Jian was sitting alone on the campus garden bench he looked dreamy. Meanwhile from far away Haru seemed to be constantly watching him.
"Jian, what are you doing here?" tanya Haru patted Jian on the shoulder.
"Nothing, I was just sitting around casually" Jian replied.
"If you're not busy, will you go with me?" ask Haru.
"Where to?" asked Jian.
"Go for a walk, so you don't get moody anymore."
"Sorry Haru I don't want to go for a walk anywhere right now. Maybe I just need some time alone, I'm fine" Jian replied.
"I see, it's lunch, you have to eat regularly and get sick. See you soon." Haru said as he put down the food package, then walked away from Jian.
Haru was anxious because it was past lunchtime Jian was still sitting on the park bench and daydreaming. Is he going to be okay thought Haru turned to Jian who was still engrossed in his own world.

Adrian was sitting in his room, holding a small letter. I wonder if I will send the letter or not. I don't know how many times he's been pacing around in that room.
But finally he took a deep breath and headed for his favorite eagle cage. He then took the eagle out of his cage.The bird had three faint gold lines on its feathers. Adrian tied the letter to the bird's foot. Go, deliver my letter as usual. The bird flew high above the palace, getting further and disappearing from Adrian's sight.
A sigh of relief was drawn on his face. "i must indeed end this all before it is too late, please forgive me Jian" he murmured softly.

Far away from that place in the depths of the dense forest a man was busy sharpening his sword and making arrows. The man was tall and burly.although he looked shabby from sweat.it all could not hide the good looks on his face.

Scarlet decides to find out what really happened. He could not help the curiosity that continued to haunt his mind. He decided to go to teacher Jian to find out the true circumstances.
"I was worried that this would all happen, therefore I never let my students out of the Western Faction prematurely, if only I were more careful" teacher Jian began his explanation.
"What does the head of the Western Faction mean?" ask Scarlet in wonder.
"When I first met my student, he caught my attention. I realized the power of fire within him. That power was once possessed by an earlier king. I want to be his teacher, because I believe he will become a big man in Fantasy Land one day" teacher jian took a deep breath before continuing his words.
"I didn't let him out of the western faction, for fear that anyone would envy him before he was ready. But the boy was very talented and always broke my orders. He met Adrian, who was a future king without my knowledge. I one day found out the power of fire in him was no ordinary power. It was a prepared omen on the would-be leaders of Fantasy Land before they ascended the throne."
"So you mean Jian is the leader of the Fantast land is not actually Adrian." asked Scarlet curiously.
"Rightly I feel the royal decree has been forged by someone."
"Who's so evil doing all this?" scarlet said grimly.
"The head of the western faction need not worry, I will help Jian to seek justice for him."
"Thank you, I'm not an ambitious person for power, nor am I a student. But if they have hurt my students I will not be silent" replied master Jian.
Then they both fell silent. Busy with their own minds. Flashes of the past and future lay in their minds.
