2 months passed by...
For the 2 past months Ricardo taught them self defense, not only that but also combat techniques.
Every single day when Bats trained, there was also this cunning woman annoying him.
Every night she went to his door knocking and knocking and knocking....
Gwen became irritated because of the past 2 months not giving a damn about her.
Gwen came back to her room with an angry and irritated face.
"That disposable spare tire dare not to talk to me!"
Gwen angrily muttered as she sat on the sofa clenching her fist.
November 01, 2024
Kaycee who was bored in her rental house decided to visit both her brothers. As she was in the door, Arthur holding a grocery who was about to go back to their room noticed her. When Kaycee entered, Arthur immediately followed her. Arthur silently put his ear close to the door and heard them talking...
A few minutes passed by, Arthur went back to their hotel. When he opened the door, a loud voice came by then followed by a flying pillow on his head.
"What took you so long! I was hungry waiting for you!"
An angry voice shouting at Arthur.
Good thing the rooms were soundproof or else the adjacent room will hear it.
"Sorry babe, I got something interesting on the way that's why."
Arthur replied then hugged and kissed her.
"What something interesting than me? Huh?"
Gwen said with her furrowed brows.
Arthur slowly told her about what he saw. Gwen was surprised.
"Hmm, so he had a sister? He never told me on that before. Huh!"
On the other hand,
"Sister, here's some water. You look tired. Why didn't you told us earlier that you would be coming here? I would have prepared for dinner."
Christian asked.
"Thank you. The elevator was taking so long so I decided walking through the stairs. I was bored in my rentalhouse that's why."
Kaycee replied while panting and then added,
"Big Brother, uhm."
"Yes?" Bats replied while sitting and looking at his laptop.
"My birthday is coming near. Don't you have something for me in advance??? Hehe."
Kaycee asked.
Christian stood up, then went to get the 25kg sack of rice at the corner. Kaycee was curious when he was coming closer to her carrying the sack of rice.
"Here sister, Happy Birthday! My gift in advance."
Christian jokingly said and laughed.
Kaycee suddenly took the pillow on the sofa then throwed it to Christian.
"You b*stard little brother!"
"Do you know how to drive?" Bats asked while concentrating on his laptop.
"Of course, my friends taught me!"
Kaycee replied with full confidence.
"Ok, I'll get you a skateboard tomorrow."
Bats replied hiding his laughter.
"You both are so mean!" Kaycee replied with her furrowed brows.
"Just kidding, tomorrow let's go buy you something.I'll finish something first then let's go outside for a dinner. I'll also introduce you to someone. He will be a part of our family."
Bats replied while hiding his smile.
After confirming things on his laptop, they went outside for dinner. Bats introduced Ricardo to his sister. With Kaycee's social skills, she and Ricardo talked for a while. It's as if they were daughter and father in their past life.
Meanwhile, in a far far isolated island.
"Hey you! Careful on that box or else you'll go boom! You understand?"
An armed man said with his Ak47 hanging on his chest.
"You f*cker! I told you not to call me when there's no good news!"
A man with a full beard said talking over to a radio angrily then hangs up and turns around to one of his men.
"So how's the exploration?"
"We found the entrance to the cave Sir. The explorers and archaeologists will be dispatch once the prepation is finished."
An armed man with a patch on his left eye and with his full gear standing with his arms behind his back replied.
"So it's indeed true. The Lost Treasure will be ours!"
The beard man named, Roger smiled sinisterly as he muttered to himself.
"As for the tribesmen left, what should we do about them Sir?"
The eye patched soldier named, Cyclops asked.
"Let's go visit them."
Roger replied.
Later on, they got on the tribesmen's home. There were many armed men sorrounding the perimeter, they started burning houses of the uncivilized tribesmen. Many dark skinned tribesmen were lying on the ground with blood all over.
*(Made up language)*
"Ake retu hute poru huep akta ropu gookpru intu tolresh umpat orde"
A dark skinned old tribesman with a markings from all over his body, with a necklace bone around his neck while hugging his dead son on the ground said.
"Hey, translator! What did he just said?"
Roger asked curiously while taking a cigarette on his mouth.
"He said, "Our ancestors became the Protectors of this World for generations. They sacrified by isolating themselves. And yet, you stepped on our land creating chaos and wreaking havoc.""
The translator named Nathan replied.
"What do you mean Protectors of this World? Ask him Nathan."
Roger asked curiously as he blow a smoke from the cigarette.
"Tuke peru tokpe huek porte orde?"
Nathan looked at the tribesman and asked.
"Bonte geto orde patok buut monshi topa ugtus orde islo geto holop order fokba muos kuot. "
The old tribesman said and laughed maniacally.
"He's laughing? Is he crazy? Now what translator?"
Roger asked like he wanted an answer immediately.
Nathan gulped and felt a shiver to his spines,
"He said, " You may find the treasures you seek on our land but on the day the red sky appears under the full moon, you will regret coming here. As it will be the day you will spread horrors across your lands as the venom spreads through your veins. You will observe the bodies of the dead as they rise from the ground. You will ruin this world! May you survive like those who will receive Gifts as the hidden history repeats itself. Consider this warning a mercy to you all. May my Gift be passed to someone worthy.""
Roger and the others frozed for a second as they suddenly felt ominous air from their sorroundings when they heard Nathan translated what the old tribesman told.
After a few seconds, an armed man took initiative on firing the old tribesman.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The armed man who took the shot was trembling after he made the scene as he fall down on the ground sitting.
"Who took the shot?! You damned asshole! I didn't gave you the order to fire! You f*cking p*ece of sh*t!"
Roger rushedly grabbed the armed man's collar as he shouted angrily while his saliva sprayed to the armed man's face.
"F*CK! You'll burn these bodies as your punishment!" as Roger added and pointed the dead body.
