SAVE ME

The dragon soared in the sky . This was thrill exhilaration. It never get this free before and so –

A stone was throne at it and brought it to the ground.

Warren transformed back into it’s human form and eyed Jade” Hey, couldn’t you just call me?”Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

“I did. You didn’t hear me ”

Warren sighed “What is it ?”

“Alexa is here to -”

Before Jade could complete his sentence, Warren ran out to meet Alexa.

Warren and Alexa had been friends since childhood and over the years, it only made sense that he likes her but he kept it to himself.

But still, he still can’t help getting giddy whenever Alexa came to see him .

Although, he was sure she needed his help with something.

“I thought we were going to the demon realm?” Josty said facing Alexa

“Me too” Karina seconded.

“We can’t go to the demon realm. Especially without a plan . But I know someone who can help ”

“Who is that ?”Karina asked

Alexa smiled as she saw Warren walk towards them “He’s here ”

Warren backed away slowly when he saw Alexa and Josty with a bat “What is this? Did you come to kill me ?”

“No, it’s not that”

Warren moved closer to them ” That’s a relief. Josty, Karina hi”

“O-oh, hi” Karina stuttered while Josty waved a hand at him.

Warren smiled at Alexa”What do you need my help with this time ?”

Alexa scoffed “What ? When you put it that way you sound like i only come to meet you for help”

“That’s because you do. should I remind you ?”

“No ” Alexa interjected hurriedly “But this time , it’s not me that needs the help ”

Warren turned serious”Who ?”

Alexa sighed “Celine. We think she’s captured in the demon realm”

Warren rummaged his hand through his head “This is bad ”

***

“W-why why me ?” Warren asked after pacing around.

“We can’t really go into the demon realm ourselves “Alexa said.

“I know. Hold on a second, let me get something straight. Do you want me to go into the demon realm and bring Celine out ? ” Warren scoffed looking from Karina to Josty “Doesn’t that sound  delusional ?”

“Hey, are you helping us or not ?”Josty asked harshly. She was loosing her patience. Celine could already be dead by now.

“Obviously, I won’t-“Warren blurted out but then his eyes moved to Alexa “I won’t butt out. I’ll help you”

Alexa smiled “Really? Thank you”

“But can you come up with a less ‘life-threatening’ plan to get her out ?”Warren said.

They all thought long and hard and Karina squealed as an idea pooped into her head.

“The dragon ball festival “Karina shouted.

Alexa smiled”That’s right. Everyone is invited. ”

Warren shook his head “The demon realm isn’t invited ”

Josty smiled “Yet. They aren’t invited yet ”

Warren looked at the three girls ” You want me to invite them ?”

“Yes. That’s what you will do for us. Help us invite them then on the day of the festival” Alexa breathed out “The three of us will bring Celine out . How is that? Is that a safer idea for you ?”

Warren didn’t like the idea of Alexa going to the demon realm but as long as she won’t be going alone, he thought it was fine” okay, I like it ”

“Let’s go!!” Alexa shouted

“To where??” Warren asked looking confused

“The demon realm. You have to invite them , remember?”

“Wait, now ?”

Josty swung her bat at Warren and stopped mid- air”Yes, now ”

It was night when they got to the demon realm . They hid behind a block.

There they saw Damien striding in .

“What? Isn’t that the pervert ?” Alexa whispered.

“Wasn’t he a vampire?” Karina asked.

“What? pervert?” Warren asked confusedly.

“Don’t mind us. Just go in already ” Josty said to Warren.

“Hey, whatever you do . avoid that pervert, huh ? That man there ” Alexa said pointing to Damien and tapping Warren’s shoulder “Now , go in ”

Warren breathed heavily before walking in .

“Who are you ?” A girl asked

“I’m Warren . I’m here to see the demon lord. There’s an invitation for him to attend the ‘dragon ball feast’ ”

“Okay, follow me then but head down . No one is allowed to look at the lord’s face ”

“I understand” Warren said and followed her with his head down.

Damien sat on his throne and Rosco rushed over to him “Did everything go well?”

“Yes, I think Faren got the message ”

The girl entered his chamber”My Lord , someone is here to see you ”

Damien knelt on the floor with his head down “Greetings , my Lord ”

“Who are you?”

“An humble servant from the dragon realm. We bring invitations to you to add the ‘dragon ball feast’ ”

Damien’s eyes widened. He’d never been invited by any realm before.

“Raise up your head ” he commanded.

Everyone was shocked.

No one from another realm was allowed to look at the face of the demon lord.

Warren raised up his head and his eyes widened. Pervert was the demon lord ??!

“I asked you to raise your head to mark your face. If this invitation ends up stirring chaos or bring an intruder to my realm” Damien smirked “I’ll find you and kill you . You may leave now  ”

Warren stood up and rejoined the girls outside.

“Hey, why are you looking as if you saw a ghost ?” Karina asked Warren.

“Because I just did . Girls” Warren said looking from one to the other “Pervert is demon lord ”

“WHAT!!!???”the three girls chorused in shock .
