I was walking slowly, my mind filled with the image of Emilia, I was nervous because she hadn't come back. She hadn't even sent a note... nothing from her at all!!! My mind was thinking every theory of what she was doing and I swear it was driving me crazy!!!! Especially because in many scenarios she was either eaten alive or committing suicide or killed or rapped. My nerves were reaching their peak and there was nothing I could to change that.
- Max, I think we should go search for her, wha do you think? Mark asked me. He knew what was bothering me, simply because the same thing was bothering him as well.
- No, she will come back... I think. I said but even I didn't believe that. Maybe we should go back and search for her. Suddenly I heard the sound of thunder and I wondered if a storm was about to begin.
- He's coming. Jasper said annoyed. I looked at him confused, who was coming?
- Who's coming here, Jasper? Jason asked full of curiosity. Everyones eyes turned to him and he left a heavy sigh.
- You'll see. He said and then a flash appeared, lightning fell near us and blinded us for a moment. The next thing I saw was a man dressed in a bright and strong tone of yellow and blue. He had long green straight hair in the tone of the grass embraced by sunlight, his eyes were a deeper green and for a minute I thought that we were looking at a tree, not a man. He had a dumb expression, similar to Mark's usual face.
- Hello everyone!!!! I am Luca von Cordibielt. Nice to meet you!!!! He said cheerfully, a wide smile drawn on his face. His gaze instanly fell on Jasper and hit his back in a friendly manner.
- Hello Luca. Jasper said coldly as he gave the newcomer a strong glare. Were they on bad terms or something?
- What a cold welcome to an old friend. Seriously man, why am I the only who always gets treated like the weeds on a field? Oh! You must be Max right? Luca said, his attention instanly turned on me. He really was like Mark, the differences were only in appearance, their character was literally the same.
- Yes, you must be the thunder priest, right? I asked, I had to admit I didn't know how to act around this guy.
- Aha! Indeed I am and you people are? He asked and looked my friends with puppy like eyes, he was really excited and wasn't ashamed to show it.
- I am Mark. Nice to meet you too Luca!!! Mark introduced with his smile and Luca patted his shoulder as the two of them laughed like idiots. Heavens, why did I have to suffer a second six year old in an adults body?
- I am Kathryn. Emilia's little sister said, she sounded cold and I guessed it was because of her sister's absence, once Luca shook her hand she looked down and went under a tree.
- I am Jason, nice to meet you sir. Jason said with a quick handshake before going to Kathryn's side and to my surprise she gave him a hug and.... I thought I saw tears.... Oh no! She wanted to be with her sister, didn't she?
- I am Goroh, priest of water. He said and did the traditional priest welcome. Luca repeated after him and showed great respect towards Goroh.
- I am Elena, priestess of life and death.
- I am Leon, Elena's twin. We are happy to meet another ally. The young boy said and looked at his sister who nodded in agreement.
- I am Lucia. I am happy to meet you too, Luca. She said and I could feel Kathryn glaring at Lucia, if she could kill her with her eyes, the poor girl would have died at least sixty times in a row.
- I am happy to meet you all but you won't be happy anymore when you learn what I listened. He said and looked away. I saw dissapointment in his face and his eyes had a glimpse of hatred in them all of a sudden.
