5: Biggest fear

As I left Zarzak's flying castle, I went straight for the meeting place. The feeling of happiness, could probably be seen in the way I walked. But I didn't really care. A few demons waved just like before. In all the years I had been here, the countless battles I had seen to protect Zarzak's layer, it was nice to see it be recognised. I never understood why they would call i layers instead of continents, but why should I care. I'm not the head over here. As I was stuck in my thoughts, I didn't even realise that I had arrived in front of the empty fields. The meeting place was only a few hundred meters from here, and I could already feel the impatience in me. I roused the aura in my legs and core and pushed of the ground, sending me flying into the sky. My hair waving in the wind and coming to a stop for a fragment of a second. The whole world stopped and I felt like I was frozen in time. Then i started falling down hard and landed right on the spot. Sending gravels and making a tiny crater. I sat down on the spot and took out the blue and purple stone. Again all the thoughts and my anxieties started flowing out. 'Huh, is he late today'. I looked up at the moon, and it had already passed the time we were supposed to meet. I waited for an hour, then another and another. Yet the stone didn't glow. I waited and waited, minute after minute my feelings changed. Anger? Betrayal? Sadness? 'I honestly don't know anymore'. The minutes turned into hours, and the hours soon turned into days. And before I knew it, I had been here for a whole month… Yet again, he had not come. I had been left behind.

"Master…" the soothing voice of my maid could be heard from behind me. I turned around and my back made weird sounds. I was sore. Why was I sore again? I looked at my maid, who was looking worryingly at me. I looked past her and could see the once plane field levelled with dirt, destroyed as if a giant had walked through. '… right. I had gotten angry and couldn't control my anger'. I waved my maid over and realised that my hand was broken and mangled. Tsk, I clicked my tongue and aroused my aura, or i tried to. Nothing came out. 'Looks like I used it all'. Still I waved her over and she walked up to me slowly and hesitantly. She sat down beside me and that's when I realised that she was wearing a leather backpack. She took out some food, and i started to eat it. My body that had been starved craved for more and more. I stuffed the food in my body. Only after eating it all, did I get up. "Let's go" I said as I started to walk towards my house. 'No reason to keep being sad about it, something happened on the other side that made him unable to come. I know him too well, to doubt in him… something happened. Something happened too him… I gotta get back'.

"Send a message to Zarzak. I have to talk with him".
