Return to Bhrathair

I stood in front of the portal waiting for Jack impatiently. "Oberon's going to be royally pissed if I'm much later." I muttered under my breath beginning to pace. "Leave it to a water element to slack off."

Jack was standing behind ceres right as she uttered that last phrase. "I didnt think psychic elementals were to be so impatient and bratty." as he said that he flicked ceres on the back of the head playful as he passed her.

"Of course I'm impatient! You said you'd be here in ten minutes, it's been more like half an hour!" I said sticking my tongue out childishly. "Now I have a few.... guidelines to tell you. If you get the opportunity to meet Oberon or the Grand Master than you will only speak when spoken to, got it? And do not start a fight. I can guarantee that you will lose."

"ya ya ya ya" as jack started playing with water particles out of boredem.

I stepped through the portal dragging him along with me. I was greeted by a tall pale man with an icey stare. "Hello Oberon." I smiled pleasantly and bowed gracefully. "Afternoon Ceres. Who is this that you've brought?" He asked looking over Jack. His eyes stopped at the necklace and he looked up sharply at me. "I see... then he does not concern me."

Jack was a little bit worried about the look that this oberon guy was giving him, but that feeling went away. Becaue he had a lot on his mind. Jack just kept silent.

I sighed in relief and asked, "Can I please show him around before the ceremony?" Oberon looked at Jack again and nodded. "Yes you may. However keep him away from Fornax. No outsiders." I snorted and said, "No shit." Before dragging Jack away. "This is good. He recognized and ignored you. That means you definitely won't be today's sacrifice." I smiled brightly.

"Thats awesome but why are you dragging me i can walk you know"

"You weren't walking fast eno- GORAN!" Suddenly I cut off letting go and running off ahead towards a figure. It was a man leaning against a brick wall grinning from ear to ear. He was a little taller than me with similar features, dark hair, purple eyes and the same tattoo on his back. "So our brat has finally returned has she?" He laughed and grabbed me into a bear hug. "I told you I would soon. How's the old man doing? He getting any better? Oh, and this is my friend Jack." I said pointing at Jack through the hug. "Jack, this is Goran my brother."

Jack fell on back and hit his head on the ground..."ouch damn it" jack growled. He got and and introduced himself " Pleasure to make your acquaintance" he waited for ceres to get through with her hug to give the Goran a handshake.

Goran let me go and shook Jack's hand with a firm grip. "Welcome Jack. May Nartik bless your path in this life."

Jack smiled and replied "thank you...you too"

"Aye Goran. Did they catch the Snälrech?" I asked him in a hushed voice. He nodded grimly and glanced at Jack saying, "Yes, which means we won't be needing the Pellegrin."

Jack smile turned into a look of confusion as there were talking about something discretely. He shrugged his shoulders and proceeded to play with the water particles in the air.

I patted his shoulder saying, "That's a good man." I returned to Jack's side and asked, "What would you like to see first?"

Lets go to the oceans of this planet." Jack said with a smile on his face.

"Can we do that tomorrow? There's a ceremony in a few hours that I can't really afford to miss..... sorry."I said apologetically. "But tomorrow I promise."

Jack shrugged his shoulders and said "what ever you say. Where we sleeping tonight?"

"You can take my old room in the family house. I'll sleep in the stables." I said leading him down the street and around the corner.

No ill sleep in the stables. You can take ur room."

"You are the guest. And if you want to argue then you can go ahead and sleep with the Snälrech on the alter." I growled. "No acceptions."

Um ok then your room it is..." jack said with a shrug "weirdo" he said under his breath jokingly as he went to her room.

I lead him through the house to my room. It was quite sparse with nothing more than a bed and a wardrobe. "Make yourself comfortable. Dinner will be at 8 if you're hungry." I said before heading out to the barn to set up.

"Nice place" jack said in his mind. He looked at the clock and saw it was a quarter til 7 so he set his back pack in the wardrobe and took his shirt off and relaxed on the bed.

I made a makeshift bed out of straw and curled up in it for a nap. I wasn't hungry so planned on skipping dinner.
