"I've gone insane," Red Oak says to himself as he walks along the path.
"I've finally lost it. Why else would I listen to a man looking for a church
in a town where you go to to NEED to confess in church? Why else would
I be out here, alone?"
The demi-fox suddenly stops in puzzlement as a red dot appears on his
tunic jacket. It had a strange....light like quility to it. It couldn't
be a stain.....
"Halt and be recognised," a man's voice says from the brush. Oak silently
berates himself for woolgathering instead of paying attention to what was
happening around him. His sense of smell should have tipped him off long
ago that others were in the area......
"HOLD YOUR FIRE!" shouts a female as she comes running out of the brush
and in front of the demi-fox. This is one of the ones we need!"
"Uh," stutters Red Oak. "By any chance are you the group that Natthias
John sent me to meet?"
The group stops and stares down at the little demi-fox. Several startling
figures step out of the shadows.....and one in particular nearly makes
the demi-fox's jaw hit the floor!
-
"My father
sent you?" the surprise Alicia asks.
Go Back
