Chapter 13: The Young Cheetah
"So the quicker I obtain the scroll..." Chase said.
"The quicker Balsac will resurrect Melissa." Kepron told him. The two were hiding in the bushes on the outskirt of the temple.
"This brings back memories..." Chase muttered outloud. Kepron didn't hear it he was too busy doing the master's work.
"You know I kill you eventually, so why are you so... normal around me"
Chase asked Kepron.
"I live for the master, he saved me and I must sacrifice myself to bring you to the Heylin side." Kepron responded.
"I could kill you now I avoid this whole mess." Chase told him his idea.
"Then Balsac will take my place, and you do not possess the might to stop the originater of Heylin." Kepron told Chase straight in his face.
"Enough pointless chatter. I'll take a head on approach to this situation"
Chase responded to Kepron still face-to-face. Chase flipped over the bushes walking like any person you would pass on the street and not take any notice from. Such a simple tack, walk like any casual person straight into the scroll room and walk out.
(Brief Chase POV)
Also come to think of it I was never approached by anyone accusing me of stealing anything back then, so I must have gotten away with it.
(End Chase POV)
Omi isn't the only one with cheetah instinct and skills a highly trained, superior martial arts expert like Chase could easily sneak into a cruddy building being guarded by eight kids. Stealthing near the side of the building Chase saw nothing just another clear night sky. Kicking in his cheetah instincts he made a mad dash for the scroll room, then tripped. After he got up he made his second mad dash for the scroll room!
Cheetah is a feline after all and cats are known for there quiet, sneaky entrances for Chase this was just the same.
"Cheetah Strike!" A voice came from above, it was Omi. Chase easily blocked him with his wrist plate.
"What are you doing?" Chase asked him, trying to make it look believable.
"What are YOU doing Chase Spicer!" Omi said. Both exchange long meaningless looks.
"I mean Chase Young! Sorry I'm use to Spicer..." Omi explained himself.
"I can not come here? Since when?" Chase responded calmly, trying not to give himself away.
"Do not try to make me seem 'off the baby rocker'." Omi said pointing at him.
"Hu?" Chase responded.
"Umm... Clay isn't around so I guess no one can translate it." Omi said blushing.
"Anyway what are you doing here?" Omi said once again in his attack voice.
"I've been having troubles sleeping, I keep dreaming my love Melissa"
Chase's voice suddenly was filled with angrier.
"She died from protecting me!" Chase said cleared his throat.
"So I came down here to find an herbal recipe to clear this bad karma." Chase said grinning behind his face.
"Then let me make sure you get that recipe." Omi said giving Chase the I'm-watching-you eye. Chase had to make sure he finds the scroll with the information on the "Sword of Gatherings" before Omi finds that herbal remedy, if there is such a thing. For Melissa, Chase could not take such a risk.
First Scroll... Falconry For Dummies.
Second Scroll... How to Cook Crabcakes
Third Scroll... Everything and More you Need to Know About Fishing
Fourth Scroll... Story of Kepron
Chase opens and reads what the fourth one holds.
Kepron was once a noble shaman who would guide beast spirits to there afterlife.
But when a plague corrupted a gudiance ritual one night, his heart was tainted.
Running into the wild to slaughter any animal he came apon he nearly ran off a cliff.
At that point a wild hermit named Balsac (Who names there kid... 'Balsac' anyway?)
saved his life. Kepron contact a few members of his tribe about his story and something
he called 'the path of the Heylin'.

There long enough... Also since I use notepad I think a lot of periods somehow get lost along with the transfering. So... umm... yea...
