THE ROD OF COMMAND

DRAGON ARROW

As soon as the little Ebres saw the man, she used her power to save him. She stretched her left hand and a bright light went straight to the man struggling to swim out of the powerful erosion, and just like a magnet, the man was lifted up from the deadly erosion.

Still battling with the disaster, and the wind storm blew a big tall power pole, and it was about to fall down to the survivors building, people about seventy five ran and hid themselves in the building because at that moment the building was the only shelter left in the city. Because of the solid foundation of the building and was built on a flat rock.

The pole continue to shake and lost its standing as the windstorm as weakens the foundation of the tall pole and started falling to the direction of the survivors building, after Dehina saved a young baby girl who was floating on the water on a mattress has her mother was no were to be found, She noticed a sound of something cracking, like damaging building, raising her head she saw the tall power pole falling down.

With no time wasting, she runs and commands the power pole to fall somewhere else, by using her eyes to control it and save the lives of the survivors. Later the little Ebres continues with the old ghost saying, “is there a way you can help us stop this disaster?”

As the old ghost man was about to talk, Delmar jumped into the conversation saying, “the Rod Of Command! It is the Rod Of Command that results in this disaster, we must find a way to stop it”.

“But how do we stop it when we can not locate the Rod of command,” asked the little Ebres.

Then the old ghost man replied, “I can help”.

“How is it possible to locate the Rod Of Command in this condition?” the little Ebres asked.

Then the old witch ghost took out three antelope bones from his pocket and threw it up as it went downward, it changed to three dragon arrows, and the three arrows formed together and became one big arrow so that the old witch ghost said.

“Ride on it my prince, it will lead you to the Rod Of Command,” so Delmar clamped to the top, and rode on it as he was directed.

“Go, lead me to the Rod Of Command,” Delmar commanded.

As Dehina wanted to follow Delmar, he said, “no Dehina, you do not need to come with me, stay with the little Ebres and the old man, stay with the people here and save as many as possible, I know the disaster will soon stop because it has limited time”.

So Delmar rides on the dragon arrow and it flies away to search out for the hidden place of the Rod Of Command. He was still riding on the dragon arrow when he heard some strange sound from the cloud behind him.

It sounded as if the clouds were roaring, and when he looked back, he saw two demons called the demons of the cloud and each one was without a head.

The two demons of the cloud were sent by the evil Vigora to put on a show to make the search of the Rod Of Command so fast. They kept following Delmar but did not start any fight with him yet as they were withdrawing back little by little, but Delmar did not mind them and kept moving on since they did not make any move to attack him.

He did not know where he was going but the dragon arrow was the seeker leading him. “Move very fast, there is not much time,” he said. And the dragon arrow added to his speed.

The two demons of the cloud as they withdrew, returned back to the evil Vigora to deliver their message but they never left the cloud as they speak in an echo sound from the cloud saying, “Vigora, Vigora, the Rod Of Command will soon be yours, so hurry! And meet up to challenge him and get the Rod Of Command”.

The evil Vigora has been monitoring all the movement of Delmar if he would make any attempt to find the Rod of command, because he himself can not locate it but only Delmar could, and he has to wait and watch Delmar for the right time after the last battled with him in the strange forest of the secret place. And the disappearance of the Rod Of Command was due to his reckless fight and ambitions.

So he gathered some of his messengers and send them to secretly watch when Delmar will find the Rod Of Command, so that they will distract him before he will arrive, the leader of the evil messengers of Vigora meet up with the demons of the cloud, he asked them to lead him to Delmar just as the evil Vigora as commanded.

So they all obeyed him because they are all subjective to him since he is well known to be famous, powerful and clever among the spirits of the immortal.

Still, Delmar never knew where he was heading to, but the dragon arrow did because the dragon arrow was leading him to the Rod Of Command. When the dragon arrow gets to a place near a cave, the dragon arrow slowly flies downward and stops.

After landing, Delmar gets down and the dragon arrow vanishes until he needs it's help again, so he suspects he has near the location of the Rod Of Command but was confused which direction to go.

He was looking at a cave from afar, one road at the left leading to the black bamboo trees that all its leaves had dried up, another road at the right leading to the cave called the shadow cave, the cave he was already looking at from afar.

So he took the road leading to the shadow cave, as he picked his fifth footsteps, the leaves rope hold his legs so that he may not go further, but he forced himself and lifted up his foot and moved forward to the shadow cave, as Delmar arrive, the shadow cave was widely open for him to enter, but he felt strange inside of him, but summon up his courage and entered in since nothing can shake him without destroying the thing.
