereus?"

"I know it's only a month away, Ozzie.. But finding my teacher is what I have to do.. And stop whatever evil has him. If I can't enter the turnament... Then, we'll find another way.."

"Well, maybe you can still enter that and look for him," Goofy spoke up.

"Yeah," agreed Donald.

"I guess," I muttered, before looking at the black wolf, who was quiet.

Kayn seemed to know what I was thinking and nodded, smiling. "Do what you think is right, Mickey."

"Okay," I said, taking a deep breath, and started forward with my friends following behind me. "We'll enter this thing, get the crystal back, get stronger by doing that, then go and find my teacher and stop this evil. It won't be easy, I know, but as long as we stay together, we can do it. I know we can."

Oswald smiled at that. "Well said little brother."

"Well, what are we waiting for?" Donald questioned, looking at all of us. "Let's go!"

Everyone nodded and we set off as our quest continued.
