chapter 3

It was a long time before Kai could regain his composure, when he finally calmed down, he laughed.

"Ha ha ha ha ha" was not a laughter of happiness was impotence and frustration, mixed with that bitter laughter tears fell from the eyes, had been many years since the last time I cried had always maintained a last ray of hope but Today kai finally collapsed

Somewhere deep in her heart there was a small ray of hope to be 'normal' to have a life like everyone else, to make friends, to have a girlfriend, to form a family ... to be happy. But now everything collapsed and there was nothing left, in front of kai there were 2 options.

First; Is that he was really crazy ... during the last years all the effort and sacrifice only served to feed his madness, that somehow his mind was playing with him, planting false clues, seeing and hearing only what he wanted, forming a Extravagant story where he was the protagonist ... that would be the best of the jokes, everyone was always right he was 'crazy' everything was a huge lie, he had deceived himself for years.

The second path; Everything was real, at some point in time there had been a war between 2 worlds that no one had heard of and no evidence exisist, that for some reason he was the only person in the world who knew the truth and could Save the world,

if the second path was fulfilled if this war really happened and would happen again was not better than being crazy, he had seen what happened when the earth and the abyss were combined last time; Pain, fear, suffering, chaos, kai not only saw him he also lived it, the dreams were so real that sometimes it was as if he lived it and did not want to relive it.

No matter what if it was crazy or if the world came to an end, there was no happy ending as in the stories, there was no light in the tunnel ... only darkness, pain and frustration.

Kai cried all night, did not want to go back to sleep, did not want to dream of another fantasy, he  look at the sky and the clouds until dawn he does not remember the last time he saw the sky.

"Was it always so blue?" He wondered.

Years ago when was a boy before nightmares once lay on the grass with his mother watching the clouds move, looking familiar forms, laughing, was a very fuzzy memory could not remember how it was like back then, could not remember the face of His mother or the face of his father, but there was something he remembered he had seen the clouds until he fell asleep on the arms of his mother then she carried and took him to bed, he could still feel the scent of flowers and wet grass, it was a memory that was buried deep in his heart.

"My mother ... family..." those were words that did not make much sense to him, kai was always different too clever for his own good. Understood that when it no longer had value for the lieng family was discarded like an old piece of furniture; His father, brothers, aunts and uncles, grandparents never visited him once, the only exception was his grandfather who visited him out of compassion, but even so he was very grateful had it not been for that visit long ago that he had been lost, could not even remember the face of her father or the name of her brothers and her mother.

After reading the records of the lieng family understood the fight for the powed and  inheritance, the winner took everything and the loser was disinherited along with all his family, kai was no more than a piece, an object that his mother used to monopolize his share Of the inheritance ... that was very bitter.

Kai had nothing, had no family, friends, lovers, acquaintances, even pet when he died nobody would remember, no one would know that existed, no one would know everything that fought against the fate, the pain that happened, bitter tears,

all he struggled, kai was like the unnamed man just a ghost destined to be forgotten.

"NO!" Was a roar that was born from the bottom of his soul.

He was not afraid to die but he was afraid of being forgotten, of being nothing, that there was no proof of his existence ... that means that he was just a 'man without a name'.

Kai made a decision the moon shone in the sky, Kai made an oath in his heart, with the moon as a witness made a proclamation to the world.

"I will be remembered, no matter how"

No matter if he was crazy or not, it did not matter if the war was real, he would be remembered even if it were for a second he would leave his mark on history, as a hero or as a villain.

The next day kai made a request to the family for more money had spent a small fortune in the investigation of the symbols,

They never responded, not long after the servants of the house were dismissed, now kai had lost his only financial support but still had Something, the house. When Kai recovered the family's ancestral home was sunk in debt, spent a lot of money recovering the papers and repairing the house.

It's ironic that this desolate old building was the only place I could call home and now I would lose it too, but Kai also won something there were no more dreams, nightmares, voices or episodes of memory , you could say that he had 'healed' Of the curse

the only thing that bothered him was a the thorn in his heart Is it real? He still had that inner voice that doubted whether he was crazy or not.

Countdown 9 months 20 days.

A day looking for something to sell, like an antiquity or a relic kai came to the basement, painted on the floor remained the symbol of 'the rune of 6 moons' it could be said that kai had solved all the mysteries except 'this' did not know what Represented and there were no more clues to follow

"Glup, glup" kai was concentrating on studying the symbol until a sound woke him from the trance

Only illuminated by a candle, the sound of falling water was heard with perfect clarity, Kai closed his eyes and could only hear the sound of his breath, felt a drip of water and a cool breeze that rose up his legs.

“Eh?”

The sound came under the floor, Kai leaned his face against the wooden floor and could hear the sound more clearly in addition the cold air that penetrated the wood and came to him, confirmed his suspicions.

"A hidden room"

With nothing to lose look for an ax and destroyed the floor, the old house of the family had not been used in years the last time was his great grandfather during the campaign of the white gold war,

when he was small he heard that it was forbidden to name that part Of the story was something like a taboo in the family, after destroying half of the floor kai found a hidden room.

In the room there was an old radio transmitter, a map with several marked points, several ancient weapons, housing elements and dozens of sealed wooden boxes. The reason for the taboo era to speak of Kai's great-grandfather was that he was a; A thief, a terrorist and a murderer, had kidnapped, tortured and murdered many people in search of white gold was a cruel, ruthless and greedy person, In the end, his own son handed him over to the government, making a deal on the one part the Shares of the white gold market.

But even when they captured him and executed they could never recover all the loot, they could only find 50% of everything stolen, the old man had taken the secret of the blood treasure to the grave in the lieng family there was a legend that the stolen booty Was hidden in the last place they would wait, that was the only thing the old man said before he died ... and he was right.

The researchers never expected the treasure to be hidden right in front of them, in the family home the most obvious place, it was not nearly 100 years after kai found the lost treasure of the family.

The weapons were useless were old with rotten wood and gunpowder that does not explode, with an iron stick kai checked the boxes one by one inside had; Old money that no longer served, porcelain vases and games, jewelry, clothing, liquor, supplies, paintings, some antiques and in the background there was a metal covered box with a red character engraved on it, after fighting over an hour to open it kai found ... metal.

No, it was not metal they were gold bullion of 500 grams there was a box full of them after counting all the ingots were 100 ingots of 500 grams a true fortune and in the same box a small bag with white milky stones.

"White gold ..." Kai murmured.

White gold was a guilty stone of the great gold rush and the greed-driven 'white gold war' during the generation of kai's great-grandfather near the earth passed an asteroid that collided with the atmosphere and fragmented into Thousands of pieces, these fragments contained crystals that have extraordinary properties; have  5 times the density of the diamond, were superconductors, was composed of an element that could function as a substitute for nuclear material without radiation residues.

Kai had seen them in history books and on the internet but never believed that a handful of them would fall into his hands, if he sold the crystals he would earn enough money to crush the lieng family but that too would bring many problems,

for his goals the ingots Gold was enough, If it had been someone else would be jumping for joy but kai was not normal and had other concerns, he knew that the world was coming to an end that fortune was only a means to meet their goals and also distrusted it was 'real' ... Was too perfect, could not rule out the fact that it was all part of his madness.

"Arg ..." he suddenly felt a pain, the ring that always had the 'amulet' that the grandfather had given him was shining and emitting waves of heat.

Near the one on a wall made of stone appeared a strange symbol that glowed resonating with the ring, as if it were driven by a supernatural force the kai body was dragged by the ring until make contact with the wall, when both the symbol and the Ring were touched the room was covered by a blinding light.

"Clang clang clang"

The wall emitted a crashing metal sound and for a minute the room shook as the center of an earthquake, the light symbol changed shape just like a labyrinth was changing until there was only one circle of light,

the ring in the kai shine hand With more intensity and the engraved symbols changed, kai put the ring on the circle of light.

"Ka-cha, clang, clang, clang ..." the room shook harder until cracks appeared plowing through the floor as if it were on the verge of collapse, the circle of light disappears, the quake ceased and the wall opened in 2, revealing another hidden room.
