Chapter 5
It was 5 to 6 days we were at the dreaded island. We have faced Uhai, a powerful Nomad Trooper, a mysterious cloaked creature that has the ability to do magic seal and a powerful Druid that can use the dark magic Eclipse. I wasn't called because my arm was stiff and need to rest.
Other than the fierce foes we have some new allies, Fiora, Florina's sister, and Dart, a pirate that was on Fargus' ship. Other than that we found out that Matthew's girlfriend died from Jaffar (I can tell from the scar) and I forgot to mention, Lucius got his haircut. He must have gotten it from Jaffar's attack at the pirate ship and to be honest he almost look like Raven with that cut.
"I'm going to hell!" Lucius cried
"Stop it!" Raven shouted
"You don't understand," Lucius replied, "a monk cutting his hair is a sin and I can only cut it if I were a bishop."
"At least you look better at it." I said
Lucius was about to say something, but he decides not to. Then I saw Tommy and Lyn talking to each other about something. I decide to join in.
"Hey you two," I said, "what's going on?"
"We are going to face Lord Darin," Lyn said, "and I heard that he has a lot of soldiers at his disposal."
"By the looks of it we will have a tough battle."
"Yes," Tommy called, "how's your arm?"
"It's fine" I replied
"So you can fight?"
"Yes!"
"Mother!" Nino's voice booms in the dark hallway, not noticing Jaffar was behind her.
"Mother! Where are you?"
"Nino." Jaffar called
"Ah- Jaffar?"
"Follow me..."
She followed the assassin to a room, where Sonia and Ephdel are talking about something.
"Ephdel," Sonia asked, "you didn't kill Kevin! Why?"
"I though he was," he said, "He must be unconscious."
"You should have destroyed him!"
Nino was stoned after hearing those words from Sonia, and to think she was going to tell her that he is alive.
"Listen," Sonia mumbled, "Lord Nergal knew his hidden gifts and if he found out about it we are in big trouble."
"I'm aware of that!"
Nino stepped back and bumps into someone behind him. She looked back and it was only Jaffar.
"Let's go." Jaffar said
"Where to?" Nino asked
"To your brother."
"Here we are," Hector said, "Dragon's gate."
"Something doesn't feel right." Eliwood said
"I know," I replied, "something tells me that someone is watching us."
"Are you two okay?" Lyn asked
Eliwood nodded, but I was looking around to see if anyone was watching us. None. But then a robed man appeared out of nowhere. He was wearing a black robe has these golden eyes that spell trouble.
"Give me the girl!" the robed man asked
"What do you want with her?" Eliwood asked
"That is not of your concern," he replied, "now hand it over and no one will get hurt."
"Stay back Ninian." Lyn whispered
"Stay back you monster!" Hector shouted
"What you going to do?" he laughed, "hit me with an axe?"
"That's it!"
Hector attacked and the robed man disappeared.
"Where did he go?" Hector growled
But I know where. Just as that man appeared I punched him at the face and crashed him to the wall.
"You are not going to take her!" I shouted
"Not bad," the hooded man moaned, "not bad at all Kevin."
"How did you..."
"Sonia told me about you," he said, "too bad you can't use your other gift."
"You mean this," I smiled, "Flame!"
Everyone notice my hair turning red and was surrounded in an orange aura. But then, when I was about to strike, the hooded figure disappeared and I returned to my old self. Everyone was shocked at my hidden gift. Then I finally said
"Kim, Tom," I called calmly, "we need a plan."
At the Dragon's Gate was Ephdel was talking a hooded kid with a Steel blade (twice his size!) in his back.
"John," he muttered, "I am glad to say that I have found a worthy adversary. His name is Kevin and if you kill him, Lord Negal will reward us greatly. So do whatever it takes to win!"
John nodded and the Morph warped his way to his master.
"Kevin..." John mumbled, "where have I heard that name before?"
