After we were welcomed by the rest of the dragon born, Cody lead us towards Indegos cabin. The cabin still creeped me out because I was still afraid of Imdego. I walked up to the same log cabin that started my adventure at the dragon born camp. Cody gestured towards the door and then he walked away as one of the other campers called for him. I approached the door and knocked three times, trying to make my knocks firm. I heard some stomping in the cabin then Indego called out
"Who is it"
I studded my words because I was shaking "its me, jack" I heard a silence from the cabin as all movement ceased. The door swung open And I was greeted by the face of drake.
"Jack!" He shouted "welcome back my friend! I'm glad you survived your quest" I decided to ignore the last comment then I gathered all my courage
"Indego I'm sorry"
"What for? He asked with a puzzled tone
"One of the boys you sent us to rescue died, he was killed by the demon riders" I told him. He continued looking at me blankly and spoke up
"What about the other boys?"
"Carlos, one of the leaders of the demon riders told us we could find him in a place called falcon keep, but he also told up that it is heavily guarded."
"Yes, I know of falcon keep, and it is immensely guarded, more the two thousand demon riders guard that place" Indego said sadly
"We need to make a strike force to get the two boys back" I told Indego
"It isn't that easy jack" Indego told me "many people will die if we try"
Amanda spoke up "we need to rescue the boys drake, we came this far" Indego turned to Amanda and gazed at her with a quizzical look.
He seemed to ponder this comment by Amanda for a while until he finally looked at me
"Are you one hundred percent sure the two boys are there?"
"It's our best shot" I told him. He contemplated this and came to a conclusion
"We will commence a attack on falcon keep at sunset tomorrow" at least we got through to him and our quest wasn't a total waste of time
"Will we take dragon riders?" Drake asked. Indego turned to drake and stared at him for awhile, making everything tense between everyone. Indego then spoke in the funniest tone
"Of corse we will you dumb boy" drake looked all sorts of embarrassed. Indego then addressed the rest of us
"You all need to let your cabins know about this, it is not compulsory to fight but it is for a good cause, to stop the demons next plans to destroy us from the inside. The armory will be open and restocked with armour. I will request that the elder dragons will assist us in our fight but I cannot be sure. Make sure they all have appropriate armour, weapons and a dragon to fly on. Is that understood?" We all nodded in agreement and he dismissed us. Before we could all run away from him he added in another comment
"Also remember to tell them there is a risk to be killed" that comment stuck to me for the rest of the night, I could die on this mission. Is it all worth it? It's just two boy, I mean really. I walked into my cabin, everything was how it was when I left it. My bed was neatly made for me. I felt bad asking these boys to assist in our attack. I dumped my luggage on the floor and kicked it under my bed. I didn't even bother to get changed or do anything before bed, it had been so long since I felt the soft mattresses. I was also looking forward to a good mean in the morning, it has been so long since a good meal. These thoughts roamed my mind as I drifted of to sleep.
------------
I awoke to find the cabin busting with life, everyone was out of bed and getting ready for the day. I grudgingly hopped out of bed and slipped on a new set of cloths for the day. All the cabin members took their turns to say hi or hello and I kept of feeling worse and worse for asking them to essentially put their lives in my hands. I stood up and all of the sudden the boys dropped their belongings and turned to me, awaiting me to speak.
"Ahhh.... Hey guys, it's really good to be back" I said nervously. Their stares cutting me to the bone. "As you all know I was sent on a quest a coupe of day ago to find the three boys that were kid napped, unfortunately one of the boys was killed by Carlos and his demons. Drake, Amanda and I were able to kill Carlos and make him pay for his crimes but he told me with his final words that the other two boys are being kept in falcon keep" the cabin members exchanged worried glances and murmurs "we have come to a conclusion that it would be best if we launched a full scale attack on falcon keep." After I said this the cabin was silent until a boy stepped up.
"Sign me up" he told me as another guy followed him and repeated his action
"Guys I don't thing you understand the dangers" I warned them, but they kept coming until I had the whole cabin asking to fight.
"Ok guys" I shouted to gain their attention "you need to have a full set of armour, weapons and a dragon saddle before you can sign up to fight" before I had even finished they cabin had flushed out the door to raid the weapons shed. The responce was overwhelming me. Cody approached me before he went to get weapons
"Well done" was all he said before sprinting out the door
