It happened do quickly . Alex had started walking away so I followed her then we were running and then we were fighting those .. things ( well Alex did most of the fighting ) and then we jumped through a portal into a city by the looks of it.
Alex grabbed my hand and started walking deeper into the city , it was beautiful there were flowers blooming on window sills and restaurants with the smell of various foods floating out of the doors .
Children would come up to Alex and hug her or give her flowers she would hug them back or thank them, adults would stop and bow to which she waved a dismissive hand at. It was like she was royalty .
Her hood was down so I could see her face and she was beautiful . She had almond brown skin , voluminous wild curly-bushy hair and she had pretty brown eyes ( one shade darker than amber) that were flecked with a deep shade of purple .
We came to a stop at a huge castle that looked out of place . Alex nodded at one of the guards at the gate and walked into the court yard that was filled with flowers and had the greenest grass i had ever seen . There was a boy who was lying in the grass . We walked to him .
"Andy this is Tyler I found him in the mortal realm please get him settled while I clean up thank you " she said turning around and leaving before the boy could say anything
He let out a tired sigh then said, "Andrew migle-silvefire"
"Tyler feall" I said
"So you're from the mortal realm " he said leading me toward the castle
"Yeah?" I said in an unsure voice . He nodded
We walked through huge corridors and then we made it to a room written medbay at the top , Andrew ushered me into the room and told me to sit on kne of the beds .
Soon a nurse came in and took a sample of my blood then said that they would have the results ready by tomorrow, what results , I have no idea . I was still kinda dazed from jumping through the portal . I jumped through an actual portal.
Andrew thanked the nurse and lead me to a large room .
"You can stay here for the night "
"Really " I asked even my room at the mansion wasn't this big .
"Yeah sure " he said "now let me give you a tour of the castle "
We left the room and started walking from room to room
"This is the ball room ,that hallway leads to the kitchen and thats the throne room " he said whilst walking then we reached a set of stairs
" thats the servants tower " he said point at another staircase then we walked up the one that was on the opposite " thats the library shall we go in "
There was a sign that said we will not be back in five . Andrew opened the door anyway . The library was huge , it had tall bookshelves with sliding ladders and thousands of books. There were two girls sitting behind the only table in the whole library. I recognised one it was Alex.
"You've already met my sister Alexandra , this" he said point at the girl sitting next to Alex "is Natalie melloworth-silverfire ,Alexandra's best friend and my other sister "
Natalie was almost as beautiful as her best friend . Natalie's baishe skin suggested that one of her parents had been black , she had honey brown eyes which had green flecks ,her hair was curly without being wild and the colour of wet sand .
"Didn't you read the sign " Natalie said looking up from the book she was reading
"Oh I don't think they can read Natalie " Alex said not looking up from her book
Ignoring the comment Andrew said " mother said that you have to be ready for the measurements for the dresses tomorrow "
"Mater?" Natalie said to Alex in a confused voice
"He means her majesty " Alex said finally looking up from her book and taking her glasses off
"Unfortunately we won't be able to make it " Natalie said
"And why is that "
" we have work to do " Alex said putting her glasses back on " now get out"
"Fine , I'll just tell her you two said no "
"Tell her to not bring the tailor , tell her to give the money to the orphanage in bencove " Natalie said thoughtfully
"Yeah, half of the place burnt down " said Alex said in a sorrow filled voice
"fine okay whatever " Andrew said then turned to me " come on let me show you the rest of the castle "
