The Elemental Chronicles: The Beginning of the End

Chapter 15

Shadow Star of the Shadow Nation

As Shadow Star read about Tobias' questions in his journal he felt bad for him and noticed how much Tobias wanted to explore the outside world and even he got curious about what was going on and he finally made his decision.

. . .

Tobias of the Shadow Nation

Tobias' heart pounded in his chest with excitement and his mind swirled with questions. Suddenly the questions in his head stopped moving and his heart stopped pounding as Silver intertwined her hand with his. When they reached the entrance of Shadow Star's cave Tobias took a deep breath, then entered and Shadow Star saw them immediately.

"Thank you for coming." Shadow Star said calmly and Tobias and Silver nodded.

"As you already know, I've read your book Tobias and I've made a final decision." Shadow Star said giving him his Journal back.

"Shadow Star, Sir, what have you decided, if it is to exile me then-" Tobias was cut off by Shadow Star holding his hand up to silence him.

"I am not going to exile you, as a matter of fact I am allowing you to go outside the caves, and I'm coming with you." Shadow Star replied.

"WHAT?!" Silver and Tobias asked at the same time.

"As I read your Journal, I began to realise that I was wondering the same things you were, about what's been happening above ground, about whether or not the war between the Fire Nation and End Nation is over and who won and who lost. So tomorrow I'll be joining you on your mission to explore the world that evolved during the generations we've been down here." Shadow Star replied. Tobias couldn't hold back his emotions and he ran forward and hugged Shadow Star so tightly he coughed a few times.

"Sorry, Sorry." Tobias said jumping backwards.

"It's okay, I myself am excited." Shadow Star said and smiled at Tobias.
