hi again readers! here's some more of me story!
The Oracle - part four
Stranger woke up with a terrible head-ache. He had only figured out that he was inside some sort of a building, made of some strong bambosticks. He raised up on his reeling legs and tried to walk. At the same time he felt that his hind legs were chained up and the chains were stucked in the wall of the jail-liked hut. Suddenly a hoarse voice came from one of the hut's dusky corners. Stranger looked around in the little hut with a scared look for the owner of the voice. The voice said:
- You'll never get out of those chains without a key. You know, these chains can only be open by the one who's in charge for the Village's jail...and it used to be the Master, but now he has left the task to me.
- Who are you? What do you want from me anyway? Show yourself, said Stranger with angerness.
Abruptly, a shadow showed from on of the corners and soon a thin feminine body began to apear. Stranger rubed his eyes and after a couple seconds he saw that a female Legendary had come out from her hideout. She looked gently at him with her darkbrown eyes. She said:
- I heard from the Master that you're the Steef who intruded our land, is that correct?
- Intruded? I've never intruded your land! I mean the Grubb Leader and I were suposed to see the Oracle who lives on the other side of your territories in an ancient cave and...well we were first about to walk the long way around but then the Leader said that she knew a shortcut we could take instead, and so we did, explained Stranger to The female Legendary.
She nodded a little and said:
- If I shall be honest to you...I don't bother if there are any ones on our lands...
- What do you mean by that? Is there something I should know, asked Stranger carefully.
- I don't know if I can trust you, but at the same time it feels like you're trustworthy...alright if yu really want to know. I'll only tell you if you promise not to tell anyone of the other Legendaries in the village, promise?
- I promise, I wont tell anyone else, answered Stranger as he laid his hand on hers.
She sat down on the floor and strarted to tell him:
- Not long ago there were another spieces called the Toicers and they lived in our lands. They used to protect our territories and our tribe, but one day some hunters called the Wolclarks, a related spieces to the Wolwarks, came and tried to attack our homes, but then the Toicers defended us and defeated them Wolclarks. The Wolclarks didn't return after that so the leader of the Toicers, known as Strongus told our Alpha-leader that they couldn't protect us from something which didn't threating us or our lands so...they left our territories and has never returned since then. But It didn't take long time before the Wolclarks came back and terrorized us again. In that time we used to live on the ground, but these terrorists make us move high up in the trees and we've been here since the attack...and only the Toicers had the techinque and knowledge of fighting so it was kind of hard to defeat the enemies for us. Anyway we haven't got any threatings for a long time now, thanks to our method of being awake on the nights and sleeping on the days, which had given us more time to practice more on weapons, time to get married and so on... we only live up here, but the lands stil belongs to us... as one People, one Tribe.
- So you mean that your tribe were helpless like the Grubb tribe? But how do you survive so high up in the trees? I mean, the animals you hunt, are awaken on the day and...stranger began to say before he got interuppted by The female Legedary.
- Some of us are awaken on the day but that's only our guards and they use to hunt the food for us in the tribe, it's a hard work but they always succeed. At first, we were a people who were, well not helpless, but we hadn't the skills of fighting so, you may call it "The fightingless Legendaries of the South" but now we're one of the Strongest Tribes in the world.
- Right..., said Stranger with a sigh, What's your name?
- I'm not suposed to tell prisoners my name, but... you've shown me that you're trustworthy enough...my name is Liana, but you may call me Lia. What's your name?
- Well, the Grubb Leader calls me Stranger so I guess you can call me that to, answered Stranger with a smile.
hope ya guys liked it!
