Chapter 6

Happy reading!

"You are up already?" Uncle Jack asked Darrell with a surprised look on his face. He was coming down the stairs.

"Good morning uncle Jack," Darrell greeted.

"Yes good morning Darrell, you woke up quite early today," Jack asked as he walks towards the living room.

"Yea' I don't want to be late on my first day," Darrell said in front of the mirror he was clad in a red long sleeve shirt and a blue jean.

"I can see how happy you're my boy," Jack said and walks to Darrell.

"I'm more than happy uncle Jack,"

Darrell said as he brushed his brown curly hair.

Then he turn around and faces Jack.

"Thanks for giving me this chance,"

Darrell said and embraced Jack.

"It's nothing really as long as as you come back safe to me then it's not a problem," Jack said and breaks the hug but he still held Darrell on his shoulder.

"Be careful out there ok," Jack adds with a smile.

"Ok uncle Jack," Darrell replied with a nod.

"Ok now..you can go," Jack said and released his grip from Darrell's shoulder.

Darrell hurries up and heads to the door.

"Good bye uncle Jack," Darrell said and waved at jack

"Take care my boy and good luck,"

Jack replied and waves back at him.

...

Darrell goes down to the town, he was now happy cause he could see the trees and buildings more near than just viewing them from the balcony, he recognized a big tower that he saw the day he came to Monaserus he remembers how rainy the night was when;

(Flash back)

"Hey guys, look it's douchebag,"

A teenage boy of nineteen years (Same age with Darrell) said to two other guys immediately they spotted Darrell.

"You guys should leave me alone,"

Darrell said trying to avoid them.

"Unless what?" The second guy asks dragging Darrell's shirt.

Darrell doesn't respond.

"Oh yeah, I thought so, you've got no answer cause you are just alone with no...nobody to fight for you.." the first boy replied mockingly and laughed.

"Hahaha," Laughs the other boys wickedly.

The first boy pushes Darrell and he falls down, then they all gathered around him and starts beating him roughly.

All of a sudden, Jack appeared out of nowhere and he just moved his hands (magic) and immediately the boys that were beating up Darrell fell down and starts screaming in pain, Jack dropped his hands and out of fear the boys stood up and ran away.

Jack walks to where Darrell was lying down.

"Are you okay?" Jack asked Darrell softly.

Darrell coughs and spits out blood, he looked really injured with bruises all over his face.

"Don't worry you will be safe I am here," Jack said and helped him to his feet, took care of his wound and then they teleported to Monaserus, they boarded a carriage, Darrell leans on the carriage and spotted the big tower, the cold was much so he took a blanket from Jack till they got to Jack's house.

(End of Flash back).

"Good morning sir," A little boy who was passing by greeted Darrell and waking him out of this thoughts.

"Good morning' please, could you give me directions to the baker's shop," Darrell asked the little boy.

"Yes sir, it's close to the Ares spring, you just move to your left, you will see a big oak tree, then you should take the right path, you will see a bunch of more trees, just go forward towards a spring close to it, is the baker's shop," the boy replied moving his hands to different directions.

"Thank you very much," Darrell replied.

Darrell turned around and walked towards the direction the boy gave to him and soon he reaches Ares spring, from afar the whole place looked deserted but as he got close, he noticed how wide the place is with different building and people and then he noticed the shop, it had a sign on top that looked like a big dummy bread and a write up; 'Thompson's the only, the best'.

"Good morning sir," Greeted Darrell at the sight of Mr. Thompson. Thompson was doing some work in his baking shop.

"Oh my!, I am happy you've made it, I hope it didn't take you long to get to this place," Mr. Thompson replied and stopped what he was doing.

"No sir, I'm really happy to be here," Darrell replied happily.

"I'm sure you are, come on let me show you around," Thompson said and they both walked inside the building.

"You have quite a nice place sir" Darrell replied looking around the baking shop.

"Thank you Darrell, the place is quite lacking of staff and I need someone who will be willing to serve the people of Monaserus by giving bread to everyone's doorsteps, so tell me, are you up to the task," Mr. Thompson said as he taps Darrell on his shoulder.

"Yes I am sir," Darrell replied briskly and looked at Mr. Thompson.

"That's very good you can start right away," Thompson said and walked towards a counter.

"That's not a problem sir, I will be glad to do that, it will also help me to get to know everyone in Monaserus," Darrell replied with a smile.

"That's very funny Darrell, cause you might even get bored at the sight of just one person" Thompson said and laughed.

"Really! But I have met you and I don't seem to be bored," Darrell replied excitedly.

"Which means you are really the one I need for the job, here you go," Thompson said as he picks up some bags from the counter and turns to Darrell.

Mr. Thompson gives Darrell a bag and throws another one to Darrell, the bag was a bit heavy for Darrell to catch, Darrell wasn't able to catch all of the bag and then he falls down, he laughs like nothing happened and gets up.

"Take care Darrell and be careful, I hope you bring in good sales," Mr. Thompson said.

"Thanks Mr. Thompson, I will give it a good shot.." Darrell replied while carrying the goods.

"Good luck Darrell," Mr. Thompson said and waved at Darrell.

Darrell waved back and left the building and went into the town.
