Chapter 22
Significance (2)
Seeing that Anonym still wanted to move hideouts, Switch could only agree. He clicked his fingers to get rid of Presley"s treasure and that was enough to get the dragon to come back to the top of the land. Just as they were about to set out, a figure came out, from hiding behind a tree. He looked exhausted and his body looked a bit worse for wear as it was skinny.
"Take me with you." He said, as he fell. He didn"t intentionally mean to fall, he was just drained of energy.
Anonym laughed, seeing someone bowing to her was great! It looked like she had found her third slave! "Sure, here!"
Gifting him the art of Rejuvenation, by touching him, he regained some nourishment.
Feeling so much better then moments before, he looked at her with questions but decided not to say anything.
Switch watched on with no expression, as the two seemed to decide things on their own and was a little upset. Why couldn"t she ask him?
What he found afterwards, confused him more as no more words were said between them…
They had barely anything with them as they left their spot and went into the direction they had agreed upon beforehand.
What they had left behind...Was a mess!
The Hydra Clan were now blacklisted from the Imperial Concubine, even though they tried very hard to rea.s.sure her that they were very loyal. Nothing had worked to satisfy her unhappiness of them losing of what she even called her own bargaining chip!
Secretly, she had wanted to find a mind controller that was stronger than that of who had mind controlled that little girl and take her for herself!
But, she hadn"t found one yet and now the girl was gone!
Being someone that got angry because she couldn’t obtain what she had wanted, she utterly dismissed the Hydra Clan! She did not even stay for the last night banquet that they were supposed to attend.
Prince Nathan made things even more difficult for them as he followed in his mother"s footsteps and became arrogant and displeased.
After the royals and their servants left, the Hydra Clan were so angry that they demanded that their soldiers searched inside and out of the Hydra Clan, to find this little girl, and couldn"t sleep or eat until she was found!
The Hydra Clan had been integrating the mind controller of the little girl for quite some time and it wasn’t until the Imperial Concubine had left that the mind controller remembered that he had lost the connection to the girl when the earth had been trembling…
This news was really significant! The elders spent a few days after hearing this, on deciding their next plan of action. Still wanting to be on the good side of the Imperial Concubine, they set forward a messenger to race towards her with the news written down in a sealed envelope…
But, the little runt that seemed to have ruined the relationship between the two clans, had already left the Hydra Clan...
Travelling to the biggest Clan in the Murkcloud continent would normally take about two weeks travel time on a mount. But, Presley had pounced up and down repeatedly before Switch, to let Anonym have a fly with him.
The follower that they had picked up, would many times want to know what was going on with the earth trembling slightly and the voice that was coming out from nowhere, but always remained silent. As it was, he was already very thankful to these strangers. Having found them in starvation and thirst, he was now very much back to a healthy weight and never in dire need of nourishment. He didn’t want to speak up, afraid that they’ll dismiss him.
After two days, Switch had given in to the pest and Anonym happily accepted, as she really wanted to fly anyway. When Anonym climbed on something that was invisible to the follower, he gasped, what was this thing.
"Get him too, Presley." Anonym said, pointing at the follower.
Presley picked up the follower, with an invisible claw, and dropped him next to Anonym.
He was utterly freaked out...What he was on, was pretty big...
Then they were off, leaving Switch, who hated heights, behind!
***
What Switch hadn"t thought of, was that Anonym would make Presley visible and scare a h.e.l.l of a lot of people! After he caught up, pa.s.sing through three clans along the way, he saw many people screaming or falling to the ground in fright. People were seen pointing and Presley had made a show of it, by stealing an animal and making the blood fall to the ground!
Back on his planet of Bracabra, dragons were a part of the living beings there, but here…They had only read books about them, but some of them hadn’t even read about them at all! This new, ma.s.sive thing, flew around and someone on top of it seemed to laugh devilishly, that made them all think that an apocalypse was going to happen! To these three clans…It was the end of the world!
Sadly, after this, people run towards the biggest clan to escape tragedy, only to see this dragon once again…
Switch was already upset, that Anonym had gone on ahead, but now...He just felt like he was being left behind, unable to join them in the fun. He sighed to his fear of heights and teleported further away, but, closer to the scary, flying dragon. This dragon was indeed…His best friend…
"Kids." Switch said, while shaking his head. But he wasn"t upset to what was happening to the innocents, Anonym hadn"t let loose for awhile and now that she was having fun, it made him slightly relieved.
