Here it is!
Chapter seven: A strange meeting – part two
Inside the hut the newcomers discovered a lot of dissimilar things. The living room was, unlike the other living rooms they had seen, ovate shaped and in the centre of the room there was standing a huge sofa with a nice red cloth, and some soft pillows laying at it. Right under it there was a large carpet with dark and light green colours. A window formed like a circle allowed the early daylight to light up the place, and down to the left of the window there was a fireplace, which crackled. The Grubb went in to the living room and sat down on the comfortable sofa, followed by Stranger and the Ultimate Hunter. Stormous, who still stood in the door opening said to them:
- I’ll be back about an hour and while you find something to wear then I’ll prepare the Leader for the meeting. The Ultimate Hunter will help you find some clothes, but remember to wear something not too colourful, Vivay doesn’t like when clothes are too “flashy”.
- Right, Stranger paused, but what are we supposed to wear then?
- Just ask the Ultimate Hunter; he knows, Stormous answered as he went out and closed the door behind him.
The Ultimate Hunter turned around and looked at the newcomers with tired and anger gazing eyes. Then he said with a nicely and relaxing voice:
- Please be my guests, sit down on the sofa here and I’ll get some refreshments.
He went out from the room and went in to the kitchen. Stranger sat down on it beside his friend and asked her:
- I wonder what I’m about to say to Vivay… how am I in the name of Odd going to start?
- Eh matie, you have to take it easy or else it wont matter. Just take a deep breath and for once try to relax. We’re soon about to face Vivay and I guess it would be bad if we didn’t take it slow and gently, the Grubb answered while she laid herself on the sofa.
Stranger took a deep breath and let the air escape through his mouth, but slowly. The Ultimate Hunter soon returned with a bulky platter with three cups full of warm tee and left it on a table, which stood right in front of the couch. But as fast as he appeared, he soon disappeared through the living room door. He returned again but this time with some sandwiches on a big plate and laid it on the table as well. The Ultimate Hunter sat down on the sofa with them, and said:
- Well don’t just stare, dig in dig in!
Stranger and the Grubb took a sandwich each and started eating. The Grubb looked pleased and so did also Stranger. Stranger said with pride:
- These Sandwiches are so good, how did you make them?
- Secret family recipe. The whole thing with these are that you could eat yourself fill on just eating one or two, even if they’re small, there was a pause, by the way you can call me Hunter what do the guardians call you? The Greyers? The Unknowns?
- Not exactly. I’m the Grubb Leader of the Grubbs and this is my friend Stranger. What do you mean by the Greyers or the Unknowns, the Grubb asked.
- Nah Just some guys that are known more as the new enemies for us Steefs, but the odd is that I’ve only seen and defeated some of them. Anyway you said you guys looked for some clothes, eh?
- New enemies?
- Yeah, but I guess you knows them as Wolclarks, a relative species to the Wolwarks who eliminated Alca’s tribe. The Wolwarks often has yellow skin while the Wolclarks has grey skin, that why we call them for the Greyers.
- Oh, yeah we’ve heard about them, from the Legendaries, Stranger said with eager.
- You have? Well then I guess you’ve seen them as well, haven’t you?
- No we’ve just heard about them.
- Right, Hunter said as he took his cup of tee and drank it all up with haste before he continued, shall we see if there are any clothes for you then?
Stranger and his friend nodded and followed Hunter; to the great Clothes Storage.
