Chapter 4- One’s Wish

Posted by

It’s been a few months since the fires in my home. To be honest it seems like ages ago to me. Though it’s been so little time that’s really pasted. I’ve guess Scarlet and Jorgen have taken very good care of me, to the point that I have put the memory in the back of my head. Also while I’ve been here I have got to experience so many different traits from both of them. Like how much Scarlet hates dirt and mud ,but then you would always see Jorgen covered in it all the time. Or like how Jorgen hates vegetables but Scarlet loves to eat them. It’s like they’re polar opposites from each other. But somehow get along so well. I guess the saying “You may hate your siblings now but in the future they’ll be there through thick and thin.” is true. At least that is what the elder of our village said.

She happened to be a very wise person. She had lived for 80 to 90 years until a year ago. She had pasted from an illness that has be troubling her since she was in her 20’s. It was very sad for our village. But she had got to experience so much in her life time that many others didn’t. I remember being super happy to hear her stories. On how she got to adventure beyond our small village, which many people did not get to do. You see our small village is hard to get to and out of. The only time people left was when they got tired of living there or when we really, really needed food from the outside. But still she got to fight tons of demons and goblins and some many different creatures. She also happened to get the tittle of hero in our village when she brought back two pounds of gold and sliver. Which is a lot for a small village. That would easily be considered noble money ,but she managed to pull it off. She was truly a good person though I heard when she was younger she was a trouble maker. And somehow ended up the wises person in our village. To be honest I don’t think when she was younger that she would think she would end up in the position of elder. Even though it sort of makes since. She got to make so many different choices that could change or end her life.

Though I have always dreamed and read about the outside world ,and how amazing it would be. Imagine adventuring the world seeing things that many others don’t get too ,or defeating the most wickedness villains out there, or even maybe catching rare items. The adventures to go on are endless and imaginable. But the most important part would be the people you meet along the way. I mean the truest friends you meet along the way will be entwined by fate. Meaning no matter how weird or different they are from you they will always be entwined by fate to meet you. It doesn’t matter whether in it’s now, tomorrow, or years from now. Every person you meet is what fate had intended for you. And that’s what I can’t what for. Is to meet the people I will spend most of my days with. People I would consider family. Maybe the dragons that I’ve met will be those type of people. But only time will tell, right?

Scarlet and Jorgen walks through one of the caves openings. “Thinking to yourself again, little one?” Jorgen says as he puts the meat down from his mouth on to the grass..

“Yeah! I was just thinking about random things.”

“Really? Like what, sweetie?” Scarlet says as she blows a pure color flame out of her mouth ,that happens to light a fire. The fire was very pretty. One second the flame was a white and periwinkle color, then a red an orange flame bursting out into the few feet it could reach in the sky.

“No matter how many times I see your flame ,Scarlet, it’s the beautiful thing I’ve ever in a flame.”

“You say that every time I light the fire, Kim! And I love your compliments! I mean you give way more compliments then my brother over there” She fiercely turns her head at him. He looks at her in confusion.

“Umm….What are we talking about?”

“Where talking about how you don’t give compliments!”

“What are you talking about?! I complimented you when you killed that wolf early.”

“No you didn’t! You are making this up!”

“It’s nice to see you guys never change. Even after a few months of knowing you!” I said as I cracked the biggest smile.

“You know I think she should learn how to hunt ,Sis. I think she would be a great help.”

“Hunting….maybe she should. She has nothing to do all day except think. So I think you are right ,Brother, this could be good for her. But that’s only if she wants to go with us.”

I was shocked when I heard that. “Really?! You mean it! I can join you?”

“Of course you can join us, little one. Will most likely go hunting to tomorrow if that’s ok with you.”

My eyes grow big in disbelief as my smile only grows bigger. “YES! TOTALLY LET’S GO HUNTING TO TOMORROW!”

“That’s great sweetie! Now do you at least know how to hunt or any of the sorts?”

“Hmm…..no I don’t know how to hunt…BUT I saw people do it all the time! So maybe that counts for something?”

“Hahahm….no sadly that doesn’t count for anything. But I think it’s cute that you tried ,little one.”

“I agree! That was really cute, but I guess Jorgen will show you how to hunt tomorrow, sweetie.”

“Yay! I can’t wait! Thank you for dinner I’m gonna go get some sleep!” I put my bowl down and ran off in excitement. “This will be a good time to learn something I’ve never done!” I thought as I began to run off at full speed to get to my sleeping area.

“She seem really happy ,Brother! Do you think we’re doing a good job on raising her?”

“Yeah, I do think we are doing a good job. I mean look at her she doesn’t seem as sad as she was when we found her.”

“Yea….but I can’t help but wonder what would’ve happened if we didn’t help her. Do you think she would have survived in the tunnels. I mean the tunnels have magic on them to make it impossible to navigate. So I don’t know how she did it.”

“Hmm…you are right. Maybe she has magic that helped her navigate through it?”

“Maybe but that would be a little weird because I haven’t sensed any magically presents from her.”

“Yeah me either…but what if she’s hiding that side of her?”

“We would have noticed in her scent. It would be changing a lot.”

“Yeah I guess that’s true…..Sis what if she’s just lucky?”

“Luck? Maybe she is lucky? Maybe she not? I don’t know that answer. But from the pasted few months we have spent with her I think we are suppose to watch her grow.”

“hpmf….I hope so! I really want to watch her become a better version of herself.”

“Me too. Say Jorgen should we make a bet on her.” He turns to look at her with one eyebrow up and one eyebrow down. “What type of bet?”

“I think she’ll bring peace in the world where peace is not.”

“I see a future guess on what she may do.” He then turns his gaze forwards to look at the night sky. “I think she will become a good….great person. A Hero in many different places. Some to look out for. You know ,Sis.”

“hehehe! Yeah that’s a good guess. So what do you want if you win?”

“I don’t know? Maybe I don’t have to see our Great Auntie when the time comes?”

“That’s what I was wanting but can have that one . Hmm….now you put me at a loss. OH! I know I want to get a compliment when I ask for one!”

“Compliments? Your weirder then I thought, maybe you should sleep.”

“That mean!” She then lunges at him with anger burning her eyes. As the fight went it turned into play fighting which she somehow ended up winning.

“SEE I’M A BETTER FIGHTER, BROTHER!”

“Your going to wake Kim up!”

“Still you have to know that I won this fight!”

He then grins pulling her down and sitting on her. “Soooo, you still think you won this fight?” Her face went into a pout. “YOU’RE SO MEAN!!!”

“No I’m just playing fair!”

“NO YOU CHEATED!!!”

“How could I have cheated?”

“I don’t know yet ,BUT I WILL FIGURE IT!!”

“OK…I wish you the best of luck.”

“What you’re not going to deny it?”

“Nahh. You have zero proof so why would I need to deny it?”

“I don’t know’

“Come on you are tired let’s go to bed.”

“NOOO! NOT UNTIL YOU SAY I WON!”

“Ok, you won Sis!”

“YESSAAA!” She yells as she runs off into the distance.
