"CHAN!" I screamed, and I ran to him

I got on my knees, and I saw blood coming from him, he is already losing too much, and I tried to get him on his back, but he was too heavy because of the armour. Eventually, it worked, and I got him his back, and what I feared the most was the truth he already lost much blood

I put my hand on the place where he was stabbed, and I put pressure on it

"Come on, Chan stay with me please" I whispered and I looked at him

"Please please," I thought and my eyes were getting teary

Suddenly I remembered something

"The nymphs" I thought and I got up and I pulled chan's body back to the lake of the nymphs

When I eventually arrived, the nymphs were looking at us and Calliope and Aurora were on the shore

"Please help me!" I shouted with tears rolling my cheeks

"Please, please" I begged them and Aurora and Calliope looked at Syrena

"I'm sorry, but we won't help you" Syrena said and I couldn't believe it, why?

"W-Why won't y-you help us?" I sobbed and Syrena looked at me

"I can't trust your people anymore" she said coldly and started swimming to the shore and she got in front of Aurora and Calliope

"B-but why?" I asked her with tears rolling my cheeks and I looked at them

"Once they were living more nymphs around the area, we lived in peace with nature and the animals but soon your people arrived, the men they took everything from us and we are last nymphs of this forest and we protect this lake and it's nature, no matter price" Syrena said and I felt sorry for her and the other nymphs

"I'm so sorry to hear that but please, help him I beg you" I begged and I got on my knees

"Please, please" I whimpered and she looked at me

"We will help you but under one condition" she said and I looked up and I smiled, I couldn't believe it

"Thank you, thank you! Ofcourse what do you want?" I asked her

"When you two are crowned, you must make a law for us, that don't steal our lands and don't hurt my people" she said, and I nodded rapidly

"Yes, yes, Of course!" I said, and they smiled. Calliope and Aurora pulled chan's body into the water, and they grabbed him by his legs

Aurora was swimming on the right side and Calliope was swimm on the left and Syrena went to Chan's and she put his thumb on his forehead and she spoke an ancient language that I some how could understand

The water floaded over chan's body, and it started slow to heal his wounds

"Spirits of the old waters, please let me your strength," she said as the water lights up

I couldn't believe my eyes what was happening, the water is healing chan

Eventually, the nymphs stopped with their ritual, and they healed chan with water

They slowly pushed chan back to shore, and I got on my knees when his head came on the sand, and he was healed like nothing happened,

"He is much better now, he only needs to rest"

"Thank you, thank you so much." I smiled, and my head caressed chan's forehead, and Aurora and Calliope smiled at me while syrena looked at me

"We will never forget this" I said, and I looked at her, but she didn't look at me but instead to my necklace

"Where did you get that necklace from?" She suddenly asked, and I grabbed my necklace between two fingers

"My mother gave it to me and she said it once belonged to my grandmother" I said, and I showed it her

"A long time ago I gave the excat same necklace to one of our people.. does your grandmother still live?" She asked, and I shook my head

"No, she died before I was born," I said, and she looked at me with sad smile

"Well, your grandmother was amazing," she said, and suddenly the nymphs disappeared, and I couldn't believe my eyes

"What did she mean?" I thought, and I looked at Chan

"Hyunjin...?" He said in a weak voice

"Shh, I'm here," I whispered, and I got up, and I grabbed his arms and pulled him with me to his dragon

After a few minutes

"By the Holy goddess, chan you're heavy" I thought and I came back to his dragon, Nightshade who was eating the thief's their bodies and she suddenly looked at me

"I-I'm a friend, I come in peace.. I saved your rider" I said and she looked at chan

I pulled him with me to his dragon, and she looked at him and back to me, showing her teeth. Oh god

"No, no, no! I didn't kill him.. he... he.. he is alive!" I said but dragon growled at me

"Please, I didn't kill him.. I never would kill anyone" I begged and got on my knees

Dragon stopped growling, and somehow she knew chan was still alive, so she went lower to ground so I could get on the dragon's back

But what about chan? He was too heavy to pull him with me, and suddenly Nightshade started spreading her wings and started going up

She grabbed chan with her feet, and she started flying back the capital

Yeah, I'm still figuring out how to write it, dragon, flying like that

Do you think the nymph syrena knew Hyunjin's grandmother? Let me know your thoughts. I like to read your theories
