The forbidden Scroll

The Forbidden Scroll (King Lewis)

We had been traveling on the side of this road for a while now when I heard something coming along the road, I whipped around to see a severely beaten up carriage slowly coming towards us, the horse pulling the carriage looked beaten up and tired.

 "DAD," James and Ava yelled at the same time, they rushed towards the carriage while I cautiously followed behind them.

An older man stepped out of the carriage and embraced both Ava and James in a hug. "We didn't think you made it out," Ava said through tears. "Well, I'm ok as you can see," the older man said, also crying. 

This went on for twenty minutes before he noticed me, "who are you," he demanded. Shit I thought to myself. "This is morgen, she's been helping us get to roch," James explained. Phew, thanks James, I was relieved that James said something because this was a really awkward situation for me. Aw shit, I just realised, if James and Ava are royalty, and this is their dad, this means that he's a king. I quickly bowed.

 "Why are you bowing," he said "you've been making sure that my children have survived the outside world,". Ava and James groaned, "dAd," Ava complained "were not little kids anymore,". I couldn't help but smile at this, because she sure sounded like a little kid at this point.

We had all decided to camp there that night. "So, what's your reason for going to Roch," their dad asked. 

I froze, Ava and James knew why I couldn't tell him and I had already talked to James and told him that he couldn't tell his dad about his fire powers just yet. 

"I have.....business, to attend to," I replied, "it's actually more of a private matter," I added as it looked like the king was about to ask about what type of business it was. "Oh...very well then, hope it goes well for you," he said. "Hey dad," James asked, "yes," his dad replied. "Well,"James continued, "I was kinda hoping that we could maybe bring morgen with us,". We both looked at him, his dad shocked that he had asked and me shocked that he actually thought about me.
