This is the first part to the Chapter

Outsiders.

"Moth-...." I say startled.

"No need to call me that Cassandra," she said kindly to me."

"But how?" I ask seriously confused. I mean how did she get here?

"All in good time, all in good time." Said Elkheim with a smile, "Now, we must show you around the city, but it is imperative that no one knows your true identity."

"Oh," is all I can manage as I think of my newfound title and responsibility. But my thoughts lighten as I think of the fact that I get to explore "Jason's" city.

"Now don't take it the wrong way, we are very glad to have our Queen back but if price knew who you were we would not be able to breath."

With that we set off down the main road taking in all the sites. It was truly amazing, better than what I had first saw when we entered it. It seemed to go forever. The architecture was absolutely stunning,There were marble fountains and and white columns. And don't get me started on the homes in the trees. They wrapped all around the trunks going up. When you were at the top of one like I was now it gave you the sense that you were on top of the world. Even though ironically we were underground.

"Hey Cass," Atticus says softly coming up behind me as I stare off at the city.

"Hey Atty" I say smiling at him.

"It's kinda weird I have to admit," he says blushing a little.

"What's weird?" I ask as I scrunch my eyebrows together and confusion.

"Well, I guess it's the fact that I feel like I can't talk to you anymore." He says" I mean like your a.... Queen and I'm, well an orphan."

I turn slowly and look him in the eyes," Atticus no matter what happens to me, you can ALWAYS talk to me. Besides, in this crazy world we just got thrown into I wouldn't be surprised if you become someone great, so of legend." I finish quietly.

"Wow, I mean I am pretty awesome" he smirks as I role my eyes." But I guess I just forgot that, thanks for helping me remember."

"So about this crazy world were living in" I say smiling. " What do you think is going to happen next?"

"Well I'm not exactly sure but one thing I know, is that this is just the beginning." Atticus says grabbing my hand. I look over and stare into his emerald green eyes. He leans forward and so do I. I close my eyes and I feel His hand around my arm.

Atticus's P.O.V.

As I lean forward to kiss her the I think of all the times I've wanted to do it but didn't. 'Humph, well better late than never I supose' I thought wryly. Then I hear a bang as the door to the chamber is thrown open... Jason. 'What is he doing here?'

"Ummm, am I interrupting something?" He asks giving me a suspicious look.

"No not at all what do you need?" Cass replies nervously with a blush.

"Well, Elkheim has asked for your presence."

"What is up with his name anyways?" I ask

"Have you not heard of the eternal race?" He says looking at me with disgust.

"No, I have not actually." I say.

"The Eternal race is a very special group of people but sadly there aren't too many left. Elkheim is one of them. The Eternal race obviously live forever, well that is unless they are slain in battle. They are also magic users. Elkheim is one of the last that have not left or died. Now come! We must make haste to him. For being so old he does not dawdle." Jason says in a huff throwing Cass a small smile as he walks out the door beckoning him to follow.
