When the sun burst out, the four left the inn to continue their journey. Last night, they had agreed to go to Niphan to surrender Eurie to his lost family, and now, they are almost halfway there.
Eurie was mostly silent along the journey. She is trying to imagine her expectations, what will the people waiting for her look like? who are they to Elliot? will they be kind? will she remember them? She was also thinking carefully about the words she should say to these people who had waited for her for an entire thirteen years. She was nervous. She was asking herself about the negative things that might happen.
What if these bounty hunters, as they called themselves, were wrong? What if she was not really the Elliot Cezanne they were looking for? What if they got angry and then threw her in a dungeon just like cliché medieval movies? What if those people were still holding a grudge against her family and they tried to kill her?
It was like all the what-ifs were to
"Oh dear, this can't be happening?!" Jace whispered under his breath. It was minutes ago when the two boys realized that the lady they were traveling with was missing. And those minutes were full of Jace cursing over and over again about how a failure they were to let this happen. They already left the inn and walked to the train station, both unsure of where to go and where to look for Eurie. Jace was asking every people on his way if they had seen Eurie, hoping she just woke up early, strolled down for fresh air, and got confused about the way back to the inn. Kaizer, on the other hand, was just quiet. He clearly didn't like what was happening; he even left the breakfast in the inn, untouched, very unusual. Even playful, Kaizer is a man of his word. He was raised strong as a prospective emperor of the biggest country in Zaenosh - of course, taking responsibility is his life motto. Responsibility - he was thinking about Uncle Sid, the helpful man from the world he didn't know, wh
Despite the sunless day, the sky was still bright for the light was being reflected by the white coating of the environment. But not warm for the village was covered with snow. All is white. Even the trees, the houses, cottages and carriages were capped with snow – like some ice cream dessert – and the sky was also white filled with winter clouds.The houses' chimneys were like forever puking white smoke in the air; at least they made the whole place warmer in sight. The breeze was not as cold as it had been days ago when a snowstorm visited the village. It was a lot warmer but it was never been advisable to go outside naked or you would freeze in merely a minute.People were starting to work outside. Some were fixing their carriages sunk in thick snow blankets. Some were opening their little stores of freshly baked breads. There were men of bulky bodies with big alive salmon on their shoulders talking to their fellow neighbors about the frozen lake they ca
Absent-mindedly, Eurie sat at her seat – second from the last row – listening idly and obviously not comprehending the things their adviser was telling them. At least, it was not only Eurie but the whole class.The bald adviser was an old, gay English teacher. He looked clumsy and fragile but actually a tennis monster inside the court. The kind of teacher who brought frilled fans even though the classroom was air-conditioned; just to complete the outfit of the day. His slow and regal way of talking made his class boring – to the point that some got into sleep while in his class.Just like Eurie."Ms. Sanchez!" Eurie almost fell when she heard her name called. She jolted from her seat and faced the adviser that was eyeing her that moment. His fan was on her chest. He was gawking to Eurie behind his red thick eyeglasses."Yes Sir! I-I mean Mr. Mantala," Eurie stuttered realizing how epic it was to shout
(Author's Note: Characters in Zaenosh speak different language, I translated directly. LOL)Light-years away from Eurie's room on Earth was a bright galaxy of Kinsmoth where *Cheus System owned a planet called Zaenosh, the fifth planet; on it was *West Water, the smallest continent where Manton was stated. Manton was on the northeast part of West Water and the smallest landlocked country on Zaenosh. Manton only had four provinces and a city. The city was Aioro and in one of its bustling street were two young men moving swiftly from the crowd. Each was wearing coat which designs were prominent only on Zaenosh. Their backs were equipped with perilous weapons: two silver firearms for Jace and a black stout sword for Kaizer."Mister! You look so freezing cold! Try this blue potion I personally made, it will warm you....""This city is popular for my invisible ink...""Buy one and you'll take three of my
"He's here."From the narrow hallways, Jace led Kaizer to the said room where their target, Bum Pan, resided. As they stared at the door, sweet giggles were heard followed by a voracious laugh. Jace squirted as he heard it. He couldn't imagine what they were doing. Kaizer knotted his brows and without a warning knocked to the door. At first try, no one responded but giggles were stopped. Kaizer tried it again, and not a minute after an ugly face popped."I'm not in servi---" he was cut when Kaizer kicked him on the face, making him fly to the opposite side of the room. The door swung open but when the two men completely entered it collapsed by itself."Aaahhh!!!" Three women barely dressed shouted in horror. They ran out of the room helplessly covering their cornsilk naked skin. They were natives of this land, working to entertain. Jace, the gentle man, tried to calm them down but they just brushed through him s
'Tok! Tok! Tok!'The door creaked open."Eurie?" Uncle Sid asked as he buzzed off his maximum secret-mode room."Hi!" "What- stay out of here!" Uncle Sid almost shouted. He pulled Eurie out of his room's door and to the stairs.Eurie was really surprised to his Uncle's reaction. Like what she always said, expect the weirdest for Uncle Sid. If only her Uncle Sid knew that she knew what he was hiding. Probably it was pornographic videos and posters of naked women. On her psychology class, single men who were having a hard time to get a girlfriend were at high risk of doing sexual activities by themselves. Uncle Sid was a candidate. But, Eurie thought, keeping it a secret like this didn't make sense. Uncle Sid was indeed a weirdo.When the handsome-faced man was calm he asked Eurie, and in an unexpectedly super calm voice. How fast could this man switch himself from beast-mode to cool-mode
Kaizer was quite disappointed by the enormous ruined coliseum he entered. It was old and weak and he couldn't imagine it was a hideout of someone in the caliber of Saturnio. He expected some class since Saturnio was once a big name on his country. The old mage had worked once for his grandfather, that was why he knew him. But, Saturnio wasn't fit to be a forever servant. Kaizer's grandfather and Saturnio were so much alike. They were both evil and greedy of power and so they ended up fighting each other for that.One reason why Kaizer picked this mission was because he too was quite curious of Saturnio’s new lord. He wanted to know, why Saturnio turned his back to Zaenosh’s most powerful empire and went here to work for another person. He couldn’t think of any answers, but whatever it is, he knew very well that it wasn’t some child’s play. ‘I smell challenge,’ he said to himself.---
"AAAAHHH!!!" Eurie ran for her life. She knew that the man was into her. He was naked for Pete's sake! While running, news of brutal rape, cannibalism with rape and psychotic killing with rape flashed into Eurie's mind. She didn't stop screaming as she ran down the hill. She was also searching for people to call for help in the place. Unluckily, it was Sunday, even the caretakers were at their houses, resting or maybe attending their church.The man was screaming too to her. But she couldn't hear clearly any of the things he said. Howbeit, Eurie never stopped screaming while running. She hated herself for not being an athlete because she could hear the man's shouts getting nearer and louder just like the beat of her heart."Waaaaahh!!! Pleaseee!!! Leaveee. Meee. Alone!!!" Eurie managed to scream as she panted horrifyingly.Run. Run. Run.Stumbled.Her legs went weak and she stumbled. She almost cried as she
