the cutest dog I’ve ever seen and when he was gnawing on your foot it looked like he was having the best dream he had ever had” she rubbed in.

“Cut it out will you?” I asked with a bit more force then I realized

“Ok, fine but you need to tell me more about this ‘Thunder Prince’” she stated.

Suddenly I realized why she had been so persistent and I had just walked right into her trap.

“Of cause all you have to tell me about this new comer or…” she moved her hands on top of her head before continuing “bow wow gets out.”

I could see that she was trying not to laugh at her own wit, but I found it anything but funny. After a few seconds of thinking I took the logical point of action.

“Fine” I stated sharply

“YES, Score Zoe 1 Dan 0!” She squealed

“Quiet down you, do you want to wake up the whole town?” I replied curtly. She quietened here cheering but still didn’t stop. We made it to the bar to see the bartender putting on some coffee, obviously for himself but like any other bartender in the world he was making enough for a couple. Zoë and I took a seat in front of the bartender.

 

“I’m guessing you’re the one Thunder Prince brought in” he stated, gesturing towards Zoe “and you must be the famous Dan the hunter”.

“Who’s it to you” I said instantly on guard, if he knew this much about me and Zoe he is ether an Enforcer puppet or had gotten the information from somewhere else.

“No need to get in a fuss, I’m Jacobs long time old friend and no friend of the Enforcers.” He stated smartly with a twinkle in his eye. Seeing Dan’s suspicions settle he continued “Well would you like a cuppa while we discuss about my good friend Jacob and before you even ask this girl really needs to not yell as much by the way I’m jack.”

“Well Jack a drink of coffee would be nice also it looks like you’re having a good harvest unless of cause they throw up on something” She said looking over her shoulder at the people in the taverns bar.

Jack smiled “Well let’s not think about that little possibility.”

“Yes let’s not” replied Zoe curtly.

Dan obviously wanting to stop this little verbal war they were having, turned to the bartender and stated

“Could you tell us more about this Thunder Prince, all I know of him is that he got us out of there and had aligned himself with The Wind Walker.

Jack gave one last twinkling look at Zoe before continuing “His real name is Jacob, he game to this world when he was eight and everyone looked him over, they had enough problems of their own, everyone except a certain little girl. She cared for him personally, she was still a normal human being only a few years older than Jacob but that was enough. So together they began developing powers and climbing up the ladder and eventually Jacob became the most trusted warrior to this girl, who now is the Wind Walker.” He summed up.

“Ok that all well and good but how do you know him so well?” Zoe stated.

Jack smiled and looked off into a wall as if recalling his earlier life.

“Well it was a late rainy night, and business was good when a little girl stumbled into my Tavern with a little boy hand in hand. They were soaked in water and mud. They looked half-starved as well. They came to me and showed me a small grubby coin while saying “how much will this get us?” Now seeing the boy and girl I felt pity on them so I gave them a free room, sent one of my waitresses up to clean them up and gave them food and you guessed it, it was the Wind Walker and Mr. Thunder Prince. I let them stay as long as they wanted.”

“So that’s how I meet them and now they think of me like an extra father maybe an old uncle.” He finished chuckling to himself.

There was silence among the group realizing the importance of that moment

Zoe stated the thought they had all come to “So your telling me that if you hadn’t helped them that night they probably wouldn’t have been what they are today?

“Well I wouldn’t go that far” replied Jack.

“I would” stated a gruff voice from behind them all. They turned around to see standing in the middle of stairs listening in on their conversation was Jacob.

 

Before anyone could make any excuses about why they were talking about the young man, Jacob walked over to the bar sat down next to Dan and gave him a white envelope which was sealed with a crest of a feather on a rock.

“What is this” Dan commented.

Jacob didn’t reply but instead looked towards Jack and simply stated that “well ‘Uncle’ could you please get me a strong whiskey?

Jack gave a look which he must of thought made him look suspicious but all it really did was make his cheeks wobble. “If you insist” he replied jokingly before fetching him what he was after. No one made a noise as he fetched the drink, so when the glass clattered onto the table it sounded like a trumpet blowing instead of a small sound.

After taking a swig of his drink Jacob looked over to Dan and pointed towards the Envelop, obviously wanting him to open it.

Dan paused for a moment, contemplating whether he should open it before curiosity got the better of him. Carefully he removed a knife from his sheath, before removing the top of the letter he looked inside to find a note printed in neat cursive. It read:

 

Dear Hunters

I hope this letter finds you well. I am sorry to report that our fight between the Enforcers and there mages have gone badly. It seems that they have found a way to transport themselves into our new home. Knowing this we have decided to hold a meeting of the organization. We discussed in great depth about our new ally or enemy which you have in your protection at the moment. She is not our concern at the moment, if you trust her you can allow her to accompany on this mission. The mission is simply to take out Marcus Flintlock, It may not seem that big of a deal but he is at the Centre of these recent attacks. I know you’re retired but there is no one else I can send. You may use my little guardian in your quest but apart from that I can offer you no more assistance. Please make due haste.

 

Kind Regards

The Organizations Wind Walker

 

Dan slowly pushed himself off his seat and stated bluntly to Zoe who was watching with keen eyes that “Zoe I know this is so soon but would you help me gather the people who will protect this new home?

Zoe knew that even though she didn’t grow up here, she wanted to protect the people here. She wanted to protect the stupid Werewolf who had hit on her, she wanted to protect the friendships she had forged and most of all she wanted to help throw a spanner in the works of these Enforcers. All of these things came to mind as she said

“Yes, I will help”

 

It took them only twenty minutes to pack, wake up a werewolf (who was now drooling on a sock) and get going together the four of them moved out, there faces grim and there capes fluttering in the wind. They rode into the dark with the lives of many upon their shoulders.

 

 

Chapter 8: Jennifer

After many days of weary travel the team slowly rode to a top of a hill which hid the border between the Wind and Water Kingdoms. Not much was said between the travelers for they knew what had to be done. They had been briefed before of where they were going but to a certain girl’s dismay they had not discussed WHO they would be trying to find. As usual the Girl in question was trying to coax one of the men out of this certain bit of information.

“So we are at the border of the Wind Kingdom, I would think as a member of this mission I should know who we are looking for.” She had tried many tactics whilst on the road but they had ignored her half ploy techniques so she was out of options so after some consideration she went for the hit them hard tactic.  

As she stated this question all of her companions looked at her and rolled their eyes as one, she hated when they did that.

“Well little miss information I will give you some hints; her name is Jennifer and she lives in a town called Ula in the northern part of the kingdom. There happy? Will you stop pestering me now?” replied Dan in a patronizing voice.

At this new development her mind ran with possibilities of who this person may be. Everything from a slim shady person to a massive woman was considered, but to no avail the name didn’t fit right. This all took place in her mind in a matter of seconds, storing and filing the new information. To her surprise both James and Jacob reacted to the news with the same ideas floating through their minds, she knew this by their small expression changes which she had discovered on their trips and time together. So they didn’t know much about where they were going until then ether. She cursed herself for being the first one to say anything she only now realized it was a game. Well she couldn’t change it now. She would remember this game of theirs.

After a few minutes of silence passed as they stopped to study the border.

“It seems that we will be heading north then.” Zoe stated trying to get them to talk more.

To her dismay this attempt was countered by a witty remark, which she was the target to all too frequently.

 “No of cause not we will head south to catch the evening breeze before continuing south again until we have traveled across the known world.” Jacob stated.

Not wanting to be patronized anymore she simply cut of the conversation by spurring her horse down the hill towards the border.
