Ch7: assassination attempt. Hey guys and girls. This chapter is going to be good, sorry it took so long, I was sleeping on a cool tugboat called the Covington inn. It was quiet. I recommend it. With the first day of school too. I didnt really have time until now, sorry. Lets read.

Trellis kept starring at the hand. But he didn't hesitate, he forced the king back, and the guards pointed their spears at him. That's when the commander of their guard stepped up.

"I don't think you were told, but this is a surrendering mission. The elves are surrendering to you." He said as Trellises eyes widened at the words he couldn't believe. Emily walked over.

"We are sorry, but the king deserved at the very least that for his terrible crimes!" She yelled remembering it was him who sent the aracnipod to poison his mother."So, why have you come to surrender?" She asked as Krasis walked forward.

"I am the ambassador for gulfen. Trellis and I were friends, but he probably doesn't remember me, I remember him though. And I'm glad that he has a side to fight for. Anyway, we are losing this war, we might as well surrender before anymore lives were lost." He said waving his hand out to Trellis. He slapped it and walked away. Emily followed him. They ended up in their room and sat on the bed

"Trellis, I know that you hate your father more than anything, but he's going to pay for what he did." She said as he looked at her.

"I'm sorry, but I hate what the stone did to him. I hate what he's become. Ever since he was my age. Still, I am sorry I freaked out." He said as she kissed him.

"It's okay Trellis, I understand how it feels to see someone you hate. Lets get this over with and forget it ever happened." She said as he smiled and kissed her back.

"Okay, Emily. I'll get through this. I promise." He said as she smiled. They went to the council chamber where it was going to be held.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

They proceeded with the papers it was taking a long time. That's when Trellis noticed that the captain of the guard was missing. He left and looked around the hall. Suddenly. A figure jumped out of a room with a dagger and tried to stab Trellis, but he dodged it and swiped back, it was just the elf he was looking for. He held him up and pushed him against the wall.

"Who sent you?!" He yelled.

"I'll never tell, but lets just say that the elf king has a surprise in mind for your precious wife." He said as Trellis knocked him out. He ran towards the chamber and saw the king about to stab Emily.

"EMILY, LOOK OUT!" He yelled as Emily dodged the dagger and flung the king down, the elves started to attack and led the king out. The two stonekeepers ran out side and saw the ship leave the the dock and an attack ship with guns aimed at them. They both destroyed it. And tried to grab the kings ship, but he was to far out of range. They returned to the building.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

It was late at night and they were both In their room and Emily was on Trellises chest and they were talking about what happened just hours ago.

"Do you want to talk about it?" She asked.

"No, I knew he couldn't be trusted. It's okay though, I'm just glad I got there before he got you with that knife." He said.

"Yeah...thank you for saving my life Trellis." She said kissing him. He kissed back. They kissed themselves to sleep. And stayed in that position all night.
