Knight's Quest

Chapter XIII: The Mad Man

~Beginning of Part 2~

In the land of Glenwood in the world of Palaedom, there lived a brave knight. He was sent on a quest, killed the king, and overthrew the almighty Writer. The Writer had to face a dark warlock, befriend an assassin, and save her sister. He has escaped the castle, an inn, and a jail, all in a pointless hope of freedom. He has killed many side characters and one that I found dear to my heart. He has found love, or that's what the readers believe. Now he stands on a hill, hoping that his "love" can be saved by the power of the new and better Writer. He is a mad man on the run, always running.

Very nice recap, but can you get back to the story. I don't think the readers want to hear the same story again.

Impatient geez, I just wanted to start part two off nicely.

No one cares. What happens next?

Fine.*Ahem* The bright light falls from the sky, covering you and Diamond. When it fades away, Diamond opens her eyes. Her wound is gone, with no sign of blood. Diamond smiles and looks into your face "Nice new hair, and when did you shave your beard off?"

Yes, I'm not bald anymore. "I didn't. Nathaniel did."

"I love you."

I stand her back up.

She gives you a big hug and whispers into your ear. "Thank you so much, I knew our love would save us in the end."

"Well actually it was..."

"Shhhh, No need for that. We are together and alone now."

"Great." I stop hugging her.

She holds your hands and looks up to you. "If this is to go any farther, there's something that I need to tell you."

"What is it?"

"Do you remember a few days ago when I fought Drakkar and I was a hideous monster?"

"Indeed."

"Well, I wanted to tell you what happened after you saved my sister."

"Proceed."

"Well, Drakkar and I fought for a while. It was strange, because I had never fought before. I think it must have been the magic used on me. I turned out to be too strong for him. He was getting desperate, I could tell by the look on his face. He has doing all sorts of things, shooting all types of spells. Lots of them hurt, but I was able to fight for some reason. It was as if they were making me stronger.He shot one last spell at me while I was standing by the window, and it returned me back to my original form. I thought that I had lost, but Drakkar looked very scared and weak. He disappeared in a cloud of smoke and I never saw him again. I don't know why he left, he could have easily killed me then and there. Shortly afterwards my sister showed up and helped me out of that wretched castle. We slept in one of the ruined buildings, and that's when I had a dream."

"Continue with your tale."

"My dream was about you Drake. It was really weird, I didn't know what to make of it. In the dream you ran towards me and hugged me, and kissed me. Then a wind blew me away into the moon. The moon felt like it was on fire. Then a booming voice said all around "The Midnight sun is the medical cure, but not forever so. The fire will consume again, and destroy the love you know." Then I woke up to see Paul outside our building. I thought he was a nice guy at the time. I had no idea he would end up trying to kill us."

"Anything else?"

"Well, after we met Paul he told us of his plan of defeating Drakkar. We told him that Drakkar was gone and that we were looking for our friend. Okay, I said that last part, my sister just wanted to leave the city. Paul said that you had gone the other way, so we headed in the direction down the road until we found you. That was in the late afternoon. You were just laying there on the ground. When I saw your face, that was when I realized that I loved you. You had saved my sister and now it was my turn to save you. We quickly brought you to the inn to save you. It wasn't until the next day that you woke up, and well, you know what happens next."
