Chapter 8
Now that everybody seemed to know she didn't have so hard a time keeping it to herself. When Kel exited outside her bedroom Tobe came to her instantly. "Lord Wyldon needs to see you immediately." Kel nodded and raced off to head quarters where she knew Lord Wyldon would be waiting. "Sir, you need me?" she asked trying to breathe again. He nodded and motioned her to sit down. "I just received a letter from the king," he started though practically really annoyed, "he wants you at the court as quickly as you can be there. It has something to do with the border." Kel nodded happy to get out of New Hope before they put her back in the infirmary.
"I'll get ready and ride out in a few moments. I'll go alone no one needs to know about it. Right Sir?" Wyldon reluctantly nodded. She knew a dismissal when she saw one. She got her things together and was leading Peach blossom out of the stables when Tobe walked up to her enraged. "Where do you think you're going Lady Knight?" She rolled her eyes and leaped onto Peach blossom. "I have to go alone Tobe, king's orders." He screamed with rage as he ran off to the infirmary. She knew he would go tell Neal and Dom, but she would be long gone by the time they came out. She galloped out of New Hope and headed down the road toward the kingdom.
It would be a three day ride in the least.
As she got ready for a good night's rest she decided it would be better to sleep under the stars. As she looked up at them she fell asleep slowly. When she woke up though she wasn't outside she was chained to a wall. What in Mithros name is going on here? She didn't have long to wait before she saw her captor. Joren, I should have known he would find a way to get me back. She looked down at herself scared, and realized she was naked.(sorry everyone)
"Open the gates it's the commander's horse," someone shouted inside the gate. Peach blossom galloped inside looking for Tobe. He knew that he was the only person he could talk to. Tobe ran out instantly, and saw that Kel was not with her horse. After he talked to Peach blossom he ran like the wind to head quarters where he knew Lord Wyldon, Lord Raoul, Neal, Merric, and Dom to be. He opened the door quickly and rushed inside. "Peach blossom is back," he announced crazily.
"Kel's back?" The men all gave questioning looks. "Without Kel," Tobe said startling them, "Peach blossom says that these men came out of no where and took Kel while she was asleep. They tied him up before he could kill him. They went west." All the men jumped up in alarm and ran to grab their packs that they always had ready. They cursed themselves well as they made ready to ride. "I should have made her take guards with her. We know she can protect herself, but she has a new weakness." He didn't make himself go on everyone knew where that sentence was being lead to.
"Who could have taken her?" hissed Raoul angrily. They rode out of New Hope before anyone could answer that question. "Joren," yelled Merric, Neal, and Dom instantly. They all shook their heads angrily. " We should have gone with her," Merric, Neal, and Dom hissed. "There's nothing we can do now, but find her," Lord Wyldon and Lord Raoul said.
