Chapter 7

When Rai opened his eyes, he was in his bedroom, "The city that shines the brightest..." he thought to himself, as he closed his heavy eyes once more.

--------------------------------

Rai woke up to a familiar voice it was his father, but his voice was muffled. What is he saying? Rai sat up and stretched, his bones cracking at almost every joint, he got up and walked towards the door and leaned against it trying to hear the conversation between his father and the unknown man. "He seems to be fine but maybe we should bring him in to run some tests, just to be sure," said the unknown voice, based on what he said Rai assumed he was a doctor, "Very well then when he wakes up we'll bring him in" agreed Jiao-long. "Tests? I don't need any tests!" Rai thought to himself angrily, " What I NEED to do is find out what that damn lizard meant by the city that shines the brightest" he said walking towards the window. The window in Rai's bedroom was facing the backyard which made the view like something you would see at some resort, magnificent is the only word to describe it. Rai heard the creaking sound of the door as Rui walked in, "You're awake I see" Rui said while smiling gently. Rai looked at him with a blank expression, then his eyes lit up, "Have you ever heard of the city that shines the brightest" he asked as he looked at Rui with an expectant gaze, Rui was startled by the sudden change in attitude, "Well do you" Rai asked with his head tilted, "The city that shines the brightest" Rui repeated thoughtfully. And almost as if a light bulb appeared on top of his head Rui said "That would probably be Guang City", "Guang City?" Rai questioned, "Yes, because Guang means light or glory", "He's right!" Rai thought. "May I ask why you wanted to know that?" Rui asked with his eyebrow raised, Rai furrowed his eyebrows, "No you may not!" he said pushing Rui out the door, slamming and locking it afterward. Rai needed to know exactly how far away Guang City was, for that he had to cut the acting and showcase the reason why some called him the smartest of his time.
