He stand up and walk to her,"I sent so many people to woke you up but you keep sending them back"
"Am sorry, Master but if I don't sleep well, I can't practice well"
Prince Ricardo laughs, Dara was glad that she made her Master smile.
"Come with me" he said and Dara follow, they are face to face with a pouncing bag.
"Hit this bag,make sure this robe cut"
Someone bowed to him,"My lord, the minister need you" prince Ricardo nods, "am coming" he replied.
"Make sure you pounce that bag" he said and leave with the servant.
Dara sign as she look at the pouncing bag, "this is easy" she said and hit the bag, "aww, it strong"
Dara keep pouncing the bag, over and over again. Her hand reach to the bag and hit it.
She keep doing it for days, food is brought to her, prince Ricardo keep watching her. Dara keep hitting the bag.
"Don't you think she is the right one to be your wife"
"Aunt Mulan, what are you saying. She is my student"
"After Rose left you, no woman has come into your life"
"Aunt Mulan, I have told you before, I won't get married. Rose will be my first and last love"
"Don't say that, move on, she is with her husband right now but you're here holding onto her. Dara is a good girl, she will bring happiness into your life. Why don't you see it"
"Catana, plan this right"
"My child, Catana is your best friend and she can watch you destroy your life just because of a girl. Please start a new life with Dara"
"Catana, you're here, I was looking everywhere for you"
"Zale, am I cursed?"
Zale sit with Catana, "what are you saying?"
"I have not said this before, am a red that"
Zale move back,"you're a redthat!?"
Catana nods,"you're scare right?"
Zale nods,"I didn't notice anything"
"Because something is holding it back" pointing at her hand,"my hand chain was giving to me at birth by my mother to hold it in"
"Then show it to me"
Catana pull out the hand chain and her eyes turn red. Zale fall on the ground,"you're a redthat"
"I know you will be scare, am going to the palace to show myself"
"No don't, you're not cursed"
"I am, look at me, I keep a cheerful face thinking all will be alright but this keep hurting me that am not normal as you"
Zale hug her,"don't think that way, am with you" tears run out of her eyes then her eyes become normal.
Zale pick up the hand chain and place it around her wrist,"don't go to the palace to show your face, the king will kill you but for me you're Catana, the easy going and cheerful young lady"
Catana smile, "thank you Zale"
