War of Life II

The Four Paths (Final Part)

Tiing's POV

After fighting Aura Jewelblade, Tiing was walking toward the Gardens of The Dead...

"I thought this Rowachiha guy would be cool...Who the hell resides in a graveyard?" Tiing was confused,

"No matter, this world's got questionable people and he could be one of them!" Tiing thought,

"Aura better not have thrown me into a trap here..." Tiing thought afterward,

As Tiing was walking on the worn and torn path he took a turn following the sword's directions and found himself looking at a place already. It was a little further away and fog surrounded it in all corners.

"That looks like something straight out of a horror movie...It really looks like a graveyard!" Tiing thought as he was holding the sword tightly with both of his hands.

Then all of a sudden, the sword in Tiing's hands pointed up...What the sword was pointing at was an old dead tree with nothing but branches left. Tiing moved his head to look up only to see that on one of the dead branches at the very top was a person sitting. Tiing was surprised and he yelled,

"Hey, you weirdo! Come down here!" Tiing yelled but no response was heard. In sheer silence, Tiing flew up to the top of the tree to talk to whoever was up there.

"Hey, what's your deal? I told you to come down. Anyway, what the hell are you doing sitting on top of this tree?" Tiing asked,

"This should be none of your business. Leave." The man warned,

"Where is Rowachiha?"

"I am Rowachiha!" The guy spoke and drew his sword instantly.

"Where did you get that sword?!" The sword in Tiing's hands caught Rowachiha's attention...

Tiing noticed that the pattern on the hilts of the two swords was similar and while the patterns on Tiing's sword were white in colour, Rowachiha's were black.

"That should be none of your concern. All I'm here for is to defeat you!"

"It's that wretched witch, isn't it?" Rowachiha was referring to Aura.

"What's Aura done to you that your blood boils at the sound of her name?" Tiing asked,

"Don't take her name in front of me!!" Rowachiha yelled and attacked Tiing angrily,

Tiing remembered that Aura said, "I believe that sword in your hands has something to do with it. I assume I can regain my life as it once was in the light if you defeat Rowachiha and the sword in his hands touches the one in yours." 

Tiing too attacked Rowachiha with all his strength and the swords touched.

"You're nothing but a stranger who's got nothing to do with any of this! Stop at once and leave while you still have the chance!"

"I refuse!" Tiing said clearly,

"If that is what you decide, then you must reap what you've sown!" Rowachiha warned with a scowl,
