Chapter 8

    As soon as the little elf came back her consciousness, she saw the two of us being back in our normal form.  Thankfully, Lhana brought a clothes with her that I didn’t even notice where she hides it.  But because of her, we now have a clothes to wear. 


 Still I am not sure why she brought a shirt that is so much big that it fits me.
I wonder if it was Ailard's...

 I just shook my head and looked back at the elf.  She was so confused about who we are.  Now I remember that she haven’t seen us in this form since we transform to our wolf form the moment she appeared in front of us. 


 "Who are you?
"


 She asked while holding his head.
Maybe she got some headache after falling and being unconscious.


 I just look at her and Lhana was the one who  answered all her questions.
 I am just sitting here while laying my back in the stone wall as they talk to each other.


 As much as I wanted to be in their conversation I didn't tried to since I might have shredded her into pieces if so.
 


I look at the small elf who surprisingly floating even if she doesn't have a wings.
 


 At first she called us as a fox and then as a dog...
just what the hell is she thinking?  I continued drawing on my map as a spell out some words as a key term for me to remember all the information I think that is necessary to know.  The map is still in my hands. 

 I wonder why they can see what’s the whole figure in this map.  It is as if I am the only one who is capable of knowing what is inside this. The elf peek at it but then she didn't say anything other than a frown look. 

 Now that I have much time to see what are the things that is written in this map that we got from the old wooden box that is buried in that place,  I feel like I am getting to know more information then what I have before.


 I slightly took a gaze in the two girls who was talking to each other not far from my direction.
 Still I can’t accept the fact that they tried to talk to each other in a place that is a little far from me.  Are they an idiot or what?

 It is not as if I can’t hear them.  As a wolf with a skills and talents that none of the average kids in our village have, I can say that all of my senses are above them.

 "So, we are not in fox and we are not the dog. We are a wolf"


 "Yes I know you are a wolf I’m just...
I’m just thinking that... maybe my... my observation is not right like that yeah that’s it..."

 I let out a sigh as I realize that she is faking it.  She’s not telling the truth as if she’s hiding something or just trying to make a words to say that she knew origins in a very first place but the truth is she don't.  You can see her stuttering. You can see her  speaking and not taking I look at Lhana.


 Thankfully it is her who is talking to the small little elf or else...


 I just chuckled not thinking about anything that I might have done to her.
Even I, feared that I might do something bad. 


 So this is indeed the invisible lake...

 
 I tried to divert my attention not to see or not to hear what they are talking about but I can’t help but hear their words since they are not very far from where I am.

This is one of the downsides of having a sensitive ears .  Whether you want it or not, you have no other choice but to hear their words.  That is also why we would strive to communicate in our mind since if one is not accepted in your conversation he or she can’t hear what you were talking about.

 Still I sometimes wonder if that is true since whenever I try to talk with my mother using my mind, my dad will always know what we are talking about


 I sometimes wonder if he is a beast or what.
Still, isn't that something you can call as an insult since I am a beast myself.

 I just shake my head not wanting to have any recollection about those awful memories and where I tried to  speak with my mother and then my father hear all my words to my mom and he doesn’t like what I said and yeah I will send... flying…

I just divert  my attention  to notremember all those memories even if I know that they are now lingering in my mind. 


 Now it’s done


 I mumbled as I let out the finishing touch in my map that I am drawing.
 Now that I finally finished this map I can easily walk around without even thinking of being lost.


 "Emric"  Lhana called my name


 I looked at her and saw that she was coming to my direction with a little elf flying right beside her.


 An elf that is flying.
I thought she can oly float. I wonder if she is indeed an elf or a fairy.


" I think we have to go"


 She said as she pointed the sky.


 If it was dim and dark a while ago, now...
the sky is full of darkness.

 Oh no I think we are really doomed

 "Oh don't you worry it's not that late,  you see... in this area... it is much more advanced than what it is in the outside"

 I look at the elf and Lhana nodded her head in response.


 "alright let's go"
 "let’s go"


 Lhana went in my direction and we were about to find our way out of this invisible lake when we heard the voice of the elf.


 "Aren’t you going to give me a prize since I let you in my territory"


 "What price are you talking about?
it’s not that it is an amusement park or what"


" Amusement park?
what is it"


" I don’t know.
I just read it in a book saying amusement park is a place that you had to pay before going"


" I wanna go there"

" Then go on your own"


" I don’t have any power to do so...
but are you coming back in this place?"


 "I don’t know"


" I can guide you in every place you want but you have to bring me in a amusement park"


 "And if I don’t?
"


" Then you won’t be leaving here"


" And do you think we are afraid?
"


"Well I think you should be afraid"


 She threatened me as she then opened the seal that is surrounding the invisible lake.


 "As soon as I finish this chant...
this place will turn invisible again and will not be open unless someone do the same thing you did at rock from before"


 Lhana look at me and hold my arm
 It is as if she’s telling me that I should just agree to the elf.


It is not that I am scared of being locked in this place but then if what she said is indeed true then I have no other choice but to agree with her decision

 I don’t even know if in amusement park even exists


 Having her as a tour guide would be much easier for us.


 "All right "

 We are now back in our village without anyone knowing where we went.  Just like what the little elf said it is not that dark on the outside since it is not night yet

 The sky was still bright but then you can see that the sun is about to set

 Thankfully we made it in time or else they will make all means just to find the both of us

  "Emric what are you doing?"

 Lana asked me as I hid the hole of the wall with the big round rock.

 "I put a block in this spot so that no one else would find out that there is a path connected to the outside of this wall"


Y"es I know that’s the purpose of what you’re doing but then I thought we were going back here tomorrow"


 
"Yes we are"


She stay quite for a short while.


 "Alright.
Same time?"


 "Sure same time"
