Chapter 18
"We got no time. Let's teleport there!" Y/n exclaimed
"We can't directly teleport there." Alexandria spoke.
"What? Why?"
"Because it is protected with spells which won't let us teleport there." Alexandria explained.
"We have to walk from the woods. We can teleport till the woods!" Taehyun exclaimed
They teleported and stopped out of the 'Orb's womb' which was a huge deep forest.
"EVERYONE! Stay together. Help each other and DONT DARE TO FIGHT!" Taehyun commanded and everyone nodded as he was the eldest and most respected guardian.
Everyone started to walk deep into the jungle being as quick as possible to not waste any moment.
"Alright just a bridge and we will be right in track!" Lizzy cheered.
"B-Bridge? What bridge?" Alexandria asked.
"That one." Eunwoo pointed.
"A-Are you m-mad!?" Alexandria asked. "I am not crossing that! Go die. I am not gonna die!"
"Oh come on! We need to be quick!" Taehyun told.
"You know I cannot cross a bridge! You know I am scared of bridges right!"
"You are big now! That was an old thing! You can do it!" Lizzy tried to encourage her.
"I will stay here."
"I'll help you?" Robert asked.
She just looked away. "No Thanks."
"You know we might need you and its our duty to protect the prince! I'll hold your hand till we cross the bridge." Robert spoke again. She just nodded.
"Okay. Its a good idea. Hold someone's hand and cross the bridge." Taehyun commanded.
"I am protecting Y/n or Gukk told he will start killing people with my execution. I don't want him to get up and shout 'HANG THIS BANANA MILKLESS HYUNG TO DEATH!" Eunwoo walked and stood beside Y/n.
"I am with Alexandria as she is scared." Robert stood beside Alexandria.
Taehyun and Lizzy looked at each other for a few seconds.
He moved towards Lizzy and grabbed her hand.
"Yah! Let go!" Lizzy shouted.
"We dont have time! Gukkie is on the verge of dying!" He held her hand tightly and walked first holding Lizzy and leading everyone, followed by Eunwoo and Y/n then Robert and Alexandria.
"Baby steps?" Robert smiled at Alexandria who's face clearly had pure fear.
Taehyun fearlessly pulled Lizzy and reached the end of the bridge. After reaching the end Lizzy pulled back her hand harshly, which internally broke his heart but he just looked away ignoring that on the outside.
"Y/n you are not scared?" Eunwoo asked.
"Gukkie is in trouble. What can be more scary?" she passed a small sad smile and he nodded sadly. They reached the end of the bridge.
Alexandria was taking baby steps and crossing the bridge because she remembers the last time she was playing around a bridge with Jeongukk about 10 years ago. The bridge broke and she was gonna fall but he saved her from falling and that is how they became friends. She was still scared of the memories, she had of the breaking of bridge because Gukk got a little hurt in the process.
They were good friends but later when Alexandria told Jeongukk that his father was in the human world as she over heard someone speak about that, he went in search of his father and got into problem. He was attacked when he was 6. That is why no one ever let him leave the castle again.
She blamed herself for that and from that day she avoided him and was rude to him. Slowly they became enemies. Even though she cared about him, she never actually showed it on the outside and continued to be mean to everyone to avoid chaos caused by her.
Robert held her hand tight but the bridge started to shake a little. Alexandria shouted out loud.
"Nooo! We are dying!!! Ahhh!"
"Shhuuu! Its okay!" He tired to calm her down.
"No! No! Leave me and go! We are a-are gonna die!"
"We are not!" Robert picked her up in his arms and walked calmly till the end of the bridge. They got down.
"Thankyou-"
"Your welcome!" Robert smiled.
"I did not complete... 'Thankyou?' Don't expect that from me." she rolled her eyes and walked forward.
He just chuckled and followed her.
After walking for some more time they reached a narrow alley where a river was flowing with a great speed.
"We need a boat!" Eunwoo exclaimed.
"No we don't." Alexandria and Robert exclaimed together.
"Right!"
"Left!"
The used their powers and made a path for them to walk between the water. The walked from between the river. It looked magnificent.
With in few minutes they reached the part where the waterfall began so they jumped out of that path and stood near the waterfall.
"We are here...."
"Its just behind the valley! All we need is to cross the wall, find the Pegasus and save our gukkie!"
"Where do you think you are going kids? You won't get what you are here for! Right love?"
To be continued....
