Chapter 14 - Loosen, Sturdy

Chapter 14 - Loosen, Sturdy
======================

   Today, I found an ancient scroll. Hidden in a cave. Guarded by old skeletal warriors, which came from different clans.

   The sun passes the vertice of Earth. Shows afternoon and almostly evening. My time for training is almost there. But, I need to settle my curiousity first. My curiousity about the scroll.

   I untie the scroll. I put the star emblem thread besides the scroll. Open it slowly. I see the arch of the scroll.

   An ancient writings on the top part of the scroll. Hard to read -since I didn't learn about it-. In the middle of the scroll, there are seven images.

the first image shows a skull.
The second image shows a cresent moon.
The third one shows a sun.
The fourth shows a meteor.
The fifth image represents a dragon.
The sixth image is a star.

And the seventh, the largest image among them.

Shows a dragon claw. There's a crystall ball -I think- in the dragon's claw. It's look like an ancient weapon. A scepter.

Probably, this is the legendary weapon that hidden for 500 years.

This must be The Dragon Claw Scepter.

   I assemble the medallion. I place each medallion in each image that resembles them.

   "Let's hoping this will work.", I say to myself. Wiping my sweat on my forehead. I place the last piece of medallion in its place.

Shines. Glows. Lights everywhere in my cabin.

My eyes couldn't see anything. Blinded by the shines of the scroll. Something is happening.

The light disappear after few moments. I open my eyes. I discover something on my table. The scroll has disappear, instead a scepter on it.

THE SAME SCEPTER AS IN THE SCROLL ON MY TABLE.

I just can't believe it. I casted the legendary weapon. Heh.

Knock knock!

   Someone's at the door. Gotta hide this thing. I grab it and put it under my bed. Then, I head to the door. Relax and calm, I open the door.

   "Something happen, Xi?", Puxx suddenly enters my cabin. Seeking something.
   "Nothing. Why ask?", I lie. She stares at me as I sit on my bed, covering the scepter.
   "I thought I saw a light coming from your cabin. So, I came here as fast as I can.", she explains.
   "Probably, your eyes lied. Nothing actually happen.", I just smile.
   "You sure?", she asks as if I am lying. Well, I am.
   "Yup.", I reply with a smile. I stand up.
   "Come, let's go for our training.", she continues. She has this suspicious glance at me. I start to get nervous, but I manage to calm myself.

I can't let anybody know bout this.

   "Ok, I'll get my sword.", I reply. She leaves me alone in cabin. I sigh relief. I walk to my room. Staring at my swords.

Cutlass, long sword, gladius, short sword, scimitar.

Heh, which one?

   "Come on, Xi.", Puxx shouts from outside.
   "Coming.", I reply. Without thinking, I grab my long sword and head outside.

...soon

   "Ok Xi. Today, I'm gonna teach you about loosen and sturdy."
   "What's that?"
   "A technique that used in throwing weapons."
   "Sounds cool!"
   "First, convince your enemy's weakness."

Puxx hold her sword diagonally, the point of the sword stabs the earth.
She closes her eyes. I observe full of attention.

   "Second, loosen your arm."

I can see. Her arm becomes limply. Weaken.

   "Focus on your opponent's weakness."

She's silent.

   "When you're convinced, twist your shoulder. Open your eyes. Sturdy your arm and release."

She twist her shoulder. Open her eyes and throw the sword.

The sword flies faster than arrow. Due to its mass and the velocity. It spins in the air. Stabs a tree. Deep.

   "Wow.", I amaze. She just smiles. "I see. Now, teach me about talking to girls."

   "You're so naive, Xi"
   "And why is that?"

She smiles.

Chapter 13 - The Scroll

Chapter 13 - The Scroll
===================

   Today, I'd learnt few tactics and technics in swords combat. I able to swift the sword faster, stronger. I able to stab an enemy through their bone. Thanks to Elisia.

   Now, I need to find Puxx. I want her to teach me more.

   I walk into the market. Crowded. People buying groceries during weekend. Normal.

   My eyes still hunting the white pony-tail hair girl. I seek from each store and table.

   Ah, my expectation is correct. There she is. Buying vegetables. I march to her.

   "Hey Puxx.", I greet her. She notices me and smiles.
   "Hi Xi.", she greets back.
   "Hey, lemme help you." Luring both my hands at her. She smiles.
   "Thank you." She gives me the groceries. I hold them tightly.
   "No problem."
   "What's on your mind, seeking me this morning?"
   "I want you to teach me more."
   "More? About what?"
   "You know, swords combat.."
   "Oh."

I move slowly to her. I whisper,

   "And I want you to teach me, how to talk to girls."

She seems surprised. She stares at me as if I'm joking. Then, she smiles again.

   "Sure, why not?"
   "Awesome!!"
   "We'll start by this evening. Meet me at Lost Lagoon."
   "Ok."

Oh right!

   "Puxx.."
   "Hmm?"
   "I'm sorry for yesterday?"
   "Sorry? For what?"
   "I made you depressed."
   "Oh, it's not your fault."

Her emotion changes. Depressed.

   "See! I did it again. I'm sorry."
   "No, it's not your fault, Xi."
   "Then why are you depressed?"
   "I don't want to talk about it."
   "Why?"
   "Never mind bout it."

We reach her cabin. I give her the veggies. She thanks me and leave me. All alone.

So, I decided to spend my time, walking in the forest. I'm onguard -as I already learned enough from Elisia- for enemies approaching. I creep slowly in the fogs. I can't see anything in the distance.

   Then, I approach a cave. What is this?

   Inside it, there's nothing. Skeletons, old swords, bucklers, flags. The flags I can recognize each of them. Coyote tells me. There's EwH, RA, BA, TQA. All of them are shredded into pieces.

  At the end of cave, I see a chest. An old chest. It creeps me out.

   I walk to it closer, slower. Aware of the surrounds.

I reach the chest. Nothing happen. Yet. There's a script on the chest. It says,

   "SHOULD OPEN THUS THE CHOSEN ONE RISES TO SMITE THE GOD OF DRAGONS"

I don't understand. I open the chest up.

   "Fuhh, damn old chest. This thing must be 500 years old.", I mumble as I wipe the dirt from the chest.

Inside it, there lies a scroll. It's blue in color. A piece of thread tied around the scroll. A star emblem tied at the middle of the scroll.

   I grab the scroll to look closer.

Cling! Clang!

   A falling sounds. I look inside the chest. I'm sure it comes from inside.

   There's six medallion, scatter in the chest.

One of it has skull.
One of it has dragon.
One of it has moon.
One of it has meteor.
One of it has star.
One of it has sun.

   Curious. Very curious.

I take every medallion and put them in a sack. Tied it at my belt, around my waist.

   I walk back to my cabin. Full of question. I know, something isn't right.

What is this scroll?

Chapter 12 - Elisia

Chapter 12 - Elisia
===============

   Today, I meet Binkie, Lieutanant of COL. He's a friendly person.

   We - Puxx and I- walk together. Turning our head left and right. Seeking a girl named Elisia.

   My glace catch Puxx's emotion. She looks depressed. I don't know what I did. I try to calm her.

   "Hey Puxx."
   "Yea?"
   "You're alright?"
   "I'm fine."
   "Lies."
   "What?"
   "Puxx, I have an ability to discover people's emotion. I can see yours, too. You look depressed."
   "Yea. I am."
   "Why?"
   "It's because...."

"Hey Puxx!", a voice interrupts our chatting.

It's a girl. White armored. Brunette with a pony-tail. Shorter few centimeter than mine. Lapis lazulli blue eyes. Her light red lips. She's pretty.

   "Hi, El.", Puxx replies. I stand still, paralyzed due too surprised.

This pretty girl's Elisia?!?! SERIOUSLY, WHY COL HAS TOO MANY BEAUTIFUL BRUTE STRENGTH!?!?

   "Xi? XiStarry? Helllooo..", Puxx calling my name, waving at my face. I realize. I shake my head.
   "Yea?", I reply her calls.
   "This is Elisia, COL best fighter. El, this is XiStarry."
   "Pleasure meeting with you, Elisia.", I say, luring my hand to shake.
   "Pleasure is all mine.", she shakes my hand. So small and soft. Reminds me of Grace.

Grace.. I wondering about you.

   "El, Xi want to learn and train swordsmanship with you. Can you train him?", Puxx talks to Elisia. She nods.
   "Sure, why not? I got nothing to do today. At least, I got a work.", she replies while smiling at me. I smile back.
   "Well then, I leave Xi to you.", Puxx continues. Before she leaves, I grab her hand. She stares at me. I glare at her.

   "After this, I wan you to teach me about how to fight.", I whisper. She just stares. "And I want you to teach me about how to talk to girls."

I release her hand. She continues walking.

   "What did you say to her?", Elisia asks me.
   "Something between us.", I answer.
   "I see. So, Xi, where shall we learn?"
   "I don't know. It's up to you."
   "Come, let's go to somewhere much private."
   "Ok then."

...soon

   "Here we are.", Elisia stops walking. We reach at a stonehenge. I perplex as she starts unsheaths her long sword.
   "Is this your private place?", I question her. She just smile.
   "Yes. This place called Stone Circle. This place where many legendary warriors get killed by the God of The Dragons, Bane. No one can kill Bane as it has the power of the God. The legendary says, 'Only the chosen will rises and removes Bane with Dragon Claw Scepter'.", she explains. I just stand still, holding my short sword. Amazed of the story. But there's a question.

   "If no one able to kill Bane, where is it gone to?", I ask her. She silence. Her smile fades from her face slowly.

   "Never mind bout it. Let's start our training."

Then, Elisia remain silent until dusk.

Chapter 11 - Please Don't....

Chapter 11 - Please Don't...
===============

   Today, I've changed. I become tougher than before. I look into the mirror. Yes, I do change. I see muscular deltoid, biceps, triceps, hamstring. My body gains four packs -need to work out more- I think.

   I get out from my cabin. March to a few cabins ahead, seeking for Puxx's. I need her help.

Ah, there it is. Cabin 56, PuxxieGalore, written on the door. I knock.

   "Come in.", a voice replies my knocks. I smile. Holding the doorknob, I twist it slowly and open the door. I step inside.

   Eh? No one? I thought there's a voice asking me to come in. I monologue.

Slaam!

  The door slams, closing the door from ajar. I turn my head, looking at the door. Shiver flowing to my spine. My pupils become small. Shocking!

   A girl, half naked, wrapped in a towel. Standing behind the door. Her left on the door, as she closes it. Her white hair flips. Gray eyes staring at mine. Her small pink lips carve a small smile. I know this girl.

Puxx.

   She comes closer. Closer. I couldn't move. I'm paralyzed by her glares. I hope the towel is tight enough. Exposes her beautifully shaped body.
  
   She comes at me, slowly. Her lips touch my earlobe. She whisper;

   "How dare you come into a frail maiden room. What's worst is she's wrapped in a towel." I start to quiver. My hands shake, for no reason. "You know the consequences, right?"

   She pushes me onto a bed behind me. I land on it. Soft. Then, Puxx does the armlock -a basic tactics in hand-to-hand- on me. I'm frightened. She just stares at my eyes.

   My body. It's warm. I can't resist Puxx's beautiful body. Pushes against my body. I shut my eyes. Tightly.

Regretting for entering.

   "Please....don't....rape....me..",  I beg, weakly.
   "This shall be your consequence for entering a girl's room.", she replies.
   "Pleeeeease.... I beg you..", I beg her.
   "You need to learn about how to talk to girls.", she says, while leaning slowly on my body.

I can feel it. She presses her body against mine. So soft and warm. I'm starting to shiver - is this how people actually feel at their first time? - I think. I close my eyes tightly.

   Then, she stops. She leans back, releases both of my hands. I open my eyes slowly, to check out what is happening. She slowly stands up from the bed. She's laughing.

   "I like to see you nervous.", she continues laughing. I just exhale hardly, due to my nervous and fear. Maybe she's right. I do need to learn how to talk to girls.

   "Why did you come here, Xi?", Puxx asks me while smiling. I stand up, calming myself and say,

   "I need your help." My hands are still shaking.
   "What is it?"
   "Can you help me find Elisia?"
   She becomes silent for while. Her hands tie her hair up, turning it into a pony-tail.
   "What for?", she replies after a few moments of silence.
   "I want to train and learn about swordsmanship.", I answer her question. "People says she's the best warrior. Including you."
  She stares at my eyes with her gray eyes. I can see disapppointment in her eyes. I make her feel down.

   "Ok. Let me get ready, then I'll help you.", she replies. Forcing her mouth to smile. I can see it. She left into her a room.

What have I done?

I walk outside.

   "What are you doing inside?", a voice.
   "Huh? Excuse me?", I reply the man who asks me. I've never seen him before.
   "What are you doing in Puxx's cabin?", he asks again.
   "I... just want to meet her."
   "Oh, ok."
   "May I ask, who are you?"
   "Names Binkie. I'm Lieutanant of COL."
   "I'm XiStarry, Sergeant of COL. Pleasure meeting you.", luring my hand to shake.
   "Pleasure is mine.", he shakes.

Then, Puxx come out. She's fully dressed up.

   "Morning Puxx."
   "Oh. Morning Binkie.", she replies. She smiles.
   "How's it going?", he asks.
   "Fine. All good. Thank you.", she replies.
   "Well, then. I better go."
   "Ok. See ya later."

Binkie waves, smiles and leave both of us alone. A few moments of awkwardness...

Chapter 10 - Training

Chapter 10 - Training
==================

   Today, I've joined COL. I made a vow, in front of Julie, the leader of COL. She's a pig-tailed, brunette, middle aged girl. Sweet, kind and honest.

   I wake up. My wounds are getting better. I'm getting stronger. I sit on my bed. I see through the window. The sun lights up my room. I stand up. I can feel my strength recovering. I'm rejuvenated - there's no better cure than a good night sleep - I think. I grab a towel then head to the bathroom.

   Once I finish, I go to my room back. Surprisingly, Puxx is in my room. She's holding something. Like a cloth.

   "Here, wear this.", she says then throw the cloth at me. I take a good look at it. She just smiles and leaves.

I wear them. Tight. Especially, my chest, shoulder, crotch and knee. I need to get used to it.

   I put on my armor. Aqua colored. I look inside the mirror. I've changed. A new me.

I go outside. A man greets me.

   "Hey new kid. Name's Coyotekid.", the man greets.
   "Hi, I'm XiStarry.", I greet him back.
   "Welcome to COL.", he says, while sheathing his dagger.
   "May I ask you something?", I ask. He nods.

   "Where can I train?", I ask curiously.
   "Oh, you can go to the gym at the south-east for work out training. If you want to do hand-to-hand combat training, go to north-east. For a sword training, find Elisia.", he explains.
   "Thanks."
   "No problem."

I smile. Leave.

...soon

   I reach to the gym. Heh. Not so big at all. It looks just as normal as the next house.

   I step inside. I see people, working out. Some of them are so muscular, fancy with their biceps and all. Some of them are sure tough. What surprises me, there are even GIRLS in the gym!

   I walk inside, put off my boots. Step inside and everyone looks at me. Some of them are staring at me, some of them just smile.

   I smile and find myself a place to train, or should I say, to avoid making eye-contact with people in here. I start lifting off dumbbell-like weights when I hear a voice calling my name.

  "Xi?", a voice. I recognize this voice. When I turn my head, I know. A white pony-tail hair, sparkling gray eyes. Small, pink lips. She's a real beauty.

   "Puxx?", I ask while staring at a same-height girl, wearing a short pant and sports shirt -half body-.
   "What are you doing here?"
   "I want to train, at least that's what I think I'm doing. So that I can be useful to the COL clan, like everyone. Particularly like you."
   "Aww, that's so sweet."
   "What are you doing here, Puxx?"
   "I'm training of course"
   "Wow."
   "What?"
   "I'm amazed. People here really train hard, even girls. That's why they really look so strong such as yourself" I say with a smile.
   "Thank you"
   "Well, no problem"
   "Want to train with me?"
   "If you insist"

Then, the training is going well. I manage to lift up few dumbells, with different masses. I'm able to run faster. I can even climb up a hill.

It's because of Puxx.

Thank you for training me.

Chapter 9 - Julie

Chapter 9 - Julie
==============

   Today, I shall join COL which stands for Children Of Light.

   We - Puxxie and I, walk down the hill. Sliding. Even if it hurts my feet, I don't care. I am full of enthusiasm.

   By the time we reach the bottom, we approach a gate. The entrance. Then, I hear a voice shouting.

   "Who's there?"
   "It is I, PuxxieGalore. The Lieutanant Colonel of COL.", she replies to the voice.
   "I'm sorry, Puxx. For not recognizing you."
   "No harm done, Noein.", she says. I just stand still. Bearing the pain. Still unheal.

   "Open the gate!", the man called Noein orders the gatekeeper.

The gate opens. Slowly. Moving vertically.

I can see it.
I can see them.
The COL base.

It's like a town. Buildings, roads, trees. They're perfect.

I begin to like this place.
Reminds me of Akhnar.

Akhnar.

Grace. I miss you.

"Come in, Xi. You have to meet everyone.", Puxx invites me in. I think, I'll start calling her Puxx. Much easier.

 We step inside the town. They're beautiful. I can see people everywhere. They're in aqua color. Their armors, dresses, helmets. Some of them are in huge armors. Some of them has tigers, dragons and lions. Probably their pets. What a strange thing- having a lion as a pet- I think.

The COL members greet us. Everywhere.

They're good.
They're nice.
They're COL.

...soon

We reach to the tavern. I don't have any clue as to why we're here. So, I express them in words.

   "Hey Puxx."
   "Oh you start calling me Puxx."
   "Why? Is it wrong?"
   "No, it's good."
   "Great. I have a question for you."
   "Oh, what is it?"
   "What are we doing at tavern?"
   "We're meeting the leader, Xi."
   "Leader? At here? The tavern?"
   "Yup!"

My mind is about to blow. Why the nerves?

  We step inside. I can see people. They look like people with higher rankings, I think. I just stand still, and remain silent. Puxx pulls my hand and take me to the bar.

   "Hey Julie!", she calls a girl. Middle age. Two pig-tails. She's sitting at the bar. I can see a bottle of beer beside her. She turns her head. Her face is beautiful. Her green eyes. A brunette. Amazing.

   "Hey Puxxie.", she answers Puxx's call. Puxx pulls me closer to her. Then she pats my back and says,

   "This is my recruit, XiStarry.", she says. I look at her. She just smiles. "Xi, this is our leader, Julie."

Ha? What did she say? This girl is our leader? A GIRL????

Oh well, even if she is, I can do nothing to change.

   "Hi Julie. It's such a pleasure meeting you.", I bow. When I look up, I see her smiling.

   "So, you wanna be a member in COL, eh Xi?", she asks as if I am joking.
   "Yes. I would love to. If you could give me a chance."
   "Then, will you make a vow?"
   "Yes."
   "Spit it out."

I become silent for while. Everyone's looking at me. Including Puxx. She's the one who is glaring at me. The only one. Who glares at me.

Then, I shout it out loud.

   "I, XISTARRY, HEREBY TO MAKE A VOW, THAT I WILL BE A MEMBER OF COL. AND I WILL NEVER LEAVE COL UNTIL MY LAST BREATH AND LAST DRIP OF BLOOD."

Then, silent dead. The tavern.

   Julie, then. She stands by her chair. She puts her hand on my shoulder, then slowly moves to my bruised chest. She comes closer to me. Closer.

I can feel her lips touching my ear. I can hear her breathing. Very close. Then, she whispers,

   "Welcome to COL, Sergeant XiStarry."

She moves away from me. She smiles.
I look everyone. I see them clapping their hands.
I look at Puxx. She claps her hands too. She smiles at me. Happily.

I smile. Bow.

Thank you.

Julie.

Chapter 8 - COL Base

Chapter 8 - COL Base
=================

   Today, I'm moving from the cabin to somewere. It's called 'COL Base'. Perhaps it's a basement, maybe.

   Heh. I thought to myself. I walk with a walking stick. Slowly through the bushes. Puxxie leads me.

   "Come on slowpoke. It's 5 miles ahead.", she says to me. I glare at her.
   "You know my condition, right?", I provoke. She just smile.
   "Poor boy. Yet I still don't know your name, stranger.", she continues. I sigh.
   "Names XiStarry.", I answer.
   "Nice meeting with you, Xi.", she says. Smiling at me.
   "Hey can I ask you something?", I ask. She nods.

   We trekking the forest. Never thought the forest very deep. Probably it's an ancient forest.

   "How did you learn the sword skills?", I ask. Full of question.
   "Why ask?", she replies while looking at me. I can see her grey eyes. Her hair as white as snow. She's one of the magnificent beauties.
   "Just wondering. Because, you're a girl. Frail maiden. I never expect you're be a strong brute.", I answer her question.

She laugh.

   "You're funny, Xi. I only become a strong brute when I had to. Like a lion. They only become strong when enemies approach.", she replies while laughing silently.

   "And yet, you still don't answer my question.", I continue while climbing a hill. Rocky. Pretty hard, for an injured person like mine.

   "Hmm, I learn from Elisia, our best fighter in COL.", she answer.
   "How great is she?"
   "If you give me a diamond and a gold, I say she's diamond."
   "I see."
   "Wanna learn?"
   "Can I?
   "Of course!"
   "Under one condition."

Huh?

   "What condition are we talking?"
   "You must join COL first."
   "What must I do to join COL?"
   "Easy. Just vow to our leader. Then, you're COL member."
   "I see..."

Interesting. Indeed. COL.

Wait a second.

   "Hey Puxxie."
   "Hmmm?"
   "What is COL stands for?"
   "Children Of Light."
   "Oh.."

Then on the peak of the hill, I see it. A wall.

Wondering, what lies behind it.

"Welcome to COL base, XiStarry.", Puxxie smiles. I smile back.

I'm here.


COL base.

Chapter 7 - Cabin

Chapter 7 - Cabin
==============

   Today, I'm still alive. Thanks to PuxxieGalore, for saving my mere soul. I owe her my life, forever. SHE SAVED MY LIFE.

   "Where am I?", I ask to Puxxie. Curious.
   "We're at my cabin.", she answers. I nod.
   "You're so brave and confident.", I reply, staring into her grey eyes. Beautiful.
   "I wonder why?", she replies, looking at me.
   "You have the courage to bring a stranger to your house.", I answer. She smiles. "You're not afraid should a stranger do anything to you?".

She laughs. Then, stares at me. Like a hungry wolf hunting. It's frightening me.

   Suddenly, she gets on the bed. Placing her left hand at my right side. Lurking, slowly towards me. I start to shiver and quiver. She grins and glares at the same time.

   She comes closer. Closer. I don't know what to do.

   Then, she moves her head and lean to my face. Close. Our eyes very close. Our lips almost touch each other. Then, she whispers,

   "Instead of a stranger, maybe I am the one who will be doing the first moves."

Her left hand moving around my body. Touching everywhere. I'm sweating at my backside. Her right hand moving to my face. I shut my eyes.

   Is she going to kiss me?! What'll she do to me?!
   Then, I think, if this could pay my debt to her. Then, LET IT BE!

   For a sudden. She moves her head opposes mine. She moves backward. Lurking to the bedside.

 She's laughing.

   "You look cute when you're nervous. I like it.", she says, while looking at me. Laughing.

   "Apparently, it's a big deal, girl. You're dealing with your virginity.", I say while trying to calm. Relaxing.

She stands up. Clean the dirts on her dress. Then, she glance at me. I try to sit up.

   "Don't worry. I'll give you my virginity soon.", she says. Giggles. I'm blushing as hell.

   "Yeah right.", I provoke. My face turns red. Blood rushing very fast. Everywhere in my body.

   Then, she leaves the room. Leaving me alone. Finally.

   I get to the bedside. Lurking. Placing my feet on the woody floor. I try to stand up. Gaining my strength back.

   Slowly. I stand up.

   I made it! I stand up!

   I walk around in the room. Slowly. Still weak.
   I see in a mirror, at a wardrobe. Near my bed.

   Patches. Bruises. Bandages. Scars. I see them. Everywhere. On my body, face, arm, waist.

Then, I take my jacket. Wear it. Puxxie enters the room with a smile. She says,

   "Come, stranger. Pack up your jammies. Let's go."
   "Go? Where?"
   "To a much safer place."
   "Where to?"
   "COL base."

Chapter 6 - PuxxieGalore

Chapter 6 - PuxxieGalore
=====================

   Today, my life shall come to its end.

   My life. It's on a peak of string. Anytime. My life will soon be taken away.

   I know. So far, I have lived a meaningful life - well, since I've turned eighteen, I've facemod quite a lot of undertakings.

   Thank you everyone.

   Mother. You born me on this mere world.
   Father. You taught me about life.
   Madam Noir. You took good care of me.
   Uncle Zhor. You helped me a lot.
   Grace. You are my first friend. My first love.

   I regret. I didn't confess to you.

  I love you Grace.

The unsheathed sword. Swings. My vision blackens. The sun disappears. Black clouds everywhere.

   I close my eyes. My time has come. Farewell.

...

   "Hey what the??!", a voice out.

Swords clashing! Thrashing!

   What is happening?

I open my eyes. Slowly. Too weak.
My vision blurry. Dark.

   I can see figures. Fighting.
   One figure against other three.

Surprisingly, a girl figure.

   Unsheaths her sword. Swings freely in the air. Clashing with the bandits' sword. Sparking the light.

Amazing. Wonderful. Magnificent.

   The battle comes to its end.

The bandits end up with their deaths. The girl wins the battle. The girl comes toward me. My mind couldn't think anything, anymore.

I smile. Collapse.

I don't know what happens.

Let. It. Be.

....soon

   I am dead.
   Am I dead?
   How can I move my fingers?
   How can I listen to my heartbeat?
   How can I listen?
   How can I still breath?
   Am I still alive?
   I am alive.

I can feel. Something soft. Smooth. Moving on my hand.

I open my eye slowly. I see the girl, placing her hand on mine. It's small, soft and smooth. My vision still blurry.

   I can feel it. She slightly moves her hand. From arm to shoulder. Then, she touches my wound - the stabbed wound.

   I feel calm. Her hand then freely moves around my body. My shoulder, chest, stomach, naval, waist. I can feel it everywhere.

Then, I open my eyes. She notices.

   "You're awake, stranger.", she says, while moving her hand to my face. "You almost get killed out there. I save you."

   "Where am I? Who are you?", I question with a soar voice of mine. Very weak. She glares.

   "This is the way you thank a frail maiden like me?", she replies with a smile. I feel funny.

   "I'm grateful for your bravery and kindness, my frail maiden.", I answer her question. She grins.

   "You're welcome."
   "May I know who are you?"
   "My name is PuxxieGalore."

My thought about this girl is one of the strongest brute. Instead, she's one of a sweet kind little angel.

I'm in debt of my life with you.

PuxxieGalore.

Chapter 5 - The Bandits

Chapter 5 - The Bandits
===================

   Today, I shall encounter a real danger. A great adventure. A wonderful life.

   The sound in the bush becomes louder. Louder.

I quiver more than ever.

More than I encountered a viper.

   The worst part is about to happen.

   The sound is gone. Silent. Quiet.

It remains silent.

Perplexing. Confusing. The danger that I was about to encounter has gone.

   I exhale. The sign of relief.

Swooosh....!

   I feel something.
   Pointy. Sharp.
   I touch my shoulder- blood.

I try to see. My glance discover an arrow. Stabbed through my shoulder.

My vision blurs. My sight becomes darker. Darker. I couldn't almost see anything.

I sit, to ease the pain. I try to bear it. I try. Try.

I gain my sight back. I can see it.

A crimson red liquid. Flowing through my shoulder. A spurt at my arms. Bleeding.

I hold the arrow, try to pull it out. The pain resists my energy. Unbearable.

But, there is a question that can't get out of my head.

Where does this arrow come from?

   "Hey look what do we got here!", a stranger voices out.
   "I thought it was a deer, can't believe it's a stranger.", another voice.
   "We got more than deer today!", another voice comes out.

The voices belong to three men. One of them has beard. One of them has scar on his left eye. The third guy has moustache.

   They look like... bandits.

   "What...do..you...want?", I ask with a weak voice. Lack of energy. Due to my blood loss.

   "Well kid, you're newbie here. Just so you know, this place is ours.", the bearded man says.
   "Our place, our rules", the eye-scarred man continues.
   "Then, our rules are easy. Every newbie must pay golds to us. And we'll spare their life.", the moustached man continues as they slowly march to me.

   "Please. Spare my life. I've got nothing with me. I only have a mere soul.", I says, while exhale and inhale weakly. As I lost many energy as well as my blood.

   "Heaps of lies!", the bearded man shouts. "Search his backpack, maybe we'll find valuable ransom."

My sight is getting darker. My eyes can tell me, that the bandits are ransacking my rucksack.

Someone. Please. Help.

   "This is a worthless hunt. This guy is no longer of use to us!", the eye-scarred man screams. Then he unsheaths his sword. Pointing at my chest. Where my heart's located.

My sight is getting darker than ever. Before I close, the other two are just watching. They are laughing.

I think this should be my last. Is this how I die? Couldn't I be forgiven for what I've done to get here? I've just started to live my life. Is this the end of me?

Somebody. Please. Come.

Chapter 4 - Sherwood Forest

Chapter 4 - Sherwood Forest
=======================

   Today, I ride a boat. A slow boat. Driven by the old man in Akhnar. The old man who is my first contact.

   "How do you know, about my journey? I would like to seek the truth.", I ask the old man.

   "I, actually, get used to this. I know. Everyone who leaves Zhor Estate, will go venturing. And you're one of a kind.", the old man replies.

Mind. Perplexing. Confusing.

   My head can't analyze. Can't think anymore. Too much question unanswered.

   "You wouldn't mind if I ask who you are, dear sir.", I ask gently. He grins.

   "You're curious, young man. I'm Sir Hakr, a former decent legionnaire.", he answers. Surprise. Shock. Paralyze. All come up at the same time.

   I don't know, either I speak to a human or a ghost.

   "I thought, Sir Hakr was disposed by Dark Warriors Army.", I say, while staring at him awkwardly- knowing the fact that I'm actually talking to someone who is suppposed to be dead.

   "I purposely hid the fact. Thus, I changed the fact to fiction. I didn't want any soul to put their trustworthy on someone like me.", he explains.

   "You're a clever old man.", I give him my compliment. He shrugs.

   "Your journey almost come to its start.", he says while staring at my eye. I can see. Dark green eyes. Shows mercy to enemies. Such a decent man.

   "What do you mean by 'its start'?", I ask curiously.

He points me an island.
I know what it is.

An enchanted forest.
Full of mysteries.
Life of fantasies.
Agenda of adventures.

Sherwood Forest lies ahead.

   I can't believe it. My eyes couldn't lie to me. My adventure is almost at its start.

   "Remember young man, once you've stepped on the island, you'll never be able to get back home. Because, no boat stops at Sherwood Forest.", the old man reminds me. But, why?

   "Why is that?", I asks.

He remains silence...

   Then, we reach the harbour. No one is there. Seems like I am the first visitor who steps into the forest.

   When I look back, shiver flows to my spine. My face become pale- blood-drained. I know, my eye still wouldn't lie to me. I shudder knowing the fact that

   THE OLD MAN IS GONE! As well as the boat by which I manage to come here- Sherwood. The water is calm. Like there was never a boat - or anything - that made the water ripples.

   Fog. Mist. They suddenly surround forest.

Carefully, I walk inside the creep. Each of my steps tinges with fear and waryness.

Fear. Scare. Wary.

   Suddenly, I hear something. Not something. Not sure what it is. The sound comes directly from a bush. Few meters ahead. I quiver.

Chapter 3 - The Harbour

Chapter 3 - The Harbour
====================


   Today, I wake up. My first thought, adventure.

I prepare my clothes, foods, gold coins. Supplies. Madam Noir notices.

   "What are you doing with these, dear Xi?", she asks.

   "I'm going for an adventure, madam Noir. Like I've said, life's not just under the roof.", I explain. She looks kind of shock.

   "Where are you going to?", she asks.

   "Somewhere far, madam Noir.", I reply.

   "Let him go, Noir. He's not a small kid anymore. He can heave a burden himself.", uncle Zhor speaks. He gives me a smile.

   "Then, I have no power to stop you.", madam Noir smiles at me.

 At the lawn, we gather up. Madam Noir and uncle Zhor hug me before I left. Madam Noir says:

   "XiStarry. This is a picture of your parents. Please take care of it. They didn't left anything else except this picture."

   I take it. I see my mother. My father. Nostalgic

   "Take care, Xi. You've grown up now. You've helped us a lot.", uncle Zhor says.

   "Thank you, uncle Zhor, madam Noir. I'm so happy for all these years with you. I've nothing left I could give. I could only give you, my love and service only.", I reply. With tears. Running down my cheeks. I feel wet.

   It is time.

Madam Noir cries while waving me with a handkerchief. Uncle Zhor waves at me.

I wave. Bow. Smile. Thank. Cry. Leave.

...soon

I make my steps, heading to the tavern. Strange. The old man isn't here. I am wondering thousand questions.

   The tavern. I reach.

I enter as usual, finding my seat. My eyes didn't focus on any others. Except Grace. She's busy.

   After I get my seat, Grace comes towards me. As she knows my presence and existence. I'm grateful.

   "XiStarry, what can I do for you? You seem like venturing somewhere.", she says, looking at my backpacks.
 
   "Well, do you mind packing me some bread? I shall take them for my journey.", I reply.

   "If you wouldn't mind, may I know your journey heading?", she asks while sitting slowly by my side. I wish this could be forever.

   "The journey may be dangerous. I expect for you not to know.", I answer while holding her small hand. I can see the difference between mine and hers. So soft, pale and smooth. She's a real beauty.

   "I see. Well, I wish for your safety along your journey.", she says.

   "One is grateful for your kindness.", I reply. "Thank you."

   "It's fine. I'll get your order up.", she replies. Stands then heads to the kitchen.

She brings the breads. Packed. She passes them to me.

This shall be the last time I hold her smooth hand, I think.

The ache in my chest becomes harder.
Harder than ever.

I can't tell her that I love her.

I just can't.

So, I thank her. Bow. Smile. Kiss her soft hand. Leave. Cry.

...soon


      I reach the harbour. People are looking busy with their works. Some of them are repairing the boats. Some of them are busy with their nets, fishing rods.

   I walk to a jetty nearby. I step onto the plank, I see a familiar face in one of the boat.

THE SAME OLD MAN.

   "There you are, child. I anticipated that you'd come", the old man says while getting off his boat. He then comes beside me and says ''I know just where do you want to venture to''

   "You, sir? How did you..", I reply, but he interrupts.

   "Don't worry child. I'll take you to your destination"

  ''Literally, you know where am I heading to?", I  know he knows what is the answer.

And he does. I've expected much.

   "Sherwood Forest."

Chapter 2 - Akhnar

Chapter 2 - Akhnar
===============

      Today, I wake up. I see birds. Chirping by the window sill. I see sun. Shines through the window. I see madam Noir. Watering her flowers.

      "I'm going to the town again," I monolouge.

      Then, I grab my towel, hung by the bedside. Rush to the bathroom. Brush my teeth, soap my body, clean the dirt. I prepare myself a perfect jacket. Leather jacket. I suit up with a pair of trousers. Black one, shows elegancy. Then, my leather boots.

      I comb my hair. I use to have a curly hair, but now, spiky is my style.

Perfect hygiene.

      I run downstairs. Rush into the kitchen, found myself madam Noir, preparing the breakfast.

Pancakes, tea, doughnuts.

      "Morning, Xi," madam Noir speaks

      "Morning madam. How beautiful the day is today"

      "It is"

      "Beautiful. Like the madam herself," I smile.

      "Stop with your morning jokes, XiStarry. You've got something better to do," the landlord Zhor speaks, once he steps inside the kitchen.

      "Morning Zhor," she gives a kiss on his cheek.

Old folks. Their love never get old.

      "Madam Noir, I'm going to the town after breakfast. Should I buy anything during my journey?"

      "Since you're on the road Xi, help your uncle Zhor. Get him a pipe. Rose-carved one. By Dorg Pipe House," madam Noir requests.

      "No trouble done. I'll finish the quest," I say while sipping a cup of tea.

      I take a piece of pancake, two piece of doughnuts and put them into my porcelain plate. I eat them slowly. Reminds me of my father, an honored man. He always reminded me to take care of eating etiquette

Father..

      Soon, I finish eating my breakfast. Enough until lunch. I walk to the door. Hold the doorknob.

      "You should find youself a maiden, Xi," uncle Zhor teases me. I laugh.

Maybe I should.

I excuse. Open the door. Leave.

...soon

      "I see you're coming, child"

      "Oh, it's you again, sir", I reply to the same old man.

      "Where are you going?

      "Dorg's Pipe House, sir. I have a quest to conquest"

      "I see the spirit, child"

      "I am grateful"

      "You must walk past three blocks forward, then turn to your right. You shall find a sign."

      "Thank you for your great help, sir"

      "My help is for the one only"

I bow. Smile. Leave.

Akhnar.

I walk around. Many people buying groceries by Hadr Grocers
Hats are sold by Giean Hat Store. Pots, vases sold at Joks Pottery.

There it is.

Dorg's Pipe House.

   I step inside. Bell jingles. An old man, like 50s wearing a good overall, glasses.

   "May I seek your pleasure, young man?" The old man asks me.

   "You must be called Dorg, right?" I reply, pointing at him.

   "Yes. Yes, I am", he answers.

   "I'm pleased. I'm requiring your help, sir"
  
   "What can I do for you?"

   "I need a pipe. A rose-carved one. I seek the truth, you might sold it"

   "You've come to the right place, right time. Follow me", he said and point me the counter.

A pipe.

Beautifully rose-carved.

Just like uncle Zhor requested.

   "You're brilliant, sir!" I praise sir Dorg. He smiles.

   "Thank you. Please, take it."

I pay him 50 gold coins.

I smile. Bow. Thank him. Leave.

My steps march towards the tavern. My heart can't stop beating fast. Every step, blood rushes to my whole body. I feel warm.

   I step inside. My heart skips a beat.

Grace.

   I search for myself a table. And I found one. The same table. Under the stairs.

   I walk to the table, while staring at Grace. Her blue eyes. I can see an angel in disguise through it.

   Once I reach my table, Grace notices my presence.

   "Well, if it isn't XiStarry.", she smiles while coming towards me. I'm getting all red. My heart won't stop beating.

   "I'm here for another drink.", I calm myself, giving her a smile. She smiles back.
  
   "Which one would you prefer?", she asks
   "I'll take yesterday's memory with me."
   "Schott 1389, I guess"
   "You're correct, my fair maiden"

She smiles and leave.

   A table besides me, there's two folks. Chatting broadly. Talking about Sherwood Forest, an enchanted forest. Full of mystery. Life of fantasies. Agenda of adventure.

   It catches my attention, until Grace comes with a bottle of wine.

   "Can I know certain of your life, dear Grace?"
   "Which one?", she asks while sitting on a chair, besides me.
   "You seem too young, Grace. How old are you?"
   "My age just reach 18 years old.", she smiles.
   "How wonderful and coincidence!"
   "Why?"
   "We're the same then!"
   "I'm glad"
   We laugh a little.

She excuses herself.

I thank her. Smile.

She smiles. Leaves.

In my thought, only two words floating in my curiousity chest.

Sherwood Forest.

Chapter 1 - XiStarry

Chapter 1 - XiStarry
================

    I turn 18 years old today.

I walk to the outside, proudly. Each step tinges with proudness and happiness. Now, I am a perfect adult.

   "Where are you going, child?", madam Noir, the landlady, asks with a smile.
   "I'm going to the town, madam Noir. Life is not just under the roof", I explain with a hoarse voice of mine.

   "Be aware of the surroundings, Xi. One does not simply known by the townsfolk", madam Noir continues while hanging dresses, trousers and blouses.

   "I will, madam. One is grateful for kindness of madam," I reply, and soon step out of the green lawn, decorated beautifully with sunflowers, dandelions, white roses and forget-me-nots.
   Yes. Forget-me-not. A flower, full of meanings. Never forget about who you are, where you came from, your identity. I'll never forget about them

Words from my mother.

I pick one of them, sniff at it.

   "Today's going to be a great day," I talk to myself.
   "I'll be back before dusk, madam Noir."
   "I'll leave the dinner in the kitchen, dear XiStarry."

I wave. Smile. Leave.

... soon

   "Hello young man." A man smiles to me. He looks like in his 40s. White beard. Pipe at his mouth. A beautifully-carved cane at his hand. Creative. "I've never seen you before. Is this your first step?"

   "I seek to it, mister.", I reply with a smile. "May I know more about this town?"

   "I expected as much, young man. When an egg is hatched, a bird is born. It has to learn about life. You are quite curious, you know." The man replies, sucking his pipe, then blows the smokes.

   "This town is called 'Akhnar'. A small infamous town. Built since year 769. The first mayor of this small town was Sir Hakr, a former decent legionnaire. He came from Sherwood Forest, underneath Jirnar Mount, beside Shallow Lake."

   The story becomes more interesting and more. Soon, he finishes it. I thank him, smile, bow and leave. I walk around the town. Clean. Beautiful. Decorative.

I go to the tavern.

      I step inside. Folks everywhere. Table, stairs, bar. Everywhere. I seek for an empty table. There is. I walk to the table, located under the stairs. Mostly people won't seat there, because they won't risk their life of  getting killed under the old wooden stairs.

      A young maiden approaches me. Pretty. Her ivy blue eyes staring at mine. Her small lips carve a sweet smile. Makes me feel want to kiss it, taste the sweetness of her lips. Her short black hair. The way she flips her obsidian gazed hair, makes me overwhelm. Wonderful.

   "Excuse me, sir?," she waves at my face, staring at her beautiful blue eyes. I step onto the real world. Shaking my head. The girl giggles.
   "I'm sorry. I was....lost for while," I laugh a little. Followed by a wink.
   "May I know, which drink would you prefer," she asks.
   "I prefer wine more than beer, my dear," I reply.
   "Which one do you prefer?"
   "I seek for Schott 1389."
   "You have a good taste, sir"
   "One is grateful," I smile.

   Soon, the maiden comes with a bucket of ice. There's a bottle in it. She pulls it out. It's labelled 'SCHOTT 1389'. I remember what the landlord, master Zhor, always told me about drinks. He listed all the good one, while ruling out all the bad.

Schott 1389, Hyri Bottich, SJ43, Airsky and so the others.
The best among them is Hyri Bottich.

   "This is what you are preferring, sir," says the girl
   "I would be grateful if this young maiden could share me her name," I reply while staring at her, pouring the purple-black liquid into the mug.
   "I would be glad to tell you my name," she answers.
   "I am honored"
   "My name is Grace"
   "Sweet Grace"
   "I'm enthuastic, sir"
   "I would be glad to tell you my name either."
   "I wouldn't mind"
   "My name is XiStarry"
   "Persuasive XiStarry"
   "I'm glad"
  
We laughed a bit.

She excuses and leave. She goes back to her work.

I know

The feel in my chest.
Throbbing through my heart.
Stabbing my soul.
I can feel the ache

This is what they feel.

      I've fell in love with her...

Grace...
