26 Spotted...

Eradan had just watched that creature being trapped in a thick cage surrounded by fire. A feeling of disappointment clawed Eradan's heart. The whimpers of that creature really had lots of effects on him making him feel incomplete.

An adversity of the wild...

The youth watched that creature being carried away by two minions of the exquisitely dressed Man. To his surprise, he found out that they were both able to generate flames, hence, there were special ability wielders in this world he dwelled in. Did he miss this information after he transmigrated? Who knows?

The Exquisitely dressed individual and his remaining minions had departed leaving the buffy man and his group behind.

Scumbag!

Blue eyes were etched with rage as Eradan watched the buffy individual bounce the satchel of gold in his palm. He felt like forcing that satchel into that bastards mouth. He watched them discuss and laugh as they began to depart, following an unfamiliar route.

An idea crossed Eradan's mind, he was going to follow them to spot their turf and also steal the cash if possible. He had just stealthily stepped out of his hiding when he felt a fist grasp him by his fabrics.

Gotcha!

A sonate came beside him.

"Thought I wouldn't find you?" It added

His hideout had been discovered and busted. He was spotted. A gush of adrenaline surged into his body, passing through any conduct within it.

His heart thumped harder and faster while he felt it drop into his stomach. Eradan could swear that his soul had eloped from his body.

A tentative reaction broke in...

Eradan fiercely shoved himself of the grip that attached his cloth and broke in a fast pace. He was sure that the force he excerted were enough to send the individual on his ass.

"There's a spy within our fortress! Catch him!"

He heard as his legs ran, moving to and fro. How could he totally forget about that assertive individual whom he narrowly escaped his first gaze.

Rustling sounds followed up as those other Individual came after him, their feets grazing the grassy soil. Through the scanty alignment of the trees within this niche, they were able to sight a running figure in blue outfit— it's long hair swaying behind it.

Was that a lady?

As Eradan sprinted forward, his legs felt like they were not his, while his eyes were attacked by the current he passed by. The youth heard their hurried footsteps inch closer to him as he ran. He knew fully well that they could spot him due to the scantiness of woods in his current niche, but he would have to beat it.

Eradan breathed rapidly, relief washing his being and soothing his demeanor. He had spotted the spear grass mass which was close to the coniferous forest that led to the other side. A bubbling feeling of hope graced him... He was going to escape this.

Eradan finally ran into the long spear grass area and they were quite a bit hindrance to his pace as few strands of his hair kept attaching on those sticky leaves.

He ran and ran until he is was out of the spear grass domain and now into the coniferous one.

This Serene environment of coniferous trees were disturbed by the sound of hurried footsteps and panting. Eradan ran as though his life depended on it.

Suddenly,

Other footsteps followed up, adding to the disturbance of this Forrest. Although not for Eradan, but his chaser were quite dazed by the dazzling sight of this forest. Had this location been here all along or did it just manifest? They sure had scouted around but never made contact with this place.

And like nothing happened, they focused on the feminine figure they were chasing...

"Woah!" Eradan came to a halt. Were his eyes the problem or was this gentle stream before him violent. The stream which was the route to the other side raged and rumbled. Dangerous Swirls and turns gracefully danced at the top of the stream. It's rush was indeed berserk.

A sharp, bright lightening flashed through the sky— jolting the youth in an uneasy shudder.

Blue oceanic pupils of Sharp features bedecked the sky of the other side and witnessed the cluster of dark, grey clouds dropping heavy showers of rain.

The other side hallowed the downpour of immense rain, while violent wind swayed those trees to oblivion.

Brows knotted up in thought, how was it bright and sunny in his side but gloomy and berserk at the other end. However, Eradan disbarred his thought and focused on reality.

Eradan shifted his gaze behind him, sighting his chasers that inched closer— then back to the raging stream before him.

A feeling of dilemma enveloped him...

He once again shifted his gaze to and fro, darting from his chasers to the raging stream.

The youth couldn't tell which option to choose. Was he to jump into the stream or be held captive by those individuals that approached him?

As Eradan rummaged his mind for a choice, his captors inched closer.

Without further ado, two hands  of red palms were about to grab the figure before it, but suddenly missed it.

The youth had dived into the raging stream...

A beauty within this raging stream splashed bluish green water as he fought with the violent current of the stream. The restless stream tended to be pushing and trailing him to an unknown destination.

The youth shifted his gaze to his place of alight, only to meet the gaze of his chasers. Within their sight, he was like a beauty in deep peril. Surrounded by the berserk tides of the creek he dived into.

Eradan voluntarily darted his stare back to the direction the stream trailed him to, feeling hot glares at his neck. The youth had succumbed to the flow of the stream, accepting to arrive at wherever it took him to.

On and on the stream trailed, until the youth was out of sight. Only then did a particular figure come into view.

"What happened?" It asked, but was welcomed with glares and silence from the others. "Oh! I see, he jumped into the stream" 

The mage took bland steps and approached the moist land close to the raging stream. He casted a glance at the stream and was graced with a horizon of raging waters... No sign of the youth. How daring!

His eyes gave shades of purple while his hands were corralled with purple divinity.

The once raging stream came to a halt of smooth movement, while every single dark grey cloud that encroached the sky dissipated.

A subtle glimmer of sunlight welcome them...

Coming back to himself, this mage furrowed his brows at how daring this individual was for his specie. He knew the youth was heading to this location that was why he casted the raging storm— hoping to make the youth back down, but he preserved! Really daring he was.

He watched his members pant heavily due to how long they had ran. Shifting his gaze from them, he decided to head back to their turf; disappointment etched in his face. Only if that youth wasn't this daring!

"When you said he jumped, what did you mean by that?"

The female one them pried, just as she had replenished her lost energy. Her gaze fixed on the mage who paused to answer her,

"I meant that the figure is a male... A man" The mage answered, not batting an eye at them.

His answer earned a shock from all of them. They were really suprised that, that lady in distress whom they were ogling at was a man! Some of them felt disgusted with themselves while others shuddered at their thoughts.

"Why then, does he look Soo much like a woman, more beautiful than the one amongst us?" Another pried, showing off a mocking look at the female pirate among them.

The others laughed inwardly at the sudden joke. She was served with her own dish...

"That's because he's an Aelkan. Besides, our missing map is at the other side of the stream"

The mage moved on, bearing in mind that the individual he had come in contact with, was a very powerful Cupid...

AELKAN

Finally Eradan is going to be out of the woods and into the main world of meeting lots of peeps. Voila... Bye bye.
