He looks like he's just as old as I am, and got the same figure of a runner, lanky and elegant. He's quite a charm with his good looks.
"Looking at a person that long is illegal, is it not?" His voice is deep and crisp, but not deep enough to be a man. I pulled away from his gaze and try to sit up, but I was immediately pulled down by an intense head ache.
Well this quite embarrassing.
He walked to another spot, inches from his original position, drying himself perhaps. I got my hands on my face, palms spreading, enough to hide me from embarrassment. "Where did you come from?" He asked. I shook my head and shrugged a little bit. Removing my hands on my face then resting it on my knees. I look around, looking for a sign of the big rock or a cave I came from, but I found none.
What lies on the ocean are just a vast amount of water and a huge rock shaped like a skull. I didn't came from that, did I?
I look at the boy again. "Where am I?" The boy straighten up and stood, facing the waters he took out a golden telescope from his belt and begun looking at it from the ocean, to the woods and ahead.
"We are not far from the borders of the Queen, but it will not be nighttime until the Sorcerer and Hook would start their patrol. So we may need to hurry out of here." He said, but I honestly didn't understand anything. "Why are you in the water at these hours? You know that those nasty sirens would be luring you in until you drown to death." I couldn't believe he said that all in one huff. I couldn't understand what his blubbering about. He surely doesn't look like a crazy man, but what he said weird-ed me out. But one thing is for sure, I need to get back. The director probably had already ushered the kids inside, and finding me nowhere... she'll probably freak out.
I was about to open my mouth to ask for directions when a trumpet was blown not far away. The boy's eyes widened. He cursed in a language I couldn't understand and approached me fast. He wrap his hands on my wrist tightly. "Hey!" I protested. But he continued and hauled me up, not minding my protest.
"Look, I do not know if you're from those towns nearby or not, but one thing is for sure, the sorceress will kill you if she finds out that you are not from here." Another protest threatens to escape my mouth when a gallop of horses caught my attention, the sound of the howling scared me.
I look at the him and we started to run. Men in horses are after us.
Out of breath, we settled behind the trunk of a tree. He pressed his finger on his mouth signalling for me to be quite .
A horse stops near our direction, it had probably spotted us. Then followed by the barking of a hound.
Come here, follow the broken light. Come to the Willow Tree.
Stunned by the voice, I look around, searching for it. Who is she? Who are you? I thought but no one answered.
The boy pulled me away from my thoughts and started running, faster and faster until I couldn't feel the ground on my feet. I look down, only to realize that we're floating.
