Dragon's curse

chapter sixty six

I think I am feeling better and yes I noticed that Wolf Fang wrote in my jurnal. I am a little upset with him but I will let him off this time. Since my unexpected illness, I am behind schedule on finding the people on the list. I can only hope I will get better soon and find the others soon before time runs out. I wish I could help humans and monsters get along with each other. Time will only tell and I hope I can unite humans and monsters so they can coexist with each other to make a better world.

Birds chirped with delight as they surrounded the large tents and sat on the branches of the trees while watching the sun rise into the sky. Jaff slowly woke up to the sound of nature surrounding him from every corner, he slowly opened his eyes to see that he was sitting in a tent and he was laying on the ground with a mat sitting under him. He slowly realized that there was an animal pelt that curved him like a blanket. Suddenly, the sound of a little child filled his ears as she ran into the tent and silently hid in a small cabinet that sat in the corner of the tent.

The door clicked shut as the little girl said in a low whisper, "Shhh. Please don't tell him where I am hiding."

Suddenly, a young man came into the tent as he yelled in anger, "Where is she?"

Jaff asked in a fake confused voice, "Where is who?"

"There was a little girl that stole one of my bundles of rope and some food from my teepee." The man replied in frustration as he looked at Jaff with a hint of anger in his eyes.

There was a long moment of silence before Jaff asked in a faked annoyed voice, "There was no little girl that came here so can you please leave now?"

The man sighed in anger as he walked out of the tent in a huf and said, "Watch yourself, that attitude may get you killed someday but it is not going to be by my hands that is for sure. I think you are good in my book, protecting a kid like that and lying to my face like that takes guts. You are very good at making it seem like you meant it but make sure the person hasn't seen her run into the tent."

For a moment the man smirked as he slowly exited the tent and Jaff quickly released the breath of air that he held in for so long as he smiled back at the man for a brief moment. Jaff looked next to him to see that Wolf Fang was sleeping next to him, he slowly got up from the ground as he tried not to wake Wolf Fang and looked around the tent for anything that was laid out for him. After a few minutes of searching, he saw that there was a small chair in one of the corners of the tent with a set of clothes for him. Jaff sighed as he realized that his clothes that he was wearing were ragged and torn up from shifting into his new form. Suddenly, Jaff fell to the ground in pain as he felt his spine start to pop and realigned itself back to normal, his skin slowly went back to a pale white color while his hair started to change into a white color instantly. Twelve minutes later, Jimmy walked into the tent to see Jaff kneeling to the ground in pain with sweat running down his face. Jaff felt as though every bone in his body acked in pain for a few minutes.

Jimmy asked in concern "Jaff, are you alright?"

Jaff replied in an exhausted breath, "Yea, I just need a minute. I will be fine after I catch my breath." He looked up at Jimmy and asked in a confused voice, "I am sorry but who are you?"

Jimmy smiled as he filled in the blanks that Jaff could not remember that happened to him from before he passed out from exhaustion and pain that was caused from the virus.

Jaff asked out loud to himself as he sat back down onto the ground, "So, Jack went to find some of the people on my list and I told him where to send them."

Suddenly, Jimmy came back into the tent as he replied, "I heard what you said and that is correct. I got a letter from him that has all of the names of people he has found and sent to Fire Hill."
