My own legend
He got up and started walking further into the forest. I know it was strange, he was a stranger but he knew my name. He knew how i felt. I feel like following him. I run up next to him and hold my hands behind my back smiling.
'So where we going mister'
I see the corner of his mouth curve but he doesn't say anything. Instead he starts to run. I start to chase after him and shouted hey but stopped when he fell flat on his face. I didn't help him but I fell to the floor laughing. He was a funny person.
'I-Iksu...y-you keep falling over! Ha-ha' *laughing
'Hehe it hurt too' *rubbing head
'So then are we going?'
'Yeah we are'
He gets up and starts running again. I chase after him.
'Iksu are you sure it's a good idea if you run!'
'It will be alright i won't fall-
*Slam
.......................................
We finally made it to the end of the forest, but Iksu did fall over quite a few times as well, resulting with me on the floor laughing my head off. We were both covered in dirt by then.
I help Iksu off the floor again and look up at the great waterfall in front of me. It was beautiful, it seemed like it was out of this world. I run ahead leaving Iksu behind and stood in awe as I watched the ripples of the water. I had never seen anything like this before.
'So you like it?'
I look behind me and saw that Iksu was there smiling at me.
'Yes it's amazing, but why did you bring me here?'
'Ah I wanted to tell you something of your own legend'
'My own-
I think back to what my mother had told me and stopped speaking. I look down at the ground and clenched my fists. How does he know and why does he know.
'How-
'I am a messenger of god; I only tell you what I have been told'
*stares
'Errm by any chance are you a ....priest?'
'Yes'
He walks to the edge of the path to where the river is and sits on the edge. He pats the space next to him. I smile slightly and sit next to him.
'So then since you're the priest you mind telling me my future'
*Looking up 'I do not tell the future but I do know something that may help you with your journey'
'You do...'
He looks at me and smiles.
'Yes I am sure you know who the red dragon is already-
'Errm no....'
'Oh right of course you don't, it is Princess Yona'
Wait what does that mean. How can Yona be a dragon, someone meant to protect me? No that can't be true can it? How does he know her? Is it because he a priest?
'What....'
'Oh yes you don't know that either, i live with Yun, the person who helped you, I have already told your friends about the legend to do with You and the princess'
'You did....what did they say'
'They said they will leave with you in a day or two'
'W-we will...'
They accept it. They really do they don't care about the fact that I'm a...monster. I'm sorry mother I know what I am; I can't call myself anything but a monster. I look up at Iksu again and this time his face looked worried and confused, he reached out a hand and placed it on my shoulder. Why was he doing that?
'P-princess... please don't cry'
Wait I'm crying...I touch my cheeks and feel that they are wet; tears started falling down my hands. Why was i crying? I looked up at Iksu and tried to smile but failed.
'I-I'm sorry I-
'It's ok I know how you must feel'
All of a sudden tears started falling down his face. He took his hand off my shoulder and covered his face. I could hear loud sobs. Why was he crying?
'I-Iksu why are you crying'
'I-I *sob it's just it's so sad *sob how can a young girl your age go through all of that and *sob still smile *sob I'm sorry *sob'
I stop crying and just stare at him. All of a sudden i was smiling at him. A loud laugh escaped my mouth and soon i was on the ground laughing. He looked at me with a confused face, still crying.
'Iksu you idiot, you don't need to cry for me, it's alright, I'm fine'
'R-really?'
He looks at me with a happy face. I nod at him while still laughing.
*rumble (A/N: it's a stomach rumbling nothing more!'
I look at Iksu and smile.
'We should get back to the hut'
'Yeah...'
His face had gone a light pink, he must be embarrassed. How cute. We get up and walk back to the hut. My eyes widen in shock when i see that Jake was lying dead still on the ground, outside the hut.
What happened to him?
A/N: There we go another chapter i hoped you enjoyed it!
