8 Determination

Both of them saw the deep look of hatred in the little boys eyes and got a little intimidated.

" hey mate lets get out of here" said Evans

" yeah ..... i dont want to get into any trouble in our first trip here " replied Dominic

"hey kid you cant blame us cause its your fault for being weak so blame it in your inabilities"

saying this, both of them walked back the way they came and left

Lurid watched them leave and didnt say anything due to the pain in his back. the of Dominic kept repeating in his mind ' its your fault for being weak so blame it in your inabilities ' he stood up with great difficulties and muttered to himself

" i need strength,.... i dont want to be humiliated like this ever again " he had a slight look of craze in his Emerald eyes.

Lurid was usually a person filled with pride . but this incident only increased it in the right way he vowed he would never feel defeat like this again

"sigh... at least the little kitten got away safely"

he slowly but steadily strode back through the forest back to the tree he was sitting in collected his stuff and went back to the inn.

noon

<Aberforth POV>

'a nice and peaceful day what could go wrong '

thought a man In the hogs inn he stood behind the counter and over saw his waitress serve his people food .

" well the business is great but we're that lad "muttered to himself

then I saw Lurid walking into the inn nearly crashing into a house elf ( A/u and yes they have house elves ) with a face of self pity and hatred.

I walk up to him and ask with concern

" what happen lad ? are you hurt somewhere "

he looks up to me with his face filled with determination and a tinge of hatred in his eyes and says

" I want to get strong "

Aberforth walked Lurid up the stairs to his room. it was warm with a red carpet with a portrait of a beautiful woman on the other side of the wall it also had a study and self filled with ancient books .

he strod to a near by chair and sat face to face with Lurid and asked

" well care to explain what happened to you? "

Lurid after a little hesitation told him the entire story.

" what do you want to do ? asked Aberforth .

he had a call face but if one sees closely you you find anger burning in his eyes.

Lurid saw this and felt warm in his heart.

he knew that his Father will always stand by his side right or wrong.

he looks into his fathers eyes and said

" I want to become strong so ill never face a humiliation like ever again "

Aberforth saw this and felt happy in his heart but also felt weary as there was a thirst for power in Lurids eye sand thought

' we'll he's just a child he will get over it ....'

alright Lurid but my training is hard, very hard but I promise you that you will be strong lad .

what do you "

I ask him for his consent

" alright dad I'll do it " Lurid says with determined voice a bit bit childish and cute .
