Chapter 26 - Chapter 24: The Mentor

As Vilox takes both Savr and Victoria to his cave. Both Savr and Victoria talk.

"Who was that Troll that could talk?" Victoria asks

"That was Razar. A powerful Troll who was created from D'vron's personal sperm." Savr answers

in a similar fashion that Heidi did when she killed the knight when they first landed in Elda.

"Gross" Victoria says

"Anyway when I threw you that crossbow I didn't expect you to know how to use it. When did you learn to use that?" Savr asks

"In one episode of my show me and my friend Vanessa lied about our ages to join the army. We learned to shoot machine guns and all. I injured myself shooting the SA80."

"I have no idea what any of this is."

"Anyway I hurt myself using a powerful weapon so they gave me a crossbow."

"Ok at least you know how to use a crossbow." 

They finally reach Vilox's cave.

All on his walls are bottles of different colored liquids which meant they were different spells. And in the middle of the room is a book opened to the middle page.

"The prophecy has foretold of your coming for quite some time." Vilox says

"He's talking to you Savr." Victoria says trying to deflect.

"Victoria, you don't be shy. You know he's talking to you." Savr counters

"How do you know?" Victoria asks

Vilox then breaks their little spat by confirming

"I speak of the one not of this world."

"Dammit." Victoria says

Victoria walks up to the book where Vilox is standing

"You've been expecting me?" She asks

"Ever since the White Witch told me of your coming." Vilox answers

"Why am I here?" She asks

"Because you need me as your teacher." He answers

"Teacher? Even though I'm only seventeen I'm done with school." She says

"You need me to teach you to use your powers, child. All you do is jump randomly from one world to the next without any control of where you're going. I can teach you to control it." Vilox says

"Can you jump from world to world?" Victoria asks in a defensive tone

Vilox says nothing and he just disappears and in a split second reappears with a rifle in hand.

"Is that the gun thing you mentioned earlier Victoria?" Savr asks as this is his first time seeing a firearm.

"Yeah, A little older than the ones I was thinking about but yeah."

"Now will you be my pupil child?" Vilox asks

"No. No. No!" Victoria says as she begins to walk away.

"But I can teach you the magic in this book!" Vilox shouts

"Leave me alone!" She cries as she runs out of the cave leaving Savr and Vilox alone in the cave.

"So can I get the spells?" Savr asks

"You are not worthy." Vilox answers

"She just ran out on you. How is she worthy?" Savr asks

"She accepts her role. For it is written in the prophecy. Now go with her, the sun is rising." Vilox says

"Oh, it's nearly battle time" Savr says as he runs out.

In Wildowol the Sauldarian Army is ready for battle as Aego, Conall, Jeffers, Jhaan and Syndra stand before them.

"Today, we aren't Humans and Elves. Today we are brothers in arms. We will fight the Troll trash and take Mt. Heill!" Aego shouts as he tries to hype the army up. One of the soldiers shouts

"Where's Savr?!"

"Savr left out this morning with Victoria. I have no idea where he is." Aego confesses

"Well I'm not fighting without Savr." The soldier says

"I won't either." another soldier says

The army becomes unruly as they begin to lose control of the situation.

Just then Savr and Victoria run up to the front.

"Finally you have arrived." Jhaan snides

"Silence." Savr says as he jumps on his horse

Jeffers sees Victoria and tells her the good news be says 

"Victoria Beta was able to gain contact with another Starship last night." 

"That's great." Victoria says unenthusiastically

Jeffers picking up that something is wrong he asks

"What's the matter?"

"Nothing."

"Victoria I can tell something was wrong."

"It's nothing ok." Victoria says on the edge of tears

"It's Savr?"

"No! Anton just leave me alone!" She says, Then she says 

"I'm sorry it's this whole chosen one thing. I saw the prophecy last night and I can't. I can't do it." 

"Why not?"

"Because my friends, Vanessa and Reginald. I'll have to meet them again and they'll feel as if I betrayed them."

"I actually have no response to that." Jeffer says

"Of course you don't. I want to be the chosen one. Anton I really do, but confronting them is just too much for me."

"There your friends. They'd forgive you if you apologized." Jeffers says

"But what if they don't forgive me?" Victoria says

"They will if you apologize to them the way you're talking now." Jeffers says

"You really think so?" She asks as she wipes tears off her face.

"I know so." Jeffers says

Victoria whipes her face completely and says

"Thanks, Anton."

"You're welcome." Jeffers replies

Victoria leans over and hugs Jeffers Savr, seeing this got jealous.

"Good for you Captain!" He yells so he can embarrass Jeffers

The entire army begins cheering for both Jeffers and Victoria to kiss

Savr joins in saying

"Kiss! Do it."

Victoria got angry and says

"Grow up."

"Anyhow we have an assault to begin formation of men to Mt. Heill!" Savr yells

On Mt. Heill D'vron looks over his magic cauldron and sees the army marching towards Mt. Heill.

"Good. Good. Prepare the Trolls." D'vron says

He then leaves the room and Heidi continues to see down her restraints
