The Tales of A Vampire

C97- The Promise

Allyson's POV

That night Colton couldn't sleep. He was anxious. The words of her mother repeatedly replay in his mind.

I just wonder how can Colton voluntarily wake up from his dream. I guess, his mother is right. In his dream, everything seems real. And if he does want the second option, how would he make Elliot get back his spell from him to wake up from this dream? What he should do to convince Elliot? If he chooses the first one, how would he know if it was time for him to wake up? It

Casper was mad at Elliot. And the two keep talking about how to escape from this dangerous dream that Elliot cast on them. They must solve this problem as soon as possible.

The whole night, Colton is awake. He took his breakfast and goes to the training with the warriors. Seems that they have a chance to win in the upcoming war.

The Kingdom was absorbed in preparing for war. The witches and sorcerers practice their chants and spell for the war.

Maybe, Colton was tired the whole day that he slept early.

At the wee hour, Colton wakes up to prepare for the fight. He goes outside sniffing the air. He does check the clearing with warriors on duty. Then he sniffed something. He gave an urgent command.

" The enemies are coming! Prepare for battle! Alarm the Kingdom. Alarm the King!" Colton said. The two warriors take leave immediately. The rest of the warriors sniff the air. They growl when they smell the enemies.

"Warriors! Prepare for the battle, the first batch of warriors, go into your position!" Colton said in their minds.

"Ready! Charge!" Colton was in-charged of the king in the first batch of warriors. He prepares an arrow that is made of silver with fire for the witches and the vampires.

"Warriors! Attack!" He commanded thru their mind-linking communication method. Since these vampires were strong under the sun, he made the silver arrow with garlic essence.

Unexpectedly, the vampires were surprised that with every arrow that hit them, they turned to ashes. Witches on the other hand are afraid of the arrow's fire. They tried to cast a spell but Constancia and the witches cast a spell on the arrows, so nobody escaped from this arrow's strength and power. The enemies were angry about their first loss of battalion so their second battalion attacked after receiving a command from their head. The second battalion of Colton's group surprised them to attack from the trees. Their swords had a spell, specially made for the witches so each attack has no spare left. This was a good strategy.

The rest are now fighting in combat. The new technique he taught them is very helpful. They are now advancing on the enemy. The enemy's witches made a moved this time and so the witches in Colton's group gave them a counterattack. Black magic was used by their enemy while Colton's side used witches from the white and green magic. It's amazing to watch this war where different species of supernatural beings are fighting together with their enemies.

They got the victory. The enemies are now retreating. But two of the Royal best trackers followed them discreetly accompanied by some witches and best warriors, and the Royal Beta Connor follow them, tracking them.

The warriors cheered when the enemies retreated. They back to their pack while the warriors on post go to their duties to guard the territory and wait for the others to return.

"My King, we won the war!" The Royal Gamma Dolphus reported the news to the king. The King stepped down and stops after the third stairs, raising his both hands.

"Warriors... packs... stop cheering, please!" The king announced. The crowd was stopped and confused. It seems that the king was not happy. Why?

"I made you stop to cheer because the war is not yet over. The Royal Beta Connor, some warriors, our best trackers, and our witches have still tracked down the enemy, so please instead of making cheer for our almost victory, let us pray first for them. Let us ask the Moon Goddess to protect them and make them victorious and most of all make them come back safely to their families. Shall we?" My grandfather said. I was happy and proud when my grandfather said these words. He has a big heart. Now, I know why people love my grandfather.

"Yes, King Amoux." The King's subjects said in chorus. They did what their king wants.

"Grandfather, I promise you. I will make you proud of me. As Colton did, I will do my duty and do my best to make different species and shifters live in harmony and peace like before. This is my solemn promise to you. So help me, grandfather. Help me Moon Goddess." As I silently pray and promise my grandfather.
