The knocking was a unnerving surprise to us.No one should know about this location, so who could it be. Maybe it could be the crusader's coming back to slaughter my offspring, it could be a very high possibility of that. Why now though it would be better if they would have done it back then?!, when I was still very young and weak. So that rules them out for right now, I always cover my tracks up when entering my home. Nobody from the Daragain knows of my life beyond the town. So who could it be at the door, the only one who knows of this place is the ones who live in it. Now I'm scared of who found this place, " flipp the table over pull the cloth over yourself!, Now!". The table got immediately flipped over, my wife and daughter cowered in fear as I put the cloth over them. I eased up to the front door hands shaking while approaching the door, I have too satu strong for my family. Even if is a God that these corrupt people, I'm willing to fight against that posses a threat to my way of life. Their was no peep hole on the front door, I didn't want to scare my loved ones any more than they already are. I pulled back the door with all my might to see if I could possibly scare the one behind it, the one who knocked on the door was. The last party member of Adamsin was the one who was knocking. I'm really surprised on how she knew where I lived at," Jim can I come in". If I don't let her in she will be very spectical of my actions. I moved out of the way of her, she took a look around the room. " so Jim How is the family doing!,". I became very angry within seconds of her question, " I'm sorry, I don't know what your talking about". She smirked at me while pointing at the dinner plates that was smashed on the floor. " unless you eat with the animals then there should be no reason for you to have more than one plate then." Oh snap I forgot to clean up before opening the door, I made a mistake that could cost the lives of my family." So are you going to introduce to them, it's kinda rude for you not too. I've known you for so long you think I'm going to eat you out, did you forget who I am they are after me as well dipshit!". My daughter's voice came out from under the cloth " language please!", I bit my lip trying no to laugh." Come on out know she is a good friend of mine, she won't cause any harm". The table started to make noise while being pushed over, the face that she made stunned me. She was smiling with joy seeing my family, especially my daughter. " Jim why didn't you tell me about the child", I already knew about the marriage. Hell I remember when you tried sneaking out of Daragain while holding on two rings". She enterd the kitchen where my family once hid away from her. She kneeled down in front of my daughter while holding her hand out, " hi, my name is Kylie. What is your name?". My daughter hid behind my wife back, the way my wife stood was if a Lion was standing up against a Hippo. This was the first time when my wife understands that she was under the pressure of being a Mother. The amount of tension between the both of them was unbelievably. " honey how can we trust this person she maybe a friend or your, she could be a foe to my people!". She has every right to think like that for year her kind has always be hunted by humans, seeing how this is her first interaction with another human besides me. Of course she is going to be very hesitant for this reason, I have to calm the situation down. I put my arms around the one that is a threat to my wife," look honey she is on our side, I've known her for a very long time.". She still looked very cautiously at us, hold I got an idea of I can tell her the truth of this threat. Then maybe she will ease up on her. " okay baby!, this person is just like you okay. She is wanted as well by the same people that want you died. Do you remember the person who caused your kind and my kind to go into chaos. She is to be part of that person's party, after his death. The leader of of this world has set a bounty for the rest of his party members heads, so please I'm asking you to rest up on this situation.!." My daughter slowly came from around my wife's back side, she noticed her rank. Every Adventurer once they come past silver or my rank we are required to wear a badge or some kind of dog tag to show our rank. " hey your necklace looks just like daddy's, your's is so much more prettier that daddy's", the one who is pressuring my wife quickly hide her rank away. " unlike your Daddy I'm not very proud of how I got my rank, I was there when your Daddy got his promotion too the rank he is at now". My wife quickly understood the situation that this woman was in, she quickly looked at me with anger. " how come you never mentioned her in the past?, is this a secret lover or something"!. Their was awkwardness in the kitchen, it was quickly killed with laughter. " trust me I'm way too old for him!, and besides I'm the one who's trained him in the way of a warrior. So sweetheart your fine I'm taking your man, Jim I'm here to talk to you about Marcus".
