REAL TRUTH III

Queen Lindsey took Noah to the well and told him to look at the water inside the well. Noah looked at the water and could see nothing but the reflection of his head and face.

''I see nothing but my face'' said Noah to queen Lindsey as he took his eyes off the well and looked at queen Lindsey.

''Look again'' said queen Lindsey to Noah.

Noah looked at the water again and this time he saw his head and his eyes yellow in color. Noah was surprised and shocked on seeing his eyes yellow in the water, he took his eye off the water and walked away from the well. Noah said to queen Lindsey ''no, this can't be me. This is another trick of your'', in disbelief.

''That is you. It is a hard truth you must accept and you have changed into a half dragon once'' said queen Lindsey.

''No that is impossible. How could i have changed into a dragon and i won't have any memory of it'' said Noah.

''You will never remember not until you link with Ethusa and embrace who you are. You have to find Ethusa quickly or else you will become a dragon completely and i have the map to find Ethusa. The map in exchange that you lift our curse'' said queen Lindsey.

''Even if i agree to lift your curse i don't know how to do that'' said Noah.

''All you need to do is find the type of spell we were cursed with and you will know how to lift our curse with your magic'' said queen Lindsey.

''Did she just said you have magic?'' Ryn (surprised) asked Noah.

''Yes, me and brother have magic'' said Noah to Ryn.

''And you didn't bother to tell me and my brother'' said Ryn.

''I guess we are even now'' said Noah.

''Now is not the time to chat, you need to decide now'' said queen Lindsey to Noah.

Noah thought for some seconds and said to queen Lindsey ''i can't give you an answer now. I have to confirm everything you told me then i will tell you what i have decided''.

''It fine with us and to know am not lying, my people were once called the Archies'' said queen Lindsey and called a girl.

The girl went to queen Lindsey and gave her a necklace. Queen Lindsey stretched the necklace forward to Noah and said to him ''you will be able to contact me through this necklace when you have decide finish''.

''Okay.. and how do i contact you with this necklace?'' asked Noah.

''Just throw it in any water and i will appear before you'' said queen Lindsey.

Noah took the necklace from queen Lindsey and looked at Ryn, then said to her ''can you please keep everything we heard about here a secret''.

''Why should i?'' Ryn asked Noah.

''Please I have my reason'' said Noah as he kept the necklace in his inner clothe.

''Okay'' said Ryn

'' Thank you. Now how do we return back?'' Noah asked queen Lindsey. Then Noah and Ryn were both hit somewhere around their neck and they fainted.

NEXT DAY MORNING

Benjamin, Ramsay and the guards searched the whole house looking for Ryn and Noah but they were nowhere to be found. Benjamin sent the guards into town to look for them and the guards came back and told him they couldn't find them, then Benjamin told Ramsay to wait in the house and left the house with three guards.

Benjamin and the three guards went into the forest and changed into eagle, they flew to the sky and began to flew around the forest looking for Noah and Ryn. As they searched the forest, Benjamin saw Ryn and Noah (from the sky) laid on the ground next to each other (close to the waterfall), then he and the three guards flew to the ground where both Ryn and Noah were.

Benjamin and the guards changed back to human immediately they stood on the ground, Benjamin wake Noah and Ryn up. Ryn and Noah opened their eyes and saw Benjamin standing in front of them.

''Good morning'' said Benjamin to the both of them with fake smile.

''Brother'' said Ryn as she and Noah stood up. Ryn and Noah looked around them and saw they are back in the forest and the guards.

''Let get back home'' said Benjamin to the both of them, Benjamin lead the way, they followed then the guards.

They all arrived back home and saw Ramsay sited in the siting room. Ramsay who was worried was relieved when he saw them and went to them.

''Meet me in my room right now'' said Benjamin to Ryn and left to his room.

''Hope your brother isn't angry because he sound like he is'' said Noah to Ryn.

''I will handle him'' said Ryn to Noah and left to her brother's room.

Ramsay hit Noah in his belly, Noah winced , ''what that for?'' asked Noah (in slight pain).

''Where the hell did you both go to?'' asked Ramsay.

''No where'' said Noah.

Ramsay locked Noah head in his armpit and said to him ''you must tell me or else i will kill you today and tell father you were eaten by animals''.

''Let go of my head first'' said Noah trying to get his head freed.

Ramsay hit Noah on his head and said to him ''tell me now''.

''Let go of my head first and i will tell you'' said Noah and Ramsay let go of Noah's head.

Noah stood straight and act like he was going to tell Ramsay, then he ran to the room.

''Come back here Noah or i will kill you today'' shouted Ramsay.

Ryn entered into her brother's room and met Benjamin (angry) standing at the window side. Ryn walked to him and stood behind him.

Benjamin faced Ryn and said to her ''how many times have i told you never to sneak out of the house again but you never listen. And this time you sneak out of the house with a stranger, a stranger Ryn''.

''Noah is not a strange big brother'' said Ryn.

''Then he is what. We know nothing about them Ryn, we only took them in because it was Ethusa request and you went out with him not knowing what he might be capable of. Are you trying to let all my effort be in vain. It will hurt me so much if you are hurt, why can't you know that.

I have done everything in my power to always protect you Ryn, the outside world you long for is not a place where our kind can live, it is a dangerous place for our kind. We won't survive if we go out there'' said Benjamin.

''It is not a dangerous place for our kind, father made it so'' said Ryn.

''What are you talking about?'' asked Benjamin.

''Don't try to deny it big brother. All my life you have lied to me about our parents and our kind all because i lost my memories. You told me father and mother died hunting but they did fighting in a war (water filled Ryn's eyes) that shouldn't have took place in the first place if not for father taking side with his friends.

All my life i have always thought father was an honorable man according what you and the people says about him whereas he was evil'' said Ryn and a drop of water fell from her eyes.

''Where....d...did you hear that?'' asked Benjamin with a shaky voice.

''It doesn't matter where i heard it, it is the truth right'' said Ryn but Benjamin gave no response.

''Answer me, it's the truth right'' said Ryn.

''Yes'' said Benjamin as water filled his eyes.

Ryn smiled and asked ''why did you lie to me?''.

''You weren't yourself when you knew the truth about them so i decided not to tell you when you lost your memories so i can keep you save from the pain of the truth. Telling you the truth will break your heart just like right now so I had to keep the truth from you so you won't feel the pain you are feeling right now'' said Benjamin.

''But i deserve to know the truth, i deserve to'' said Ryn as she began to cry.

''Am sorry little sis'' said Benjamin and moved closer to Ryn then hugged her.

''I did it to protect you, you are all i have got. Hurting you will break my heart am sorry'' said Benjamin as water fell from his eyes, still hugging Ryn.
