Something kept telling me to continue so, I guess I will
Once again, he'd lost it was usual for him to face defeat, Gengen was better than him.
"You were off, by a lot" Gengen commented, holding a hand out to help Gabocha up, Gabocha accepted the hand "Yeah I know" he said
"Something's troubling you isn't it" Gengen asked, once again Gengen knew when something was wrong. "I'm just…tired of following in your shadow" Gabocha replied bitterly
Gengen was inquisitive about this "Following in my sha-" Before Gengen could finish Gabocha took off running "Wait, Gabocha!" Gengen shouted, but he was too far way "This is what I get for trying to help" Gengen thought, while kicking up dirt on the ground.
He didn't care where he went, he just wanted to get away he finally settled down a bit, The Two-River Kobold District wasn't massive, but it was quite big, so he knew there were places where he could get away easily
It soon started to rain.
Gabocha was confused on where to go, but suddenly someone put an umbrella over him, Gabocha looked beside him, it wasn't Gengen who was helping him, it was his cousin Boris.
"You alright Gabocha?" Boris asked, Boris could tell something was wrong, he was usually following Gengen but this time he was alone.
"I-I just" Gabocha began, but he soon started to cry. "H-Hey, everything will be alright, come with me, and I'll see what I can do to help, don't cry" Boris said, trying to comfort his sad cousin
Boris had begun to walk with Gabocha holding his hand, soon they came to a mansion-like house, there were about 7 floors, He and Gabocha entered the house, Gabocha had begun to hiccup
Warmth quickly welcomed the two, they had come to a foyer-like room carpet of different colors and designs, lights and brightness were about everywhere, Boris had gotten Gabocha to sit down, telling him he would be right back.
Gabocha quickly recognized this house, he'd been here before time after time, but he couldn't remember when. Thumping from upstairs had descended down them, and Gabocha had come face-to-face with a brown Kobold covered in a black robe.
"Uncle Ridley?" Gabocha choked "Gabocha? Is that you?" Ridley asked.
Gabocha nodded
Before he could react or say anything, he was locked in a tight embrace "How long has it been 2 years?" Ridley asked "I think…so" Gabocha replied. "How've you been?" Ridley asked "A-Alright, could you let go Uncle Ridley, you're squeezing me too tightly!" Gabocha stammered
Ridley quickly let go of his nephew
Boris soon suddenly appeared, carrying Hot Chocolate, and a cookie and handed it to Gabocha. "Now, tell me what's wrong" Boris asked "Something wrong?" Ridley asked his son "I found Gabocha outside in the rain father" Boris responded
"I..want..to be a hero" Gabocha whispered, however the two in front of him couldn't understand him "Say that again" Boris said "I want to go on an adventure, I want to go out and see the world, and more importantly, I want to be a Hero." Gabocha whispered louder.
The two clearly understood what Gabocha said.
"Then you must leave Two River" Ridley responded
"You must go out and find out where and what you want to do with yourself" Ridley answered
"Then I will go!" Gabocha responded confidently
This was going to be his own adventure, he was going to go out and do something and be a hero, he just knew it.
