34 YEARS AGO
" They are here for you" Mu Song yelled at the fallen Weng Xing who crouched holding unto his belly as he kept viomiting blood.... this crow was indeed dangerous! He slowly looked up in weakness as he watched the crow fly with a dreaded light charging towards him, he tried to move his body but couldn't...huh? he moved again and still received the same thing. He was numb on his legs and couldn't work " The bounding spell" he inwardly cried struggling to get up but was still held down severally and Xhou sighting his struggles released a pile of spiritual white spikes on the crow getting him distracted and swinging his white whip on the crow, encircling it and pulling him down. He creates a blue cage thrusting it on the black crow and caging it brutally feeding dust to it, the black crow struggled to get free from it's shackles, to break loose from this madness but the white power was dominating it fiercely that it finally calmed down like a balloon pierced with a needle ready for retribution for it's sins " he looks humble unlike that black owl" Mu Song with an intrigued expression said waving his paper fan on himself like nothing occured.... what was the black owl? It was once a spy before it's death by an unknown force till this day.
Weng finally gets back on his feet but he ended up crawling towards the scene to have a clearer view of the crow, the crow appeared the night his parents died a very cruel death, the night his misery started and won't be ending... this darn crow was enjoying the view and scene of how his parents died . The thought of it alone ignited the boiling volcano in him ready to erupt and ready to melt everything around him but an ice dropped on him which calmed him instantly, it was Xhou's warm palm that dropped on his shoulder trying to wad off the fire struggling to burn and devour carnally " we will cage him and torture him with the seven thorns of revenge" Xhou for the first time said a soothing word to Weng Xing, it was getting late and there is already a possibility that his family were looking for him.
"Let's go home" Xhou said the"home" softly to remind Weng that he wasn't alone anymore and such assurance made Weng and Xhan to smile deeply " Let's go home" Weng replied putting his slender arms forth for Xhou to help him stand and Xhou willingly helped him. Such action alone made their eyes to lock together forming deep emotions which they couldn't understand themselves " I will be carrying the crow" Xhan coughed seeing the atmosphere was oppressing him , he pointed at the crow who was watching the black and white with joy....he was totally enjoying the chemistry between the two and he wished he would find his soulmate soon but was it still possible? he has already been captured and there was no going back or coming out alive especially now Weng Xing was involved too.
" My time is up I believe" he spoke out his thoughts aloud alerting everyone " He...he...spoke?" Xhan stammered,he has seen alot strange occurrances enough already " Crowing crow or crying crow... which is preferable?" the annoying voice of Mu Song chipped in " Boring cat,no wonder the Lion King threw you on an exile" the crow mocked angering Mu Song who Changed into a white cat and slapping his it's tail on the crow. It was really fun watching animals fight and exchange words " you damn cat" the crow yelled beaking Mu Song fiercely from the blue cage but Mu Song kept slapping him brutally with it's tail " shut up shut up crying crow" he hissed as they kept fighting " I think we need to cage the cat" Weng casually Said folding his arms with a smile and His words made Xhou smile inwardly.
* * *...* * *
" Where have you been Xhou?" Lord Zao's voice coldly snorted as soon as the trio entered carrying both animals in different spiritual cages, the cat was in his own world mumbling and murmuring like someone who has been offended while the crow kept getting on his nerves " and isn't that crow of exodus?" the bewildered King asked attracting the elders present. Okay....this was really the attention Xhou zao hated in the conference hall, the looks of the elders can take you to Hades and kill you, burning you alive over and over again " What evil has fallen on Dijin again?" one of the elders asked his voice mighty and filled with unbearable disgust " what do you mean by again?" Xhou coldly asked the elder with eyes piercing Making the elder to swallow hard before looking away then he averted his gaze at his Father " We caught him that's all" Xhou replied his aura emitting irritated caution which never went unnoticed by everyone .
And to calm the awkwardness that surrounded the hall, Lord zao asked Xhou to open the Crow's cage after inflicting a weak mechanism on the crow who grunted in horror. It stumbled flat with it's two legs upwards in a funny way making the cat to roar into laughter attracting surprised looks on his damn self, what in the world was happening right now? " Keep quiet" Xhan said mouthing his words to avoid suspicion but this Damn cat kept laughing having the yet curious eyes from the elders.
" Look how you attracted attention" the crow muttered this time bringing the cat back to it's lost senses, Xhan and Weng Xing covered their mouth to avoid been caught laughing and of course it attracted the blazing eyes of Xhou on them. Weng rolled his eyes feeling disgusted as he muttered '"Boring" ,how can a prince be this boring and anti social? he will keep spreading news about him if he insists with this lame Chasity " Hi' the cat greeted even in an awkward aura like this, he unlocks the cage himself making it funnier for Xhan and Weng.
It was the audacity and impetus for them, the bravery of this cat was highly favored and on another level, the lack of fear that has grown deep roots inside of him " why are you all staring at me like I ate a forbidden fruit?" he asked walking on it's four legs, swaying to the rhythm of it's tail which was undoubtedly gracious and heavenly " Where did you get this strange cat from?" Lord Zao asked amused by the audacity of this cat. " It is not strange cat....it is king of cats" he finalized with power forming into an alluring beauty on white and green robes combined with the finest green eyes good for hypnotizing, he held out his fan under his face and his hairpin made of Sapphire was an eye catcher. His long Black hair reached the ground and he stood emitting an aura that was warm but heavenly as he waved the fan on himself giving them the sweetest smile " I love this entrance" Weng Xing said nodding to the satisfactory results created by Mu Song, everyone's eyes widened, jaws dropped beholding an unusual beauty in front of them but one person wasn't moved.
" What a good notice board heh" The crow clapped gleefully while mocking Mu Song " did he really clap with those wing?" xhan whispered to his master who nodded " hmph! what a crying crow!" Mu Song exclaimed clapping his hands to mock the bird, both of them totally forgot that everyone was watching them . The crow had had enough already from this crow and wanted to badly beat the hell out of him, so he slowly formed into an astounding young man on black garments with a mild black power around him, he was so elegant and had a little resemblance of Weng Xing and his beauty could make any man drool. He had two Daggers stuck behind his waist belt and wore a red hair band just like Weng Xing and Xhan " is this really the crow of exodus?" everyone exclaimed seeing the beauty who waved weakly at the king before falling flat on the floor again, his long Black hair covered half of his face making him so sexy and charming " Didn't know crows could be this pretty" Mu Song said crossing his arms.
" Lock those creatures up" Lord Zao ordered his patience running out, how dare these unworthy creatures use his hall as a playground? " wait" Weng Xing shouted but noone paid attention to him. He watched Mu Song struggle as the Excellency's guards pinned him down and handcuffing his arms with chains " Those chains has a bounding spell" Weng cried unto Xhou who merely nodded " But...." his words were stopped Midway by Lord Zao " Lock them up too for bringing unworthy creatures here and ignoring the golden ceremony" he ordered pointing at the three of them who flinched " This is quite unfair" Weng shouted as he was been dragged out but noone dared touch Xhou as he was been escorted out of the hall.... attributes of being a prince! " Arrogant fool" Xhan inwardly cursed as they were dragged out like servants.

The cell produced an eerie feeling and silence gripping an overwhelmed fear into the hearts of the inmates , this cell described was found in cave of life where offenders were kept and punished according to the law . The last it was in use should be hundred years ago ever since a new platform has been put to frame on punishing offenders, did I just say hundred Years ago? it was sixteen years ago when little Weng was locked up there for few minutes before little Xhou had rescued him "I can't feel my legs, it's numb" a voice from inside the cell echoed taking us to the view " I just feel like poking those darn eyes of yours" Another voice chipped in sounding like he was frustrated and tired of the former " cry if you like... crying crow" the former said with a high pitched voice which echoed spreading like wildfire and not quenching anytime soon and of course startling both of them.
This cave was indeed something else as per described " My voice still echoes, what manner of punishment is this?" Mu Song whispered in fear as he stared at the dark " Eh? crying crow I don't know your name" he said trying to change the atmosphere " Zhou" he replied meekly like an obedient sheep, why was he a villian? Mu Song thought as his eyes peered at the beauty leaning his head against the wall. There was a hint of goodness in him as he could merely tell, he heaved a sigh also leaning against the wall...humans are stupid and brainless to cage him king of cats. He stared at the darkness swallowing them before averting his gaze at the beauty in front of him and a surge of pity swept him, this crow must be passing through alot in sharata since he could easily give up without struggles and letting himself be captured. His eyes lingered on the sleeping beauty and it took him to those years he was a kitten " a thousand year might not be that boring" he finally mumbled before falling asleep
