* Back to the Final Training Competition~~~~~
Young Tron's POV:
Where is that kid? He's supposed to be here, he said he'll cheer for me and even said he'll be sitting in the front seat waving at me. But looking everywhere.. he's nowhere to be found. I guess he just got so much body pain from the First Round Yesterday. He mentioned that to me Yesterday. We'll he's still a little a kid, and judging from the opponent he got fight with, his opponent was 2x bigger than him. But I'm glad he was able to pass the first round. So, maybe he's just resting somewhere for some time. I refocused my mind on the Task. Whatever, it'll be I have to pass this round.
*The fight began~~~~πππππ‘βοΈ
Their were three bigger opponents around me. I can't attack them one by one because that'll be time consuming and my back got sprained yesterday as my opponent cheated and hid extra weights (metal) in his armour. Making him extra heavy and hard to fight with. Luckily I was able to kick him where he didn't have much coverings (metal) and just as I kicked him in there, I also pushed him extra hard on the floor making him crash. And because of his fall some of his coverings went out. Although he had much bigger points than me. I was called a winner because he cheated. After that, my back ached till now. Now, I need to be extra careful with my moves and body, as some of them might have been hiding a plan too.
*The counting began... (I was in the observing mode closing my eyes, and using only my senses)
THREE... (I could hear their grasp on their sword and shield get tighter
TWO... (They move their feet in synch, as if they were bulls about to run someone over....)
ONE... (I opened my eyes and knew exactly what to do..) They were gonna come at me together. For a second I thought it was unfair to fight three opponents at once, much more if they were bigger than you. But I thought Β the outside world where Monsters are lurking, would only make it easy to say I'm lucky I'm only fighting with three humans. It is known that Monsters would attack in the most unexpected time and would come at you by hordes. We'll they say most of the time they would come by hordes, and only a few would actually attack alone. It is said that the reason is, because they know attacking by hordes makes them more powerful. These Monsters who come by Hordes are dumb and the weak ones who only knows how to eat and hunt its next prey. But those few who could attack alone are called advanced and that they have been living for thousand of years, making them the "originals" of these Monsters. They are the rare ones. And had been seen 30 decades ago, now no one had seen them recently. The three opponents came at me, I slid down sideways, then got back up and kicked the first one in the head then back. The other two came running towards me, the other in front and the other behind my back. I dodged their strike making them bump on each other in the head. They came again to me, but I got to the other first, then caught him by his armor (vest) pulled him upwards then slammed him backwards bumping him again with the other opponent. It was striking two birds with one stone move. Yes he was heavier than me, but my strength is five times my size. That's why people call me "Lehendarillo"(with legendary hands. The bell rang, and I was again introduced as the winner. I don't really know why I have this ability, but I'll never be more thankful for actually having it. Some call me a Monster for having it, but more people believe that it is a gift with a great responsibility to take. I found it out at the age of 5. It was one afternoon when my Dad and I went out to hunt for Rabbits. It was the first time he took me with him to help him out. I was excited and happy since I'll finally experience what it's like to hunt rabbits. Truth is, I love Rabbits as pets, but since other Animals got eaten by Monsters because they were easily seen and couldn't hide without being seen. Rabbit's were the only animals left. There are squirrels but they never go out, outside their houses (trees) so unless you cut down the tree, they'll never get out. And since Rabbits live inside holes they are much easier to hunt rather than squirrels. That afternoon, it was my youngest sister's birthday. That's why we wanted to hunt and bring home Rabbits as much as we can. As we were almost done. We saw another Rabbit just near me. I was smiling happily and ask my father if I could hunt it on my own. He agreed with it and had a large smile on his face. I went for it, as quiet and sneakily as possible as I could. It was just staring at me and observing as if he just wanted me to get more closer. As I was almost reaching for it. It suddenly ran, I went for it because I didn't want to disappoint my father. He told me to just let it go but my determined ass wanted to keep going for it. I ran as fast as I could to catch the rabbit, then suddenly it stopped, beside a bush. That bush was the biggest bush I have ever seen in my life. I got happy as I could finally catch it, but before I could touch it... it was pulled away by something inside the bush. I was taken aback and shocked by what I saw. Then I saw something long as if it was a snake... it had scales on it. I went to look closer at it and wanted to get it, because if it's just a snake then it's easy to kill it. And since it ate my Rabbit then I would bring it home instead. (P.S snakes can also be eaten). When I grabbed it. It growled at me. πΉ I was shocked by what I saw. It... it was a Monster. I have never seen Monsters before, as it was my first time going out of our house. It was going to bit me, but before it could happen my Dad came the exact time. Instead of me, my Dad's arms got bit. It was horrifying seeing that my Dad's arms were now missing. He was bleeding, I was scared but instead of being scared I pulled my Dad as far from that Monster. We hid beside a huge stone that was as if it was a cave but it wasn't. It was full of grasses and branches. It was too narrow that the opening entrance was only inches from us. My Dad was bleeding too much, as if he was about to pass out but he was trying to hold on. From a distance I could hear the Monsters Growl and flapping wings. I was shaking from fright but I never want my Dad to die that's why I have to be able to find a way for us to survive. A few minutes later, I couldn't hear the Monster's growl or flapping wings anymore. I took a peek outside if ever it was just near us. But it was not. So, I told my Dad about it, then we both got out. Just as we were far from the cave and near the woods.. I could hear the Monster growling again. I took my Dad to sit down first, then looked at what the Monster was doing. My eyes went wide open when I finally realized, the reason why I couldn't hear the flapping wings was because the Monster was now walking instead, he was smelling and tracing the blood where it was going. Then it looked straight into where the blood trace was going.... leading to us. Its eyes and mine locked. I hurily picked my Dad took his other arms around me and tried to ran as fast as we could. The Monster was still chasing us. We kept running and running until we got into a dead end. It was a clift, a five hundred meters deep clift. I was thinking about jumping off the clift, but my Dad says it's too dangerous. And said that I should just leave him alone and go run home instead.
I got down on my knees and started crying....
Young harold: But Dad I don't want to (sobbing)
Harold's Dad: You have to.... This is the only way right now. You're still young and you can do many amazing things in your life, don't waste it for this. Unlike me, I'm already an old man and wounded too. You should just go Harold. (Putting his hands on my shoulders while tears falling down his eyes). Tell your Mom and siblings that I love them, and ask forgiveness from your little sister, because I could never make her birthday special. Instead, I made it a traumatic event.
Young Harold: I'm sorry Dad. This is all my fault. π’
Harold's Dad : No it isn't. Don't blame yourself. I was the one who's irresponsible for all of this.
Young Harold: No it's mine. And I'm gonna take full responsibility for this, by helping you and making everything alright. Come on Dad.
(Pulling his other arms around me, we started walking and found a safe spot, then I put him to sit down beside a tree.)
"Now I want you to stay here" I told my Dad. He was hesitant at first, but I wanted him to believe in me again as I let him down the first time he believed in me. Now I want it to work out. I torn a piece of cloth from my shirt then wrap Dad's wounded arms, then took another piece of the cloth to wipe the blood that dripped down. I took it near the clift, then threw it on the ground. Then.....
The monster came and I was waiting for the perfect timing. Just as he was so invested with the smell of blood on the cloth. I went behind him and gathered all the strength I had because, If I fail, there will be no more second chance. And when I got all strength I need, I pushed it towards the clift. He fell and I got happy that my plan worked, but I forgot these Monster could fly. It came back after me, but luckily I saw a big branch beside me. I quickly picked it up and just as he was going to get me, I closed my eyes and swung the big branch as strong as I could to hit it. Everything happens so fast that I couldn't quite recalculate what happened. It was as if things happened in a 20x transition. I opened my eyes, and got shock that I actually hit that Monster right in eye to the skull. My eyes went wide open at the scene of it, that's when I realized I had an extraordinary strength. After that me and my Dad got home safely.
