Chapter 5- "We have pie!"
"This isn't right!"
Tom trudged alongside Jordan, whom was dragging his talons on the dirt due to the several logs strapped to his back.
"Yeah, I know. But we really can't do anything about it."
Tucker was next to him, Sonja to his right. She was carrying most of the fallen trees, yet she hardly seemed to be having much of a problem.
"Yes you can! We have dragons for God's sake!"
Tucker shrugged. "Yeah, but so does the kingdom. But they keep it a secret. Plus they have thousands of soldiers. It isn't much of a fight."
Tom growled under his breath. "I'm not sure how long this has been going on for, but I'm not standing for this!"
"Well, what are you going to do?" Tucker glanced over to him, genuinely curious as to what Tom could do.
"We're marching over there and getting the king out of power, even if it means killing him!"
Tucker slowly blinked, before laughing loudly. The man looked over to him, confused. "What?"
"You actually think it's that easy?" Tucker managed between laughs.
Tom shrugged. "Maybe."
Tucker controlled himself and coughed. "But really. The kingdom is at least a weeks flight away. Even if you do make it, they'll strike you down before you even get a glimpse at the town so no citizens see Jordan. If by some miracle you get inside, the castle is really guarded. There is always at least 3 guards by the king at all times, so you won't be able to even get near the dude. It's pretty much hopeless."
"Well why don't you join us?"
The request made Tucker stop in his tracks. "Join you?"
Tom shrug nonchalantly. "Yeah. You know more about the kingdom than we do, and the more the merrier! Plus, we have pie."
Jordan ducked his head, shaking it while Tucker and Sonja rolled their eyes.
Tucker looked up at Sonja, who locked gazes with him evenly. Almost as if they were reading each others minds, they nodded simultaneously. Tucker turned to the anticipating man beside him, looking at him with a child's curiosity.
"Sure, Tom." Tucker grinned. "We leave at dawn."
