(Part 11)

Zachariah glancing at him from the corner of his eye walked over, "And, what makes you think you can tackle the both of us?" His glare deathly, Xavier grinned.

Heber flinching stepped back.

Xavier however, stepping forward stood before Zachariah with his head held high. Not even the slightest bit of intimidated.

Aigou and Heber on the contrary, blinked their eyes. "Wow, what height difference." Heber muttered fascinated.

"Yeah, this one is even shorter than Isa." Aigou agreed.

"I wonder what would happen if they faced each other head on." Heber added.

"Exciting hun, let's sit down and watch." Aigou invited. His behavior instantly changing.

"Yeah, let's do it." Heber agreed.

The two of them not caring about their situation at all, sat on the path's side staring at Zachariah and Xavier as if enjoying a movie. Xavier curved his lips. "I guess it over confidence." he replied egoistically to Zachariah's prior question.

"Stop! Big guy!" Orion shrieked, still dangling on Haruf shoulder. In the end, he finally lost hanging limp. "Put me down will you senior Haruf?" Orion uttered politely dropping all his energy.

"Haha!!" Haruf on the contrary laughed entertained, "And why should I? I am really enjoying myself here. To think you would be so light? I should've checked that beforehand."

Poseidon and Ryan who stood before the two of them witnessed their senseless squabble with their mouths agape.

"Okay…" Ryan uttered senseless.

Even though, the two of them had their path open. None amongst the two could step a single foot forward.

"Augh~" Orion dangled on Haruf's back in disbelief.

Haruf suddenly tracing Poseidon and Ryan questioned, "Oh, and why aren't you running now? Won't you be late?"

"Late my foot!" Ryan thought taken aback.

"Um… if you keep following us like this it would surely trouble us. Why don't you head before us?" Poseidon offered sincerely.

Orion twitched his brow. "Tch, you rascals. How dare you order us? Can't you just move on? Or do you want me to break your bones or two?" he uttered vexed.

Poseidon slightly annoyed smiled beside Ryan who grabbed his bat ready to blow off Orion's head. "Very well then, please follow behind and take care of us. Make sure nobody tries to rob us or block us off." he ordered instead. "After all, bodyguards are better at stuff like these aren't I right?" he mocked.

"If not then servants running after their masters, title will suit you best." Ryan sneered disdainfully running ahead. Hearing them Orion stood up over Haruf's back agitated, "What the hell did you say?!" "Let me down Haruf!" he struggled, "I'll cut their pretty tongues off those rascals. Here I thought they would've reflected upon themselves, instead they have become even more impudent! Put me down!"

Haruf laughed aloud, "Haha!"

Putting Orion down, he patted his head before he could follow Ryan and Poseidon. "Let them go. They are just making us angry. Let's follow them. I know they mean no harm." he said.

Orion clenched his fists, gritting furiously, "I'll execute all of them!!"

Gabriel standing before Isa and Elias clicked his tongue.

"Yo! It's you alone here?" Elias waved. A caring smile resting his face.

"Are you blind or something? And what if it's only me? You got a problem with that?" Gabriel replied irritated. 

Isa frowning threw his ball in midair catching it again, "No problem at all… but I realized that you really underestimated the two of us, standing here alone, you insolent brat."

Gabriel twitched his brow, "Like the hell I said are you blind?!" Turning around he looked at the empty path behind him. His expression instantly dampening.

"Pft!" Elias chuckled. "Rather than blind, it looks like you are quite unaware yourself, Haha…" he wiped his tears amused.

Gabriel stunned searched left and right. "Huh?! Where the hell did that midget go?" he thought remembering Adam who usually runs off anywhere, anytime on his own accord.  "That runt!" he uttered vexed.

"But still whether alone or together. You cannot pass from here." Elias threatened.

Gabriel abruptly grinned, "Oh~ is that so? Like hell you can stop me! I'll make sure you tremble in fear!" Heading back he tossed the ball in midair ready to deliver it however at that instant a ball wheezing dangerously was aimed at Gabriel's back. Sensing a threat Gabriel turned around however, before him a familiar figure leapt forward.

His hairs blazing golden like the shining sun with emerald green eyes, his grin enthralled than ever before. He pulled the bat up and SLAM!! Went the ball. Right past Elias and then Isa's ear in a split second, crashing on the tree behind with a large Bang! Isa smirked. 

"AHAHA! HAHA! A shocking four it is! How's that?" Adam cheered raising his bat up. "Pretty seniors, I suggest you to keep a hold on yourselves. Sera, Sera asked him to take care of me? How dare you even think of touching him?" he pointed his bat menacingly.

"Ah… it's you." Recognizing Isa, Adam clicked his tongue. "Right, you are that same wannabe king, Kenzo despises. Too bad he isn't here. But one thing's for sure. Be it King of Pakistan or Japan. I would never vote for you. I reckon, the moment you step on the throne our government and country is going to take a sadistic way to downfall." he commented paradoxically.

Isa upon his comment frowned beside Elias who chuckled.

Turning around Adam beamed at Gabriel (Sparkles emitting the background), "I am right on time aren't I Riel, Riel?"

Gabriel smirking instantly smacked his head.

"Ouch! That hurts!" Adam cried, "What the?! I just saved you now didn't I?"

"Where the hell were you?!" Gabriel showed his fists pissed.

Adam gulped, "Um… by- th-e apricot tree…?" "Look." he showed opening his jacket, inside which apricots hung like show pieces.

"Pft! Haha!!" Elias laughed grabbing his stomach beside Isa who picked his ball back up again while Gabriel on the other hand who was too puzzled to even comprehend stood speechless.

"Huff! Huff! Huff! I bet this is it!" Ezekiel pointed at the path before him grabbing his knees.

Feng wiping his sweat observed. His expression suddenly turning into a bothered one, "You little rascal, this should better be the right way or else…"

"Oh, come on. Just take a look." Ezekiel tugged Feng's shoulder, pulling him towards a sign board which read 'Central headquarters to the right' very clearly.

"See? Appeased enough?" Ezekiel asked, "Geez, I might be bad at studies but not that bad. Quit doubting my reading skills."

"Alright, alright…" Feng replied. Suddenly loud voices of chatter and clicking of pictures were heard. "Huh?" the two of them looked at each other puzzled.

Walking ahead, they traced a figure sitting in the garden drinking tea grandiosely while urrounding him a reporter and multiple camera men clicked tons of pictures one after another.

"As per the record of 'Srour' family business which has more than thirty nine branches all across the globe. What kind of investment would you like to make this time in turn earning what amount of revenue? As the next sole-heir to the family fortune 'Sir, Nagi Srour' how do you think this development will affect the overall condition and state of the Srour Multi-national Company? What benefits and drawbacks will it bring alongside it?" the woman reporter questioned shifting the mic towards the figure.

Dark brown hairs neatly combed to a side the young man wearing a white suit pushed his glasses up. "First of all…" he spoke.

Feng and Ezekiel jaw dropped stared at each other. "Isn't he…?" Feng uttered halting amid his sentence as Ezekiel continued, "A media conference!?"

Sensing the two's arrival Nagi smirked, "That's all for today I guess. Let's continue tomorrow." "It seems like I have some honorable guests today with me. Let me treat them with utmost hospitality." he stood up. 

The reporters agreeing soon left as Kazuna who sat on the stairs, closed his book.

"Very well then. Looks like you finally stumbled your way here." Nagi smirked walking over to Feng and Ezekiel.

Feng rolled his eyes, "That's because this idoit kept pointing towards the wrong path."

Ezekiel twitched his brow annoyed.

"Haha!" Nagi sneered, "Not that it's his fault."

Feng immediately realizing gasped, "Don't tell me…?"

"Of course. The boards were all mixed up. No wonder you stumbled." Kazuna glared.

Veins popping on Ezekiel's head he raised his brow vexed, "So it was you hun? Tch making fun of me."

Kazuna glared. Grasping his bat he stood beside Nagi.

Ezekiel however smirked. Keeping his hand on his hairs, his figure began to change. Kazuna frowned while Nagi stared seriously. Changing into a familiar appearance. His hairs turning blue fluttered with red highlights while his eyes blazed crimson red, Ezekiel whispered, "Hehe… teasing me again aren't you? Little Kazu, Kazu?"
