SpeaK chapter 6

Len wondered around the forest. Hmm... where am I? He thought.

He still can see the mountain, so he must still be far away. He cut through some bushes, climbed up some trees, and fell from some. He decided to climb another tree. He looked at the nearest branch that is about 2 meters away from the top of his head.

He easily jumped onto it and jumped to the next branch. He swing himself up and to another tree. After quite awhile he misjudged the distance of a branch and came tumbling got himself a face plant.

When he looked up, he saw Rin, covered in mud and blood, holding her sword in the middle of a pile of dead creatures. Rin noticed his presence and turned to look. Len was able to see a sweet smile before he said anything."umm... hey Rin. Just passing by..." Len said in a funny tone that made Rin's smile wider. " i'll go now..."

What are those creatures that Rin just killed? Too bad I didn't take a closer look. Maybe soon something is going to attack me, too.

And he was correct. He walked further into the woods, and not long after that he was ambushed by a dog. A three-headed dog, about the size of a crouching grown man.

Cerberus. Len was shocked to see the three-headed dog while he clumsily dodge the attack.

Isn't he supposed to be in the underworld? The hellhound leaped and all three of its head snapping at Len, each wanting a piece of him.

Len caught its neck to stop it from biting him but fell due to its heavy weight. The three-headed dog fell on him and Len struggle to get up. When he finally pushed it away and got up it had already prepared for another attack. Len braced himself and summoned his sword. When the beast leaped, he dodge to one side and slashed its side. The beast howled in pain but remained on its paws.

They circled each other numerous times and Len took the first move. He charged at the beast and slash its heads. One of the beast's heads was able to bite him on the arm. Len winced, but he used his sword to cut off that head. He dodged the beast's other two snapping heads and slashed another one.

One head left. He charged at the hellhound and swung his blade. It quickly dodge but Len was faster. Knowing that the beast dodged, he changed his sword's direction aiming for its neck. Only the tip of the blade hit the target, but it was enough to cut open a major artery. Len left the now one-headed dog to bleed to death, laying in the middle of the forest to be prey for other things lurking inside. If only he wasn't using the linen armor under his clothes, he would have lost an arm.

Neru is lost. She didn't know where she was, and where the mountain is. Its already dark, better find a place to sleep. She wandered around for a few more minutes before she found a tree big enough for her to sleep on. She jumped and got a hold on the lowest branch, hoist herself up and climbed until the highest branch. She lay down on the branch and looked up to the skies. Its a really beautiful night. The stars are shinning. She thought before closing her eyes.

"Oh! Water!" Teto squealed as she heard the rush of the water. True enough, just a few steps ahead are a small clearing with a crystal clear river flowing through the center. She can see through the water, seeing the very bottom of the river, which is just the depth of her own knee. She scooped up a bit of the water onto her hands and bent to drink she stopped before her lips touched to water. She just felt weird, having the urge to move exactly now. She followed her instinct and stepped back. just after she did, a really big crab shot out of the waters.

It hid under the sand. Thats why I didn't see it before. Is this what the books call Carcinus? The crab that helped the hydra when fighting Hercules? Why is it here? She summoned her sword, knowing that using water will not have any effect on the gigantic crab. The crabs gigantic claws that is as big as half of Teto swung across the clearing. Teto would have been hit if she hadn't jumped and dodged. She slashed with her blade and found that it wouldn't do anything to the crab. Not even the slightest dent or mark.

Ugh, this won't work. Slashing blindly wont do anything. Teto dodged another claw. The crab kept on swinging his claw, and Teto need to dodge every single one of those attack. Teto dodged another claw attack but what she didn't notice was another claw was already behind her, and when she dodged the first claw, she got hit by the second claw. Teto was surprised from the hit as she flew across to the other side of the river.

Looks like this crab had learned a few things. She crouch landed and took a few seconds to determine where she will hit.

The eyes! She dashed over the water and jumped.

Landing on the crabs upper part she stabbed its eyes, blinding it. Now what? It's already, but how do I kill this thing? She thought as she jumped to safety. When she landed she got a flash back when they were still in primary school.

The bell rung and the kids gather at dinning table, ready for lunch. The school's chef came out from the kitchen along with servants carrying trays of food.

Chef: todays lunch is corn soup for appetizer, whole crab with almas caviar, and macaroons with fresh made ice cream for dessert

Kids: Yay! Chef Edward's ice cream is the best!

Teto: Waaaah! Meiko! how do you eat this thing? I never eat crab before!

Meiko: Here, you do it like this. Flip the crab. *flips the crab upside down*

Teto: Okay... *flips the crab upside down messily*

Meiko: Next, you see the middle part of the crab here? *points at the middle of the crab's belly*

Teto: Yeah...

Meiko: You stab your knife there. Its the place that is the thinnest. So you can break through it. *stabswith the knife*

Teto: Ooooooh...Okaaaay... *follows Meiko, stabs the crab*
