The Number Five volume thirty four

The more he laughed the more curious I became, his laughter enraged me. everyone who laughed around me was making fun of my misery." Stop laughing, tell me about Him now!", it took him a few minutes to realize that I was being serious. " sorry, look Jim Never killed anything!", he had to be joking about what he had said. my response was fueled with frustration. " How come he is the second highest rank adventurer!?", during my frustration I accidentally grabbed the owner's coat. he was scared of upset about my actions, he just started laughing again. I let go of him shaking my head, he lost his marbles. turned my back to the owner " How come the women behind the desk at the guild warned me about Jim?". he sucked his teeth whispering under his breath" Fucking Bitch, can't keep her mouth shut", he sighed after his whispering. "look I don't have the right to tell you about Jim, I know everything about him. his story isn't for the faint of the heart, honestly it's disrespectful to talk behind someone's back.". I know his story is nowhere near what kind of hellishness I've been through. him defending Jim confused my outlook on him, I couldn't tell if the woman was giving a warning. or was it sympathy for the partner I've just partied with, this place is so fucked up. " seeing how you can't tell me about Jim, how you telling me more about Daragain. and all of its past adventures". a rapid tapping echo into my eardrums, every second went by more rapid it became. I shifted my body towards the tapping, the owner was broken into a cold sweat. his eyes were darting across the room. his lips instantly dried after I shifted his direction, his voice panicking. ", which one y-you want to know about?!", this was the reaction I wanted I knew this place. Daragain was hiding a secret about the guild, " tell me about the man who the Statue is made for?", suddenly his started to cough up blood. with a hand spattered with his own blood," do you mean Adamsin?". saying his name caused a man to cough up blood, how scary was the one man. " yes Adamsin tell me more about him now!", Darkouls interrupts mid conversation. " Kid I'll explain later about Adamsin, I know more about him than anyone who ever lived". hours went past Jim got tired of my looking around , he told the owner " he will take this one". I left the store with a squared shield, also with a small blunt weapon. Jim told me this weapon was called a mace, I was afraid of the weapon. it had the same texture I was used to, it feels never wracking holding a weapon. I'm scared of it even though I'm holding it, I heard the laughter of the past when I first held the weapon. Maybe just maybe the noise would stop I know it's asking for a lot, this could lead to my downfall. what if it gets out of hand where I lash out on someone just cause the past triggers it, I already hurt enough people already. I hope I did the right thing for Steve, that power which I have no name for. hell even now what it can do. I want to save the others, saving the others could be that I can accidentally kill them. maybe Tori was right they don't need me even if they did I would probably be more of a threat to them than a Savior. After leaving the blacksmith Jim left me without warning. walking the streets of Daragain, all of the townspeople had gone to bed already. there I was again staring at the statue of Adamsin still unsure of this character. " Kid through that Mace away I know what weapon you need, this weapon is made for us". " made for us what are you talking about!, I think the visions are starting to get to your head". gazing around at all the broken homes, maybe their is much of a past of Daragain. " Kid trust me, follow my lead. do you remember where you landed at, thirty eight hundred meters from your landing is a weapon for you". " what in the hell are you talking about?!". why shouldn't I trust him so he didn't warn me about my powers, he did tell me even he didn't understand them. I hate living life like this trusting people I've met for a year or two then poof there gone or I'm gone. back then it was worse seeing them look at you with a twinkle in their eyes, then after a year their twinkle was gone. I want to forget about that, those memories are more like nightmares a constant reminder that I'm a failure. I decided to take the advice that Darkouls gave me, made my way back to the place where I was placed gently. even though it is dark outside I can see everything, the frogs,spider, wolf's. oh shit that's a fucking wolf, well it's just one right now. more eyes appeared behind me, just fucking great. " Kid, I would love to use my powers.it would cause you more harm seeing that if using it once causes you to faint.". sadly I had to agree with Darkouls if I use his powers I won't make it out, so I have two choices. Either I run away which I mean I have zero chance of seeing this is their backyard, or the only option I have is to fight. I never got into a fight before, I normally just get beat up. this time I feel like I can win against them. forty five wolves come from the shadows, my confidence was gone after the step out of the shadows. all of the Wolves heads were on the ground, I didn't know what to do. a sharp blade was pushed into the back of my head, all I could think about is "Fuck".
