Gregor woke up, with his eyes still closed, afraid to open them because he didn’t know if he had dreamt everything that had happened the previous day, but he somehow managed the courage to open his eyes, he was there, in the underland in his underland clothes, and he looked over at his sisters sleeping in their beds. Gregor felt bad for leaving his mom and dad, and he knew his mother was probably worried sick. Gregor got up from his bed and snuck out of the room, careful not to wake his sisters up. He got dressed in some clothes that where by his bed and ran to the Arena, he had no idea what time it was, and he didn’t know if he was late to meet up with Luxa to discuss who else was coming. He got there and saw a bunch of people all lined up, as if they were waiting for a roller coaster.
“Hey, what’s going on?” he asked to Luxa when he found her.
“Almost everyone in Regalia has come to see if they are the one in the prophecy!” she seemed overwhelmed.
“Hey, it’s ok we will know it when we see him or her.” Gregor told her.
“Yes, I guess you are right” she said, seeming a little bit comforted by the fact. Luxa stepped in front of the crowd and said, as loud as she could
“Hello, today we will try to figure out all who is coming on the quest of the prophecy of the breather, normally we don’t do things this way, but we could not find an extra person, considering Vikus is getting older” all the sudden Gregor felt a hand on his back, he jumped, and heard a laugh
“It’s just me Overlander” it was Mareth
“Mareth, how are you doing?” Gregor asked, Mareth knew he was asking about his leg
“oh, it’s getting better, I can walk a lot easier now, it is still hard without my leg, but I will survive” Gregor knew that Mareth was having a harder time than he said he was, because before he had lost his leg, Mareth was always up and running, sick or not, and Gregor knew he was probably going to ask to be in the quest, Gregor didn’t want to have to say no if he asked, but he did not want Mareth going on a quest without his leg, Mareth was like family to him, and he didn’t want him to get even more hurt. Just then a girl with long black hair was seen falling from the sky, it was Marliene!
“Simonog!” she screamed, a red and white bat was flying above her that must have been her bond she was telling him about.
“Marliene I’m coming!!” The crowd started to notice her, he heard screams and Gregor started running to catch the girl, and thank fully, Simonog was able to catch her before she hit the ground, or Gregor, because either way, something would hit the ground hard. Simonog had landed and Marliene hopped off of him
“I am so sorry Marliene, I should have been more careful” the bat said looking sadly at the girl.
“It’s all right Simon, I’m fine” she looked at Gregor “oh, hello Gregor,” then she looked at Luxa “I am Truly sorry that I have interrupted, Queen Luxa” she said looking embarrassed, Luxa and Gregor looked at each other, and they both knew they had found their extra bat, and human.
