Chapter 6
Waterfall's Keeper
Among the eucalyptus trees and oak trees lined up, the waterfall was so clear, sliding, as if it was devoted directly from the sky. Water flowed from the middle of the rock. The high cliffs of water where they come from, as if touching the boundary of the blue sky.
"Waaa!"
Not Satisfied by, when Kiera enjoyed the scene in front of her, she was shocked by the appearance of the face with a widened eye, looked at it with a position upside down between the lush the oak tree that stem sluted on the surface of the water. Kiera screamed as hard as possible.
"Waaa!"
"Waaa!"
There was a screaming back of shouts in. Either the shout of who is more loud. Kiera didn't have time to think about it. Because, before Kiera recovered from her shock, the face disappeared from the presence of Kiera, accompanied by the sound of something falling into the water.
Without thinking twice, Kiera jumped to rocks on the edge of the river. However, Kiera did not find anyone. The girl's eyes went back and forth down downstream and returned to the waterfall. Only the silence she found.
For a moment, Kiera stood waiting on the river lip. 'Do I just fantasize?' Inner Kiera asked doubtfully. While grabbing the head, Kiera looked at the rocks along the river bank, slippery mossy, but there was no new foothold.
'Well, maybe just my shadow only.' Again, Kiera spoke to her own heart. She went to pass.
"Waaa!" Kiera just half turned around. When, from inside the river an arms stretched up her ankle, it felt cold. Spontaneously, Kiera grabbed her feet as hard as she could.
Again, there is a heavy thing sounds falling into the water flow. Kiera was dumbfounded, her heart beat felt like she was about to jump from her chest.
Back, Kiera looked at the river with curiosity. Again it's not seen anyone there. However, this time Kiera was sure, earlier there was someone or something that hung with an upside face, on an oak tree, before disappearing into the water. What are the creatures of the waterfall? Kiera can only expand it in her heart.
"Who are you!?"
The question that Kiera just said in her heart, suddenly sounds out to her ear. The voice was spoken in an angry tone, came from the back of the girl and managed to surprise her again.
That day, Kiera's heart was truly forced to work hard because she got a surprise many times. Kiera hadn't even had time to answer when a cold hand gripped the back neck strongly.
"Remove it!" Angry, Kiera tried to look back. However, the girl can't move further. She was gripped so strongly like a cat. Angry, Kiera's kick to her back carelessly.
Blugh!
The next second, the girl's ass landed smoothly on the grass. The pain is not much, but Kiera doesn't get treated as a kitten. The girl glared and prepared to attack the defender with a scolding.
However, the lips of Kiera who were ready to issue curses, returned to close perfectly. For a moment, Kiera felt very annoyed because she was treated like a stray kitten.
However, what she saw in front of her now, made the annoyance Kiera's feeling evaporated immediately. A young man who now stands in front of Kiera, truly represents the parable 'like a new cat plunged into the water'. With hair along the shoulder, unfaulty, and cover half of his face, with wet clothes that dripped around the water where he stood, the young man looked so pathetic.
"Hahaha!" Kiera could no longer stem the laughter that was released from her lips. The girl's body was shaken because she tried hard to stop laughter when her eyes knew with a angry gaze belonging to the young man in front of her.
"Who are you!" Back, the young man hissed with lips creased due hold cold.
With difficulty, the young man tried to maintain an angry expression from his face. For a moment, when his hand touched the girl in front of him, suddenly there was a flow of electricity stinging the skin. Luckily his body was well trained as a controller. But, the girl's laughter was rolling like a bell sound, it felt more surprising him. He felt enchanted.
"I'm Kiera, sorry, accidentally made you shocked. I was also surprised," Kiera said carefully, a little defending herself.
Seeing the situation at that time, Kiera was afraid the young man would get angry more. "Who are you? I don't know that here people get used to the upside down on the river," Kiera said continuing her words while asking, she tried to joke.
"Huhh! I'm Adam! And here people are free to do anything. Usually this area is free of illegal intruders. Now say! What you are doing in this place!"
Back, the young man who called himself Adam was asking towards Kiera. However, this time the lightning of anger had disappeared from his eyes.
"I'm looking around, when I heard the sound of a waterfall. So, I decided to look for the source of the sound, and ... Next you already know." At the time, Kiera answered more courageously.
"Are you a resident around here?" Kiera continued the question while staring at Adam. The tall young man who had eyes and thick black hair was staring at the girl in front of him with a view of probing. He thought of something. There is a strange girl who has a voice like the music.
"Hmmm."
Instead of answering, Adam only snorted shortly. Then he turned around, shot away without saying anything. In an instant, the shadow of the young man's body disappeared from the presence of Kiera.
While feel irritably, Kiera turned around, and stepped back towards her was coming. The excitement found the beautiful place faded a little by the strangers named Adam earlier.
Even though if want to be honest, Kiera can understand why the young man was not friendly. She had made Adam shocked and fell into the river. Unconsciously, the smile of Kiera returned when she remembered when the young man who had a copper skin was plunged into the river twice because she was. pathetic strange young man.
Shortly thereafter, Kiera arrived at Aaegon's house. Before joining Aaegon and Bianca, Kiera decided to see the hut she would occupy.
"Grandpa said, behind the main house. Means this." The girl talked to herself while standing in front of a small hut located not far from the Aaegon's cottage.
She was satisfied with what she saw. A tiny wooden cottage, roofed by dry grass, looks clean and well maintained. Medicinal plants flourish occupy the patch of narrow land under the window.
The place looks comfortable. Enthusiastically, Kiera pushed the door open. She wanted to immediately see the room in the hut.
"Aaggh!"
Problem! There was a sound of shouts together with the sound of a broken object that fell hit the floor. Kiera jumped back in shocked. The girl glared in disbelief.
Behind the open door, Adam stood up with a wet shirt on the chest. Sharps of jugs and water spills scattered around his legs.
"You!"
"You!"
Kiera looked down, at other times maybe she could see the funny side of the incidentally incident happened to her and Adam. However, at this time Kiera could only surrender under Adam's fiery gaze. Adam's eyes flared up as wanting to burn her alive.
