Wits of The Knights (Aphmau Fanfiction)

Chapter 14~ A New Friend

We all traveled back to Phoenix Drop along the path, Laurence not looking at me once. Again only the pattering of feet surrounded us as we travelled along the path soon passing through the gates of Phoenix Drop an entering a city. The smell sweet through me again and I sighed breathing it in. We were passing through old Pheonix Drop but it still smelt the same. I may distrust auras but I love aromas and smells. So we passed through the old village with all the broken down houses. But as we passed through I noticed the plaza through the corner of my eye. So I waved my hand and ran off to the market place and straight up the hill to the Irene statue. A girl with blonde hair and magenta shirt stood in front of the statue praying to it.
"A-Aphmau... Hey!" She said still staring at the statue.
"Umm, I'm Auria not Aphmau..." Introduced myself awkwardly.
"Oh sorry, I'm Emmalyn" She smiled as she turned around pushing her glasses further up her nose.
"I can go get her for you if you wish me too"
"No that's not necessarily, where are you from? I haven't met you before."
"I'm from Meteli, may I ask what you wanted to tell Aphmau?" I dodged her question seeing as I didn't know her well.
"I'm getting married and I wanted to ask her to be my maid of honour." She whispered to me. Aphmau was walking up the hill and I sprinted to the other side of the statue ducking down out of sight and Emmalyn quickly spun to look at the statue again. "A-Aphmau! You're back! I heard word you were here!" She exclaimed facing the statue.
" Yeh, word travels fast... Small town, Donna had asked um if I had the chance to speak with you and she just like uh you had something to tell me I guess..."
"...S-She did..? Did she say anything..?" Emmalyn asked Aphmau nervously. I gave Emmalyn an encourage glance and she nodded breathing in and out.
"No." Aphmau replied quizzically, "Aside from the fact that you wanted to talk to me"
"Whew! That's a relief! I suppose Donna isn't as big of a blabbermouth as she makes herself out to be... I'm glad because I wanted to tell you this myself." Emmalyn replied shrugging happily to me. And I gave her a small thumbs up.
"A-are? Is everything okay? What's up?" Aphmau asked even more confused.
"...Well... KENMUR AND I ARE GETTING MARRIED!" She screamed. Wait... KENMUR! Did she mean, Kenmur who had a crush on Cadenza when we were little? Kenmur who always was creating and inventing new things? That Kenmur? I was taken aback where was he I didn't here the rest of the conversation. I took a few steps back and fell down the hill. Screamed and yelling at the top of my lungs. My legs and arms were scraping of every twigs and branch in sight as I tumbled down the hill. I heard Aphmau yelling at the top of the hill, not about me though.
When I finally reached the bottom ever inch of skin on my body was covered in blood. And I had a huge scar running down my leg, also on on my chest. My clothing was ripped and my hair had blood,leaves and sticks through it. My face had a scratch going from the top rip of my head ripping past to the corner of my nose. And on top of that it all stung badly. I could hear muttering as to figures walked out of the trees I held back a scream.
"Who a-a-are y-y-y-you?" I stuttered not moving.
"I'm Shay, I work for Zane... I'm a bounty hunter..." A girl whispered.
"And I'm her friend Cath!" The other one said, she had light brown hair and blue eyes. Next to her stood a wyvern and she had a bow slung over her body with a pouch of arrows. I gulped, they work for Zane?
"Z-z-Zane?" I stuttered again.
"Yes, Zane... Honestly he's mean." Shay muttered. Her friend Cath nodding.
"So she ran away otherwise she would kill everyone." Cath blurted out, realising what she had said she Covered her mouth nodding.
"Who are you? And are you okay? Your really bloody." Shay asked me.
"I'm Auria. I'm just stinging I just fell down that hill." I pointed to the hill I had just fallen down.
"Well hi Auria want a hand up?" Cath offered her hand for me to get up. I took the offer and she pulled me up. I gave her a grateful smile and she smiled back at me.
"Let's take you to get fixed up at Pheonix Drop." Shay said and started to walk off, Cath quickly followed and limped behind them. It really stung it was like fire that didn't leave burn marks. It was like a wasp sting. My body bled badly with the 3 worst bleeding most. My leg, chest, and face. We made it out of the forest and walked following the wall of the new village.
"Auria! Are you okay it looks as if you just fell off a cliff!" Laurence exclaimed.
I hissed at him, "That's because I did!"
"Oh... Um everyone is at plaza..." He looked at me then Cath and Shay. "You're not going to make it there are you?"
"Do you think I am!" I growled.
"Who these two?" He asked me.
Luckily for him before I could scream at my younger brother, they spoke for me, "I'm Shay, this is Cath" I was glad they didn't include the Zane, bounty hunter part.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Laurence, Auria's brother." He replied, giving me a smile with I returned. My body warmed and my heart glowed. I'm his sister!
"Oh my Irene! What happened to you Auria!" A squeak of a voice came behind me it was, Alexis!
"Alexis!" I spun around. "I fell down a hill."
A new voice came up, "Come with me, I'll fix you up." A girl with brown hair smiled at me.
Laurence smiled sweetly at her, "Thank you very much..."
