Chapter 5 - different path 2

As I am walking to class, a thought goes through my mind: which classes do I need to take to become a king? Economy is one of them, maybe literature? Or maths? I'll ask my teacher or someone.

I find myself in math class looking through the window; I already learned this; I should be able to not study till 9th grade.

"Boy! Why aren't you paying attention in my class?" The math teacher, a small old woman, exclaimed

"Ohh, sorry, Mrs., I just thought this was an easy lesson." I say looking as respectful as I can.

"If it's such an easy lesson, then it isn't a problem to test you on it."

"Well, if you really want to test me, then you can."

The teacher grabs a piece of paper from the drawer and hands it to me.

"Write the following questions: 4x9, 5x5, 2x7, 9x6. If you get them right, you get a ten."

These are all easy; they are 1st grade questions, so it's normal I can do these.

"36, 25, 14, 54."

"What?" My teacher said while looking at me.

"Did you already learn multiplication?"

"Yes mrs. I had some books at home, so I learned multiplication at 5." 

"Oh, well, at least pay attention to the class while I am teaching."

"Understood mrs."

The teacher goes back to teaching, and I try to pay some attention to her this time.

 

Gabriel's pov:

Where are they? Did I lose them?

"Ugh," "you can't hide from me!"

"All of you can come out without me killing you, or I could catch you and then kill you; you decide."

And nothing; it looks like they die.

"Bleachtaire!" I yell as my vision turns gray and every source of heat turns a bright red.

"Gotcha"

At this moment, I knew all of them shit their pants; I could sense their temperature rise.

I run back in the dark to be able to hide. I sneak up behind some of them hiding.

"Did he fake it?"

"Yeah, I think we are good now." 

All of them let out a sigh.

"Where did he go?" I say from behind them.

"Maybe he went back to the city; we should hide here for an hour to make sure." The guy who said that didn't pay atention and so he didn't look at me.

"Yo wait, who asked that?" The third guy hiding with them said.

"Snap," the first guy's neck is broken with his bones sticking out.

The second guy turns around and tries to kick me, but I catch his leg and twist it off.

"Ahhhrgh"

"Go away, you demon!!" He cries while grasping what is left of his leg.

"Look, everyone comes with me, and I won't hurt you anymore, but if they don't, I'll kill everyone of them."

As soon as I say that, all of them come out of hiding and get on their knees.

"Bandage your friend up."

One of them rips their shirt and ties it around his leg and makes a turniquet with a stick they found.

"Let's go; I'll carry your friend." 

We start marching to the city with them in front. We reach the city and head to the knight headquarters.

"I got them!"

"Hmm, one of them is missing; why is that?"

"I needed someone to be an example."

"Sigh," "at least you didn't kill all of them; what is with that guy's leg, though?"

"He attacked me." 

"Good enough."

"Is the pay as we talked?"

"Yes, 20 gold coins and one guy of your choice."

"Good"

 

Raymonds pov:

I finally got out of school; I'll just have to walk Mr. Goodman's daughter (Rose) back home.

"So how did you get so strong?"

"I ain't that strong, though; those guys were weak. But if you're asking how I am so strong for my age, then the answer is that I trained with my dad since I was 6."

"Ohhhh, you want to become a knight?"

"Nope, that's boring; I want to be the best; I will be the king." I say as I reach to the sky while looking up at the moon.

"Really? Well, I think it makes sense; everyone wants to be a king."

We continue talking as we go to Rose's house, but out of nowhere some big guys come out of an alley.

"Look what we got here, are those diogenes' academy uniforms?"

"It sure looks like that, Wolfgang."

There are five guys; I should be able to get rid of about three of them if they all have abilities; if they are normal, I should beat them.

But Rose is here; I should make a fuss big enough for her to be able to run.

"When I go behind the guy in front of us, run." I whisper to Rose while looking in front of us.

"What? You got something to say? You gonna fight us, big boy?"

"ENGINE!" I yell as I instantly appear behind Wolfgang and dig my arm in his back.

"What the-" I pull out his L3 vertebra.

He falls down paralyzed. Rose starts running right back where we came from.

"It looks like this kid has an ability—a rare one at that—and he will be sold for a lot of money. Get him!" The guy Wolfgang talked to yells.

They all come dashing at me. I jump and use one of their heads as a jumping goat and kick on in the face with both my legs.

"Power up!"

Ohh no. One guy grabs my leg and swings me into a wall.

"Gah," I spit out blood and look down to see who is doing that to me. I see an ugly guy with an adolf-type mustache. I twist around fast enough to twist his joints in his hand and be able to get out of his grasp.

"How did he beat you? He's only a kid." The biggest guy left yelled at the others.

"Die!" I yell as I tackle him through a wall entering a bar; everyone gets up and starts running out of the bar.

"You little shit!" The big guy says as he throws me off him.

"You ruined our plan! We have to run."

"Yeah, run you little bi-," I get dizzy and black out.

Rose's pov:

I have to go to the knight headquarters; it's close enough, so maybe I'll get there in time. Those guys looked pretty strong; I hope he is ok.

Finally, "HELP! My friend got attacked by some weird  guys." I yell in the entrance.

All people come at the entrance; there I see Raymond's dad.

"Rose! What happend? Who got attacked?" Gabriel asked me.

"It was Raymond! Some guys came out of an alley; I think they wanted to kidnap us. Raymond fought some of them and told me to run here."

"RAYMOND!"

"Yes, I am sorry that I ran away."

"Where did that happen?"

Before I can answer, someone enters the room and says, "Some kid got kidnapped at the bar on 28th Street!"

"Where you there?!"

"Yes"

He instantly started running towards 28th Street; it was like he disappeared from sight; I couldn't even see him leave; if it wasn't for the sound of the door closing, I wouldn't know where he went.

Raymond's pov:

Where am I? Did I die again?

Some lights blind me out of nowhere.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Here we have a slave that is worth more than a werewolf; this boy here has the "engine" ability and is able to use it at around 10 years old."

What! Am I sold as a slave? No! It is all repeating over again!

"The bidding starts at 200 gold coins! Do we have any bidders?"

I see about 50 people raise their hands; the bid got over 1000 gold.

Am I really going to be sold? If I could still use my ability, I would kill everyone in this room.

There I see a beautiful woman raise her hand as she yells, "5000!"

"We got 5000 from Ms. . Debbie."

"6000," a man from the back yells

"10.000," the same woman yells

What the hell! You can easily live for a month for 10 gold coins; a house is about 200!

"Sold to Ms. . Debbie!"

No! No! No!

I get drugged by some weak-looking guy beside me and black out again.

Gabriel's pov:

"How did those guys look like?" I ask the bartender.

"They had some cloaks on that had a red moon on them! That's all I know."

Red moon? No! Not them.

"Thank you for the information." I tell the bartender and leave 5 gold on the table.

I will kill each and every one of them this time; I shall not give them mercy.

I arrive at the Sangis Lunae slave house.

I barge through the front door and see everyone bidding; I instantly dash at the stage.

A random guard tried to stop me, but I ran through him, leaving nothing but his feet there.

"Where the hell is my son?"

The man that was representing the slaves looks at me shocked, as how did I go right through a man? "Talk!" I yell loud enough to shake the room.

"Guards!" The slim man yells

All guards start running towards me, but before any of them can take a step, one of them got their heads cut clean off. 

"Come to me and you will die!"

All the guards go back to their positions.

"The knight order is coming! All of you are going to prison. There is no escape; sit down and you will only be arrested; try running and you will be killed."

I take the slave presentator to a room in the back and start questioning him.

"Who bought my son!"

"I can't tell you; if I do, I will be dead before sunrise." 

"You would be way better off dead than paralyzed."

"You won't paralyze me! You are a knight! Some run of the mi-" the man can't end his sentence before I break his pinky.

"Talk!

"No!"

"Sigh"

"Gave up already?"

"Spear of heaven" i say as a white spear with gold incriptions appears in hands.

"Wait! What are you gonna do with that!"

I throw him on his back and get ready to strike him in the back. 

"I'll talk!"

"Good"

"Ms. debbie from star of death bought him!"

"Star of death!"

Not them again, i'll have to fight that guy again.
