Chapter 1 - What!?!?

This is set after ep 89, except the necklace and the pendent didn't combine.

Aphmau POV

I woke up to a banging on my door, I ran down stairs so the banging didn't wake up Levin, Malachi or Zoey. I opened the door to see Garroth out of breath. "Lord.... Aphmau.... Katelyn.... Is"

"Garroth slow down! What's wrong!?"

"Katelyn is at the guard tower unarmed, unguarded and wishes to speak with you, me, Laurence and Dante!"

As soon as he said that, I ran to the guard tower only to see Katelyn sitting at the table with Laurence standing behind her. I looked into her eye's and saw that they were swimming with fear and sadness. "Lord Aphmau, I know right now I am not trusted, but I don't deserve your trust. At least not yet." Katelyn finally said breaking the silence.

"Katelyn why did you come here?" I said calmly, sitting down across from her.

"Firstly, to apologise, for docking here in the first place. Secondly to tell you a few things."

"Ok, go ahead."

"First is that..." Katelyn starts tearing up "I just heard that Jeffery the Golden Heart was... Killed by Zane... He had a daughter who he cared about and Zane just!!!"

"Katelyn, are you ok?" Laurence asked putting his sword away and putting his hand on her shoulder.

"I'm fine, it's just I was really good friends with him and it's just really upsetting.... um.... the second thing I want to tell you is that I've quit my place as a jury of nine member. This is because I'm tired of working as Zane's puppet."

"Puppet??" We all asked in union.

"Yes! Understand that both me and Jeffery were never working with Zane but we did our part in making him think we were. The armour that I gave you, I had to steal before Zane could make more and now I give you this."

She handed Garroth a Divine Diamond Sword, Laurence a Divine Emerald Sword, Dante Divine Katana's and me a Necklace Of Irene (A protective necklace made by Lady Irene). I read about them in a book that Emmalyn gave me. (Just Pretend she did)

"Katelyn, this is too much" I said.

"No you deserve it. I better go."

Laurence put his sword at her throat. I think to stop her from leaving "you can't leave! Where would you go?"

"It doesn't matter where," Katelyn whispered, pushing his sword down. "I don't deserve to stay."

"Yes you do!" I yelled before she could open the door.

"Lord Aphmau..."

Before she could finish her sentence I quickly interrupted her "Katelyn you have done more than enough to deserve to stay! I insist you stay because you wont be welcome in O'khasis. You can stay in my spare room for tonight."

I saw her serious face turn into a smile "Thank you Lord Aphmau. This is much appreciated." 

After that me and Katelyn said goodnight to Laurence, Dante and Garroth and headed to my house. I directed her to the spare room and then we both went to bed.

------------- THE NEXT DAY ------------

I woke up the next day and looked at the clock. It was 10:30AM!!!!!! I had been in bed for 3 more hours than I was supposed to!!! When I went down stairs I saw that there was a note on the table by some Pancakes. The note read:

Dear Lord Aphmau,

I woke up this morning to see Levin and Malachi sitting at the table and Zoey vomiting. I told her why I was here then took her to her room. She said that she think she caught whatever Cadenza had so I took Levin and Malachi to one of the other mothers in the village, just so you'er not panicking.

I hope you don't mind, but I want to build my own house. I'll stick with your style and find a place where there are no projects being built. Thank you once again.

Katelyn.

That stuck in my mind all while I was eating. The fact that Katelyn voluntarily helped Zoey and took my sons to one of the mothers of the village. I decided that I was first going to see who had Levin and Malachi, then see where Katelyn was building. As I was about to leave, when Garroth Knocked on my door. "Good morning Lord Aphmau, How are you today?" Garroth asked softly.

Something about his voice is really attractive. Then I realised that I was staring at Garroth. "Um... Sorry Garroth, just lost in thought... Come in."

Garroth came in and closed the door behind him. He's so polite and thoughtful. Then I realised I was doing it again but this time he didn't realise. "Lord Aphmau, first thing is that the builders have started a few projects, one being the wall. Also Katelyn and Laurence are building a house for Katelyn and Donna and Logan."

"That's great! Anything else?"

"Um... well Levin and Malachi are at Kiki's barn in case you'er wondering. But apart from that I think.... Oh wait, Katelyn told me to tell you that you can use her boat if you ever need it.... Um Lord Aphmau... Um if you want... D-do y-you want to go for a walk in the Forrest...?"

"Um.... Sure..."

I can't believe that he was asking me this, I secretly thought it as a date but I didn't say anything because I'm too afraid to say I'm in love with him.

Garroth POV

She said yes! I can't Believe she said yes! Ok Garroth be cool. I took her in to the Forrest and to a spot where it was just me and her. I saw her look around the area mainly at the five lilacs I had planted, just for her. She finally looked at me and I grabbed her hands. "Um... Lord Aphmau... There's something I need to tell you."

I was about to tell her how I felt, when 5 portals opened and a girl came out of each one...

That's Chapter 1 I hope you enjoyed it. See you in chapter 2.
