Chapter 1 out of 2

Rollan sat on top of his horse strolling along the village through the road spotting a couple of older villagers moving around from places to obtain needed things for their daily lives. On the way, two men passed by the guard and waved at the raven-haired man. “Good day, gentleman" Greeted the Spaniard, followed by his horse puffing making the rider chuckle.

“Your sad they didn't have any apples with them, am I right?” Asked Rollan making the horse neigh. “Next time you might get something, if not I take us a few for our break, what do you say?”

The stallion nodded followed by a puffing, then came along the way over a child, which was being escorted by an adult woman and Rollan stopped curious to see what's going on.

“Good morning, Miss Langö” Greeted Rollan. “Is everything alright?”

“I'm bringing Lyudmila home. He wasn't feeling good at the school,” Commented the woman, then watched the girl place his hand on the horse's face to caress it. “She got very nauseous after the break and now she's coming home,”

“That's the best thing to do then,” Responded Rollan looking at the girl, that was patting the service horse. “Do you like Valiente?” Asked Rollan making the girl nod. “He's a very brave horse,”

“You've got him from the Danish farmer behind the castle, right?”

“No, actually he was a gift from King Esteban of Spain. According to him, Valiente's parents were good breeding choices between two horses from another kingdom. I don't remember the ones, but I remember the one King to be Danish and the horses chosen to mate were called Sitrone and Keke”

“I think I've heard from the Queen. She was supposed to meet King Harald, but after those two disasters with the Mirrorlands it didn't happen for a long time,”

“Exactly,” Commented Rollan, then saw the girl beginning to cough hard making Rollan feel worried about the girl. “Shall I offer you two a ride to a healer? She doesn't seem quite well,”

“It's alright. My sister is in the near and she's got the carriage to carry us three. You've got your own duty to perform,” Rejected Miss Langö kindly. “Thanks for the offer,"

“Bye Valiente,” Said the girl making Rollan smile and pat his stallion as well. “Hey, que tal? Shall we go visit the food store or head to the next checkpoint?” Questioned Rollan, then heard loud ringing bells and widened his eyes.

“A robbery,” Commented Rollan looking at his horse, then pushed on the leash and Valiente ran off with the man on his back, so they would go around the village to look for the noise of the bells and saw four masked thieves charging a carriage with bags filled with money and a fifth person stood down aiming at the entrance of the bank to prevent anyone to follow them.

“Stop in the name of King Harald!” Ordered Rollan, then the man aimed at Rollan, then took a shot and Valiente jumped aside to both would miss the shoot. The thief jumped at the cart, then ordered the rider of the vehicle to drive off and Rollan began to follow the carriage, short while later another rider appeared who wore the same uniform as Rollan but had a shorter rank.

“I'm right here!” Announced the second guard following the carriage across the village.

On the other side of the village inside a coffee shop stood Gerda emptying hot water from a pan into four cups and brought it on a tableau out of the shop to a group of adults, which were there sitting and listening to one guest of another table telling a story.

“There you go, guys. Have you decided what sort of cake you want?” Asked the blonde woman, making them nod.

“I'll list it down. Only three of us are interested right now. Norbert would love to have lemon cake, I'd like apple pie and Hans would like to have Cheesecake if there is,”

“Our baker Adrian’ is working on one. It might just take 10-15 minutes longer,” ‘

“I still take it. It's our day off though,” Commented Hans making Gerda nod.

“Yeah, I hope you four enjoy our time here at the shop,” Commented Gerda making the group nod, then she walked to the next table to pick up a few cups that were left back by the last visitors, then Gerda heard a gunshot and shrieked about it.

One of the guests that sat there was a guard as well and got up from the chair and dropped several coins on the table while on the ground a shepherd mixed breed got up, waiting for the guard to pick up the leash and before leaving the shop the guard noticed from the end a carriage coming, where the gang was and he ordered all to get down.

“Heads down!” Shouted the man seeing all guests hide along with Gerda, which watched all guests look at the exit waiting for the thieves to pass by.

The carriage just passed by and the guard released the dog, which began to race behind the vehicle and the man jumped at the next carriage, that belonged to the guards of the kingdom.

Gerda climbed above the terrace of the coffee shop to transform herself into her dragon form and took up in the air to pursue the thieves from above, then recognized coming from the second road from behind the coffee her husband Rollan come along with his horse and another member of the guard.

“Oh Rollan is at the work” Commented Gerda, then sank down to stay closer to the carriage, that was pursuing the bandits. “Bullet, watch out!” Yelled Gerda, then watched the dog slow down and move from the sides, so the thief wouldn't injure the dog.

“Bullet, bite,” Ordered one of the guards and the dog ran fast to the carriage of the thieves and switched the side again to avoid another bullet, then jumped at the leashes that were attached to the horses to cause chaos between the riders and the animals.

Bullet barked strictly at the two riders, which lied on the ground, then from behind arrived the carriage with two other guards, which took out their guns to aim at the two men in the back of the cart.

Bullet bites one of the men on the arm, afterward, the second thief hit the dog with the edge of his gun on the head causing it to yelp, then the second thief got up and ran in the direction of the forest, where Rollan showed up with his horse aiming his gun at the criminal.

” Hands up!” Ordered Rollan, then the thief gazed back spotting Gerda's wizard form on top of the cart glaring at the thief that remained back on the car, fearing the heroine.

Rollan slowly made his way to the man, then packed him on his arms, moving his hand to the thief's gun to remove the weapon he held. Rollan made it, then pointed it at the villain, which slowly took his arms up.

In the meantime, Gerda got down of bag pile and led the criminal back to the cart of the guards and observed from a few meters behind two guards watching the criminals enter one by one, after being handcuffed with a pair of cuffs. Rollan and his colleague were taking a look at the horses of the outlaws, then walked past the back of the police carriage to one of the guards.

“That went pretty fast. Thank you, Red Dragon,” Thanked a guard giving the dragon his hand to shake.

“One of the horse's legs seems to be sprained,” Commented Rollan. “One of us has to accompany it to the vet afterward,”

“You can go if you're okay with it. I'll take the group,” Mentioned the guard, that accompanied Rollan during the pursuit. Rollan looked at Gerda and smiled glad about her help, then gave out his hand, which she took and held. “Gracias Amor” Thanked the Spaniard quiet.

The last thief threw himself against the guard with the handcuffs, then removed the gun from the belt and is embraced the thief to take the gun away from the man. Rollan placed his hand on Gerda's shoulder to guide her aside from the zone and took out his gun approaching the trio.

“Take it down!” Ordered the husband of the wizard and the other guard returned to interrupt. Someone triggered the gun's mechanism to let out a bullet, which targeted Rollan on the side of his body, causing him to groan in pain.

“Rollan!” Shouted Gerda approaching the husband and the fourth guard had taken over the criminal to remove his weapon, then watched him getting handcuffed before getting thrown into the cart.

“Arthur, Merlin, one officer down,” Warned the redhead, then watched Red Dragon embrace the injured Spaniard to analyze the injury.

“You're bleeding! Hold on, we're going to get you out of here,” Warned Gerda, then the guard, that accompanied Rollan tapped the heroine on the shoulder to get her attention.

“If you're alright with this, could you bring Rollan into a hospital and see if they can take care of him? You're much faster than us,”

“I will without any doubt,” Commented Gerda, then took Rollan up on her arms and blew at his face to pull the hair bangs away. “If you can please talk to me. Anything, just try to stay awake” Begged the heroine seeing Rollan jerking with his shoulders feeling intense pain and Gerda gently clawed with her one hand behind Rollan's back. “Tell me something about the kids”

“Roscoe loves snail houses a lot,” Commented Rolllan making Gerda smile seeing he was able to talk. "He collects them often at our walks..."

“Yes! He's crazy about them,” Confessed the brunette woman beginning to flap with her wings up to take a look at the surroundings.

“Helena is very smart and creative. She made you once a small bookshelf out of wood with your dad, remember?” Questioned Rollan making his wife nod.

“Si, my love,” Responded Gerda gazing into the eyes of the husband, which was awake and Gerda tapped on Rollan’s cheek with one claw perking him up more. “Tell me about what they've done yesterday,” Gerda added, then made her way above the village carrying Rollan to a healer.
