another chapter but i may stop here for VERY LONG as i haven thought of Chapter 5 yet
Chapter 4
We ran as fast as our legs could carry us. Ganbranth turned and saw us running.
“I deal with you later!” Ganbranth warned the man who was still suffering from field shock.
I leapt up and gave him a crash to the head. Strangely, he seemed unharmed!
“Was that the best you could do?” with that, he threw his palm into my face and charged it with flaming materia. I could feel the scorching heat as if I was being pushed into a lump charcoal.
“Heeyaa!” Stephanie yelled as she thrust her spear into Ganbranth’s arms, loosening his grip on me.
“You shouldn’t have done that!” Ganbranth scowled as he let out an ear piercing scream, morphing into a demon.
“I was waiting for that!” Stephanie laughed. She took out her bow and arrow and shot Ganbranth. Surprisingly, Ganbranth collapse and died.
“Just like that,” I questioned Stephanie. She shook her head and pointed to the corpse. The armor disappeared and a dead body appeared. But it was not Ganbranth’s dead body; it was just someone I did not recognize. Instantly, a Smokey figure left the body and vanished.
“And why is that,” I asked Stephanie.
She had her arms akimbo and replied “That was not Ganbranth, just his soul.”
What? I could not believe it she killed an innocent on purpose!
“And you killed him?” I yelled. I loaf the sight where innocents die.
“Lash, if I didn’t Ganbranth would kill him over time and find another body!”
The man walked up to us and said, “That person who was possessed by Ganbranth was my brother…”
“I’m sorry,” Stephanie apologized.
“Nah, it is not your fault, but can I join you guys? I swear, I will get revenge and slay Ganbranth myself!” Okay, that makes it three allies!
“Welcome to the group! But do you have a weapon?” I enquired; he needs a weapon to get Ganbranth.
“Yes, a Katana.” Stephanie reached over for the Katana and inspected it “Looks like there is no materia in it, I will have to charge it up. It will take at least two days.”
“Thanks a lot!”
“Before I forget, I’m Lash and she is Stephanie. You are?” I asked. “Pleasure to meet you, I’m Janzen Willmore, but you can just call me Janzen.” He introduced himself.
“Alright Janzen, though you will get your sword charged up, but you need some training and materia in yourself. Mine is fire and Stephanie’s poison. So choose do you want fire, poison, speed or any others?” I offered.
“I’ll take speed then,” he replied with eagerness.
“Alright I will train you accordingly. Training starts tomorrow so don’t be late. In the mean time, get some rest it’s gonna be a long day tomorrow pal!” I told him the schedule and went to pitch the tent for the night.
