The Shadow Knight

PROLOGUE

It was a calm cool night in the middle of a place I cannot recall. A dark blue SUV was going along the empty highway. A family of three was on their way to meet their relative.

"Mom, Dad are we going to celebrate at Aunt CeCe's house?" Asked the impatient twelve-year-old.

She was getting restless in the back seat of the car. With the battery of her tablet dead, there was nothing else for her to do.

"Yes, Yes, yes! For the millionth time yes! It's your birthday and Aunt CeCe missed you. Geez! We are almost there," grumbled her father at the steering wheel.

The father, unfortunately, became the girl's new entertainment for the last two hours.

"Hahaha! You two are so funny!" laughed her mother in the front seat, "We will have a blast and a half. But I agree, your father is driving a bit slow. Maybe the surprise is not yet ready."

" MOM! Don't laugh. We are not going to be late. Dad promised," protested the daughter.

" Alright, Alright girls we will be there ...." paused the man.

"You sensed that too? Do you think we can lose them?" Whispered his wife.

"Let's take the country road," he replied.

They turn at the intersection at the highway and went onto the dirt path. A shady-looking car turned onto the road. The father sped up a bit and so did the unknown vehicle.

"Stop up ahead, honey, no need to run. We can hold our own against them." said his determined wife.

That scared the young girl and decided to call her Aunt CeCe. The car stopped and her parents got out to face their chasers. The scary car stopped, and two unknown people came out. They began talking but the little girl couldn't hear a thing. All she saw was their mouths moving and the angry and frustrated looks on their faces.

" Hello, T.? El? Where are you?" asked Aunt CeCe on the phone.

" Aunty, Mom, and Dad are... " poor girl didn't even finish her sentence.

There was a huge bang from outside scaring her out of her wits. Looking out the tinted window, she saw that a fight had started right beside the cars. Scared of being caught in the cross-fires, she got out quietly and hid in a nearby cluster of bushes.

"Hello! Deary, are you there?" screamed CeCe on the other end of the call.

"Yes, Aunt CeCe, come quick. They need help, I'm scared." whimpered the lonely girl.

The call ended as the girl watched her mother, a dark elf princess, and her father, a light elf prince, battle two dark-cloaked men. They were called Executors based on her parents' description. The battle looked almost over with her parents the ultimate victor.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, another one appeared and knocked the dark and light elf down. Before they could react, there was a sudden explosion from both vehicles. The blast was so strong knocking the hidden girl unconscious.
