The Destruction of Batana

A TRAITOR? 3

Three days later.

I was taken by four soldiers. Handcuffed. They took me out of the room. While walking down the hallway. And look around me. I even counted the number of rooms and surveillance cameras embedded on the roof of the room. They took me quickly. As if being chased by time.

The sunlight pierced my eyes. They took me to an airport. There are hundreds of soldiers out there. They are most likely bandits. Zenzen even led them directly. He was praying in front of all his followers. Every day I think he's crazy. He once said he wasn't human. From wherever he is seen he is human.

I still don't know where Jora is. He is my big question right now. I always thought about it while I was in the room. But I've always strayed away from that thought. I'm sure Jora couldn't have betrayed us.

Before this day comes, I have a little secret. It's just not time I told you this secret. Later if I managed to escape from Zenzen's grasp. And when that time comes, I promise to tell you my little secret. I swore I would tell my friends everything. After I set them free.

The entire army was brought into a giant jet black aircraft with four muzzles on the front. The wings themselves have four turbos with pointed spines at the ends. Seeing that plane reminds me of a giant plane belonging to Keios City. It's just that this plane is uglier and more miserable. Describe once if this plane belonged to the bandits.

Zenzen was standing right next to me looking at his giant plane.

“How? Cool, right?” Ask Zenzen to me.

I stared cynically at him. My answer, “ugly once.”

Zenzen laughed out loud. His hair twitched. “You must have bad taste, son. I named this plane Crowned Crow.”

I shook my head slowly. The name even sounds ugly.

Zenzen took me on a plane. Inside was not much different from the Keios City plane. The architecture is more like Gothic. Sometimes I look around me. Research this aircraft as best you can.

I was taken to the topmost room as well as the brain of the plane. That room is the steering room. Zenzen was even sitting next to me. If I could, I'd have wanted to beat him up. But it is the same as a rash action. I have to be patient and wait. That's my way of freeing my friends from him.

Plane rumbling, signs preparing to take off. I watched the airport one last time while whispering in my heart, “wait a minute. I will definitely save you all.”

“Didn't you wonder why I was able to be in the Ditch City and catch you and your friends?” Zenzen started the conversation.

I'm not interested at all. To me whatever way he did was in a foul way.

“Of course it's an easy thing, son. I haven't told you everything, have I? All right, during this trip I'll tell you everything.” Zenzen laughs. “Let's start from the day before I find your mother's body. You remember your three cousins?”

Instantly, my anger peaked again. My hands are clenched. Prepare to let go of my fist whenever my emotions are out of bounds. Holy hooch! It's really driving me crazy.

“At that time I gathered a few people including your village elders. I was just negotiating with them. Whoever tells me where Batrice and Lian Clue are, I'll let them go alive. If I refuse, I'll just kill them. That's when someone said it if you were hunting in the woods. I also rushed to find you to the place designated by the person. But unfortunately, I only found your cousin and sister. Again I did the same negotiation as I did with the residents. I'll give you a chance to live if they tell me where you are.”

I clenched my hand tighter. It was only fitting that I did not discover the whereabouts of my three cousins.

“Three of your cousins were ready to answer, until your mother came to help them all. I can't believe your mother used an incredible weapon against me. I even made trouble with your mother's resistance. He only managed to bring your sister but not your three cousins. I decided to take them as prisoners. Waiting for you to return and save your three cousins. Sure enough my guess is, you came to the same place. But again Batrice foiled everything. He really is a very troublesome pest. Looks like he shared a weapon made by himself to the residents.”

“Sorry that my efforts did not pay off, I vented it on the entire village. Even I killed your three cousins with my own hands.” Zenzen was silent for a moment. Smiling knot.

“I told my troops to split up looking for your whereabouts. Just so you know, for a few years I've been tucking in some of my guys to infiltrate some town. You could say they were my spies. I told them to be higher-ups in each of those cities. One of them is Keios.”

I was surprised by that fact. That means Zenzen's been watching me all along.

Zenzen resumed his sentence. “If you can, I've been carrying you. But I didn't want to do such a bar-bar thing, I decided to make you come to me by yourself. Be I tell my spies to persuade you to stop the RP-2. Oh! You should have guessed who that guy was. For whatever reason I tell you who that person is.”

I punched the passenger seat. Staring sharply at Zenzen. “Cursed are you Zenzen!”

“HAHAHA! How does it feel to be betrayed by your friend? I just did the same thing that your mother betrayed me. I just want to have a little fun. I know you won't die that easily during this trip, because I ordered the RP-2s not to kill you. I'm just asking them to knock you out. I even know that you won't die when you desperately face the storm. Because I know, you're no longer human.”

I was ready to punch him in the face. But the plane suddenly shook violently. I even fell to the floor of the plane.

“BOSS! OUR PLANE IS CONTROLLED BY SOMEONE!” Shouted the pilot.

Damnit damnit! If this is how my plan will fail! Zenzen pulled my body. He glared at me.

“You did this, huh?” He said in a soft voice.

I really didn't do anything. It's true that I plan to control this giant plane, but I'll still plan on doing it later. Who is trying to control the plane?

The plane was re-shaken followed by a rumbling sound. I could see some small planes approaching. Oi! I know the shape of the plane. The plane belongs to Keios City!

A shot shot shot straight towards the window where Zenzen and I were. I ducked down to take cover. Instantly the inside of the plane was sucked out. I held onto one of the iron connected to the wall of the room. My body was pulled out. Some bandits were blown out of the plane.

Zenzen is trying to catch me in the middle of this precarious situation. He knew I would try to escape under these conditions. The pilot of the plane has been killed by gunfire from small planes belonging to the city of Keios. The plane began to lose control. And prepare to fall to the ground.

Within minutes, the giant plane crashed. Fortunately this aircraft has been designed in such a way as to reduce the impact of impact due to a fall. Great shock made me bounce around. Thanks to my training while at the Sky Academy and in The-pi City, I was still able to reduce the impact with the objects around me.

The plane landed safely. I still hear gunshots out there. Quickly remove the handcuffs in my hand using the power I just mastered. A blue light shrouded my hand. Then the handcuffs came off like burnt paper.

I'm currently dealing with Zenzen. He screamed in anger. His face looks so scary. I was about to punch him in the punch. A black smoke covered my eyes. Instantly a few soldiers in black uniforms entered the room. They took me away. While the others were trying to fight Zenzen who roared furiously.

I was taken off the plane. Some bandits tried to block us. But I know their weaknesses. They won't be able to kill me. They lose easily.

The black-clothed soldiers took me to one of their planes. They took me away from the battlefield. I was even given a uniform and a helmet. This really is Private Keios! How could they all be here?

One of them took off his helmet. Holy hooch!

“Save all your questions for later, Lian” Jora said with a smile.
