Chapter 10 : Joy And Merriment
It was December at last. The month of joy and merriment, as well as tons of presents, Christmas carols, huge Christmas trees, and Santa....
It was the 2nd week of the month and Rhine was all alone at home. Kazu and El had gone to Lutie in search for a new Christmas tree while Xan and Selena were off shopping... for last minute celebration stuff from Alberta..
Rhine was at home near the fireplace, and was creating a shopping list.
"Hmm...what should I buy for Kazu? And El..and Selena...and Xan and the others?!" She thought.
Thinking of what to get for them sounded hard, but as she thought and thought, she finally made up her mind. After listing it down, she got out of the house to the city. She strolled along the busy streets and looked at the merchants vending. One by one, each shop she visited and she got what she wanted. She went back home to out her stuff and she got out of the house again for a walk.
As she walked to the centre of Prontera...
"HELP!!! HELP!!"
Rhine quickly looked behind and found that it was a giant creature. Everyone started to run for their lives but Rhine was too shocked to move. Suddenly, a cloaked man grabbed hold of her arm and dragged her to a narrow alley between the buildings. It was considered safe from the attacks of the creature. Rhine was too shocked to say a thing when she was in the alley. At last, she managed to say something..
"Just who are-.."
The cloaked man used his finger and touched her lips. She immediately quiet down. In fact, that move looked familiar. Rhine looked through the alley and she was happy when her guild was there to fight the creature. The creature turned out to be the Knight of Windstorm and a gang of goblins. The goblins scared everyone away, while the MVP was creating swirls of icy- cold wind. Not only the =Kamikaze= guild was there (Rhine's guild), but Dragon Clan and Cross (Szeto's guild) was there to kill the MVP as well.
The battle began and the younger members of the guilds were losing their energy. Rhine ran towards them and casted some spells. The weakened ones were revived, and were ready to bring the monster down.
After a long and tedious battle, the monster was finally taken down. Rhine stood there and celebrated. She looked back at the person who saved her, but he was no longer there. She wanted to thank him, but he's gone now.
Rhine told the rest that she had to go home. Everyone bid her goodbye, and she walked home. As she walked, she noticed that she was followed by someone. She turned around, and no one was there. Then, she turned in front again.
"Don't try to hide anymore. Just come out and show yourself." Rhine uttered.
Deep silence..
"Well, it's fine if you don't want to show yourself. By the way, thanks for saving my life."
"You seem to have changed." The voice said.
Rhine was surprised. She looked behind her. It was a tall, cloaked figure. Rhine was startled. The person took off his helm and revealed.... Evan.
