(With Kai lying on the ground Reyna observed him and decided now's not the time for a nap she uses her breath to blow in Kai's face making the air as cold as possible, suddenly Kai sits up dazed and confused about what just happened.)
Kai: What just happened I thought I was walking and the next moment I'm eating dirt?
Reyna: You see what happened is we were walking then this centaur woman came out of nowhere and knocked you out, you're very lucky to be alive in fact.
(The centaur walks over to Kai to check on him and in the distance another centaur is rushing towards her.)
Male Centaur: (Standing 8feet high having light brown eyes and long light brown hair tied behind his head wearing a normal shirt and armor covering his lower horse body)
Meamiru what have you done why did you storm off like that you could have killed someone. (Looking over to Kai) oh no you did hit somebody?
Meamiru: (Standing 7'2 feet tall wearing a green blouse and a black cloth over her lower half giving the appearance of a dress having the same light brown hair as the other centaur and having hazel eyes) Sorry Minato I can explain.
(Meamiru approaches Kai and tries to apologize to him and offer an explanation for why she stormed off like that Minato is eager to hear the explanation as well.)
Meamiru: (Helping Kai up) I'm so sorry I can explain all of this.
Kai: Please do because I'm at a loss here lady.
Meamiru: Call me Meamiru, you see the thing is the village witch told me that I should run and close my eyes and I will find love so I did exactly what she said but I'm beginning to think she was trying to kill me instead, but then again I did run into you so maybe you are my true love?
Kai: First off that sound like a traffic accident, secondly you could have just asked for a date and not try to kill me first!
Minato: (Bowing to Kai) please sir forgive my foolish sister she's always listening to the village witch she proclaims to see our villages future and she's quite mad.
Reyna: She has to be to give somebody advice like that I mean what if she fell off a cliff?
Meamiru: I didn't think of that, please sir you may get on my back and ride with me to our village and spend the night there.
(Minato looking at Meamiru in shock and surprise)
Kai: Thanks but we'll walk to your village I'm aware of centaur tradition if I accept it's like accepting a marriage proposal because only those you truly share a close bond with may ride you and if somebody were to ride you without your permission it would be violating you, so just lead the way.
(Everyone looks surprised at Kai for knowing centaur customs)
Minato: S-sir how did you know that?
Kai: My grandpa told me he was caught off guard like that once.
Minato: I-I see will you then still accompany us to our village it's not far from here.
Kai: What do you think Reyna?
Reyna: Sure why not could be fun I heard that the legendary Excalibur is here and you're the guardians of it.
Meamiru: Yes we'll even show it to you as an apology.
Kai: Then let's go I could use a bath right about now after eating dirt.
(Kai and the others go to the village to rest and recuperate and to see the mighty Excalibur that is famed by legend. Kai and the others enter the village and go first to the chief to tell him what happened, Meamiru explains everything to the chief and the chief sighs at her for listening to the village witch. The chief was bigger than the other centaurs standing 9feet tall and was not wearing a shirt his hair was grey braided behind his head )
Chief: How many times have I told you Meamiru don't listen to the witch or take her too literally sometimes she might even be joking with you.(He hangs his head)
Meamiru: I know but I did meet this traveler with his companion so maybe it was meant to be?
Chief: (Looking at Kai covered in dust and dirt.) Maybe but just look at the poor man he needs a bath and by the looks of it clean clothes.
Kai: Thanks a bath would be nice and the clothes were clean until somebody decided to run me over.
Meamiru: (Feeling ashamed) I'm so very sorry I'll wash and dry your clothes myself.
Kai: Fine I can agree to that.
Chief: Then it is settled, now Meamiru show Kai to the bathes and Minato see to his companion, Meamiru will give you clothes to wear while she washes yours.
(Meamiru gives Kai robes to wear while she washes and dries his clothes. While Kai and Reyna wait the go around the village and spend their day walking around and asking for Irene's whereabouts it's reveals that she has her own villa and she's helping humans and demi humans alike and even offers them protection from those who would harm them, late in the afternoon Meamiru brings Kai his clothes he dresses and the convince him to go with them to see the famed sword Excalibur. They travel to the mountain where its located and they see a sword just floating a few inches off the ground it looks like you could just pick it up and move it if you wanted, the blade was platinum in color, the fuller was filled with crimson metal, the guard was bent down facing the direction of the blade and looked like dragon wings, the grip was also a crimson color and it had the appearance of dragon scales, the pommel resembled the head of the red dragon king, from the guard to the tip og the blade was an inscription of runes witch read "Power Comes In Response To A Need Not A Desire." The total length of the blade was 120cm(47.2inches).)
Kai: (Amazed at the craftsmanship of the blade) This is a beautiful weapon truly fit for a king or a great hero of tales.
Reyna: (Shocked) I-it's truly the blade that was forged from the Red Dragon Kings very essence and life force.
Meamiru: What do you mean?
Reyna: Very long ago even before I was born the dragons ruled over the world most did not mind humans and demi humans the even helped and aided them being a friend to them and among them there was one extraordinary dragon who was loved by the humans he was the Red Dragon King his power was that of legend. But there was those who also saw other life as inferior to dragons and the strongest among those dragons was the White Dragon Emperor, he and the red dragon king had a fierce battle but the red dragon king was severely wounded knowing his death was eminent his father the Fire Dragon Emperor used all his knowledge and that of all the races to try and save his son but knowing he could not dwarves were famous for their magic and ability to forge weapons. The Fire Emperor tasked them to create a sword and to seal his son inside the blade to save his son at the very least. The dwarves agreed and used metals from around the world to create the blade it was forged in the fire of dragons fire breath to forge the ultimate unbreakable blade and lastly the sealed the soul and essence of the Red Dragon King to the blade but the blade had a personality of its own only granting it's power to those it deems worthy to possess the power of a dragon it was only granted once to an unknown hero who fought the white dragon emperor defeating him and banishing him from the dragon kingdom, and ever since then the blade has never taken another as it's wielder and has been here for many years. I always thought my mother was only telling me a bed time story and I never thought it existed.
Meamiru: you sure know your history Reyna that is true in fact we centaurs have been guarding it for many generations.
Kai: It sounds very special let's not take up any more of their time and go, Irene is waiting for us.
Reyna: Stop right there aren't you gonna try and wield it I mean it is a powerful weapon ya know!
Kai: No
Reyna: Fine then I will wield it.
(Reyna flies to the sword and grabs the hilt and tries to lift it but the blade rejects and sends out a lightning bolt and she is electrocuted and lies on the ground, Kai looks and helps her up, when he is close to the weapon a red magic circle appears from the blade Kai hears a voice but ignores it the circle disappears and Reyna talks to Kai.)
Reyna: Why won't you try to wield it?
Kai: And get electrocuted like you? No thanks I'm good.
Reyna: All jokes aside give me a straight answer Kai.
Kai: (In a serious tone.) These weapons aren't meant for commoners like me they are only reserved for those of royal blood or that have a great purpose here, which is not me I'm nobody I'm no prince charming and sure as hell no knight in shining armor I don't get the princess or the girl and when I die I won't be mourned only forgotten this is not a story book ending no one falls for the mistake that's why I know I'm not worthy of this power so best not to waste time.
(Kai leaves Excalibur and everyone there his voice was sad and lonely as he finished his final words, he heads in the woods to clear his mind, Meamiru follows Kai into the woods, Minato stays with Reyna to recover and takes her to the village it's already dusk. Kai was sitting by the lake staring at the sky as Meamiru approached him.)
Meamiru: You know you shouldn't go off alone like this somebody might want to accompany you.
Kai: Like who exactly?
Meamiru: (Sitting next to Kai) Like me, I want to confess something I thought when I hit you I killed you and I saw you in a dream Excalibur showed me an image of you so I ran as fast as I could it wasn't the village witch that sent me.
Kai: Look I'm no chosen one never have been and never will It even rained on the day I was born not even a sunshine day just a rainy day.
Meamiru: Hmm (whispers at Kai) I love the rain it's nice and to dance in it is wonderful, don't sell yourself short you have helped many on your path and you will be missed by them the will always think off you now that they met you. (Holding Kai's hand) just believe in yourself and always stay strong you are more than you think I can see the kindness in your eyes.
Kai: Thanks Meamiru(looks in her eyes) nobody has ever said something nice like that to me in a while.
Meamiru: I know we just met and it was bold of me to assume such things I apologize for it.
(Kai and Meamiru spend the night by the lake and talked the whole night away suddenly it was morning and Kai realized he had to get going to Irene's villa to find answers to his questions. Kai and Meamiru gets up and head back to the village to find Reyna so they can be on their way. Reyna is already waiting for Kai.)
Reyna: (Looks at Kai) you know you might not get all the human women but you sure do get all the cute demi humans so cheer up my champion.
Kai: Haha you're right Reyna now let's go get our questions answerd.
Reyna: Oh yeah let's go!
(Kai and Reyna say their farewells and depart for Irene's villa it' just a single days walk to there a straight shot to get answers)
