Chapter 44 - Revenge set on the mind

Frost stood still in the house waiting for someone to walk in. "Hurry up, come on, come on!! I know your getting closer and closer you damn bastard!" He said.

He heard a knock on the door. He got up and quickly sprinted over to the door.

When he opined it, a man was holding what looked to be pasta with Alfredo sauce.

"It's about damn time!" Frost yelled.

"You try telling a old lady to hurry up and get her purse, it's rude ya know!" The man yelled back.

"Just give me my food." Frost demanded. Frost held out his hand.

The guy grabbed the food and put it over frost's hand and threw it inside the house.

Frost grabbed body sides of his face and started rolling on the ground in agony.

"No, no, no!! There's no way you just did that!!" Frost yelled out.

"Screw you man. I walked not one, but two damn hours and this is the thanks I get?"

"Screw your two hours, man. I wanted my chicken! And not it's on the floor!!" Frost yelled in a high pitched voice.

"Eat it off the floor like the trash you are!" The man yelled back as he started walking away.

First put on his shoes and started walking after the man.

"Hey, hey, you better make me a new damn pasta!!" Frost yelled.

Before he could get any closer to the man, Udo swooped up Frost and started carrying him off into the opposite direction.

"Udo, what the hell are you doing?! He just threw my damn food out!" Frost yelled in Udo's ear.

"This is something serious. Just shut up and listen." Udo snapped.

Udo let go of Frost and put him behind an abounded building.

"What's the situation?" Frost asked.

"I received this…it went through my window and into my bed while sleeping this Morning."

Udo reached behind him and pulled out a baseball with ice in it.

Frost could feel his heart drop. "You said it came through your window?" Frost asked in a serious tone.

"Yep. Do you know what this crap means or not? It has ice on it, so I assumed you did it or something." Udo explained.

Frost looked up at the sky. (That's two…three means the worse.)

"Are you listening!?" Udo yelled.

"Oh, sorry Captain. It's just…I didn't expect you to catch me!! I'm sorry for throwing it at the building. I was playing around with some friends!" Frost explained with a huge smile on his face.

"I see. Well then, you'll be cleaning that shit up. I'm not doing it. It better be clean by the time I get back." Udo said.

"Where're you going? Frost asked as Udo walked away.

"To visit my mother's grave. Along with my family's grave. I'll be back shortly!" Udo said.

When Udo disappeared Frost grabbed his long hair and tied it back up. "There's not way…your coming back to fight?! I haven't heard from you in so long…but three means war!" Frost said to himself.

Frost grabbed the ball and stared at it. He once again, could see beautiful green grass and blood on a field.

(You'll never be king…your too weak!)

Frost remember those words clearly. "Weak…weak." Frost tightened his grip around the ball in anger and disgust.

Frost put the ball away and walked over to the nursing care where Jade and Xavier were.

He opened the door to see them both passed out on their beds.

"Where the hell is Summer and Adisa? There's never communication!"

A man came out of the shadows. It was Trover.

"Trover!?"

"Yo."

"You've been sitting here all day?" Frost asked.

"Nah. Ever since they've gotten here."

"I see. How have you been? And did you go get some therapy?" Frost asked.

"Screw therapy. Doesn't help me at all. But I'm all good. Still a little shocked, but I'll be alright." Trover said.

"I've been meaning to ask you…but why the hell were you captured? Like, why did that want you so bad?"

"Because…I apparently have what they need. Or I should say…what Adisa needs." Trover said.

He pulled up a chair and sat down. "It's weird. I didn't know he had powers. I thought he was a human. But, when I was captured they talked about how he's a vessel for something. And that something needs all their power in order to survive. So then, for them to survive…they need the percents. Apparently there's five of us. I have fifteen, while Summer girl has around fifty or so." Trover explained.

"Why can't we just let the thing inside of him die?" Frost asked.

"Frost, if the being inside of Adisa dies then…he'll die also."

"So what do we do about the percents?"

"At a certain point…if he doesn't get the percents then he'll die. So at one point…one of us will have to die to keep him moving." Trover said.

Frost fell into silence and lowered his head while sitting down.

"Damn it."

Frost stood up and stared out the window. "So much stuff is happening…to everyone. All because of this thing inside of Adisa." Frost said to himself.

"It's not like we can do anything about it. Unless we…well never mind." Trover said.

"What we're you about to say?" Frost asked.

Trover said nothing. He grabbed his sword staff and walked over to the door.

"Frost. Always take care of your friends. No matter what. As of now…I'm in a dark place in my life. Bella's dead, Xavier is still knocked out, Jerome is missing, and my own friend might lead me to my death. I care about each and everyone of you…believe me. But if it came down to it…I won't hesitate to bring you down." Trover said with a glare.

"I see. You, Nzinga, Xavier,Jerome, Jade, And Adisa. You all are-"

Frost was interrupted by screaming outside the building.

He took a look at Trover and nodded his head.

They both launched themselves out the window and landed on the sandy ground outside.

Frost looked up to see ten soldiers with ice like armor on them.

"The Frost clan?" Trover asked himself.

Frost ignored the soldiers and took a peek behind them.

There was a body of a woman. It was Nzinga.

Anger filled up Frost as he lunged at the ten soldiers.

Frost stabbed one in the throat and watched as he got back up.

"Ice sword!"

Frost moved swiftly through each soldier and cut each one up. One by one.

Trover leaped into the air over Frost and brought him staff down hard on the head of a soldier.

Frost and Trover took a step back and studied each one.

"It's like they aren't even human!" Frost said.

"Something's not right….I could have sworn you stabbed each and everyone of them." Trover said.

Both of them were surrounded with nowhere to go.

All of a sudden a deep voice came from behind them. They both turned around to see a tall man with deep blue eyes.

"Man…this clan is hell of easy to break into." The man said.

"Who there'll are you!? And what are you doing here!?" Trover asked in a panicked tone.

"We are here to collect Frost." The man said.

Frost had a panicked look on his face.

"It's about time you came home to your real family, boy! the man said.

In a flash the man ended up behind Trover and knocked him out cold.

"I believe you knew we were coming. So why would you come all the way to the back of the clan…where no one is and not say anything to your captain before he left? You sure are your father's son!" The man said.

Frost tried to fight back. But noticed his wrist was tied up.

The ten guards carried him off and away from the clan.

Frost couldn't say anything as he was drifting off into a deep sleep.

(They must have….put something on the…cloth)

Frost was half awake when he notice himself being carried away.

"Don't you dare take me there!" He yelled out to the man in front of the soldier is carrying him.

"I have no choice. Not my orders, your majesty!" The man said.

Just then, Frost heard footsteps approaching from behind. Almost like running.

The man turned around to see nothing and the turned back around to see Nzinga.

The man ordered all the soldiers to stop and put Frost down.

Nzinga had a crooked smile on her face and blood everywhere on her. She had her curly hair covering one eye and showing off the other eye that was wide open.

"I thought I killed you!" The man said while laughing.

"How in the hell are you still alive!? I stabbed you and much more. I watched you die, woman!"

Nzinga started laughing.

"Frost, do you know about your father? His plan I mean. You see. He wants to kill you and use your eyes, that have great potential and use your body to fight off the Kani clan and others for domination and land. Frost, he wants to use you as a weapon to kill your own home. That's not right…right?" Nzinga explained.

"Are you being serious right now? How are you even living!!" The man said.

Nzinga lifted up her shirt to show all the wounds that have been healed.

"How in the-" the man choked on fear.

"I've also realized something. But while we were fighting those men didn't say anything or die. They must be corpses….which means. I can help them rest easily now!" Nzinga said.

"Kill her!!" The man yelled.

All ten of the soldiers ran at Nzinga. Without any movement at all. All of them bursted open with guts flying everywhere.

Nzinga started laughing uncontrollably.

The man took a couple of steps back. "Damn it. How the hell did she know these were corpse !?"

Nzinga jumped in the air and flipped upside down with blood running from her face.

"I figured out your plan by doing good investigation work. But now we know who are real enemy is at the moment. So we'll just kill the king of the frost clan and live our lives!" Nzinga said as she floated upside down.

The man started running in the opposite direction.

Nzinga pointed her sword at the man's back and said "grow" she watched as the sword penetrated the man's lifeless body.

"Yay!! I got him, right on the spot too!" Nzinga said with the happiest face in the world.

Frost looked in amazement. "She's so damn powerful. And it's like she's a child having fun on a playground….amazing!"

Nzinga helped Frost off the ground and went over to the man's body.

"What are you doing?" Frost asked.

"Frost, I know you knew that the clan was coming. Why didn't you say anything to Udo?"

"I don't know." Frost answered.

Nzinga turned her head around quickly. Her beautiful earrings glowed in the sunlight. "Let me guess. You want revenge, huh?" She asked with a smile on her face.

Frost balled up his first and bit his tongue in anger.

"If what you said is true then…I have no choice but to kill my father!" Frost said with a killer look.

"I had that same look when my family abandoned me, Frost. It seems our goals are the same." Nzinga reassured.

"What do you mean?"

"We both want our families dead. But my family can come another time. For now, the main priority is…to kill the king of Frost clan. I'll help you on this mission." She said.

Frost felt a sense of relief go throughout his body.

"Just know something. When it actually comes to it…do you think you've got what it takes to kill the person that helped bring you into this world?" Nzinga asked Frost with a serious look.

Frost took a moment and closed his eyes shut.

He could remember all the terrible things his father has done to him…and to other people.

Frost opened his eyes. They were lighter than before.

"I won't hesitate! I'm going to bring down that whole damn system! Frost clan needs a new leader. I'll take the throne, and make peace with everyone!" Frost said with determination in his eyes.

"Hmph. You know the clan better than anyone else. When should we start this beautiful mission?" Nzinga asked Frost.

"As soon as Trover gets too his feet We'll head out."

"Will do. But until then…I'm gonna talk to Udo. Can't leave without his permission. And you need to hurry up and bury these people. They need a peaceful rest. Then we can go." Nzinga ordered.

Nzinga disappeared. Leaving Frost by himself with the ten bodies.

"Forgive me." He whispered.
