Original X-roads-2003

    Jamie gasped, “I think he killed Jonothan.”
    “Is that all?” Mesiaha crossed her arms.
    “She loved him.”
    Mesiaha stood in shock, “I knew he was jealous, I didn’t know he was gonna do that tho.” They ducked behind some trees.
    I finally gave up after a few more mislead swipes, I let the sword fall to the ground as I fell back to my knees.
    Sertoff stood motionless, looking down at me.
    I breathed deep for a few minutes in the silence, then looked up with the most contempt and hatred I had ever felt for him. “You better not sleep tonight, or any other night for that matter.”
    Sertoff turned and walked away.
    As soon as he was out of sight I screamed as loud as I could, then began to cry uncontrollably.
 
    Sertoff froze in his tracks as he heard the scream, he closed his eyes then resumed forward.
    Mesiaha walked up to him, “You didn’t have ta do that ya know.”
    “Don’t presume to tell me anything, little girl. Or your next.” he pushed her down. “I’m already on her bad side, what difference does a little more make?”
 Meahwhile…
    All of the sudden it hit me, a great idea… I got up and ran towards the castle. Once inside I walked to Zariaha, “Hey I need a favor.”
    She looked up confused, “What has happened to you?”
    “Never mind that, I need you transport me to Kilji’s.”
    “He will kill you.” she started to refuse.
    “DO IT NOW!!!” I yelled at her.
    Kilji had already fully recovered from the earlier incident, his eyes narrowed as he watched me approach.
