"No it's not I am going to one of the next guardians of the shield." Allen answered looking serious. "How did you fid out that?"
Andrew asked.

"The first time I head the call. It was weak but I could hear it so I
asked my father and he told me that if I did hear it then I am to be one of the next people who guard it." Allen answered. With that Andrew went back to Shield Tower.

Back at Shield Tower..... Andrew returns just in time to help his brother and sister-in-law hold up the shield aginst a magical attcker that they could not see, but could feel. Andrew closed his eyes and opened his minds eye and looked down to the main gate and saw the ugliest magical creature he'd ever seen it had the body of a bear, the head of a wolf, and the tail and feet of a cheeta.

The creature had a weird midnight blue glow surrounding it Andrews heart jumped as he saw the glow grow brighter as the thing got closer to the shield. "Domanic get me my bow and mage-arrows the ones that tranquilize anything it hits for weeks on end." Domanic did so, and Andrew took aim like only he and any other elf could. The arrow flew strait, and true. Hit it's target in the neck were it would immediately take affect. The creature hit the ground with a groan then to Andrews astonishment began to shimmer and change into a human figure that Andrew could not tell if it was male or female, but had an odd feeling he knew what the person was after. The key the person who ever they are was sent here by someone to retreive it. "Domanic I am going down there to find out more about this person and who sent them I need you to stay here a keep guard if it moves freez it." Andrew said. "But I can't I promised." Domanic started. "Just do it just this one last time please." Andrew asked. Andrew turned toward the window. "Infinto" He murmured. He jumped out the window and glided safetly to the ground. As Andrew got closer he began to notice that the person-creature was a beautiful women that lookes exactly like his twin sister that he got seperated from at birth, and has only seen pictures of. As Andrew got closer he saw that she was indeed his sister because when he got close enough to feel her energy he knew right away that it was his sister. Andrew bent down to carefully pick up his sister, and take her into Shield Tower. When he touched her his mind was flooded with memories.
