Rox's
"Malapit na tayo sa intersection ng ilog!" Saad ko matapos ubusin ang baon naming tinapay.
"They said Jin river is a manmade route for the water to reach every clan by the Jin himself!" Shien
Jin... The Jin clan's first ancestors, a very powerful swordsman!
"He's an immortal that once visited here right?"
"Oo, he's the one who established the Jin Clan to help him defeat the Demon lord in rampage in their time!" Shien
"That immortal is powerful, akalain mong kaya niyang baguhin ang landscape gamit lamang ang kaniyang espad-"
*Kaboogsh*
*Splash*
"A battle is happening up ahead!" Shien
I used my Drift so our boat could reach faster where that explosion happened, Shien wore my gift as we ready ourselves. My spear is too far away from us, I secretly took it with me!
"1st brother?!" Shien stated as we arrived at the battlefield.
"Good! You came to help me, kill that Zen lice!" Sigaw ng 1st Shou.
So he's Shien's brother... Is that kuya?!
"Kuya?" Sigaw ko sa nakatayo sa ere, medyo malayo mula saamin.
He's standing on his floating Spear while holding most of his bagged stuffs, where is his boat?
"Rox stay back!" He shouted as debris of woods that looked like a bunch of boat started crossing my boat.
Broken boats followed the stream of the river, tons of bodies are being rescued by the ShouMe and pulling them off the water.
"Another Zen, Shien! Kill that person beside you!" Sigaw ng 1st Shou na puno ng authority.
"At bakit naman niya gagawin iyon? Sino ka ba at ano bang nangyari dito?!" Sigaw ko pabalik.
I patted Shien's shoulder and smiled at his worried face, telling him that I already got this!
"People that came from a weak clan should never speak up to me! Mere healing clan that dared going against me doesn't deserved to live for another da-" 1st Shou
"Sino bang nauna? Ako ba?" Xian
Hindi ko na pinagsalita pa ang 1st Shou, I stepped into the water and walked towards where his boat is.
"Let's settle this with your clan leader or you will arrived back to your home wet and naked!" I faced him eye to eye.
"Huh? You ca-" I didn't let him finnish, I rolled my finger.
*Splash*
His boat rotated and he fell into the cold river,
I then raised my hand.
"Ahh! Sto- stop!" He shouted as I maked him levitated out of the water.
I rolled over his boat and remove all the water in it and threw him in it.
"Let's go!" Yaya ko kay kuya at Shien.
Sumakay na muli ako sa aming bangka, pati si kuya at kinamusta siya habang papasok na kami sa ShouSan. 1st Shou remained silent as he stare his cursing eyes into me.
"Good day miss and mister ShouLe, first we came here to send this share for the Shou clan who helped us at our Beast Hunting. Maraming salamat po sa inyong pinadalang tulong!" Nag bow ako as soon as we arrived in their Throne room (Meeting hall).
"2nd Zen, you're clan is always welcome!" Ngiti ng ShouLe as miss ShouLe and some of their servants carried out the boxes of gold coins.
"I can see my useless son did became useful this time!" I'm shocked sa aking narinig mula kay miss ShouLe.
So this is how they treat Shien? No wonder that kid is too shy and silent-
"And the second is?" ShouLe
"Our 1st Zen and your 1st Shou had a little bit of a fight earlier, nakasalubong namin sa intersection ng Jin river. My brother's boat is nowhere to be found and he had a little bit of injuries because of your son... I believe that 1st Shou is the first one to-"
"And what is your proof? Ma, pa? That 1st Zen attacked us first! Pauwi na kami ng biglang may Spear na umataki sa mga bangka namin, Zens should pay for the damage they did to u-" 1st Shou entered the room.
"And how the fuck my brother would attack you first in the first place?! I know him, and he would never resort to any violence if you didn't do anything against him! Am I right? Did you bullied him back at JinLe?" Sunod sunod kong saad ng may hinahon.
"Eh-..." 1st Shou
"Son? Go back to your house, let us handle thi-" ShouLe
"No! You're not gonna punish that Zen lice! I will not leave here until you kill that bastar-" 1st Shou
"Call him that again and you'll find out what Zen clan is capable of!" I shouted as my feet lift off the ground.
I lost my cool!
"Se- see ma, pa? Zens are crazy, they will definitely wants to kill me... Our only clan inheritor!" 1st Shou
"Rox? Calm down, mind your manners or your brother Xian might get hurt outside!" Bulong ni Shien na ikinababa ko naman kaagad.
I almost forgot that brother Xian is outside with tons of ShouMe!
"Tha- thanks!" Baling ko sa kaniya.
I'm confused about what 1st Shou said but I kept my mouth closed. Shien is here, the second born. Do they hate Shien that much? Why?
"Ahem... We'll discuss this when we visit ZenSan next wee-" ShouLe
"Pa?! Are you seriou-" 1st Shou
"Shut up and go back to your house!" Miss ShouLe
Dali dali namang lumabas ang 1st Shou, sinagi niya ako sa siko bago tuluyang umalis.
"Zen clan's Nature is really interesting, your levitating Craft is impressive. Don't worry you and your brother can now go home, we'll discuss this matter with mister and miss ZenLe when we go there. So don't overthink about this anymore, please let us be the one who will tell your parents okay?" Miss ShouLe
Tumango naman ako na ikinangiti niya, I felt weird from her stare and smile but I just shrugged it off as I bowed and left the room.
"Take care and we will see each other soon okay?" Pat ko sa ulo ni Shien.
"Uhm..." Shien
"It's okay, huwag mo nang isipin pa, see you next week?" Nginitian ko siya para mag enlighten ang kaniyang pakiramdam bago kami nagpaalam at umalis na.
"Anong sabi?" Saad ng kuya na pinaglalaruan ang kaniyang Spear sa likuran ng bangka.
Medyo nakalayo layo na kami, ang bungad ng ShouSan ay ang mismong Clan habang ang capital naman ay nasa likuran nila.
"They said that they will discuss it to our parents next week so we should not talk about it for the meantime."
Naaninag ko naman sa hindi kalayuan ang aking Spear, sinalo ko ito at pinaikot ikot rin sa aking daliri.
"Huh? They let us-" Xian
"I know weird, and shh because someone is following us from that jungle!" Lingon ko sa aming kanan kung nasaan ang Wild area forrest.
"It's your friend, he's been following us since we left." Xian
"Oh? Kapit!"
Dali dali namang pinaglaho ni kuya ang kaniyag Spear at humiga sa bangka.
"Drift!" I mumbled as our boat began to move forward in high speed.
In just a few seconds we already reached the mainstream of the river and turned right.
I deactivated Drift so I can remove all of these debris that their battle left.
"I didn't know you're such a hot headed." Tawa ko kay kuya habang pinapalutang papuntang lupa ang mga kahoy sa tubig.
"Eh? Ikaw lang ba pwedeng magwala? Sinira nila ang kaisa isa kong bangka eh, gusto ko lang naman mauna nang umuwi at miss na kita tapos napagtripan pa ak-" Xian
"Ahh so ako pa dinahilan mo? Sabihin mo lang na snobber ka kase!" Binatukan naman ako nito.
"Aray! Akala ko nakahiga ka?" Sigaw ko sa kaniya sabay tuktok ng kahoy sa ulo niya.
"Aray! Mabo bobo naman ako nito, batok lang huwag hambalos!" Xian
"Deserve mo!" Tawa ko sabay lingon sa kanan.
"He caught up!" Xian
"Bye!" I mouthed sa taong nakatago sa isang puno sa di kalayuan bago kami mawala sa kaniyang paningin.
I used my full Boost and Drift, I can say I'm quite competitive. He caught up so I double the game, plus he doesn't need to follow us all the way back sa ZenSan!
"Huy?! Muntik na akong mawala, mahulog, mamatay!"Xian
"Buo ka pa kaya okay lang!" Ngiti ko sa kaniya bago pinabagalan ang bangka, we almost travelled have the world... Joke, but we are almost home.
"Your Spear!" Saad ni kuya dahil naiwan duon ang nakalutang kong Spear.
"It'll catch up soon!" Sambit ko at nahiga sa kaniyang lap.
"Pagod ka na, matulog ka na muna para mabawi mo ang iyo...." Hindi ka palang tapos kuya nakatulog na ako kaagad!...

"What's your plan?"
"Soon... you'll know!"
"I don't want to be involved!"
"Then don't, we don't need you!"
"Stop these!"
"Never."
"Then I'll quit!"
"Go!"
"Just don't ever come back."
"Have you ever loved me?"
"No..."
"Not even the slightest?"
"Even a drop of love... There is none!"
"Huh?"
"Procede to normal and then I'll sa-"
"You guys never learned, all of you may rot in hell!"
"We love that!".....
