Chapter 6 - He's Finally Awake…
-~~~ - Tiara -~~~-
Tiara watched as the boy slowly opened his eyes… in a split second he jumped up, snatched the spear from her hands, pushed her against the wall and held the sharp tip to her throat.
Tiara looked in fear at the boy and opened her mouth to speak.
"No… where am I?" He asked, "And where's Damin… he said he'd be here when I woke up!" The boy demanded pushing the spear closer to Tiara's neck.
"Damin… isn't here right now… he told me to watch you." Tiara said hesitantly… afraid that the words she spoke could just be her last.
"He did?" The boy loosened his grip on the spear and set it down, "Who are you?"
"I'm Tiara… Damin's tribe leader." The amazon said walking up to the boy, "I have been waiting for you to wake up… you slept all last night… what is your name?"
"The name's Aren." The boy said sitting down on the bed.
"Aren huh? So what's your story?" Tiara asked sitting in a chair, "Do you remember anything from before Damin found you?"
"A little." Aren said looking at Tiara, "I remember a… fire… I was stuck in the building…" He begun… "Someone was calling my name…"
******Flashback ******
"AREN! OH GOD! AREN!"
Aren walked fuzzily to something that looked like a wall, he placed his hand on his head where a blotch of thick blood poured from, "Ah my head." He tripped and fell to the floor, "Ah!" He looked down at his knee and watched as blood poured from an opened wound.
"All I could think of at that time was the pain… and finding whoever it was that I was looking for. All I knew was that I loved the person and that they were very important to me."
"AREN!" The voice called again.
Aren stood up and walked into another room… he walked up to something that looked like a door but couldn't reach for it and he tripped again, "Ah!"
"It was hard to see anything… but the voice didn't stop calling… I'm not sure but I think I knew who it was."
"NO! LET ME GO! AREN! HE'S STILL IN THERE! I HAVE TO SAVE HIM! I HAVE TO GET HIM OUT OF THERE!"
Aren stood up hearing the voice calling for him, "Ju…Jaaa…" He collapsed on the ground again and closed his eyes…
"I thought I was gonna die… but I could still here the voices…"
******End of Flashback ******
"So the voice… do you know who it was?" Tiara asked sitting beside Aren.
"I… I don't remember…" The boy said holding his head in his hands.
"And how did you end up at the river?" The amazon asked looking concerned,
"I woke up and stumbled there." Aren said looking out the window.
******Flashback ******
Aren opened his eyes and looked around the room… the fire had stopped and everything lay as still as the earth under it.
"Uhh…" He stood and walked out of the building and looked around… suddenly he heard the running of water!
"A stream!" He beamed… he began to walk ahead when he heard the sound of sobs… he looked in the direction it was coming from only to see a couple of blurry figures one sitting one standing… the one sitting mumbled something that Aren didn't hear to well.
He shrugged it off and began to walk down to what looked like a forest.
******End of Flashback ******
"So you found the stream eventually?" Tiara asked walking over to the door.
"Yeah." Aren said putting his hand on his head, "I was pretty lucky that Damin was there."
"Yeah…" Tiara looked down at her people, "Damin's here." She said and Aren stood up.
"He is?" He beamed.
"Yup. HEY DAMIN!" Tiara shouted, "AREN'S AWAKE!"
Damin ran up the steps and emerged into the hut, "Ah! So he is…" He said and walked over to Aren, "Hello there."
"Hi." Aren said looking up at the tall man, "I'd like for you to take me to the city now."
"Oh no you don't… especially not in your condition." Damin said lifting up Aren's leg to look at it, "You were badly wounded, it still looks ruff." Damin said and began to take off the bandage that was wrapped tightly around Aren's leg.
"Wha?" Aren looked at Damin wide eyed and opened his mouth to speak again.
"No… don't speak… it's a waist of your energy…"
Damien smiled and looked at the wound, "Pride did well taking care of it." He said observing up and down Aren's torn jeans.
"Damin… would it be ok if… if I joined this tribe… I don't want to go back and remember what happened… who I lost that day in the fire." Aren said and looked down at his torn and burned jeans.
"Of course you can." Damin said smiling.
