Chapter 28

They were seven strodding through the path. Instead of training, it looked more like a vacation.

"I still don't know why we have to bring them along", Kael said whining looking at Johnn and Nick.

"If they stay, Nyx stays", Zimri said turning towards Kael.

"Welcome aboard", Kael said giving a friendly shove to both Johnn and Nick earning a scoff from Dorrien.

Ian walked with a slight smile plastered on his face enjoying the company. Being an illegitimate child, he had never felt this comfortable with others. He either had Pierre on his neck or Clove trying to up him in some way and to think he would experience such feelings due to Roshan was bizarre.

Roshan turned towards him giving him his annoying smile making Ian rethink his decision whether Roshan could really read minds.

But his child hood wasn't all bad because he had May.

Speaking of which he wondered how she was right now.

His mind drifted back to the past and his mood dropped a little. A slight shove pulled him out of his thoughts.

"I wonder where we are going", Nick said to Nyx after she joined up with him.

Roshan stopped abruptly looking around muttering something under his breath.

A year ago she would have never dreamed this would happen. Now, she was a fugitive from her own land chased around and she wondered when things started to go south.

But she couldn't bring herself to dwell on the past. She had a task and that was to find the crimson wolf and she was not going to fail.

Slowing down, the gates of a city could be seen up ahead with the words Listonne written on it together with the insignia of a flying horse. Merchants buzzed in and out some trying to pitch their products to no avail.

As she walked in, the streets buzzed with life. The weather was bright and sunny unlike Valnaria that was cloudy and calm.

"Will you buy this miss", a voice said. Looking down to check, it came from a boy who could not have been more than 12. His cheeks were round and puffed and his skin looked tanned from the sun.

In his hands he held a green scarf with little gold designs on the edges.

"Sure why not'', she responded getting the scarf slowly dropping down her hoodie to reveal her blood red hair.

"Thank you miss pretty", the boy exclaimed excited.
