21 Roses pas (2/2)

”bastard! Just who was it?! Who saved her?!” a 16-year-old golden-haired female child angerly shouted. This girl was Frosh's eldest daughter Rona.

Rona was a pampered kid who sought attention. and because of her ambitious nature, she desired Sect master's seat. But now, all these seem to be impossible to her. The sole reason was her youngest sister. Rona felt threaten of this youngest sister.

In a paranoid mood, Rona talked herself: ”no! no! no! I should do something. She would take everything from me!

But what should I do?!”

At this point, she tightly held her hair: ”think! think! those bastards failed... I should ask other.

No, no, no! if they also failed?

What should I do? What should I do?”

Crazily, still grasping her hair, Rona started stomping on the ground wildl: ”what to do? what to do?!”

soon She noticed, she killed an ant by stomping over it: ”I killed it?...I killed it! Yes, I killed it!

Then, then...I should kill her myself just like this ant!”

Suddenly all the craziness and anxiety vanished. Rona looked calm, and in a gentle tone she said: ”for this sister's happiness you have to die Youngest Sister.”

*CLINK!*

Suddenly, a Vass breaking sound came from outside of Rona's room. Rona loudly asked: ”whose there?!”

Hearing the rapid footsteps sound, Rona unsheathed her sword and anxiously ran out of her room.

Not able to find out who it was, Rona ran towards her youngest sister room. Absurdly there weren't any people within the whole Villa beside Rona, Eaves-dropper and the baby princess.

As Rona just entered the baby princess's room, she saw the Eaves-dropper.

The Eaves-dropper was a shoulder-length black-haired young maid, and Rona knew this maid. She was her mother's maid, Lily.

Holding the baby princess with her hands, Lily jumped down from the window. The window was on two floors' Hight.

”Lily! Wait there! I order you to wait!” Rona pursued.

The cat and the mouse race longed for a while. Lily reached at a rivers end, and she put the baby princess in a wooden basket. Then she let the wooden basket stream along the river.

[Author: wooden-basket?! From where did she pull it?!]

The baby princess was in an injured state!This thing Lily didn't notice because of tension and the shortage of time.

In a bit, the basket travelled far and couldn't be seen. Lily sighed.

Hearing some noises at her back, Lily took a healing pill and then made a large and a deep cut on her palm with a sharp knife. Blood spurt out!

Lily covered the knife with her blood and threw it in streaming direction. Then she squatted down and started to wash her hands in the streaming river.

It wasn't that she was not feeling the pain, but she was bearing it. She was putting an act, An act which could decide her life or death.

Though Rona was younger than Lily, however as a cultivator Rona was way stronger than Lily.

Finally, Rona reached this place. Lily stood up, and surprisingly there wasn't a cut on her hand. The healing pill sure did its work.

Rona couldn't see the baby princess, she calmly asked, but others could feel anger in her voice: ”where is she?”

Lily put a sad look and said: ”I..I..”

Rona asked once again, and her anger was at the limit: ”where, is, she?”

Lily looked as she was hurt and she shouted: ”I Killed her!”

Rona silently looked at her. She found lite blood strains on Lily's hand and blood trails in the river.

The situation was tallying to Lily's words. Rona opened her mouth: ”Then why did you run?”

”if I didn't run, you would have killed me for 'listening things which I shouldn't have listened'This was the only way I could think of to save my life, andI don't want to get on your bad side”, Lily replied.

Rona was pleased with Lily's answer, yet she didn't show any change in her facial expressions. Rona sneered: ”Humph! You think I won't kill you?”

Lily replied: ”I don't know... I am risking.”

Rona smiled: ”you, failed.” Within a fraction of second, Rona inserted the sword into Lily's chest.

'Shock' was written all over Lily face, she didn't think she would be killed just like that.

Lily was losing blood. She couldn't feel a thing, as she already lost the sensation. However, She smiled towards Rona, then she spoke putting all her efforts: ”I... lost... take care.”

Lily's legs gave in. She fell down.

...

Carrying the baby princess, the wooden basket reached the lake. As the wooden-basket entered the lake, a female baby dropped into the wooden-basket from out of nowhere.

Now there were two baby princesses within the basket. But both were injured.

Yes, it's as you guessed. The Dropped one was Molly, and other is Rose.

Molly was injured from fall, and Rose was injured due to uncaringly sharp movements of Lily during 'cat and a mouse chase'.

Riza was cleaning the wound within the lake. She Found these injured girls. She treated their injuries and healed them. Then she took them away.

...…

several years later...Within the spear sect

During a night. Inside Riza's house.

This medium sized house was allotted to Riza by spear sect, as she was an elder in the sect.

Molly, Rose, both were 16 years old now. They both were sleeping together in their room.

In the middle of the night, Rose woke up. Nature was calling her, so she went to the toilet.

*Thud!*

Coming back from the bathroom, she heard a sound from her master's room.

Riza's room door was open, Rose directly entered it. Soon she found her master lying on the floor, and now Rose knew what the sound before she heard was.

”Master!” Rose reached her master and nervously called. And seeing her master pale and sensitive face, she started to fell unease.

Anxiously Rose shook Riza gently: ”Master? Are you all right?”

Riza didn't show any response. She still had a painful appearance.

Rose wanted to call Molly, and just as she was going to, she saw a white-haired muscular old man appearing in the room. This old man was Sam's grandfather Ben.

”Sorry for being late Riza. The sect sure increased guards, intruding in...” Ben stopped blathering when he noticed Riza lying down.

Ben instantly appeared beside Riza.

Rose who was silent till now vigilantly opened her mouth, as she saw Ben appearing near her master: ”who are you?Move away from my master!”

Ben said: ”I am your Master's friend”. Then he tried to lift Riza.

To Rose, ben was a suspicious guy. And seeing this suspicious guy trying to touch her master, Rose threw a powerful kick: ”stop!”

”ah... I don't have time for this.”Ben dodged the kick and knocked-out Rose with a chop on her neck.
