The Hunter's blind heart.

Chapter 18

Once I opened my eyes I took a deep breath and looking around I noticed that Arok was still 'resting' if you can say so, if it hadn't been for him I would never have woken up, even if I continued to be perplexed as to why my fate gave me another life to live.

The last thing I remember is a big explosion, the fire burning my body, screams of people shouting my name, and Sain'ja who stayed close to me until our last breath together, he could save himself, he could continue to live, but what we lived in that prison, only a few of us will remember, the turtles and their sadistic games would not have made anyone sleep peacefully.

Now I am here, in the present, in another time and world, and the air here is so calm and clean, it reminds me a lot of my home, all those trees and the greenery that surrounded us, who knows what happened at that time, who knows why Arok did not know my story or even better the story of his ancestors.

What matters now is that he understands which path he wants to take, but whatever he chooses I will remain close to him and protect him, I hope that the dream he is living makes him understand a small part of my history and the future that awaits him, but I know that once he wakes up we would have a lot to talk about, but in the meantime I can happily enjoy the awakening and the new world around me.

While he was resting I took a hot and relaxing shower and finished that too I stood in front of the mirror, I was curious to know and discover my new body, looking at myself and observing the features of my body and face I noticed that I was me but at the same time there was also Hope, we have the same long blond hair, full lips, red cheeks, and a curved and toned body, the only thing she didn't know she had was the eyes, the eyes are now very blue like the sky, so clear that you can see yourself in it.

It will be difficult to explain to Arok what happened, but I will try to make him understand as much as possible, what he will need to know is that Hope will always be here in me, her memories and the emotions she felt in the most intimate moments with him I feel it too, now that I think about it this body is new in a certain sense, let's say reborn, the desire to be touched by him as he did with her makes me feel jealous, but over time we will get to that too, but first we have to find the enemy and prevent other innocents from dying.

Finished drying and getting dressed I went under, where I found Hope's dog, Blitz, he continued to stare at me trying to figure out if it was her or not and whether to trust it or not, so I lowered myself to his level and held out a hand to him, he slowly approached the hand and as he sniffed it and stood at attention to reassure him I said, "It's okay, I know I'm not her, but I'll take care of you like Hope did. You've always been a good helper and a very good friend. Thank you. "
