Chapter 15: Before School

Pyra had gotten in a shower, cleaning her whole body. She could not get Eader out of her head, she also wandered who Michael was.

Even though he is strong, he got beaten by Michael. Who is this Michael?

***

Before Eader woke up, and Pyra arriving, Michael woke up.

"Aaah, I feel like I have a hangover," he moved his body from the bed.

"Yeah, must have been a painful one," that shocked Michael, but he recognised the voice.

"And what happened, since I am a bit fuzzy."

"The little munchkin beat you, that's what happened," Gramps said with a beaming smile.

Agitatedly he replied" aah, I remember, I underestimated him. "

" You sure did, I am surprised you did not notice earlier, he was going for it since the beginning. "

That made Michael shuffle over and look at him," are you serious?"

Gramps nodded, giving an even greater smile.

Michael slapped himself on the head.

"I am leaving," he got up from the bed and looked for his stuff.

"Without talking to him," Gramps commented.

"Tell him this from me."

Gramps heard the whole statement.

***

Once they were done, Pyra unlocked the bathroom door and both went out to change. This is when she noticed that Eader was smaller than her.

Is this alright?

She had heard it from Grandpa's readings, but for him to be this small, she knew his height from the beginning as he had a small upper body, poking out from the tub, but she still could not believe it. Her thoughts were making her wander until she stopped moving because of her clothing.

"And how was it?" giving a smile.

"The bath was good," Pyra answered.

He turned away and laughed.

Then he screamed, "Get ready Eader, I am dropping you off!"

"Ok!"

"Bye," he said embarrassingly.

"Bye," she returned, not making it as petty.

Then he walked away, awkwardly.

What the hell just happened?

He grabbed all of his stuff and got into the Eader grabbed his sword and smacked on the lap.

SMACK!!

He sat at the front of the car and made the car start driving off, they sped up a lot .

It was not too hard but gave Gramps a reason to look at him. "How was Pyra?" He asked, giving the most serious look he had given.

However, Eader did not see his face and answered, "I dont know, she is fine," he blinked are you trying to hook me up with her?" He was so surprised with the answer he dwindled, " uuuum."

Eader said with a blank face, "you disgust me."

But he gave a loud laugh, scaring Eader when he went off the line.

"Concentrate on driving!!" Eader exclaimed.

Eader got out of the car and walked to his house, and looked at the white wall.

Now I'm gonna stay here for two days, just resting.

Gramps told him, explicitly not to exercise, since his body needs to rest.

But he never said I could not practice my sword skills.

The conversation with Pyra made him realise that he misses his mum.

I am gonna find her.

He thinks that if he increases his sword skills he will help him find them, he just knew.

He entered but something was not right, the door was unlocked, he got the key from Nancy after they had a little argument before leaving.

But thank god she is gone, doing that while I sleep, man.

He put his bag down next to the door and took the sword out.

Gramps told him the resin is the first stage of development, so he might improve, but he told him he could apply the oxalic acid. He remembered he had to buy it. Eader's money situation was given to him with the school's package.

A card used to make purchases, he would get two hundred pounds a week, for food and other lifestyles.

Back to now, Eader sneaked in.

He saw it in a mess.

Nothing looked broken.

And they never bothered decorating shelves, they did have a plant (Silene tomentosa), which he did water every day.

But he saw it on the floor.

No… plant.

He did not have a name for him.

Then he heard rummaging, vicious rummaging.

The person is looking for something, but what?

Then he checked for his phone since he left it in the house, he walked cautiously to the sofa, he was next to the stairs when…

Swish.

He avoided bumping into the person, he looked at the clock.

8.25.

The man is wearing a black coat, with black trousers, and has his sword out.

This gave Eader a picky situation, should he smack him or not, but something touched his back.

His reflexes took over and before the man could counter, he got hit on the head. Eadar looked at what he did, giving the baby-puke face.

What do I do now?

The logical thing to do was call the police, but maybe he was with the people that kidnapped his mum.

He looked for a chair and something he could use to tie somebody up, then he went to the place, where he saw that weird thing.

Checked it.

So I was right.

There was a small one and it looked like it was on.

A smile grew across Eadar's face.

Then he grabbed it out and did something which only you can imagine.

***

Jimmy was a man, who lived a fairly quiet life. If by fairly you mean he works for a flaccid organisation, without a leader, however, the boss came out of hiding and started everything up.

He was gleeful, not only was everything in order, but he could cultivate his family better. His job was very easy, with a camera stuck in the house, all he had to do was look out for the kid, to see if he does anything stupid.

He thought the job was easy, then they say he had to scout the house to see if he had something suspicious, then the kid comes in and whacks him into the temple. It was painful, however, what is the worst thing that could happen?

He regrets asking that question since when he wakes up he sees something weird. He tied up to the chair, and the kid tidied everything up and cried over a plant.

Jimmy gives the most confused face, then pretends to go back to sleep. It was weird they wore a yellow t-shirt and red fluffy shorts. For some reason, he was battered with bruises from head to toe.

Then the hit he took from him earlier kicked in, his head was a cheeseburger infested with flies. Then he made a noise, because of the pain.

Crap, did he hear me?

He opened his eyes slowly and saw nobody.

He sighed in relief.

"BOO!" Eader abruptly exclaimed, giving Jimmy almost got a heart attack and permanent hearing damage.

Eader looked at him giving a face, a petrified face.

Did I scare him too much?

Eader made a strong impression," I want you to answer me with full honesty and expression."

Jimmy calmed down, then countered his strong impression" I know you have a ***** collection, so stop the act."

[For Eader sanity, I will not tell you what it is.]

The look that Eader gave was the baby-puke face.

"Fine, but still, why are you here?" he asked in a maddened voice.

"Like I would tell you," giving a glare.

But Eader sighed," well I guess we have to do it the hard way."

Then Eader got some pliers from the floor and showed them to him.

Jimmy gave a nervous look, then he shouted" I have a family, don't you care."

Eader replied with a grim face.

"Do you think I care?"

Jimmy gave a tear, "fine, I will answer your questions," he said with a defeated face.

Eader smiled.

No way, it worked.

Eadar would never torture somebody, so he pretended to be like that before he did anything.

"Ok, what or who do you work for?"
