The Necromancer

Ambush

Vicky woke up panting hard as if she had just ran the marathon. " We've got to help her, Ruth!" she gripped Ruth shirt tightly as she sob uncontrollably.

" Hey,' Ruth tilted her face towards his. " It's just a dream. No one is hurt." He smiled as he gently wipe Vicky's tear with his thumb.

" No...no one is...is hurt?"  Vicky asked again.

Ruth nodded. " So you remembered?"

" Not much but I remembered you and that I was almost dead." there was a long, tensed silent between them but Ruth lighten the mood with a nudge on her elbow.

" I hoped you remember how much you loved my cooking." Ruth grinned

" Ofcourse! Anyway I'm kinda starving."

" Come on than! You don't wanna have a frozen dinner do you?" Ruth dragged her all the way to the dining room.

The table was set perfectly and of course with lots of mouth watering food. There was a boy around the age of 8 placing a jug of grape juice on the table. " Who is that? Is he your son?" Vicky pointed at the 8 year old boy

" No! He is-"

" Hello," the little boy interupted with a huge smile on his face. " The name is Plume. Ruth found me and take me in,"

" Hi there. So where are you're parents?"

" Seriously, Vicky?" this time Ruth interupted. "Enough with the questions already. I thought you were starving." he pulled the chair for Vicky  to sit.

" Curiosity. Can't help it." she shoved a cookie in her mouth.

" Well, I was born from a tree." Plume said. " I'm a pixie. Turning 800 soon which is 8 years old in your world,"

" Wow. If you're 800, than how old are you, Ruth?"

Ruth wasn't planning to tell but Plume spill the beans. " He is 2000 years old,"

" 2000 years old, huh?" Vicky smirked, " And yet you don't have a girlfriend?"

" No. but if you wanna be my girlfriend....be my guest." he winked

" Nope. My bethroted shall have black hair and blue eyes whereas you have a brown hair with gold eyes,"

" Sounds like a 'Will' to me cause most guys in the books that have black hair and blue eyes are named Will." he chuckled.

Their dinner was interfere with a sudden shook on the ground. " Earthquake on a floating island?" Vicky suggested. The ground shook again and there was a sound of an explosion. Ruth immediately knew what was happening. The last time the ground was shaking, along with the explosion, he was under attacked by Maldiva's Trollknight.Trollknights are a very hideous creatures with green hair, scaly skin,razor sharp teeth and bloody red eyes.

" We have to get outta here!" Ruth ran to his armoury in the basement with Plume and Vicky following him. "Here.Take this." he tossed them a gun each. " Plume, I need you to sent Rufus away to get Adam and let the dragons out for we are being attacked."

Plume nodded and left." Vicky, you can fire a gun,can you? I need you to wait here and don't go anywhere. I'll be back when this is all over." Ruth ordered

"But-"

" No buts. Plume will get you out if anything goes wrong." Ruth smiled and Vicky sighed but nodded.

" Great. Here I am all by myself," she grumbled to herself as Ruth left.
