SWIIISHHHHHHHH!!
A Knife right through Sharp's chest. Kokperk tries to take his katana out but he's too late. Another knife pierces kokperk's leg. It's another bandit..."hahaha ,kids ,you were strong but there are no rules in battle to deat---
And both of the bandits fall on ground immediately...."what is this pressure....what is this....presence.." as they see a silhouette of a lion, which strikes fear in them....they can't move...as the silhouette comes closer....
Master Monim looks at them..."I guess it was a bit too soon for you boys" he says as the bodies of the bandits burst....and blood is splattered around the area.
"The village these guys are coming from is not far...I will carry you boys....hold me tight."
He says and blitz and in 10 seconds... reaches the village , "everyone , my name is Master Monim, we have defeated the gang of bandits who took stuff from you, please call a Vaidya and help my subordinates....your grains and coins are safe...!"
The villagers come forward... muttering among themselves "he's Master Monim?, what took him so long?"
The village head comes forward, "We welcome you, Master Monim, the Vaidya of this village lives on the other side of that river--
Dust flies as Master Monim Blitz towards the Vaidya...hey...treat these kids.....
The Vaidya replies" these kids? Are you sure ?
Because one of them seems good to me...
Master Monim notices that Sharp's wounds are almost healed...."wait he was stabbed...how did he..."
Vaidya replies "it looks like he was not stabbed in the heart, his lung looks good too , are you sure he was stabbed? And why is he unconscious...?
Master Monim is in shock..."his power...is related to his blood....his every body function that is related to blood is enhanced..."
Vaidya replies "Does his body generate a lot of heat ? "
You see , i once heard about a patient, his blood was supernatural, his blood used to boil and generate heat"
Master Monim looks at the ground...."just treat them.." and walks away...
He remembers how Stark Ness was the person who's blood boiled..."If he really is the kid of Stark Ness, things will get complicated, Stark!!! You failed, and left this mess for me to clean!" He says with anger and sadness on his face...as if he knew Stark Ness.
"I will ask her ,the last time I asked for her advice, I told her it was going to my last time...and she laughed....I guess she knew i can't decide on something that easily."
Sharp and kokperk get treated...they both were unconscious....Vaidya walks upto Master Monim "the knives had poison , not a strong one but if you were not so fast, things could go bad...even That's kid with Special blood can't withstand a poison that takes over your brain."
Master Monim asks" how much time they will need..?"
Vaidya replies" they were already weak , their bones were already damaged....it looks like you really pushed them to their limits, they will be unconscious for a few days.... atleast."
Master Monim replies....."they are under your care now, I have to go somewhere, i will be back in two days...., the villagers have already collected the looted goods and grains , you can go take your part, here's a silver coin as a thanks"
He says and blitz away....he runs for 30mins straight...and reaches the headquarters of squad 22.
Squad 22 is the squad lead by his close friend from a long time... Her name Is Master Manny...and she is an Army general. She is a mature version of Master Monim and Monim always asks her for advice. She was the one who told him to form a squad.
He enters the room, and she looks at him "let me guess, you need help"
Master Monim"you know me too well"
Manny "haha , be quick I have work to do"
...."I met Stark's Son.."
Manny gets up... She's shock and disbelief.."you're kidding."
"No"
"Are you sure, did he claim that his father is Stark?"
"No, but their abilitys are similar. I felt crystal fusion on his body...but there was no mark.but we both know how smart Stark was. Right?
Manny replies "I see. So what are you going to do?"
Master Monim " I don't want to hand him over to the king's Royal Army . Even if his Father was a traitor who did questionable things....he doesn't deserve to die for his father's sins."
Manny replies"what if he gets to know about the army and what they did his father...will he not seek vengeance? "
"He won't. Iam sure he is not like his father. He is quite the opposite. I promise, when the time comes , he will understand and do what's right"
Manny sits "yeah..it's quite ironic though....us..army generals talking about right and wrong."
"It was the king's fault , there will be elections the next year, things will get better as someone else is elected...and by someone else..I mean... The voice of the people..Euro!"
Manny chuckles " now I know who you are voting for..". " Listen... Take care of Stark's son, don't let him go the wrong path. We need people to be good Army officials. Things are going to change..and so is our image among the common people. Make him a part of us."
Master Monim chuckles "thanks for the advice , this is the last time iam asking you for an advice! okay?"
Manny chuckles...."yeah sure, go away now...."
She flicks her finger on his chest and suddenly, he is outside the headquarter.
"That piece of shi, i told her to stop doing that... huh!"
"I ran too much , my body is barely standing now. I should go to my camp and sleep."

In the east army camp..
Only 10 contestants remain....the AAE HEAD OFFICER OF THE EAST DIVISION SAYS " All of you, are officially in the army, besides the dead ofcourse, we apologise for making you see this much blood. But we need you to understand, You will have to give your blood for the country.
You people have already met Master Monim, he going to come and select two of you but he is late due to a mission. So we will add another round to the exam. You have already shown us your power and brains. But you haven't shown us your team work.. I want all of you to teamup with someone. Go!
Candidates start looking for strong teammates. Someone bigger or taller. As they started to pairup. A candidate is standing in the side ,not getting picked by any of the other candidates as a teammate because he doesn't look big or muscular. Another scrawny weak looking candidate with a pair of glasses approaches him...
"hey, my name is hazy , would you like to be my teammate?"he smiles ,he looks like a highborn....
He replies "why would you want me to be your teammate? There are better options."
"Well, let's just say you can hide from the officials but you can't hide from me. Iam probably the only person here who can see through your mask". He says , as if he knows how strong that guy is.
He replies "Hazy? Was it?...My name is Faith. I guess you already know who iam.."
Hazy replies "yeah? They took our cloths but you still have your mask. Not a lot of people know about your mask do they?
Faith replies "but you do, how's that?"
Hazy replies "well i read. You should try reading some time , according to what I have read, you people, the masked Warriors of the blood valley don't like the army. Don't you guys have signed a peace treaty with the army. Why are you here?"
"That is none of your business."
We will be partners for this round, don't get too friendly....smartass"
Hazy smiles..."i knew it.....""it's almost time , everything went exactly...
The AAE HEAD: "OK, let's make this quick , the last team standing wins....go!"
And all of a sudden all of the candidates fall unconscious...besides Hazy and Faith..
.....As I planned"
Faith is shocked "wait ,what just happened, how did they?*
Hazy chuckles "in the last rounds ,I had been collecting some stuff, that I could use to poison their food and water. I have some army officials that are....lets just say they are nice to me....I already knew Master Monim was not going to come and had predicted a final selection round. You are still standing ,not because you are strong. You are standing because i decided that. I chose you."
"Poison??"
"Don't worry , they will not die , they will stay unconscious for a week . Iam not murderer, don't worry." He smiles as he says so.
Inside his head "ohhh shiii, it actually worked out. I was so scared, all of them could easily knock me out.....i must maintain the cool and mysterious personality to avoid him thinking iam weak. My heart ,thank God it worked out."
Faith puts his hand on Hazy's shoulder "good job, that was greattttttttt" he shoutsss in happiness and laughs...as he takes out his mask...
Hazy thinks "uhh, he is a bit too outgoing , this is not what I expected when I read that they were called the "the masked warriors of the blood valley"."
Faith grabs him and pulls him towards the camp , laughing and says "let's go and eat something...haha , we won"
Hazy "this is sooo uncooolll"
××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××
A lot of skills, a fountain of blood, jars full of blood, beheaded bodies...and saliva dripping down his mouth....and HE WAKES UP!
IT'S KOKPERK, He gets up, breathing heavily , sweating, and for some reason, he's agitated, and furious..... "THAT WAS A WEIRD NIGHMARE"
Where am I? I was hurt. Where's that guy , I must find him and kil--
He sees Sharp lying unconscious, his breathing slows down. It's almost like Sharp's presence makes him more of a human, and less of a killer...
Vaidya enters
"I didn't expect you to be the first one to get up"
