I followed the tracks. It wasn't that hard. They wanted me to find them after all. As I jogged through the forest I was thinking about the rules. They were something that Elizabeth and I had sworn on in blood when i was old enough to understand. The first was don't take risks. The second was believe in Lorien and trust each other and the third was never get cocky. Oops. I slow down, thinking about it. Can I really defeat a horde of Mogs in their home court? Be confident in your abilities was what Elizabeth always said to me. I steeled myself, determined to kill them all.

A while later I came to a cave. Ok. A cave was an understatement. It was more like a mountain. A hollow mountain. Found you.

I crept down to the entrance, holding my breath. I knew I didn't have much time. I raised my hands and lightning flashed in the sky. Smiling grimly, i swept my hand down, blowing the heavily barred gates to smithereens, the guards turning to dust under the intensity of the bolt. I ran inside.

As a Mog came round the corner, I grabbed it with my telekinesis and told it to tell me where my chest was. It led me down a tunnel into a huge cavern. There were chains on the wall and blood on the floor. I shivered. Sitting in the corner of the room was my chest. I killed the mog leading me. No time for sympathy now. I looked around the room properly. There were two mogs talking. One looked almost human and the other I thought was a commander. They were talking about a girl.

"She didn't tell us much we didn't already know, And now we've lost our leverage. Her cepan was quiet until the end. " The other replied. "What number was she"

"Number 6"

I froze, my heart hammering in my chest. There had been a garde here. But focus on the chest. I waited until they had left and sprinted across the room for my chest. I grabbed it and ran. Through the hall, passing the doors until I came to the cell block that I had seen on the way in. As I charged through the door, an alarm went off. Oh shoot. Here's the trap. I heard something approaching.

I spun around hands up. There was a huge group of mogs. At least 50. They charged.

My mind worked on autopilot, flinging them into the air handfulls a a time, I raised my hands to the sky. Nothing happened. Maybe I was to far away! I focused on the flames from small explosions. they grew. Oh yeah. I can work with that. I spread the flames from mog to mog, incinerating them all. I levitated myself using telekinesis and unleashed a huge blast that knocked them all off their feet. I ran, sending mogs flying in every direction as I powered through. I sprinted out of the entrance, running back the way i came. through the forest and jumped into the truck. Elizabeth was sitting there, grabbing all our stuff together and screamed as I landed beside her. she seemed happy to see me. time for stories later though. I told her what to do. We searched the car thoroughly until I found it. under the seat in the back. a small white disk, beeping with green light. I picked it up, throwing it so hard it probably landed in the next town. I vaulted into the front seat and we were off. travelling to Chicago. I wonder what we would find there.
