Twisted Tale

Chapter 3 Owl Island

"Duncan where are we going?" Rythia yells as Duncan is having her pack all her things.

"Somewhere safe!" He yells back.

Rythia freezes, "Is it just because Rythian knows that I'm with you?"

Duncan stops too, "Yes and he wants revenge for me planting the nuke Ryth! I can't have you get hurt!"

Rythia glares at her brother, "I can take care of myself!"

"I know you can Ryth, but when he gets angry...he is part Ender!"

Rythia slaps her brother, "So am I you idiot!"

"Ryth calm down, I just don't want you to be hurt by someone who is after me."

Rythia calms down enough to continue he packing, "So where are we going exactly?"

"Owl Island, Hannah and Nilsey will protect you."

"Wait why not HoneyDew Inc or Sips Co? They have better weapons, armor, defenses."

"Hannah knows that you exist."

They finish packing, "How Duncan? I thought that only you knew?"

"She saw you one time when we were younger, and I had to tell her. Because back then, we were dating. Before she chose Lewis."

His eyes darken when he mentions his friend's name, even though they're friends Duncan still holds the grudge of Hannah choosing Lewis.

"Calm down Duncan, lets just go."

"Fine."

They fly for hours, finally reaching Owl Island just as dusk fell.

"Hannah!" Duncan yells.

"So this is Rythia, nice to meet you."

She holds out her hand and she shakes it, "Nice to meet you."

They all fly onto the tree top town, out of view to anyone that can't fly. Which is a lot if people, so they're safe.

"This is your room Rythia," Hannah tells her as she opens a door to a room.

The walls are plain jungle wood, two windows, a bed, a table/desk, a lamp and a rose.

"I....love it," She says slowly.

' 'I will have to decorate it with my items and magic and science stuff.' Rythia thinks

Hannah looks a little deflated, but bounces back with a question for her brother. "Duncan are you going to stay for the night?"

"No Hannah, I have to get back. Keep her safe."

With that Duncan flies off of the platform and back in the direction of his castle, he just can't stay where he could do something stupid. Something stupid that would make him loose all of his friends.

"Ducan!" Rythia calls after her brother.

"Rythia this isn't the last time you'll see him Rythia, don't worry."

Rythia turns to Hannah, "With Rythian after him, Im afraid it will."

Rythia walks into her new room, closing the door behind her.

"What they don't know won't hurt them," Rythia whispers as she holds a wireless remote. The frequency is the same as a teleportor that is in her room at the castle. So she can just set up a teleporter here and she will be able to go back to the castle instantly.

Duncan is passing Sips Co as he grows tired, his flying ring running out of juice. In a blink of an eye Duncan is falling out of the sky, plummeting towards their pool.

A flash of green and he is slowly lowered by Zoey, who is testing out all her new parts. Sjin is running after her and so is Sips, they reach Duncan two minutes later.

"Why is Duncan here?" Sips asks.

"I don't know, he was flying over and just started falling." Zoey says, her voice sounding slightly robotic.

"He looks exhausted so Zoey carry him inside, but don't let him see you."

"Okay."

So Zoey obeys Sjin's instructions, as she has no choice. They did something to her as she was sleeping the second night, something that they will use as an advantage later.

He is laid on the couch and Zoey goes up to her top floor room, pausing for a moment. Her eyes turning their normal color, but they soon turn back to a grayish black.

Inside Zoey's mind their is the real Zoey, the non controlled Zoey. She is trying to break out of the controls that Sjin had put on her. That Zoey knows that Rythian would've fought for her, that he still loves her.

Rythian is plotting, planning, scheming against Duncan. Revenge. Hate. Anger. Sadness. This is what Rythian's world revolves around now. Teddy is making sure he stays safe but he can't stop him from doing the unthinkable, going after Duncan with brute force.
