Mount Fortain
chapter 11
The next day, the sun was just rising. Jack and Antoine had got lost so they slept under a tree. When they woke up, the trees in front of them were burned. "This power is getting out of control," Jack said. "I know. You lost it yesterday," said Antoine. "I had to do something. I couldn't let both of us die." All of a sudden, they heard a voice. "Jack! Antoine!" "That sounds like Madisen," Jack said. "Hey, Madisen! We're over here!" Then, Madisen came walking towards them from some bushes. "There you guys are. We were worried that girl got to you," Madisen said while pushing tree branches out of her way. "She didn't kill us but she tried," said Antoine. "I should have known." "Yeah, it's all right now. She's long gone. Let's get back to the others," Jack said.
Jack and Antoine got up and left with Madisen. When they got there, everyone was awake but Lily was still hurt."There you guys are. What happened?" Justice asked. "Well, we were looking for food when we saw that girl that attacked us," said Antoine. "Then we got lost," Jack added. "Can you guys do anything right?" Dawson said. "Hey, shut up! It was too dark," said Antoine. "Are you ok Lily?" Jack asked. "Y-Yeah, thanks to Madisen and Justice," Lily answered. "I'm sorry you got hurt because of me. It won't happen again." "It's ok. I just wanted to protect my friends."
Then, everyone except Lily started getting up and grabbed their bags. "We should get going," Doug suggested. "Yeah," Jack agreed. Madisen started helping Lily up. "H-Hey, can stop at a town? We need equipment for first aid and other stuff," said Madisen. "We also need clothes. I cannot go around places in dirty clothes," said Justice. "All right. We'll stop at the next town," said Jack. Then, they headed out. The group walked on a dirt path. The sun shined above them but it wasn't too hot. "Where did that girl go anyway?" Madisen asked. "She was gonna kil us but Jack snapped and set the forest on fire. It was kind of cool," said Antoine. "How did he do that?" Doug asked. "I don't know," said Jack. "Something snapped inside of me and I could only see flames." "That sounds bad," Dawson said. "At least you aren't dead," Lily said relieved. "So, why are we going to this temple again?" Justice asked."We're going so we can figure out what these powers are," Antoine answered. "Jack already figured out his. It's fine," Dawson said. "Now let's go home." "Hey, if you want to go back, you can. No one asked you to come dumbass," Antoine said, a little annoyed. "You want to fight about it moron?" Dawson asked while getting in Antoine's face. "We're here," said Lily. Everyone looked towards Lily and Madisen who were in front of the group. They saw multiple buildings and a tall white windmill in the center.
The group started heading into town. Most buildings were made out of wood or bricks. "Wow, this town looks like an old country village," said Justice. A dirt path lied in front of them with the buildings on the sides and the windmill in the middle of the path. "Yeah. I think this town is called Elequen for the once famous queen Elequen that lived here," Lily informed. Then, a cold wind swept by. The teens looked straight and saw an older woman with a white hat and feather on it.
