The Hidden World

Chapter 2

Horizon's POV

I watched Grape as he curiously looked around, "So how did you get here"? I finally asked. "Me and my friend ran away from the kingdom which was being ruled by a blood thirsty ruler and someone must of given the king information about our escape and he sent his private army out on us. My friend held them off as I went through the portal, I don't even know if he made it out." He whispered and I smiled slightly. "Well I guess we both have similar situations" and he looked at me curiously. So I explained how. " You ran away from a blood thirsty ruler and I ran away from a abusive "father" and he just nodded. Suddenly there was a light tapping at the door and slowly I openes the door and standing there was a hooded entity wearing a long black cloak that covered his entire frame, unable to see his face due to the hood. Grape perked up happily "Phantom you actually made it" he cried out.

Grape's POV

I can't believe it. Phantom actually made it despite the odds. Horizon had to help help him due to his injures and gently put him on an another bed. "So you him" Horizon asked and I smiled " Yeah known him since we were just little kids." And he went to check his wounds. Moving the cloak off revealed worst injurys and I watched curiously to see what Horizon does about the injury because they required stiches. He put some gloves on and put a mask on and picked up a needle from a pot of boiling hot water and threaded it. " Phantom, are you sure you want to be awake while I do this, because I don't want you to freak out?" And my tough old friend nodded yes. Horizon expertly cleansed the wounds and stiched them up pretty quickly. "There, now don't open them up" he said when he finished. Horizon plopped down on a spare bed after taking off the gloves and mask, then put the needle back into the boiling water. Phantom sat up and sighed. "Can you please tell me what happen from the beginning?" Horizon asked and I nodded yes and took a deep breath and started to tell our story from the beginning.
