Chapter 7:
The broken bond
Diane and Alex smirked knowing that Arna had put Emito in his place. Luna also smiled when Emito put his head down in shame. Others who gathered around looked satisfied with Emito's humiliation. "Emito we agreed to join forces because you cared about the people. But it seems like you have displeasure against element users. It looks like we were wrong," Omar stated. "We do not want an ally who discriminates against people based on their gift. Change your thinking or consequences will be dire, "Nano warns.
They resume their meeting without Arna. Nano put out a sigh while listening to others input for the next raid. As the clock struck the top of the hour, Nano's stern gaze swept across the room, his authoritative tone cutting through the last echoes of discussion. "Thank you all for your valuable insights. We'll reconvene tomorrow at the same time. Dismissed." Everyone at the meeting left one by one after exchanging few words with Nano. Nano fear clung to him for his children safety as he looked at the empty seats hoping their next raid would make a difference in the war against the high class.
After leaving the meeting halfway, Arna went to the training ground to throw some fireballs to increase her accuracy. "Your fire element works well when you're angry," commented Luciana but Arna told her to shut uo . The sky was shimmering with beautiful stars and the forest was beautifully lit with the moon's light but Arna was solely focus on her training to keep her mind occupied.
Arna kept quiet while throwing fireballs suddenly an arrow passed through her and hit her target dummy. "Arna you shouldn't walk out like that," a voice called out to her. She turns her head towards the direction of the voice. It was none other than her little brother Miguel. "Your aim is getting good," she praised her brother. Miguel flushed with the sudden compliment but quickly return to reality. She knew her brother wanted to check up on her to make sure she is alright.
Miguel wanted to inform what the resistance decision but she silences him by saying "Careful Miguel even the trees may have ears,". Suddenly a blood-curling shriek was heard through the forest which made shocked and confused. It also made them scared and worried as no one can enter the forest without Lexdon's permission also everyone from the resistance also left. Miguel was the one who leads them out of the forest. So who was it? Without giving it much thought both of them ran towards the screeching hoping it wasn't their foe .
