Chapter 7 - Chapter 7

The duo stared at each other in the eye,each with their own thought. They were lost in each other's eyes while in their own worlds. They said nothing as they felt that any more words might ruin such a moment so they just settled for staring at each other. To Patrick,in his world, there was only Kerrynè and nothing else and he felt his heart racing especially when he saw the beautiful smile on her face. The same was for Kerryne apart from a small conflict of emotions in her world. On one side there was a blue eyes,white haired youth who was staring at her emotionally making her heart to churn and feel warom and like a magnet she was attracted by his cold yet warm smile and she subconsciously closed the distance between them. Their heads,unknowingly means a strange but familiar feeling sprouted in their hearts.

Just as their lips were about to meet,they were jolted awake from their own thoughts. The situation became slightly awkward as they stared at each other with Kerryne trying her best not to maintain eye contact with Patrick." Sorry, I don't k ow what came over me," Patrick apologised." You don't have to apologise or explain. It was not your fault," Kerryne hurriedly explained as if not willing to allow Patrick to blame himself. Patrick only nodded at this." It is time to leave so let us go. Let me buy you something before we go shopping for some clothes after all I guess I am not the only one that's hungry here," Patrick said and did not give at chance for her to refuse. They both slighted from the plane.

Meanwhile....

In a place far away in the middle of a certain island,a middle aged man is seated on a throne made purely of bones. The middle aged man has fiery red eyes and black hair and he had a crown adorned on his head." Your majesty,we have finally managed to lock onto the location of the third prince of the Wolf empire and our nen are on standby. We are awaiting your offers," a bald man in red robes said with a smile. The bald man had very high standings in the empire as he was the right hand man of the emperor of the bone kingdom.

"Act when you are sure of capturing him. If you cannot capture him then finish him off as soon as possible and remember to make it clean. Leave behind no trails. One last thing, only dead man tell no tales so only they keep secrets, understand? " the emperor asked in a cold tone." I will attend to it immediately ,your majesty. Not a word will leak out," the bald man said. A few hours just after the bald man left, the emperor turned to stare at the red sky and a cold glint flashed across his eyes." Alexander,do you think this is your wolf kingdom where you can come and go as you wish? What do you take my empire for and where do you think I will put my face if I allow you to dò This?" The emperor asked as he took a step forward and a staircase appeared leading to the sky. In te sky Alexander was waiting calmly for the emperor with a lazy expression on his face.

"Sander,so many yearshave passed yet you are still clinging on to the past. Stop being so grumpy. We àre now old and I am afraid our old bones can no longer withstand all this hectic fights. Let the younger generation knock heads on their own and stop interfering or else I might be forced to see how strong your defences are," Alexander said in a carefree tone but the threat hidden in his voice was evident. Sander only scoffed at this as he stared fiercely at Alexander." Sander better keep your boys in check so that you dont blame me later for ignoring our past relations," Alexander said with a smile." Alex, do you think I fear You? I have already given you face by allowing you to speak to me in such a way in my empire yet you think that I fear you all of a sudden. I don't mind you keeping me company for a bit longer in this place," Sander said as he snapped fiercely at Alexander who did not even place him in his eyes.

"With just you? I am now curious to see how you dare to keep me in this place. If not for those old foggies I wouldn't even grace your lowly kingdom with my holy presence because you are not worthy," Alexander said." Since you are so confident I now want to see just how you make it out of this place, " Sander said with a devilish grin on his face as he the out three drones ." So this is how you plan on keeping me in this place. Using your pathetic drones to lock space forming a three net fornation to prevent my teleportation. You have even managed to slow down time in this enclosed place so my reaction speed is pretty much delayed. What a nice invention. Unluckily I don't have the time to entertain or else I would have watched for long enough. I'll be off now," Alexander said as he used force to blast open the enclosed space.

"Sander, I am indeed a bit surprised that you managed to think of such a nice invention but it is still weak. It can easily be blasted through if I use force so make sure to improve if you want to trap me here. See you soon,"Alexander's voice appeared before Sander before a drone exploded before him. Luckily, Sanded knew Alexander well and was prepared for his tricks. Alexander was never someone to suffer a loss so Sanded knew he had to take a small revenge. Sanded stared for a long time at the direction which Alexander had left with reluctance but he chose to swallow the humiliation and want back to his palace with a belly full of rage. At the same time with this he realised that he had still ended up underestimating the technological level of Wolf empire. It made him realise how deep their inheritance ran.
