EARLIER.
AROUND the city where most of the houses are made of Kutcha House, the walls and roof of which are made of wood, mud, straw and dry leaves, material other than those mentioned above, such as unburnt bricks, bamboos, mud, grass, reeds, thatch, loosely packed stones.
WHEN Hana left because of her fight with Chen, Prince Keiynan followed her.
“Hana, wait!” As Keiynan trying to stop her from running. “Can you just please calm down? I thought you already know why he is acting that way. He is just very curious about his real identity. He’s just in shock.”
Hana did not speak. She had nothing to say so she stopped walking and faced him. She hugged him for comfort.
“Let’s go back and find him. You are the only person who can understand him of how he feels right now.” Keiynan said while whispering on her left ear.
<THE FIRE nation leader commanded his disciples to investigate the reason behind of their failed attack. A couple of days, his disciples returned with their retrieved information. Their leader expects them to have good news.“My Lord, the one person who destroyed the CanFe nation was just a woman. All of them was killed by a she named Hana.”“Just a woman? Just a woman?” The Lord said while slowly standing from his throne that is made from a plain stone.“Yes, my Lord.”“How can you say that she is just a woman when almost everyone in our race was killed by her.” He blasts off his disciple and flung on the floor.The CanFe crawls back to his Lord’s feet and asks for forgiveness. “I am sorry, my Lord.”“Is there anything you brought with you?” The Lord said and kicked his disciple.“Y-Yes, my Lord. I have brought you a water bender from
THE SUNSET, which was just beginning to make its way down to the horizon, was stunning in every aspect. The water in the sea and ocean swung beautifully in the wind’s movements. The spring air was as cold as a cucumber since it had softly grazed its graciousness against the earth’s surface, making it seem fresh. A man came out of the Ship Cabin wearing black boots, pants, coat with guns in it, and with a long and full black mustache on his face, while also wearing a black hat. “Ahoy, captain!” White skinny boy with a pale lip, holding a bucket of bubbles, the Cabin Boy said. “Avast! Furl up and listen pirates!” The Quartermaster shouted, among everyone in the ship, he is the tallest with bulk arms. Surely, he can
A TWO-day Ocean voyage from Skull Island to Western-South Island to Rainforest Biomes, they have finally reached their destination. They can also breathe fresh air from the forest without the moist of salt from the sea. They boarded two boats they call dinghy that were lowered from the side of the deck, and they paddled until they reached the shore. When they reached the shoreline, they were about to descend to the ground when suddenly a fireball attacked them on the ground, reason to retreat them while covering their captain. “Protect the captain!” The Quartermaster quickly made his shield using his own muscular body. Nor the captain cannot hide from himself the shock of the sudden event. The captain was angry because he felt he was a
WHEN Captain Black Beard with his pirates and Lord Daemon were prepared, they are planning to go at the Water Nation for their attack. It’s revenge time. “Let’s go, me hearties!” Captain Black Beard shouted in front of his pirates and other CanFes, as Lord Daemon laughs evilly. They boarded Captain Black Beard’s ship and traveled from the ocean side of the Rainforest Biome to the southwest ocean and circled to the southeast ocean to the small Water Bender’s Village. “Day of my guarding duty on the second nightfall in the village, and that is the right time for you to enter the palace. I will open the gate for you without anyone else knowing and watching.” Esme said while they were talking for the plan two days ago. They travel from the surface of the ocean into the cold and fresh air of the forest, heading to the target place. The ship float like it was floating on water yet it
THE five soldiers turned their whole bodies and faced the king. The forced decision was imprinted on their faces. Even if they don’t want to do it, they have to follow their enemies because they love their family. “How can we make sure our families are still alive?” A soldier turned from the king’s side. The four soldiers also looked probably the same question stuck in their minds. “After you have obeyed what we command you, I give you, my words.” It is hard for them to trust but they could do nothing but believe what Lord Daemon told them. Their family depends on what actions they will make. “Forgive us, your highness.”
WHEN Keiynan regained consciousness, he found himself sitting in a corner where he thought he was just outside a house where they had apparently hid earlier. He tried to break away, but he was tied up. “Let me go!” Keiynan shouted. A soldier approached and kicked him in the stomach. “Shut up! Do you think we will listen to you? Do you think your power will work here as a prince?” The big, round moon gave light to the whole city, reason why Keiynan sees the face of the soldier who kicked him. The face was familiar to him, but he was sure it was not a water bender or from their nation. “How did you know I am a prince?” “Just the first time I saw you, at the entrance of the city, I knew you were not a normal person, I knew you had the royal blood because of the robe you were wearing.
HANA and Keiynan want to stop everything from happening, but they can’t do anything about their situation right now and the only thing they can do is to get along well, so that their lives don’t end right away. Hana thinks, if Captain Black Beard really wanted to kill them, he would have shot them in the head since the first day they met. What are they planning to do to us? Hana asked herself.“Unleash me and I promise I won’t hurt you!” Hana trying to please the soldier who hold her hands as they were walking over on a plank that serve as stairway to the ship.“Yeah, yeah, unleash yourself lady. I am already a fool; you can’t fool the fool.” He laughed so loud.When the three prisoners arrived on the ship together with the palace soldiers and pirates. “Captain, where are we going?” The pirate asked Capta
CAPTAIN Black Beard was standing at the far end of the ship, forecastle deck mast, when he heard the loud explosion. “What was that explosion?” the captain asked.Their cabin boy approached. “The prisoners have escaped!” Bowing his head down to show some respect.“W-What?! How possibly it happened?” Captain Black Beard is very mad, his ear is burning with anger, and his white skin turns into red.“The warden set them free, captain!” Though Azazel is afraid to say, but he was able to speak because it was necessary.Captain Black Beard quickly ran away from where Azazel is standing to check on the most important prisoner he had in that prison.“Captain!” Azazel tried to call the captain to ask something, but he also immediately understood why it was in a hurry, he followed to accompany it. “T
THE Emporium Kingdom has become quiet since the day of the battle between five nymphs and the kingdom in the City of Gold. Everything comes back from where it belongs. Peace. Love. No chaos has been reported for three months. It is sad to think that the commoners, people who lives in the city, inside the kingdom, don’t really care or think about what is happening inside the palace. The people who work for their safety, care, and needs, are having hard time and difficulties maintaining their strong high walls that’s been in-belief of providing everything they have inside the walls. King Chen and Seraphina are both inside Hana’s heavy atmospheric room, sitting on each side of her bed. She is unconscious. Sweats were coming out and dried in her clothes. She looks pale yet she’s healthy from inside ou
“I AM going to kill them all just like the first one!” said Drakaina while they are running. “What do you mean, ‘just like the other one?’” The king said. “I burned one of them. She was very powerful for a servant like her but I’m more powerful than her. I killed her with my own power. Darkness with light versus just darkness.” “We better get hurry. I’m still confuse of what happened. Suddenly, we were back to normal, you did nothing to get us back.” “You better thank me, young man! If I didn’t stop myself, you all better be dead right now.”&nb
SERAPHINA can’t stop thinking about her daughter. All ifs she could think of are messing up her mind. They are now going outside of the palace to meet the king and his soldiers. Drakaina is leading the way while Seraphina is just following her with occupied mind. “Hana, wait!” Seraphina called her daughter. Drakaina stopped and turned, “First, I am not your daughter, Hana. My name is Drakaina, like you always call me, even though Hana doesn’t like it to hear from you. But lucky for you, that’s what I like. Okay? So, why did we stop?” “I know what happened back in the cave. You are not my daughter but, I know some of you is part of me, too. The darkness in you, it all came from me, and I want
“THEY didn’t find anything suspicious that could lead to her. That all means that she got able to escape the palace without our guards noticed her,” King Chen said while walking back in forth. “We have to do something before her pack can make a huge panic to the city. If she was hungry and killed one of our soldiers, then the rest of her pack must eat, too.” Hana said while watching him. “How are we supposed to catch all of them without letting the people inside the walls, notice about the threat?” “Can you please stop? You’re making my head hurt by just looking at you,” Hana couldn’t stand of him. She held her head and gently stroking it on its back.&
SHE took a deep breath before going inside. Everything around her became dark as soon as she entered. She turned to look at the light from outside, but it was slowly disappearing, so she continued to walk in, even though her legs were shaking so much, and her skin hairs were also standing up especially on her nape. Every step she took was equivalent to swallowing her own saliva. A few more steps and she feel as if she is being choked, she is having difficulty breathing and she feels more and more dark all around, until her knees weakened even more, and she slowly kneels on the ground and she feels dizzy. Everything is all dark now. Even a small light had disappeared from her sight. Hana woke up in a dark place and lost her weakness, earlier. She slowly stood u
HANA and her mother reached a village. They could see almost no color in that area. All houses are colored black and white. As they approached the village, holding the ropes of their camels, the winds that greeted them seemed to embrace them. It was warm coming from the sea mixed with heat from the ground that made Hannah's feathers stand up. “Are you okay, Kaina?” Seraphina asked her daughter. “Yeah, I’m fine. It’s just . . . I don’t like the feeling of coming back here. I can still hear their cries, shouting for help and memories of what happened that . . . that horror night.” Hana stops from walking and tears escaped from her eyes. “Hey,” a soft tone of Seraphina’s voice. “I&rsquo
SEVERAL nights and days passed and finally, they arrived in the Rainforest Biome, South-East part, where water benders live – Water Nation Village. They left the ship at the deep surface near the shoreline. The place seems to have become a silent nation. No audible noise of children playing or not so people walking from around. “Where is everyone?” Hana asked while they are walking towards the main entrance gate of the village. “I don’t know and I’m not sure what was exactly happened here.” Keiynan replied without removing his sight on the surroundings. “What do you mean ‘you don’t know’? Is there something we
IN THE morning, as if the moon and night with it were swiped to become morning with the wide rays of light which touches the whole land and ocean. The lady woke up early and only surreptitiously looked at what she was doing whenever she passed in front of the guy sleeping on her bed. “Why am I here? Why didn't that mermaid just say what I wanted to know.” Hana was talking to herself while watching the two what will happen next. “I need to wake him up . . . But how?” The woman is just walking around, she couldn’t decide what to do with the man.She did not realize that the man had woken up already, “W-Where am I?”The woman was startled
HANA’S Point of ViewI WAS feeling perplexed and curious about my true existence after the consecution of event. Now, it seemed more revelation of myself. I wanted to know about myself that my father failed to tell me.Early in the morning where sun’s still hiding from the arid sand mountains. I sneak out cautiously and hushed so no one can hear me while carrying my dirty bag made of from the skin of slaughtered unrivalled camels. But I fail to accomplish my motives. I got caught by Chen, sitting on the floor near at the door.“Where do you think you’re going madame?” Chen asked smilingly.I was frost and rage of the situation. I can’t answer Chen directly like she did a big offence, but still I tried to
