Chapter 7: The Elf



The chipmunk was able to walk without Arena carrying him this time, because he got some rest.

They walked through trees and cleared away branches until they heard someone scampering in the woods that was not them.

"Who's that?" asked Arena, frightened.

"I don't know." said Nina.

The chipmunk just stood there, being still. He looked as if he was frightened too.

Just then, a tall boy elf with long blonde hair came out from hiding behind a tree. He starred at them, then said, "Hello."

Arena was too shy (even for a seventeen year old) to say anything. So Nina said, "Hello, it is nice to meet you. But what are you doing wandering around in this wood?"
The elf's head fell, and he he said, "My parents died, and I have no home, it was destroyed in a fire."
"A fire? That's too bad." Arena finally said.

"Well, if you want you can come with us." Nina said kindly.

"Really?" said the elf.

"Sure." said Nina.

"What are you doing?" wispered the chipmunk to Nina, "we don't know anything about this guy."
