Into the Realm of Magic

Trouble (continued)

Alice POV

I woke up to something strange.  It wasn't the sound of birds or anything,  but it sounded like music. I opened my eyes completely to see that mystery-man was playing on of those wooden flutes. Is there seriously NOTHING he can't do???? Honestly. I was stretching and felt a nice pop in my back. I think he heard me cause the music stopped. He stood up and handed me a plate of food.
There were pancakes and eggs. Heaven on a plate. We are out in some forest though, so how in the world did he make this?

He looked at me and said, "Magic is always the answer here."

.......Does this guy read minds????? Seriously, I'm a little worried.

......Though......

If he can do magic, doesn't he give himself a home or something instead of living in a tree? Instead of thinking this, I voiced my question.

"........That's nothing for you to be concerned about", he said and quite coldly might I add.

I kept silent after that.

We had been walking for away now, still in silence. Its been silent since this morning. Maybe I really shouldn't have asked.....

After some time, we came up to a village. It seemed a little big to be a village to me but then again villages can be like the size of small towns I guess? We kept walking till we got to the entrance of the village when suddenly I was yanked from behind. I ended up behind a tree with myserty-man.

"what the hell--" I was in the middle of shouting when he covered my mouth with his hand.

"Be quiet will you", he whispered shouted. He was looking around the area.

He turns back to me and says, "This is Kakul village (name is totally made up)." Acting like I have an idea what that is suppose to mean, thanks pal.

I removed his hand from my mouth saying, "And what the hell is THAT suppose to mean?"

"This village isn't any ordinary village. The name says it's a village but really it's anything but. This place is heavily guarded for they are very wealthy. And, unfortunately for us, I am very well known here."

"Why exactly", I asked just a little bit hesitant.

He chuckled and said, "Well, I'm a thief. I thought that would have been just a little obvious considering the way I am dressed."

He smirked when he saw my eyes practically popping out of my head.

Well just fan-fucking-tastic. What's going to happen now????
