Dark Forest
"Wake up people, we have to keep moving" Kiara screams in the cave causing her voice to echo waking everyone up.
"Why, can't we not just wait a little longer?" Kyra grumbles and Wynstar growls lowly angry she has been robbed of her sleep and the Prince jerks in fear.
"Still trying to get used to this tiger" Eros said now wide awake with fear written in his voice because of Wynstar's growl.
"Don't worry you will get used to it, it's just a matter of time, now get up all of you unless you want me to drench you with water" Kiara said standing at akimbo and Eros jerked up in fear that Kiara was serious.
"Ahhh my back aches" Eros grimaced in pain.
"You complain a lot" Kyra said getting up.
"It's not my fault I'm not used to sleeping like this" he said pointing at the ground of the cave "and did I use your mouth to complain" he asked sarcastically and Kiara burst out laughing.
"No but you should learn not to complain too much" Kyra said not offended with his sarcastic words "afterall we did not force you to come with us and by the way we don't sleep on grounds of caves back at home it's our first time and we still aren't complaining" she ended her statement packing the pillows into the space bag.
"Don't forget to ease yourselves, we don't want to stop for someone to ease their self" Kiara warned.
She's always ahead of everyone.
"My prince did you hear her or your royal testicles can't urinate anywhere apart from the Imperial palace, huh??" Kyra asked sarcastically putting on an innocent look and Eros became speechless opening and closing his mouth like a dying tilapia fish and Kiara burst out laughing.
"What an amazing comeback, I thought you didn't even find his statement offensive" Kiara said still laughing.
"I didn't find it offensive, I was just asking honestly because he had been complaining nonstop" Kyra spat again blinking her long thick black eyelashes rapidly with a small hidden smile on her face.
"You you" the Prince said pointing at Kyra like a spoilt little kid "you are very insulting" and Kyra burst out laughing and Kiara didn't notice there was a large smile on her face just from seeing Kyra laugh.
"You sound like a slowly little brat, that's cute, haha" she said now rolling on the floor because of Eros behavior.
She later composed herself after about thirty seconds then she stood up dusting her cloth. "What is making you smile like a kid who has been given candy" Kyra asked Kiara tilting her head to the side causing her long wavy red hair to fall to her side a bit.
"It's you" Kiara said smiling and she didn't notice the tear rolling down here cheeks.
"Huh?" Kyra grimaced in confusion.
"You are laughing for the first time in a long time, I'm so happy" Kiara said and ran to her sister enclosing her in a tight hug and Kyra blushed.
"Wow I made the grumpy girl laugh" Eros said with a chuckle.
"What did you just call me?" Kyra asked pulling away from the hug with a frown on her face while Kiara was giggling hard.
The girl is always giggling.
"Ever since I met you, you have been grumpy" Eros shrugged with a smirk playing on his lips.
"No I haven't" Kyra said annoyed.
"Yes you have" Eros said in a sing song voice.
Kyra got angry and chased him all over the cave. He ran outside the cave and she kept on chasing him till she caught him while Kiara was laughing hard.
"Please, please, spare me" he screamed begging as she was holding his shirt like someone who was caught stealing.
"Oh how special I am, to have the Imperial Prince beg at my feet" she smiled wickedly and gave out a little evil laugh just for drama sake.
"Please" he looked at her with puppy dog eyes and she ignored him bending his arm to the upper part of his back causing it to make a loud cracking noise and the Prince to scream in horror.
Kiara was already at their side laughing hard.
"I just don't want to beat a girl if not I would have broken all your bones to pieces" Eros whined like a child.
"You sound like a child" Kiara giggled.
"I would like to watch you try" Kyra said with a challenging smirk on her face.
"Come__" Eros was about to say something when he was interrupted by Kiara.
"It's ok with your tantrums, let's get going, time waits for no man!" Kiara exclaimed clapping her hands together.
"I hope Kyra is back for good" Kiara thought and smiled inwardly.
They all went to hidden corners to ease themselves and afterwards they climbed their horses and continued their journey.
They were moving for hours till they nearly reached the Dark Forest and saw an old man.
"That place is forbidden, don't go there" he screamed from afar with a croaky voice afraid to come closer because of the tiger.
"Why?" Eros screamed after the old man.
"It has scary rumors and histories and people don't go in there it's like an evil forest and beware of crazy people that just want to take your money or kill you, and when you go in you can't come out easily only a wise person can" the old man screamed back.
"When you see the star" the old man screamed back at them again
"Thank you for the information we appreciate, really" Kyra screamed back at the old man and he retreated "let's go in" Kyra commanded and they all entered the Dark Forest.
"I wonder what the old man is talking about" Kiara said.
"The gods are trying to test us remember?, So we should be prepared for anything" Eros said and they nodded.
"First time you are saying something reasonable, you are not so bad afterall" Kyra said with a smirk playing on her lips.
"What?" Eros gasped.
"Everyone be on the look out, never let your guard down" Kyra said ignoring the Prince.
They couldn't see inside the forest apart from tall thick trees and long climbing plants acting as a curtain to the Dark Forest. It isn't dark as they thought it would be. It has the normal illumination of a forest. And truly immediately they got in and turned back they couldn't locate where they came in from. Creepy!
"A bit creepy, but beautiful" Kiara said out loud.
