Tales Of The Supremes 17 The Young Abdula 2

Their kingdom is located in the wilderness and far from the neighboring kingdom, and they exist independently. So, reinforcement is impossible.

Datu Agueo gathered his men in secret whilst Abdula was preparing for the battle.

"Men, make sure to protect Abdula. I will draw the attention of the beasts. Escape with the young Datu and the citizens," said Datu Agueo, gruffly.

His men nodded slightly not to a rose suspicion.

"Liwayway protect our citizens here. When you hear my signals, leave immediately and never looked back," Datu Agueo hugged her for the last time.

"Be careful elder brother. Look closely to my nephew." Liwayway whispered. The departure of the father and son made her heartache. Even if she wants to aid them, the citizens need someone to lead them.

Her attention was caught by children who were crying. They were the children who witness the cruel battle outside. Their mother hugged them tightly and told something she couldn't hear. Her resolves were strengthened by the sight. She gazed to the book in her hand and muttered under her breathe, "My sister-in-law, I hope you're right."

…

Flickering light danced around the whole kingdom. Shouts and cries created mournful melodies while the warriors waltz with desperation.

Fire engulfed the entire place.

As the strongest man in their tribe, Datu Agueo led his army to defend their land.

Simultaneous earthly energy lit up as a cloudy-like color coated the warriors.

There were only thirty true warriors among the army, including the Datu and the elders.

The Datu confront the giant hawk.

"White cloud waves!" With a swung in his sword, he sent waves of attack to the hawk, but the giant hawk just takes a scratch. His face became grim. That's the powerful technique he has in his sleeves. He launched another attack, and another, but it does not seem to hurt the giant hawk.

His enemy waved its wings. He tried to defend, but it was just for naught. He was sent flying.

His earthly energy became dull. He breathed heavily as he was soaked by his perspiration.

Abdula who was fighting saw how his father just managed to scratch the giant hawk with his strongest technique.

The battle dragged on. Wounds after wounds were visible to Abdula's body, but he doesn't seem like to back off. His tattered clothes soaked by the blood of the beasts and his.

Datu Agueo gave his sign to retreat.

By the same time, the hawk gathered his energy to his mouth. Even in a distance, Abdula felt the immense pressure. He cautiously searched the origin of such powerful energy. Surveying his surrounding, the corner of his eyes caught a figure of the giant hawk facing a familiar figure.

'Oh no! my father!' Abdula ran as fast as he can towards his father.

His father exhausted his energy already. He doesn't have any more energy to defend himself.

The elite warriors were caught off guard to his action. They couldn't stop Abdula as he was far away already.

"Nooo!" The Datu shouted as he saw his son dashed towards his direction. He wanted to stop his son, but Abdula turned deaf ears to him.

The warriors continued their pursuit to Abdula even if the retreat order had already been given.

Abdula gathered all his energy, forming a circle in front of him to defend from the powerful might of the hawk. A puny cloudy-like light coated his entire body. With just his mere energy, he was sent flying, stumbling heavily to the ground. He spouted a mouthful of blood.

Datu Agueo ran at his side. His eyes were full of despair.

The hawk does not seem to give them a break. It sent another attack.

Gus.h.i.+ng energy was closing its distance towards the duo. Datu Agueo and Abdula couldn't dodge it in time.

A powerful blast can be seen. The b.l.o.o.d.y elders and wounded warriors felt dazed as their leaders engulfed by the enemy's energy.

The light slowly faded out.

They saw an exhausted young man and the b.l.o.o.d.y Datu taking a stand. They heaved a sigh of relief. Without wasting any more time, they dashed towards the duo to save them, but the giant hawk blast off another attack.

"We're too late!" The warrior exclaimed grimly. His eyes were full of despair.

Abdula felt that it was their end. He glanced at his father with mix emotions as his father did the same. Datu Agueo immediately faced the enemy, facing his back to his son.

Datu Agueo call forth his might, but the energy he exuded was chaotic.

Abdula widened his eyes in despair. He knew what that chaotic energy means.

Self-destroy!

'Heaven! Guardians! I know you're just around. Please help my father!' Abdula thought heartily as his tears fall. There's no way out for them anymore. He just hoped that his faith was enough to draw the attention of guardians.

Abdula closed his eyes not wanting to see the next thing that will happen.

…

Liwayway held the book tight on her hands. She hugged it tightly as if her life depends on it. 'My sister-in-law, I hope you're right.'

The book contains some information about guardians. The feather on her nephew was the same feather as described by the book. The book with the feather was found inside a ruin by the great great grandfather of her sister-in-law, but instead of giving the book to Abdula, her sister-in-law decided to gift it to her.

She gazed at the southern wall of the palace, but her gaze seemed like to pa.s.s through to the horizon.

"Guardians of the southern land, please aid my nephew and my elder brother." She cried under her breathe. Her grasped to the book tighten.

…

In the southern land

The tiny golden wall that Tala had pa.s.sed through emitted a flickering light again.

…

Datu Agueo's tears fell. Not for himself, but for his son.

Abdula felt the chaotic energy of his father and the destructive energy of his father.

A moment later, Abdula knitted his eyebrows in confusion. The destructive energy of the enemy hasn't arrived, and the chaotic energy of his father seemed to vanish. He opened his eyes and was perplexed seeing the dead giant hawk in front of him as its body was slowly reduced to smithereens.

His father was rooted in front of him while the army of their kingdom was in a daze. His knitted brows deepen. All of them were in dazed while looking up above him. He then looked up.

His eyes wide open as his jaw dropped. He couldn't utter any words.

Datu Agueo staggered to his feet. He couldn't move nor produce a sound. He stood there like a statue. Abdula was no far from him.

A young lady with a pair of golden translucent wings spread above Abdula. She emitted golden light that causes everyone to barely saw her face.

The lady waved her left hand and formed an unknown hand gesture. Under her, a circle of blue light was formed with mysterious writings and spread in an unimaginable speed.

It pa.s.ses through them, but they didn't feel uncomfortable. It just feels like winds pa.s.s through them.

Without outer injuries, the beasts fall dead.

The lady waved her left hand again. This time, the circle was green. The energy that pa.s.ses through them, heal their injuries.

"A Guardian!" Abdula exclaimed.
