AC: Here's the newest chapter.
I'll invent the method which a year passes in this story.
Second, minute, hour remain the same. They import it from the humans.
Day (24 hours) = Solar flow.
Week (7 days): Celeste moon.
Month and season is the same (91 days):
Spring = Floral season
Summer = Flame season
Fall = Colorful season
Winter = White season
4 seasons = 1 planetary flow
Planetary flow begins since existence of the creatures.

Chapter 3: Everything I can to skip training

Odu-Bathax POV:
It was the time for training and I was watching to the solders I've train this generation of soldiers for years. Even if I'll never tell them what I thought about them, I was proud of them. When I first meet them, when they were ready to train, they were just coward who didn't know how to fight and endure pain. Today…even if their still not ready for war, they were proud and courageous warrior like me…except not as powerful to me but I can't demand the impossible. Their intensive training was over and their duty will begin soon.
On another subject, 4 years ago, humans were adding to the hive. It was really weird for us, but the queen made the decision because she didn't want to let all the other tribes took average against us. It weren't a bad idea even before their power appears. Most of them were young and inexperienced about life. Lore, which was a little curious, asks them about their knowledge and sees what they knew. The older ones explain what they knew about their past and their abilities they've develop during their past life.
I learn they can do lots of things and also that all of them live in the inferior part of Mount Pillar. They participate in the market and repairs or construct high quality equipment and Battlegear for us. It gives us more solders to fight and guard Mount Pillar. Some of them were doctors, nurses or scientists…more intellectual humans and help us in their domain. As for the young one, most of them chose to follow where the humans participate in the hive activities with the other humans but some of them decide to be soldiers… exactly 10 of them…and I have to train them. They were weaker, smaller and slower than us so I thought to kick them out of this job when I saw them overpower mandiblors with non…usual methods. When I ask them, they knew their own weak points so they focus on the mandiblors weak points and since I didn't train them to hide it…humans just exploit it. I never realise their strength until then…they were smarter, adaptive to any situation and more creative than most of our tribe. Today, 4 years later, they change a lot, they are strong as any mandiblors, smart, courageous but not as solid as us but they don't have exoskeleton so it's understandable but, they compensate it with their agility. I was proud of them too. In different test I saw that the strongest of this group was: Sarah, a human girl. It was rather impressive for the other danian but not for me…I already see Wamma true strength…which invisible because he's clumsy, not a hard working danian who just want to chill out, but when he's mad…super rare, he's a fierce warrior.
Enough thought right now, it was time for my speech.
"Alright recruits." When I say that, all of them were silent and looking at me. "Your intense training is over." They all give a sigh of relief. I smirk a little. "But…You will keep training while after or before you perform you duty as guard. Another good news…you are guarding the north gate under my command."
I saw their scare face…They fear me that's for sure…well for most of them, others appear unfazed by their assignment like that human girl Sarah. She looks at me and her eyes told me «bring it on». I smile at her reaction…things will be…interesting.

There were performing their duty admirably. I think I train a formidable group of warrior…unless they didn't want to be overpowered by the humans, who will humiliate them…anyway, they work hard.
I perform my duty until I saw something was missing…Wamma again. I saw Sarah walking fast with a fury look on her eyes, she was walking to a possible hiding spot of Wamma…Better let him face her fury and not mine. She's way worse than me…only for Wamma of course.
"Odu-Bathax." Call someone. I turn around and I saw Elhaad.
"What is it?" I ask.
"I finally complete my scouting mission and this document must be send to Ekuud. Then Ekuud must pass it to our queen." He says.
"Why is that?" I ask.
"It a very important mission and it must not fall on the enemy hands…I believe I was observed and you must proceed with caution."
"We are in Mont Pillar so-" I have an evil idea. Honestly I wasn't worried something will turn bad so I decide to follow it. "Alright, I shall give the document to a trustworthy danian and he will give it to Ekuud."
"…Alright." He says hesitantly. He thinks something might turn bad…ridiculous. He then walks away.
"!" It was Wamma shouting in pain in a distance place…Looks like he will be here soon.

3rd POV:
Wamma was hiding in a blind spot under Mont Pillar. The corridor which he was using for hide was big enough to hide him and was small enough not to be see if they are searching him. Wamma, hidden, was sleeping, unaware of a fury beast moving closer to him. The fury beast saw him hiding where it thought he will be and sees he was sleeping. After 10 seconds the beast attacks. The beast squash Wamma feet where it is very sensible. Wamma immediately awaken and shout:
"!" with great pain.
"Finally awake." The beast says.
Wamma looks at the beast and he immediately recognises it.
"Sarah!" Says Wamma. He knew he was in trouble…whatever the reason was. "Why are you…angry at me?"
"You say you have something important to tell me during our duty and I was WAITING for you during 2 hours until I knew you forgot."
"Oh…that!" Says Wamma when BLAM.
"Ouch." Says Wamma. This time he was ready so it was less painful when Sarah smashed his head.
"JUST A THAT!" She says.
"SORRY!" Wamma yell. "Wrong choice of words."
"*Sign.*…That definitely your style. Each time I search you…you are eating or sleeping discreetly." Says Sarah calmer. "So what do you want to talk to me about?"
"I say that…I wanted to give you something." Says Wamma.
"Then why…You knew you would forget so you say something that will less anger me." She says understanding Wamma thought.
"Yes-" BANG. She hit his head again. "Do you really need to hit me again?" Ask Wamma a little upset.
"No…I just want it." She answers.
Wamma smile at her. "Since you duty has begun…I wanted you to have this." He took something out of his bad…It was a necklace. "It's your broken necklace…you know when you came here, it was already broken so I took it and repair it."
"I thought I lost it…wait you repair it?"
"Yes?" Not understanding why she looks at him with disbelief.
"You?"
"Yes!" He was a little annoyed.
"Really?"
"Is it so hard to believe this?" Wamma asks.
"Knowing you yes…I thought I lost it…Well…Since it was you…4 years was understandable to repair it…you must have break it too during the repairs…Thank you…It's the last momento of my parents." She says with a smile and Wamma also smile. "It time to return to our duty…Odu knows your sleeping during the job again." She says more seriously. Wamma lost his smile.
"*Sigh.* Alright I'm coming." Wamma says in defeat.
11h45
Odu-Bathax POV:
I finally see Wamma and Sarah coming back. I also see Wamma isn't walking like usual. Sarah must squish his feet…again.
"Wamma, just the danian I want to see." I say. Wamma just tremble a little. He thinks of the punishment I have for him. "I need you to accomplish an important yet simple mission, fail me and you shall work really really really hard for 3 planetary flows, succeed and I'll forgive this little absent of yours." I say with an evil smile. Wamma gulps but he answers:
"Well, what is the mission?"
"You just need to take that document and bring them to Ekuud." I say.
Wamma was a little mad at me…because he hates Ekuud. I harden my eyes when I look at him and he answers in defeat:
"As you wish."
I give him the document and he walk away.
"Good luck." Says Sarah. When Wamma was out of the room she says to me: "You will be in trouble."
"Of course not. He can do this." I say. After this Sarah returns to her duty.
I give him a really simple mission. What can go wrong?
12h00
3rd POV:
Wamma is walking through the corridor to fulfill this mission when an idea struck him. Why won't he continue his nap before ending his mission? After all Odu-Bathax didn't give him a time line. He puts the document in his bad he always has on him…Then he found a hiding spot and took his nap.
Wamma didn't know he was discreetly followed by someone. When they saw him took his nap then move closer, try to find the document in his bad but they fail to obtain it. Wamma didn't react when they were touching him to find if he was hiding it somewhere else. Now frustrated, they decide to kidnap him…bad idea…they have great difficulty to carry such a big danian. After being almost spotted 3 times, they get out of Mount Pillar and were hardly moving to their destination.
What could go wrong with this easy mission? It was the Wamma factor of course.
AC: Here's the end of this chapter, review if you like it. I'm not sure what the next chapter will be so…it will be a surprise.
