Chapter 17

Banans POV

She surprises me with a smile. Why does she smile? I'm the one who usually smile. Dew looks behind me, while Mino still looks at me. I have a bad feeling about this.

"Help! Darling, he attacked me." Mino shouts. The owner gives his guards his command, I withdraw my ax. Mino was the woman beside him earlier? I tried to avoid other hunters, which is why I chose this ship, yet one of them are here. Anzor is enough luggage, now I have to get rid of her to?

The waiters bring me down some stairs to the storeroom and into a small prison cell where Anzor sits. They leave us. Anzor sits at the ground and are drawing something invisible at the ground with his finger. When he sees me he looks shocked.

"What? Why are you here?" He asks stressed or confused.

"Mino! She tricked me," I say angry and hold tight around the bars. This storage is huge and it's almost filled with packages, boxes and barrels. I wonder what's in there.

"Mino? Is she here?"

"Yes, she is the kid's lady right now." Anzor curses. He pinches his eyes together and thinks. Unfortunately the guards took my weapons and my purse; there is no way for us to get out of here.

Talias POV

Mino brings me to her cabin. It smells fresh and new. It's a quadrate and pretty small actually. There is a fancy blue coach, a closet and a big double bed with blue flowers on the bedclothes. She sits down at the bed. Around her neck she wears Banans red purse.

"Anzor didn't wear anything interessting. Banan on the other hand have this thing, it's filled with books and stuff that might be entertaining." I sit beside her.

"Did you get it from the guards? And how do you know them?" She doesn't pay attention to my question. Mino open Banans purse and throw his stuff at the bed. Could she be one of the other people who are after me? She tried to help me, but why? The red purse contains three small books and the paper with the poem on. I take one of the books and open it. This diary belongs to the family of Kan. It says at the first page. Kan again. I read some sentences on random pages.

The sword makes my blood pump faster and I feel powerful.

I have noticed something strange about myself. When I fall or get injured, the injury vanish at once.

I don't know why, but it seemed like I couldn't handle losing that much blood. My heartbeat rose, and I suddenly fainted.

What is this? My blood…

My blood.

Blood.

I close it. Mino stares at me with her head crooked. It looks like she is trying to figure what my problem is.

"You don't know about your family yet?" She asks excited. Maybe I finally have found someone who understands me and want to explain what situation I'm in.

"No."
"Your name is Talia Kan." Mino starts to scroll and read in one of the books. She doesn't get what she is reading. Her mouth is open and her eyes seem to read the same sentence over and over.

"You can't read?" I ask her.

"Not much, but I understand some words," she says and still try to read the same sentence.

"Got harmed. The wound disappeared. Blood," she mumbles.

"Is there something special about your blood? Blood is repeated a lot of times." She looks up from the book. Mino doesn't know more than I do. Talia Kan.
