Chereads / The Kingdom Witch / Chapter 7 - The Witch gets her Egg

Chapter 7 - The Witch gets her Egg

the witch saw her crows sight and nods to herself..she hurries silently through the woods towards the main camp.

the witch noticed Luke and Moire leaving as she hid in a treeline nearby. She saw this as her opportunity to fetch her next needed item...The Dragon's egg.

the witch steps into the camp and first goes into Luke's tent...she rummaged through his belongings.. completely wreaking the place...she leaves it a mess and then goes to moires tent. As she filed through her belongings, she spots a small chest. With a lime green filled vial..she pots the liquid on the chest lock. The ooze eats the metal away and the witch opens the wooden box...she sees her prize

"... Ahh there you are...yes... you're coming with me..."

She tucks the egg into her voluminous robes and leaves the tents...heading towards the castle.

Moire..once in cheerful spirits..had her happy face change. She freezes, seeing the state of her own tent and Luke's tent and she pulls out her knife- irritated

"what the fuck happened here-?"

Luke walks through seeing the tents going straight towards them out of curiosity,

" We didn't leave them like this.."

He walks into his tent just seeing it's a mess before turning to go into mois looking around to see an acid burned chest sitting there,

".. moi?..."

he turns back to look at her.

"..what was in a wood box?"

Moire turns and She freezes, seeing the wooden box opened and she gasps- white as a ghost as she falls to her knees ...

" I need that back. ASAP. " she clenched her fists together as she tried to keep herself composed.

"..Moi, was it the egg?" he looks down at her now a bit worried.

"..yes. It was..."she would place a hand ontop of Civilia's head as she exhaled sharply..

" i dont know how anyone else knew I had it."

he goes a bit white looking at moi,

"Who has our kid? Who would want to take it?"

Luke, you're asking me questions I don't know the answer to, and it's stressing me out- she snaps at him a bit, before sighing and apologizing quickly

"I'm going to look for it..." he disappears into his tent before coming out with something tucking it in his waistband behind him.
