Hey so I just wanted to post this a bit early because I maybe very, very, very, very busy from Friday-Sunday. So that's why I'm posting this chapter today, really sorry if there any mistakes or huge ones. But if not then thank you to everyone with positive reviews, also I just wanted to let everyone reading this know that after Predators I'll be working on a horror film, I can't reveal what it's about, but I can tell you what it's named, and that it's called ''Janice''. I'm not sure when I'm gonna post a trailer, maybe a teaser this month but I'm not sure when. But anyways I just wanted to tell you all that, and to make sure to leave a review, favorite, and follow and I'll see you in chapter 37. Also, thank you to all of you who are supportive to this story, I really do appreciate it. Also don't think that I'm giving in, I'm gonna finish this film and I'm not gonna let some reviews and some punks take me down, I'm stronger than that, so once again I hope you enjoy the chapter.

8:54pm…..
We see that Clarissa was done practicing as she then packs up her stuff and leaves. But she sees Reni, two guards, and someone she hasn't met before as she walks over to talk to them. She noticed that the palace had begun the celebration a bit early. But Reni realized something about when they met that she didn't get.
Reni-''Say Halima.'' She said looking over towards her.
Halima-''Yes?'' She asked.
Reni-''You asked me where you were when we first met, why did you ask if you knew where it was?'' She asked. ''Also, why did you ask who I was when you already knew?'' She also asked, also yeah I'm wondering that too.
Halima-''Oh, I just wanted to make sure since I passed by a small tribe about a hour away from your home and thought that's what your scout's were talking about.'' She said. ''Also I didn't know who you were, so that's why I asked who you were. I mean I know that you're the queen but at first I thought you were a tribe member who helped me.'' She said.
Reni-''Oh okay, thanks for explaining.'' She said as she saw her mom coming over to then, but looked over and saw Halima looked a bit worried. ''Halima, you have nothing to worry about. My mom's a very sweet woman, besides I already talked about you. You'll be fine, okay?'' She said.
Halima-''Okay, thank you Reni.'' She said feeling better as they all were close.
Reni-''Hey Mom, you finished already? It's only been 30 minutes.'' She asked her.
Clarissa-''I know but, I decided to come back a bit earlier since you may be gone for a little, also who is this with you?'' She asked.
Reni-''This is Halima, sorry I forgot to tell you her name but she's the one I talked about who's our guess.'' She said.
Clarissa-''It's a pleasure to meet you Halima, My name is Clarissa, My daughter's second in command. Reni has told me that your mom is on the other side of the river right?'' She asked as Halima nodded. ''Oh, if I may ask, why isn't your mom with you?'' She asked as she explained why and how she got here. ''Oh, I'm sorry about your mom, I can have some healers take a look at your mom if that's okay.'' She said.
Halima-''Yes ma'am, thank you.'' She said.
Clarissa-''It's no problem, also you don't have to call me ma'am, It sounds as if I'm old.'' She said smiling a little. ''You can call me Clarissa if you want.'' She said.
Halima-''Oh, okay then Clarissa.'' She said as Clarissa looked over to the sun and saw that it was nearly gone and that it was getting a bit cold out.
Clarissa-''You all should hurry, it's starting to get cold out.'' She said talking about Halima and the guards that Reni brought with her.
Reni-''Alright, Halima, how long did it take for you to get here from the other side?'' She asked.
Halima-''About 4 hours, why?'' She asked.
Reni-''Okay, (Sigh)..That'll take a while. Wait here.'' She said as she went up to the water and kneeled down in it and placed her hands in it as far from each other as she could and created a wall of fire to make a path way all the way to the other side of the river and made sure that it would hold for as long as she needed it too. As Reni got up and walked over to the others she saw how shocked Halima was. ''Oh yeah, I forgot to talk to you about this. I'll explain while we get there…..Halima?'' She asked looking back for she was just a bit shocked but snapped out of it as they walked through the path Reni made as she explained that she had these powers and everything. I'm sure you all would really, really like to hear that story. ''Again, sorry for not telling you about my abilities I would say, but I'll tell your mom about my powers when she's healed. I don't want her to be shocked and or confused while she's trying to get better.'' She said as she looked back at Clarissa and went up to her. ''You wanna come with us? I can ask Asha if she can look over the palace.'' She said.
Clarissa-''I can't, Asha will probably be busy watching over the celebration, I wish I could though. But I know you'll all be fine, just get back as soon as you can alright?'' She said as Reni nodded. ''Alright, love you Reni.'' She said hugging her.
Reni-''Love you too mom, also if you come across Taylor, Rora, and or Gafoja, can you tell them that Halima and I will take a little while.'' She asked.
Clarissa-''I will, take care.'' She said as they left and Clarissa got her stuff and got back on her way to the palace for she saw colorful smoke from the palace meaning they just started. We go back to Reni and the others as Halima ask questions about Reni's powers.
Halima-''So, do you know how you got your powers?'' She asked.
Reni-''My mom says that I got them from my father, she also said that he told her that he was given this ability when he was a calf.'' She said.
Halima-''O-Okay, so umm, when did you find out you had this gift?'' She asked.
Reni-''Well, When I was 11 months old, Jay, my mom and I went to the beach one day to relax and have fun. Then when it was getting a bit cold, they decided to say out for a little while and tried to start a camp fire. Jay couldn't since most of the sticks and rocks were wet and then when I thought about lighting it, fire came from my hands and that I wasn't scared for some reason since it didn't hurt me at all. I then went up to the pile of wood and placed my hands there and in an instant, I started a fire. I looked over to see my mom was shocked by this and so was Jay.'' She explained and realized. ''Oh, Jay is a friend of my mom; they met about a month before I was born and are still friends. She asked me if I could do it again and I did but I only had fire in my left hand. After that, I began practicing my powers with her, since she knew about my father's ability's; she wanted to see if I had the same powers. But I didn't, she said that mine seemed more powerful than his; I mean I had some things like fireballs, and shooting flames from my hands. But she never seen him do what I just did, create a path way through water, I mean he tried it but couldn't, she even told me that when he was older he still couldn't do what I did, and yet I did this with ease.'' She said. ''I can also form fire out of nowhere and instantly start a fire without me touching the firewood. As the years went on, I finally had full control over my powers when I was 10.'' She explained.
Halima-''That's amazing, but did you find this power scary sometimes?'' She asked.
Reni-''To be honest with you, no. It was fun learning how to use my powers, especially with my mom's help, including Asha, Jay, and some of my friends.'' She said.
Halima-''Were people, afraid of your powers? I mean if they know about them.'' She said.
Reni-''Surprisingly, no. I guess since my father had powers, he showed them that he wasn't a threat and that I showed them too but they weren't scared but curious.'' She said answering both questions. ''Do you have any other questions to ask?'' She asked as Halima thought about it, also if you're reading this viewer (Which you probably are, or aren't) If you have any questions about Reni's powers just ask in your reviews or PM me.
Halima-''No, I don't wanna annoy you with questions or be a bother.'' She said for Reni was taken aback for she didn't want Halima to think like that.
Reni-''Halima, I'm the one that didn't tell you about my powers, plus it's good for me to talk to someone about this other than people already know. Also please don't think that you're a bother, I really do enjoy your company.'' She said.
Halima-''Really?'' She asked as Reni nodded. ''Thank you, but yeah I don't have any more questions at the moment.'' She said as they kept going for about three more minutes until they were on the other side. ''Okay just follow me, I know where we were last.'' She said as they followed her. The night sky was beginning to show a little bit as they kept going through the forest. The guards that were with them were looking around in case of any predators but stayed close to Reni and Halima.
Back in Kilimanjaro…..
We see that the guards that were send to the Mala tribe made it back to the tribe a bit tired for they asked where Sahadev was and that they were told that he was in his house as they went over and knocked on the door.
''Come in.''
They go inside to see three Gazelle's asleep on coaches while Sahadev was about to leave to go out and train by himself again. He then saw the guards that he sent as he then opened the door and carefully closed it as he walked over to some guards.
Sahadev-''It's good to see you guys, so, anything activity at the Mala tribe?'' he asked.
Guard 1-''No, they said that they didn't see any humans near their tribe.'' He said. ''But they did say that they would be on the lookout for any of them.'' He said.
Sahadev-''Thank you, you all should get some rest. I'm giving you three four days off, use your time well.'' He said as they thanked him and left. He then went back inside and walked over to Gahi and lightly shook him as he woke up.
Gahi-''(Groans)…(Yawns), Y-yeah Sahadev?'' He asked tired as he got up.
Sahadev-''I'm going out for a little bit, if anyone ask where I am, just tell them that I'm out training, okay?'' He asked as Gahi nodded. ''Alright, thanks and goodnight.'' He said as he walked out with a bow and a couple of arrows, while he was walking he decided to check up on Rehzi for he felt like he hasn't talked to him in a little while as he went over to his tent, he sees him talking to Ani and decided not to interrupt them and left without them knowing he was there. He then left the tribe as he sees AD coming back from checking on Snake. ''Hey AD, so how's your friend?'' He asked.
AD-''She's alright, she managed to fix the radio and now all she needs to do is find a channel to contact.'' He said. ''Also where's Rehzi? I wanted to ask if he could teach me how to use a bow like you guys.'' He said. ''Also her name is Snake.'' He said.
Sahadev-''Oh well, he's having a conversation with Ani. But if you want, I could teach you.'' He offered. ''Also thanks for telling me.'' He said.
AD-''You sure? I mean I don't wanna be bothering you if you're busy with something.'' He said.
Sahadev-''I'm not busy with any, but if you prefer Rehzi, then it's alright. Oh I forgot, do you have any questions for me? Or questions that Rehzi said that he couldn't answer?'' He asked as they walked back into the tribe.
AD-''Yeah, do you know where these crystals come from?'' He asked. ''Also, I forgot to give him this special map of Africa that you two gave me.'' He said showing it only a little so that nobody saw that he had it.
Sahadev-''Well, tribes all over Africa have been finding them in caves, from underground, and a few other places years ago. But nowadays they're rare to find at random. On that map that Rehzi gave you, it should have the locations on there. Also I'm curious but, what did Rehzi tell you that I didn't?'' He asked as AD tells him everything that Rehzi answered/couldn't answer. ''Oh okay, oh I see Ani leaving, we can go talk to him now.'' He said as they both went to Rehzi's tent, as they went in they saw that he was getting ready to go to bed until he saw them.
Rehzi-''Hey Saha, hey AD.'' He said with a small smile as they said 'Hi' back to him.
AD-''Say Rehzi, Here's the map you gave me. It turns out that I didn't need it with me, but thank you both for trusting me with it.'' He said giving it to Rehzi.
Rehzi-''Thanks, I'll put it back later.'' He said as he folded it up and placed it on the table that was next to him.
Sahadev-''Also Rehzi, I just got word from some guards I sent to the Mala tribe. They said that they didn't see any humans nearby but said that they'd be on the lookout if anything happens.'' He said.
Rehzi-''Oh okay, also what about the Abaya Scouts?'' He asked.
Sahadev-''They wanted to walk around and get to know some or most of the tribe, they didn't quite get to meet most of the tribe due to it being very hot today and that most were really busy today with saving the vegetables, fruits, plants and other things. Luckily nothing bad happened, but other than that they're enjoying their time here.'' He said.
AD-''So, are they staying here?'' He asked.
Sahadev-''Oh yeah I forgot to tell you that Gahi, Abiona, and Patch were here to ask if there tribe could stay here temporarily since some humans were getting a bit close to them. I said that they could, but I need to talk to my father about this and see what he says when he gets back.'' He said.
AD-''Oh I know, while I was with them earlier we talked and I asked why they were here and they told me. But thanks though.'' He said as he saw something on Rehzi's desk and saw a bag and opened it to see some sort of rocks that felt sooth but were as hard as rocks and were a mix of light blue and diamond. ''Hey Rehzi.'' He said.
Rehzi-''Yeah AD?'' He asked as he saw that he had the rocks.
AD-''What are these rocks for?'' He asked.
Rehzi-''Oh, those are special stones that can help make water drinkable.'' He said.
AD-''Oh, but I thought that you could drink any water like in lakes and rivers.'' He said.
Sahadev-''Well, we can but that water is for when we need to heal someone in serious health conditions.'' He said for AD then thought about the whole practice thing and decided on something.
AD-''Hey Rehzi.'' He said.
Rehzi-''Yes?'' He asked.
AD-''I was wondering if you and Sahadev could teach me how to use a bow like you guys.'' He asked him for this surprised Sahadev.
Rehzi-''Of course, I mean if he wants to help he can.'' He said.
Sahadev-''Sure, I'd be willing to help ya.'' He said.
Rehzi-''Yeah, also I was actually planning on asking you when you wanted to learn. You know since you picked me and all.'' He said for AD wondered how he k- ''Ajala told me earlier today.'' He said, Oh thanks Rehzi, they then left as Rehzi got a couple of his arrows from the basket before he left, but Sahadev then went to the weapons department to get AD a bow as he then came across Nanda who was with Kacey.
Sahadev-''Hey guys, have you seen Wai?'' He asked them as Nanda answered. as she nodded.
Nanda-''Yeah, he's inside the weapons department, why?'' She asked.
Sahadev-''I need to get a bow for AD so he can learn how to use one.'' He said.
Kacey-''Oh well, talk to you later.'' She said as the three left as he then knocked on the door.
''Who is it?''
Sahadev-''Sahadev, I need to talk to you for just a second.'' He said as the door opened to see Wai, he had light dark brown fur, blue eyes, grey hair, 4 claw marks on the side of his head, symbols on his right leg, short horns, and a short brown tail.
Wai-''Anything you need sir?'' He asked.
Sahadev-''Yes, I need a bow for AD to use for practice. Also I'm gonna need my bow too.'' He said as Wai went to look and found a new bow that AD could use, and got his bow that had a stealth design to it. ''Thanks, also how long are you gonna be here?'' He asked.
Wai-''Probably an hour or two, why?'' He asked.
Sahadev-''I'm gonna return them when I'm done with them.'' He said. ''Again thanks.'' He said. ''Also, you can just call me Sahadev it you want.'' He said.
Wai-''No problem kid.'' He said as he closed the door as Sahadev got back to see Rehzi and AD talking as he made it back. He also saw that Rehzi got his bow and got out a few arrows and begun training.
