Chapter 6 - The Talking Bracelet (1/2)
After getting home with his soaked body, Jason was just about to sneak in to avoid being seen by Hannah who will tell on him the moment she saw him but he was still unable to get past the gaze of the eagle unnoticed.
”And where do you think you are doing, am going to tell mother that you are walking in with that wet body of yours,” said Hannah as she stared at Jason.
”Shh, keep it down, I just went to wash off after training and couldn't have the time to clean up since it was already getting late” replied Jason as he tried to explain things to her.
”You are lucky I am in a good mood today else I would have told on you, quick go change before mother sees you like this,” said Hannah.
With a smile on his face, Jason peeks her on the cheek before going to change his clothes. Taking the bracelet out to give it a closer look, Jason was still unable to figure what use it has but decided to keep it since it could produce a mirage, it may be a treasure.
The next morning an announcement was made by the fox family concerning those that want to get the job will have to participate in a tournament and the three lucky winners will be the ones working for them.
In the tent, the three were having their meal after Jason has returned from his training.
”There is no way you are joining that tournament big brother” protested Hannah.
”What is the difference since it is what I will have to do later after been selected” replied Jason.
”Mother please say something,” said Hannah as she turned to her mother for help.
”Sigh, Jason before you think of joining the tournament, do you know any martial art that you are going to use in the tournament,” asked Clara.
”Not yet mother, but I still have enough time to master the phantom kick. I believe with it, I will be able to win the tournament” replied Jason as he crunches his hand into a fist.
”Do you think it is easy to learn a martial art technique that easily?” asked Clara as she shakes her head in helplessness.
”Well I don't have to master it completely, just a little grip should be enough as long as I catch my opponent off guide, then the rest should be up to my powerful kick” replied Jason with a smile on his face.
”Your legs are not even strong enough for you to practice the technique and you want to use little of it might win a fight, what a joke,” said Clara as she to her room.
Seeing her mother walking out, Hannah was speechless that even their mother couldn't talk him out of it.
”Big brother I tell you, it better you stop this else if you were to get injured, don't expect me to sit by your bed while giving you treatment,” said Hannah.
”I am sorry little sister but you see, my mind is already made up since it is the only way I can fend for you and mother” replied Jason.
”I am not saying anything,” said Hannah as she also walks out.
”I guess I Will have to practice the phantom kick ahead of time if I want to get a hack of how to use the technique” Jason mutter to himself before walking out of the tent as he heads deep into the woods for some practice but this time around, he plans to practice the phantom kick.
”This should be far enough to avoid being a disturbance to others,” said Jason as he took out the manual for practicing the phantom kick and begin to read it thoroughly before keeping it back into his pocket and begin to do according to what was writing on it.
