Hanna slammed the door shut, breathing hard.

A stifled gasp sounded behind her. She stiffened and drew her sword and spun around, Maylie did the same.

The buck behind them shrieked and backed up against the wall hands up. Hanna studied the buck. He was very thin and wore simple clothes, he carried no weapon. He had deep brown fur and bright green eyes that were framed with large round glasses.

Hanna lowered her sword. “Are you William?”

The buck gulped, but nodded.

Hanna sighed and sheathed her sword motioning for Maylie to do the same.

“I’m Hanna Joveson second daughter of king Smallden and queen Heather and I need your help,” Hanna said.

The buck William bit his lip.

“Please William I need you,” Hanna begged.

William looked towards a small bed in the corner of the room, his eyes full of concern.

Hanna followed his gaze, then walked over to the bed.

A thin, pale, buck laid there, Hanna recognized him.

“Heyward,” she whispered.

Hanna looked over at William and saw the resemblance.

“This is your father?” Hanna asked.

William nodded, looking down.

Hanna walked over to William.

“Listen, I can help him, but I need your help first,” she said, looking at him sternly.

William was quiet for a while, then he said. “What do you need me to do?”

Hanna nodded. “Maylie watch the door.”

Maylie nodded and stood in front of the door, sword drawn.

Hanna pulled Rynn's note from her skirt pocket. “With this.”

William took the note and studied it. “Its in a different language,” he said.

“I know, can you decipher it?” Hanna asked.

William pushed his glasses up. “Maybe,” he said, glancing over at the bed. “but I’m not him.”

“Please at least try,” Hanna said.

William nodded. “Okay,” he said, setting the note on his desk. “Let’s do this.”

Jo sighed and leaned against the cold stone wall to catch his breath.

“Hanna help!”

Jo straightened and cocked his ears, listening.

“Hanna help!”

“Niles!” Jo yelled as he darted off toward the sound of Niles's voice.

“Niles!” Jo yelled as he rounded a corner. His heart froze.

A large dragon hovered over Niles's small form.

“Jo!” Niles squeaked.

Jo drew his sword, but something hit him on the back of his head. He stiffened then fell to the ground.
