LOCATION: MOONSVILLE KINGDOM...FRANK: It took a while for my eyes to get used to the sight before us...
I was speechless, lost for words as before us was a long marble white bridge.
It was longer than any bridge I had seen in my life and on either side of the bridge were countless people in armor, they all had swords strapped to them.
I looked around in confusion, we were overlooking a forest but it definitely wasn't the normal one we were just in.
In the distant skies were several small islands floating, bits of dust floated beneath every island, ''Holy shit'' I whispered.
There was a strong cool air current here that continued to blow our way meaning we were somewhere high.
Everyone was just as mystified at the sight.
''It's something isn't it?'' Theo shouted from way in front, he and the Jessica were already way ahead.
I had no words, literally, my brain couldn't even formulate sentences completely as I looked in awe –what were we looking at?
On both sides of the bridge stood men and women of all ages, they all had those weird lizard things with wings on their necks and hands and they didn't move a muscle or utter a word they just stared into open space.
The Victoria girl was already following Theo and the Jessica girl.
I looked at Rose as she looked in amazement, somehow the fact that she was in my same situation made me feel at ease and assured me I wasn't dreaming.
''This is amazing'' she said breathlessly, I had to agree with the cute girl, she was never more right.
Amazing doesn't even cover it!
The Allan boy began to follow after the weird blonde haired Vincent who wasted no time moving forward before I could call him.
''Hey Allan isn't it?'' I shouted, he looked back at me as wind continued to blow.
''You also new to all this?'' I said out loud and after a few seconds he replied, ''You could say that''
''Mind if we talk?'' I said with a genuine nervous smile.
He nodded and walked back to us and I gave a sigh of relief.
Once he was close I introduced myself, ''I'm Frank, this here is Rose'' he shook my hand and nodded at Rose and for a brief few seconds no one spoke.
I groaned...this was going to be troublesome.
''Look I know you probably have your own reasons for coming here but I was hoping that at least to help us feel comfortable, we try to know each other'' I said, ''What harm could it do?''
Rose looked at me then rose her hand to Allan, ''Hi'' she said softly.
Allan looked at both of us for a while then smiled, ''Allan Meroe, nice to meet you'' he shook her hand.
I smiled as we walked together onwards towards the huge building that the bridge seemed to lead up to.
I hadn't noticed it at first but it looked like a big fort or a castle, a castle of white.
It had several windows, almost uncountable, several birds flew around its roofs and the huge castle rested also on a huge forest with tall trees but the whole forest too floated.
I glanced over the side of the marble road to see huge waterfalls pouring continuously, I couldn't see the bottom as a huge fog enveloped the area.
Just as we passed through the many people dressed in armour they unsheathed their swords and pointed high up.
We reacted and expected something bad but they all said in a loud voice that echoed throughout even to our bones, ''Welcome home, welcome to Moonsville!''
I glanced around then at Allan and Rose, the very people who'd become my best friends and closest allies, the very ones who'd save my life countless times and I'd do same though at the time I had no idea.
I smiled as Allan grinned as he looked at the millions of swords raised up all leading to the castle.
My thoughts then went to what the Jessica lady said about H.E John, so that was the man who told me about Moonsville, did he plan all this?
''Maybe this place won't be so bad'' Allan said looking at Rose and she nodded as she laughed a little, clearly still amazed.
I looked around at the skies filled with floating islands, some of which had similar castles to the one before us but smaller in comparison then at the knights all around us and nodded, ''Yeah...me too''
