suppose to do” said Enki.
“Sit here and do some target practice” whispered Nikkla laughing quietly.

Nikkla stands up and grabs her bow and lays on the flat part and hangs her arms and bow over the side and whistles and drops a small tree branch. Then she reaches back really fast grabs three arrows and shoots three of the beasts when they ran out right in the head.

“How did you do that” whispered Enki while lying down next to her.
“Years of practice and having no fear of what will happen after I do it” whispered Nikkla.
“Well you stick with the air attacks and I will do the ground attacks” said Enki.
“I’d rather you use a bow than your sword” said Nikkla Frowning.
“I have my magic to protect me thought” said Enki while holding a fireball in his hand.
“Yeah until they don’t want you to use your magic then you won’t have it to protect you” said Nikkla.
“They can’t stop me from using my magic” said Enki shooting the fire ball at one of the beast it ran in circles screaming then dropped.”
“Sure they can they have fae working for them they can do the same things you can” said Nikkla Frowning.
“That’s impossible no fae would work for them” said Enki.
“Well its true they do and the magic works on them too trust me” said Nikkla.
“They must be really strong fae because I haven’t even been able to master that yet” said Enki Frowning.
“You will one day trust me” whispered Nikkla while shooting another beast that was behind a tree.
“As long as you are there when I do” whispered Enki really quiet.
“Can’t make any promises” whispered Nikkla standing up to grab another branch and dropped it.

Some more beasts ran out of places and Nikkla shot about 6 and Enki started about 3 on fire. Then they just sat there and looked at each other. Enki leaned in and kissed Nikkla, He leaned out and smiled then the kissing got wilder next thing Nikkla knew Enki was picking her up and was carrying her to her bed. Early the next morning Enki rolls over and sees that Nikkla is gone. He shoots up to see Nikkla sitting in a chair asleep. Enki slowly got up and picked her up and put her in the bed and lie next to her and fell back asleep.

“Wake up sleepy head” said Nikkla pushing Enki out of the bed.
“Hey uff, I thought you were supposed to wake people gently” said Enki sitting up.
“That’s most people not me and plus you have a visitor” said Nikkla smiling.
“Wait what, what do you mean” said Enki.
“What do you think I mean someone is here to see you” said Nikkla.
“Oh ok” said Enki.
“Hey Enki how’s it going” said Shoy smiling.
“Shoy how did you find me” said Enki.
“I didn’t find you I, I just woke up here” said Shoy.
“What the hell do you mean” said Enki looking between Shoy and Nikkla.
“I mean I woke up under this tree with my arms tied together same with my legs, that’s when I screamed and Nikkla came out of nowhere.

Enki took off running to go help whoever was in danger. He ran around a hut and saw his wife fighting two of the beasts off. Next thing he hears is two arrows wising past his head and they hit two of the beasts in the head and then two more wiz past his head and hit two more beasts that came out of nowhere. Then Nikkla jumps from the canopy and right behind Enki and knocks him out.
“Why did you knock him out and who the hell are you” said Inkkla.
“I’m Nikkla and you must be Enki’s wife nice to finally meet you but we have to go before they come back” said Nikkla.
“I’m not going with you” said Inkkla.
“Shoy come help me out here please” said Nikkla.
“Come on Inkkla if you want to live” said Shoy.
“Fine let’s go” said Inkkla.

Nikkla picked up Enki and jumped into the tree and disappeared.

“Shoy take her back to the tree I’ll meet you there later” said Nikkla.
“Will do” yelled Shoy.

Nikkla and Enki were sitting up in the canopy above the waterfall pond, with Enki still knocked out; Nikkla stands up and pushes him in the water then dives in after him.

“Hey what the heck” said Enki coming up from under the water, “Nikkla where the hell are you I know you are here somewhere” said Enki.
“Behind you” said Nikkla.

Enki turned around slowly and Nikkla was just floating there looking more pissed then ever.

“What did I do know” said Enki Frowning.
“Well what we did last night has a little to do with it and what you just did, picking your wife over the women you have know most of your wife, also you spent the night with me” said Nikkla.
“Well what do you want me to do just let them kill her I don’t want anything to happen to my baby” said Enki diving under.
“Wait a minute your what get back up here” said Nikkla grabbing Enki’s foot and pulled him back up, “ What do you mean by baby” said Nikkla.
“I mean my baby my wife is pregnant, I thought I told you” said Enki slowly swimming backwards.
“What are you doing” asked Nikkla.
“Getting out of your arms reach” said Enki.
“Fine and oh have fun getting back to the tree” said Nikkla.
“Nikkla wait please don’t go I’m sorry” said Enki.
“You could have told me thousands of times but no you didn’t and you are always claiming that you love me, I’m out of here” said Nikkla.
“Come oh Nikkla I’m sorry” said Enki reaching out really fast and grabbing her by the foot and pulling her into his arms and kissing her.
“Just because you know how to charm me doesn’t mean you are forgiven” said Nikkla with her mouth still on Enki’s.
“I am really good at charming everyone that I love, you are just the easiest to charm” said Enki, kissing her again then diving under and grabbing her foot and pulling her down with him.

Under the water Enki and Nikkla were swimming together kissing and smiling.

Back at the tree
“Who the hell lives here and why would they want to” said Inkkla.
“Its Nikkla’s place, it’s the only place that is safe so you are just going to have to deal with it” said Shoy.
“I still don’t have to like it” said Inkkla frowning.

"Hey we should head back to the tree" said Nikkla.
"Yeah I guess so" said Enki.
"Come on shes not going to do anything to you not in my tree anyway" said Nikkla smiling.
"She wouldn't do anything to me, shes my wife plus she is pregent" said Enki.
”You are such, I can’t even say it how can you go with her and be someone else that I don’t even know, then come back as if nothing happened” said Inkkla.
“What are you saying that I can’t even have a friend out of the village that u given to choose between you and someone I’ve known my whole life. Because if that it what you are saying I’m going to pick her because she needs my help right now more than ever, and I’m sorry that you don’t understand that” said Enki.
“I do understand it but there is any way you will come back to me” said Inkkla Frowning.
“I’ll come back to get my baby soon but I will not stay with you I’m sorry, I love Nikkla” said Enki.

Nikkla jumps from the canopy smiling.

“Shoy, Inkkla your village is looking for you they are coming this way so you need to leave please” said Nikkla.
“Why can’t we stay” said Inkkla frowning.
“Because people think I am dead and for right now I’d like to keep it that way and also because if they know I’m alive I will be sent to be married” said Nikkla.
“That would be fine with me” said Inkkla smiling.
“You are such a bitch “said Nikkla moving toward Inkkla.

Inkkla slowly started to move backward and ran smack dab into Nikkla?

“How did you move that fast” Inkkla stammered.
“Years of practice and silence and I’m an elf” said Nikkla pulling her hair back.
Inkkla screamed so loud she pasted out Nikkla caught her before she fell picked her up in her arms and jumped off the platform and started to run in the direction of village Nikkla whistled loud enough for them to hear her and then jumped back up into the canopy tree and went home.

“What the hell was the where is Inkkla, Nikkla where is she” said Enki.
“Why do you care you said you loved me you need to choose now me or her and if its her then you and Shoy need to go but if its me Shoy still needs to leave so I can tell you that I am sorry in the right way instead of dropping out of a tree with your wife in my arms and giving her back to the person who really loves her and that person is behind you” said Nikkla.
“Whatever Shoy doesn’t love Inkkla they can barely be in the same area as each other let alone love each other” said Enki.
“You should ask him before you just guess about it” said Nikkla sitting down.
“Shoy is this true do you love Inkkla because if so I need to know so I can let her go without worrying about her” said Enki.
“Enki I love her so much and I’m sorry you had to find out this way” said Shoy.
“Man I am just glad that I don’t have to worry about her” said Enki.
“Alright Shoy you better hurry and catch up with your people” said Nikkla smiling.
“Thanks guys” said Shoy climbing down from the tree.

Enki walks over to Nikkla and gives her a hug and a kiss.


Chapter 3

The next morning Enki rolls over to see Nikkla lying of the floor with her bow looking over the edge of the platform.

“Nikkla what are you doing” whispered Enki slowly getting up.
“I’m scoping out some of the beasts” whispered Nikkla looking over her shoulder smiling.
“Why I thought they left” whispered Enki.
“Enki I’m going to tell you something they never leave” said Nikkla.

Nikkla got up and jumped out of the tree she landed with a soft thump and started to run, with Enki still in the tree watching her go. Enki jumped up into the canopy and took the trees to follow Nikkla. When he finally caught up with her to see she was walking through burnt ruble, when he got a closer look he saw it looked like a house.

“Enki I know you up in that tree you can come down its fine” said Nikkla.
“How did you know” said Enki jumping down.
