Boom!
I jump. I look in front of me and see what looks to be the bottom of a dragon. I don't dare try to look upwards.
"Is that a...?", I whisper, frozen.
"A dragon...", Jester says.
I notice a person on the dragon as he jumps down. A man wearing odd, black clothes.
"Stand up.", the man says with a deep voice.
I raise an eyebrow. "No, I don't think i-"
He glares at me, and I close my mouth.
"I wasn't talking to you, woman." The man growls.
"How rude." I mutter, annoyed.
"I have been looking for the one they call The Jester.", he says as he points to Jester.
"Why are you looking for him?", I ask suspicious.
"That's none of your business."
Jester laughs. "Why are you looking for me? Interested in playing cards or something?" he asks.
The man looks at the both of us. Then suddenly, he disappears and reappears right behind the Jester. He stays still.
"I know who killed your parents.", the man says, grinning.
