CHAPTER 7: QUIET ONE

CHAPTER 7: QUIET ONE.

After Linurk left the crowd, he took a walk out of his little village. He walled for some minutes, through the trees pondering the tactics needed to hold thier ground for the Dare wolves strike.

He walked for a while before coming across a hut, which was not far from his village. The separation of this particular hut from the rest signified isolation.

Linurk didn't bother to knock and just entered assive he owns the place,

"Arjurd !!!" He yelled,

Before him was a guy with pure black inky hair, shirtless, thin and looking frial just the boy Linurk hit for no reason. But he was different unlike the rest who had animal like features, he did not possess a tail or long ears on his head,He looked completely human.

The guy bowed his head but remained silent,

Linurk was at his peek of frustration and stressed out.

"Can't you talk?" He yelled at the guy and without further thoughts. He raised his leg and kicked the guys chest, causing him to fly backwards and hitting the ground hard.

He was so angry that he forgot that the guy before him is the "quiet one". The one in the village who doesn't speak and interact with others, he isolated himself away from them.

The guy named Arjurd is the one responsible for crafting their weapons which includes, spares, bows, arrows fr simple materials like wood, stone and silky elastic grin spider web. Despite all that, he also responsible for building and fixing of the huts after each attack.

"I need as many spares as possible in good condition" Linurk said, calming his anger and not even apologizing.

*SILENCE*

"I also need all other weapons, sharpened, in good conditions and ready for battle" He said,

*SILENCE*

The silence was getting on his nerves, making it hard for him to control himself. Clenching his fist in anger as he resisted not to hit Arjurd.

"In fact sunset is too much time"

He said trying to get a reaction from Arjurd but got nothing.

"I need them by noon"

He said, turned around about to leave.

"I'll send someone to you" He said leaving the Arjurds home, making his back to the village to plan his next step.

(BACK AT THE VILLAGE)

"Oh no"

"Oh no"

"Oh no"

Mona murmured to herself as she walked through the village, they were moving once again and its affecting her.

"Sure i acted fine with my father so he wont be worried but the truth is im tired scared and............."

She paused,

"I don't want him to relinquish the chieftaincy tittle to me"

She said as tears rolled down her checks, like a little girl not ready to accept responsibility. Before anyone could notice she wiped her tears away.

After cleaning her tears away, she used her cute nose to sniff her hands, down to her arm and to her armpit.

"I'll take a bath"

She said walking out of the village,making her way towards the river nearby. As she left the village her cute ears stood instantly,reacting to the sound she heard.

*AHGGGGHHH*

She heard once again, and laughter followed the sound. Mona was confused as she moved carefully, following the strange sounds and laughter.

(A few minutes passed)

She got closer and close to the source of the strange sounds. Far ahead of her she could see some figures laughing out loud assive enjoying the best time of thier lives. It soom got to a certain point she begins to recognize the owners of laughter. From afar she could see them, the warriors all laughing and having fun.

"What are they doing all the out here" She asked herself,

"Who what about the other sound"

She asked herself confused, but her questions were soon to be answered.

Mona moved closer and hid behind a tree, so they couldn't see her. Mona popped her head out taking a peek at what they were doing that brought so much merriment.

Her eyes widened as she saw them hitting, punching and kicking the guy with white hair, light blue pupils in his eyes. She watched as they hit and bit him mercilessly for fun, she watched as blood spilled from his mouth and nose with his face completely covered with bruises. After each punch, he falls to the ground and they pick him back up, holding his arms as they hit him.

"Useless pig" one yelled, jumping high into the air and hitting the guys face with his elbow. He couldn't fight back, he tried to run but another held onto his tail dragging him back as another warrior struck him back to the ground. They no longer felt his struggle to run as he laid on the ground motionless.

"He passed out" one said,

"Wake him up"

Another yelled, and water was immediately poured on his face. His eyes lids twitched as his eyes slowly opened feeling the sudden wetness on his face. He then poured his mouth getting a little of the water into his mouth and he swallowed.

*COUGH*COUGH*

Blood sprouted out of his mouth as he coughed, one held onto his dirty white hair, dragging him up from the floor.

"What's the point if you are not conscious to feel it" he said,

Mona watched all these happen before her eyes, but did she couldn't cate less. She watched and as they struck him once more his gaze went to her direction, looking at her with dull eyes as he fell back to the ground.

Mona watched as all the warriors suddenly composed themselves, standing up from the logs they were seated on. She noticed all thier gaze was fixed on one direction,

"What's going on" She said stretching her head out to see what was going on.
