Reincarnation: Road to rebuild a lost home

Chapter 10: A tiger will take more



Words come out in such a young child telling Gabriel there is to be no more innocence left in the child. Now a home rises in since a baby is destroyed no more, and now his mother is to be gone this night only a blessing that young Gonten was able to know his mother for these past seven 7 years.

“I wish there was a way for me to take this burden and sadness off your shoulders, but at least my hands will not be able to make it happen when I am not in control of it,” Gabriel says being at the moment angry to not have that power in saving one fated for greatness and for suffering down the road.

“But you can't, is that right Gabriel, you can’t do anything for the pain in my heart at this moment, or anyone for that matter.”

“Gonten heed my advice from an old man who cares deeply like that of his grandson even if you hold great deeds of hate toward me now and for the next few years. Do not allow that anger to lead your path for what is truly set and placed before you is the way your kin can return to the lands they were born and run on freely.”

Gabriel waited to hear what the boy was going to say because the words to come out of that mouth were to tell this man what this same boy would become in the future when feeling the emotions of loss and pain.

“I won’t let it control, but I will not allow this anger to die until it feeds till it has overcome for no more to be eaten.” Such words as that would have to be for this were-tiger warrior from the Gonten now.

“Very well all I ask is that you give this old fool a chance to stand by your side till the last of his breath. If you wish to still have me stand with you after getting in the way of saving your mother, I even can see a reason for taking my life because of this and I will not fight against it or try giving a reason for my life to be spread only to spare some time, so I can make sure you and the people here are safe first before all else.”

Gonten looked back at him with a bloody expression of sadness as the eyes were leaking their waters falling to the side of the face. He could not fight back these tears from coming out, yet he would not allow himself to break his voice this way.

“You will stand by my side, so I have a say when your life is at an end do you hear me, Gabriel,” Gonten tells this man, understanding loud and clear.

Gabriel understood by going down on one knee and bowing head seeing it was about the right time in showing his loyalty to one who was given the clear blessing path by the tiger god.

“My life is yours to see fit, I'm just a humble warrior to do as you wish for the future king of our people.”

/12 years later in the western lands/

“Twelve years it has been that day when the younger self of you was no more that night. I say the pure Gonten had died along with those that fought for their land stand.” Gabriel has a bit of sadness and pride in his tone.

Gonten and Gabriel were sitting leg-crossed on the dirt ground among the trees around the trees hearing the sounds of the birds and animals from different directions from the location these two were as they were facing each other while sitting down.

“Yes, he did die that day and had become anew someone else differently with the burning fury in making those pay for how much was taken from him even at birth. No more is that to be, instead this tiger will take this time and it will come at a greater cost as the tiger is to show how much it can eat from its enemies.” Gonten says for Gabriel to respect it and understand feelings from it.

“Indeed, you have made sure to turn into a new person commenting on the role they are to play for a better future for theirs and the people who will follow with their lives in this person's hands.”

“And today is the day we are to see if I am ready to take on that certain role after all the training for these past few years. The day has come for us to see it payoff is that right old man.”

Gonten didn’t mean just him and the old man, there were three others there standing in the back quietly awaiting the sigh when they were to step in.

Two twin male brothers Sion and Seneus both share the physical peak of muscular build as seen in the open without anything covering their upper bodies, but their lower parts with short leather hides made from hunted prey.

As twins they do have different hairstyles, Seneus had simple long hair tied into a ponytail that goes as far as the neck.

Sion had a short-long hairbrush back nicely straightened.

The third female is Zely, sharing a little similar physical build, but not as many muscles compared to the twins. Her chest area and lower half are also covered with the same leather hide, she also had long hair, braided into a ponytail which reached far behind the back.

“That is correct, Gonten the test is just that to see if you are ready to become the king to lead their people back to their homelands. Combat is just the beginning of what you are to learn from the world of Thosailea since knowing to be strong and able in combat there are other traits you will need to gain.” Gabriel tells him knowing this is much the older were-tiger can teach Gonten.

“Then we should begin the test, I think this talk has reached its point of end.”

Gabriel nods his head and gets off the ground turning his back to walk towards those three looking at each face before speaking.

“All right, Seneus, you can take the starting lead for combat.” Gabriel picks this one to get it started.

“Finally, we are going to get the fun started, so that means there is no need to be holding back going all out is allowed like we are to kill each other.”

“Yes, but none of you are to push it over the limit where an actual death is to happen here. Make sure each of you keeps from letting that killing thrust take control.”

“Yeah, I got it, but we are were-tigers, and we can sometimes lose ourselves even if it is just a test of combat.”

Sensus says that it is a joke, but the man doesn't find it funny and just steps to the side for him to take the hint in moving forward and do what he has to do.

Gonten got off the ground to now stand without anything on this great muscular form that was a bit more compared to the twins. Hair was quite far along and untamed, being all wild without a nice brush to straighten it out.

There was a long scar on the left side of the face that goes downward across the eye, lucky enough to not lose sight, able to see from it still.

“Gonten, just heads up here don’t get too upset when I beat your ass badly you got it,” Sensus says to be a half-joke that Gonten found to laugh a little at.

“Sensus don’t lie to yourself thinking such a thing is not good for your pride when it becomes broken by the aftermath of this combat my friend.”

“Oh, is that so going to laugh at you, well then Gonten, I’m going to have to prove it to you then.”

Sensus gets into his fighting stance showing the eyes to be wide and filled with excitement. Claws out and free ready to be used where he releases a loud and powerful roar shouted out from the young adult were-tiger.

Gonten does the same meeting his roar with his as the other watch to witness two were-tigers soon to engage in their fight.
