As they entered the cottage, her grandmother wasn't there. Riley was starting to slowly panic, "OK, I WILL NOT PANIC, HAPPY THOUGHTS, HAPPY THOUGHTS..."
Riley's Point of View
MY GRANDMOTHER!!!!!!!!!!! I AM TOTALLY FREAKING OUT ALL RIGHT, THAT'S MY GRNADMOTHER MISSING! I was breathing in and out, in and out, then Zhion gave me a paper bag, "Do it in there." I just rolled my eyes at him and took the paper bag and there I breathed in and out. Just as I was doing that, I saw prints and marks of what seemed like.... Claws, marks of blood all over the bed, and the last clue I saw, was a sword. I picked it up and examined the sword carefully. It was not just a sword, but the sword with the symbol of the Southern Kingdom of Deloniah. I gasped as I quickly dropped the sword, and it made a loud 'clank!' sound. Zhion quickly turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" I was really traumatized that I couldn't say anything. Zhion got impatient, "WHAT is it?!" I quickly picked up the sword with the symbol of Deloniah and shoved the sword right into his hand. He examined the sword and saw the symbol. The last words he said beofre we left the house were, "THIS IS NOT GOOD. COME ON, LET'S CHECK TO SEE IF THE REST OF THE ENCHANTED FOREST CREATURES ARE SAFE!" I nodded as I took grandmother's old bow and arrow and we headed out.
We sighed as we saw that the rest of the enchanted forest was doing fine. "BUT HOW CAN I RELAX WHEN MY GRANDMOTHER IS MISSING?!" That's what my mind kept saying. Just then I was surprised when Zhion was glaring at me and communicating at my mind, "CAN YOU STOP WORRYING?!" I glared at him and replied to him in his mind, "FINE, CAUSE IT IS NOT YOUR GRANDMOTHER WHO IS MISSING!" After I freaked out in my mind, he suddenly took out his sword and pointed it at my neck, "WHAT did I tell you?!" I raised both of my hands up and rolled my eyes and kept quiet. "That's what I thought." He said. We then went back through the meadow of the giggle flowers and glowing butterflies and fairies to check if the creatures were alright, but it was worse! The once giggling flowers, who laugh joyfully, was now crying in sorrow and pain. The glowing butterflies and fairies that once lit up the dark meadow of the enchanted forest, isn't glowing anymore. "This isn't good." He said. I panicked again, "ISN'T GOOD!? THIS IS TERRIBLE! NOW HOW WILL I EVER GIVE MY GRANDMOTHER HER FOOD!? I EVEN PUT SO MUCH THOUGHT IN IT!" He just glared at me and I instantly calmed down. Now we'll just have to find my grandmother.
Zhion's Point of View
What is with her panicking anyway? It's not even helping. I am already trying to help her find her grandmother. When I looked at her, she was holding back her tears forming in her eyes. I glared at her, "You know you can cry, right?" She then suddenly bursted into tears and started crying. Ugh I had no choice, she needed comfort. I hugged her, "Don't worry, we'll find your grandmother." Ugh I can't help it when I see cute girls cry. WAIT WHAT AM I SAYING!? I AM in an arranged marriage... With the SPOILED PRINCESS OF DELONIAH... Why did I have to marry that spoiled princess? I'd rather marry Riley. UGH THERE I DID IT AGAIN! I mean, I never even saw her uncloak her face before. I mean, she knows how I look, why can't she show me how she look? And... do I... Really like Riley?
