Fifteen Journey - Chapter 46

A/N: Now, I don’t know what to write. Oh well, some spotlight for Fred at last. Rock on!

Chapter 46 – Past meeting

Fred was extremely tired. A day had passed since Rick had fought Matt, it was night already, but the group was not capable of doing all the necessary things. First, they had to move from the place they were, so that the player would not know they’re location and, then, they had to ntake care of Rick’s wounds in the back, front and from the battle with Katie where he injured his hand. Mike was the responsible for medical treatment as he was the only one who took that subject at the universal academy, so Fred and the three girls spent almost the entire afternoon collecting plants to prepare some medicine.
Fred’s job was never finished so he had been given the task of keeping an eye on the surroundings for about 3 hours, in case someone would attack. He wasn’t inside his robot but had it near in case it would be needed.
Why was he there at the clod weather? He could be at the fireplace, telling a story to his brothers right now. Instead, she was “serving” a guy who had never done a thing for him. However, he did had create a bond of friendship. If Fred now said to Rick he’d leave, Rick would not accept it that easily. Plus, he had a very good reason to stay.
Suddenly, Fred heard a noise in the bushes and a heavy breath.
“Who’s there?” he asked afraid it would be another Tourch player.
Instead of attacking him, the new presence hugged him.
“I’ve missed you too much… Too much…”
Fred recognised the soft brown hair and hugged her in return. “You shouldn’t be here… I’m serving-“
She looked directly at him. “Rick Flaim, I know.”
“How did you…?”
She lowered her head. “I’m serving a Tourch player as well.”
“Who is him?”
She avoided eye contact. “I cannot tell you, he ordered me not to do so.”
“So know you are following someone else’s orders! That’s not the Elain I know!”
She smiled remembering the old times. But became serious short after.
“Matt told him everything, including the battle you’ve had. Aren’t you hurt?”
Fred nodded negatively.
Elain pushed him closer to her again. Smelling her scent was something Fred had missed for quite a long time, so he stayed like that for a long time. That scent remembered him of the past: their walks in her garden, their adventures, their fights, and, most important, their friendship. Elain was just a few centimetres smaller than him, which she noticed.
“You’ve grown up again, haven’t you?”
“Sorry…” she punched him in the face.
“Stop growing up already! And to think that I used to be taller than you…” but she quickly recovered her smile.
Fred sat in the wooden bench. “Here, take a seat.” She did so. “Want some noodles? My companions made them.”
Elain was suspicious about the veracity of the soup but quickly changed her mind after tasting it.
“It’s wonderful!”
“You should have tasted the soup Mat did for the girls… Have you ever tasted his food?”
She was still eating but she answered quickly.
“No, Matt is usually busy with stuff so we do all the cooking…”
“We?” he asked suspicious.
“Me and another player…” Fred assumed it was the remaining undefeated player. “Well, time is running and I must go…”
“Already?” he asked obviously sad.
She nodded and stood up, looking around for the place she had appear in. “Just one more thing: Sloan is not easy to defeat.”
“Sloan, hem…”
“Yes, please be careful. As for the place he’s in…”

Memories - Chapter 9

Here it is: the ninth and last chapter of Memories. However, there is still an epilogue, so look forward for it. ;P

Chapter 9 - Last moment

A gentle breeze slapped my face. I was dizzy but it was all made very clear as soon as I opened my eyes. “AH!” Indeed, I was one step away from the cliff I had been admiring the other day. Laying in the ground, I noticed, both tied, a sad Rienna and a confused Serena, the two pretty awoken. “What… what’s going on?”

Memories - Chapter 8

Hi again. Chapter 8 is here. If everything goes alright, I'll finish this story in two weeks. Look forward for it!

Chapter 8 - My inner struggle

“What… what have you done all these years?” My dad smiled. “Saving your life.” I didn’t reply. I kept staring at the cell phone, hoping something would happen, maybe waiting for Rienna to stop me or to Serena to appear and comfort me. Sincerely, I had no intention to phone him but my fingers were moving by themselves. Soon, I found the phone connecting as my father smiled in sign of approval.

Fifteen Journey - Chapter 45

A/N: Woot! Chapter 45 already! I’m ultra-fast!

Chapter 45 – The Unpredictable

They looked perplexed at Matt like in asking for an explanation.
“If a player orders you to be in his crew, the only thing you can do is obey his orders, right?”
Rick did not know what to say. He had a lot of questions to ask Matt but Fred was the first.
“Where did you get that sword?”
Matt turned at him, like seeing him for the first time. “You could say family treasure…”
Noticing many people had questions to ask, except for Sarith, who was congratulating Rick, and Ashley, who was looking worried at Mike, Matt decided to clear what he had in mind.
“So, I must return and report your location to the guy who is still playing.”
The guy? One guy only? Rick was confused but Matt walked away.
“Wait,” Cassey asked. “Please stay with us!”
He smiled at her. “Sorry pretty blond girl. I must go.” And he kissed her in the cheek, causing her to blush, also provoking Sarith’s giggles. He then turned at Rick.
“I will not wish you luck because I am not willing to your victory. Bye bye all!”
Confused, all the teenagers watched Matt leaving, as the morning sun appeared in the horizon line.

“I am gonna kill you!”
Katie was desperate. Vince had ordered her to collect food for his dragon while he was gathering information on something else he did not tell her about. However that wasn’t the worst: his dragon needed a great portion of food. Painfully, she would bring the food to Mrs. Ride, the name of the dragon. Who’d name Mrs. Ride his pet?
It was dark already, so her job could be finally over. She’d always stick close to the dragon, that way she didn’t need a blanket to warm her up. Vince usually appeared very late at night, so Katie did all the meals by herself. And she was improving.
There was also another great thing about being with Vince, which she couldn’t explain. The feeling of partnership as she had toold him a lot about her and Vince had improved a lot, since he said more things now than before.
But that night she couldn’t sleep, so she waited for Vince’s return. After some minutes of frustration, he finally appeared.
“Still awake?” he asked heading to the food.
“Can’t sleep… What have you found today?”
He looked at her in the corner of his eye while eating some noodles. “A Tourch ex-player.”
“Really?” she asked worried.
He nodded. “I think she was heading to the place where I found magic the other day.”
“Did you get to speak with her?” she asked worried.
“No, she was in a hurry. Anyway, we have nothing to do with that…” he paused for a bit. “Mmm, the noodles are better than usual.
Katie blushed. “Ahm, thanks…”
As soon as Vince finished his meal, he continued his report.
“Actually, I found Rick and the robotics guy the other day.” Katie’s attention was recovered. “They were commenting something on fourth clovers…”
Katie laughed. “Those guys are hopeless…”
Vince looked at the blue moon. “I don’t think Rick will succeed in the games. The amount of magic I’ve tracked lately was enormous; with a sword he cannot beat that.”
“What are you planning on doing?” she asked nervously.
He smiled. “Nothing at all. Just be a normal spectator.”

Memories - Chapter 7

Hiya again. Happy new year for all!!!

I'm aiming to finish this story as soon as I can, so expect billions of Memories chapters to appear at one time. Thus, there are only 2 chapters left to write, plus an epilogue. I'll try to post a cartoon too, but I'm not sure yet.

Enjoy!

As soon as I opened my eyes, I noticed I wasn’t in the same place anymore. In front of me, a thick glass separated me from the environment. Rienna was sleeping next to me, just like an angel. After all, she was young.
