"Umm … Did they forget about",
"Shhhh… Be quiet this is getting good" Ulia stops Rizette Mid-sentence, to see how things were going to turn out.
All while Rizette was now on top of Hoku with both his limbs and mouth frozen over, and chained down to the ground with ice like chain.
"You filthy traitors, to think you would actually try to strike your own chief", both Faki and Rito remain silent Koki put himself in front of them forced a smile.
"Like we said before he's no longer our chief, he's just an old man that needs to put the village in to our hands to protect" standing in front of the villagers who's doubts and regrets were as visible has the inner fear that had kept them on Raga's side.
The two factions continued to argued with each other,
"I said enough!" Elika shouted again wiping off the blood from her mouth, while still holding Pai in her hand unconscious from shock.
Tetso then looks around in the crowd and asked "Where is Hoku?",
Has soon as he had asked the crowd stopped, and divided to show Hoku being sat upon squirming around underneath Rizette mumbling through the ice muzzle "Pppoaaappiioopp" in an attempt to call out to his sister.
"Tsk!, I kicked with enough force to make his head roll" Raga muttered under his breath while holding onto his bruised ribs,
Hearing this "Not only that but he pierced through holy armor like it was butter" Obi added standing beside him.
"You… I see now, by the great wisdom of the archbishop. He was able predict the need, to protect this… threats to our people" Elika's praise while clasping on hands together.
"Cut the bull shit!" A villager's spoke out,
"This kid has done nothing to your people!" another added,
"I've seen this child grow from a baby to a great young man and I've never seen him try to hurt anyone, his father was a great warrior and I am proud to have known his mother" Tetso proclaimed.
"Ah, blasphemy do you want to be called a wretched heretic, like this fool" asked Elika to her followers.
"No my lady!" They responded in unison, all the while Hoku was still throwing a wild fits and at this point it was pissing off Ulia.
(Sfx Twitches)
Has a vein in her head started to pulse,
"Alright we get it you're an animal now shut it!",
Kicking him straight in the face breaking the ice muzzle.
"Call us a heretic all you want, your still not taking that child" Tetso said has he walks forward,
The little piece of clothing he have left. Left nothing to the imagination, he was a walking dwarf titan, his rippling muscles started to change colours to a dark iron silver, with each striping scar on his body becoming pitched black. Both Obi and Raga stood in front of Elika, sweating visible, shaking obvious , as they both recognize what form he was going into.
(Kaale daladal ka loha mode, It's a form he came to be blessed with has a substitute the firecrest while fighting the Black Swamp sharks down in mangroves Forest. His scars soak up most of the carbon in the swamp water, making his iron body even harder than steel).
"Wait!" Elika plead,
Tetso stopped to listened, "You said you would not allow me to take this child, so what of the men and women who are with me".
He stop and looked out at them then to the people standing beside and behind him "I am the chief of The Rengma Village, those who choose to stay with me on my villagers those who choose to leave here with you… are none of my family" Tetso replied.
Elika then smiled and responded "Then would you feel better to hear it from her", as she gently touched Pai's face to wake her up.
Pai slowly opened her eyes rubbing her eyes with her arm, only to see Elika staring at her with her eyes glowing white at the rims, she whispered into her ears.
(Oh boy… sorry Hoku guess you just loss another one) Lieg removing his entertain smile that he had going for this entire time.
Hoku regaining consciousness from the kick to the face that had knocked him out, the fangs on the claws and scales had disappeared.
"What… what happened… where's, where is my sister?" He asked Ulia and Rizette,
Rizette not responding but slowly got off of him, but Ulia she was visibly pissed off but not with him she was looking towards the crowd. Realizing this he slowly turned his head to the crowd to see his little sister standing between both Obi and Raga with Elika behind her, holding onto her shoulders and Pai holding both their hands.
"What the hell is this… why are they holding on to her?" Hoku asked but the two did not answer.
Rizette waving on her hand, over Hoku releasing him from the ice chain disbursing them into mist.
Elika leans down to her ear and asked "Why don't you tell Uncle chief what you told me?",
Pai looked out towards her brother, their eyes connected as she made a little smile closing her eyes taking a deep breath for a child her size.
Pai then holding on to Raga with both her arms said "I want to stay with Grandpa, stop bullying him".
Hoku's face when paled, seeing as little sister turn her face from the crowd upon looking at his face from the distance.
"N…no…th…is…cant be rigth… right?" Hoku mumbled barely able to get the words out,
Tears streaming down his face muddying up his chin with the ground and his tears mixed together. Tetso clenches fists together till sparks started to fly.
replied to her "Okay my child… if that is, what you wish".
