Collided Fate: Book 1

Chapter 18: New Swords

"Did I really change that much since the last time we saw each other. Well I am not related to them by blood, so I wouldn't look like them. But yes I am his son but all I do is hold their name," I explained.

The king laughed,"George you damn fool. I keep owing your family more and more. Tell me Asher, how are they faring."

"They are no longer among the living," I responded.

"My condolences."

"Thank you." I said, keeping a straight face.

"Okay. You and your father always came up with the craziest ideas but they always seem to work.  Asher we'll go with your plan but you'll be taking Julie with you. Along with two others who you should meet along the way. I'll send them a letter to let them know." I nodded.

"Before we set off can I ask a favor from your daughters?" I took out the vials that Grayson gave me.

"I want them to drink this." I shook the vials gently.

"Are you trying to poison us?" asked Princess Satoshi.

"If I were to try and poison you why would I be so upfront about it? Though this does have a little bit of my blood."

I opened the vial cap and grabbed Julie's arm. I gave her a cut and let a drop of her blood fall into the vials.

I placed the cap on them and spun them slowly. I pulled out my gun.

"Cannenta."

Once again the sound of glass breaking rang in my ear and I staggered a bit. Cannenta appeared on her knees and bowing.

"Please no bowing to me. I know it isn't much for your first assignment but please heal her wounds." She got up and walked over to Julie.

"With pleasure," she responded.

I walked over and handed each princess a vial.

"What did you just do," Princess Vivianne asked.

"I summoned Cannenta who is an Angel using this weapon called a gun and asked her to heal Julie. Now drink up, and say our names. Once you do and call out names in a sense of danger we'll appear before you." Cannenta disappeared and I put my gun away.

"Let's go Julie. We're going to go Tippleton then the kingdom of Milfar." I walked out of the throne room.

How in the world did I do that and not receive a death sentence. I'm really glad that my nonsense ended up working, I chuckled to myself.

I waited outside for everyone else. As soon as everyone came out we went over to pick up Julie's horse. Julie brought out her horse and mounted.

"Where is yours?" I patted her horse on the neck.

"He is...a free spirit but he'll come when I call him." Julie looked around.

"Where's Skylark?" I scratched the back of my head.

"Oh I sent him to watch and see how my swords are going. I shot him through the air and he landed at Axel's front door...maybe." I called for Storm.

"You can be a bit strange at times, you know that? Hopefully Skylark's okay," Julie grumbled.

I laughed.

"He's fine. He was the one who asked me to do it."

Storm finally came and pressed his face against mine. I smiled and mounted him.

"We're going to Tippleton again. So how fast can your horse go?"

Her horses name was Reil. She was fast but can't move as fast as Storm. It still wasn't going to take us 3 days. We took a whole day and rested twice during that time. Eventually we made it to Axel's house. I noticed a small hole in the ground next to where Skylark was standing.
