Our Journey...//AphmauXLaurance~

A Stranger...?

This chapter is based on the video at the top HOWEVER I changed somethings okay enjoy!!

Garroth's POV~

I saw Aphmau headed to cut another tree down to get wood when suddenly she is pulled by someone I saw her trying to scream but she couldn't. I told Laurance who was next to me and told him what I saw. We both took out our swords and followed her.....

Aphmau's POV~

I was trying to get wood to build a little tree house for Levin and Malachi when.. This man grabbed me and pulled me and I tried to scream for help... but my scream was only a muffle I couldn't scream.... I was scared... worried I'd never see my children again... Then the man pinned me to the a tree Holding a sword to my neck...

"WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?!" I asked yelling.

"First off I want you to stop yelling or ill kill you."  The Man said.

"F-fine w-what do you want from me?!" I asked trying to lower my voice.

"I just want to help you." the man said.

"Help me ?! you have a funny way of showing it by holding this to my neck." I said even louder.

"I could tell if I take this sword and put it away you will take your chance to attack me based on your stance.." the man said.

"Now you have a communication amulet am I correct?" he asked me.

"How did yo-"

"Now isn't the time for explanations know that you and your village are in danger that amulet is active and whoever you have been talking to someone else has been listening to your conversations.." he said very seriously.

"Who could possibly.."

"I'm not sure yet. my theory is if its Zane, your guards brother from O'kasis." The man added.

"I'm sure of it.." he said.

"what can I do?" I asked.

"For now just wait ill keep an eye out for any strange things and be sure to warn you." he said as he removed the sword from my neck.

"What is your name if you don't mind me asking."

"I tend to keep that information to myself." He said.

"Alright." I said walking away.

"Do not tell anyone of me or there will be consequences." he stated.

"Okay... g-good night..." I said nervously as I walked home.

Garroth's POV~

I finally saw Aphmau walking passed the plaza.

"APHMAU!" I yelled.

"APHMAU?! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?" Laurance asked.

"Cutting wood..." she responded.

"You look very pale did something happen we saw someone taking you away Are you okay?! I asked. worried.

"N-No I'm f-fine....just haven't slept...." she responded.

"but you were fine this morning... Aphmau what happened we cant help if we don't know what's wrong." Laurance said in a calming voice.

"I-It's....uhhh...." she stuttered as she turned around and looked behind her seeing something in the distance by a tree.

"Aph?" Laurance asked.

"I-Its Nothing! I-I G-Got to go Home!! S-See Y-You Guys S-Soon!! she said running home.

Laurance and I starred at the direction Aphmau was looking at and saw a shadow then it vanished quickly and we didn't have enough time to see were it went. We looked at each other worried.

"We should guard Aphmau's House for tonight so she doesn't feel scared, Ill go tell Dante." I said to Laurance.

"Okay I'll head to Aphmau's house right now to check on her." Laurance said."

"Okay see you there." I said as I rushed to the safe hold.

Aphmau's POV~

I'm so complex I have emotions everywhere I don't know what to think about the stranger he was holding a sword to my throat and then he asked to help me.... do I trust him? I don't even know ugh! this is so confusing... What if he does something to the boys while I'm sleeping?! I need to go check on them NOW!

I rushed out the door and bumped into someone......
