It lasted only a fraction of a second . The trio regain their consciousness. They didn't waste time to observe their surrounding.
The found themselves in a simple room all what we have of ordinary . Simple with a bed cupboard and kitchen and the necesary .
Rider caressed the cupboard as if understanding something . " Dust . It seem this place have not been be used for a while .. " he remarked .
What was stranger was their attire . They where all dress in ancient Dred that dated to several thousand of years where western and Cherie still existed .
It seem like they had returned to the far ouest . " Have we travelled back in time ?? . Impossible . could you is be just a dream ?? " He wandered not sure of anything . He still had to investigate more .
" Yes. what is this ?? " Lisa moved closer and examined the lots of paper spread aimlessly around the room wall .
The wall covered in images of various objects and people . It was easy to get lost . Without any need to explain anything they knew it was some sort of tracking .
Now the question was who was tracking who and why . This immediately began tormenting Rider .
He was sure if they had been sent here the tree was surely a reason . Hence he began examining the papers .
" this are results from an otompsi that dates to several years back privately 36 years ago . It seem like a series of strange occurrence happened policy the dead of several innocent . The case hasn't be solved as no culprit was arrested . " Rider explained to the group after bief reading .
" Sitting on a chair with his arm cross Stain looked incredulous . " Don't tell me we have travelled back in time to be detective wright ?_? "
For all of them it was clear that if they where here it mean all this case currently had a relation with the puzel of time .
" All up this is related to the puzel of time . The voice said we had 136day for 136 fragments . we don't have time to waste . " Leon accentuated ever one fear .
" So all this bulshiy us actually real " Stain became agitated . Why was he embarked in all this nonsense .
" they I got d something interesting " Lisa brought a pile of document to the three who where instantly chocked .
So fast , she seem quite invested in all this . May be I should do same . Rider thought . The faster the finished with this the faster he could return to his family .
" The incident occurred on the crepuscle of the third moon . " She said seriously .
The trio looked awkwardly as no one knew about the crepuscle of the third moon . Leon eyes flashed.
" The crepuscle Is a ritual in Hiati religion that announce the dead of people. In their religion it occurred every thirty years . It is said that during that full moon a genocide is always commuted to appease the gods . " He said seriously .
" What a genocide ??? " Rider asked shocked . Unbelievable he thought . Thus wasn't normal at all .
" The reason is simple in their culture it is a way of protecting and gracing the generation with blessing . It is said that this is mainly to protect their people " He added continuing his story .
" Protecting their people from what ?? " Lisa asked not comprehending the meaning behind all this .
" That's all I know . I have accidentally read this in a book . I didn't read further . " He instantly stopped then from assaulting him with questions.
"its said in this report that . Sharif jones was the one in charge of figuring this out . but imagine what ?? " Lisa asked adding more suspense .
" Say it already . we don't have all the day . " Stain urged her . He was already unwillingly to stay here so ...
" Captain jones actually investigated but found nothing . But what is interesting is this wasn't the first time and he was always the one a signed to this but never discovered anything . " Lisa finally poured out everything .
" Don't you find it strange ??? ." Lisa inquired with a huge smile . She was the one making things to move till one .
" Of course it is . but I don't understand why he has always been assigned to it if he couldn't find any thing . We should go give him a visit . " Rider who had been calmly listening till now added as he stood .
Observing his watch he saw that it was already 12 am . It means they had only 12 hours left to find the first fragment.
" Shouldn't we be searching for those fragment things ?? " stain inquired not understanding their behavior .
" It's surely related . Lets all go to find that Sharif jones . " Rider left the room after he end . He didn't have time to waste.
Followed by Stai , Lisa and Leon . The group left what seem to be their QG. As they moved along the wooden corridor . The wood was old and continuosly creek .
Causing an grinding sound that responded all over the inn. This attracted the attention of many resident .
Crack....a door by their side opened and a man emerged from in . The first thing they saw was his bare torso. It was clear he has been sleeping .His large beard untreated.
He looked more like a man from the paliozoyic age . his eyes looked aimlessly and finally locked on the group .
" be careful here many don't like noise " That's all he said before closing his door back .
" Hey who do you think you are ?? " Stain unjustly became agitated . His blood seem to be boiling ready to fight at any moment .
Rider frown . He didn't know why but this man seemed ...." Nay be am over thinking " he though . without further ado they group finally left the inn .
Outside the sun shone brightly illuminating the whole area . It felt refreshing for all of them to feel it delicate touch on their face . As if being caressed by a divine being .
They found themselves in the city center . The roads where bustling with people moving in and fort .
The joyful laughter of the children running errands filled the atmosphere making Rider involuntarily smile .
