Power Of Blood: Darkness Never Leaves 99 Angry Bird

Lakshya looked at Visha with admiration. Ever since this journey had begun, he had seen many sides of this girl. She was brave, independent, courageous and someone who was willing to step forward and take a hit when no one did. The respect he had for her had been increasing tremendously from day one. His heart began to feel a warm fuzz as he stared at her checking for other wounds on both the priests' bodies.

Nati squinted her eyes as she stared at him. This guy is definitely in love with her Master! What made him think a mere human could match a magnificent creature like her. Nati grunted and looked away. The sight of a love stricken idiot was making her nauseous. This boy would just end up making a fool of himself is all.

Visha got up and headed towards the unconscious Shaurya and Ashwin. She pulled Ashwin up and started examining him. He hadn't taken any severe damage, just some scratches and minor injuries. He had pa.s.sed out due to exhaustion and a depleted power reserve. He will be needing some rest to recover is all. Visha was relieved to see that. But the scrawny Ashwin was too heavy for her so Danish rushed to help her put Ashwin back gently. Then he turned to Shaurya and noticed the bleeding in his leg. He showed it to Visha as his heart started racing as she began to examine it. It was a bite mark. Danish's guilt weighed down on him as he saw Visha tending to Shaurya's wounds.

He should have been here. Danish thought. He should have fought here and protected them. They were his responsibility, he should never have shoved it onto Shaurya. He shouldn't have stepped down from his position as their leader. Maybe then Shaurya wouldn't have ended up like this. It should've been him not Shaurya.

Visha had bandaged the bite wound and looked up to see the guilt on Danish's face. She patted on his shoulder to console him.

"He'll be just fine. His flesh hadn't been torn away, so it just took a few st.i.tches. Its nothing major. Don't blame yourself."

Danish nodded at her and turned to Lakshya. The sun was about to set soon, they'd need to sleep here tonight. So, he asked Lakshya to help him set up a temporary sleeping area and a fire. Lakshya agreed and handed the sleeping bird back to Visha before leaving.

Visha turned around and went to sit with the priests, since everyone else was still unconscious. Priest Dharma saw a snowy white ball in her arms as she walked towards him. He tilted his head and tried to guess what it was. Visha sat beside him as he continued to stare at it with a confused face.

"I found him in the woods and he tagged along." Visha said with a smile as she stroked its soft feathers. The bird shook itself awake and stared at her with his sleepy eyes. Visha smiled back at him and petted its head. She picked him up and turned to Priest Dharma. He seemed to like Mr Feathers, she thought but was met by a pale looking priest. Priest Dharma's eyes were widened in shock and fear was written all over his face. As soon as Mr Feathers saw him he jumped out of her grasp and landed right in front of the priest. Priest Dharma saw the anger in the bird's eyes and cowered in fear. Visha couldn't understand what was going on. Priest Dharma was afraid of Mr Feathers! But why?

She continued to look at the two of them who seemed to have frozen in their places. Priest Dravya too looked at the scene in shock. He had never seen Priest Dharma fear anyone in his life. This man wasn't even afraid of death!

"Forgive me!"

The bow offered by Priest Dharma with these words to the white swan came as a surprise to both of them.

"This servant has failed and is ready to accept all punishment. We had never thought this matter would be blown so much out of proportion to even disturb Your Eminence!"

Priest Dharma just addressed a swan as 'Your Eminence'! Priest Dravya and Visha gawked as this scene unfolded.

Mr Feathers started to squawk angrily as Priest Dharma kept his head bowed in shame. His fists were clenched as he silently listened to all the insults being thrown at him. Visha looked at Nati who was just beside her. Nati immediately understood what her little Master wanted.

"He is angry at the useless human priest. It was their job to keep this forest safe and they had terribly failed. The bird even said that he is bound not to interfere with humans and their kind. And that was the only reason those s.h.i.tty priests and that culprit conjurer were still alive. And that if he could he'd behead all the idiots in that stupid priesthood."

Visha was even more shocked and confused after listening to Nati's translation. The one being bashed was the First Priest of the most prominent and powerful priesthood of the country. A man no one could even reach to worship was cowering in fear because of a swan! Just what was Mr Feathers' ident.i.ty that allowed him to bash him like that?
