STORY

1997 C.E.

On a dark and stormy night, the King sets off into the dark forest to find someone to heal this wound and faints to the sight of a cursed oak tree and lays there for a few hours being soaked from the pouring rain but when the rain starts to settle he's not alone. Zombie goes to aid the dark elf and she checks his wounds and brings him to shelter in the nearest cave and tries to wake the elf up. "Hey, are you ok sir?". Gains enough consciousness to speak. "Who and what are you and were am i!" Saying almost cutting the Pixie's throat with his dagger that is always kept by his side. She backs up and hold her hand to her face and gets scared "I'm sorry i didn't mean to scare you my name is Zombie and you're in a cave.". The Drow puts his dagger away slowly and then walks toward Zombie with a loud jingle cause of his weapon belt. She got scared of the jingle and looks down prepared to get hit "Go ahead I'm used to it.". The Drow puts his hand on her shoulder and asks in confusion followed by a chuckle "What are you talking about little one if you think I'm going to hurt you i don't hurt kids don't be fooled by all this armor I'm not as scary as it looks I'm kind of sweet.". She looks at him and smiles "So why are you alone? Do you need help with something? Cause if you do i can help you? I want to help.". "The reason why I'm alone is that my royal guards ditched me to go find help.I'm fine but thanks for the offer.". She looks confused as she sees a tattoo on his shoulder "You don't look ok you've been poisoned by something rare it needs to be taken care of.". "What... how... how did you see i have my armor on that covers it up?". She points to a rip in the armor"there's a rip in your armor and i was listening to my parent read before i was born so i can tell when something's wrong i could help you to find a cure." she says as calmly as she can. As the drow covers his rip he mutters to himself "Damit must have happened when i got attacked." "How? How can a little kid like you heal me?". She smiles and pulls out a map "I might know where the cure for that poison is sir" she said nice and calm. "Zero.". "Zero what? Is that your name?" she asked the drow. "My name is Zero, but call me King Zero well for now until i die from this poison.". "Ok, king Zero but you won't die if i find the cure to that poison" she was worried you could tell it in her eyes and voice. Before King Zero could say anything the pixie got shot in the wing with a hunting arrow.She gets hit with the arrow and her eyes widened in pain and fear as she fell on her knees "Watch out ki..." she sees another arrow heading towards Zero. Before the pixie could finish her sentence the Drow caught the arrow with one finger and snapped it in half and before the pixie noticed the Drow ran after the hunter and brought his head for his food. "Damm hunters always trying to kill every living thing in this goddamn forest but they sure are a tasty treat." looks at Zombie "Do you want some?". "No I'll pass i don't eat people" she tries to pull the arrow out of her wing and it hurts even more. King Zero walks to Zombie and grabs on to the arrow and says "this is going to hurt a lot." and pulls the arrow out as fast as he can. She screams and her wings bleed a little "ouch that hurt and thank you king Zero" she smiles saying thank you. As the pixie says thank you to the drow, the drow put a hand on the pixies wing that got shot and a strange black smoke comes from the drows hand. "Whoa that's really cool but what does it do?" she looks amazed, confused and worried. "Oh don't worry I'm just sealing your wing up until we get to my kingdom and my fairy can take care of the wound.". "Oh ok i would like that very much" she goes to her original form in his hand. The drow and the pixie get to the drows kingdom and drops the pixie off at the medical care station and the king goes to his throne and calls in the guards that left him in the forest alone. "Hello how can i help you?" looks at the pixies wing "oh my what on earth happened!". "I hurt my wing cause of an arrow was shot at me" she admits to the fairy. "What...the hunters are back in the forest? Well looks like when my king is cured the council is going to have a stern talking with him.". "Oh, why he doesn't seem to have to have down anything wrong.". she says strongly about zero. "Now see he's the king of the dark forest so the council put him in charge of keeping the forest safe from the hunters.". "Oh ok, I'll go to king Zero and talk to him and try to help him find a cure to that poison" she smiles as she heads to the throne room but she hears yelling and peeks in to see what's going on and sees that Zero is larger than normal. "Sir we're sorry we went to go get help and when we came back you were gone. Please forgive us sir?" said the royal guards in fear. "WHY SHOULD I FORGIVE YOU TWO YOU HAVE DONE THIS MANY TIMES IN THE PAST SINCE I DON'T HAVE ANYONE THAT WANTS TO BE THE ROYAL GUARDS YOU TWO WILL BE THE TEMPORARY ROYAL GUARDS UNTIL I FIND A REPLACEMENT FOR YOU TWO!" He says with deep anger. She decides to wait till Zero calms down to just walk into the throne room so she doesn't get yelled at him for disturbing the conversation "he must be really mad for being left behind by his guards i would too if that happened to me" she says quietly so no one hears her. "Zombie so glad your wing is healed come on in and meet my temporary royal guards." he says as he slowly calms down. She walks in calmly and looks at the guards "hi are you aware you could have put your king in danger by leaving him alone he could have died or been hurt seriously and then i wouldn't have been able to meet a nice guy like him" she smiles saying that as she slaps the guards "don't ever do that again you hear me!!" she says confidently. "We're really sorry we had to go get some help for the King". "Dismissed.". "B-but sir...". She goes to Zero "so those are the idiots that left you behind i see why you don't like em" she says clearly mad at the guards for their actions. "Yes." looks towards the guards with despise, "I SAID DISMISSED NOW LEAVE!". She smiled and throws a book at the guards "You heard him leave before i bite you" she giggled and looks at Zero. "Looks like we both hate them. Anyway, what do you want?" laughs along with Zombie. "So i heard that you're having a meeting when your cured but i don't trust this meeting is going to go well so we might as well talk about what might have to happen so we can find that cure" she says so he can hear her. "Who told you this?" looking at Zombie with curiosity. "Your royal fairy told me this" she told Zero truthfully. "You heard correctly." he says as he sighs. "I'm not really sure on how we can get this cure to the poison we'll have to go past the border which is very dangerous for a little kid like you.". "I don't care, as long it helps you get better. You helped me so i'm gonna help you, it's the best i can do, i owe you" she looks intense and stares at the book she brought with her. "I appreciate the help but i don't want you to get hurt if you want to go you first have to become a royal guards." he says as he calls his pesent "RAMON GET IN HERE THIS INSTANT!". "Yes sir?". "This girl t get her trained to be a royal guard.". "But sir we don't have any openings.". "I don't care we need as many royal guards as we can get.". "But sir that will take weeks of training and you need that cure as soon as possible you don't have the time and strength to wait weeks.". "It doesn't matter plus i have some training to do as well. so will it be done?". "Yes as you wish my King.". "Yay i get to help and i have something in my book to calm the poison for a little bit until he's cured" she smiled and looked excited to be helping someone for once. For awhile they went separate ways and saw each other occasionally. - to be continued
