Chapter 5 - On The Way

We rode our horses slowly as we moved through the roads in the thick and dense forest. On both sides we could see ninjas and other dignitaries performing their daily tasks.

"Seems that there is an accident there" I said pointing out. Of course there was as we could still perceive the stench of blood from the horses.

"Is that not Moses' cloak " Kay asked as she bent and picked it up.

"Let's me have a look" I said collecting it. I pressed the cloak against my nose and perceived it. It was his scent. I raised my eyes in alarm.

"What the heck happened to them" I asked looking at Kay.

"How do you expect me to know" she asked throwing the question back at me.

"We need to find them!!"

"But first regain your memory. Without it I don't think I can do much" she replied.

" What do you mean"I asked surprised.

" You know Innoculus more than I do. You've been there for more than a year. I need you to regain back your memory. You understand now? " she asked looking at me

" I do" I replied back in a cool tone" With that, we went.

"They're here lord"Moses said as his men brought the trio who was very much awake. They were bound in chains together.

"Well done my faithful servant" Cent Na Hir said to Moses. He looked at three three men kneeling before him.

"Ooh Mufasa, you seem to grow more foolish with experience" Cent said looking at the old man.

" It requires a special kind of idiot to do that Mr Hir" Mufasa replied.

"So sorry Mufasa when did you become that foolish" Cent asked caressing his sword.

" Since I met you" he replied immediately. BOOM!! There was tension in the air immediately Mufasa said that. The ninjas who were at the door were waiting in fear for Cent's reaction. It would be death penalty they all guessed for having insulted Cent Na Hir. That means their old master would die. Cent was provoked anyway but over the years he had learned how to control his anger.

"Unbind him and keep him in the waiting room. " he said. With that the ninjas broke the chain and took him.

" Ooh dear Lucas, your father would be so ashamed of you"

" So what business do you have with my father" Lucas asked facing Cent.

" Your father and I are best friends. I killed my two sons because they couldn't take up on my legacy. Even the man I found worthy and raised ditched me but I killed him. " he said bending down to face him. Lucas knew the person he was talking about was no one else but Tony.

"Don't be so sure, today may be the last day of your life. " Okoh said facing him.

" Even if it is, I've lived a long life. Longer than you can ever imagine. " he replied.

" Don't you think that they're chances Tony may come back from the dead?; just like I did" Lucas asked.

" Don't be fooled boy, the reason you came back from the dead was because you're the devil's son. And hell is like your home. You can come and leave anytime, anyhow, anywhere. " he explained in his cool demonic tone.

" Would you mind if I stab you" he asked raising the demon sword. A special type of sword.

"Try" Lucas replied arrogantly showing off his demonic aura. Just as Cent was about to stab , four ninjas ran inside the room. Their masks were torn open as blood drooled through their facial natural openings.

"What is it?" Cent asked surprised.

"... Za... Zair Na Hir is alive!!, he's back for revenge" one of the ninjas said finally finding his voice. This time Cent's eyes opened wide in stark terror as he processed the information.

"Take them" he said putting his sword back in place as he followed the ninja.
