Chapter 14: Splitting up

  We pick the story back up with Azril, Mitsuri, and Kubub. They are leaving a destroyed town in a carriage in the middle of the night. Mitsuri is driving while Kubub and Azril are sitting in the back. Azril is holding a shining blue crystal in her hand.

  "Finally I have the last of Merlin's magic in the palm of my hand. Now nothing will be able to stop me" Azril says.

  "Kill me" Kubub tried saying but it is just too soft to be heard. Not that Azril was even listening to him anyways.

  "I think some people have just arrived that will be able to stop you" says Leofric as he somehow managed to get on the carriage undetected. He doesn't have his helmet on and is sitting in the carriage next to Azril. Azril gets up in to a defensive stance and Mitsuri notices what's happening and stops the horses. She also hides the crystal behind her back.

  "How did you get here?" Azril asks.

  Leofric remains seated and crosses his legs. He then takes a big yawn. "You know,

  burning a whole village to the ground is pretty noticeable"

  Mitsuri goes to pick up her bow which was sitting next to her. But as she touches it, she hears a draw of a bow behind her. "I wouldn't do that if I were you" Friedrich says as he is aiming his bow straight towards the back of her head.

  Kubub makes an attempt to get up. But both Ivo and Vincent appear to stop him from approaching Leofric. "So Azril I really don't want to fight right now. It has been such a long journey, especially with these three arguing the whole time. So make this easy for us please"

  Azril pauses for a second, but within that time she already made an entire plan in her head. Then with a smirk she agreed to being taken in. "I see we are no match for you horsemen of apocalypse"

  Ivo laughs. "Finally someone realizes how strong we are"

  Some time passes and they have handcuffs on them. Leofric grabbed the blue crystal from Azril but it wasn't shining anymore. "What are you doing with this? And why isn't it shining anymore?" Leofric asks.

  "That's how it was when I got it. It has been here for a long time so it is possible Merlin's magic slowly faded away" Azril responded.

  Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

  Friedrich puts Mitsuri on the back of his horse. "Speaking of Merlin, where is his book that you stole?"

  "I burned it. I am the only one that knows everything that was in that book" Azril says smirking.

  Before they take off both Friedrich and Leofric talk privately just a little bit away from the rest.

  "She is planning something I can feel it, I will watch her very closely you make sure to watch the other ones" Leofric tells him.

  "Yes sir"

  Back with the main group. Khatar and Ilyanna hug. "Where are you guys off to next?" Ilyanna asks.

  "We are heading to Khosatt. You are more than welcome to join us" Khatar tells her.

  "I can't. I still have to look after that little one. I really scared him there for a second"

  They stop hugging and Ilyanna looks over to see Ali and Namato laughing at Vodden. He tripped face first on to the ground. Vodden got up and began to yell and chase after Namato. "Namato seems like fun"

  Khatar looks at Namato. "No not at all" he sighs.

  "Stop lying to yourself, you know you care about him. I can see it"

  Khatar sighs even harder. "It is true I care about him. Doesn't make him any less of a nuisance though. But I owe him everything"

  Ilyanna looks at Khatar. "Well with you by his side, I am sure you two will accomplish anything"

  Evelyn walks up to everyone. "Listen up, Drogz has just left. Azril contacted him and told him and the other armies to meet just outside of Evertide in two weeks"

  "Perfect, we should be there in two days so that is plenty of time to warm them" Namato said.

  "No, not yet. First we must go to Khosatt. There is someone who lives their that we need on our side"

  Namato looks at Evelyn confused. "But what about Evertide, shouldn't we at least, warn them first?"

  "Trust me Namato, we have a better chance with her on our team"

  "But I'm just saying-"

  "Namato we are going to Khosatt" Evelyn sternly said to Namato.

  "Who made you leader?" Namato sternly asked back to her.

  "Wait, stop arguing you two. We can send two groups. One group to warn Evertide and the other one to get the girl in Khosatt"Khatar said trying to cool them down.

  "That sounds like a good plan. Me and Khatar will-" Namato said before getting cutoff.

  "No, Khatar will come with me to Khosatt. I need him to help me locate the girl and no offense Vodden but you don't seem like most efficient at finding someone"

  Vodden looked offended at first then started nodding in agreement.

  Namato on the other hand seemed annoyed. "Whatever, hope she isn't as bossy as you are"

  "Khatar we need to leave quickly" Evelyn said walking away.

  Khatar looked at Ilyanna. "You and Ali need to leave by then. I don't want you both to get caught up in the war that's about to happen"

  "Khatar, me and Ali will be fine. We will meet again big bro" Ilyanna said as Ali came over to her. They held hands as they walked away.

  "Thank you big bro. Can't wait to see you again" Ali said to Khatar. Khatar waved them goodbye.

  Then as both groups begin to travel to their destinations, something sinister awaits them both.
