The tales of the Hibinackies
He was dead, him and his men dead. Right in front of my very own eyes I saw the truth; I couldn't
lie or deny ∙it any longer. I trusted him, I loved him and some how I believed, if he discovered who
I was he would turn away from The Dark one and joining us. Unfortunately that if came true and
he did not take it as I imagined it. What a fool I was to think in such a way, who was I to assume I
could compete with gold, food, and most of all, power. I tried to warn him, I tried to help him and
what does he do, he tries to attack me like his pathetic spare could ever faze me! I easily used the
power of elements and blew him right out of the hut! The thing I will never forget is the way he
stared at me panting clenching his chest with the look of disgust in his eyes, but why did he look at
me in such a way, he knew about the other world. I guess he couldn't believe that he was married
to some sort of freak, but I am human just like him. The Dark one probably told him lies about our
people, if my husband only new the truth, maybe his life could have been spared. He tried to
attack me again but Cheng my brother came out of nowhere and breathe fire on him. The
Hibinacky people had started to arrive for the surprise attack. I watched the bright orange flame
burn, I heard his agonizing cries but I stood there, I could have easily used the power of elements
to help him, by using water. If I had did such a thing the Hibinackies would think of me a traitor,
why should I risk my life twice for a voracious man. Finally he had stopped scrumming around, he
did not move at all, but the flame stilled burn bright. I felt distressed and ashamed, but I new it had
to be done. My husband's men called the Bahao tribe manage to kill so many of the Hibinacky
people. My people the Hibinacky are gifted humans, we have the power of the elements wind,
earth, water, and fire are duty; to protect the both worlds. The Dark one knows his job would be
easier without us interfering. He managed to turn humans and magical creatures against us. Even
innocent children, who were only born into the confusion were killed all just because their
hibinackies. Whole families wiped out! They came from the far south they were suppose to help
China fight against the rising rebellion, but now I know the true reason, they our weren't allies. I
guess that's what greed does. I took my eyes off my husband and did not notice that my brother
was gone, I looked around and I saw the destruction, a battle raged in front of me, against my
people; the hibinacky and my husband's tribe. Those men out there deserved to die I would kill
them with my bare hands. But I am carrying a child and would not risk my child's life so I hid
away in the hut and waited for the roar of battle to die down. After what seem a long time I came
out of the hut cautiously. I saw two men standing outside the hut. One was stern and stood tall he
looked like he was from the southeast and the other one had a forced smile, I believed he came
from the far south. I knew it was safe they were wearing the hibinai necklace, they were
Hibinackies. The one with the smile spoke and told me my brother told them to keep watch over
me; he said it wasn't really any work at all. I said thank you to men and headed for the vacant
battle field. I walked slowly absorbing the many dead bodies that covered the earth, there open
wounds; where there blood flowed like a river. Many hibinacky people were slaughtered, I had
turn away a couple of times in disgust, I do not like to admit it but apart of me was searching to
see if my brother was one of those people who lay dead. I suddenly stopped dead in my tracks to
see a familiar face, it was one of my husband men; Nieamtu. I used to look up to him he was a
wise man how could he make such an unwise decision. I felt bad for thinking they all deserve to
die; the real problem was The Dark one. This only fueled my desire to make him pay for lives he
ruined; for what he turned my husband into; for what he did to my mother. I cried out to the earth
in the gory battle field channeling the fierce winds "I'll make him suffer, for the infectious blood that
runs through my veins!"
