Chapter 7

Chapter 7


“How long can they hold the force field up?” Asks Alberto as he watches them. Bram looks at Bridget and Dagon “I have no idea, I am hoping these attacks will stop.” Said Bram. King Arthur nods his head in agreement. Suddenly the attacks stop as suddenly as it came. “Dagon and Bridget you can relax now.” Said Bram. Both Dagon and Bridget relax. Alberto notices how worn out they are after the ordeal.

“I think Dagon and Bridget should rest.” Said Queen Daphne. Dagon nods his head as he and Bridget leaves the room. “Who attack us?” asks Alberto a bit confused. “We really have no clue why they are picking on us. Or what they are. They are from a planet called Goth. That is all we know about them.” Said King Arthur as he looks outside.

(Later)

“I hope I have don’t have to do that again.” Said Dagon as he enters the main chamber. Alberto looks up from what he is doing. “Once these things stop and leaving us alone I am sure you need to do it again.” Said Alberto as he watches Dagon as he sits down. “I am still curious about the necklace. How does it know when these attacks comes or when to help out?” Asks Dagon a bit confused.

“Our people came from a different planet, that was dying. They sent out a party to find another planet to live on. They found this one we call Twilight. When they were waiting for the ships to arrive they were exploring the planet, they have found a magic jewel that they turn into necklaces for their King and Queen and their families.” Answered Queen Daphne.

“The necklaces get pass down in our family?” Asks Dagon as he listens. “Yes, There is always two are made in case there are twins in the family.” Said Queen Daphne. The cook enters the room “Your majesties lunch is ready for you in the dining room.” Said the Cook. “I still don’t understand how I ended up on the planet Myst, I know Bram did the spell, but I am still wondering how I ended up there?” asks Dagon as he gets up and heads towards the door. “We will explain it after we had lunch. I am going to get Bridget.” Said Queen Daphne.

(Later after Lunch.)

“When it was our turn, we had to take two ships to get here. I took Bridget in the first one your father took you in the second one.” Said Queen Daphne as she sits down and tries to remember what happen next. “ I watched your mother and sister take off while I waited for my ship to get ready. After mine was ready, we took off, I was in contact with your mother to make sure she and Bridget was airtight. I ran into a meter shower that knocks us off course, it was near Myst. I didn’t know the planet name when I landed on the planet. Our ship was damaged not to badly. I left the door open and it is my guess you woke up from your nap and wonder outside. After awhile I took off. I didn’t notice you were gone after I reached Twilight.” Said King Arthur finishing the story. Dagon was shocked to hear this. “The people who found me that day tried to find out who I was.” Said Dagon a bit sad as he remembers the kind people on Myst.

Bridget sees how sad Dagon has become “ You always will remember them. I am happy they raised you.” Said Bridget as she tries to cheer Dagon up. Dagon smiles and replies “Thanks Bridget. I wont forget them, they are part of my life.” Said Dagon. “I am glad they did or something will bad happen then.” Said Queen Daphne as she picks up her needlepoint. Dagon smiles as he starts to leave. “ I am going to walk outside with Aella for awhile.” Said Dagon. “I see you already found a lady in her.” Asks King Arthur. Dagon blushes a bit and nods his head yes as he leaves the room. “Your Majesty, care to join me for a walk as well?” asks Alberto to Bridget a bit shyly. “I would love too. Please call me Bridget.” Said Bridget answering Alberto. Alberto raises his arm and Bridget takes it as they leave the room. “I see Alberto has fallen in love with Bridget.” Said King Arthur as he watches them leave. Queen Daphne looks up from her needlepoint “Yes, I do admit they look cute together. Remember Bridget has the right to choose who she can marry same with Dagon.” Said Queen Daphne as she goes back to her needlepoint.

(Later)

Aella comes in running. King Arthur sees her and come towards her. “Is something wrong?” he asks her. Aella nods her head yes “Your majesty it is Dagon he just collapsed. He told me to come to get you.” Said Aella out of breath. “Please lead me to him.” Said King Arthur. Aella nods her head and they both leave. Few minutes they are at Dagon side. King Arthur is shock to see Bridget and Alberto there as well. “What happen to him?” asks Alberto a bit worried as he watches King Arthur checking out Dagon. “I have no idea, Dagon can you hear me?” ask King Arthur. Dagon looks at his father then passes out. “Alberto, please find Castor for me.” King Arthur asks. Alberto nods his head and he runs off to get Castor. King Arthur notices Aella and Bridget are worried about Dagon. “Will be all right?” asks Aella breaking the silence.

“I don’t know. I am not too sure what is wrong with him.” Said King Arthur as he checks Dagon out again. Suddenly Dagon has a fit. King Arthur tries to calm him down. “Bridget tries to use your necklace.” Said King Arthur. Bridget nods her head and says the magic words. It didn’t work. Alberto and Castor arrive.

“Let me check him out.” Said Castor as he kneels beside Dagon. The others move out of the way so Castor can check Dagon out. “Dagon has been poisoned.” Said Castor as he stands up. The others were shocked to hear this. “Do you know what kind of poison?” asks King Arthur to Castor. “Yes, it is very deadly thou. We must move him into his chambers. Alberto please helps me carry Dagon. ” Castor said as he looks at Dagon. Alberto nods his head and he and Castor carries him to his Chambers.

“Your majesty, Can I help?” asks Aella to King Arthur. King Arthur looks at Aella and answers, “Yes, you can stay with Dagon. You and Alberto can look after him there.” Said King Arthur. “Thanks your majesty” Said Aella as she leaves them. “Father, who wants to poison Dagon for?” asks Bridget a bit worried. “I have no idea, it must happen when we had lunch. I will ask the cook staff” Said King Arthur as he leaves. Bridget went back to the main chamber to fill in Queen Daphne.

(In Dagon’s Chamber.)

“He seems getting worse every minute” Said Aella as she holds Dagon hand as she watches Castor do his stuff. “I am not too sure what poison that was used. So it is hard to treat it.” Said Castor as he works his stuff. King Arthur enters the room. “I found out what poison that was used.” Said King Arthur as he looks at Dagon. “Please tell me.” Said Castor as he looks at King Arthur. King Arthur tells him. “I never heard of that poison before.” Said Castor a bit worried now.

“I have, on Myst we use that to kill rodents that eat the crops. There is a antidote for it.” Said Alberto. Castor looks at Alberto. “Can you make it here?” Castor asks Alberto. Alberto nods his head yes and tells Castor what he needs. “I have all that in my place. Please come with me, I will help you with it as well.” Said Castor as they both leave the room.

Queen Daphne and Bridget enter the room. “Any news? Bridget told me what happen.” Said Queen Daphne. King Arthur explains what poison that was used on Dagon. “Alberto knows the antidote for it, He and Castor are making it now.” Said King Arthur. Queen Daphne looks at Dagon, “Who would do a such a thing to us?” Queen Daphne asks no one. “ I have no idea, maybe it these things that keeps attacking us here.” Said King Arthur. Just then Castor and Alberto returns with the antidote, Alberto goes over to the bed “Dagon drink this.” Said Alberto as he helps Dagon with the drink.

“Aella, he must drink this antidote every hour.” Said Alberto. Aella nods her head. “Don’t worry I will be here as well. He might try to fight it.” Continues Alberto as he looks at Dagon. “I will leave you two here with Dagon, I need to find out if this cook is true or a imposter.” Said King Arthur as he walks out the room. The others follow him out.
