Chapter 4

“Bran, do you know what the planet is called?” asks Alberto as he watches more creatures coming out of the tree. Bran shakes his head.“What ever hit us totally took us off course.” Dagon looks a bit closer at the creatures and is shocked to see that they have wings. “I think we are scaring them because of our size.” Said Dagon as he sits down to see if they will come closer.

 The creatures come out of the tree and a bit closer to Dagon. They seem curious about the tall strangers that arrived on their planet. “We won’t want to harm you.” Said Dagon in a soft voice. The creatures start to talk in their own language, not too sure of Dagon just yet. Bran looks at the creatures and sees them as Fairies. “Dagon uses the necklace to see if it will translate their language.” Bran said as he gives the words for the necklace to work.

 Dagon repeats what Bran just said. “What are you doing here, Giants?” asks one of the Fairies to Dagon. Dagon explains to them what happened to their ship. “We didn’t really want to harm anyone here.” Said Dagon. The Fairies look at the ship and then back to the Giants, “Who are you?” asks the same Fairy. Dagon introduces everyone to the Fairies.

 “I am called TinkerBell; I am the Queen of the Fairies.” Said TinkerBell. “I hope we didn’t land on any of your houses.” Said Dagon. TinkerBell shakes her head no. “We live in the trees mostly. How long will it take to fix your ship?” TinkerBell asks. Dagon explains it to her. “We are hoping it won’t take too long.” Finishes Dagon. Tinkerbell looks at the ship and nods her head in agreement. “I agree; to me, it doesn’t look too bad. Do you know what hit you?” asks TinkerBell.

 Bran shakes his head no. “No I don’t. It won’t take that long to fix it up.” Bran said as he continues to look at the damages. Both Alberto and Dagon went over and checked the damages. “We should get started; I don’t want to work in the dark.” Said Alberto as he looks up at the sky. Bran nods his head in agreement, and then he went to get some tools.

 (Twenty minutes later, the ship is fixed.)

 “That should do it.” Said Bran as he checks the ship again. “I am tired from that.” Said Alberto. Dagon nods his head in agreement. “I think I can sleep for a week after that.” Said Dagon. Bran just smiles and turns towards TinkerBell. “Thanks for letting us stay here until we got the ship fixed.” Said Bran. TinkerBell smiles and replies back” welcome. I hope there will be no more attacks on your ship.” Bran nods his head in agreement. He, Dagon, and Alberto walk inside the ship. TinkerBell stands back as the ship takes off.

 (Ten minutes later.)

 “Bran, do you know who did knock us off course?” asks Dagon. Bran nods his head no. “No, it could be a space rock or space junk that did that. Why don’t you and Alberto get cleaned up and get some sleep.” Replies Bran. Alberto nods his head in agreement and heads back to the quarters to get cleaned up and head to bed. Dagon follows suit. Bran hears them sleeping. Bran hums a tune. He is checking the chart to make sure he can get back on course.

 (Next morning.)

 Dagon comes to the cockpit and is surprised to see Bran still at the controls. “You didn’t sleep?” Asks Dagon, a bit surprised. Bran turns around. “I took some short naps. I see you found the clothes.” Said Bran. Dagon looks at himself. “Yes, my other ones got too dirty and worn out.” Said Dagon. Bran smiles. “Help yourself to the food. Another few hours or more, we will be arriving at Twilight.” Said Bran as he checks the chart again. Dagon leaves the cockpit and finds the kitchen. Few minutes later, Alberto joins him.

 “I wonder how long before we reach Twilight?” asks Alberto as he helps himself to the food. Dagon looks up to his friend. “Bran said a few hours or more.” Said Dagon as he watches Alberto get something to eat. “I hope we won’t run into any more problems now.” Said Alberto. Dagon nods his head in agreement. Bran joins them; he sits down. “It won’t be that long before we reach Twilight.” Said Bran as he helps himself to the food.

 “I am not too sure what to expect once we arrive there?” ask Dagon, a bit worried. Bran looks at him and replies, “Yes, it will be different than Myst. It will take time to get used to it. There are books here about Twilight. I suggest you both read them to get a better idea. I am not supposed to say any more until we reach Twilight.”  Both Dagon and Alberto nod their heads in agreement. They clean up their mess, then head towards the sitting area and grab the books.

 (Three Hours later.)

 Suddenly the ship was starting to lose control. Both Dagon and Alberto run towards the cockpit. “What is happening?” Asks Dagon as he tries to stand still. “I think the repairs we did are not holding anymore.” Said Bran as he tries to keep control of the ship. Alberto notices the glow on Dagon’s necklace. “Dagon looks at your necklace.” Asks Alberto. Dagon looks at his necklace. “Bran I think my necklace is glowing again.” Said Dagon. Bran takes a quick look at Dagon.

 “It feels the danger; plus, it knows we are so close to Twilight.” Dagon, I want you to say these words” Explained Bran as he says the words to Dagon. Dagon nods his head yes and repeats the words that Bran told him. There was a glow around Dagon. Bran notices the glow. “Dagon concrete You can tell the necklace to power.” Bran said. Dagon only can nod his head in agreement. Alberto notices the glow moving around the ship.

 “How long can he hold that up?” asks Alberto as he still continues watching. Bran looks at Dagon. “I have no idea.” We are close to Twilight now. Alberto keeps an eye on Dagon. ““I need to work the controls still.” Said Bran.  “Ok, I hope this works.” Said Alberto.  “Me too. We need to be quiet so Dagon can hold onto the glow.” Said Bran.

 (Hour Later.)

 “I can’t hold this much longer.” Said Dagon as he tries to keep it up. Bran looks over at Dagon. “You must,” Dagon, We are already there. I need to contact them, and they can use the tractor beam on us.” Said Bran as he goes back to the controls and to the radio. “I know you can do it, Dagon.” Said Alberto cheering his friend on. Dagon closes his eyes and struggles hard to keep the glow going.

 Suddenly there was another light that grabbed the ship. “Dagon you can relax now. It is the tractor beam pulling us in.” Said Bran. Dagon relaxes and collapses from the effort. Alberto went to Dagon. “Are you OK?” Alberto asks, a bit worried. “Just a bit worn out. I’m not used to that.” Said Dagon, a bit tired. Alberto helps Dagon to sit in a chair. “How long can they hold us up here?” asks Alberto as he looks outside. “They are pulling us in. The engines just died on us.” Replies Bran.

 (Two hours later, they are in the spaceport on Twilight.)

 Both Dagon and Alberto were surprised at the spaceport. “Follow me, please.” Said Bran as he leads the way. Both Alberto and Dagon follow Bran. “I sure I’ll get lost in here.” Said Alberto as he looks around the place. Dagon only nods his head in agreement. After a few minutes, they arrive at their destination. “Please wait here. I will tell them you are here, Dagon.” Said Bran as he enters the room. Both Dagon and Alberto wait outside.

 Few minutes later, Bran returns to them and motions them to follow him in. Dagon and Alberto walk in and look around the room. Bran takes the lead again, they both follow him to the throne room. Dagon sees the two people sitting. He is wondering if these are his real parents. “These are King Arthur and Queen Daphne.” Said Bran. King Arthur came down from his chair and walked towards Dagon. “I’m glad you’re home, my son.” I know it will be hard for you right now. It will feel strange for awhile.” Said King Arthur. Dagon was still in shock, finding out where he came from. Bran notices how hard it is for Dagon. “This is his friend, Alberto. They grew up together on Myst.” Said Bran. Queen Daphne comes toward them. “Nice to meet you. It probably helps Dagon here as well.” Said Queen Daphne.

 “I still have so many questions.” Said Dagon finally, finding his voice. “It will be answered for you. Not right now, you must rest, then we can talk about that later.” Said King Arthur. Dagon nods his head in agreement. “I will show them to their room.” Said Bran. Queen Daphne nods her head in agreement. Bran leads them to their quarters.
