The Sun and Moon

Chapter 7

Bill POV

I watched as Shooting Star ruined my plan. I had to stay behind to kill off some more men and when I returned to the kid, she was there and broke the trance. She flipping kissed him to snap him out of it and he ended up passing out.

Cursing under my breath, i went behind a tree, trying to find another way to get the stone. The only way to find the amulet was by the child of the host before. Gilbert’s father was smart and hide it well...and only had one child.

“Princess! Princess!” some men shouted as they came to the scene.
Shooting star looked over at them, “I’m fine but we need to get out of here before the wolves have us all. Tell Ginger that we found her brother and to come to the castle.”

I paused as I listen to this.

BROTHER?!?!

So...Gilbert isn't the only child...he had a sister…

I looked back at the group as I watched the guards picked up the boy and they retreated back.

“so...Shooting Star may have stopped me this time...she may protect him all she wants...but she can't protect everyone at the same time...there are two targets i have now...pick which one you will protect...because i will get the other one…”

Gilbert POV

At first...everything felt so dark and cold. I had no memories of what happened...and was utterly confused on why I would I be like this. Nothing was making sense. I was just wondering in darkness. Then there was a bright light that brought me up into brightness and warmth.

That is when i finally opened my eyes and saw that I was in bed but not my bed. I was in a much nicer bed and room with bright colors and fanciness. I groaned as i rubbed my head and looked around but didn't have much time to do that either. I was instantly attacked when I started to move, “oh Gilbert!”

“oof! You’re...crushing...me!” i gasped out.

Ginger gasped as she instantly got off of me, “i am so so so sorry!” she then grabbed my hand tightly, “are you alright? Are you hurt? How many fingers am I holding up?” she asked frantically as she held out two fingers.
“im fine...im not hurt...and two…” i replied.

She then had a huge sigh of relief, “oh thank the heavens you are alright…” then she hit my arm, “how dare you scare me like that!”

“ow...i'm sorry? What did I do?” i asked.

She looked at me, “what? You don't remember?”

I shook my head, “I only remember going to bed after my day of work…”

She swallowed, “well...the day is almost over…”

“i missed a day?!”

“kinda...you were in a trance.”

“a trance?”

“Yes. I'm not very sure in what really happened to you. You were so weird and unresponsive. Then you just took off to the dark forest! I was so scared that I wouldn't have you anymore and I would be all alone and-"

“Ginger...i promise...i would never let you be alone forever..” i stepped in squeezing her hand. “i said i kept that promise...and i am planning to keep it forever and ever.”

She smiled as she kissed my head.
That is when Princess Mabel came inside the room, “oh thank goodness you are awake...and just in time before the sun sets.” she then came up to the foot of the bed, “what did my brother want you to do? What did he ask you to do?”
