CHAPTER 8

We're Gifted
Chapter 8
Kriza's POV:
I'm here at the top of the roof carrying my bow and arrows. I really like staying on top of the roof because I can see everything below and the view of the night sky. I'm wearing black long sleeve over a blue sleeveless dress under knee level, a boots and a brown hooded robe.
I took a glance below while smiling. My smile fade when I saw a suspicious girl walking. She is wearing black hooded robe, carrying a cage were a crow was trapped in it and the way she's walking it was like she's too careful in every step. Walking, like her shoes will never gets dirty.
I get down on the roof by the ladder. I followed her secretly not far from her. I felt daze following her.
I've been following her for almost a hour and I still don't know where she's going to. The next thing I know is where here at the woods. She stop so me as well and hide from a big tree.
The strong breeze of the wind, the dancing trees, and the leaves that falling from tree.
I peek on her. She is holding now the crow and putting a small piece of paper at the one leg of crow. I can't her what she's saying so I decided to get a little near at her. I step forward when I step at a branch of the tree that creates  sound.
"I'm dead." stunned at my position and being a little bit nervous.
Third person's POV:
The woman wearing the robe quickly turned in the direction of the noise. It immediately approached to take a look. She's so careful as she walks just for not  making noise.
She prepared herself. She sighed when she saw that it was only one young deer was here. She flew the crow with a letter.
******
And enemy's territory...
The crow entered inside the broken house from the window.
The whole area is not very clear to you because of the darkness and many trees surrounding the whole house.
The crow perched on the hand of a man. He took the letter and read it. He immediately burned the paper until it turned into ashes.
The whole area is very dark. The only ones that shine are the lamps and torches with fire.
The house in which they live will be seen to have experienced a bad event. It looks like it was been a battle fields.
"If she's right, Kriza is the one I've been looking for a long time. We need to confirm first if she's the one I'm looking for." They headed out wearing black robes.
"I'll take care of it master. Don't worry and I'll just warn Kriza." Said the woman wearing a long lava mermaid style gown.
"Do what you want" replied the leader
"Even if Kriza is hurt?" The woman assures
"Even if she is hurt, just don't let hed die. That's part of our plan." Permission of the leader the lady in lava dress smirk and walk away.
Tasha's POV:
We thought we'd just walk.
"Hey! Zyck What happened to you dre?" the monkey asked
"Huh?!" Zyck's confused question to monkey Ruben
"Hayyst" made Ruben gasp "You know, you didn't have a care on everything until now but this one, before, you care a lot. Why?" the monkey who becomes the gossiper
"Nothing" shrugs his shoulders
"Guys, we need to make sure we don't slip when Kriza is there." Richard warned
"Yeah, we need to not reveal that we're hiding something. Milk girl might find out." Dexter
"Milk girl?" Alexa furrowed while she asked
"Ayy, we didn't inform you all. Kriza is Milk girl." Rex
"Don't tell me, the three of you made Kriza's nickname?" I conclude, looking at Rex, Dexter and Ruben at the same time.
The three of them look at each other and I know what it means to stare at them. We're dead, that's what their stare indicates.
"Tsk. Anyways, we should hurry up and go home it's already night." me
"Wow, Tasha is that you?" Ruben's teasing
"No this is not me" I rolled my eyes and copying the way he said
"Monkey, can you please shut up. Let's go home now. I'm not in the mood." I said
Yes, I'm not in the mood Now after what we know about Kriza's life. We are the reason why she's alone. Haysst it's too stressful for my beauty. I need a beauty sleep.
Kriza's POV:
I'm here close to where I was then. Fortunately, a young deer came so I quickly left there and hid in the big grass near there.
"Thanks baby deer. Your my lifesaver." I whispered to myself I'm just waiting to leave the suspicious woman. She is not that tall but I feel she is strong.
When she left I immediately came out of hiding in big grass. I looked at her while walking away.
I let out a heavy sigh. I look up at the sky there is so many stars shining.
I walked around. It was very dark and only the moon that gave light to this forest. You can hear the loud cricket and the rumble of the tree.
"I have a bad feeling about that woman. I have to be careful and I  should keep an eye on her.
"Shit!" I facepalm, probably don't know that woman and another, I can't follow her anymore.
I don't know why I would do it but there's something that tells me I have to do it because it's the right thing to do.
Tsk. I don't want to get involved in any trouble but I guess I have no choice. I started to walk to get out of this forest. I may encounter many wild animals or I may get lost again. But what else can I do because I chose to follow that woman and spent a long time here in the forest. Maybe I should face the consequences of my actions. I closed my eyes and started walking.
