Cage Bird in the Dark
Chapter 7
The Dragon Castle
"But how could Rune do that. Only three people can. Two of them are here and the other one doesn't even exist!"
"Alfeegi calm down. There must be a reason as to why Rune could call for help that way." Ruwalk was trying his best to calm the white dragon officer, but everyone could see that it was not anger that showed in his eyes, but worry.
Rath, Thatz, and Lykouleon just all sat there in silence as the dragon officers fought among themselves. Rath because he felt that he had let Rune down again. Thatz because he was worried for the elf. And Lykouleon because he knew exactly what had happened.
"BUT HOW?! Some one just answer me that!"
"Would you calm down Alfeegi?!" Kai-Stern had finally snapped, and began yelling at Alfeegi.
"Melsern wasn't dead. She was still alive."
"What?" Ruwalk asked shocked.
"Melsern didn't die."
"Melsern, your sister?" Alfeegi asked. His attitude had changed from anger to pure shock. Thatz looked up, a questioning look on his face. Rath just stayed as he was. He had heard the story about Lykouleon's sister. The others in the room had all gone quiet.
"She must have made a deal with the faerie elder before he died. She gave up her dragon blood for elfin blood. The elder couldn't change it all because then it would have torn her soul apart. That's why water picked him. Rune already had dragon blood."
"So he really is your heir." If it was possible then the room became even more silent.
***** Rath's room, later that night.
"So you want to tell me about this Melsern?" Thatz asked coming up behind Rath. Rath just looked up and sighed. "Rath, he'll be alright. Rune can take care of himself."
"I just can't help but worry about him."
"It's because you trust him. He's the only one that you do trust here, that's why you worry so much about him." There was a moment of silence between the two. "So.you want to tell me about this Melsern now?"
"She was the lord's sister. Twin sister actually. We had thought she had been killed a long time ago, by demons. As you heard, she wasn't and made a deal with the faerie elder."
"So that would explain why Lykouleon and Rune look so much alike." [1]
*****Nadil's Castle
"My lord, why do you keep him alive?" Shydeman asked when he saw that the elf was still alive.
"Because I'm going to cause Lykouleon as much pain as possible. Kill his new found heir in front of him. It would break him."
"I understand, my lord." Shydeman closed the door gently as he left the room
Nadil turned back to the elf when he could no longer hear Shydeman's footsteps. "You will help me fulfill my revenge on your uncle. You will not live to even hear the prophecy that you were born to accomplish," Nadil whispered into the elf's finely pointed ear.

Ok, so what's the prophecy that Rune is suppose to fulfill? Review to find out, if only Cosmos or MoonSeaEarth reviews then I not updating and the story stops here. Sorry this chapter is so short.
[1] I think that if you cut Rune's hair and gave him green eyes that he would look exactly like a younger version of Lykouleon. Cosmos is the one who pointed this out to me. So if you don't think so then I'm sorry, but I place all the blame on Cosmos.
