Chapter 4: Arrival

Wandering around the streets of Corus, Alan a familiar looking boy out in the middle of the road. Alan ran up to him, not believing his eyes.

"Roald?" he said, staring up at him. Roald looked down.

"May I help you?" Roald asked.

"Hello? It's me! Alan!" Alan cried.

"Oh. Right. It's you. Look, I really have to go. I've got a job you know." Without another look at Alan, Roald left. His break was almost over.

"Wait!" Alan ran after him. "Do you know where Thom and Alianne are?"

"Try the Royal Forest," Roald said, not looking back. Soon he all but disappeared, leaving Alan standing in the middle of a crowded street, looking very lost.

Shaking his head, Alan headed toward the Royal Forest. He had nothing better to do. And even if his siblings weren't there, a walk through the forest would be nice.

Whoa. Short chapter. VERY short. It's so short that it's scary. Hehe. Sorry about that. Promise the next one will be longer. -Satiaus
