    Part 5

    "The Chicken"

    Andrew looked up to the trees and saw Bob's two friends take off. Well at least he did not have to deal with those two. The only thing was that they did not have what Bob did. Bob carried fear with him wherever he went, while these two people just followed Bob blindly. It might be all that the two had but they could do better. The only thing was there was not much that he could do about it. He had tried before but the fear and Bob thought that he had, had kept the two followers around. He want to help the people of Euterpe but time after time the people wanted was to find the Well they did not want anything else. After looking for this Well for so long he did not think people would still be looking for it, but what you going to do? He did not think it could be found but he did not think that the people around here would give up. He then looked at the bucket and the strange green liquid. How was it that Bob even came to get it? The green liquid bubbled and had a thick look to it. He was thankful that the green liquid did not end up on him. It would take forever to get that green slime off and he rather not have to put up with that.

    Andrew turned to the chicken. "I guess I should thank you. So thanks for your help. Very few people can do what you did. Bob is well hard to put up with. So you went through the forest and ended up here?" The chicken then said, 'Yup. Where are we anyways?' It seemed kind of odd that the chicken just showed up out of nowhere. Who was he to question it. "We are north of the town outside the forest. We call this place Euterpe. Name is Andrew Jacob Canvasback AJ for short. Why are your here?" He had a feeling that he knew why the bird was here if he was indeed real but then again who was he to question the dream? The well? 'A HUGE VOID OF DARKNESS SUCKED ME INTO THE SKY! IT TOOK AWAY MY HOME AND FRIENDS! I'm HERE BY MYSELF AND FOR ALL I KNOW THIS PLACE COULD GO KABLOOEY AT ANY MOMENT!' Chicken little has become spastic and is running about all over the place 'Also, My name is Chicken Little. Nice to meet yah.' He stops running around Andrew to offer a quick handshake. "Clam down a little." So the chicken thought that the world would go kablooey. He did not think that was going to happen. He did not know how that would be even possible. "A void of darkness into the sky? There is nothing going to happen to the world. There is nothing going to happen at all. wait.." He took the birds hand and then let go and said, "was there a earthquakes or any big holes in the ground." He was rather confused by the whole thing. 'No.. yes! I don't know, it all happened so fast! I said the sky was falling and no one believed me! It just turned dark... Everything went dark...' yes, no which one was it. "So you are not here to find something? There was darkness. The only thing that happens here is rain and then when it gets colder it snows but that all about all that happens Chicken Little." Could it be... A year ago something happened to Euterpe a big hole showed and... well he did not want to really think about it. 'Well, it's not like any of them liked me anyways... I was a joke to them! I made one little slip and was outcasted. Only a few people even talked to me.'

    "The only joke would be them and you have people that care about you back home. You have friends." It was more then he could say for himself. He appeared to be sad for a moment then smiled to mask his thoughts. To think that someone with more than one friend when the only one he had was gone. It appeared that this chicken was not here for the Well and did not know about it. It was almost like he was whisked away and put here. Why now if anything this was strange but was not strange now. 'Easy for you to say... but you never made a fool of yourself before... Not as bad as I did.' He put his head against a tree as an acorn dropped on his head when he did. "You have to think with what is up here" pointing to his head and "here" pointing to his heart. He then bent down a picked up the acorn. "Just like this acorn you will grow up to do something great be something more then you are now. You know what they say every day is a new day and today is a new day." He could not believe that he was giving advice to a chicken. Chicken little mustered out a smile. 'I just hope they're okay is all.' "I am sure they will be fine. Who are your friends anyways? Maybe I have seen them." He did not think he ever seen the chicken's friends but it did not hurt to ask. 'Well, one's name is Runt.... He's a pig. And then there's Abby... she's a duck. And then of course there's fish... whose a fish.' "Sorry to say but i have not seen them. I am sure that they will show up at some time at some point. Friends have a habit of showing up when you need them most." While it was not true for him it was not like it was not true for this chicken. He wished that it was true for him but it simply was not the way things worked. "Well we could always go look for your friends. What do you say?" Chicken little nods.

    Part 4


    "The Bully"


    Andrew luck was looking like it was ending. Would Bob do what he did before? Be the undoing of what he wanted. Bob took a step forward and he took a step back. Luck did he even have any? The world had been unlucky. People doing what they wanted. People doing whatever and not helping anyone. People looking for the Well that may or may not be real. Looking for something that they had once. For a wish. For something that may be or may not be. Wanting for the world to be and a wish.

    Did it bring people hope like his mom had said or was it about the greed that he thought it was. The greed that he was sure was not going to end anytime soon. It might be just be the way things happened. Then Bob took another step forward and Andrew took another step backwards. 'You cannot run forever' he said with a smile. He was not running. He had no reason to run. He was cut off from the forest and had nowhere to go. No one to help. Even if there was help they would just walk by without a second thought. Where would he run to when he could not really move? Fear was not something Bob gave to him. Bob gave fear to some but not to him. Bob did so much. He did the unthinkable and most said it just happened. That Bob did not mean it. His thoughts were not thought of people did not care what Bob did. It was like ops and move on. Some things that he rather not think about. Sometimes he could not help but think about that event. It was a wonder that he had followers. He was the fear that gave him power over the others. It was the fear that gave him power. It was the greed that let Bob get away with the things that he did.

    He was starting to be backed up to a tree. 'You will fear me. You will do as I say.' Bob had always had power over most but not him and he could not figure out why. Andrew would not bend to his rules. Bend to his whim to the power that he thought he had. The power that he thought he had over everyone. He tried to be friend with Bob but it just would not happen. It just was not met to be. Bob was to hostel. He was to out there. He was a bully just because he could be. He wondered what Bob was going to do with him, to him. Bob then said 'just like...' That was when something unexpected happened. A walking turkey showed up or a chicken, whatever it was it was strange. He had on a striped green shirt and short blue pants. There was also green glasses on his face. The chicken must have been three feet tall. While it was tall for a chicken he did not know what to think of a walking chicken that looked like a human. The chicken then scurries around before bumping into AJ's leg. 'What do we have here?' Bob said look at the chicken that showed up. 'What kind of trick is this? Whatever it is you will not get away with it.' he said looking at Andrew.

    Andrew was completely confused by the whole thing. He had no part of whatever it was but he kind of wished that he did because of the effect it was having on Bob. A walking chicken was one thing but a dressed one was another. What kind of chicken was dressed. The only explanation was that he was dreaming somehow. Yea that had to be it. How on the earth did this happen? He was not afraid for some reason of the chicken. That was when the bird chicken said 'What's with me? What's with you! You guys got no feathers or fur! What kind of monsters did that to you!?' Bob looked confused for a moment. 'What are you doing here bird?' 'Well.. I lost the baseball game. And then, the sky started falling!' He looked around for anything familiar. 'And I ran to the forest, but then the sky started falling!' He then thought for a moment. 'Whatever it is..' He looked up to the trees for a moment. 'Now.' Bob had a smile on his face. With that Andrew looked up and saw a bucket being pushed down by two people in the trees. Not today Andrew thought. With one swift motion he pulled the talking chicken out of the way before the bucket fell from the tree and landed spilling some kind of thick green liquid onto the ground. What was the green liquid? On second thought it might be better not to think about it. Bob then walked up to the chicken and said, 'How is it that you speak bird? What trick is this Andrew?' He then picked up the chicken and smiled. His face turned to something else. He could not tell what it was. Was it fear or something else? 'What you are real?' Then Bob put the chicken down and turned to leave walking backwards and slipped onto the green liquid face first. Then he tried to get up and slipped onto his back. He was now covered in a think green liquid. Andrew looked at the talking bird. A baseball game, the sky falling. It did not make any sense. The forest, was that how the talking bird chicken got here? He could not help but wonder how the chicken got here. He did not know what to say. This was the first time Bob ever left for any reason. His mom said to have fun when he had left the house but he did not think this was the idea she had in mind. Well if anything Bob was now covered in some kind of green liquid. He looked at the chicken not knowing what to say.

    Part 3


    "The Forest"


    Andrew walked to towards his bed and made it without thinking all that much. He walked over to his desk and put a book mark into the book he had open and shut it. He left the book where it was from the night before. He enjoyed reading. Some of the stories were where people mad friends. There were others where most got along. Then there were some with quest that lasted years. Then there was him who never did anything that made him stand out. He did not have a story to tell and he was no hero. He did not know what to think or do. He got ready to go. He grabbed his bag and walked out the door of his room without much thought. Thinking about his dream the night before as he walked, the outline of the key unsure what to think or do. What did it all mean? There was these dark dogs that made no sound. Really to come to think about it there was no sound at all. Then there was the darkness in every direction. Also there were the humans that he saw. It made him wonder who they were. He also wondered if they wanted anything in his dream. He guessed that it might be best not to think about it. Some thought that dreams were clue to find the Well others did not share this thought. He himself really did not give it much thought. He was quite tired of this whole Well thing. He hoped that one day everyone would forget about it but so far this was not true. He looked at his mirror on his way. He had golden blond hair. His hair was normal length. He was quite tall and rather skinny. It was a wonder that his mother was able to find anything in his size. He was not all that strong but what he did not have in strength in outsmarted with his brain. It was how he got out of situations so far. For the most part he had been lucky. What stood out as he looked at the mirror were his light blue eyes on his face. Most people had rather dark eyes and very few had light eyes. The color of other hair ranged from a light brown to black. He guessed he was unique in a way. He turned down a hallway in his house and went down the hard wooden stairs. He walked into the kitchen to his mother standing there. The kitchen was rather simple with wooden floors and cabinets all around. On one end sat a table with a four chairs that surrounded it. On the other end of the kitchen was a sink next to a window that over looked the fields and then farther on was the forest. On the table sat a bowl of fruit. While they did not have much they got by. Compared to others who got as much as they could inside their house. It was all about the greed. The treasure was important too and then there was the wish. It was what people could get. Not many but few still helped others.

    He looked at his mother who had golden blond hair and light sky blue eyes. Today she had on a brown shirt and dark blue pants. She was a simple woman and one of the few people that cared about the way things should be and the other people around. As he entered the kitchen his mother said, 'Andrew, what do you plan on doing today? Where will you go?' He had not gave it much thought. He tried not to think about the outside too much. "Well you know how things are out there. I really do not know. You know that it..." He stooped himself in mid-sentence. There next to his mother were two people. A woman and a man. This could not be good. What did they want? The only time someone came around here was to get something. Only question was, what did they want? It was most likely something to do with the Well. The woman had jet black hair that went down to the middle of her back. She had on dark red top and black pants. The man had short light brown hair. He had on a dark blue top with black pants. He was sure that they had found a clue around here and that was the only reason that they were here. "What are they doing here?" He looked at his mother for an answer that he was sure he already had the answer to. 'They found something' "Of course they did. What was it they time?" 'Come on 'AJ' we might finally find the Well with this’ the woman said to him. "Don't..." Very few people... it was not worth it. He was far too nice to let this woman get to him. 'Zoey just wants to be your friend' his mother said. Please the only time someone wanted something from him was to find this Well. Help with the clue. "Ok, so what is it they need?"

    The man steeped forward and thought for a moment. 'Name is Lucas. We want to search the land around here, Andrew.’ He knew something was up. "You are not going to find anything. We lived here forever. I been here sixteen years at this home and never found a thing on the land." 'This time we might' the man said. "Go for it. Search the land all you want." This whole Well thing was getting old. 'We were hoping to get your help to search' the woman said. Keep on hoping he thought. "Um, no thanks, I am sure you will do fine with what you have." 'This is your land.' He let out a sigh. "I am not going to be able to find anything any better than anyone else." The only good thing about this was it would give him something to do. 'Don’t you want to find the Well Andrew?' the man said. "No it will be found or be hidden just as always." All it was, was a tale, a story. "People searched for this Well for hundreds of years, today is not going to be any different than the days before." 'Alright I guess we will go without you.' They looked at him for a moment and the woman said, 'one day someone will find the Well.' With that the man and the woman left the house. "What was that all about?" 'It was what it is always about Andrew,' his mother said. He looked at his mother for a moment. 'The Well it gives people hope.' No it gives people greed, he thought. It might be hope there but there would be no need if people just worked together. There was the treasure and the wish. Lucky they had pictures of the way things used to be. The pictures were few but they could be found. He saw himself what Euterpe had looked like hundreds of years ago. He did not see why people would not just work toward the way it was instead of what people wanted it to be. He thought it was fine the way it was but no longer was the case. "I think that I will be going." 'Have fun and don't stay out to late.' Yea 'fun' that was the word he thought of whenever he left the house. He put on a smile for his mom, grabbed his bag and went out the door of his house.

    He did not know where to go. He knew that he did not want to see the two people that just showed up at his house. They were most likely deep into the forest now so there was a slim chance into running into them. To the north of the town was a forest, where people were sure more than anything that the Well was somewhere inside, despite people searching high and low of the thing in the forest. Then to the east was a small lake where most went to in the summer. Now it was too cold to swim in. To the south was where the farms and a nearby river ran into the lake. Then to the west was more of the city. He decided to walk north east with no reason. He continued to walk past the lake that had many leaves from the tress in it. Not many people seemed to be out at all. Soon there would be less with the incoming winter. He continued to walk north with the lake on his right. He walked tell he saw someone in the distance next to the forest. The forest was rather close now. He walked in a different direction trying to avoid whoever it was. The leaves beneath his feet made a crunch and well it did not turn out well. Luck was not on his side and he saw the person turn around and spot him. As the person walked towards him he saw who it was oh no anyone but him. Bob, in terms of bullies he was the king of them all. Bob was well to put it nice nicely rather large. His arms were huge. The one thing that could be said that he did not have was brains. Today he had on a black jacket with a red shirt underneath. He had on black pants and shoes. His hair was the oddest of all. It was short and what use to be black hair was now red from the die he had always put in it or so they say. Some thought that it was not die at all but something else and others thought it was some kind of red food and it died his hands and he put it into his hair. He himself did not know what to think of it. The first option was just as likely as the second. both ways he tried not to think about it. It was something about making look cool or something and anyone that questioned well it was best not said. Why did the leaves on the trees need to be falling? The only thing going for him was that when he was younger he took some self-defense classes. Bob walked up to him and said, 'What did I tell you about coming around here?' He did not answer right away. He wanted to avoid this incoming fight. It was not going to end that well for him. The question in his mind did not really require an answer. He slightly wondered where his followers were but he was sure that they would show up at some point as they always did.

    He turned to walk away to signal that he was leaving. 'I did not say that you could not leave boy', Bob said. What did he want? A fight that he was certain that he did not want. Bob always wanted a fight. He wanted to hurt everything that was not on his side. Bob wanted everyone and anyone to suffer. Most if not all the people were ether friends with him or afraid of what he might do. It was once told that he threw someone into the lake in the middle of winter just because. "I won’t come back this way again." Bob looked at him with a questioning look. 'I want something to punch.' Andrew thought for a moment. "Well there is a tree right there that you can practice on if you want," he said with a smile. Bob then came at him and he moved to the side. He did not understand why Bob wanted to fight so badly. This whole fighting thing was getting old. As far as he was concerned he was done with this. "I do not want to fight you Bob." Bob looked at him for a moment and then said with a smile 'I know you don't, but I do.' He wondered what Bob would try to do this time. He got the feeling that today his luck might end.

    Part 2

    "The Dream"


    Andrew closed his eyes from the light and then he opened them. He found himself in bed. A dream, but what did it mean? He got out of bed and walked over to the window. He looked out the window and there was not much to say about Euterpe. It was a name of a place. Euterpe was interesting for a lack of a better word. People for the most part were not that friendly. Euterpe was not always like that, well according to the stories that went around. People now were mostly in it for them self. Very few people were in it for others. Now Euterpe and where to start? Andrew began to think of the stories he read and the ones his mother told him. They went something like this...

    ...Euterpe was peaceful in ancient times and everyone worked together towards the better of the land. Long ago it is said that a person of unknown gender had some sort of magic. They were happy with the way people had worked together. So one day they told the people of the land. 'If you wish for the land to remain as it is all you have to do is rejoice in the way things are. Work together and you shall find the Well of delight. To the first who find untold wealth and a wish awaits you. Stay as one you will not find anything but remorse and anger. Together you will find what you desire. If you do not one of heart and mind will be able to find what was lost but can be found. Clues you will find to point you the way to untold treasures. The desert of want and needs, the sea of deep wonders and the forest of wonder and thought you will get what you all desire.'

    That day the person left without a trace and was never seen from again. At first people began to work together to find the unknown Well thing the person had talked about. As the years went on people began to look for the Well them self. As the years went on people began to figure out that there was no sea, desert or forest with names in the prophecy the person had said. The was not even a sea or a desert anywhere to be found. The forest that was near was searched but nothing was found. Years and years went on with no Well being found. With the years going on and on some began to give and lose hope. Most began to work for only there benefit. This continued until the current day where and glimmer of a clue was taken from you and was used to find the Well. Not many clues were found and the ones that were did not lead to anywhere. And that was how the story went.

    As for the person that told the prophecy no one ever could figure out if it was a man or a woman. The person was cover from head to toe in a white cloak. The only thing that was to see on the person was the face and even then the details were lost.

    He once found an object, which was taken shortly after he found it. He was not even looking for and clue of the Well. Just one day he was walking on the outskirts of the forest and the fields. The object he found was an amulet. The amulet itself appeared to be made of gold and was rather small. The metal on the Amulet was not gold according to those who looked at it. The amulet was light. Some thought that there might be something inside but no one ever found a way to open it. After the whole using the amulet as a clue to help find a Well, the Well of a wish, the Well of treasure and the Well of delight or whatever Well it was not found. Really that was no surprise. The amulet was then given back to him. From that day on he always had the amulet on him. Then one day he dropped it on the ground and it opened up and out rolled a silver look disk. Not telling any about it he kept the disk inside the amulet.

    The outside was nice this time of year.
    The trees were starting to turn color but most of the trees remained green. The colors on the trees were a rainbow of colors. Really it was a nice looking time of year. He looked out the window. There seemed to be a slight wind but nothing too big. The leaves on the tress moved ever so slightly. Thinking back to the days and weeks before nothing was odd just the unusual amount of rain. While rain was not odd this time of year the amount of the rain was. Today was not one of those days. The sun was just coming up. It looked like it might rain later today.

    He tried to put a smile on his face but it did not come.
    He did not know what was so special about today that could not be said about the days and weeks before. The only thing that seemed to change around here was the weather. The people were the same day in day out. They acted the same and it seemed that as friendly as he was the people around did not care or change. Sometimes he wondered why he even try with them at all. He guessed that it was the way he is. He has to help people no matter who they are or what they do to him. In the end it was all about finding that Well for most and for some it was all that they lived for.

    He turned away from the window and back to the bed he just got out of and let his thoughts go by.
    He looked at his room. The room was rather simple. The room its self was simple. The room had a bed up on one wall. There were two bookshelves full of books. He enjoyed reading none of the book had anything to do with the Well. Then there was a desk with a chair that he sometimes sat at. That was about it.

    He still could not stop thinking that today would be somehow different then the days and weeks before. He guessed that today would be however it turned out to be. Today he felt like something would happen but he did not know what it would be. He walked over to the bed and made it. His mind was mostly a blank, while he made the bed. He did not even know what he was going to do today. Undoubtedly someone from around here would make fun of him or something along those lines. The only questions was who would it be today and when would it happen. Everyday someone would bully him or make fun of him or they would do something. The only time it did not happen was when he stayed home and even them it was an issue.

    Fortunately I know quite a bit about this subject. I have worked with young children for quite some same and question like this one comes up a lot. I do not know much about when children get older because I only world with children from the age 2 1/2 and 6 years old. Imagination and creativity is going down but it is not from what you think. Children stop pretending around the first or second grade six though the age of 8. Playing with objects continue until the age of 12 but without the pretend play. The first issue comes when children go into preschool, where more of my experience is from. Parents come into the school and the see their child playing and their reaction is they are not learning. (Child is not doing anything but playing). Parents do not see that by playing their child is learning. Children learn by playing with each other. Playing with others promotes sharing, social development, cognitive development, emotional well-being of children, and increases Physical Activity. Play is so important to optimal child development. Play makes stress leaves go down. Play allows children to use their creativity while developing their imagination, dexterity, and physical, cognitive, and emotional strength. Play is important to healthy brain development. Play helps children explore the world in a way that they can understand. first we need to make parents understand what play does for the child because they will and think that they can have their child play at home and not send them to school. Children at home will not get the interaction that they will at school. Social development is a important one and looking at the way things are people are becoming less and less social. Curriculum is being pushed down more than it was in the past. Parents want the academic and not the play but parents do not see that they go hand in hand. Imagination and creativity is going down because of curriculum and parents. I worked with child for a number of years and still they do not understand what play does not matter what you do. Ask anyone what their favorite time in school way and it was most likely something to do with playing or something fun. As for older children play is still an important part of development. Stress is in everyone's life and play can help with that. Children need many things in their life to develop.

    Part 1

    "The Darkness"
    Andrew ‘AJ’ Jacob looked around. All he could see was darkness in every direction. The darkness did not bother him too much. He had rather good eye sight when it came to walking and looking around in the dark. He had no memory on how he got here or why, although he did not really think about it. The darkness had an effect on him. He began to think back to a time when someone thought it would be a good idea to come up on him in the dark a dump something on him. He saw this act coming a mile away so it did not happen. It was one of the many things he was good at. He picked a random direction and stared walking. There was not much to see considering how dark it was. He lost track of how long he was walking for. He did not even know what he was looking for if anything. He continued to walk until he saw something or someone in the distance. He could not make out who there were. The only thing that he could make out was that they were human. It was more of a shadow than anything else. He tried to get a closer look but the person just keep getting farther and farther away. There was no sound or really much of anything. He tried to say something but nothing came out. There was nothing for him to do but to follow them. The whole time he followed the he tried to make out what they were wearing but they must have had on all black because he could not make out a single detail. He then almost tripped over something looking down there was an outline of a key. He could not see any more detail other than that. He bent down to pick it up but could not find it at all it was almost like it disappeared. He looked up to see several looking dog things in the distance. Something told him that getting close to them was not a good idea. He turned and ran in a random direction. He looked behind him once or twice to only see the dog outline behind him. He still could not make out any detail. Then a bright light appeared out of nowhere. A blinding bright light. He closed his eyes for a moment and...

    That was when Alastar asked some questions. 'So? There's also the option of it having just been us who got thrown to the side.' Why did the man pick this time to ask a question? At this point she did not know what to do with the man. "Everyone is in danger. The Witchers need to gather soon. We should meet at..." That was when Alastar started running around and distracted her. She did not know if her message got through or not with Alastar baking her concentration there was no telling if anything got through. She had to think of every out come. She looked to Alastar. The anger raged through Alastar as clear as it was on the mans face. The anger would only cloud his mind and it was better to let him vent now then to have to deal with it later on. She watched as Alastar ran around the ruins of the fortress. It would do the man some good to let lose out there. It was better that he let it out on the ruins of the fortress then her so she would just let him have at it. Besides, it was not like the man could do any more damage to the already broken walls. She looked out to Alastar who at this point was looking at a dead body. He was looking for some information. She stood by waiting for Alastar to cool down. She would just have to wait until the man was ready to talk or to say anything. While she waited she thought about not getting a message if that was indeed what happened or if it was some product of Alastar running off. There was a few options with the message some not good some bad. One was that the message did not go through at all. Two was that it was ignored. Three was that the Witchers did not have the medallion on, thust not getting the message. Four was that every Witcher was dead. There was so many option to list or to think of.

    'Yes indeed girl, Rayyad is lying. Thank you for noticing' Well clearly he was. She wondered how the others did not notice. 'Why did you have to question it? Why can't you just accept the lie? Everything was going perfectly fine until you had to point that out.' "I will Not stand by when it as clear as day that you are lying. Now what does the totem really do?" That was when Lord Arval Galaharram showed up. Something was not right about his sudden appearance. There was a fight about to happen she was sure of it.

    'You don't know sh*t son!' "Really? You know nothing. I was involved with assassins a long time ago, so I think, wait I know what is going on when it comes to them. You have no idea what they can be like." This man had no clue what assassins were like. If you did not get away, take them out or play along you were as good as dead when it came to assassins. 'Could have taken them all down yourself and never have been seen at all. Oh wait, your ass is injured. Guess who's flawless' "Oh you so smart that you could figure out the password all by yourself, oh wait your to stupid for that other wise you would have already figured out the password. You need us because you are to stupid to figure it out yourself. I know what it is like to be apart of a team but that is something I do not see in you. I am smart enough to know that it takes more then one person in a team. As they say there is no 'I' in team." 'Get that stick out of your ass before I take it out and beat you to death with it.' "Don't you threaten me again." 'Come on guys, we have to look for this password.' "Yes, Sir Venger." He was quite tired of Kellan.

    'How do you know that huh? Got some ****ing magical proof that she is somehow out there' She could not believe Alastar. "We ended up somewhere else so there no reason to say the same did not happen to the others." 'Honestly why the **** would you ask to do something if it could potentially help in this thing instead of just ****ing doing it.' She wanted to give the man the option of choice. Now it did not matter. She wanted to help this man but there was really no helping him now. With that took a hold of her medallion and thought of what she wanted. She reached out to every Witcher that she could. "Hay, Derrick, other Witchers. I know that we are not to use the medallions, but we need to gather the remaining Witchers...."

    Tessa said something about stupid humans. It was odd in a way. There was nothing to do though. Conrad said something and she turned to him. Anger came to her. The fool did not understand. "You wont have to worry much longer." She turned away from the man and walked after Lumen. If anyone would understand what was going on it would be him. She walked up behind him and whispered to him so that only he could hear. "Rayyad is lying about the totem. That it is a binding totem. That it is keeping him locked here. I saw him in the forest so there is no way the totem is keeping him here. Do what you will with this information." What Lumen would do with the information she just whispered to him she could not say. She was not sure if she was better off here, but she felt so alone.

    'You look like a horse trampled all over you, you dumb sh*t. You can't take on the Burning Blade if you got your ass handed to you by a couple of thugs.' "Don't you dare question me. I know more about assassins then anyone here. If you want my help I suggest you knock it out." He was not just someone from the militarily he had first hand experience with assassins and if need be he would use it. He walked behind the other without saying much else. They soon arrived at where the problem that the Burning Blade had. A deep voice then said, 'All those who seek passage will provide proof of loyalty to Janus Wintermist. Answer my questions, and you shall be permitted passage.' He looked at Kellan. "If you are so smart then you will not have a problem figuring out how to get past the door all by your self." He then looked at Aston with the look of, Why in the world are we helping this fool.

    She continued to walked when the Kaer came into view. Kaer was gone. She was not sure how it happened. Her first thoughts went to the portal that brought her and Alastar together. She watched as Alastar charge down the path. She had nothing better to do but to follow him. She reached the man's side. Something big had to cause this. She knew what the next step would be but did not know if Alastar was ready for it. After some time of not saying anything she thought it would be a good time to say something to Alastar. "The others could have ended up somewhere else like we did. There is not really a way to find out one way or another." Her mind went to the medallion on her, while it was possible to use it to reach the other Witchers she did not know if she want to find out using it. "I can reach the other Witchers if you would like", She told Alastar. One thing that was for sure was that they needed to find the living Witchers that were out there. With that she looked at the home that was more more.

    Morning came and went. Time was unknown. It was now time that he should get going. He figured that he should stop somewhere and get things before he headed out. He began walking in Novigrad finding a building and went into it. He was going to get some food before heading out, but shock on who he saw when he went into the building was unreal. The dwarf Wilfred Hoover sat at a table. He wondered what that man was doing here. He walked up to the man. "Wilfred? What are you doing here? I was about to head back to your village I found out the information on that sword." He looked at the man. he did not seem like the type to leave town all that often but, people surprise you sometimes.

    She continued to walk. The world was in a sad state. "The world maybe in a sad state..." She was going to say more but, she stopped herself. The man lived in a sad state and she did not think that there was much she could say to the man to help him. The world was dark, yes but, there need to be seen the light. If someone let the darkness get to them then it would it was as simple as that. The darkness needed to be shown that it would not be stopped so easily.

    'won't be an aweful lot to see there, Lass, maybe a bruise but you won't see all the organs that are internally bleeding all over you, the world is fun that way.' "I would not call the world fun. We just need to as Witchers make the necessary sacrifice." There was not much else to say. She continued to walk on the path. She wanted to get out of here. She wanted to help the man go find something to healp eal his arm, but he was not having any of it.

    She let go of Laurentinus' arm. The strage spider man person thing said his name was Rayyad Khayrat. Tessa then took a step in front of Rayyad. She did not know what the girl was thinking. She would not attack anyone unless she had to. That said Rayyad did not seem dangerous at the moment. "You could have asked for help instead of kidnaping my friends," She told Rayyad. Kara then asked how they would get back home. "We go back the way we came in." She did not understand what the big deal with Shyra was. Then there was the whole hurting Rayyad thing. If she was going to hurt the spider she would have already done it. So they should just move on. Conrad then began help with the situation, she not know if it would do anything. 'Oh, and the totem is a binding totem, it's keeping me locked here.' What how did that work? She saw this man outside of this cave so there was no way the totem was keeping him here. No one seemed to notice that that the totem was not keeping Rayyad here. She did not know if she should say anything or not yet so she stayed quiet for now. She walked away from Laurentinus and walked towards Lumen not wanting to be apart of what ever fight was sure to come. She began to think that she did not really belong here.

    The man that they saved said his name was Roric. Aston walked towards Fogwarden Keep he followed because there was not much to do. He walked up to Fogwarden Keep. Went up the staircase and reached the top. They ended up finding Kellan. He then said that he talked to one of the people here. Well, at least some did. It turned out that Fogwarden Keep was maintained by Golems. There was the choice of fight the Burning Blade or figuring out the cod for something. "Well both of them do not seem all that difficult."

    The Shuttle took off and it was time to go. The shuttle landed and they were met with Lieutenant Corenna. The man was asking for orders. He let out a sigh this man was not smart enough to figure out things on his own. He listened to what Lieutenant Corenna had to say. This was going to be interesting place to defend. 'David, go make yourself bloody useful' This man clearly had no clue who he was dealing with. If the Shards had only two present of the usefulness he had they would have won this war long ago. Really it was to bad that this sort of thing happened. He looked at the many weapons in the shuttle to took several bombs with him and set off to take a look at the camp. He took a walk around the camp taking his time looking at where the hammer would come from. He placed a bomb and put magic on top of it to mask it. It would be almost imposable for any of the hammer to find these and if they did it would be to late. He continued to walk around the camp placing bombs around it as he walked and used his magic to hide them. He returned to the camp after setting up the bombs. This was going to be interesting. Time for a battle. "I place bombs around the camp and hid them so if the hammer get to close boom." He looked at the camp. "If there is nothing else I will be going to find a place to use as a battle placement."

    She watched as the basilisk flew up into the sky and then fly off with its partner to the west. It was old that the basilisk took off. That was when Alastar asked her if she was alright. "The basilisk got me on the left side and it hurt so I will have to take a look at it when we get out of here." 'We should go before they come back' "Right the farther and faster we get out of here the better." She then looked around. "Your arm is broken we should get something for that. Also the basilisks took off for some reason. We should get going."
