Merging Destinies

     That snap was enough to make the two of them on high alert. Din immediately put out the fire and slowly walked to the area where the sound came. He was bending his body forward, holding his knife on the right hand and a fist on his left hand, and both of his arms are a little bit away from his body. He was ready to attack at first sight of his enemy.


     While Din was stalking his unseen enemy, Lara quick-wittedly attached the baby carrier and bag back to her body, ready to run when the time calls for it. She then slowly stepped back behind the tree to hide.


     Din was slowly walking forward when a glint passed on his peripheral vision. He immediately stepped to right and twisted his body to the left to defend from the unknown attacker. He felt pain in his left hand and a tickling sensation came after. The opponent has successfully wounded him and now he is bleeding. When he was ready to strike back, he felt ominous feeling surrounding him. 'Shit! We are surrounded' he thought. 


     The first thing he did was to subtly look at the direction where Lara and the baby is and relieved to see that she was not there anymore. 'So, she was hiding behind the tree, huh?' he quietly assumed. After confirming their safety, he dropped his defense position and started to talk like giving a speech on a graduation ceremony, accompanied by his hands swinging like he was convicted of what he was saying. 


     "I thought that I could ran away from all of you. Welcome! Welcome! Thank you for coming. But as sad as it may be, isn't it time that we separate? Let my blood spilled to stain these visitors of mine." His opponents were dumbfounded as he started to talk gibberish.


     "Where is the baby?" the man who attacked interrogated Din.


     "What baby?" he replied puzzledly. After replying, he started to guffawed and shouted,


     After his declaration, he started swinging his blade to the nearest person. However, the man was alert and successfully rolled over to dodge his attack. After the man steadied himself, he then shouted, "Bastard! Some of you, look for the woman! Do not come back until you have not found her!"


     When some of the men complied to the command. Din ran to intercept them. "Where are you going, my beloved visitors? Aren't I here to entertain you?" he said while simultaneously attacking them.
