Yara took a necklace from her pocket and put it on John's neck.
“I can't stay with you any longer, my presence will put you in danger.
This necklace has a part of my magic Which that it will protect you, please don't let them find out about it, keep it well John "
Yara whispered, she embraced John, who began to restore his appearance, and then quickly she stood up.
Yara left John lying near a large tree.
When John woke up, he could not find Yara anywhere. He saw the dead man's body a few meters away from him. There were bloodstains on his torn shirt, he was very worried that Yara had hurt herself. He ran faster in the woods without a specific destination, he did not feel the time, counted hours past and no trace for Yara, John sat to regained what happened to him before he lost consciousness. He tried a lot to remember but to no avail, he noticed that there was a blue necklace with him.
" Yara!
How stupid you are?
you will die alone!
You don't know that most of the participants came to satisfy their desire to kill, from what century is this girl!"
John said angrily.
He got up looking around, put his hand on his waist. He was heading towards the northwest.
"Well, if I were Yara, where would I go?
hey!
I forgot she doesn't even think, so I'll copy her,
I never expected you to get me to this point, Yara!"
John whispered.
John moved toward the southwest, toward a source of noise, thinking that Yara would be there.
John stopped at a safe distance from an ongoing dispute.
"I saw the girl first!
Timur, do you hear me?
She will be mine."
A man who was one meter tall cried,
"No, Tom, you won't get her."
Timur said as he hit Tom with a stick on his head.
Yara was dumped by Tom, she was unconscious.
Timur and Tom were just two dwarves fighting over a beautiful lady that did not belong to them, John came out of his place and pointed his gun at them
"Oh, two boys!
That girl is mine!
Give me the girl, or else I will kill you and leave no trace of you both!"
John cried in a terrified voice.
Tom moved towards Yara and Timur came forward to attack John,
"We won't let you take her, you won't get a double reward because of her."
Tom said.
He was carrying his stick that turned every inch of it into a grenade launcher, Timur started throwing his bombs randomly and they exploded leaving fires in the parts of the place, but John managed to escape from them every time. John stood behind Tom, who didn't realize when all this had happened.
John hit him on his neck till he was above fainting, John carried Yara and moved away from their place.
He was running with her through the forests until he reached a stream of the river.
Yara woke up, John put her down
"You i***t, why do you follow me?
you will die like this, they all want to kill me, you will be killed with me."
Yara cried out.
"What part of a sentence we are a team did you not understand, the team does not abandon one of its members, sacrifices itself for the safety of the other, and if you do not know me, I am John Khalid and no one is able to defeat me, luck is with me."
John said proudly and confidently
"You don't understand the nature of the situation here."
Yara whispered then she wiped her tears. She grabbed John's hand to stand up.
"How much time is left for the transition, we have to get out from this place quickly"
John said. While he was holding her hand tightly.
"Ten seconds, but if they see us useing the river for transportation,they will reveal our secret to everyone. I'd rather put myself in danger than destroy my clan."
She said sadly. She stared at John for a long time. Suddenly
John grabbed her hand and ran her toward a mass of thick bushes where they hid.
"Calm someone down"
John whispered
Only three minutes passed when a huge number of men appeared, wanting to cross the river.
When some men entered the river. Their bodies turned to bones. They became skeletons in the blink of an eye. The rest of the men got scared and fled from the river back to the forest. The sight of their bodies burning and melting was very frightening.
"I want an explanation of what had happened, Yara!"
John said softly
" OK!
The river is cursed, John, when the five minutes left to move no one is allowed to cross the river or approach it, except those who have a portion of the blue gem energy, or else their fate will be as you saw it before you.”
She said sadly.
"These Westerners were not able to know the reason behind this strange phenomenon as they call it, the legend says that one of the inhabitants of the sky admired a mermaid from the people of the earth, both of their societies rejected the nature of the relationship between them, so the man from up skey decided to create a river to express the extent of his love for her, a river only his nymph, a river that everyone would wish to immerse in for once because of its miracles, but the man was exiled and the river was cursed, for more than centuries no one could cleanse it except my great-grandmother, she used all her powers to cleanse the river, it was their only means of survival, but one mistake Only one of them made this river with these qualities.”
Yara said in a sad voice
"I didn't ask you about your ancestors' history, let's move on, let's get out here."
John said as he stood up watching his surroundings.
