The Path-The girl with the purple eyes

•The Blockers of the Tunnel•

Meanwhile Xavia was running in the forest getting more and more confused as the forest deepened. Her screams would have gotten lost in the trees, and overshadowed by the chirping of birds, so she didn't even bother trying.

She kept walking into dead ends or at least that's what they looked like, getting lost in the colors of the leaves. She laid down for a second to catch her breath.

Her chest was pounding and her face was red, Xavia was used to the outdoors that's where she met the Gyuon's daily. But for some strange reason she couldn't find what she was looking for even though she knew this forest like the back of her hand. Of course she never ventured this far along.Because that's where the barriers were, the tunnels that led from country to country.

"Damn it, i'm lost."said Xavia so softly only she could hear it

"What are you doing here pretty lady?" said a boy with purple eyes hanging on a branch of a tree, looking as sarcastic as he sounded.

"What?"Xavia looked around but couldn't spot the voice

"Up here!" said the boy

As Xavia looked up she noticed one of the most beautiful creatures that she has ever seen a boy with white hair, pale skin, violet eyes wearing what looked like a type of uniform. She has never seen someone with eyes like that and was very surprised. He was sitting on a tree branch eating an apple.A very relaxed but devilish looking boy. Almost too angelic to be considered good.

"Want some?"He said as he threw Xavia the apple

"Thanks, should I check if it's poisoned?"said Xavia sarcastically

"Don't worry i'm not that type of person, trust me"said the boy climbing down from the branch, jumping in front of Xavia. He was tall,very tall and skinny.He was indeed wearing a uniform but it didn't look like a government issued uniform.It had a patch on it that read "Öftes bījón pįteraäs"(order among outsiders in Dyka)

"You know Dyka?"said Xavia surpised but scared

"Yeah, my mother taught me it when I was a small child, öbtal tù sâraj?(what are you doing here?)"he said softly

"Ćrâs tu Mït(I'm trying to find the tunnels)" Xavia responded hesitating

"Oh,I know where they are follow me!"said the boy with the violet eyes

I felt like I should trust him, my gut was telling me that he truly knew the path to the tunnels. I didn't usually trust people blindly but I had the feeling that I knew him, maybe in another life, maybe I knew him when I was a child, I didn't really know.I was scared, I needed someone to trust, so I followed him.

He didn't look lost in the forest of no end(Grüiiaa was the name of the forest), he looked like he has been there all his life.

His army boots stood out to me, they looked as if he had been walking in them for hundreds of years, filled with grime and moss, but they told a story. A gruesome story to say the least but definitely an intriguing one. I've never seen someone with violet eyes but I felt like I once did. As for the white hair, I heard some people possess white hair naturally. I almost wanted to ask him if he did a color changing spell for his eyes. Yeah dark magic, whatever, It's something all of us can do. Some better then the others but whatever.

"So, what's you're story?"said Xavia while panting

"My story? Aren't you going to ask me for my name first?"said the boy with violet eyes looking quite amused at such a straight-forward question

"Oh sorry,What's your name if I may dare to ask sire?" Xavia said as she did a sarcastic little bow in front of him

"My name is Stilioos .And yours m'lady?" He said just as sarcastically

"They call me Xavia in around these parts" She said almost cracking up

Stilioos suddently stopped and looked at her shocked. He was unsure if she was lying or not.

"Oh yeah so what does your name mean?"he said almost starting to sweat at the thought that it could be her

"Saviour. It's stupid I know"she said cracking up

He froze. It couldn't be. Why then? Why now?

He shook the thought out of his mind and continued walking towards the tunnels.

"Here we are!" Stilioos said

Xavia looked at the tunnels, they were nothing like what she had anticipated.She only knew one thing that Brutus had said to her "Mäse dön väs, Khrïa tëm pi, shün de geh, contäsa del rehn" (The farthest away, the longer the tunnel, at the gate, beware of the trouble)

The tunnels were 15 feet tall and 15 feet wide with the biggest gates Xavia has ever seen. At the gate were two small midgets wearing happy smiles. Xavia rolled her eyes and thought to herself "Brutus must be crazy look how adorable they are"

The tunnels looked deep and mysterious, I honestly didn't know which one I was supposed to go through. But maybe Stilioos did. I had a strange feeling about him, like we had met before, maybe I had a dream about this. Something about him made me feel uneasy yet excited, I knew I definitely needed him for this escapade.

"Hello fellow humans name,group and age?"said a midget with a subtle stubble and a pointy nose

"Frunking and Sika, we are both Tribïsal ,aged 18" responded Stilioos quickly

"Is that so?" they said with a slight smirk

"Yes sir, you know Tribïsal's never lie sir" said Stilioos

"Of course my dear,what can we do for you?"said the other midget with a squashed nose

"We have business on the other side of the border. A meeting with the captain sir, to talk about Fauna, she is not feeling well lately."said Stilioos with a sad face

"Okey sire and the girl why are you bringing her with you?"said the midget with the pointy nose while not even looking at Stilioos

"She is my assistant sir, she comes with me to every business meeting sir" said Stilioos looking a bit concerned

The Midget looked up at Stilioos and noticed his eyes

"Blue blood..." he muttered under his breath

"What did he say?" Xavia said softly

"Run Xavia.... RUN!"shouted Stilioos
