Cage Bird in the Dark
Chapter5
Alfeegi couldn't see anything. Everything was dark. His head was pounding and he couldn't move his arm. He could slightly hear the other dragon officers calling his name as well as Lykouleon's, and the dragon knights'.
What had happened? He couldn't remember. But ever so slowly his memory began to come back. He remembered finding out that Lykouleon and the dragon knights were gone. Then having to go out and search for them. He remember bright colored lights attacking each other, and then, nothing.
"Alfeegi? Alfeegi, damnit where are you? Oh shit, now I'm starting to sound like you too!" Ruwalk suddenly fell through one of the weak spots in the rock where they were looking for their missing friends. "Shit that hurt." Ruwalk said softly rubbing his head where he had hit it.
"You're real graceful, aren't you," Alfeegi said teasingly.
"There you are. Kai-Stern, I found Alfeegi!" Ruwalk shouted up to the blue dragon officer.
"Do you need any help?" he questioned peering over the side of the hole.
"Yhea, just a little if you don't mind."
When the two had gotten Alfeegi to a safe spot where he could rest they saw that Tetheus was learning over someone. Leaning over the same person was Lord Lykouleon who appeared to be unharmed.
"Kai-Stern, Ruwalk, we found Thatz. He seems fine." Tetheus said before they could ask.
"Yhea, I'm fine, besides the giant headache that I just got. You know have a ton of rocks fall on you isn't fun."
"Well we're lucky your so hard headed then aren't we. Your skull is to thick to be broken by a rock."
Everyone looked over to see Rath. It took a moment for the fire knight's comment to sink in, but when it did Tetheus and Kai-Stern had to hold back Thatz from trying to kill Rath.
Rath, however, wasn't paying attention. Instead he was looking around the room. "Hey, where's Rune?"
"We don't know. We haven't found him yet." Ruwalk said.
"I think we just did," came Lykouleon's from somewhere close to where the window in Nadil's room had once been. He was kneeling down by an unmoving figure.
"Is he dead?" Rath asked worriedly when he reached the Lord's side.
"No, just blacked out. We should leave now though, I don't think that this place is somewhere we want to be right now." They all nodded they all nodded.
Rath took Rune's form into his arms, while Ruwalk helped Alfeegi to his feet.

"How is he?" Thatz asked walking into the room where Rath was seated. A little ways away he saw Rune lying on the bed.
"Still hasn't woken up."
"Well Lord Lykouleon may come down here later to check on him."
"He already did. He said that he didn't know why Rune won't wake up."
"Don't worry I'm sure he'll be up soon and we'll have to run for our lives again."
Rath let a small grin slip onto his face as Thatz stood up and then leaving, closed the door.
"I heard that, I hope you know," came Rune's small voice.
"Rune! You're finally awake!" Rath shouted happily, throwing his arms around the elf as the other tried to sit up.
"Rath, can you let go of me? I can't breath."
"Oh, sorry."
"It's okay. "
"Hey, Rune?
Yes?"
"I'm sorry about all this. If I hadn't told you that."
"Rath, it would have probably have happened anyways. Even if we hadn't gotten into a fight," the elf said placing a hand on the fire knight's shoulder.
"So you forgive me?"
"Yes, I forgive you."
A smiling Thatz, Lykouleon, Ruwalk, and Alfeegi all moved on down the hall, as to let the two have their privacy. Thatz had suggested listening in to see what happened after he had closed the door and heard Rune's voice. The others had come along and they had decided to listen as well.
"Thatz?" Ruwalk questioned.
"Hum?"
"What exactly were Rath and Rune fighting about in the first place?"
Thatz just walked off with a grin plastered on his face. He loved knowing things that others didn't.

Little did the Dragon Tribe know that in the destruction of Nadil's castle the demon lord was somehow still alive, and that he was seeking revenge on the elf.
