(Italic-start)
I was looking down in the mess. I can't do anything because I'm naive and weak. What can I do is to watch and view how my fellows fighting for our kingdom.
Now I was looking for my bestfriend Xiehuan how he fight from our enemies. And a few steps from him is my aunt Xiu Ying. Xiehuanis is a bit older than me so I treat him as a big brother.
I felt like a coward for not being in the war and just watching here in top. I can't do anything because I know to myself that I'm afraid.
In just a seconds I saw a guy with mask running towards my bestfriend Xiehuan, I know that his age is not that far from mine.
"XIEHUAN AT THE BACK!" I shouted
But it's too late because the guy was too fast and he already stabbed him. I saw how his eyes widen and blood from his chest flow through his body.
My hands were trembling, my throat was drying and I can't think straight.
The guy pull out his sword from Xiehuan's chest... and slash his neck.
I want to cry but lacking of tears. I can't move, I was still here and can't do anything. I am so angry but afraid.
"Xiehuan..."
After he killed by bestfriend, aunt Xiu Ying saw the scene. So she run from the guy to kill him. I have a hope that aunt will surely kill him.
I was hoping... just hoping for others and not for myself.
But I underestimate the guy, he was fast and mighty. He's a kid but stronger than anyone else.
He fly above my aunt and stab her from above. Because of I saw, I can't hold it anymore.
I jump and flew down. I will kill that guy and avenge my bestfriend and aunt.
When I went down, I saw a sword so I pick it up and poin it at the slayer.
Without thinking I run towards him and ready to stab his chest.
"AAAAAHHHHHHH!"
I was near to him and he was still standing and staring at me wih hos cold eyes.
"I WILL KILL YOU!"
I was a few steps from him when he lift his hand and it made a black dust. I didn't bother to avoid his attack as long as I can kill him.
He threw the black dust to my eyes. My eyes feels sore and painful. And closed my eyes so it won't increase the pain.
But even I closed my eyes it still hurt. But it's not the reason to let go the sword, I was still holding it to kill the guy.
But I already run for a miles and I don't have anything to stab.
I opened my eyes slowly even it's hurt. I want to see that guy's face.
But he was not here anymore. So I turn around, and I saw him.
While he's walking near to me, I've sense something...
"You won't be able to see after a minute. Take that as my gift... prince" Even though I can't see her face, I know that he was smirking
I felt dizzy, my eyes was getting blured. I slowly falling down.
When I feel the ground, I was still looking at him. He come near to me.
He removed his mask, but I can't see his face clearly even he's so near to me. "Hope we can see each other again in the future... And I will surely end this battle between us"
He was grinning at me, I don't know but I really sense something and I'm not sure because my power was still weak and vulnerable.
"Be glad that I let you to live. Because your still a kid like me, but your weaker than a lamb. When we see each other again in the future, your surely get stronger. But maybe still a weak and coward" And he chuckled... a cold chuckle
"I guess your a bit older than me... so I spare your life. By the way we are still in the same age and year. I'll wait you, so you better get ready"
After saying those words, he stood up and walk away.
I will not be like this, I will get stronger and tougher. I will not let anyone to hurt my love ones again.
"Aunt Xiu Ying... Xiehuan..." I will avenge you... I will surely make him pay
(Italic-end)
"Prince..."
(Italic-start)
I will work so hard and trained, I will surely double the strength I have than him.
(Italic-end)
"Prince..."
(Italic-start)
"Aunt Xiu Ying... Xiehuan" just wait and I will kill him for you
(Italic-end)
"PRINCE!"
Shi Yan get up in instant when Chu Quao shouted on his ears. "What do you think your doing woman?"
He was holding his ears because he felt like his eardrums will explode.
"Your having a nightmare" she said worriedly
"Can't you just wake me up in a better way?!" He asked irritated
"Like pouring you a bucket of water--" she stops when Shi Yan yell
"Are you insane?! Why would you pour me a bucket of water instead of wake me up normally" Chu Quao shrugged
"You did it to me when I was sleeping outside your door before. So I guess it was the proper way" Shi Yan massage his forehead. Even he's with her everyday before and now, he's not still used of her stupidity.
"By the way prince, why are you always calling aunt Xiu Ying and Xiehuan? Who are they?" She asked
"Just forget those" Chu Quao just nod her head.
"Prince I cook for you, it was so delicious I promise!" She said with a bright smile
"What is that?" He asked
"It's a healthy noodles I made, it was made with vegetables. I did not add some meat so you can taste the real freshness and sweetness of the vegetables"
"No I won't eat that, replace it" he command
"No! Eat this because I already thrown out the meats" Shi Yan's jaw dropped
"What?!"
Chu Quao smiled, "I don't like meats because vegetables are more tasty than meats"
"I don't care, cook a meat not a vegetable" he ordered
"No prince! I already cooked your food so eat this or starve to death" Shi Yan can't believe that Chu Quao really have a guts to command him.
"Let me remember you that I'm the prince here"
"I didn't forget that, just eat my vegetables first. I've gone a lot just to serve this to you" she demanded
"No! Eat it yourself" he said and lie on the bed again.
"Prince please... Eat this, I promise I won't cook vegetables again. EVER AGAIN. So please eat this" she was begging
Shi Yan sigh and sit up straight, readying his stomach not to thrown out the noodles.
"Fine" Chu Quao smiled and start to feed him.
Shi Yan was breathing deeply while Chu Quao mixing the noodles. "Say ahh"
Shi Yan opened his mouth slowly, as the noodles touches his lips, he closed his eyes.
When he already eat it up. He was surprised, It's... it's delicious
Shi Yan never eaten vegetables, he always eat meat because he don't like the tase of green goods. When he first time eaten vegetables, he puke all of it because of bitterness and tasteless of it.
But after he ate her vegetables noodles, he thought that it was tastier than meats.
"Is it delicious?" She asked
Shi Yan pretend that he don't like the food so she will cook it again. "No, it's bitter, salty, and it was the most nasty food I've taste"
Chu Quao felt disappointed but she still smiled at him. "If that so, like what I've promised. I won't cook this again"
"Wait! Aren't you gonna-- nevermind" he can't said it to her. He can't said if she will gonna cook for him again the vegetables noodles.
"I will just eat this so it won't waste. I will cook again for you" Shi Yan just nod and sigh
He let her go away with his yummy vegetables noodles. He was hoping if Chu Quao will cook again those to him.
