The Prophecy- Book 1

Chapter 11

I felt my lip curl up in a snarl as I watched him come out of her room. I stormed up to him. "What do you think you are doing? You're not supposed to be leaving your room."

He smirked at me. It made me want to punch him. "Well since we are facing a traitor I thought it best that your princess and I discuss things in private."

"That is not your call to make!" I clenched my fist trying to control my anger.

"On the contrary, since she and I that are destined to kill the Emperor we have the final say in everything." He sneered.

I was now seething with rage. I did not want him anywhere near Ashlynn.

He walked up to me, he was about the same height as me. "If you were full Angelos you might stand a chance, but being only half weakens you. You are also stuck with all the same weakness. I bet your skin is not even blaster gun proof." He stood back and crossed his arms arrogantly.

"Yours is?" I asked raising my eyebrows in surprise. I had no idea that anyone was.

"Many races are. Its only humans who hide behind them. But in real battle against the emperors men they would be mostly useless, accept for against the foot soldiers. The emperor is as well. That's why he is so hard to kill. You have to get close enough to him to kill him."

"I had no idea." I shook my head in disbelief.

"Not many earthlings know. The races furthest from there are the ones that poses the greatest threat. I believe the Durotarians are, which will make them a great alliance. I have given Ashlynn instructions. For now though we personally will have to lay low." He leaned against the wall.

"Now we have to lay low, because we had to save you ass?" I scowled, and crossed my arms.

"If you want to look at it like that. You should be laying low tell you fish out your traitor. Don't want to be giving anymore plans in the hands of the Emperor. If he wanted to, he could have killed everyone on you alliance list."

I scowled realizing he was right. "Whatever, just go back to your room. I don't want to deal with you anymore today."

"Hit a nerve did I?" He chuckled, but headed back to his room.

I watched him to make sure he went back in without any more detours. That guy had a way with getting under your skin. As much as I hate to admit it though, he was right. If the Durotarians were actually blaster gun proof, they would definitely be a great asset. I wonder why I was not. I was half, but apparently I took more after my human parent.

When I awoke I knew exactly what I needed to do. First, I contacted the Yellowens. They said they would contact everyone they could, and wished us a safe journey. Hopefully it would be. I thanked them and hung up.

Then, I told the Captain where we needed to go. They said it would be fine, plenty of supplies.

After that, I went to find Angel to tell him about what Rayven and I spoke of. What the plan was. I had vowed, that I would never keep secrets from him. He had always been there for me and I plan to do the same. When coming around the corner I ran into Rayven and Angel. They were in a heated conversation.

But stopped as soon as they saw me.

"So what's up guys?" I ask. Unsure if I want to get in the middle of it.

"Well this jerk here thinks you should start training with him, and only him..." Angel said

I looked questioningly at Rayven.
