Chapter 26: Elves
Raphael finally calmed down and looked around the room. He sighed, sitting down on his bed and then looked toward the door hoping in a way that Cornelia would walk through at any time. He knew he was dreaming though, why would the guardian want to talk to him after he threw her onto the bed. He stood up and then went over to the door and opened it up to see his father there. "Dad, where is Cornelia?" Raphael asked with a raised brow.
Malkira straightened his collar at looked into his sons eyes. "She is where she would have ended up originally. She has no place here or with you. You know very well that our alliance is with Phobos and no guardian will change that. You know the plan, so don't ruin this for your own family." Malkira then walked away from Raphael calmly and collectively.
Raphael knew that he should be loyal to his family but he didn't want to see the guardian die. There was just something about her that caused the ruthless vampire in him to just disappear. He had never felt this way about anyone. Someone has already gone to tell Phobos that they are ready and that's when it hit him. 'We will be told the night before when they will kill the guardian.' That's when he knew he had to make his move despite what his family has said.
Taranee and the others had just arrived in the other world. Taranee relaxed knowing that they are in a safe place. "Ok everyone, I know this place and it's as safe as can be here." Everyone else then relaxed and followed Taranee toward the big beautiful castle. Once they arrived, the guards recognized Taranee and let the group in. Once they were inside, they walked to the throne room. Once there, they walked in and bowed in front of the elf sitting on his throne. He said something unrecognizable to all but Taranee and Elyon. "caelai Aerti cyrn cali o shael." The others looked over to Elyon with confusion.
"Don't worry about, just let them talk, besides, I'm still learning their language. If you must know though, Taranee just asked how Aerti is doing." Elyon said though she understands the first line.
Aerti smiled at Taranee and responded. "(I've been Fine.)Ai'bi shael tholi. (Now what is it you need Taranee?)Byrn shar air air o baer Sasali?" Aerti asked with a smile.
Taranee had to admit that she is happy to be back here talking with Aerti. "(We need some help.) Shi baer mysti caer. (Phobos is gathering an army, could you join us?) Vyrdyr air karaesol eil eisia, tyr o byl iar?" Taranee asked with high hopes.
Aerti frowned sadly and then gave Taranee his reply. "(I would but I have troubles of my own here.) Ai shyr sher Ai cali syrdaer os tia orn caesi. (The Dark Elves have been causing trouble for my Kingdom.) Si Pas Aelaer cali shael tarol syrdi thys tia Colys. (If you help control the Dark Elves, then I will gladly join you.) Ais o caer tylyr si Pas Aelaer, sael Ai shor kadia byl o." Aerti said as his family walked in.
Taranee thought about this and knew that they didn't really have a choice. Taranee sighed and then nodded. "(Ok, We will help you.) Ol shi shor caer o. (Where are the dark elves?) Shaesi eisi si pas aelaer?" Taranee saw as Aerti pointed north out the window.
"(They live north past the dark forest.) Si jholi bys var si pas thysaer. (It's a dangerous place so please be careful.) Air'r ei palaesyr vali mai vaeri shi tasaerer." Aerti said worriedly. He then called in some guards and asked them to go get some items. They soon returned and handed the items to Aerti. "(Take these enchanted bow and arrows for your journey.) Saji saeri aelalaer shyrn eil eisyrn thys os bysi. (I give you and your friends' permission to wield these weapons but only your friends.) Ai koli o eil os thol vaesorol sai shor saeri shaedyl sher olia os thol. (They will enhance your powers.) Si shor aelali os vyrdaes." Aerti then handed them to the group.
"(Thank you Aerti.) Sal o Eisai." Taranee and the group then left and headed for the dark forest.
'(Good luck my friend.) Kyr jhes tia thol.' Aerti said and then went back to work worriedly.
"So Taranee, when did you learn to speak Elf?" Hay Lin asked as they flew through the air, arrows in their holster and bows resting on their bodies.
"I had to, the Oracle asked me to a long time ago. He wanted me to learn the language of all those that will fight with us." Taranee said keeping her eyes focused on their goal. "I've learned a lot of different languages but only because my powers have boosted my ability to learn such languages. It did take a lot of time to learn all the languages but it was well worth it. It's really kind of cool because then I can complain about things and people wont have a clue what I'm saying plus most think it's just gibberish anyway." Taranee said with a big smile on her face which faded quickly. "My only question is when did Phobos have time to ever go between worlds. None of it makes any sense." Taranee said landing in front of the evil forest. "Get yourselves ready for anything." The group lifted their bows off their shoulders and grabbed an arrow in one hand.
Back on earth, Will and Matt were just finishing up their talk. "Will, I'm just glad that you're ok and let's hope that the baby will be fine but never do that again." Matt chuckled a bit.
"Why aren't you angrier with me?" Will said as Matt wrapped his arms around Will.
"I am but getting angry won't do you any good." Matt smiled and then gave her a small peck on her lips and then stood up. "I have a few more things to do, so just relax and don't think of the girls ok." Will nodded and then Matt left to do some errands.
A/N: So I did the best I could with the elf language. I hope it turned out ok. Thanks for the reviews and please continue to review. Hope you enjoyed the chapter.
