Finally we were on our way to Kingdom Rosslyn.

My training didnt really go well, but at least I learned how to harness my power alittle.

"There it is" James said.

I smiled.

Finally we made it.

I looked at Devin and he looked very...uneasy.

When we made it to the kingdom, there was a huge gate blocking us from entering.

"I didnt know Kingdom's have gates?"

"Yeah. Its to keep certain people out" James said.

"Well what should we do?"

"We should go around" He said.

"That wouldnt be smart. They'll detect us in a snap" Devin said.

We both looked at him.

"And how would you know that smarty pants" James said.

"...I just do. If we cant get in, we mindswell just leave" He said.

"And forget about the mission" James said.

Whats wrong with Devin.

He's acting strange.

"Look, I honestly dont want to argue, so why dont you just quietly--" He stopped talking because he noticed James was gone.

"Where did he just go?" he asked.

I pointed where the huge wall was.

"He's such a pain" He said as he ran to him.

I followed behind him.

When I caught up, James was still looking for a way in.

"James what are you doing?"

"The king said evil aura's have been coming lately and that you have to purify it. Therefore we're getting in one way or another" he said.

I looked at Devin who was constantly looking around.

"Devin are you okay?"

"No. I will be when we leave this place" He said.

What is so disturbing to him about this place?

"Ugh. Theres no other way in" James pouted.

"Good. Now can we go" Devin said.

"No! Not till we get in" he said.

All of sudden there were two people that appeared at the top of the wall.

"Who are you" One said.

"State your business here" The other said.

"We were sent by the king to-" They cut James off.

"I dont care who sent you. Leave, you have no business here" he said.

"But-" James was interupted again

"LEAVE!" The other said.

When they were about to leave, I stopped them...

"We heard there were evil Aura's passing through here"

The both of them gazed at me, and when they did I felt hatred and bitterness in their eyes.

"I assure you, there's no evil...Aura's here. Now leave, I wont ask again" He said.

He suddenly looked at Devin.

When I looked at Devin, I noticed he was avoiding eye contact with them.
