Soon the light shone behind the tall walls and hit at the standing young teen that stood there with open arms and infused the energy from the morning light.Slow steps could be heard that stepped behind her. ""Are you ready? I think we should hurry.""
Kendra slowly opened her deep eyes and turned her head. ""It"s not like they can escape them. Just wait. I need to say my goodbyes to my aunt anyway.""
While she walked to visit aunt she remembered the moment everyone arrived on their clouds, ready to fight, finding a peaceful town and nothing much to fight with.
Lais was furious for missing the action and Ta.s.sio had hands full in calming her down. But after hearing about some of them being on way to Caledon Valley to hunt Elementalits for their own use, her eyes shone in delight and she jumped on her cloud to chase after them, while Ta.s.sio chased after her with a sigh.
Hela stood next to her and inhaled fresh morning air. ""Deeper in the continent where I live it"s hard to breathe so we use water vapor to survive. Since I came to this part of the continent I really have little will to go back. But after your story, I think we should rush back. Is there a way to bring air with us? It will be hard for everyone, trust me...""
Kendra nodded. ""You say the biggest Eye of the Sun was inside volcano crater that was near your living s.p.a.ce. I have met humans that can swim in lava as they have natural heat resistance, didn"t your people earn such feature after so long time?""
Hela looked at her in shock.""What... did... you... just... say?""
Kendra blinked a few times realizing how big of a shock that could mean for her. ""I met humans, that have a natural resistance to heat. One of them has even dual abilities. The funny thing, his main ability is water.""
Hela had her mouth open and couldn"t get out daze. Kendra patted her back and shook her head.
""You know, there should be a possibility that after I take away that eye the volcano might dry out and the air becomes clear. I can help you with that definitely. Hmm. Maybe I should take some seeds and plant some trees, gra.s.ses and food... Volcano earth has a good amount of different kinds of nutrients. It is possible to make it... fruitful."" Her speech became slower as the expression on Hela"s face changed.
Hela"s eyes shone while she grabbed tightly Kendra"s hands. She remembered how Lais liked to grab b.r.e.a.s.t.s and sighed in relief, she was not grown yet. Or should she be sad?
Anyway, Hela"s face came closer to Kendra"s and she quickly turned her head left and right to see if anyone is looking then she whispered. ""Can I have one?""
Kendra at first didn"t understand so she asked slowly. ""One what?""
""Of course one of those humans..."" Her eye shone still as she waited for the answer.
Now how should Kendra answer THAT? She tilted her head bit to the side as she had no idea what is Hela talking about.
""I mean, you said they have natural resistance. If I get one of those humans..."" She smiled widely...
Kendra gasped a little bit and was about to change her good impression of this girl.
""You want to eat a human?"" Her furious eyes sparkled and turned a bit orangy.
Now Hela was stupefied about Kendra"s sudden outburst. ""What are YOU talking about. when did you hear me say that I want to eat humans? I am not that savage, you know?""
Both of them had their own thoughts but none of them spoke clearly.
Hela stared at Kendra and Kendra at Hela each trying to speak without opening mouth.
The strangest thing occurred at that moment. Staring compet.i.tion x10.
Teha Ke, Miro Falis, and Babil arrived while the two of them locked their eyes at each other not even blinking. They had no idea what was that about so they just stood still and waited, and waited... and waited.
But Fluffy and Lilly felt this was strange. Why does Kendra stare at Hela in such a way? Did the two fall in love with each other?
""Uhm, Kendra do you like Hela that much?"" Fluffy couldn"t stop himself asking.
Kendra and Hela simultaneously turned their heads toward him with empty eyes and blank expression.
He stepped back in fear and then swiftly rushed to hide behind Lilly. ""I didn"t know love is so scary?""
Suddenly he could feel his head hit hard. ""Who did you say I am in love with???""
Kendra realized he seemed to misunderstand their behavior so she felt furious.
Hela stood with crossed arms and smiled at Kendra ending with a smile. ""Is that reason why you stared at me and didn"t want to give me one of the humans?""
Kendra almost blows the top and suddenly her eyes started changing. Lilly jumped into her arms and started patting her chest. ""Calm down, caaaalm down, don"t let it affect you... Breathe...""
Kendra inhaled deeply and her red eyes receded letting Hela and Fluffy sighed in relief as they thought they would get hit badly this time.
""Why... do... you... need... a human?"" Kendra started breading again and slowly asked while looking at Hela with fury.
Hela just shrugged. ""To get married, of course.""
Everyone dropped their jaws open. Kendra held her head with both hands as it was about to explode and then started laughing loudly.
After a long time, she started laughing deeply from the heart and couldn"t stop. She actually wanted to say something in between but the laughter overcame her and she started laughing again.
The King came out with Aella and stared at her while this one couldn"t stop laughing.
She pointed at Kendra and asked the people that stood around. ""What did happen to make her laugh so much?""
Lilly scratched her head and tried to explain, when she came to the end, the King started first chuckling and then laughing as well.
Now no one understood the reason the two people laughed, but after their laughter ebbed a bit and they looked at each other"s eyes, they started laughing again while tears floated down their faces.
Now Hela was completely confused. ""What is so funny?""
The King held Aella and gave her to her husband while trying to prop Kendra to stand up.
""I never saw such that you can laugh so much."" Th eKing patted her own chest while holding Kendra that wiped her tears.
Hela approached carefully as she felt kind of uncomfortable for some unknown reason.
""Now as the two of you stopped, could you please tell me what was so funny that both of you needed to even cry."" She was now truly curious.
Kendra patted her shoulder and smiled ta her. ""Sorry about that. It is actually not a big deal.""
Hela just blinked at her in confusion.
""I misunderstood you. The moment you said that you wanted to have human for yourself I had an urge to destroy you into smithereens. So while we stared at each other I tried to find ways to kill you without causing demons into a riot. But when you said you want to get married my heart felt so light that it almost flew away. Hela, please next time be clear with your sentences. I almost disintegrated you for your remark.""
She just shrugged but then turned her eyes at her. ""Is that the reason you laughe dos much?""
Kendra shook her head. ""I think after so much pressure in the last couple years and all that is going on I needed to vent my pent up energies.""
Everyone"s jaws dropped again. ""Most people vent by killing and murdering..."" Hela"s whisper could be heard and everyone nodded.
But King patted Kendra"s head. ""But this child is different. She will kill those that deserve, punish that doe bad things, but will on end feel a still bit sorry for their destruction. She never really hates, she gets angry, but this child has no real hate in her heart. So venting energy can never turn into slaughtering innocents. She would or harm herself or vent some other way. If she was older I would recommend her...""
Suddenly she could feel a hand on her mouth. Her husband hissed. ""Would you please stop..."" And stared at her with icy eyes and then she realized that as long Kendra doesn"t really grow up, she can"t make such jokes.
He took off his hand of her lips revealing a cute pout. He smiled at her dangerously and then put Aella in her hands.
""If you have so much time to talk about that, tonight we will handle your pent up energies, what do you think?"" He patted her head and turned around while his smile became bigger and bigger. Thank you Kendra for healing her completely...
