Lista's story.

  LANCE

I couldn't say anything. All words of protests and complains plugging in my brain flushed, drain out by just a few words. 

"Hey, kid. This will be a long ride. Wanna hear some interesting stories about how we meet with your Dad?" 

"I've heard enough." His mouth formed a small o. 

"Not everything kid. Okay, let's rewind. Rewind, rewind, rewind. This story may not make sense to you but it's evidently connected to that Seeker of yours. And the long history as to why he was chosen as the 'Seeker'." He clearly emphasized the word 'Seeker'. He lean towards the driver's seat.

"Can you pull over to that pizza store? Yep, yep. There."  He smack Dad's arm, whose sitting without moving on my right. "And you, buy your son one box of pizza slice and sodas will you?" 

My Dad, moved to the driver's seat in robotic motion. I still cringed at his black sunken eyes. Lista clapped his hand for attention.
