Chapter 2 - 1

This is where Taraji's story begins. It was a rainy day....their were some travelers between the mountains walking for miles. They have been looking for a shelter for a hour or 2. They finally found a cave. They ran in the cave and started on making fire to warm themselves up. One of them took a stick and light it up. He walked around with the stick. He walked deeper and deeper into the cave. He saw a statue... 'Who are you' he asked before wiping the dust of the name tag. 'Taraji . The Guardian of the world l' he read. He heard a 'crack' coming from the statue. He looked up and the statue started to crack more and more. Few seconds later a young girl fell out of the statue and he caught her in his arms. The girl was unconscious but her beauty was breath taking. He ran back to his companion with her in his arms. "Who is she?" his friend asked him. 'I-i don' know' i anwserd him. We looked at her not having any idea who she is and why she was in the stone. 'All i know is her name. There was a name tag on the stone from where she fell out.' i told him 'What did it say?' he asked curiously. 'Taraji the Guardian of the world. It said' i told him. He wrapped her in his blanket so she won't get cold. I lied her on my sleeping bag that was on the ground preperd by my friend.

My friend Espen took a map out of his bag and lied it down the ground looking at it. 'What are you looking for?' I asked him. 'Im looking for the fastest way to our house Ivan.' Espen told me focused on the map. I took some food out of my bag and shared the food with Espen. When he found a faster way to our home we agreed that we will go in the moring when the rain will calm down. We both went to sleep after some time. In the morning we got up and looked at Taraji but she didn't wake up yet. We talked who would carry her and we have decided to take turns on carrying her. Espen picked her up first so he can carry her first. I have packed us and picked our bags. Whe we made sure we have everything we went out of the cave and began made our wqay to our house. We took turns on holding her every few hours. We walked a few days when we got there. Our home was located close to the edge of the mountains, and there were few people near there because their lives there were too boring. We live in a small cabin. When we walked in Espen lied her gently on the couch wrapping her in more blankets. Before we took turns to shower. After we were done with showering and changing into warm clothes we began making food. After some time we heard a groan. We stopped working and went to her. When we walked in she was half sitting on the couch looking confused around. I helped her get comfortable as she tried to wake herself up. 'Where am i? What happend?' She asks her voice raspy and low. My heart broke for her, so I sat beside her. 'Its okay. You just fell out of the statues,' I tell her smiling softly. 'The war..I NEED TO HELP THEM!' She got up but fell right back on the couch. 'What war?' Asked espen. 'What do you mean what war?? It's right outside!' She said 'But there is no war. The last war was 1235 years ago.' I told her. She looked at me in shock. 'Where is my husband?!' She asked half screaming when she got up. Me and Espen placed her on the couch gently again. 'Dear....who was your husband?' I asked in a gentle voice. 'The king of Velancia.' She told us. We looked at each other and shared a sad look before Espen spoke up. '...he died in the war...in the year of1235...the last war. She looked at him in disbelief. We could see that she is holding back her tears so i just hugged her. She flinched but she hugged me back and started to cry on my shoulder. We both feel bad for her...She lost her husband...and her family members...i mean she lived many many years ago...I thought to myself.
