Part XIV

The knights began to move away from the Glen as Cammi waved back at his new found friends partically Cubbi and Lilli as their unicorns began to speed up and the Glen was beginning to fade behind them. To Cammi the ride back to Gummadoon from the Glen seemed quite quick as his thoughts strayed to Lilli. She was a dream that haunted him she was perfect her snowy white fur her sky blue eyes and long black braided hair. She was all he could think about yet it seemed strange he'd been round lots of other girls his same age and never felt this way about them so why was Lilli so different. He was so wrapped up in his own thoughts he hadn't noticed that they were already in Gummadoon and that his father had already dismounted his unicorn and was looking at him.

Cammi jumped off his dad's unicorn and gazed around the grounds and began walking with his dad to the stables hoping he hadn't been staring off to long when he heard someone calling his name it prevented him. Cammi swirled round and looked up the flight of stairs where he saw his mother and the two Councillors.

Forgetting about everything, Cammi did the only thing that was on his mind, he ran up the flight of stairs and jumped into his mother's arms that embraced him tightly. For a long moment the two stood there embracing one another until they finally broke apart from one another, Cammi's mother placing him back on his feet again.

"You're getting a bit heavy," she said to which Cammi laughed.

Sir Plucki had just finished seeing to his unicorn when he saw Cammi embrace him mother, he looked like a five year old cub again with the childlike expression and the innocent smile but it soon vanished and Sir Plucki could see that he was being serious now. He made his way over towards them and upon reaching heard Cammi asks his mother about the reincarnation that Tarquan had told him about. Sir Plucki listened intensively to Cammi's mother talking to Cammi about the legend knight who fought against Tarquan, and before he died cast a spell that entrapped Tarquan in an underground prison allowing no harm to come to the rest of the world. He listened as she spoke that Tarquan would only be freed partly from his prison when the knight was reborn and that Cammi was that knight and that had been reborn. He stood there for a moment thinking about the information that she had told Cammi and wondered why she hadn't told them sooner if she already knew about the reincarnation as he looked at the Councillor's surprised expressions, this was new to them he thought. He decided to ask Cammi's mother about reincarnation later when Cammi interrupted his thoughts

"Mother, what happened to my sword" he gestured as he pulled it out from its sheath revealing the swords blade that gave off a silver white light.

"I put a spell on it to protection you, young one" she replied.

"You did" he replied somewhat shocked "But how"

Cammi's mother held out her paw and revealed to Cammi an ancient gummi medallion as he stared at it in awe.

The group then separated in different directions Cammi with his mother and foster dad headed towards the training grounds while the two Councillors went back to the tower.

The two Councillors where discussing a plan about Tarquan on what his weakness might be and decided to have a look in the library in the restricted area where Cammi had first found the book on Tarquan.

Cammi entered the grounds with his mother and that his foster father would soon join them, he guessed that he and his father were probably going to be training and soon saw he was right as his watched his dad enter carrying his staff. Cammi felt a change of sensation in him, he unsheathed his sword and followed his dad onto the fighting beam, his mother looking after him for a moment smiling at his calmness.

The two looked at one another, Sir Plucki could see that this was no longer Cammi since he was so calm and his eyes looked older and unreadable. He wanted to test and see what these past moves where that Tarquan spoke of even though he didn't believe him until he saw Cammi fighting Tarquan did he realise that Cammi had a totally different experience in fighting.

Cammi held his sword in his hand and stood looking at Sir Plucki for a moment before raising his sword and bringing it down on him to which Sir Plucki easily blocked. Cammi then removed his sword as Sir Plucki swung his staff at him, which he blocked in perfect accuracy, and timing, which seemed to have impressed Sir Plucki.

The two then stopped, Cammi could see that his father was convinced by something as he sheathed his sword and followed his father off the fighting beam.

For the rest of that afternoon Cammi had been given permission by his mother to go and play while she and Sir Plucki held a conversation.

Cammi ran towards the stables to saddle his unicorn preparing to go to the Glen but whilst on the way he was stopped by his father's two friends who informed him that the Glens had come to Gummadoon and was in the Councillors tower as he raced off to meet them. He soon arrived at the tower and could see his friends at the other end of the tower with their parents who seemed to be in deep conversation with the Councillors. Cammi didn't have to look twice to see that his friends weren't interested in the conversation as he raced across the marble floor passing a few knights and gummi residents as he came up to a small pink cub with a blue cap and recognised instantly as Cubbi as he said,

"Hey, Cubbi"

"Cammi" the small pink turned to look at him.

"Do you wonna have a look round" said Cammi looking at Cubbi's eager expression.

Cammi looked hopefully at the Councillors and the cub's parents who reluctantly nodded at him as he guided Cubbi and his other friends out of the tower passing his mother as he went. He led them to the training ground, which seemed to grab their attention even Stanney's. Cammi watched his father and Sir Gumlittle training, both seemed evenly matched; he remembered a similar occasion with his father and him training.

Flashback

Cammi was seven years old, he was in the same training grounds as he stood in now, and he was standing a few metres in front of his dad, staff in hand and held in position. He was going to be tested on the moves he had recently been taught by his dad and his friends. He hadn't been training long when his dad had knocked the staff from his hands disarming him but Cammi still had one trick up his sleeve. He dodged the few attacks but missed one as he was knocked to the ground. Cammi had immediately reacted and did a sneak attack on his dad as he kicked his feet from underneath him making him fall to the ground.

Using the chance while his dad was on the ground Cammi had grabbed his staff beside him stood up and was now aiming his staff at his dad, a mischievous, satisfied smile playing on his lips.

End of flashback

Cammi smiled at the memory but also became aware that his friends were looking at him as well as his foster father and Sir Gumlittle. He quickly snapped back to reality as he led his friends away from the training grounds and showed them the rest of Gummadoon, he only hoped he hadn't zoned out too long to make his father worried.

Sir Plucki chuckled at Cammi's sudden rush, he could clearly see that Cammi was remembering something by the way he just stared out to no where in particular as he turned his attention back to training and fighting his opponent Sir Gumlittle.
