The slope was steep but she managed to get down to the foot of the huge mountain, she placed the boys down as she slumped down onto the ground.
A bullet had bruised through her shoulder and it was bleeding.
Up on the cliff the assailants stood there watching as the Jeep was grazed down into a pile of scraps.
"Do you think they died?" One of the assailants asked.
"Do you think they will escape that huge fire? They must be burning in there." Another man retorted back.
"I also think they are burning down, let's go and report it back to the Boss." They got into their car and drove away entering Country X.
Ming Xie used her powers to remove the bullet and heal the wound a little, because she had used too much power and was drained, she closed her eyes to rest as she laid down on the ground, she needed to re- energize herself.
In the Cave after calming down, Lin Wei stood up and began inspecting her surroundings, the strange creature had walked away after waiting for too long.
After seeing all is clear, she got out of the tiny tunnel first and then signalled her mother to crawl out, after she got out, she supported her as they dashed down the wider tunnel as fast as they could.
But they got into a dead end sooner, the place looked like an old tomb, at the alter there was a crystallized coffin.
Luo Wei moved nearer and nearer, it's like something pulling her and she couldn't stand firm nor stop.
Lin Wei been inspecting their surroundings to see if there is any hidden door or exit and when she turned around to check on her mother, she was surprised to see her approaching the coffin.
"Mother... Don't!" She dashed forward to stop her but was knocked off by a bizarre power, she fell down the stairs, she turned around to look at her mother who was proceeding up the stairs.
She didn't have any idea of what to do, she knelt down there watching as her mother got into the coffin and closed itself, it laid there quietly.
In the Camp everyone was worried, Eagle and Scorpion have been inspecting the soldiers, after they finished filling up the hole they let them rest as they walked into the dining room.
"Scorpion, aren't you worried about Ming Xie? She rushed out carelessly!" Eagle asked as he began eating.
" There is nothing I can do, you know how all of them are hotheaded so you can't change their mind no matter what you say, we just have to wait and see if they will be back in a day or two, if not, then we can plan out something." Scorpion responded while munching down on his food.
"We will wait until Miss and Young Miss have returned then we can know what the next step to take is." Scorpion said as he walked past the gazebo and entered into the dining hall.
He was damn tired and exhausted he wanted some tea to relax his mind, Eagle joined him.
"Do you think they will be fine? And where is Wei Wei and her mother." Lin Juan asked worriedly.
"They will be back; We just have to wait." Lin Fai replied as he turned to the old fellows.
" Let's continue from where we left in the conference room, we have alot to discuss." He spoke out as everyone turned to face him.
They began having a chat and the tensed up atmosphere finally relaxed as they talked freely.
In the cave, Lin Wei stood up as she staggered up the stairs, trying to reach her mother again but was knocked off with hidden powers.
She fell down the stairs again, "mother? What's happening?" She couldn't fathom whatever was going on.
Everything was bizarre, "mother... What's happening?" She called out loudly, but she got no response.
'what should I do? What should I do? I can't go on standing here, right?' she didn't know where to begin from.
In the Forest, having had enough rest, she snapped her eyes open and carried the two boys as she dashed away into the wildness, the forest was huge and mazed.
"Auntie Ming Xie, we can walk." Lin Hong stated embarrassedly, it was terrible to be carried around like a baby.
"There are people moving in this side, I heard their footsteps, so we have to find a safer place to hide in first" she responded as she continued and finally saw a huge cave.
She dashed inside without much care and hide in a corner, but suddenly they heard a loud growl.
"Growl! Growl! Growl!"
They paled, Ming Xie stood infront of the boys as she covered them, the lion dashed towards her attacking ruthlessly.
Ming Xie got her knife from her thigh and began defending while giving it fatal slashes, fighting head on she got bruised at her hand as the lion bit her hand.
She backed a few steps back, blood was already oozing, she looked down at her hand that was bleeding, she could see the huge teeth marks left after being bitten.
She held the knife tightly in her hand and dashed forward using her powers, she slashed it on the neck, where the fatal vein was and killed it.
"Growl! Grow! Growl!"
"Growl! Growl! Growl!"
It whimpered before closing it's eyes and died, Ming Xie slumped down onto the floor, using her powers, she began healing her hand, but what surprised her was they heard more growls outside the forest moving towards the cave.
They could hear heavy footsteps, it felt like animal migration, Ming Xie picked up the boys and shot out faster and vanished into the thick forest.
"Damn it! How could they disappear?" One person spoke out.
" Did you smell that fragrance? It was sweet and magical, let's go." Another one said as they dashed into the thick forest, tagging behind the vanishing figure.
Ming Xie heard the heavy sounds of footsteps rushing to their direction, and she knew they are being chased.
"How did they know we are in the cave? Who are they?" She silently thought.
" Ming Xie I think your hidden power could be the one attracting them, they will surely track us down to no end." Lin Hong stated his thoughts.
" Yeah they are closing in faster, they will catch on us soon. I am already running at 1000km/hr, could they be supernatural beings too?" She spoke out.
