*Meanwhile in the Philippines *
'Datu!!! Si Shanaya ! She went to train with the soldiers AGAIN ' one of the aliping namamahay said
'That girl when will she learn she will one day marry one of our neighboring Datus sons ' my dad said then face palmed he was busy managing the soldiers.
Running to the forest with all my might jumping on stones grabbed the vine , swung outside of the cliff and the the sun greeted me. What an amazing view . this is the land i want to protect i refuse to be someones offering i will not bow down to a person i don't choose i know myself and i will achieve my goal with my own strength . Giving my all for this land for prosperity and peace.
' So who's next?' i said while looking at the crowd looking at the men on the ground, what can i do i have my fathers genes one of the greatest chiefs ever ,born to be a warrior .
'SHANAYA!'i recognize that voice and my brain went uh-oh here we go again . 'stop right there young lady how many times do i have to tell you dont crush our warriors pride anymore than this ' my father said who was near now to me in a whispering way.
'Papa this is what you called warrior? if they cant even beat one girl how can they protect our tribe . WE are surrounded by other tribe who wants our land Papa why not let me train with them at this rate we can wi-'
'Nonsense.!' my father cut me off 'we dont need to fight if we can talk it out and establish an agreement'
'And what ? make me as a sacrifice?!' i said angrily and in disbelief
' if we can avoid bloodshed ,make our peoples anxiety and fear of war go away then i will , it is our duty as the head family of our tribe . ' papa said trying to soothe me
' where is the chief i once knew the pride of tribe? the chief who is fearless to even beat a bear?'
' believe me Shanaya ive been on the battlefield too many times and i dont want our young ones to even see that '
i know it but ' i cant accept that we will just bow down to them and make me a sacrifice i will choose my own future ' i sprinted out of that place after saying my stand every word emphasized . i wonder in this world is there someone who has the same resolve as me ? who can sympathize who i can talk to . *sniff* aaah stop crying shanaya you are a woman with a strong heart and will .
"Whats gonna happen? whats in store for me? God how will my future unfold?" both said unknowingly in different places and time zones and at the same time.
