Quiet Burdens

Chapter Forty

(Wow 40 chapters)

(PS! HALF WAY THERE! (not really we're more at the home stretch) sort of kind of maybe)

Chapter Start!

Captain Trials walked down the long hallway, he paced up and down it.

"Why" he spoke "First Jaylen and Hector... now the Prince... What am I missing? Why do they keep going with him? Why did they go with the child of light?"

He looked around, then made his way to the science area, where Jaylen and Hector worked.

"The boys left because..." he thought, "The Queen broke her promise..."

He made his way around, then up to the great halls entry way, "The Prince left because... Well he's a sheltered Prince who wants to see the world..."

Trials looked around...

"Let's see who's in their group... The boys" he put a finger out for them, "The Prince" another finger, "Cole, Gil and Rita" three more... "who else... Gilbert hinted at more people... maybe-"

"SIR!" a voice called, and Captain Trials turned, "Captain! New Updates On The Child Of Light!" the small scout yelled running up to his captain.

"Yes speak"

"The water Gem has been taken! A-as well as the Steal Winds!" the man was out of breath.

"WHAT!?" Captain Trials screamed.

The other man shrunk, "The group seen taking them w-was the one with the C-child of light"

Captain Trials stopped, and looked at the man, then stopped to think...

"First the sword of Theo chooses its wielder... then the Gem of Water is given to its Chosen, as well as the Steal winds..." he stopped. "I must inform the Queen! We Have To Find The Other Artifacts!"

After the Queen was ready for him, Captain Trials told her what has happened, he informs her the ship they got on was heading up towards the Can Bell Hot springs.

She nodded, "That means they're going for the Earth one next... Set people up, and Tell the King of Harstar, he needs to know to watch out for this group, their taking all the Artifacts, and we don't know why, if they re hide them all again, then at would be trouble, but if they get them all, then, us two kingdoms, can team up, and take them, releasing Oswald and Theo, so they can take their revenge, and bring an age of prosperity to out two kingdoms."

She spoke, and Captain Trials obeyed, he left quickly to head over to the Capital of Harstar, after speaking to their King, he, and a few of the men from both kingdoms left to head up to the Hilda Mountains, to track down Cole and the team.

To put an end to their crusade.

~~~

Meanwhile with our heroes!

"Cole we're lost" Silvia spoke up "Aren't we?"

"What!? No!" he looked at the map they bought at the gift shop. "We should be popping out to see a town just around this corner!"

They walked around the corner.

"Maybe this map is wrong..."

Chapter End!

I'm sorry this was a short chapter, some family stuff came up, and we ended up having to go to the Hospital.

So I'll be back to the normal 800-1200 word chapter next week! (This chapter was around 460 words)

Anyways whenever I fell sad or something, I search up this old show my parents like to watch, and look at the funniest moments, why?

Because of the Poor actor who had to play Ralph

(Yes this character has the same name as my Ralph)

Anyways check it out, the show came out in the 70s or 80s, and it's really cute! It's called (Is you want to look it up later) "The Greatest American Hero" yeah, that's a name they can't send to other countries! XD
