Chapter 3:
The village, while looking small, had a lot of homes in it. A lot creatures roamed the little village, each one stopping to stare at me. I wasn't surprised. They'd probably never seen a human before, but I still felt nervous.
Finally we made it to the center of town, where three of the beast stood. One looks at, and then points to me, and the one who had his back to me turns around.
He was taller than the rest. Dressed in much more colorful and neater looking cloths and he wore a crown of feathers on his head.
"Your awake." He comments with a smile.
" And you must be the leader of this village." I reply.
"Let me guess, your confused and have a few questions." He said in a monotone voice.
"Yes, I very much am." I respond. "And my first question is, where am I? Secondly, who are you? And third, how did I get here?"
He gave a polite chuckle and a warm smile. "Yes, of course. You've probably never seen this world before. You are in the dragon realm, more specifically Peace Valley. That's what we call our small home."
"Yes I know it's an uncreative name, but it atleast live up to it." He said sitting down on the foutant behind him. "As for who I am. My name Gnin, and I am the chief of this village of peaceful Gnorc."
"Gnorc?" I asked.
"That's the name the dragons gave to us." He replied. " As for how you got here well.." he point to the Gnorc next to me. "Gnic can probably explain that to you."
I turned to look at him. He looked down at the ground as he nervously shuffled his feet. "I uh… Saw da portal open. I wondered what was on da other side an' uh.. Grabbed you by accident. I was gonna put you back but then you scream, and then I scream, and uh.. I dropped you.. Sorry.."
'Well that explains the bump.' I thought as I rubbed the back of my. "No thats.. Alright. You didn't mean to." I then looked back at the chief. "And thank you for.. Letting me rest up and explaining what happened. I hope you don't mind me asking, but may I have a look at your village before I go home?"
"Not at all. It's been awhile since we've had a visiter, much less a human. Gnic, why don't you show her around."
Peace Valley was a quiet and happy little place. The Gnorcs I came across stopped and instead of staring decided to say hello. They were so friendly and inviting I felt at home.
"Ya know…" Gnic said. "We ah.. Neveh' learn your name."
"Oh I'm Fayra." I respond politely. "I'm sorry I forgot to introduce myself."
"Oh no it's ah.. Alright, a lot has happened since you showed up-" Of course not paying attention to where he was going, Gnic ran into a stack of hay stack along with the Gnorc sitting on top of them began to tumble.
I painiced. Everything seemed to slow down as he fell, and I don't know why, but my instinct I put my hands out and..
A blue aura surrounded him. It kept and the hay bales around him stuck in mid air. I was confused. I glanced down at my hands, and they had the same blue aura around them too.
I guess I caught him.
"How are you doing that?" Gnic said, staring in awe.
"I.. Have no idea." I respond
I slowly lowered my hands, and then let go. He still hit the ground, but a three inch fall is better than a 6 foot fall. "Sorry."
Somewhere off in the distance, three gnorc minions stood. Having seen what just happened the 'smarter' of the two speaks. "You's guys, me thinks we've found da girl da boss has been looking for."
"I dunno, are you sure she's da right one? I thoughts we were lookin' for a kid?"
"How many humans do we know that have magic powers dummy?" The third responds.
"Well those two kids..-"
"Shaddup!" The leader of the trio responds. Bashing him over the head. "Now let's go report to da boss."
