Julan moved nervously back and forth
"how do you know for sure big sister? What if you are wrong? And I'm scared, I didn't take the test of the forest "
Jaya sank down on her knees and stroked Julan's cheek with her hand.
" if You survive this you have learned more from the test of the forest than me. I was still under the supervision of my trainers. I know I am asking a lot from you but you have enough poison and training from me to survive. In addition to that, I am sure that my truth serum works. The information i got can't be wrong"
Julan shrugged and looked firmly at his big sister
"okay I trust your words! Wait for my big sister when I met the king I will come back with help "
Jaya smiled at him and walked to the place where he had just hidden everything. She grabbed a cloth and wrapped everything in it. Then she shifted a kettle. Under the kettle was a tunnel opening. Jaya and her brother took almost a year to dig it. Now it was finally ready and Julan could escape.
She turned and motioned for Julan to hurry. Before he went into the tunnel she gave him a kiss and a long hug.
"You are all I have left, take care of yourself"
Julan nodded and went into the tunnel before he was out of sight, he turned and looked at jaya
"big sister wait for me, I'll be back!"
After Julan left she put the kettle back in its place and collapsed and started crying. Please be safe, Julan. The next check up round would be in two hours, so it would be a while before they found out he was gone. besides the night is still young, I think it will be a while before the Fox tribe attacks.
Jaya was sure they would be attacked. Especially now that the warriors in the camp thought they had won the battle and were less wary. Will I survive?
The warriors of the foxes tribe must be very angry at me. Especially those who lost their foxes because of my poison. Even though not many of them had fallen, it was still a fact that a few had fallen. In addition to that, there are many foxes that are affected.
Her thoughts and nerves made her crazy, so she decided to go to sleep. Anyway, she should be ready for a fight in two hours. If she did not survive, she hoped that julan would reach the king of the dragon tribe with the antidote on time. She was so busy in thought that she had fallen asleep quickly.
...
Jaya woke up and looked around. She looked at her self-made clock and saw that she had slept for more than three hours. Had there already been a check up round? She got up and wanted to get out of bed.
The moment she got up she felt dizzy and fell on the bed again. She put her hand on her head and looked around. Something is wrong!
Suddenly she smelled a familiar smell, paralyzing gas? she felt her body go limp and she had trouble sitting up. With difficulty she put a cloth around her nose and mouth and walked over to her medicinal herbs. She knew she had an antidote but couldn't find it.
She tried to walk to the other side of the tent but felt with every step that her legs became weaker and weaker. Besides that she also had difficulty keeping her eyes open and felt her consciousness sinking.
Jaya could no longer stand and felt that she was lossing stenght and fell over. Just before she hit the ground, she fell into the arms of a warrior. The warrior's arms were muscular and held her in a firm grip. Although the grip was firm it felt safe.
With difficulty she looked up to see who that warrior was. All she could see was clear blue eyes and a pair of golden blonde curls that fell down his face.
"Tatsu"
Tatsu lifted Jaya and left the tent. Outside it was a battlefield everywhere around them there was warriors fighting. But Tatsu only had eyes for the girl he carried in his arms.
He walked with her towards the forest and when he was far enough from the battlefield he put her down. He took the antidote and gave it to Jaya. Then he put her down so she could wake up calmly. He stroked her hair and looked lovingly at her
"I knew it was you"
Tatsu sat down beside her and looked toward the battlefield. He saw that Huli was covered in blood and was fighting without mercy.
As soon as Jaya was awake he would also fight. Who knew that we would be so lucky and find the leader of the rebels in this camp. Since the death of Lord Kaidon, someone else had been chosen as the leader. Nobody knew who it was, but now they had discovered that it was Cuan's uncle. Like Kaidon, he wanted to take the crown from his brother.
Tatsu felt movement next to him. He looked at Jaya and saw that she woke up. When she noticed that she was lying in the grass, she looked around in terror.
"It's okay JaJa, it was my gas and I already gave you the antidote. u will feel fine in just a second"
Jaya looked up with tears in her eyes. There is only one person who calls her that. She sat down on her knees and touched him with her hand to see if he was really there.
"Tatsu is it really you! Are you really here? "
Tatsu took her hand and gave her a kiss on the palm of her hand. The last time they had seen each other was a painful encounter. Both the elders of the dragon tribe and the Fox tribe already had in mind who they should marry. But unfortunately they were not engaged to each other.
"I am really here, and I am not going to leave. But first the most important thing for us is to fight and then the antidote. Fu is affected and as you can see it has driven Huli to madness "
Jaya looked towards the battlefield and indeed saw that Huli was fighting as a possessed person. Despite his injuries, he fought his way through enemy lines. Their leader tried to hide behind his warriors, but Huli mercilessly killed everyone in his path.
"My little brother, have you seen my brother?"
Tatsu nodded
"Yes, he told us everything. he is now on my fox on his way to the northeast with the antidote recipe "
Jaya got up and knocked off her clothes
"even though I did not fight for a while I would do my best to assist you. As a thank you for liberating me and my litttle brother "
