2020-09-26 00:55:43"I'm serious Iris! That is what happened!!" Rex exclaimed when Iris didn't believe him.
"Ok dear, you're here and you're fine, that's all that matters." She said sweetly. "Go upstairs clean yourself up and try and relax a little"
"Fine" Rex grumbled, clearly not impressed she thought he was joking.
After a nice warm shower and he was clean, Rex threw on some clean clothes and sat in his chair staring at the wall for a while.
What an odd day he had, he thought. He focused his eyes because his felt like his headache was going to return if he didn't stop thinking about it, saw his computer and thought, well she says my brain is already rotting, no harm can be had now, kicking into a few adventure games.
It was easy for Rex to like video games, not having any friends, except online, he could lose himself quite easily. Not having any parents always made him the odd one out and got him ridiculed, especially at Father or Mother's Day events, always having his grandmother there instead.
After losing track of time and falling asleep in his chair until 2am, again, it was only when he heard a loud *Crack* like sound from outside.
Prying his eyes open he walked to the window to investigate what had made the sound. Well what an odd looking person, Rex thought squinting to try and get a better look at the figure standing across the road.
He was about to close his blinds when he heard the front door open and close, and his grand mother walking across the road towards the person!
"Whaaaat.." he gasped not believing his eyes.
What is she doing and who is that she is speaking to, why did they bow when they saw her?
Rex's mind was now racing, "Am I dreaming?" Ow, nope not dreaming.
What would Iris want with someone who dresses like that? He thought.
After flooding his brain full of questions Rex struggled to sleep.
The next morning he ran downstairs, not even getting changed, he wanted answers to what he saw.
"Good morning King, how did_____"
"Who were you talking to across the road last night Iris?" Rex blurted out, not even letting Iris finish her usual morning greeting.
"Who was talking last night?" She said, mouth slightly opening at hearing what he asked.
"You were, I heard something, saw someone and he bowed to you!!" Why who what..." he jumped around.
"I haven't the faintest idea what you're talking about, you sure this isn't from one of your games?" Iris asked.
"Well no...are you ok? It's 15 degrees and you're sweating..." Rex added.
"It comes with age" replied Iris.
She is hiding something, I know it thought Rex, I've ever seen her like this.
"Must have been my imagination then, I was playing video games until late" he exclaimed shrugging his shoulders. Inside he knew something wasn't right.
"I'm heading to the shops today" Iris said suddenly as Rex starting walking to the stairs.
"I always do that for you" Rex said.
"Yes but you're under a lot of pressure from school it seems, your mind is going wild, first fighting, next 'floating daggers' and now this 'mystery visitor', I can handle the shopping this time"
Now I know something is up and I will get my answers Rex mumbled walking up the stairs to get changed.

“How did you….” Nessa trailed off. Rex and Nessa knew what had happened to Pilk and were astonished she was here and in good shape.“Survive after you snapped my neck?” Pilk finished Nessa’s sentence with an evil grin, “Trade secret, may even tell you before I repay the favour back to you.”“Once more, leave us the boy and that girl and you two can leave” said one of the men, talking to Lizz and Charr.“You want him, must go past me” said Charr tapping his axe on his shoulder with a grin.Lizz added in shortly after, “And me too.”Rex looked at his friends and gave them a smile and respectful head nod at their statements, he couldn’t be happier that his friends were willing to fight with him until the end.“W

“Who are you and why would you want to help us?” Lizz asked eyeing her suspiciously.“My name is Nessa. I’ve been asking myself the same question” Nessa said with a smirk. That comment confused Lizz and Charr a little.“Do you know Rex?” Lizz asked.“Yes I do” Nessa replied nodding. When she said that she noticed Lizz frown a little. Was this girl his lover? She thought to herself, she reacted to her intrusion like Nessa would defending him if he was hers, another question that needed answering. She then realised that she was regarding Rex as hers, silly thoughts about him again she thought. “What or who has him unable to fight his way out? I know he is more than capable of taking on those 3 plus us and still probably win.”“How you know how Rex fight?” Charr asked stepping cl

“What the bloody hell does that mean?” Nessa asked. It was way too early in the morning for her riddles.“Typical good-mannered conversation” Al’ik said with a smirk, “I believe it means you are to help someone change, how would I know? Its your fate, not mine. I’m a healer, not a fortune teller.”“Then how did you see my fate?” Nessa asked.“I’m not sure, that’s why I debated as to tell you or not. It seemed quite serious to me, so I decided I would pass it on. It is now for you to decode what it is supposed to mean.” Al’ik replied, “Now eat this and you are good enough to be on your way.”Nessa nodded, sat down and took the food she was given. She hated riddles and was never good at them so she had no idea what, “show an outwards sign of an inwa

“Uurgh” was the only sound Rex could muster as he forced his eyes open. He had an intense headache from being hit on the head and was quite sure that wet feeling behind his head was blood. He could hear creaking noises before his eyes started to focus again, I am moving, he could feel the jolts. Blinking a few times to help clear his vision he sat his head up, he felt his hands and feet were bound tightly so he could not get up by himself. He could see 2 people to his front sitting facing forward and looking to his sides he saw wooden upright boards, he must have been in the back of a wagon.“Morning sunshine” came a voice from his feet area. Turning his head a little too quickly Rex felt his vision blur a little once more, don’t do that again he said to himself. Sitting at his feet was the woman from the vegetable stall. She was watching him with an evil smile on his face. She hopped up grabbed Rex’s shoulders and propped him up

Rex jumped up the moment the memories matched about who the person was. He quickly half dried himself, threw on some of the clothes that were put out for him and went in the direction he saw the woman walking. Not having a clear heading, he wandered aimlessly for a while looking into the faces of the maids he saw. Rounding a corner, he ran into Stug who was giving out orders to a man wearing a cloak, getting the man moving he looked back at Rex, eyed him up and down and saw him still half wet and asked hurriedly, “Is everything ok prince?”“Yes, one of the people you’re looking for is here! I saw her walk past my room” Rex said.“Really! They have the nerve to try and sneak back in, I will sort th

Once the man had burst out of the keep he came to a halt in front of the 3 companions, still ranting about dealing out the death penalty for the murder of his brother.“Who the f**k are you 3?” he yelled in their faces. They could see the vein popping from his neck, Lizz thought they were going to die.“These are the 3 accused of Dreg’s murder” replied a guard who was near them. This made the red-faced man leer at them, if looks could kill they would have all died by now.“I hereby sentence you 3 to death!!” he screamed pointing at them.
