I followed Sander through the tree tops, jumping from tree to tree. Uncle Ramos ran on the forest floor. I enjoyed some danger every once in awhile.

"We should be very close to my village by now!" Sander said

I nodded. The forest around me was filled with sound. Birds were chirping and animals scurrying across the ground. But what I reeaallyy wanted to do was smite something through the gut. It was my choice to be who I was. But Sander put a arm out, stopping me.

I stopped, gripping a tree branch. A elf village lied out before us. The roofs were wood while the houses were stone. Elves rushed around the village and sounds of metal work and the twang of bow strings echoed out of it.

"Stay here while I go speak with the elders." Sander said

I nodded. He leaped from the trees and swiftly headed to the village. I leaped from the tree I was in, landing beside my uncle. Dova lied on the ground next to Pyro, speaking softly to each other.

"Kylie, are you OK?" Uncle Ramos asked

I nodded. To be honest, time was ticking. It was only a matter of time. The pains that I felt only got stronger as Golden Boy became effected more and more by the dark magic. It was as if they were tearing me apart from the inside. But I was so used to them now, I barely even felt them anymore.

But it felt as if the journey I am on is endless. The minutes ticking by slowly. I don't have the patience for all the stops! But if this is what it took to save my friend, I would do it. Devil leaped out of backpack, beginning to clean herself. I leaned back against the tree and sighed.

So much has happened in such a short amount of time. I feel that I'll be an old person by the time this journey ends.

"Sister Kylie, I must speak to you in private." Dova said

I nodded and followed Dova. Once we were far enough, Dova looked at me, his face expressionless.

"What is it?" I asked

"I understand how you must be feeling right now. Not everything can be explained." Dova said

"I already know that." I said

"But you must not be so hasty with decisions." Dova said in a stingy voice. "Or it could be incredibly dangerous."

I huffed. Being who I was already put enough weight on my shoulders, but I felt as if the whole world was on my shoulders.

"Dova, why do you tell me this?" I asked

"I'm warning you. Fate is in your hands." Dove snorted

"Fine, I'll heed it." I said

Suddenly, I heard the bing of an arrow hitting a shield. I hurried back to Uncle Ramos, Dova following close behind me. I heard Pyro's roar. He sounded frustrated. I arrived back to Uncle Ramos and caught an arrow before it hit me.

"Don't move." Someone said

I felt the cold metal of a sword against my back, the tip close to piercing my skin. I instantly swung around and brought out my daggers, deflecting the blade. I grunted as I was thrown back. An elf had its sword drawn. Another appeared, bow ready to fire. I felt my Uncle Ramos come back to back with me.

Devil scurried up my leg, to my backpack.

"Dang it Sander! What's taking you!" I thought

Suddenly, a evil laugh rang out. I noticed that these elves were emitting a dark aura of magic. I stood my ground. Then, Prince Lucas appeared, cloaked in black and blood red. Devilish wings spread out. He worked with the dark wizard!

How could I not sense his aura! I scowled.

"We've got you now Kylie Romo." He chuckled evilly
