Map run

The scream start at midnight, my mom woke me up,

Hurry, take just the necessary, and left now,-my mom yell me- came on came on. Take this map, listen to me, don’t give to anyone, don’t tell anyone that you have it, Follow the map, you will be save. I love you-. She kiss men.

I couldn’t do anything, i was paralyzed for the fear.

I took some winter clothes, some food and I left, I run.I could hear the cry of the people for a few miles.

I don’t know how much i run, but i run until sun rise, then i decided to rest, and eat. I opened the map,I didn’t understand why so important, “ I hope this whorth it” I thought. It didn't be a map, it was a drawing of a mountains, and man.

The next days I was in the forest, alone, lost hungry ,the only thing i thought was ¨One week ago Ii left my house, my live, and now I´m lost in the forest going i don´t know where´s

One night walking in a road, I found a guesthouse, I was hungry so I decided to enter to ask for some food. There was a big house, it have two floors, looks like nice place for ask for help. Nobody notice when i enter, there was music, a smell delicious.

A old lady come to me: Can i help you young boy? You need something?- look like very nice, her face have wrinkles, she had a blanket so i can’t see much of her.

You have some rest of food that you are going to throw, please, i don’t ate something 3 days ago?- I said with a sad voice.

The women looks me and said :I’m going to see if we have something, please take a sit, Do you something to drink?

I agree, and i found a place for wait alone,, next to 5 men with armor. I took the place and i wait.

I was taking a look of my map when i heard to said to wan man:

In last week we attacked 5 small town looking for a map or a paper, they are pathetics, try to fight, with this shits- everybody laughs.

I hide the map the more quickly as i can. Then appear a young women, she was beautiful, green eyes, a hair kiss by the fire, and small freke in her cheekbone. She had some ribs and a beer.

She sit with me.I drank my beer, it’s my first time that i drunk beer,my parents never allowed to me. It was bitter, but i drank it because i was thirsty.

Relax boy- she said- we have a room, if you want to spend te night, and you can work here, we need a new cook. I almost forgot it, I´m Elise.

I´m tom- reply- The room sound great, but i have a very long trip, thanks.

She sat with me, we were spoken all night.

I told my history, but i didn't talk about the map. She told me her story.

I born in tomello, is far from here- she told me- When i was 12 my father try to marry mee to a old man, i didn't want, so I escaped, and got here the same way like you, and Julie, the old lady offered me a job.

After dinner she show me my room, there was small and ungly, but it was better that slepet in the forest.

That night i couldn't sleep much, I was thinking in all this week, and that map matters, or no.

The next morning elise wake me up early, the sun just rise. I came into the house, and the old lady, was waiting for me, with a plate with bacon, and some milk.

Good morning sweety- she said- So had you thinking about my propose of work?

I didn't know what to say, maybe i could work for a week get some money and then left. But in fact i didn't want to go away, why run make my own life.

Yeah, it´s sound great, I don't have anywhere to go, Where suppose i have to do?- I answer

Great, Elise show him the house,-she looked to me- and I meet you in the kitchen when you finish.

Follow me- she said. She shown me house, it´s look nice. We walked for a stairs that connect with the second floor. There was small, there wasn't any way of two people stay in the same time.

In the end of the stair divided in two corridor, with rooms in boths sides, she opened one door.

Well you're going to share room with me, we have 2 employers room, and one is for Julie.

I entered in the room, there was a little bigger that where I spent the night, but it has 2 beds.

After that i went downstairs, to the kitchen, and there was Julie wait for me.

Come on- she yell- we don't have all day, the customers will be coming in a few hours, and you have much to learn.

She take me to the kitchen, it was big, there was 3 fire with pots, and a table with a pig, vegetables.

You know cook?- she ask

No much, sometimes i help my mother with the stew-

Ah, something is something, well for the moment follow my instructions- she told me - well let´s make a stew, with ham and pea.

It was easy, basically, because she told what to do, or she do it.

I was in the kitchen, preparing food, in 3 weeks, I had learnt all tricks,and, the old lady said that I was improved

in horses attack they, they start to kill everybody, I did the same, run for the guesthouse, take my staff, and save as many people I could, but is was late, they attack the guesthouse, 5 bodies with injuries in the neck was lied in the front of the house. Inside, a man with armor was waiting for dead, I ignore him.

I went upstairs as faster I could, then I saw the old lady bleeding, she was dying.

Get outta here- she whispered- runaway sweetheart there is nothing you ca do.

I took my backpack, when i was out, Elise apperied.

wa,what happened- said with a sad voice and crying.

Run- I answer.

We hidden in a forest, in the night, we didn’t know where we was running

Why run? - It asks; I smell fear- said another voice. Two differest voices come, we didn’t see anybody.

Both of us were immobile, we didn’t know what to do.

It comes near to us. That thing has a man form, but with white hair, goat legs, and a mask, and yes, have like a flame blue. In he hand had a bow, but I didn’t san arrows

why are you here?- that voice was a ghost, with a wolf form

-We are hiding, something terrible happened.-

The wolf get close for me- he’s lying, they come for us.

No- said the other.- they are in danger.

Who or what are you?- i said. I was scared, the wolf had bleed in the mouth, look like fresh.

I’m Kinwend- she said- And you?

I’m Tom, and she is Elise.- we stayed- and the wolf?

I’m Kinwend, never one without the other.- he answer, they loos between they,- come on, we protect you.

We follow them until a cave,

Sleep- she order- if there are problems i wake you.

I laid in the ground, and using my backpack like pillow.

It was noon, when i woke up, the sun was in top of the sky, Elise was slept, but she was crying, for the red of her eyes.

Kinwend com to me, with the map.

Where you get it?- the wolf in my back was coming near- Do you know what it is?. She gaves to me

I will help to get to there.

At this moment, Elise woke up.

Let´s go- i said

Where?- she ask

To visit Bardo- told the wolf.

At this moment Elise ´face change. Looks like she knows who is he.

Who is he?- I yell, in that moment, very body turned her looks to me.

Kinwed start- Much time ago Bard come to our planet, anybody know where is he from, he land in a small town, in Zamoza, in the east, and a enough power for conquest all he want, but everybody have to adore him, this was the deal, but when more big was him impure, more power, he want.

One day one which from Cost Bandlee, convince that he kill Bard, he got all his power.

He fails, in this try, and Bard kill him. Bardo had to go, but inside that man there is a treasure for him, and the first person who give the map to Bard will have 1 wish.

One day we were in a valley, with no trees, then we saw 5 soldiers, I recognized one of them, he was in in guesthouse.

The man were riding in a horse, and they came to us, moving faster.

Kinwed and the wolf look each other. The wolf despair.

Go back- she comad- I get this. The knight stop.

WHere your wolf?- laugh one of them- You have a reward, and I am going to get it. Catch her!

Three man attack, Kindew jumped and shot 3 arrows. One of them hit and he fall, the others two fail, she started running, when she was almost catch the wolf jump for a rider, and she shot another arrow, in a hole of his helmet.

The others soldiers turn and ran away, but Kindew hit in the target in the captain.

The ridder lost in the distance, Kindew look us:

Sorry, I can´t stay more with you, they will send more man for looking me- she saw off- Now go to tFeluia, in the east, to the Sabai, they will help you to get to him.Don't waste your whise.

Elise and me pass the next days without talking, we were thinking i our things. I thought in mum, and my friends, my town, and in 2 weeks i lose all i want. She was in silence.

What are you going to wise?- she asked one day.

I wish that this last month's don’t happen- i told- yeh come back in the time.

After go around the mountains we lose almost 1 month, but we didn’t climbs, we don’t know how to do it, and we didn't want to anybody knew about us; we arrived to Sabai, it was a beautiful land, There the forest are of big flowers, some of them was 15 feet tall. In the first town we see we stop, we had some money and we need food. Elise decided to rest, and i went to buy.

I listened that the Menchu was the people who live there, they are smaller than us, but they are still humans.

I bought a few cheese and bread, when a man cape and a hat assault me.

Heard me, Kindew sent to me- he whispered- The town that you are looking for is the west, five days walking for the road, be carefull. He disappear.

I went back with Elise.

-Let’s go-

Where?- she ask

To the west, one Kindew sent a man for tell me this.- I said.

And you trust him?-

No, I don’t but we don’t have other hint. We are going for the forest. In the road we’re to visible.

We start to walk to east, when more to the east there was more mountains, and less forest, but there was to the fourth day when we saw the town, It was between mountain, and only road for get into there was a small valley.

When we walked 5 hours, some horses come to us, when we we see was 3 man with 5 horses, and one of them was the man I saw in the town. The others were 2 menchus.

We were waiting for you 2 months, he is waiting-said the man- You can call me Lucas. He left but the others two offers us one horse, and we followed them,

When we arrive Lucas was in a house.

Come here you look tired and hungry-He open the door-You’re welcome, pass in, Tomorrow you are going to meet him.

Elise look at me, I thought that if they the map I was dead, and he will have the map, so we come.

In living room he prepare food, and there was wine.

Take all you want and after come up and sleep, you are my guest.

After 1 hour when we were eating we went to slept, the bed was the more comfortable bed ever, probably because I didn't sleep in 2 months.

That night feel me very good, and the next morning he woke up, with a breakfast, we ate, and then he asked if we can put a cape, we agreed.

The journey went for half day, we arrive to the shrine, and there was Bard, one big mass circle sit, then he come to me, her face look like a gold mask, with white holes.

The place wasn’t much things, just a few old column, but there was a little creature, they shine, and they were hidden of me, but they want to look to me,

Lucas did a reverence

Oh grand Bard, they are here-he said with a scared voice, he look to me- Do the same as me.

We did, he come to me, floating, he extend the hand. Immediately i put out the map, he took, and he go back.

Eh!-Iyell- Where you going, and want my reward-Bard stop turned to me and look at me- I want that this last 2 month didn’t happen.

He put his hand in a pokeck, and got a trumpet, he played, one a deep sound start, and then all was white.

And then I was in my home, with my mum. I felt odd, like all was a dream, but no, I knew that was real.

I went out to the forest, then I saw Kindew, she look at me, and left.
