Chapter 2 - Drifting in Chaos

Old Geez looked to the busy villager on the shore, and he shouted "Hey be faster, what do you think you're doing huh! any moment a pirate will come here. We must make sure to be prepared!"

"Yes, Old Geezer! It will be done in an hour" shouted one of the villagers. Many of them helped to transfer all of the fish that caught in the cart, to transfer it to the village.

"Good Zito and Silo will come with me to announce the Evacuation Plan that we created! Let's Go!" Old Geez picks the two who are fast enough to run and spread the news.

"Yes, Old Chief!" unanimously answer the twin brothers.

The three of them ran to the village.

"You two will spread the news but keep it in an organized manner, We don't want to make the villagers run in a panic. It will make the situation worse, use all of the methods we create in the meeting. Do you remember it? You two with a knucklehead!?" Old Geez looks to the two who keep running beside him.

"Yes Old Chief!" the two answered at the same time, Old Geez glanced at the two of them with a suspicious look.

"Hope so.." the old Geez just gave a depressing sigh.

The three of them split in a three-way direction to spread the news and Old Geez after telling everyone who he passed by the news.

He ran to the Big Hut of Riz, shouting "Riz!! Did you arrange all of your things and clothes, Where is little shi--" and was interrupted again by a shout of little jas.

"You Old Geezer, I am not a Shit!" Old Geez laughed while using a palm to the incoming punch of the little girl, when the punch was blocked he let the little girl hang by gripping gently to its little fist. "Ahhh Let go! You Big Shit!"

Little jas tried to bite the hand of this Old man but to no avail, Old Geez laughed it out and teased the little girl by swinging her back and forth.

Tom emerged from the open door and looked at the two of them and smiled "What is the situation, Old Chief?"

"Well we spread the news, We are currently in the second phase of the Evacuation plan. Pick everything that is needed and leave the rest. We must use the remaining time to gather everyone so that we can cope up with an unexpected situation." Old Geez answered while he put down the little girl who was kicking his leg to let out her frustration.

You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.

Tom looks at the vast forest in the back of the village and firm his conviction and enters the hut again.

Old Geez looked at the little girl and squatted to talk seriously to the little girl.

"Hey little Jas, listen" the little girl stopped her barrage of kicks to the legs of the Old Shit and listened when she felt the serious look of the Old Geezer.

Old Geez smiled and pat the head of the little girl "I know that you know what we are doing, you are a smart girl. In every situation you must listen to your mother and never leave her side, you understand?"

The little jas was pissed when Old Geezer pats her head but nodded her head "I will!"

"Good, pinky swear?" Old Geezer laugh and raise his full of callous and rough hand and pull the pinky of the little girl with his pinky "You must swear and never break it, the vast sea is the judge"

"Uhuh" nodded the little girl and smiled "pinky swear!" and laugh while swinging her hands to make their hands dance in rhythm with her laughter.

Inside of the Hut of Mother Riz

Tom arranges all of the things that will be needed and categorizes it according to its uses while ignoring the others that are not needed.

in that other room lies Mother Riz, putting dry clothes on Dan.

She looks at the face of this child, he's not that handsome but he has a charm that you want to look at in his peaceful sleep, short black hair and a small pointy nose.

She was interrupted by the squeaking sound of the door "Aunty Riz we need to leave immediately so that we can help tidy and organize the people to the evacuation site. I packed all the things that we might need and the food in the cold storage was packed up by Old Chief, he took little jas with him."

Tom enters the room and puts the quilt and blanket, placing Dan there and rolls it so Dan will be covered by it and heated his low-temperature body.

Then he tied it up on his back so that he could pick up the other things he arranged. After making sure that the child would not be in an uncomfortable position he picked up the other things.

Mother Riz opened a drawer with a rusty key and took a cauldron that was made of clay covered by red satin clothes.

The cauldron was closed tightly by a rope made from the bark of a thousand years old oak tree.

She carefully put it in a basket and clung it to her arm.

Tom looked at the basket and in his eyes had an inquiring look "Aunty --"

Before Tom could ask, Mother Riz ignored him and exited the big hut without looking back "Let's Go, Everyone needs us to lead them to the forest."

"Ahh Yes, Aunty!" Tom hurriedly closed the door and looked at the empty big hut.

He ran to the back of Mother Riz while venturing to the gathering point before entering the forest where the evacuation site, that place was accidentally found by one of the villagers while hunting.

Dan, who doesn't know what is happening around him, is drifting in his consciousness.

His mind is full of blurry thoughts and memories that he doesn't know but he feels it's familiarity, like he personally experienced it but he knew that he didn't own that.

All he knows is that his clarity is quite blurry and he feels that something is attracting him to the path ahead he is drifting to.

Something that will complete him but can't get, can feel but can't see, it's calling him but it's going away from him.

He didn't know how long this chasing would stop but he stretched his hand to get it, but he lost all of his clarity.

One question remains in his thoughts 'Did I get it?"
