~chapter 15
The four were making their way through the forest away from the village. Faint shouts could still be heard coming from the dirrection. After about 20 minutes of walking, the group stopped to rest. Justin's back was still sore, but he was able to stand, Jared's arm still hurt, but he could move it, Link had cuts on his knuckles, forehead, and bruises on his chest. Fenix was fine however. Suddenly the sounds of battle cries told them they were not far enough away.
"We've got to move. They are moving into the forest." Fenix said. The others groaned but they complied and walked deeper into the forest. After a few more hours of walking, they came to a clearing. The sun above shown that it was around one in the afternoon. The sounds of the fight had long dissapeared. They walked a bit more through the field and came to a hill. Looking down, the hill, they saw a small cottage with chickens buzzing around in a chicken coop and a small field of crops behind it. A few cows were grazing around the field. They jogged down the hill and towards the house. The farmer who had been standing outside took notice of them.
"Hello strangers!" the farmer greeted in a Scottish accent. He stood about 5'11, had long dark brown hair which was covered by an old straw hat, he looked to be in his mid-30's, he wore overalls over a dark red long sleeved shirt with the sleeves rolled up, and old boots covering his feet. "Oh...m- my...an elf..." the farmer stuttered when he saw Fenix. "Sir, this is a great honor..." Fenix nodded
"Please, sir," Link said wearily.
"Oh, name's John, John Walton." the farmer said introducing himself.
"Well...we were wondering if perhaps you'd be kind enough to spare some food and give us a place to rest for a while." Link said.
"Hmm...you look like someone familiar...might I get your names, travelers?" Walton asked.
"I am...uh...Pac..." Link said. He pointed to Jared and Justin. "That's Jared, Justin. And that is Fenix." The farmer gripped Links hand and shook it firmly.
"Wonderful to meet you, Master Pac." Walton said, for Master followed by the first name was the proper thing to call someone to show respect. "I would be delighted to accommodate the four of you." He started to lead them towards his home but suddenly stopped. "What in the heavens is that?" Walton said stopping and looking up in the sky. Link and the others stopped as well, peering up. A strange creature was flying in the air towards them.
Gondar flew through the air scanning the ground.
"Where are those blasted kids!?" he shouted to himself. He flew over the forest, but was able to search through the thick brush as he flew at blinding speed. Having been searching for hours now, his anger was welling up inside. Suddenly the trees dissapeared and a clear field came into view. He saw a tiny cottage. Five tiny dots came into view and a sneer curled onto Gondar's lips. He flew right to their position and stopped, immediately powering up a large energy blast.
"Surprise!" Gondar hissed. The shocked face on Link was amusing to Gondar. With a grunt, he released the attack and shot it down at the group. The energy sailed through the air and smashed into them, obliterating them and exploding in a black cloud. When the smoke cleared, there was nothing left except the ground and the cottage, which had been well out of the way of the blast anyway. Gondar cackled triumphantly.
"Hah, and so ends the pests! If you want a job done, you really have to do it yourself. " he mumbled smugly. Then he flew off to continue his evil plans.
And so, with the heroes killed, the only ones to stop Gondar's mad plans gone, the saviors of the world totally destroyed, Gondar was free to run his rein of terror. The world would be enveloped in a darkness for the rest of humanity...
THE END...
wait...
something stirred...the ground itself began to shake and part, it opened up and spewed forth the group.
"Wow, that was fast thinking, Fenix." Link sighed. Just before the blast hit, Fenix had used the earth essence to open up the ground and conceal them, protecting them from the attack.
"Who, or what, was that?!" The farmer said shocked.
"Gondar..." Ling growled. "He's trying to take over the world..."
"Oh my...what a dreadful thing to do..." Walton muttered.
"No shit, Sherlock… " Jared mumbled to himself
"Perhaps it would be best if we head inside..." Fenix said, eyes still on the sky.
'Yes, well, in we go." Walton said, leading them inside.
