Bow

"Three."

Someone had already shouted "Three", but it seemed like someone was stuck in his throat and he could not speak further.

All the soldiers were not aiming their rifles at her now. They merely stuck their heads out and stared at An'an dazedly.

She was… the Blood Eagle's… fiancée?

Everyone knew about the Blood Eagle. He was a legend in the military. But the Blood Eagle was an aimless child who wandered on the streets.

He was not as fortunate as any of them.

They could wear military clothes, but this was a dream that he would never ever be able to attain. Blood Eagle was only a moniker and nobody ever knew his real name. He was a person that everyone knew but nobody truly knew him.

An'an said these words in a tinkling but strong voice. Every word she said pierced right through the heart.

They seemed to see another shadow in this girl. This shadow was donned in black and he gradually disappeared in the darkness.
