Welrich nodded. "Yes, I promise I will convince them and we won't tell anyone a thing." Welrich said. Berry nodded aprovenly and took back his hand. Realising that Welrich his hands were tied behind his back so he couldn't shake his hand, like Berry had wanted him to. "Alright." Berry said. "Wel, that is great now we don't have a hostage." Jack said. "No, we don't have a hostage but we have an ally." Berry said. "And that might even be better." Berry smiled at Welrich, the smile made chills run down Welrich's spine. "Mollie can you untie him? We will return to the village tomorow. And Welrich don't even think about running away." Berry said. Mollie sighed but gave in and untied Welrich. Mollie grabbed Welrich's arm and pulled him onto his feet.

"I am suprised he didn't try to run away last night." Berry said to Mollie the next morning. "Wel, you told him not to and he is probably scared that you will do something to him or his friends. Sinds you know where they live as you have told us yesterday." Mollie said. "We should go back to the village. Are you guys coming with us?" Berry asked while he grabbed Welrich by his pols. "I think taking Welrich with you is enough." Mollie said. "Ehm, Mollie that is not how you pronouns his name." Berry said he was confused sinds Jack had said it corectly. "You pronouns it like Welrig." "Oh, but that is not what he wrote down on the paper, when I asked him what his name was." Mollie said. "But are you coming with us or not. It might be a good idea because they are also with three people then and we might make a change if we are also with three." Berry said. "yes, but look at what we are wearing. If we walk around town like this. People will know we are nightshaders." Jack said pointing at his clothes. "Maybe you can take some of Sam's or Cray's clothes, but you might not fit in it. Sinds you are very tall." Welrich said. "Okay, but we need to get into the city without anyone noticing us." Jack said. "Welrich and I will go and get some clothes from the others." Berry said. "If we don't come back in an hour. They probably betrayed me and you need to come free me or go back to the camp and let meget executed." Berry and Welrich went back to the city. They walked throught the gate into the village. The two went straight to Cray's house. When they arrived they heared screaming from inside.

"It is not my fault he is a nightshader!"                                                                                                                         "No, but it is your fault that you guys tried to capture him and han him over tot the king and queen! I don't know what Welrich sees in you, but al I see is an idiot who can't think straight!"

Berry opened the door and stepped inside. Sam and Eva where in the middle of the room. They stood infront of eachother and screamed at eachother. Cray stood uncomfortable in the corner of the room. Welrich immediatly went towards him. "You are back." Cray wishpered happily. Then he noticed Berry was also there. "Hey, guys." Cray said and Sam and Eva looked in his way. They saw Berry and Eva hugged him. "I thought something had happened to you! I thought these idiots had hurt you." Eva said. "You know I am a nightshader right?" Berry asked. "Yes." Eva answered. " And you don't mind at all?" Berry asked. "No, I don't mind." Eva said. "I mean I am friends with these guys to. And they are hunters. They are kind of also criminals."
