'Wake up!' A loud voice yelled from the other side of the door. 'Are you awake yet, lad?!' It was Gnorx 'Gnorx? Is that you?' Mex said while rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. 'Sorry, I just woke up.' 'That's okay.' Gnorx said. 'I came here to tell you that we're not going.' 'What?!' Mex shouted while getting up. 'What do you mean?' 'Well.. You see..' Gnorx sounded sad. 'When you and Lisai left the bar last night, A strange hooded fella came in, and torched the entire place down! Most people were lucky enough to get out. But some weren't. They're still looking for bodies. But, the strange thing was, that this lad came asking for you at the bar first. He told us that whoever would talk to you, had to stop you from going. They're still looking for bodies Mex! It's insane.' Gnorx deeply exhaled, and slammed his fist against the door. He started to, something that was simmilar to crying. 'Wow.. Gnorx...' Mex said, in shock. 'Please, hold on. I'll let you in, and we can discuss everything!' 'Okay pal..' Mex quickly put his shirt on, and got out of bed. ''That's strange... Didn't Lisai sleep her last night?'' He shrugged, and went to open the door.
Mex and Gnorx had taken a seat. Mex had made some tea, trying to calm Gnorx down. He seemed really upset about the bar. 'So?' Mex Asked. 'This hooded guy, He really asked for me?' Mex had a bit of trouble believing that. Not many people knew about him leaving for the Pannack forrest. 'Aye.' Gnorx sighed. 'Everything just happened so fast. And the worst thing, is that I miss me lass so bad!' Gnorx started to cry again, trying to take a big sip from his tea, like it was a beer. But he quickly burned his mouth, and spat tea all over. 'I'm so sorry about that pal.' 'It's okay.' Mex said. ''As long as you're safe. Right?' Gnorx started to cry again. 'It's not about my safety, all I wanted was for her to be safe. I loved her, and I couldn't even protect her!' Gnorx stood up. 'I'm sorry.' He said. 'I must be on my way. But please, don't go to that forrest. Don't let their deaths be in vain.' He took his hat off, and bowed down. ''I'm sorry for your loss, Gnorx..' 'Thanks lad...' He put his hat back on, and went out.
Mex sat down with his cup of tea, and continued his morning. He couldn't shake the feeling that something was going on. Something, or someone, really didn't want him going to Pannack forest. 'What is this?!' A loud voice shouted. 'You're not going to the forest? You didn't gave Christopher the letter. Are you even capable of wiping your own ass?!'' Queenly's armoured high heels could be heard from meter ahead. 'I even wrote you a letter, so. You. Would. Not. Forget!' And there she was. Queenly stormed in, carrying her lance in her right hand, and het brothers ear in the left one. 'Well?' Queenly shouted. 'What do you have to say for yourself?!' She let go of Christophers ear, and pushed him inside. 'Well..' Mex mumbled. 'It's not that easy!' 'NOT THAT EASY?!' Queenly shouted. 'NOT THAT EASY?!' She threw her lance on the ground, nearly hitting her brother. 'You had a piece of paper that you needed to give to my brother. THAT WAS ALL!'
Christopher had curled up in a ball, his 2-handed sword laying somewhere outside, and Queenly had grabbed Mex by his throat. 'You know what I did?!' She shouted. 'I told the king, that I would deliver it to him today. You're making me look like a fool!' 'But please..' Mex begged. 'The fire... The bar.. Gnorx...' 'Maybe if you'd die in that fire, maybe that would've been a good reason. But you're just a weakling!' 'Let him go.' Lisai said. 'If you mess with him. You'll mess with me.' 'Well..' Queenly said in a strangely calm voice. 'My day just keeps getting better and better.' She let go of Mex, and picked up her lance from the ground. ''Why don't you scram? This is for adults only.' 'If it involves my Big brother, i'm a part of it.'' Lisai grabbed her stuffed dog, and took a fighters stance. 'How darling.' Queenly pierced the stuffed animal with her lance, and swung it out of the door. 'Go get it, you piece of filth.' Lisai looked like she was about to cry, but suddenly Queenly fell down. 'You don't get to mess with her.' Mex said. 'You're having a problem with me, not with her.' 'That's quite enough from the both of you!' Queenly recovered quickly, and grabbed the handcuffs from her brothers back pocket. 'In name of the king.' Queenly stated. 'I hereby preform the arrest on Lisai Wanterbrough for attacking, taunting, and insulting a high commander. You will ben sentenced to 4 monts of jail. Come here, sissy.' She handcuffed Lisai, and pointed her lance at Mex. 'One step closer, and I have to get serious.' 'Big Brother!' Lisai shouted 'Don't go to the forest!' 'You better get to that forest. Or she'll face an even worse faith.' Queenly said. 'Anyway, it has been nice catching up, i'll see you if you bring back the corpse of my worthless brother, or the stone. Either way I would be thrilled to see you around. Until then~' Queenly had shut the door behind her, and left the scene. 'She's so mean..' Christopher sobbed. 'I'm sorry for all of this Mex.' Christopher was still curled up on the floor. He hadn't even moved an inch for the entire incident. He probably didn't hear his sister saying all of that. 'It's okay.' Mex sighed. 'I know Queenly won't do her any harm. But we have to get that stone before she changes her mind. Are you.. Up for it?' Mex walked over to the sobbing ball that Christopher had become. And offered him his hand. 'I guess..' Christopher wiped his nose, and took Mex's hand. He got pulled up, and hugged Mex. 'Thank you.' 'It's okay.' Mex said. 'As I said. There is no serious harm done. And I know that she won't hurt her. If I had gone after her, things might have gotten out of hand. Queenly just needs to cool down a bit. And i'm sure that Lisai knows that i'll be after her soon enough!'' 'I guess..' Christopher held Mex even tighter. 'I wish you were my brother. I envy the relationship you two have together. Queenly doesn't even introduce me as her brother. I'm just another knight to her.' ' No you're not!' Mex patted Christopher. 'And you're going to show her that! By coming to the forest with me, and get that stone. And you will deliver it to her in person!' 'Really?' Chistopher said 'You think we can do it?' 'Ofcourse!' Mex said, with full self esteem. 'Together we can.'
