Chapter 2 The Warriors

It been months since I lived at my stepmother. The next morning Azali came to wake me up.

"Raija dear, it time to wake up." She called.

I woke up when I heard her. When I went down stairs she had breakfast ready.

"Where we going today, stepmother?" I asked.

"Today we are going to meet an old friend of mines."

I nodded my head ok. After we had breakfast, we got ready and left the house. By the late morning hours, we arrived at a temple.

"What are we doing here, stepmother?" I asked her.

"I used to live here long time ago, Raija. I was a monk here."

After waiting outside, the door finally open. There was a small yellow monk greeting us.

"Hello hornable strangers." He bow down. "What brings you to this temple?"

"We are here to see Master Fung." Azali said.

"Right this way."

The little monk took us to the next temple. Out of nowhere three more monks came out an attack me. One of the monks grab me by my arms.

"No wait!" I started to yell. "I'm not here to hurt anyone!"

"Nice try Hannibal Bean. You not going to steal our wu this time!" One of the monks said.

"Who is Hannibal?" I asked. "I'm not him!"

"Are you sure?"

"Hey get your hands off of him!" I heard Azali yelling at the monks.

"Sorry lady, we thought this bean was someone else we know."

"I know how you are talking about, but this child is not him."

"That enough!" Just then another monk came out exspect he his a warrior. The monks let me go.

"Welcome home,Azali. It been to long." He said.

"Thank Master Fung." She bow down to him. "This is my son Raija."

Master Fung bend down and looked at me. He looked at me like he already no me from somewhere.

"This child seem to familer." He said. "But still there is evil I since in him."

"Raija is not evil." Azali said.

Master Fung nodded his head ok. Then I thought I heard one of the other monks saying something about me.

"I don't know guys, Raija dose looked like Hannibal Bean. Is it possable." There leader said.

"He don't look evil, but still we should keep our eyes on him." The girl monk said.

I really didn't like what they said about me. I got a little nerves around them after awhile. But still there where questions that was in my head. Who is Hannibal Bean? What is he like?
