Betrayal

Rowan ran and ran carrying his little sister as a battle went down with the knight and the king

Rowan wanted to thank the knight but couldn't due to the situation

" Goddamit! I gotta get out of this place! "

Rowan saw something flying at the corner of his eye

CRASH

He saw the knight that saved them earlier lying down covered in the rubble of the ground

" RUN! You're wasting time just standing there! g-get out of here! " The knight shouted as he stood up ready to fight the king once again

" How awful " The king stood quietly just behind Rowan

.................

" CRAP! " Rowan woke up sweating

" My my! When will you get over that horrible memory! That was 4 years ago! And it makes me jump and worry for you to wake up sweating and screaming! " Gia complained

" I'm sorry, I'm trying my best to forget about it" Rowan sighed in relief

" Hmph! that's what you always say! " Gia said

" What is it today? " Rowan asked

" It's Sunday, 8:30 AM, time for you to leave! " Gia answered in an infuriated tone

Rowan's eyes got wide just to realize that he was already late for his travel

" I'm late! Did you tidy my stuff already?? " Rowan asked hurriedly

" Yes, I already did! Now leave! "

Gia screamed

Rowan left the house running to the dock

" That nap was no good! "

Rowan arrived to the dock seeing that the boat left already but wasn't that far

" Wait! Wait! Wait! " Rowan shouted ans waved his hands hoping it'll stop

" Goddamnit! I thought I was supposed to be saving my energy for this! " Rowan said

" Coiling! " Coils of air formed around his feet as he got launched into the air and onto the boat

" Woah! That training did pay off! " Rowan said happily

The people in the boat were shocked and confused about what had just happend

" I should get some rest cause this is probably going to be a long ride! " Rowan said as he went to one of the boat's rooms he booked

............

" Attention Passengers, We have arrived at our destination, Gorgon City, Please take your belongings, And kindly exit towards the dock " The captain announced

" How long was I asleep? And I forgot to say goodbye to Mr.Hugh and Gia! I hope they'll find that note I left " Rowan wondered as he took his belongings and left the boat

" Alright! I'm in Gorgon City! I hope that this isn't another robbery! " Rowan hoped as he took out the poster he saw

" Let's see.. Beside the Gorgon Café? Alright! " Rowan said as he ran around asking for directions

" Is this it? the café looks so horrible " Rowan said in a disappointed tone

" Well I guess it's just about her-? " Rowan gets interrupted by a robbery

" Gimme yer' money, Lad, if ye' scream we'll take ye life " The robber said with a gun pointed on his head

" I spoke too soon " Rowan said as coils of air sorrounded his fists

" Kid's got Spirit Alchemy! Hit him with yer' dart! " One of the robbers ordered a marksman

"..Ferrum Festum! '' As a person came in slashing all the robbers

" Sorry, I was late! luckily you didn't get shot or else you would've been paralyzed for 2 days,

Anyways, the name's Ruse Marren, And you wanted to kill the Wandering King? " As the person introduced himself
