The Eternal Light
It's been about a month since I last updated and let me tell you it's good to be back! It's been a terrible month. I've been sick, I've had so many reports to do and things have just been extremely crazy. Anyway I did manage to put up the first chapter of my original story Ramen Noodles on fictionpress.com. Thank you all who read and reviewed my work.
Chapter 6: Maxi's Return
After our heroes found a new ally in Siegfried they went straight for the coast. Captain after captain rejected their request to go to France.
"How hopeless" Sueng Mina sighed
They continued to look for a ship when they came upon a grand vessel.
"This ship looks so familiar" Said Kilik. He knew he'd seen it before and then it him. But no it couldn't be he had to accept his friend was gone, he had to.
"Kilik you don't think." Xianghua said
"No couldn't be."
"We didn't think Nightmare was alive but he is, maybe."
"No Maxi is dead, live with it."
"You shouldn't be so mean."
"Sorry Xianghua I didn't mean to sound cruel. I just didn't want to…"
"It's okay I'm sure Maxi's in a better place"
"Hey who called me?" They turned to see a young man wearing a white vest and pants with gold trimming and a blue sash. His thick eyebrows in a curious expression his black hair blowing in the wind dark eyes focused on the group of warriors.
"Speak of the devil. How are you here, alive?!" Xianghua exclaimed
"What do you mean? Are you guys lost or something? Crazy maybe?" He raised an eyebrow
"Maxi how did you survive?"
"Do I know you people?"
"Where your friends"
"So this is why you're not supposed to talk to strangers. Look I don't know you and I'm not sure if you people are sane but there is only one reason there are so many warriors traveling together."
"If you don't know us how do you know we're warriors?"
"Don't be stupid lady. Only warriors carry swords and like I was saying a group of warriors can only be looking for Soul Edge."
"Wait you don't remember us but you remember Soul Edge?" Kilik interjected
"Actually I'm not exactly after the sword more for revenge. My crew was slaughtered by the golem…"
"Astoroth."
"Okay you guys are some strange characters, my kind of people. Okay where do you want to go?"
"France" Raphael said interrupting the back and forth conversation between the old friends.
"Okay get on board were leaving right away."
"Pushy aren't we."
They all went upon the vessel.
"Hey, help yourselves to any room on the rear of the boat. I've got business to take care of kiddies. See you at dinner." Maxi left them
"I can't believe this, he doesn't remember us. Kilik what are we going to do." Xianghua said her eyes getting teary
"Nothing just leave him alone. He might not remember us but if we continue to scare him we won't be able to make friends with him now."
"I guess your right. We should focus on Soul Edge now"
"Right, come now before we get stuck with the worst rooms."
"Kilik"
"Yes Xianghua"
"You think in the end this will all be worth the pain?"
"I'm sure of it now don't sit there and sulk come on" Kilik was sure things would only get harder Xianghua was too strong willed and head strong to truly take his advice. She'd say yes and agree with everything just to do it her way anyway and he loved that about her. So many things have happened since they started their second Journey for Soul Edge. They've met so many people some not from this world even! People have come back from what they thought was the dead and now he's traveling with them all. All of this was so crazy. What was in store for him he wondered? All this thoughts raced trough his head as he went on a search for a room. This was it, no turning back. All or Nothing Soul Edge will have to be destroyed and together they had to do it their soul were connected he knew that now for certain. "So far it's been smooth sailing now comes the hard stuff" He whispered to himself and found a room to sleep in. Tomorrow will be a new day and there are sure to be more twist in this quest whatever they were he'd be ready.
End of chapter 6
Okay so this chapter focused mainly on the relationship between Xianghua, Kilik and Maxi. In the future there will be more chapters that focus on a certain character or characters so if you feel someone isn't really shown much in the story their chance in the spotlight is coming up. As always Read and Review. Read Ramen Noodles. Thank you and good bye.
