Chapter 14 - Ninja

Ola and Cila walk through the poor village, People looking at them but only for a glance as most of them are carrying baskets full of vegetables and bread, Taking them to there houses ready for the cold week that is upon them since the clouds and temperature show that it will be snowing soon.

Eventually Ola and Cila leave the village and head on a path. "Elie sure is a nice women", Ola says casually. Cila who is walking next to him thinks about when she first met Elie when she stormed off during Ola's drunken acts. 

Ola glances at Cila and notices a small grin on her face. "Huh, what's that look on your face", Ola says teasingly. That only ticks her off because she still hasn't forgiven Ola for being a jerk and getting drunk.

"You can shut up, you idiot, I'm just thinking about something Elie said that's all", Cila says in a now grumpy voice as she pouts and looks away from him while they walk.

Ola takes surprise in her words, Especially after she told him to 'Shut up'. "Oh, you still haven't forgiven me about being drunk, Well just know I'm sorry" Ola knows he wont be forgiven but he also hopes he wont anyway, That way he knows she is growing up.

After a while of walking in awkward silence a loud scream that echoes through the trees around the path. Ola and Cila stop and look in the direction. "What's that, A girl" Cila says then Ola starts running in the direction, "Either way, Somebody is in trouble" Ola says as a jumps over a large tree stump.

Ola runs through the trees, Pushing aside the leaves and branches. Another scream which is much louder now and closer, "That's definitely a girl" Ola thinks to himself before pushing the last branch to a open field. In the distance are three young girls. They all seem to be fighting each other. Ola runs over to them and blocks two of the girls punches. "Stop, Why are you fighting" Ola shouts.

The girls look in shock and retract there fists and stand there, Sweating and breathing heavily. The red haired girl who looks around Nineteen years old speaks first, her voice tired but full of determination. "Who are you, Leave us alone, Were only training", She says to Ola who is in the middle of them,

Ola looks at her, Her clothes are dirty and her hands are red and bruised. "Training huh, Are the three of you friends", Ola says looking at her. "Yes we are, we are all best friends" The black haired girl speaks up. Ola sighs now knowing no one is in danger.

"You know. Try and be more quiet, Your lucky its me who showed up here after hearing those screams, Anyone could have came" Ola says as if scolding them like children. The exhausted girls all sit down on the grass. They are panting loud sounding like dogs.

Cila finally gets put of the tree's and now on the open field and can see Ola in the distance with the three girls sitting on the ground. She runs over to them, Breathing a bit heavy from the run. "Ola, don't run off like that, Jeez" Cila says to Ola. She looks down at the three girls who are older than her.

"Who are you girls anyway, You got names" Ola asks the question in case they don't like Cila didn't. The girls laugh with sarcasm. " duhh of course we do, Who doesn't, Idiot. I am Julie", Says the black haired girl. "I'm Lucy", Says the red haired girl. "And i am rose", Says the brown headed girl.

"Cool, Nice to meet you three, but what are you training for any way, are you mages" Ola says with interest. The girls look at each other then back at Ola. "No, We are not mages, Were ninja", Lucy says. Cila now hearing the conversation is curious hearing they are ninja's. "Ninja huh" Cila says.

The girls look at her with smug faces since she is a small child. " And you are what", Lucy says, "who are you, Child", Rose says. Cila starts to feel a bit intimidated by the three girls. They are older than her and they look at her like she is annoying them. Ola can sense Cila's feelings. " She is Cila, She is my friend and companion", Ola says with no hint of lie or indifference.

This makes the girls laugh at the fact he is friends with a child. Their laughter ringing inside Cila's head. This triggers her and makes her mad. "Shut up, Don't you dare laugh at Ola", Cila shouts. Two of the girls keep laughing but Julie stops and looks serious as she recognises the name Ola. 

" W-What. Ola, That name is of the guy from them books. The guy who is apparently extremely dangerous and pure evil, Wasn't he around two thousand years ago, Huh, Its risky going around with that name you know" Juile says in a low voice. The other tow stop laughing as they hear Juile's words. The three of them look at Ola, There smugness gone.

Cila knew she had messed up accidently saying Ola's name. "I am that guy from the books, Well I guess, My name is Ola and i was alive two thousand years ago like you. But, Those book were all a lie. I am not evil and i do not wish to harm anyone" Ola suddenly speaks up saying the truth. The girls freeze suddenly fear starts to grown within them.
