The next morning, Eru slowly blinked open. Bright morning light flashed on his face, almost blinding him. He blinked slowly and sat up. "What the hell? Aren't I supposed to be sleepless after such an experience? How could I sleep like a baby?" he mumbled, tenderly caressing the newly bandaged wound on his neck. "Thank fully I'm alive,"
'what would have happened if Deric was not next to me.' He gulped at the thought "I have to thank him properly," he whispered resolutely.
Eru slowly rolled out of bed. Both his legs were swollen and aching badly. Even his hands were not spared they both were pink and aching. "Can I take a break from training? I don't think my body can handle anymore," he mumbled, stretching his hand and hips.
He slowly hopped over next door. But Deric was not there. She glanced out the window to find everyone already lines up in front of the porch. Her master/uncle was standing next to a nearby tree with his back to the house. "Shit, I'm late," he dashed out.
