Hey peeps! Sry it took so long, but I was writing another story for LOST.
Anyway, here's the last chapter. Enjoy! (Hopefully)
Chapter 3
Numair paced around his room. He knew something was wrong with Daine by the way the horses acted once Cloud came back. The problem was, he didn't know what. And she still hadn't come back. Then, he heard a banging on the door.
"Numair, are you in there!" A muffled voiced yelled. "The king wants to see all the mages for a meeting about what's going on in Scanra !"
Numair opened the door to find Alanna looking fairly annoyed. " I look everywhere and you're nowhere and... Numair what's the matter?" She asked seeing the worry lines etched in his face.
"Come in, I better tell you the whole story." He opened the door wider to admit the Lioness in. Once she sat down in one of the big chairs he took a deep breath and plunged into his explanation. From Daine confessing to Cloud, to Cloud coming back in a panic. "And I think I love her too." He finished. Then burst into what he had been holding back for so long. Tears. (a/n: Some of you are thinking Numair? Crying? Whoa! I was too.)
Alanna was astonished. The most powerful mage in the world. Crying? (a/n: Apparently she is too.) " We'll find her Numair, I promise." She said trying to comfort him. "I'll go tell the king what happened. Maybe he'll excuse you from the meeting."
"Thank you Alanna." Numair said. As she turned to leave he grabbed her by the arm." Wait, I would appreciate it if you didn't tell him about, you know, me crying."
"Of course."
"Thanks."
The next day the king held a meeting concerning Daine's disappearance. After about an hour of debating how to find her, Numair thought of something. "Excuse me!" When no one stopped talking he yelled "EXCUSE ME!" He yelled. Then everyone stopped talking and stared at him. He cleared his throat nervously. " Sorry about that, but, I have an idea." He blushed and showed a locket that was on his wrist to everyone. There was a picture of Daine And a lock of her hair inside. " It's a tracking device of sorts." Then blushed as again Alanna whispered to Thayet.
"It looks like more of a lovers token to me."
"Anyway it can tell us where she is instead of wasting looking everywhere."
"How do we know it will work?" Jon asked.
"See, that's the thing, we don't. We just have to trust it." Numair replied.
"How does it work?" Thayet asked.
"Like this." With that Numair closed his eyes and mumbled what had to be a word of power. Just then, an image of Daine in a tiny cell appeared in the air. There was also a riddle:
Deep in the depth where there is snow all year,
The king has the one who you hold dear.
" Snow all year. Hmm... Scanra! I bet King Maggur has Daine in one of his dungeons!" Alanna exclaimed.
King Jonathon turned pale. "Who knows what they could be doing to her. I want all my best knights and mages here in 10 minuets. Get Onua here too. She might be able to help with the mounted guards at the palace."
Within an hour after Jon briefed all the knights and mages on what was going to happen, everyone was ready to go.
