Chapter 5 The wisperer

Mr Swanson was seated in his office when I and tom trodded in

Good afternoon sir we said unanimously

Good afternoon boys he said looking at the

His pocket watch and then he dropped it back.

What can I do for you.

Sir we where hoping you could interpret a dream for us I said.

What is this dream about he said raising a brow.

Well I had a dream where a girl and a white dragon appeared to me.

What did they say

Nothing

You disturb my afternoon just to tell me nothing.

I was hoping seeing them in my dream would mean something.

Well they would have to relay a message for it to mean something

Since there was no message then you should know that there was nothing there.

Come sit the spirit mage said.

Not you tom you may leave unless you had the same dream as allister here.

No sir he said walking towards the door.

And I towards the chairs in his office

I sat in one and waited patiently.

Sorry young Baylon I know how important. It is for you to prove yourself.

I have heard about what your father thinks of you and I would urge you to take it easy on yourself.

You see our thoughts and fears manifest into our dreams.

This is not something special just allow it be and focus on your exams

It's your last and everyone expect you to do excellently

If you have any questions or need any help I will always be here to help you.

Thank you sir I said.

I got up and left his office.

My fears have all come to reality

I walk straight to my study. My stomach growled in hunger but I could not go to the dinning area not after what my father had said

I sat on my desk and tom opens the door.

I have been calling you

There was no response from me.

He walks to his desk and then back to mine here he said stretching a tray towards me

I went to grab lunch for you he said.

Thank you I replied.

He dropped it in front of me and I began to eat

Just then my eyes cut across something in one of the books opened in front of me.

I stood and went to look at it

It was exactly like the dragon I have seen earlier.

The text reads: the dream of whisperer is invaded by the white dragon And its rider.

Only when it is time for the whisperer to find them.

Without words all is said.

Look tom this is it. This is what

Tom was gone and I continued to browse through the book.

Why did I not see this earlier

Late into the night I read the book until the last letter.

This literature left me with a lot a questions.

Where do I find the rider and the dragon.

And why was I chosen to be the whisperer and what is it I do after I unite the two.

I could not go to professor Swanson anymore I have to figure out all this by myself

I hear the bell and eagerly finish the food which was now cold.

And then went ahead to the examination hall to write my last paper.

The school would be vacating by the morrow

So the spirit master, professor Swanson had set his paper the night before

It was a three part question which had an hour to each.

By ten o'clock we submitted and soon after it was lights out.

I lay on my bed wishing and hoping to sleep and see of the rider and her dragon there was a tiny spark in my chest that gave me life

I closed my eyes and when I opened them it was morning and all the students were already getting ready to go to home.

But not me I will be going to meldonia the home of the dragons.

I packed my bags and hurried to the docks

I left two letters one in my study and one on my bed.

For tom and Peter.

My father would not miss me and tom would understand after he read his.

The ship was already leaving the port when I felt a hand touch my shoulder.

Tom

Yes he said with a smile.

I figured you would need some help if you want to vanish

You should not be here I told him.

Your parents will be looking for you.

My parents don't care. Tom replied

I am here to see how your adventure goes and to lend a hand.

Okay I said.

I found some information about the white dragon and the rider.

I am going to meldonia

To the home of the dragons?

Yes I am going to meldonia to find the egg and the the rider.

The dragons are a myth they are not real

You will find people in meldonia not dragons

Whatever I find in meldonia will lead me to the rider and the dragon.

Okay but did you check very well the destination of this sheep

Yes I did. It's heading to a place named stickwood. I told him glancing at a map in hand.

There we will stay and find adventurers who will acompany us on our journey we would need those.

Tom looks at the water in front of him as he asked what about

What will your your father do when he hears you won't be attending your graduation

He will be okay.

Besides he thinks I killed his wife and I..

Excuse me I said as I left for my room. I could not continue the discussion.

This was hard for me as it brought back childhood memories that I wanted to forget.

One truth was I was running away from my past I was running away from my family

And as tears rolled down my cheeks I felt free knowing the only part of my past I was taking with me was tom
