Chapter 1
Ben had finally walked over there to see what happened.
He was inflicted by the sight of a man kneeling in front of Jasmine and seeing her hold a sword over his head.
He quickly ran beside her and placed his hand on her shoulder.
"What happened." He asked.
He looked down at the man and stood in disbelief. It was the man in his dream. His face and all.
"Whats- wha-" he gulped, "what's your name?"
"Joseph Dovery."
Ben smiled and helped the man up.
"I'm Ben Dovery. "
The man looked confused. He did not respond to anything that Ben was implying. He dusted himself off and picked back up the basket of fruit he was picking.
"Our last names must be common in these parts."
Jasmine let go of the sword and stared at him.
"Who else came here with you?"
"My wife." He turned around and started to direct them, to where he was going.
He went further back into the island and stood in front of a large cave opening. Joseph then went inside and knelt beside a woman.
She was dark skinned, with long black hair, and brown eyes. Her clothes we're raged and she was wrapped up in a long torn cloth.
Jasmine stepped closer and looked at her features. The lady looked as if she was, pregnant.
Joseph rubbed her belly and held her hand.
Ben finnaly walked inside the cave and stood at it's end. He peered over to see the lady and he squinted his eye brows.
"Is she-"
"Yes. She is 8 months and 2 weeks in." He smiled and gazed apon the woman."
Ben stood close beside Jasmine and whisped into her ear.
"Should we let them come with us?"
No! Ben heard her voice bellow in his brain.
Why? This could be my brother. And he seems harmless. Ben replied back.
Well. You don't know that for sure. She hesitantly remarked.
Jasmine. Trust me. He looked at her carefully.
Okay.
"Joseph? " Ben called from a far.
"Yes, Ben?"
"Would you like a ride from us?" He asked.
"Uh..."
"We can find a proper clinic for you." He lied.
"Well. Thank you." He started to pack all of their belongings.
Joseph picked up his wife and cradled her in his arms.
Ben walked beside him and looked at the lady.
"What is your name miss?"
"Amy." She rest her head on Joseph's shoulder.

Chapter 2
It had been hours since they saw land.
"So! How long where you guys on that island? " Ben asked.
"A couple of weeks." Joseph looked out into the distance, "After the Zaltar castle was destroyed, we had no where to go."
Jasmine suddenly turned towards them.
"You two, we're at the Zaltar Castle?"
"Yes. We got an invitation a few days back. It said something about an announcement. " he said.
"That jerk Asarth had o get all trigger happy. " said Amy.
No one said any remarks.
They sat in silence for a few minutes and thought.
Ben swerved to the left and bumped into Joseph. He grabbed his arm, and a shock of pain escalated.
He had a flash back.

He and Joseph we're babies playing together. Rattling a toy in each other's face. They giggle and clapped.
The Queen came from outside and picked Jospeh up, she took him to another room and put him to bed. The king did the same to Ben.

They could see clearly now. Everything flashed back to normal.
Ben and Jospeh were stuck in a blank stare.
And they could not explain what they saw.
"We... we have to stay together. At least until we find out what we just saw." Said Joseph.
Ben nodded.

And they proceded to ride. In silence, and wonder.

Part 11 coming soon. To conclude the series.
