Chapter 10: Welcome to Cait shelter
"Where am I" I spoke.
The old man then spoke up "why your in the cait shelter guild young one".
"Guild...what's a guild"? I asked
"It's a place where wizards come together and take on jobs and quest for money, it's basically like work in way". He explained
He then began to walk closer and spoke "my name is Roubal and I am the master of this guild, I will explain everything if you come with me".
As he came closer and closer I freaked out did a somersault out of the bed and leaped through the window and took off running.
"No wait hold on" Roubal yelled but I didn't listen
I ran as fast as I could, confused and scared I didn't know where I was why I was there and how. One thing for certain I needed to find Yubel.
"MOM" I shouted " Yubel where are you" but no answer I Thought where could she be my thoughts were interrupted when I heard the voices of some people. I turned to look and saw a couple of strangers wearing native clothing and they were walking towards me.
"Hey kid just take it easy we don't want to hurt alright" a man with no shirt wearing tribal pants who was bald and had a wolf tattoo on his arm said as he approached me.
I was to scared to listen to him so instead I raised my leg and kicked him right in between his legs and then he let out a scream in pain. I then did a front flip over his body and brushed passed the others.
"Stay away from me I shouted" and kept on running.
I then decided to activate my wings and take flight into the air after I was airborne for about 12 seconds my wings suddenly stopped and then I could feel myself plummeting back towards the ground. Right before I hit the ground I felt somebody catch me in their arms and then sat me down I looked up and saw that it was the same man from before.
I quickly got out of his grasp and backed up a few feet away from him and took out my dagger ready to defend myself.
"Stay back I'm warning you" I shouted.
I was then surrounded by other people I was gonna have to fight my out of this one I thought.
"Alright that's enough everybody back away and give the child some space" a voice said.
I looked and I saw that it was the same old man from before Roubal. Along with him was a young woman in her mid twenties she wore a green long native tribal dress had blue eyes and black hair tied in a ponytail. Show wore brown sandals and wore a ring around her ankles.
She stepped forward and spoke "sweety don't be afraid we want to help".
Something about her voice eased my worries and made me feel safe it was charming and was filled with such warmth, kind of like the feeling when I snuggled up into Yubel's feathers. For a minute I was tranced but then I snapped out of it and the. Tried to brush past her but she quickly grabbed me and I struggled to get loose. She was strong. I kicked and I screamed but nothing worked.
"Sweety calm down calm down we won't hurt you" she. Spoke softly trying to calm me down.
An Hour later
I was back in the same room I woke up in none of this made any sense why was I here and how and where was Yubel. Suddenly my thoughts were interrupted by the door opening and in walked three people Roubal and the man and woman I met before. I jumped out of bed and tried to make another run for it but the guy got to me first and grabbed my arm.
"No no no take it easy little fella okay".
I started to feel tears in my eyes
"I wanna go home" I said
Roubal then spoke up "I know child I don't blame you for being suspicious at all but trust me when I say you are safe here and we just want to help you".
After a minute I could feel that he was telling the truth and so the. I calmed down a bit and the man let me go.
"Now then let's try this again" he spoke "as I said before my name is Roubal the master of this guild".
And these two here are some of the guild mates the men stepped up and said
"What's buzzin lil cuzzin my name Keanu" he introduce himself.
The lady then stepped up and introduced herself " hello I'm Lupita it's nice to meet you" she gave me warm sweet smile making me blush.
I then spoke up and said " nice to meet you all I'm Zodie, Zodie McKnight
Keanu spoke up and said "hey that's a cool name lil dude, zodie, zodiac, lil zz" is it cool if I. CAll you lil z" he askedl.
"Uh sure" i shrugged. I shoulders.
"Now then my boy after all that I'm sure you hungry here" Lupita. Am over with a tray of food for me
"There you go honey eat right up". She smiled
I felt my stomach rumble Roubal was right I could go for some food
Then grabbed the food with my hands and started chowing down on it not because I was hungry but because I've been in the wilderness for so long I haven't used a fork or any type of silverware for a year now.
Kenau ran in and stopped me and said " wow wow ther man lets maybe use a fork okay" he said as he handed me a fork I looked at it weird it fel to strange to hold one of these again it's been so long.
"Don't worry I'll show Zodie" Lupita spoke you grab it here dip bring it up into your mouth and bite down she said.
I did what she instructed and grasped the concept after I finished eating I drank a cup of water.
"Ahh yummy that was good" thanks Lupita I said.
"Your welcome zodie"she replied
Roubal then stepped in "Now Zodie I have to ask where did you come from"
Then Keanu asked " yeah I remover you saying Yubel who is that?
Okay I'll tell you but it's a long story
Minutes later
Zodie had explained everything to him the passing of his parents and his brother and the existence of Yubel a Phoenix he meant and raised him he had tears in his eyes after explaining that she abandoned him.
"Oh dear you poor thing Lupita said as she comforted me I. A warm hug I hugged her back harrying my face I. Her stomach Keanu cameo over and patted me on the head.
Roubal then spoke "I see so now you don't have anywhere to go then child"
I nodded yes
"Well then how bout you become a member of cait shelter then you'll make lots of friends and have all sorts of fun".
Keanu stepped in ln "yea it"ll be fun plus after telling us about your magic and stuff I wanna see more your really full of potential. He said ecstatically.
I thought about it for a while, I mean I didn't really have anywhere else to go and these people were nice I then finally made my decision.
"Okay then I'll join" I said with a smile on my face s
"Splendid "Roubal spoke Lupita could you go and get the stamper for this young man" Roubal spoke.
"Of course master" Lupita left the room and came back with stamper that had the cait shelter guild mark on it.
She approached me and then asked "what color would you like and which color"
I looked at each color and then spoke "can I have mine in gold on my right arm" I asked.
Of course she replied she then stamped me and there it was I had my guild mark I did a muscle flex to show it off making everybody in the room laugh
Few hours later
I was standing on a stage alongside master Roubal in front of the rest of the cait shelter guild mates.
"Listen up everyone today we receive a new member this is Zodie McKnight and we will be staying here from now on make him feel welcomed here he said"
Soon everybody cheered everybody was so warm and welcoming it felt nice it made me feel better than I did when I thought about Yubel. I was introduced to new faces I haven't been around people since I met Yubel so it was a little awkward but I'd get used to it.
After the introductions were over master Roubal walked up to me "say zodie that reminds me there is also another member here that's around your age you should come say hello to her" he spoke.
"Wendy could you come here please" he said
Then I saw a girl walking toward us she was the same age as me she had short blue hair and was wearing a short sleeve shirt and blue shorts and had large brown eyes.
"Roubal then spoke up Wendy this is our new member Zodie McKnight Zodie this is Wendy Marvell".
"Hello, it's nice to meet you" she spoke in a soft cut e voice one that made me blush a bit.
"He….we...hello" I said
"You to get along nicely now" Roubal said.
This was a little overwhelming for me I never talked to a girl before other than my mom or Yubel but this was different, but I knew that I could get through this though, hopefully.
Night time
Roubal showed me to my bed where I'd be sleeping it was a long day and I couldn't wait for tomorrow what will the world bring.
"Get some rest kiddo all great wizards need they're sleep to be strong"
"Okay master goodnight" I told him he nodded and then left.
I got under my covers and it felt good not like yubel's feather but still it was good. I still was curious where was Yubel and why did she leave I had to find out but for now it was time to sleep I'm sure Yubel would want me to rest up anyway. This was my life now and like Yubel told me that she would always be with me always.
And done yes yes yes zodie is now in cait shelter and has met Wendy his second steep in life is beggining if you guys have anu ideas plz leave your reviews
