Hi! It's me again!

Icefire: And ME!

Me: Oh da joy....(note the sarcasm)

Icefire: Whatever, REVIEW!!!

On With The Chapter!

Chapter Nineteen

Plan in Action

Milk and Cookies...What is this!? Merithuros hurt her head trying to figure out what double meaning was behind this.

Maybe if I torture it out of a servant...No, I'll have to kill her after, and then everyone would be on their toes...What is Milk and Cookies?

Merithuros was broken out of her train of thought by a knock on her door.

"Come in," she called. The door opened and one of the servants, Matilda, walked in.

"Good morning my lady, I have brought your breakfast," Matilda said while bowing.

"Good morning Matilda, can I ask you something?"

"Yes of course"

"But you have to swear in the ancient language not to tell anyone"

The servant seemed to hesitate before speaking, "What my lady, is so important that I would have t-"

"Swear first and I'll tell you."

"Okay, my lady."

Merithuros recited the ancient language while binding the woman to her word.

"Do you know what Milk and Cookies is?" Merithuros asked calmly.

"You mean like chocolate chip cookies and milk?" the woman asked quizzically.

"NO Go- I mean no, umm, the place Milk and Cookies," she almost screamed at the lady. That would not have worked out in her favor.

"No my lady, I don't know any place with such a name," the lady said in confusion.

"Okay, you shall leave," Merithuros said while waving her hand.

"Yes, my lady?" the lady said in bewilderment as she walked out the door.

Merithuros growled and slammed her fist into the wall. This stupid place would ruin her! What if Murtagh came and asked her to tell him what Milk and Cookies was?her cover would be blown,unless she kept on feigning an injury every time it is brought up. No, that would be stupid....

What was she going to do?

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Mortalitas and Icefire landed in Milk and Cookies right before the sun set.

Okay, so you'd go into the palace, tell Murtagh that Estarael wants to show him Milk and Cookies since she thinks that he doesn't know what it is, now tell him also to play along....let her show him...Got that?

Yes, where would you go? Why can't yo go instead of me?

Merithuros would know the difference after all you are her dragon, even f by magic. I'd go to Thorn, inform him of everything.

But-

It's the only way to catch her, we have to tell someone. We'll never be able to catch her by ourselves. At least urtagh wouldn't know.

I guess...it is the only way...

I'm glad you see it this way, now go!

Take care.

You take care.

Mortalitas jumped into the now dark sky and flew to the kingdom. She had cast over the spell so she looked like Icefire still.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Murtagh lay on his bed with his eyes wide opened. He didn't love her. But he was going to marry her, he'd have to live with it...

He turned on his side and tried to close his eyes but a knock on his window made him get up.

Little one

Icefire, what is it?

Estarael wanted to show you Milk and Cookies, remember she doesn't know that you know of there.

But I mentioned it when she returned.

She sprained her ankle soon after, I doubt she'll remember.

When? When is she going to show me?

She said first thing in the morning. remember play along.

Why can't I just tell her you told me when she ran away?

Because this means a lot to her. She never showed this to anyone but me. She wants to show you, you're going to marry her.

Okay, I'll play along.

Thank you little one, that is all I ask.

Mortalitas flew off. Now for Merithuros, she said to herself.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Thorn! Wake up!

Icefire! What do you want?!

I need to tell you something I-

Well go ahead!

You interrupted! Don't interrupt this is important!

Yes! Tell me

The Icefire you thought was me, well he-or she, wasn't me. Estarael isn't Estarael either....look how about I just share my memories with you.

Okay, come on this sounds important!

Icefire shared every memory with Thorn since the rescue. It was a lot easier and not to mention faster this way.

Wow. We need to tell the Murtagh!

Mortalitas is taking care of Murtagh, we would have to tell the king and queen.

Mortalitas wouldn't like that.

But we must do it

I agree. Let's go!

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Mortalitas? What is it!?

I need to warn you! Murtagh wants you to show him Milk and Cookies tomorrow morning!

What!? I do not know what that is!

He knows what it is he just wanted you to show him since he wanted it to be something special!

Ugh! What the hell are we going to do?!

We? Thorn, Saphira and I have to go hunting tomorrow!

You have to stay with me! Besides how do you know Murtagh wanted this?

He told me!

Don't dare snap at me you ass!

Whatever, all I know is you're going to have to figure something out! Mortalitas flew away and cut off their link. She didn't want to have Merithuros escape this plan.

She flew back to Milk and Cookies and waited for Icefire.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"What!" The king yelled.

"Oh! My poor baby! She-she's still out there!" The queen sobbed.

The queen's sadness even matched the king's rage. Thorn stood by the door blocking the king from going to Meithuros' room and severing her head.

"So this dragon is helping you?"

Yes, Icefire spoke to both of them.

"And that, that thing ho is pretending to be Estarael is evil?!"

Correct

"And my baby is stuck in the past?" The queen choked out.

That is also correct. Now you can't go and kill her just yet. Her dragon wanted Murtagh to find her out. Just wait till tomorrow morning and everything should be good again.

"What about Estarael-the real one?" the king asked.

We'll torture it out of Merithuros if we have to, we'll get back Estarael. Believe me I would die if I have to to find her. Icefire had tears in his eyes as he spoke.

"Thank you," the queen said through sobs.

We are going now, Well I'm going, Thorn will remain here and answer any questions. I have to get back to Mortalitas.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Mortalitas began to pace the ground reciting everything about the plan in her head.

Mortalitas!

Icefire! Where were you?!

I needed to tell the king and queen

Okay...

Look don't get angry or anyth- okay?

Yes, I realized that, we can't destroy Merithuros without help. But just don't tell Murtagh as yet. He needs to figure it out on his own.

Yes, don't worry, it's going to be okay.

I do hope you are saying the truth.

Icefire looked down. He wasn't so sure if everything would go flush, but he was positive it would work. Everything, every single thing was planned out. They had catered for everything. He smiled and looked back at her.

Everything would be fine, I promise.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Merithuros rose from her bed and paced the ground.

"What the hell am I going to do?" She cursed.

Yes, review, tell me everything and anything. It could go from hating the entire plot to loving pie. Yes loving pie, as long as I get a review! I personally think I made this chapter go too fast, so tell me what you think!

Icefire: I love pie..

Me: No one asked you.

Icefire: And?

Me: - sigh - Review!
