The Key Of The Goddess Gate

7. to save Jeff

Zack's pov:

What a strange dream of mine.

I was about to get up in bed when suddenly I hear noise outside the house so I took a peek from the window to see what is happening outside the house.

Neithan and Racheal is discussing something and they look so serious.

What are they talking about? Is it something very serious and important?
Huh, well I have to get out to find out what is happening.

I open the door outside then Racheal and Neithan notice me standing at the door, Neithan then approach me.

He wear a cloak and has a two sword on his back. Why is he wearing that?

Neithan have a strange smile on his face. "Good that your finally awake, Zack. Today is the day that we're going out in training."

Training? What training? Wait, oh I remember now. Neithan said I have to train to join the hunter association yesterday. Wait, Why am I joining the hunter association again?

"Oh okay" I emmidietly said.

Racheal then approach us and tap Neithan's shoulder. "Well, I'm not coming with you two. I have an important business to deal with."

Racheal then walks away leaving me and Neithan alone.

Neithan sigh. "I hope she's okay." He mumble.

"What did you say?" I ask

"Nothing, lets go."

Seriously, Racheal has a serious face and it's look so scary though, I think that it's really so important business of her's.

I'm so confused when suddenly Neithan then hold my hand and dragged me somewhere else.

Racheal's pov:

I'm walking down the hill as fast as I could.

I feel so angry that I want to crash that guy's skull into a thousand pieces.

*****Flash back*****

I was packing my weapons for the training with Neithan and Zack in the dark forest for the selection.

I wonder where Jeff went off, he didn't come home since last night and I'm start to get worried about him. I wonder why?

I was about to go inside the house to wake up Zack when suddenly Neithan approach me and handed me a paper.

He didn't look at me and his face is dark and his eyes has a hint of coldness on it.

The paper that Neithan handed me has a red rose imprint on it

I then starts to read it. It says:

Dear friend, if you want to see your old friend dragon again, I want that girl with dark red eyes like blood in the East down the hill alone if you want to see your dragon friend alive.

I raise my eyebrows and sweats then look at Neithan with 'seriously' expression on my face.

"Is this a joke?" I feel my blood boils. I let a dark aura from my body.

Neithan turned pale and statter "n...no I...I'm serious, really, it's not a joke. Jeff is in danger."

My face darkens and my eyes has a killing intent and the has hint of coldness.

"I'm going in the East down the hill like what the guy said, make sure to keep Zack away from any harm." I said seriously.

Neithan hesitant "b..but-"
