Chapter 19

“Okay Lefty, we’re here now…” Cat cooed as she guided an exhausted Prophet into the village… Lefty only mumbled wearily as she stumbled into view… “*Pant* Okay, so *Huff* let’s see who we need to find...” Lefty mumbled tiredly as her eyes started glowing a bright blue… Cat was unsure if Lefty should strain herself anymore than what she had already done, but considering the circumstances she decided to keep quiet for now…

Lefty breathed as she tried to clear her mind and focus… (Okay Lefty, you need to focus… If you don’t find whoever can help us here the shadows will find us soon… But don’t think of that! You don’t care about it; you need to save your strength so you don’t pass out again…) Lefty chanted to herself as an image focused into sight… It looked like a set of lines at the beginning, but quickly filled in with colors until Lefty could make out the details of buildings… (Yes… Just... A… Little more….) Lefty cheerfully smiled as the images of buildings glowed a bright blue in front of her face… The light started to swivel and dance in front of her as they began to gather closer and closer together around a certain building… (Yes! That’s the building! Just gotta hang on…) Lefty winced as a dull dizziness mixed with pain started to shoot up to her spine…

To everyone around Lefty, she looked as still as a statue… Cat was unsure of what exactly Lefty was doing, but for the moment she seemed to be peacefully calm so Cat didn’t wish to disturb her… Princess stared in confusion as she started to absent mindedly swing her big axe in the dirt… “Um, hello? Aren’t we supposed to be finding shelter so those stupid shadows don’t hurt us?!” Princess grumbled as she crossed her arms and looked at the frozen Lefty…

A sudden gasp came from Lefty as her eyes opened revealing that they were still glowing bright blue… Cat twitched in surprise from the sudden movement coming from Lefty… Lefty’s tail twitched in an unnatural way as it swayed upwards and curled tight like it was squeezing something…

The lights started to move slower and slower as they glowed brightly around a small building in front of Lefty… Lefty winced, (Crud! The pain is becoming too much! I know where, but who?! I just… Need… A name….) Lefty groaned as the pain seemed to slither up to her head like a snake…

Cat didn’t need to be told what would happen next, as she quickly dropped what she was carrying and dashed towards Lefty who stumbled onto the ground and groaned quietly… “Goodness!!! I didn’t think it would hurt her so much!” Shila exclaimed in shock as she quickly helped Cat pull Lefty back up…

Lefty was barely conscious as she barely managed to make one word come out of her mouth, “L.. L.. Lilac…” Lefty groaned as her strength faded and fell back on Shila’s and Cat’s arms… Space slid his sword back out of his sheath, “What the heck does that mean?! That’s a flower! Not a house, let alone a person!” Space whined as he looked around the area still clutching his sword closely…

Stripes rubbed his chin as he looked around at the houses… “Uhh… It could be the name of a street or maybe even a type of building we need to look for…” Stripes mumbled as he studied the houses… Space rolled his eyes, “Great… Just what we need… Another riddle…” Space growled softly as he walked over to Cat and Shila worried…

“So, do you think she’ll be okay?” Space asked his sister Cat, as he examined the unconscious Prophet… A small moan was heard coming from Lefty as her tail twitched a little before stopping again… That seemed to answer Space’s question, as he immediately went quiet… Cat nearly giggled at her older brother Space, “She’s stronger than she looks, and I don’t think she appreciated that…” Cat grinned as she shifted the way she was holding Lefty, so she would be able to prop her up better…

“Right, but that still doesn’t help the fact that we still don’t know where we are supposed to stay…” Stripes muttered as his expression turned serious… The rest of the gang began to ponder exactly what Lefty had meant by ‘Lilac’ as they began to comment about it.

“Uh hey guys, perhaps it’s - !” Princess tried to interrupt as she ran over to the gang... “It could be a specific type of bark that means lilac here..” Stripes grumbled as he looked around at the buildings… “If it was that, wouldn’t it be more obvious Stripes?” Space snorted as he used his sword to draw in the dirt… “It has to be the name of a street… Does anyone know what road we’re on?” Space asked as he started to draw a map on the ground…

Princess twitched her tail angrily and stomped off towards a house in front of the gang, “GUYS?! I think she was referring to the flowers!” Princess yelled angrily as she pointed to the house’s Lilac flowers… The gang just stood staring at Princess dumbfounded, and then quickly rushed over to the house and banged on the door…

“Alright! I’m coming!” A voice hollered as the sound of footsteps running could be heard… The door clicked and then swiftly opened up… A tall, slender man stood in front of the doorway holding a book while looking at the gang…

“Oh my… Is that young lass alright?” The man gasped as he dropped the book he was holding and ran towards Lefty…

Ya, sorry about it being short... I couldn't think of how else to write it... :P
