Tine was shocked seeing Milan as she spoke "Milan" Milan stared at her. Jason and Caroline saw him too they were shocked. Milan and Bellamy took them as far as they can. They stopped. 

"Milan is that you?, I mean how? We saw you die" Caroline was speaking Milan got off the horse.

"I don't know what you guys are talking about?" Tine wanted to get off the horse Milan helped her down. Bellamy didn't remove his mask

"Please tell me it's you, Tell me please" Tine was shedding tears.

"I'm sorry but I don't know any Milan, my name is Miles. By the way you seem like new people where are you heading.

"We are"

"It's none of your business, Thank you for saving us back then. But too bad you are not Milan. If you were Milan then we would've told you" Milan saw Tine was bleeding on her foot.

Tine was trying to get back on the horse Milan helped her up.

"Good luck fellas. I hope you find and get what you're looking for be careful bandits are everywhere in these woods." Milan got on the horse with Bellamy and they left away. Tine Caroline and Jason were shocked.

"Guys that was him right?" Tine was asking them.

"He said he is Miles not Milan"

"Maybe he lost his memories after he died"

"You mean after you set him on fire. Tine Milan died and we all witnessed that" Jason spoke

"He may be Milan, either he lost his memories or he is doing this on purpose trying not to know us after what we did to him"

"Come on we have to go, we don't have long day" It was almost evening.

They ride away heading to New Outer Lands. They reached the gates they saw refugees were going inside one by one questioning by the guards. 

"Wow such a beautiful village, tight security and high population" Caroline was speaking. They parked their horse and started walking inside. They walked inside as the guards stopped them.

"Who are you? Why have you come here? Are refugees?" They were asked Tine was doing the talking.

"No we are not refugees, we came here to meet the chief we need to discuss important things with him"

"Sorry but The chief only meets those who has appointments, do you have any appointments with him?"

"No we are new here, we have a home but we didn't come to seek shelter" Milan and Bellamy were standing watching them from a far. Salwa showed up and saw them too.

"What the hell are they doing here?"

"I don't know but we have to find out"

"Are you kidding me, they know you"

"It's okay we met before" Salwa was shocked Bellamy explained to her.

"Okay then I will go hide myself" Salwa left

"Go get them in bring them to my custody" Bellamy walked to the gate and saw the security were asking them hard questions.

"It's okay let them in" Bellamy went to take them. They walked inside the village.

"Wow this is amazing" Caroline was speaking.

"Believe me this is the best village" Bellamy spoke to her.

"So Bratva." Tine wanted to ask something about Bratva but before she finished Bellamy turned to face her very angrily. Jason prepared to fight

"We don't say that name here, not ever" Bellamy smiled at her.

"Come this way" They were welcomed inside Milan's custody.

"Wait here, he will be down any moment"

They sat down waiting for the chief.

"Do you think he will be able to help us?" Jason asked Tine.

"We have to try hard, our people depend on us now we have to make it worthy"

After 20 minutes Milan showed up to them they stood up shocked.

"You? Are you following me?" Bellamy showed up to them.

"This is our chief Miles" They were surprised 

"Bellamy send word the visitors should be treated accordingly, prepare the rooms for them for a night" 

"Yes" Bellamy walked away and left him.

"Sorry but we don't plan to stay here tonight" Tine spoke to him. Jason and Caroline were quiet.

"The road out there is dangerous to travel at night"

"Thank you but we are here to discuss with you some important issues" Jason spoke to him.

"Okay I'm listening"

"We are here because we need your help, our village have been occupied by the man called Bratva, for the past 18 years now, Our people live in fear, we produce for this man, he is very ruthless and dangerous, one day he came we didn't have anything to produce, he killed 10 villagers, took away women and children. For him you either live and produce for him or you don't" Jason was telling him, Tine was staring very sharp at him but Milan was acting very normal.

"I hear your story, it's sad, so why did you come to me?"

"We need your help, give us anything you can give, we have left with 2 days until our produce meeting and we have run out everything. No cows no plants, no animals we have nothing. If Bratva come this time he will kill all of us"

"Wow, amazing" they were surprised hearing that from him.

"Amazing? How can you say that? This person is dangerous and very strong, don't you have a heart? Or did you lost someone in your life? Someone you cared about? You didn't right if you did then you would know how much it hurts" Tine was yelling at him.

"I don't care, everyone I used to trust betrayed me" They were all shocked.

"What did you just say?" Bellamy showed up to them.

"Get some rest, I'm sure you are all tired after very thing you went through. Bellamy will showed you to your rooms. I will arrange what I can and give you what you need" Milan wanted to walk away Tine stood beside him.

"You said everyone you used to trust betrayed you, tell us what does that mean?" She was very eager to know about him. Milan stares at her then walked away without saying anything.

"Please follow me this way" Bellamy took them to their rooms everyone was given one room.

Later on that night Tine was outside her room staring at the stars.

"Gosh it's so beautiful here" Milan was passing by he was wearing his fighting costume the same black ones but he didn't have a mask on him. As he was heading out. Tine saw him eyes to eyes Milan stopped and stares at her. Tine was quiet all along she didn't say a word.

"This Milan you speak of, do I look that much like him?"

"Of course just like him" 

"Was he cruel like me? What was he like?"

"He was the best thing in my life, he was kind and ready to risk his life for a stranger"

"Was he human like me?"

"No, he was a beast. A best kind one he was protecting people but we made a mistake by killing him. I was filled with hatred I didn't even saw the future. He tries to show me the light but I ignored him. And I killed him." Tine was shedding tears while speaking. Milan was just staring at her.

"If he was here today, what would you say to him?"

"That I was very wrong, and I am sorry, I love him more than anything. You know he died knowing that I will give birth to a boy. But I gave birth to a girl and she's a fighter just like her father." Milan was shocked hearing that.
