《Eternal Dream》Chapter 5 - Encounter With The Red Arrow
Advertisement
When I first opened my eyes, my vision was blurry. My head was spinning as I can hardly get up to see what was going on. The land was filled with green trees all around with a scent of blood. I let out a scream as I tried to move my body away only to feel another soft, slender hand near me.
To my relief, it was my friend Aurora who was by my side, still unconscious. I started to shake her gently from her slumber only to be hit in the face.
Aurora quickly got up with a frown, "I was dreaming of food until you woke me!"
I sighed and frowned, "This is no time to be sleeping and dreaming of such things!"
Then Aurora started at me with shock, pointing at me and trying to speak but no words can out. Slowly, she spoke, "Alicia... Your hair is white and your eyes are as red as Lucifer's!"
"You must be joking." I said, but starting to believe her a bit. I looked around and spot a lake that was a couple feet away from us.
I stood up, wobbled a bit, but managed to get on my feet to walk towards the lake and scan my reflection. My hands covered my face in shock as what Aurora said was true.
"This... Isn't happening..." It can't be, can it? I let out a screech as if my life was ending.
Aurora came by my side and patted my shoulder. "No worries. You're one of those 'Twilight' vampires that can't die in the sun. Ku ku ku ku."
I growled, ready to kill my friend for even relating me to that until I froze in fear. Five, green shaped humanoids with sharp teeth were staring at us. Their clothes were tattered and their body were masculine. Aurora turned too with her eyes widen in shock.

The thing that actually scared us, were their weapons which consisted of clubs, axes, and wooden shields. The biggest one in the middle puffed out his chest, "Gobble, gobble, wish has sone nice little girlish for our pleasish boyz."
The other four goblins also had lustful eyes at us. Aurora hid behind me and whispered into my ears, "I have a plan. Alicia, use your famous sword skills while I run."
I turned and gave her a dumbfounded expression, "Do you see me wielding a sword? And when will you be back?"
"Get a stick. Sticks solve everything. Poke them in the eye. And I'll come back, maybe ten years to your funeral."
The goblins started to laugh as they started to creep over us.
Out of nowhere, a knight in shining armor jumped between us. His blond hair flowing as his hazel eyes glared, "You shall not harm my princess."
Aurora looked around, "Who's he talking to? You know what," she yelled out to him, "THAT'S RIGHT. I'MA PRINCESS. PRINCESS OF THE POOR."
I looked at her.
She shrugged, "What? I like living."
The goblins were dumbfounded by their new foe. I, on the other hand, stared at his armor with a sinister expression, "Aurora, let's steal is armor. Ku ku ku ku."
Aurora gave me a poker face then frowned. "How dare you. Why would you steal his armor? Like just his armor? We need to steal his sword too."
So there went out plan. As the knight was attacking the beast, one of them crawled behind us and hurled his ax at us.
Aurora screamed and threw a rock at it, "HEY. PRINCESS IN DANGER. THIS IS SO NOT RIGHT. I DEMAND EXPLANATIONS NOW!"
The sword rang as it slammed against the ax. The knight forced the beast to lose balance as he slashed it in symmetrical. He then turned to us with a wink at Aurora as he kissed her hand.

Aurora gave a poker face as she nodded slowly, "Princess of the poor is also confused."
"RAH!"
He turned as another attacked with a killer instinct. The knight swung his blade at him, and before he knew it, his stomach gushed out in blood as he ripped the sword out.
The rest of the goblins froze as this time, they were fearful his swordsmanship.
"Leetz retreatezz ands has our revenged blonde fuu." the goblin leader grumbled.
They started to make their escape, but before they could take another step, they low voice called out to them. "Think you can run away from me? You better think again. Haha." the knight laughed.
The aura around him started to emit in gold as he charged up with his sword in hand. With one swing, the four goblins' head rolled on the floor.
The blond knight unsheathed his sword into his scabbard and walked over to us with a smile as he took Aurora's hand and helped her out. He bowed as he introduced himself, "My name is James Black son and I am at your service, my lady."
Aurora didn't utter a word. Instead she whispered to me, "I'm too scared. He has a sword. And you saw what he did to those things. We're gonna die. And I haven't tasted the pastries in France yet!"
I jumped in front and spoke for her, "You may address me as Alicia and my friend over here Aurora. We are grateful for your help, sir knight."
Sir James stood up and puffed out his chest, full of confidence, "Fear not as I shall defend you ladies with my life!"
Aurora mumbled, "Before you kill us and take out lives."
Despite Aurora's suspicion, the man looked very kind with his smile. With my eyes on his armor and sword, we gave a sly smile. Thus, our journey in another world begins!

The Granddaughter of Time
Teresa Hargrove was okay with giving up. She knew the Earth was doomed and there was nothing to be done about it. What she was not okay with was the Future, an enigmatic woman nearly fanatical in her devotion to making a difference, dragging her along — seemingly, to prove her wrong. It turns out though that the Future is very hard to understand. This story contains heavy themes, including mental illness, existential crisis and death. However, I still tried to eventually convey a message of hope. Several mythical and metaphorical beings in the shape of humans will appear in most chapters. However, they are not meant to be of a specific ethnicity or social background and are instead perceived differently by people around them. For your reading pleasure, feel free to imagine them any way you’d like, even if your imagination contradicts descriptions from the story. Enjoy!~
