Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 27: FAMILIAR FACE
"You can't seriously still be mad at me!" Rashen said."I'm not mad Rashikins, I'm irritated,I feel molested and abused." Said Gayle."Gayle you'll be fine." "Fine? Rashikins hospitals are hubs for diseases,who knows what sort of germs have penetrated our bodies." Said Gayle grumpily.It was today that Rashen found out that Gayle did not particularly like hospitals. Time flew by so fast while talking to Raspin and Ngoko that he didn't notice that an hour had gone by and by the time he left the room to find Gayle he saw him sleeping on the stairs. With the way Gayle felt about germs and hospitals Rashen didn't have the heart to tell him that his mouth was open."Well maybe a little shopping will brighten your mood because we're here." Rashen said to Gayle as the approached the local market close to Pigling Avenue. It was still as crowded and as busy as always. "Pfft! You call this a market? Compared to the average ones over at Hangeritch this is nothing." "Yeah whatever." Rashen sai
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 28: THE HEARING
It was a particularly cold morning. Rashen sat on a park bench,his mind racing. It was just about six o'clock in the morning,a few hours before the hearing would actually begin but Rashen was far too nervous to stay at the lodge and decided to leave early. It had been a pretty quiet couple of days leading to the hearing for Rashen. Ever since the incident at the local market Rashen decided to stay at the lodge and because of this, Gayle had to go get the suits (a task he wasn't to pleased with doing).Unlike Rashen, Gayle had no issues exploring Nottenam looking for inspiration, inspiration he would never find because he thought that Nottenam was a particularly boring place. He ultimately decided to stay at the lodge too. He spent most of his time with Macy(who was still not in speaking terms with Rashen) in her room just opposite theirs. Before leaving,he left a note for Gayle telling him where he would be and the time he would be heading over to the court house. He was never really
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 29: THE FINAL JUDGEMENT
In the court room where Rashen's hearing was taking place everyone's attention was solely on the Marshall. He took out the case files that had been presented to him,"I am going to ask you a series of questions that you can either answer with a 'Yes' or a 'No' unless you are asked to explain further, understood?""Yes." The Marshall began,"The accused was reported to have attended an unofficial get together for the graduating cadets that took place after the graduation ceremony,do you deny this?" The Marshall asked,"No." Replied Rashen,"The accused was reported to have left the get together with the victims before the alloted time,do you deny this?" "No." "The reason for this is because of an altercation between the accused and another cadet,do you deny this?""Yes." Rashen said much to the slight unease of those seated, especially Squad Commander Malloy. The Marshall's face creased as he went through the file again,"You deny that you had an altercation with one Imperial Cadet B
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 30: RASHEN'S VICTORY
"Ow!!!" Cried Rashen as Gayle slapped him across the face."Oh good! You're finally awake." Said Ngoko.Rashen noticed he was on the floor,he took a look around as me rubbed his cheek. He was still in the courtroom and right now he was surrounded by Gayle, Raspin,Ngoko and Head Academic Officer Remry Gillurt."What the hell happened?" He asked as Gayle helped him back up his feet."You fainted." Replied Raspin instantly,"I fainted?" "Yes you did." Said Raspin,"And just before the Marshall gave his verdict too." "Must've been the stress." Added Ngoko.It all came back to Rashen,"That's right,my verdict." He said in a panicky tone as he turned to face the Marshall."Relax cadet, you've been declared innocent." Said Officer Gillurt with a bright smile reminiscent of Head Watcher Garle."It is as the Head Academic Officer says," said the Marshall, "You've been proven innocent of all charges against you. You are hereby off your probation and all the privileges you earned for graduating
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 31: THE GOLDENFIRE BANQUET
"Are you ready yet?" Rashen asked Gayle for the fourth time that that hour."Patience Rashikins." Gayle replied.Rashen, after being coerced by Officer Gillurt, would be attending the Goldenfire Banquet that evening. After returning home they decided to at least freshen up before since they had the time. Rashen took a bath and wore the suit he wore for his hearing after airing it out.Gayle on the other hand decided to wash his suit again. He left it out to dry while he took a long bath. Unfortunately for him they only had about an hour left before the banquet starts and the suit was still damp. Rashen offered to use his fire to completely dry it up for him but he refused and called him 'uncultured'. He instead borrowed a hot press from another soldier in the lodge. "You know," Rashen started, "Seeing as you were the most excited about attending the banquet I assumed you'd want to leave early." "Relax Rashikins, I'll be done in another thirty minutes." "Thirty minutes!!?" "Give or
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 32: PROVOCATION
Rashen didn't feel too good about his encounter with the chief maid. She was the woman after all,who when no one else would,took Rashen in when he was still just a baby and raised him till he was four years old before leaving him in his shack. Rashen knew that by all accounts he should be grateful to her, and genuinely was but he also believed she was part of what seemed to be a recurring issue in his life,where people would come in but before he can make a genuine connection with them,they leave for some reason or the other.It happened with the chief maid,it happened with Argins,it happened with Mr and Mrs Cobbs and right now it was happening with Macy. It was frustrating because he should be the happiest he's ever been,he was cleared in the hearing, acknowledged by Ngoko and Raspin as a rival,he had Gayle and he had Grittshore,a place he could call home,but it's not enough, without Macy it just wasn't enough. Rashen didn't feel like he'd be doing himself any good by trying to get fr
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 33: POINT OF NO RETURN
There Rashen stood, his clothes charred,his face red and his hair smoking. He stood barefoot against Lumins who was fuming. They stared into each other's eyes and right then and there they knew there were no words that needed to be said. Lumins created a fire ball and Rashen's blood red flames burst out from his back. They charged towards each other but before any contact, seemingly out of nowhere Ngoko appeared before them and sent both of them flying back with a powerful wind blast. "That's enough!" He said firmly. A crowd gathered up and leading them was Basterious and LiLyna. She ran towards Lumins teary eyed, "Oh Lumins,are you alright? Are you hurt?" She asked in urgency. "Put those dirty flames away!" Ordered Basterious furiously. Rashen's flames was still burning out of his back but he hadn't noticed nor did he pay Basterious any attention. All his attention was still focused on Lumins. "How dare you attempt to attack my son in his own home?" Basterious asked but Rashen st
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 34: LILYNA'S WOES
"Rashikins...what exactly is it you're doing again?" Gayle asked. Rashen, sweating and breathing heavily, responded,"Huff... training...huff." Rashen balanced himself on one arm,his other arm stretched out trying to grab onto another beam. The contraption Rashen was currently on, the Borhmmer's Stand was the one of the most physically challenging equipments at the training center. It was a series of intricately designed beams of varying sizes arranged as one huge stand. The aim was to get to the very top of the stand,one slip up and Rashen could seriously injure himself."Training eh? And how'd you think this'll help beat that Lulu guy?" Gayle asked as he watched Rashen attempt to make his way to the top of the stand."You can't -huff- be serious!" Said Rashen as he finally sat at the top of the stand. "As serious as a fractured spine Rashikins." Said Gayle. He threw up a face towel for Rashen to wipe his sweat."You know my fire is weak yeah?" "Everyone knows your fire is weak sh
