20. On Our Way To Dormatian 🧚🏼‍♀️

After a great night's sleep,the trio wake up refreshed and feeling good.

" Ahh..my back aches," Elias stretches.

Well,not all of them.

" Look alive people..." Alex said as he stands.

Diana yawns and stretches.

Elias gets up and dusts his body. Diana yawns again and gets up.

" So,how was your night?" Alex approached Diana with a huge grin.

" It was surprisingly... comfortable?," she answers as she stretches.

" Well, I'm glad you enjoyed your night's rest," he said with excitement.

" You're oddly excited," Diana points out with amusement.

" I know.... it's weird," Alex said with a huge grin.

Diana Chuckles nervously.

" Now,if you'll excuse me..I have this sudden urge to go into the woods...bye!" he waved and smiled before skipping into the woods.

Diana folds her lips and sighs. She then looks at Elias who's washing his face in the river. She then remembers that she gave him a hard night yesterday and feels the need to apologize.

With a flustered feeling,she braces up and walks towards him.

Upon hearing the subtle footsteps,he turns abruptly.

Her heart skips a beat at the way the water rolls off his chiseled face.

" Uhm.." she coughs and avoids his gaze.

" Can I help you?," Elias asked with a little suspicion.

She looks down and answers.

" Nothing...is just that I came to apologize for what happened last night," she says feeling remorse.

" What happened last night?," he asked with a fake smile.

She looks up at him with a confused look.

" The kicking,making you run and the sending you flying into a tree?," She reminds.

* oh that!.pfft <he scoffs> I'm over that," he says.

Diana pauses for a moment and examines him.

" Are you lying?" She asks.

" Me?... lie?...pfff< he scoffs again and smiles as he put a hand on his waist>

" Now I just feel like you're sarcastic," Diana airs.

" Me? Sarcastic?...I have never been sarcastic in my life...I don't even know what that word means...I will never be sarcastic to you..like never ever..." he blabbed and spoke in an innocent tone at his last word.

" So... we're alright?" she asks.

Elias nods his head with a fake wide smile on his face.

" Sooo we can start over and be friends?," she asks and slowly stretches her hand for a handshake.

" Of course," he takes her hand. " And don't worry..were going to do a lot of friend things together," he reassured her with a fake smile.

" Cool," Diana said with gladness. She was happy to start over.

" We could prank each other,"

Diana smiles.

" Kick each other," he said with a smile.

" And play a game called Catapult me into a tree " he said placing the invisible words in the air.

" Okay?," She said a little freaked out. " Glad we could put things behind us," she said with uncertainty.

Elias tilts his head and smiles.

Alex comes back with a brown bag.

" Hey guys,is it weird that I found this bag just lying in the forest," Alex asks.

Upon hearing him,Elias walks to him.

" Yes..yes it is," Elias answers plainly.

Alex keeps quiet and stares at Elias without any emotion on his face.

" What's with the-

" - I'm taking it anyway," Alex says and walks over to Diana's side.

" So...how are we going to get to Dormatian?" Diana asks.

" Well,Horsiee would take us" Alex answers. " But ever since he dropped us here he's been nowhere to be found.

Diana sighs.

" But that's not a problem because we have a shape shifting princess," Alex said excitedly.

" huh?" Diana voiced out.

" yeah,huh?" Elias repeated.

" please Diana..." he begged with a sad face. " let us ride you...

" yeah...you don't want to be saying that to an adult," Elias said.

Alex glances at Elias.

" Please Diana.." Alex begged with energy.

" Okay..fine," she yields.

" Yes!" Alex leaps in joy.

" Someone's a bit hyperactive today," Elias notices as he folds his arms.

" Back away.." Diana tells Alex.

Alex gives her space to do her thing.

She closes her eyes and brown smoke covers her. She flaps her wings as she emerges as a dragon.

" yeah, I'm not riding that" Elias said.

" Come on, it'll be fun.." Alex begs. " Our destiny awaits," he said with a sudden heroic tone." On our way to Dormatian!" he said as he rushes up her back.

" And just like that...I wish those shadow creatures killed me," he said to himself and climbs Diana's back.

Diana let's out a low growl and takes of!
