CHAPTER 7 PART 2
****************************
KING GREGOR P.O.V
TWO HOURS LATER.
****************************
I left the guest court with my two guards following me and proceeded to the siphon court
after the one year truce with Necoban kingdom has been finalized. These boys are really pissing me off,how come the bastard Sebastian and Aric is now something they find difficult to capture.
Entering the court,Viguel was already there waiting for me and on sight,he stood up and bowed.
"Your highness" He said.
"You must have a good reason for the failed mission" I half-shouted.
"Yes your highness,they had fled when we got there.It seems as though they knew we are
coming for them"
"What is it you are spilling Commander?.Do you mean to tell me you didn't take any magician or what?" I asked.
"Your able highness,I took three magicians but none was able to figure out something."The
Commander said.
"Saran!!!!!!!!!!"He called.
A young man entered into the the court dressed in a a dark armor and a matching helmet with his spear place readily in his strong hands.
"Tell the king what you observed"The commander
told him.
The man faced me and gave a bow.
"Your incorruptible majesty, the house we visited was enchanted" He said.
"From what" I asked.
"your majesty,the house was enchanted in such a way that it's even beyond my own magical knowledge but all I know is that nothing out of
that house can be use to track them.I tried using some objects in the kitchen but all failed, it's like they have one powerful magician."The young saran said.
I rested my back on my throne as I pause to think of this issue.
"I brought this from the house sir" Commander Viguel said.
He handed a sword over to me.
"I retrieved this from the house, maybe you can track them yourself.
"Good of you Commander"I commended the man.
I placed the sword in a horizontal position in my hand as I began the tracking.

DAVID P.O.V
****************************
We arrived at a new place, the old man's place or rather Sage Vagan place. The sage has helped my mum,sis and foster dad out there. The old man who I later learnt to be Sage Vagan
had instructed my mum to tell me the truth about myself and mum had told me the devastating story.There and then made up my mind that my
real dad will pay even if it's just going to be for the death of Garrick. How could my dad be this cruel. You killed my twin brother after taking his pure Magical powers and you proceeded to taking my own too but you weren't successful and out of your rage you threw I and mum out of your house.
I snapped out of my thoughts as the old man ushered us into the mini house. The house was yellow-coloured both the interior
and exterior. Inside the house, the sitting room consists of leather chairs and a table placed in the middle and with a dining table located at the far end. The wall was decorated with black and white pictures which left me to wonder how old
the sage will be.
"This is beautiful "Peace whispered in my ears.
"Just as you are beautiful" I replied smiling.
"Just stop the lies Aric" She said.
"I would have married you if not that you are my sister because your just too beautiful but wait,
did you just call me Aric?" I asked surprised.
She just gave me a wink and she was gone.
"Make yourself comfortable ladies and gentlemen while I go get something for the mouth" Sage Vagan said disappearing into the adjacent room. I settled unto a leather chair close to mum and began asking some questions.
"so tell me mum, how was dad like in the first place?" I asked.
"your dad was loving,caring, but being a magician made him had this thirst for power which led him to taking your twin brother's magical powers and killing the small Garrick in the process." mum answered.
"How come he found you?" I asked pointing at my foster dad.
"Well, Sebastian was your dad's best friend then and he couldn't take it to see us living in the
street so he took us in as his own family and that only move made your dad hate him and
began hunting for his Life but we manage to escape most times until our hiding place in
Groovebane was discovered" mum said looking at me with her eyes filled with so much hurt.
"Okay Mum, but I still have something that am still confused about"i told her
"ask my son" she said
"I know certainly that dad was not birthed by a king neither did he come from a King's line, so
how come he is now the king of this large kingdom?" I asked
Mum wasn't able to reply as the sage bursted in.
"THE ENCHANTMENT HAS BEEN BREACHED,WE ARE BEEN TRACKED"
The old man said looking at everyone of us.
In no time everyone was up grabbing one thing or the other.I had thought we are in a safer place but it's the other way round.
"but how come?" I asked the old man.
"I saw them taking Sebastian's sword along with them and the only person capable of tracking us with that is the king himself."the sage said in his
usual hoarse voice.
"That means the king is coming by himself?"Sebastian asked.
"Nay,I doubt that,let's just get moving" the old man said.
"NO"Sebastian replied.
"I will stay here and fight them,You guys follow
Sage Vagan to safety" My foster dad said again.
"Sebastian, don't die on me please,just let's go to safety" mum pleaded.
"No Rachael,it was me they tracked because the sword is mine and if I keep following you guys, I will just be blowing our cover. Just let me stay
Rachael."Sebastian said.
"Okay take care honey"mum said wiping tears from her eyes.
"Am staying too" I announced.
"What??"Peace exclaimed.
"You must be joking Aric" she said.
"Well am not, am staying with dad and together we are fighting anything coming our way"
"Your brother has made his decision Peace, so let's be on our way"The sage voice echoed
through the house.
Having said that the old man created a portal which Peace and mum entered.
"If you come looking for us,you will find us in Nefrin town" The sage said before disappearing
through the portal.
"Are you ready for this son?"My foster dad asked.
"of course dad, my hands has been itching to get a good fight all this while" I replied.
We got outside the house and looked into the surrounding bushes, but found nothing. we were about to get inside when we began hearing footsteps.
"Seems like we got company" I said brandishing my twin swords.
"BATTLE FORMATION!!!!!!!!!!
My foster dad and I backed each other,that way we can watch each other's backs.
To be continued....
