i clicked the lock together and grabbed my bag . |
emily was fumbling with her bike lock , which was old and rusted and usually refused to work without a fight . |
i walked over and tried to help her . |
why do you think seth wont tell us what he was doing ? |
i asked , watching her because she had refused to let me help . |
pride purposes ? |
he was yelling at you when he broke his own rules . |
he just doesnt want to admit he did she said through her wild hair . |
her lock finally clicked and she stood up . |
the boys were walking side by side towards the play set . |
it wasnt actually that small but it looked that way from the street . |
there were six swings and a tower with four slides attached to it . |
i ran after them with emily right behind me . |
i slowed down next to jason and put my arm on his shoulder . |
hey jason , do you know seths a liar ? |
i asked and seth shot me a bad look . |
jason frowned at me , what are you talking about , jazell ? |
he broke his own rules . |
he was out scouting without telling us . |
i smiled and jason stiffened . |
what ? |
he growled . |
are you two trying to create trouble ? |
seth cut in . |
emily put her arm around my shoulders . |
no , we just want the truth , emily said sweetly . |
yeah okay , whatever . |
seth shoved his hands in his pockets , and glared at the ground . |
i sat on one of the swings next to emily . |
i traced the sticky metal rings and sighed . |
emily was on her phone . |
i saw seth and jason arguing off to the side . |
everything was back to normal . |
there was even a dwarf climbing the slide . |
wait , hold on . |
a dwarf ? |
i elbowed emily in the arm , uh emily , is a dwarf using a slide a normal thing ? |
i nodded in the direction of the dwarf and her eyes widened in surprise . |
she jumped off the swing and grabbed me by the arm . |
she ran over to jason and gripped his arm with her free hand , pulling us both after her . |
seth frowned but had no choice but to follow . |
wheres the dwarf ? |
she asked quickly . |
climbing the slide . |
weird huh ? |
i almost tripped but i caught myself . |
she pushed us into the woods , we got to move fast before someone gets hurt . |
make sure no one is around . |
in a matter of seconds , i had an arrow in my bow , seth had his sword in his hand and jason had his hands full of knives . |
the dwarf was sitting on the edge of the slide , looking like an ugly version of a toddler , and a few more came out of the woods to join him . |
we tried to sneak up without being spotted but one of the dwarves turned his head and saw us . |
he immediately launched himself onto emily . |
she screeched and i thought i saw one of the kids turn around . |
he crawled up to her ear and whispered something that i couldnt hear . |
she froze , but i saw her place her hands on his wrinkled skin . |
fire flared from her fingertips , scorching his skin . |
he let out a screech and vaulted off her , running as fast as his legs could take him . |
i held an arrow out and emily set it ablaze . |
i drew back , launching the arrow , and watching it as it hit the dwarf in the back . |
the fire charred its dying body and i looked away to face my new attacker . |
one jumped on my head and i swung with my knife . |
it yelled into my ear , the one will rise , the one will rise ! |
he will destroy you ! |
i stabbed at him again , who ? |
youre being too vague ! |
he jumped off me and ran into the woods . |
he disappeared before i could notch an arrow and shoot him . |
soon we were alone again . |
emily made us all meet by the fountain . |
i guess we all heard some weird dwarf talk . |
okay ill start this time . |
he said , kill all the dwarfs you like , but kojas will rise . |
at least we have an idea of who they might be talking about . |
she added to her list ; toad dwarf said , kill all you like but kojas will rise . |
is kojas the person theyve been talking about ? |
who is he ? |
he told me , the one will rise , the one rise ! |
he will destroy you ! |
thats almost the same thing as last time . |
i tapped the fountain . |
she scribbled , toad dwarf said , the one will rise , the one will rise ! |
he will destroy you ! |
is kojas rising ? |
seth , do you have anything ? |
emily clicked her pencil . |
seth shook his head , but jason spoke up , he said , the king will rise . |
then he left . |
emily added one last bullet ; toad dwarf said to jason , the king will rise . |
her list was : toad dwarf said to jazell , hes rising , hes rising . |
whos coming and is he important ? |
toad dwarf told seth , you wont stop him , little warrior . |
does this mean hes powerful ? |
toad dwarf said to jason , he will destroy all half-ling . |
what does half-ling mean ? |
toad dwarf said to emily , kill all you like but kojas will rise . |
is kojas the person theyve been talking about ? |
who is he ? |
toad dwarf said to jazell , the one will rise , the one will rise ! |
he will destroy you ! |
is kojas rising ? |
