I am really sorry for not uploading for a while. I plan for this story to have at least 27 chapters plus the Glossary. If you want to, put your favorite character from the story that isn't Gregor or Luxa in your reviews and I'll try to put that character in more. I hope you find this chapter to take a big toll in the story. R&R!
Luxa opened her eyes to a knocking on the door. "Who is it?" She asked. "A messager from your fiancé," A man replied, "He wants to see you." Luxa clenched her fist. "Tell him I'm busy," She replied. "As you wish your highness," The man said.
Luxa went to her closet and picked out an outfit appropriate for training. She walked over to her nightstand and retrieved her sword, dagger, and sheath. She swung her sword and put it back in the sheath. She just hoped Gregor would be in the training field. If he was there, Gregor would probably be sparring Ripred again. Luxa left the room and headed for the training field.
She past the dining hall which Gregor's friend Larry was currently occupying. He gave Luxa a short wave and continued eating breakfast. She gave Larry a short nod and continued walking.
A little later she came upon Howard who was talking to a fellow doctor. Howard and the doctor exchanged a few words then the doctor left. Howard saw Luxa imediately. "So heading off to the training grounds are you? I heard that Lagnet is going to challange Gregor to a sparring match," Said Howard. Luxa shook her head. "That's not going to end well at all since Gregor's a rager," Luxa said. "Eh who cares you should get down there. Tell me what happens. I've got to run!" Howard replied and left.
I just don't know what I'm going to do about Lagnet. Luxa thought shaking her head. She looked around and walked of to the training fields.
Gregor's POV
Gregor watched as Ripred once again scolded a soldier for just getting one thing wrong. While he knew that he would be leaving Regalia soon for the quest, Gregor couldn't help but be excited about going on a quest again. After all it has been four years. Oh those were the good ol' days. "Hey you Warrior!" A man said from somewhere from which Gregor couldn't locate. "I challange you to a sparring match!" The man finished. Gregor looked around and spotted the man.
"I am Lagnet, Queen Luxa's fiance and to be king," The man said. Gregor took a good look at Lagnet. He looked about a few months older than Gregor, around six feet tall, and looked like an extremely determined man.
"I accept your challenge, Lagnet!" Gregor replied. The two got into possition as Luxa entered the training field. She ran over and sat on a bench to watch the match.
Gregor waited for his apponent to make a move. Lagnet ran forward and thrust his sword at him. He quickly dodged and swung his sword at Lagnet. Gregor's vision blurred for a second and then it was gone. He felt his rager sensation flow like it never had before. He moved so fast it was like he could dodge any attack and attack so fast. The world looked like it moved so slow.
Lagnet threw another swing at Gregor which was quickly blocked by Gregor's dagger. Gregor ran around Lagnet confusing him. Gregor kicked his opponent down to the ground and pointed his sword at Lagnet's throat. He yanked his sword up and helped Lagnet up.
"You are a worthy opponent, Warrior. I hope we may fight again," Lagnets said. Gregor nodded. "The Warrior is dead, just call me Gregor," Gregor replied. "Of course," Lagnet replied as he walked away.
Luxa stood up and walked over to Gregor. "Gregor you must be at the council room in an hour," Luxa said. "Ok. You'll be there right?" Gregor said hopefully. "Yes," Luxa said smiling. Luxa took another glance at Gregor and walked away.
Gregor couldn't help but think she was planning something but whatever it is it must be something of interest. Well since he had to go to a meeting he'd best get ready. With unhuman speed Gregor sprinted towards the newly built castle.
Ripred's POV
"Argh! Why can't you make a decent snack for me?!" Ripred scolded the cook. "Ripred. Why didn't you pick a cook who isn't a cook in training?" The cook shrieked. "Because they were all occupied at the time," Ripred said, "This a waste of time! Eh, I need to go to a meeting anyway." Ripred swung his tail and left the kitchen.
On his way to the council room, Ripred spotted Gregor walking through the halls. "Hey you Gregor get over here!" He called. "What Ripred?" Gregor asked. "Why don't you tell me about what Lizzie's been doing while we're on our way to the council room," Ripred said. "Okaaay..." Gregor replied.
About Five Minutes Later
Ripred and Gregor arived at the council room. Everyone was there accept for them. "Ah Ripred, Gregor we've been waiting," Galbotixor said, "We can now begin the meeting."
"We all know the groups so lets get on with the objective. Your target is Bluthtomb who we believe is the leader of the Crunchers. When he is killed head back to Regalia and prepare for an attack," Jaronix explained. "Thank you Jaronix," Galotixor said, "Dissmissed! You leave imediately." Ripred snorted.
Gregor's POV
As everyone walked down the halls, Gregor stuck to his friends. Everytime Luxa got near Angelina would pull Gregor away. "Gregor do you know what we'll expect out there?" Larry asked. "No. I've never been to the Uncharted lands," Gregor replied, "All I know is that we have to keep our guard on.l
Once everyone got to the arena, Gregor made sure nobody saw him and walked over to Luxa. "Luxa what are you planning?" Gregor said. "You'll see. Just come back to me all right?" Luxa replied. "Of cource." Gregor said.
"Gregor you'll be riding with me," Howard said. Gregor nodded and mounted Nike. Gregor watched as his friends mounted their bats. "Soldiers of Regalia take flight and protoct our home!" Perdita commanded.
The bats opened their wings and flung into the air. Right then and there Gregor thought. This quest has just begun.
Question- What do you think the quest will be like?
I'm VERY VERY EXTREMELY sorry for the long wait. Well good chapter! I think... Well who cares? I'm just glad Gregor and Lagnet are getting along. The hold up was because I've been trying to improve my writing skills. Why, because many people believe that my writing is practically a list and they're right. So, cookie for them! R&R!
