Zanmau

Chapter 5: The Companions

Aphmau's POV

All I could hear was my breath. In. Out. In. Out. Finally Laurence came up and put his hand on my shoulder. I must have changed back after the Old Man disappeared.  "Aphmau... what was that" Laurence asked. "I- I don't know, I-" I responded. Suddenly I felt the same feeling I felt when I walked through the walls. The same tiredness that shot through my body. I reached out my hand to catch myself  as I fell but all the sudden I stopped. I turned my head and Laurence wasn't holding me. I shook my head. "Where are we?" I asked. "Um not to sure. I was walking the border walls and saw you walking out. I ran after you and I saw your eyes. Yours eyes were black. I followed you to here.". Well lets walk the direction you came.

I saw the border walls approaching as we ran toward it. Garroth was on top of the walls and when he saw us he jumped up out of his post and climbed down the vines and ran toward me. "Where have you guys been" I asked upset as if we had been taking a walk alone. They both liked me. I liked them as a friend. "Just a little fight." I said but then Laurence burst into explanation. After he blabbed out every word I could see Garroth's face twisted in confusion. I smiled as saw his face. "Aph, what was that thing you turned into?" Garroth said with pure confusion. Annoyance bubbled inside of me. "How should I know!? Look Laurence I'm leaving tomorrow so go ahead and give me your present!" I said practically screaming. "Oh okay... let me go get it" Laurence said quietly.
