NIGHT

After getting away from King Raynold and his armies, Zussorader, the Marc and the Orges (Zussorader took to war) meet with Philip, Lilia, and the Orges and Orgmus (Philip took to war), and they camp in a forest.

Inside Zussorader's tent, Zussorader, Philip, Lilia, and the Marc sat down around a table, and Zussorader's staff was next to him. Princess Esther was escorted into Zussorader's tent by two Orges that were holding her arms each, still bound in the hands and eyes, and the bruises on her face are now healing.

The Orges let go of her arms as they made her stand in front of the table opposite Zussorader and the Orges stood behind her. Zussorader said to princess Esther ''hello Sa'er''.

Princess Esther flinched on hearing the voice that talked to her. ''Where am I?'' princess Esther (scared) asked Zussorader.

''You don't need to be afraid princess, we mean no harm'' said Zussorader to the princess.

''Then why are my hands and eyes bound'' princess Esther asked Zussorader.

''We had to take precautions because of you. You may not know who you are but we do and we are aware of your powers'' said Zussoarader.

''Who are you''? asked Princess Esther.

''I am Zussorader and it is an honor to be before you after a thousand years of your kind extinction'' said Zussoarder.

''What are you talking about, and why am I here?'' asked princess Esther.

''My master has waited patiently for a very long time for your return and he is looking forward to meeting you'' said Zussorader.

''Are referring to Marcelos?'' asked princess Esther.

''Yes princess'' said Zussorader.

''What would Marcelos want with me?'' asked Princess Esther.

''You will find out when you see him and I only brought you here to tell you that, if you comply with us we won't have to hurt you'' said Zussorader to princess Esther. At the same time, princess Esther tried to read Zussorader's mind and figures out that they are two other minds which are that of Philip and Lilia, and she read them all.

Zussorader said in his mind ''at last, with her blood master will return back and a new world shall be born''. Philip said in his mind ''she doesn't look so powerful to me but just an ordinary princess''. Lilia said in her mind ''I don't know why we have to bind her hands and eyes, she looks weak. I can even take her by myself and maybe she is not even the Sa'er'', then she heard another voice inside Lilia's mind that kept saying ''please help me, free me''.

After reading their minds, princess Esther found out that they need her blood to wake Marcelos up and that they all think she has these powers that she has no idea about, and because of that powers they had to bind her eyes and hands. She also found out they are calling her the Sa'er and wondered how come one person's mind has two voices.

Princess Esther asked Zussorader ''what do you mean when you call me the Sa'er?".

''That is because that is who you are'' said Zussorader to the princess.

''What is a Sa'er?'' princess Esther (curious) asked Zussorader.

''You are gonna have to figure out that yourself'' said Zussorader to princess Esther and told the Orges to take the princess, and the Orges left with princess Esther.



Just as the Orges left the tent with princess Esther, the Marc said to Zussorader in ancient language ''I can feel the power that lives in her and that is making me fear her. She is more powerful than you could ever think''.

Hearing that Philip and Lilia were shocked that the Marc can be scared of princess Esther who is just an ordinary girl to them.

''Master said she will be powerful because all the powers of the other dead Sa'ers will now live in her'' said Zussorader.

''But she looks weak to me'' said Lilia to Zussorader.

''That is because she hasn't fully know who she is and what she is capable of '' said Zussorader to Lilia.

''Are you saying we should afraid of her?'' Philip asked Zussorader.

''Yes and be careful around her. How many soldiers do we have left?'' Zussorader asked Philip.

''200 at least and 100 Orgmus'' said Philip.

''We are really at disadvantage but we will succeed. By morning we begin our journey to master tomb'' said Zussorader to everyone.


Princess Tracy and Hawk were sited on the ground and were talking about how they should escape inside the tent they were placed in (still chain in their hands and the shackle still around Hawk's neck), when the two Orges entered the tent with a girl bound in the eyes and hands, and they both stopped talking.

The Orges sat the girl down on the ground and left the tent, Hawk and princess Tracy looked at the girl in a strange way and looked back at each other to continue their conversation.

Hawk said to princess Tracy ''there is no way we can ever get out of here with this on our hands and this on my neck''.

''Our legs aren't tied, we can run'' said princess Tracy to Hawk.

''We won't get anywhere before we will be caught and we don't want to see the other side of Zussorader right now'' said Hawk to princess Tracy.

On hearing that princess Esther asked Hawk and princess Tracy ''am sorry, are you both also prisoners''.

''Yes,'' Hawk answered princess Esther.

''And we are planning our escape'' said Princess Tracy to princess Esther.

''Don't listen to her there is no way we are escaping'' said Hawk to princess Esther.

''I really need to get out of here'' said princess Esther.

''We have been prisoners for months now, there is no way you can. Out there is full of Orges'' said Hawk to princess Esther.

''Why are your eyes bound with a cloth and your hands with a rope?'' princess Tracy asked princess Esther.

''The Orges and Zussorader think they need to so I won't hurt them'' said princess Esther.

''Are you saying if your hands and eyes are not bound you can hurt them?'' princess Tracy asked princess Esther thinking that might be their chance to escape.

''No I can't, they are wrong. They thought I have these powers that I can use to hurt them with my eyes and hands which I don't think I have'' said princess Esther.

''If Zussoarder thinks you do, it means you do'' said Hawk to princess Esther.

''Even if I do, I don't know how to use it and I don't even know the kind of powers they think I have'' said princess Esther.

''I guess you are stuck with us then'' said Hawk to princess Esther.

''Why are you guys held prisoners?'' princess Esther asked Hawk.

''Zussorader said we will be useful to him so he kept us as a prisoner instead of killing us'' said Hawk to princess Esther.

Just then princess Esther heard princess Tracy saying in her mind ''I wonder what position my father will be in now if he thought I am dead. I wish I had never joined Hawk'', then she tried to read Hawk's mind but she couldn't and wondered why but knows Hawk must be special.



King Raynold, Lord Emmanuel, and Zussorender with the generals, wizards, the light army, and the soldiers continued to track the trail Orges left behind which is their footprints to find them and eradicate them once and for all.

Zussorader, Philip, the Marc, and Lilia with the Orges, the Orgmus, and princess Esther, Hawk, and princess Tracy in captive continued their journey to Marcelos tomb to wake him up. Princess Esther, Hawk, and princess Tracy became friends in captivity even though they don't know who princess Esther is and she also doesn't know who they are. The three of them spent time talking, cracking jokes, and smiling with each other to make them forget they are in a bad situation and they can't escape.

Noah and princess Camelia spent most of their time with Lythia and Gabriel, and in the library trying to find out about the Sa'er but they still haven't found any book or scrolls that talk about the Sa'er, and they haven't seemed to give up. Being together all the time and the way princess Camelia acted around Noah made Noah figure out that princess Camelia liked him but he pretend not to know. Prince Noah also asked princess Camelia about what happened the night she slept in his room but she said that Noah had to figure it out himself.

Ramsay, Benjamin, the other princes, and princess Kylie also continued to follow the Orges' footprints that start from the west city gate, to find and rescued princess Esther before the great King and the others returned back home.



A FEW DAYS LATER

By morning, Zussorader, Philip, Lilia, the Marc, the Orges, and the Orgmus get in front of the tomb where Marcelos is buried (which is located in a forest) and they saw the entrance door of the tomb has been covered by branches of trees that were around the tomb. Zussorader, Philip, and Lilia got down from the horse and the Marc got down from the phoenix bird, Zussorader told the Orges on foot to clear the tomb door path.

On seeing where they are Hawk said to himself out loud ''what the hell are we doing here?''.

Princess Esther (still bound in the eyes and hands) and Tracy heard what Hawk said and Princess Esther asked Hawk ''where are we?''.

''We are in front of Marcelos tomb'' said Hawk.

''You can't be serious, how can you know that?'' said princess Tracy to Hawk.

''I am serious and you don't need to know about that'' said Hawk to princess Tracy.

''I don't believe you. Only those who have the map to Marcelos tomb can know and be sure of Marcelos tomb, and those who were present when he was buried'' said princess Tracy (in disbelief) to Hawk.

''He is right. We are at Marcelos tomb'' said princess Esther.

''How can you believe him, you can't even see where we are'' said princess Tracy to princess Esther.

''Because I heard them when they said that my blood can wake Marcelos up'' said princess Esther.

''What kind of joke are you also trying to pull now'' said princess Tracy to princess Esther.

''They are wrong if they tell you that. It is only one person's blood that can wake Marcelos up and she died a long time ago'' said Hawk to princess Esther.

''Can I know who that person is?'' princess Esther asked Hawk.

''Am sorry I can't talk about her. But believe me, this is Marcelos tomb and if they plan to wake him up, they won't succeed'' said Hawk.

''You are always hiding things, Hawk. There is so much secret you are keeping'' said princess Tracy to Hawk.

''I have to'' said Hawk.


Ramsay, Benjamin, the other princes, and princess Kylie follow the Orges' footprints to the tomb and they saw the Orges not far from them. They all get down from the horse with their swords and walked close to the Orges. On getting close to the Orges they all hid somewhere, they peeped from where they hid and saw Zussorader, Philip, Lilia, and the Marc standing, they also saw princess Esther, princess Tracy and Hawk in captivity.

Benjamin was confused to see Zussorader with the Orges and the Marc but was shocked and surprised on seeing Hawk and he said to himself out loud ''this can't be possible''.

The princes and princess Kylie heard Benjamin and looked at him to see that something was wrong with him. Ramsay asked Benjamin ''what is it?''.

''Nothing'' answered Benjamin and continue looking at Hawk wondering how come he is still alive.

Prince Mike asked Benjamin ''who is that old man, the girl, and the one wearing a helmet next to the man that lead the Orges to attack the city''.

''The one wearing the helmet is called the Marc'' said Ramsay.

''The girl is the one that infiltrated the palace with the Orges and took princess Esther, and the old man is Zussorader'' said Benjamin.

''So this what a Marc looks like'' said prince Redrick looking at the Marc.

''Seeing Zussorader with the Orges and Marc means he already join hands with them'' said Ramsay.

''Why would Zussorader join hands with the Orges and Marc, it doesn't sound right'' said Benjamin.

''I guess you don't know this. Zussorader stole the mind crystal'' said princess Kylie to Benjamin, Benjamin was surprised on hearing that.

Prince Kinsley asked Benjamin ''what do you think they are doing here?''.

''You guys should know am not a god that knows answers to all. I don't know why they are here'' said Benjamin.

''That looks like a tomb'' said prince Mike looking at what the Orges were clearing the branches off.

''What do we do now?'' prince Redrick asked Ramsay.

''We can't attack them with just a few numbers, we have to wait till there is an open chance that we can take. For now, we watch'' said Ramsay.

Just as the Orges were done with clearing the branches of trees that were covering the tomb door, King Raynold, Lord Emmanuel, Zussorender, the Generals, the wizards, the light army, and the soldiers were coming toward the tomb. Zussorader and the others with the Orges all saw them except princess Esther. Princess Tracy and Hawk were happy that at last they will be saved from the Orges and Zussorader.

Ramsay, Benjamin, the other princes, and princess Kylie were all surprised and happy to see King Raynold and the others with the armies, and they all walked to them except Benjamin that stayed behind.

Zussorader said to the Marc in ancient language ''you stop them and bring me the Sa'er''.

Princess Esther was taken by two Orges and was given to Lilia, the Marc unsheathed its sword tied to the side of the phoenix bird and said to all the Orges in ancient language ''form a battle formation''.

The Orges on Orgmus turned their Orgmus toward King Raynold's direction and his armies, also the Orges on foot turned toward them. The Marc stood in front of the Orges and next to him were princess Tracy and Hawk on their knees and two Orges behind them with their weapons placed on princess Tracys' and Hawk's necks. At the back of the Marc was the Orges on Orgmus, followed by the Orges on foot then Zussorader with Philip and Lilia holding princess Esther.
