Cage Bird in the Dark
Chapter 6
Five days after rescuing Rune
"Hey Rune, you want to go on a walk with Thatz and me?" Rath asked, sticking his head into Rune's room.
"Yhea, if I don't you two will never come back. I'll be there in just a minute."
"Great, we'll go ahead and start walking toward the one forest that's a few miles away from the castle. Follow us when you can."
*****
Rune was walking toward the forest Rath had told him that they were heading to. He had been walking for a while and was being to wonder how far ahead of him the two were. Suddenly he felt a cold fear in his heart, a fear that he had only felt when.
"No. We defeated him. He can't be here," Rune said to himself, shaking his head to clear it of the thought.
"Oh, I can't be here, can I? Then why am I?" a cold voice said from a few feet to Rune's left. A pair of hands suddenly shot out of the growing dark and grabbed the elf.
"No, you can't be alive. We killed you," Rune said in a shaken whisper.
"But I am alive, you failed yet again to truly get rid of me," Nadil said as he toughened his grip on the elf's arms. The demon lord looked down at the frightened creature in front of him and a sickly smile formed on his face. "I will have revenge on you for what you did."
"No, no, no, this can't be happening," was the only thing Rune found himself able to say.
"I assure you that this is no dream, but reality," Nadil whisper dangerously into the water knight's ear.
*****
"Hey Rath, don't you think he would have caught up by now?" Thatz asked. He was getting tired of waiting for their fellow knight, not to mention he was also hungry.
"He couldn't have been that far behind us."
"So then, where is he?"
"Do I look as if I know? Come on lets go find him." Rath started walking back the way they had come. Before he could take more than ten steps a bright flash of white light covered all of Dusis.
"Did you..?" Thatz asked getting up from where he had fallen when the light had almost blinded him.
"Yhea, I heard it. It sounded like."
"RUNE!" both yelled together, now running like crazy back toward the dragon castle.
*****
Lykouleon and the dragon officers were in a meeting when the dragon lord suddenly looked up, a shocked and worried expression on his face.
"Lord Lykouleon what..?" before Alfeegi could finish the same light that Rath and Thatz had seen hit the dragon castle. Every single member of the dragon tribe heard a small weak voice as the light reached its climax.
"No, this can't be happening, it can't."
"Was it just me or did that sound like.?"
"Rune," Lykouleon said in a shaken whisper before Kai-Stern could finish.
*****
As Nadil let out an evil chuckle, Rune suddenly felt as if all his energy was being drained from him. Nadil released him when he saw the white light that had covered the knight's body, only to shot outwards a few seconds later.
Once Nadil had recovered, he stood and looked over at the elf, who had by now blacked out. "Well, you used the last of your strength in a cry for help, hm? But it can't be possible, the only three people who could ever cry for help that way would be the dragon lord, the dragon queen, or the dragon heir. There is no way you could be Lykouleon's heir, unless." Nadil broke out into an evil laughter.
"So she gave up her dragon blood, became an elf, and gave birth to you. And Lykouleon never realized you were his nephew. This is just to perfect."

Ok, if people don't like the whole nephew idea then tell me. I'm going to take a vote and if people don't like it then I'll take this chapter down and write a different one.
Sorry for the shortness of the chapter.
