It was late in the night in the kingdom of Daorah. Everywhere was dead silent. The only thing moving around were some men in white robes. There were couple of them at different areas. They were putting on white hoods, white robes and white leather shoes. They were all holding swords with their sheaths hung at their waists.
Not long, a dark boy was seen tiptoeing along the walls of a wooden house located near a big tree, it was Klora. He walked as quiet as he could. After tiptoeing for sometime, he finally got to the entrance of the house. He found the door crack opened which made him to wait for some minutes. After waiting for sometime, he moved closer to the door and peeped in. He couldn't see anything, it was too dark in there so he decided to open the door quietly and proceeded in. After getting in, he could smell something rotten, he almost even puked as he covered his nose with his wrist. He walked slowly with his hands moving to the front and to his side ways, of course, it was too dark to see anything. As he moved forward, the smell became even more worse.
" What the heck is going on?" he soliloquized as he got scared. Suddenly, something squawked which made Klora try to run.
Paa!
He stepped on something liquid which made him slip, then knocked him off his feet. He screamed and tried to stand but where he was, it was slippery. The liquid substance on the floor had stained his hands, hence, it made it even more difficult to stand.
Suddenly, it started raining, it rained cat and dog that Klora became overwhelmed with fear.
Grrrrr!
Thunder struck and made him even more scared. He managed to move away from where he was lying and leaned some where, facing side ways. He started breathing heavily, thinking of what to do. It was still raining and the whole place was still dark which worsened the situation.
Haa!!!!
He screamed and rushed back as lightning appeared, revealing where he was facing to be where a dead body was made to sit. It was the body of the old woman he had said to be a witch. Part of her flesh had gone, revealing her inner organs. Klora screamed again with his ears covered with his hands as he jumped on his feet. He tried to run but something held his cloth tightly. He tried to get himself loose but couldn't.
Grrrr!!!!
There came the thunder strike again which made him scream even more. He forced himself forward which made his cloth torn and he got loose. As he got loose, he ran out of the house without looking back. It was still raining heavily and it was hard to see anything..
After falling and standing while running for sometime, he eventually came across other houses with their doors shut. He moved towards the back of a brick house and waited for the rain to stop. He kept on crying with his face buried in his hands.
Haa!!!!
He heard someone scream from a nearby bush.
Haa! Haa!! Haa!!!
Then lots of people started screaming which made Klora to run again. He breathed heavily as he ran. As he ran pass a bush by the roadside, a hand grabbed him by his cloth and pulled him inside the bush.
" Hel…." He tried to scream but had his mouth covered.
" You'll get yourself killed if you keep on shouting" the voice came from behind him just after his mouth was left opened. Klora looked back and noticed it was a white knight. After sometime, it stopped raining but the atmosphere became chilled.
Klora and the white knight hid for sometime and waited calmly in the bush. Not long, a tall and strong man with a beard slowly walked out of the shadow. He was wearing a black chest piece, and he had two silver great swords at his back. The man checked his surroundings as he wiped the blood on a dagger held in his hand.
' Kin?' the white knight whispered as he scrunched his eyebrow.
' Do you know him?' Klora asked silently as he looked at him curiously. The white knight looked at him and nodded his head.
' He is the king's man, he works for him' the white man replied.
' What's really going on, why is he killing people, he just killed my mum' Klora asked even though, the white knight didn't know .
Suddenly, the man identified as Kin by the white knight dropped the dagger he was cleaning and drew out his two swords as he ran towards the direction of where he had heard someone's voice.
' Holy crap! We've been caught, run !!!' the white knight yelled as he forced Klora up and pushed him forward. As they ran, they looked back and noticed that the man had disappeared. They hurriedly stopped, looking here and there, waiting for him to show up. The white knight had drawn out his sword from its sheath, pointing it here and there in confusion. Klora on his side shivered as he tried to run but was stopped by the white knight.
Hun!!!!!
The white knight groaned as he noticed a sharp blade pieced through his heart. He managed to look at the back and saw it was Kin. He had appeared behind him and stabbed him in his back. Klora yelled as he saw what happened and ran. As he ran, Kin brought out a short knife from a sheath at his leg and threw it at him.
Haa!
Klora yelled as he fell down and blood gushing out of his shoulder. He groaned for sometime and later stopped breathing. Kin moved closer to him and checked his heart if it was still beating.
' Of course, you couldn't have survived that dagger' Kin exclaimed as he beamed and left.
