The forest is burning again like before like it was on that day
I stood up seeing straight into his eyes.
he was fearsome big i was terrified there was no denying that but beyond that fear, there was only one thing left inside me.
Revenge.
The revenge i dedicated my whole life to.
"I am not done yet," I said to him leaving my fear aside.
It all started that day.
The day everything was taken from me.
"11 years ago"
"Rath come here," my mother called.
"yes coming," i said.
As i went into my house my mother told me to fill buckets from water from the river.
"yes" i said and took empty buckets to fill.
As i walk down village i saw my sister playing with her friends
"mom was calling u home," i said
"yes" she said to me
As i go by the river i filled both buckets and was on way home when i saw birds flying like they are running
As i enter into the village
"rath" a small voice came into my ears.
"chio" I said.
"How are you?" She asked
"Fine, What about you?" I asked
"i am fine as well" she replied.
"Would you dance with me" I asked.
"Yes obviously" she replied to me.
"Bye for now i have to go home" I said
She chuckled and said goodbye and i went home.
"at night"
There was festival at village.
the festival where we pray him.
God of flames Kalagni.
As it was getting dark the festival started the flames were on
There was water shortage so me and my friend decided to go bring water from river
As we were done with filling up water i saw something in woods
"you go ahead i will come," i said to my friend
As i tried too what was in the woods i fell down and had a bit bleeding i treated it immediately
Sudden i heard screams of people and saw smoke coming out
I ran towards the village. As i saw something fearsome creature that disappeared in blink of eye. like something big like a dragon like an ASUR. As i saw my mother lying on the ground her clothes ripped off she was bleeding she was dead.
i saw dead body of my sister as well and all the people i cared about
"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED HERE, PLEASE WAKE UP," I screamed in total terror.
As i saw my mother my sister my friends and even the girl i liked was dead on the ground. I was crying i couldn't handle this terror. I was crying i couldn't stop that cry.
I slightly went towards chio
"Chio Chio wake up we were gonna dance weren't we gonna dance chio" i said while crying out loud.
"After some Time"
I was wondering through forest having only one hope my father. he lived in Referia. he leaved us when i was 6 years old. i don't wanna meet him but i have only one hope left.
"As i got the nearby city{Referia},"
Knocks on the door. as i my father came out
he asked "Who,"
I was gonna reply as i heard a voice from behind a voice of a 3 year old.
"papa who is there," she asked
"I don't know" my father replied to her.
Why she is calling him father what the heck he is my father who is she. I was thinking that as my father asked.
"who are you child, what do you want"
"I am your son father, i am the son u abandoned" I replied to him.
He was shocked. terrified seeing me like i was a threat for him. like i was just a stone in his way that he wanted to get rid of. as the 3 year old girl was watching me.
"What do u want," my father asked me with disgust.
"What do i want you ask" i replied.
"Father mother died, whole clan died in a forest fire i need your help" i said to him begging for help in hopes of he will take me in.
He looked straight into my eyes and said
"Fuck off"
What ? did i heard him right no wonder he abandoned us he is a monster.
"I have no value for you, Don't interfere in my anymore" He said to me.
This cant be true is he abandoning me again. because of you my mother died because of you my sister died and u are here enjoying with your new family WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU. I thought to myself.
"Papa he is scary" the small girl said.
Scary what i don't care about you, who are u to judge me. i thought to myself
"SHU you are scaring my daughter," my father said.
Scaring your daughter.
"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU" I said and i couldn't think straight at that moment. i was angry and anger took over me and i.
I was gonna punch that little girl but i couldn't i just couldn't punish her for others mistakes.
My father got angry and started to beat me up.
"How dare you" He said
"you were the one who abandoned us my mother and my sister and now me" i said
He punched me and said "the sister you are talking about wasn't even your full sister, she didn't have my blood"
I was shocked.
What ? what do you even mean?
he was still beating me.
I ran into the forest as soon as i got a chance.
So everything was a lie.
everyone is a liar.
My foot slipped.
The earth opened beneath me as i fell into the darkness.
I hit the ground hard. breath left my lungs. blood filled my mouth
In this dim light of cave something waited.
A sword.
I wrapped my fingers around it. They trembled not from fear, but from the weakness didn't matter anymore.
Whoever burned my clan
whoever butchered my family
The blade reflected my eyes-empty, ruined.
I tightened my grip
"I swear on this blood"
"I will hunt you down'
"And when i find you"
"I will Burn you alive"
As i vowed in that dark cave.
