Chapter 5

Daniel and Sarah arrived at their destination but to Daniels utter surprise he knew the place. He had secretly hired a witch, a necromancer to spy and look out for his family. That was the reason why he didn't tell Sarah he knew the place, he didn't want t give up the fact that he didn't trust her at least not yet.  It was a medium sized house fit for a one person to live alone. Sarah walked up to the door and rang the door bell. When the witch didn't reply she began knocking on the door but there still was no reply. ''She must be out, I know where she might be.'' Sarah said a little too eagerly. ''you do? And how would you possibly know that?'' he noticed how uncomfortable she seemed. '' I came across her earlier today when I was tracking Nicolas; we had a fierce battle with her friend which I killed. Not on purpose of course she tried to kill me. I suspect she will be there.'' She explained to him. ''where?'' he asked. ''An abandoned house were the trail lead. I have a hunch that she might look for her friend.'' The moment she finished her sentence Daniel spotted Elizabeth approaching. Sarah noticed Daniels attention had shifted and turned to look at who it was, she smiled viciously. "Speak of the devil. She is here." She said as Elizabeth approached. "Sarah? What are you doing here?" she said as she reached them. Only then did she notice Daniel. "Your....." she wanted to great his highness when he gave her a sign not to without Sarah noticing. Elizabeth had always been smart so she understood he didn't want Sarah to know they knew each other.

So Sarah was the friend Elizabeth was talking about when she said she wanted to team up? He thought to his self. ''we are here to see you." Sara broke the awkward silence. "We know all you have been doing Lisa." As heartless Sarah was she even used her nickname while she was trying to frame her for a crime she didn't even commit. Unfortunately for her, Daniel wasn't as naïve and Gullible as she had presumed. "What are you talking about?" Elizabeth said both confused and exhausted. She looked really tired and her eyes were red and puffy as if she had been crying. "We know you are the one behind it all, you poisoned the king and kidnapped my beloved." Sarah yelled at her furiously, her eyes were blazing with blinding rage. Elizabeth was baffled and speechless she didn't understand how and why she was being accused. However she must defend herself she thought. "We are on the same side remember? I thought we had a deal, we decided to split up remember? You were supposed to Calm Alex down and I was supposed to go find Melissa." Elizabeth's voice broke at the mention of the friend she felt sorrow for she dragged her into this. "Yes I remember trust me and this is hard for me because you are my best friend but your treachery cannot go unpunished. Where is Melissa did you find her? Let me guess she is dead right?'' Sarah explained and faked a few sad faces making it look real. She had forgotten one thing, she told Daniel she had killed the witches friend and he was about to find out that that friend was Melisa.

"I dragged her into this. It's entirely fault if I hadn't told her to help you she would have never been taken and she would still be alive." Elizabeth sobbed letting the guilt consume he and all she could think about was memories of her friend. "I am sorry for your loss." Daniel offered his condolences feeling partially guilty for her pain. "She is not grieving! She must have tracked her down to that' abandoned building and killed her to cover her tracks. Tell me? Did you enjoy chopping of her head?" Sarah was getting desperate after she noticed Daniel sympathising with her so called best friend and decided to push things further without thinking. Unfortunately but Daniel and Elizabeth caught up on the lies. "How did you know she was decapitated?" Elizabeth snapped out of her sobbing. "Was Melissa the girl you killed in that building?" Daniel suddenly felt extremely angry NS STUPID FRO NOT paying attention to the details around him. '''What you killed Melissa?"" Elizabeth said looking pissed as hell.  "Umm.... No I didn't kill Melissa it was a different girl. Come on I would never. And about the decapitation you told us when you arrived don't you remember." She said while she carefully back away towards a wall. Daniel noticed and grabbed her by her neck strangling her. "No, we need her. Only she can help us find your brother." Elizabeth reminded him of whets at stake. He released her and she fell to the ground with a thud coughing trying to hold her breath. However he didn't let her rest as he grabbed her by the hair jerking her up. '''you are going to tell us everything you know. She frantically nodded, he then released her. "Like hell I will." Was all she said before raising her hand releasing a strong invisible force which sent Daniel flying backwards? Elizabeth has a shield protecting her as her brown eyes shined like gold in the darkness. Sarah knew she wouldn't win a fight against her. She created a portal in the wall behind her and went through it disappearing. 

When Daniel returned from flying, Elizabeth looked at his sorrow and sadness evident in her eyes. "I am sorry for your loss your highness. "She said genuinely feeling for him. He however had forgotten that he came here to save his father who was dead now because of that witch. ''would you like to come in your highness? There bis a lot I need t tell you and trust me you need to be seated.''
