" I am your father . " The guy said .

You stunned , looking at the man .

" I'm just joking lol , I'm just a normal person " the guy laughed . For one second you almost stabbed him .

" What do you want ? and why are you here ? " You asked .

" I'm just passing by , don't worry . " The man smiled .

" Sir , they are no survivors . " Your troop reported .

" Alright then , let's head to Zelkar now . " You said .

" You are heading to Zelkar ? I'm heading there too . " The man said .

" Ermm... so ? " You raised an eyebrow .

" I could lead the way . " The man said .

" I knoe da wae " You said .

" You might be wrong . " The man said .

He's stubborn but he's no harm . You thought to yourself .

" Alright then , you may join us and head to Zelkar together. " You said

" Sounds tempting . " The man smiled .

You signaled your troop and continue your journey, the man followed behind .

You reached Shadow Forest , not many people dare to cross this forest , many disappeared in this forest .

" You must be out of your mind if you want to cross there" the man said .

" It's the fastest and shortest way . " You said calmly . You tighten your sword on your belt , and entered the forest .

All the trees are black and withered , the air is misty , and it's cold . You glanced at your troop , all of them are nervous except the man , he's humming .

" What's your name ? " You asked the man .

" Is it important ? " the man smiled .

" No . " You said .

" You can call me Evan . " the man said .

" So Evan , what's your story ? " You said .

" Nothing special , my family was captured by King Stefan , so i'm going there to negotiate with him . " Evan said .

" Negotiate ? " You chuckled . King Stefan don't do ' negotiate ' , you can tell .

" So what if your negotiation fail ? " You asked .

" Guess i'll die ? " Evan said .

You reached a pond , but it's filled with black liquid . Your troop sighed . You took out your water bottle and shared with your troop .

Evan bent down and scooped a handful of the black liquid . He stored it in a potion bottle . The bottle looks familiar .

" You make potions ? " You asked .

" Sort of . " Evan said .

You , Evan and your troop continue walking .

Your head is getting dizzy , you are getting visions .

" I don't need a bodyguard "

" He's always busy "

You heard Tzuyu , you saw Tzuyu .

You gained back your conscious when Evan pinched you .

" Ouch ? " You said .

" Don't get distracted , the mist is no ordinary mist . " Evan said .

You checked on your troop , they are weak and losing their mind .

" WHO DARES TO COME TO MY FOREST ?! " A loud grumpy voice said .

A giant ogre appeared behind the trees . It's about 7 foot tall . Your troop is not in a good condition for fighting .

I have to do this myself . You thought .

You drew out your sword , it reflects the light into the ogre eyes .

" AAWWHHHH GET IT OFF ME !! " The ogre covered his eyes .

" Found your weakness before we even fight . " You smiled .

" I AM NOT WEAK !! I AM ... am ... JO... JOHNY THE OGRE !!! " the ogre roared .

" Enough talk , let's dance . " You run to the ogre .

Your head is showing image of Tzuyu getting tortured by King Stefan . You saw Tzuyu crying . You want to protect her .

Wait for me , Tzuyu . I'm coming to save you .

" HYAAHHHH !!! "
