Argh!Aren felt a sharp pain as she realised that she was in a hospital.The last thing she knew was the accident and that guy."Where is he!""Aren, please calm down", Zene tried to console her."That bastard! He killed them! He killed both of them!", Aren started yelling as she began to grab the attention of the medical staff and patients around her."What is this?", Aren looked at the butterfly IV cannula attached to her and pulled it out forcefully before dashing her way out of the ward."Leave her to me I will take care of her", he said before running behind her."Aren listen to me, god damn it!", Zene went behind her as she tried to run away from the hospital."Fuck off!", Aren threw the guards away that tried to stop her as she went onto the highway in front of her.Beep* Beep* Beep*"It's so noisy in here", she said before running her way onto the streets."I must find that man!""I will kill him, I will fucking kill him!"Zene pulled her towards a side of a street as she halt

The flight takes off*"How long are you going to stay like that?", Zene inquired while he sat beside Aren who was looking at the wings of the aeroplane from the the window seat."You wouldn't get how I feel anyway, Zene""The pain of losing someone precious-", Aren stopped her words after she stared at Zene and realised after looking at his eyes."I don't get you at all, Zene""Why do you say so""How can be so calm when you lost my father and mother?""You had to kill my father, was that also for my sake?"Aren looked at him who was deliberately avoiding eye contact with her."You wouldn't answer but I know why you did it""Aren, can we not speak about this for a moment""..."She looked at him before the air hostess came in between and inquired them if they would like to have a drink or anything to eat."No I am not in the mood to eat but thanks anyway, ", she said.The atmosphere had turned bitter ever since Aren woke up.She would burst into anger at the slightest inconvenience as
"Let's catch that bastard and burn him in a bonfire", she stated."First up we need to track that man down", Zene replied."How are we gonna do that?"Beep* Beep* Beep*The traffic distracted the both of them while they were having a conversation. "I know a guy that can help us with it, he is called the artist""But first let's get back to our hotel since the noise is distracting me", he added.Sigh*"So, what do we do after we meet up with this guy called Artist?""Don't worry, he is almost here""He should be coming to our doorstep anytime soon"Knock* knock*"Speak of the devil", he added.Door creaks*"I never thought you would ask me for help after I left Korea but it seems the time has come now, Zene", said the guy whom Zene claimed to be the artist."It seems you have grown to become taller than me in those three years", the artist chuckled."Let's leave the introductions because we are currently in a hurry", Zene stated."So, now it is up to you Aren tell us, what does this m
It was a sunny day and both the youngsters were going uphill via a bullock cart."Aren let me tell you a story""It is about a man and a young boy""The boy was named Zene Lach and the man was called Tai Jin""They both knew at first glance that they were meant to go on a journey together""The boy knew that the man was his master and the man knew this boy was his sole disciple""The men from different eras perhaps that's was how it felt but one thing was common in between the two men""It was the fiery eyes that wished to bring down the world to their feet""Are you talking about your past life, Zene?""Yes, My past life is what it is", he said while staring at the muddy road up ahead."When did this event take place, Zene?""It was during the Gulf War""Back in the 1990s, I was a ten-year-old kid who was being raised as a weapon to be used against the Americans""I was in the Charlie unit back then""I remember having a sister", he said while looking at the muddy road."The commander
The harsh sun and the desert were truly a challenge for survival yet there existed a small village in this desert made out of mud and sand.The broken houses in which villagers resided indicated an active war or an infuriated lord smashing through the houses for his pleasure.It truly was pitiful to look at the malnourished children and old men who looked like living skeletons.Tai Jin looked around and found Zene not near him.He went into the village and found Zene choking a rattle sank while it tried to bite him.Tai Jin slit the snake's head clean and checked if Zene had any bite marks."Oh no, you have been bitten Zene""How long ago were you bitten?""...", Zene looked at Tai Jin."5mins?"Zene denied it by shaking his head."10 mins?"Nod."How are you not foaming from your mouth yet?""...""Can you jump?"Zene leapt into the air as he flung himself 6ft above the ground."What in the world are you?", Tai Jin examined Zene after he saw the vitality of this young boy."You seem
(Everyone come out of your houses, now!)(If you don't come out we will burn your houses and women in fire)"It's them!", she said. "Fear not young lady", Tai Jin stated as he opened the front door and went outside to meet those armed men."Zene come here!", he yelled out loud.The men came on a military jeep without a roof.The men were heavily armed with assault rifles that were of military grade in those days."Who are you?", inquired the armed men wearing masks on."Just a traveller who stumbled across the village in search of shelter", Tai Jin stated."Then go and find your shelter, why are you interfering in our matters", the masked man with a skinny physique yelled."I thought you were in search of a man, so I wanted to see how much of a man you guys were""This little", the skinny guy got out of the jeep and pointed his rifle at Tai Jin's head.In an instant the skinny guy fell to the ground nobody saw what it was but a swift blow to his neck and he was knocked down by Tai Ji
"Shall we go then?", Tai Jin inquired."...", Zene nodded.The camel was a useful mode of transport for both of them.The bags were tied to the jump of the camel and they refused their pouches with water."Young boy, is there anything you wish to ask of me?""...""You didn't utter a single word since we left off on our journey and now I sense that gaze from you""..."The boy looked at the man's back as he thought about it for a while."Can you teach me?", Zene inquired."Hmm?""Can you teach me how to control this thing within my body?""So, you want me to teach you how to control the fragment within you""Fragment", Zene tried to utter the word back to Tai Jin."It is going to be a tough thing to master will you still do it?", Tai Jin inquired."...", the boy nodded."I want a verbal confirmation""Yes""Good, I think we are near to an abandoned mining field according to the village chief it should be around here somewhere"Thud*Tap* Tap*Zene and Tai Jin arrived at the mining fie
