The secrete of the shadows

Chapter 4

Vivian
Vivian was in the upper sector gathering supplies on the list. Lady Raelienne was in charge of all of the lady workers. Earlier that day Raelienne handed this ridiculous list to Vivian and told her to fetch them all by four o'clock. Vivian looked around the town and something coughs her eye. Hoisting the basket of goods up she started to follow it. Vivian saw an old woman hiding in clothes. The thing that gave it away was the gold ring on the women's finger. Only one person in the whole world had that ring and it was Raelienne. Vivian followed her down the ally ways. After an hour of ducking behind walls and hiding, Raelienne came to a small run down restaurant. Raelienne carefully ducked inside. Vivian listed through the thin sheet wall on the outside of the building. " The job will be done and soon we can get those pesky kids out of my hair" Vivian heard muffled Raelienne say. "Yes this is perfect the plan shall work. One thing though Raelienne" " Yes! Anything"
"Well we need you to die. To make it believable. Save them so they know we are active" Vivian didn't hear anything for a little while and then Raelienne said " of course. See you later tonight. Shadow secrets fall. I have seen them all. Never tell a soul. Never be seen by an eye. If these things happen I will surely die." Raelienne said. Vivian  processed what she had just heard. Something is going to go down and Raelienne is going to die. Also she is a shadow!!! Vivian ran back to the upper sector and proceeded to finish getting the goods on the list. As she was shopping she could help but think, Was Raelienne the shadow who killed the queen and king?

Grant
Grant looked out the window. He refused to let anyone in his room all day. He hadn't even gotten out of bed. It was around 3 o'clock. Grant didn't even make an effort to get up. This was overwhelming. His parents had died two days ago, Anderson was coordinated, and Anderson had hurt Grant. Grant knew he was adopted, but being told that he was basically worthless by his brother hurt. Grant had three hours before dinner with Cora. That was the only thing he looked forward to. Another three hours to waste Grant thought. Maybe he could find some books on the shadows and follow through with his plan. Grant exited down the back halls to the library to avoid anyone. Once in the library he faced another task. Getting on the restricted area. The restricted area was for people the king said could go in there. Grant want definitely not on that list. Grant looked around the big bronze metal gate to look for openings. Then it clicked! There was a metal grate that was in the floor and connected to the dungeon. Inside the dungeon was a small narrow path that lead to this part of the library. Guards would file in the restricted area if the castle was under attack. Grant quickly made his way to the dark and gloomy dungeon. Once inside he turned a corner and ran into a guard on accident. "Prince Grant. What can I help you with?" The guard said after he voted to the boy. Grant thought for a second and then he said " I am here to visit Anderson the first's grave. I want to pay my respects today." All of the royal members were buried in a seclusive grave yard except Anderson the first. He was the first king of this kingdom and he was buried in the castle near the dungeon. The guard tipped his hat and moved out of the way so Grant could leave. Once out of eye sight Grant slipped through the narrow hallway, and went through the metal grate into the restricted area. He scanned the shelves for anything about the shadows. Then he found it. An old maroon book that was covered in dusk. The title read the secretes of the shadows. Grant tucked the book under his shirt and started to make his way back to his room. The first step in his plan was complete.

Oliver
Oliver and his men got up around dawn to continue the journey to the sorcerers. Riding on horseback for long periods of time was often uncomfortable and boring. There wasn't really anything to look at except the map which the kingdom had provided. After about 7 hours of traveling they saw something a women standing in their way. " please move out of the way for this is the will of the Arvendon Kingdom" Oliver said with much force in his voice. The women smiled and muttered something Oliver couldn't hear, then Oliver felt light headed and others around him did as well. Oliver saw the woman giving an evil smile right before he blacked out.

Anderson
Anderson sat at his desk looking through all the papers. This morning he had hired a team of scientists to find the cause of the disease in case the sorcerers refused to help. A knock startled Anderson from his work. "Come in" A man who was in the scientist group walked in. " Your majesty we have made a discovery. The disease is cause by contaminated water in that sector. Someone deliberately put poison in that water and we know who." The scientist held out a paper that said The secrets of the shadows are what many fear, for we have poisoned the water our plan is near. Watch your back and keep dodging, the shadows are always watching. We are going to strike again soon and protect the loved ones you don't wish to loose. Good bye for a small while next time you see a dead body Anderson hold down your bile. From the shadows
Anderson read the note. They knew he threw up after seeing his parents mangled corps. Anderson gaged they really were always watching. Anderson ran to Grant's room to warn him and to be alert, but all he found was a note on the neat bed.

Dear Anderson, 
If  are reading this than you've realized haven't shown up for dinner. I am not coming. Cora knows a restaurant in the lower sector. She is the only one who cares about me. You have showed me how much you care. It is not a lot. I hate you. You were the only thing I had left and now you are gone. I probably won't be Joining dinner with you for a long time.

Sincerely your "brother",
Grant

Anderson threw the note on the ground Grant was in trouble. " Guards!" Anderson yelled he needed to save his brother.
