Zia started panicking as she saw the blood on him ...
"Don't worry, it's not my blood" he said and walked outside the house and Zia followed him ...As she came out, she saw a large wild boar lying down full of blood all around ...The smell of the blood is so heavy that it's making her head spin ...Still, she stood stillWill bought all the knives necessary and sat down beside it,He started sharpening the knives and started cutting its hair and skinWill have a special place fool of the knives.He stores hammers, shovels, chisels, and knives of all sizes and kinds.It is a hobby and special collection of Will-------"Ah…that stinks," he said, sniffing the t-shirt he is wearing ...He removed it and threw it down.Zia saw a lot of scars on Will's back and there is a large scar from his chest to his stomachwhich looks so old but so deep.He pumped the water and started washing his clothes.Zia slowly touched the scar on the backWill flinched "What are you doing?" he shouted.She was looking up at his face and the scar..."Do you want to know how I got this?" he asked, and she nodded."Well....let's just say that I got this from doing something that I am very proud of, and also it doesn't hurt," he said with a smile patting her head-----"Can you bring me the coal, it will be back of the house" he said sharpening his knivesShe bought them as asked in a small bucket.Will, placed two large rocks parallel and placed the grill on top, keeping the coal and wood in between the rocks...Will has a very special technique for cooking juicy grilled meat with a heavenly tasteEveryone who has ever tasted his meat always says that he should open a restaurant, which was often ignored by WillZia went inside and brought the plate and the spices required on command of Will."Here," he said, handing the plate full of meat to Zia.She took a piece and kept it in her mouth.Her eyes tingled, glowing.Will chuckled as he can read here."Is it good?" he asked and Zia nodded vigorously"Okay, okay I get it .here have some more," he said adding a few more pieces ...-----"Ahh...that hit the spot," he said lying down.It's past 3 in the afternoon...The sun is hiding under the clouds, being shy to come out.It was cloudy, but not as much as it will rain ...It was cool, yet a small heat raised due to eating the meat ...He saw Zia sleeping beside him ..."She does sleep a lot""If I see closely they both look so much similar" he mumbled staring at her closely ...He took a picture of a woman from his pocket"if you died protecting her, I should do the same too ..." he said touching Althea's picture------"I love you" A 12-year boy courageously confessed with his trembling hands which held a rose, to a 22 hear lady standing in front of him with a shocked expression.She smiled a bit looking at his facehe shut his eyes hard"Thank you," she said with a smile, "but---"------will open his eyes suddenly and sit up."I guess I fell asleep," he said, rubbing his eyes."I just wanted to protect that smile from far but in the end, I couldn't do anything" he mumbled and looked at Zia."At least protecting her will make me guilt free"It is dark outside.The cold breeze is hitting the skinIt is so cold ...He raised Zia in his arms and took her inside, placing her on the bed.Lit the firewood in the chimney--------***BANG BANG BANG***Zia woke up hearing the loud noises of like someone banging on the door.She got down from her bed and walked to the hall and saw Will sleeping soundly on the ground.She brought a bedsheet and covered him with it ...***BANG BANG***.Again she heard the sound …She came out of the house.It was so dark and cold.The moon is covered with clouds and the lighting is so low.She can hardly see anything.All she can depend on is her instincts.***BANG BANG***.She flinched as she heard again.She slowly walked in the direction of where the noise is coming from ...Furthermore, she stopped at the edge of the back of the house.***BANG BANG BANG*** the sounds are being heard so clearly from down the cliff.She looked down and it was pitch black.And she knows the sound is coming from the "WALL OF DEATH"The path going down to the wall is completely covered with thorns.She slowly moved them one by one, moving down.Her hand is bleeding from getting pricked too many times, but the sound gets larger and clearer as she is going down.She couldn't stop ...Her small body stood in front of the large wall which was built centuries ago with the blood of many people's deaths.It is a large, thick wall which is so tall that the ending is not visible ...It is built into the skyIt was magically protected using the blood of the people who died as a sacrifice in the war.This is the first time she has ever seen this from so near.[looks like built by the heavens from the top]she heard some whispers as she moved in front.She crouched down, placing her hands on her knees, and tried to see if she can see anything.But all she can hear is the voice of some people, but can't exactly hear what it is.***BANG BANG BANG*** …She suddenly heard the sound and flinched moving back ...it felt like the wall was moving, but it was just a delusionThe sound stopped, and she moved front againshe slowly placed her hands on the wall, and she felt a greasy feeling on her hand.[Ahh .what is that] she pulled her hands away immediately and smelled, and it was BLOOD ...She rubbed her hands on her dress quickly panicking by the blood.The blood felt as fresh as new, but there is no trace of the blood on her hands except a delusion...[Where is the blood] she thought panickingThe mumbling sounds slowly reduced as time went on...She stood there in her confused state afraid to touch the wall again yet curious to know what is happeningAfter too much silence without a reason to stay anymore, she walked back and placed the thorns exactly in their previous position.Her hand started bleedingshe rubbed the blood on her dress and reached the house ... locked the door and hopped on the bed covering herself with the blanket ...[warm]----she woke up with the constant shaking of Will"What's all this blood," he asked concernedly.Her hands swelled with all the pricking of the thorns.She showed her hands to him."What the hell happened" he shouted as he is taking the first aid kit from the top shelf of the kitchen[I guess I can't say I went down the cliff
Zia slowly opened her eyes,she was lying on the groundshe stood up and there is fog completely covering the area.She was barefoot, the air is making her nauseous. She covered her nose with her hands and with small steps started moving forward.She heard someone talking, but couldn't understand a word. It was too dark to see anything...as time passed, her eyes slowly adjusted to the dark.The ground felt greasyThe air touching her skin made her tremble.The place doesn't look normal ...She ran and hid behind a rock as she heard some footsteps...She clenched her dress and shut her eyes hard..."Who are you" she heard a voice, the sounding low yet harsh and also at the same time showing a sense of authorityShe turned back to see him.The darkness covered his face, but she could see a tall manhis hands were covered with blood.Drop by drop, it's falling on the ground ...His nails felt sharp enough to peel the flesh out of the human bodyHe slowly moved his hands towards Zia.---
Zia woke up excitedly for her birthday.She saw a dress near her feet on the edge of the bed.She got off the bed and ran out.Will is making breakfast for her."Happy birthday," he said with a smile looking at her.She nodded her head happily and ran to take a bath."We should decorate the house now," Will said as Zia is washing the plates.She nodded and finished washing quickly-----Will baked a cake and got the cream ready in a bowl along with half-cut strawberries to decorate the cake. He decorates the cakethey both decorated the house by evening.Will along with the cake cooked a special dish for her.He smashed the beef, added necessary spices, made them into small balls, and fried them in the oilAs oil is a very expensive product, this is the first time Zia is eating something cooked with oilHe placed the cake with 11 candles on the top"Wish, before blowing the candles"Zia closed her eyes and blew out the candles."What did you wish for," he asked and Zia made a cross wi
Will walked to a room, present in the right corner of the top floor**knock**"come in"He pushed the door using the handle and stepped inside"so why did you call me," he said walking inside and sat downThere is a man sitting opposite him with large files and papers placed in front of him.He has green eyes with silver hair, wearing glasses. Gloomy eyes with dark circleswith a half-empty coffee cup beside him on the table along with a rose flower in a small flower vase beside the files"Oh my, how long has it been since you set your foot here? Sometimes, I wonder if you really are the owner"Will built this school 5 years ago with the money he got from completing the missions of helping people in trouble.After he built this school he took retirement from everything and settled in the forestHe doesn't like noisy places and responsibilities, so the property was handed temporarily to Charles who is presently working as the chairman of the school.Charles is an old friend who attende
Charles and Will are walking in a single line in a closed space enough for one person to fit.Charles lit the fire torch, which is present on the top right and left corners of the walls.They reached a door.Charles raised his hand and undone the seal on the doorWill pushed the door and both went inside, the student followed them silently.It is a large room covered with dust and the room looked like it was built a long time back.There is a book placed in the middle of the room where the light is only focussing on itThere is a magic line clearly visible to the naked eye.The student was surprised!"The seal is fading," Charles said and tried removing the sealHe suddenly got a sharp pain in his chest and fell down coughing blood"damn, you sealed it 5 years ago, and still the power is no joke," he said with a chuckled and the seal is undoneWill raised his hand towards the book and a magic circle is formed around the bookThe room shined brightly as the breeze went highHe let a dro
"what happened? are you alright?" he asked touching her face concernedlyshe took her book which is on the table beside the bed "did something happen?" he got surprised"N--no, you were just sleeping like you were dead so--" Zia got embarrassed and closed her face with her hands "sorry, I must've fallen asleep again," she wrote and showed him not looking at him "I..it's fine" he stuttered[what's this? why can't she remember something so big as going to the wall of death? she looked like she was hypnotized but who will do it to her? and why did she faint? ] "Zia" "hmm" "do you want to attend magic school?" Zia got surprised but remained calm clenching the bedsheet "you don't want to?" "I don't know magic,"she wrote in her book and showed him "I knowbut don't worry it's a normal school tooand also you can find by yourself if you have magic or not by professional professor's" [school? ..]----------(flashback) "hey, bring the bags fast" a kid ordered around eating a fr
"you are officially a student of this school now," Charles said coming out of his room along with will "I will be your tour guide," Charles said and started walking "let's check the dorms too" will said patting Zia and following Charles Charles gave a tour of all the rooms available in the school classrooms, auditorium, library, different kinds of sports rooms and many club rooms, a detention room and finally they came out to the school ground "The rooms are mostly full and you have to share a room with another person that's okay with you?" Charles asked while standing near the desk down the dorms Zia nodded and Charles waved to the dorm wardenShe showed them a room which is completely messy with a bed available to the right corner of the wall along with a balcony view "wow, girls sure scare me when I see all these messy rooms," Charles said trying to find a seat on the bed which is completely filled with laundry clothes Zia saw the view from the balcony and all she can see is
"I thought my school will be safe for her but it's making me anxious to leave her alone here after seeing what happened" will said angrily "you are scaring the child now" Charles said patting on will shoulder she took her book out "Your school?" she wrote and showed it to will"hmm" Charles came front and read that"you didn't tell her?" he asked, looking at willhe sat down on his knees, matching Zia's height"yes, he is the owner," he said smiling"Charles, tomorrow I will take the official position as a chairman, make all the necessary arrangements along with a room in the office"he said and left from there with Zia"It's only been a few days since he started living with her, but he sure changed a lot.He is more soft and responsible now" Charles said with a small chuckle"Unlike you, "Walt said and turned back walking inside the school"Hey, what does that mean""I have class now bye" he waved without looking back walking inside"wait for me"-------(Next day)Will is looking
