"We wont probably sleep anyway so let us train in the middle of the night. It will helped us to make all our senses be more active. Lets just try it." Amishta suggested and everyone agreed. They all gather themselves and begun training. They have no light and only a certain light from the moon guide them to their way.
Everyone was totally active and observed everything. They helped each other very well. The absence of light made them more sensitive to sound thus making them still unharmed until they were trapped to defend themselves in arrows.
"Arrows!" They shouted but after a while they conserve their energy shouting in making sure that they wont get wounded. They survived the trapped but they are really wounded. It might not be serious but it was bad news for them. They went back to their place a while back and put medicine to their wounds.
"We surely has guts." Fred smiled but his faced become painful when adding medicine to his wounds. They all laughed at him. They are really having a breakthrough. They are way more faster and more sensitive already. Their swords were totally used this time.
"We need to rest. Though we cant but we should. We will take turns in guarding our place but make sure to get rest as tomorrow will be something we need to complete and do perfectly."
Even before the sun rises everyone was already preparing for their mission. They rested for only two hours but it was already great for them. Amishta then lead the group to the prohibited cliff of the mountain.
Everyone suddenly swallowed hard after arriving at the cliff. Just one wrong move and they can probably fall down and say goodbye to their life. The place was mostly filled with sharp stone and the flower seemed to be only found in the middle of the cliff. They can't even see the middle of the cliff as it was covered by clouds
"Everyone tie your self with a rope. We can't afford to have an accident here." They immediately moved away from the cliff and tie theirselves a rope. They tie the other side of the rope to the big tress around the cliff. Fred suddenly slipped and nearly died because of the sharp stone but Dew immediately helped so he was saved.
"Careful." Everyone nodded and take their steps seriously.
"Moved back. An arrow trap!" Amishta suddenly shouted as Fred seemed to activate an arrow trap. The arrows were facing targeting facing the cliff so they moved away from the cliff but Xian was seriously wounded as he saved Seth from the sharped stone.
Amishta lightly covered them to get away from the trapped and Jane immediately take care of the wound. Jose was actually guilty inside him seeing his team getting wounded because of his poison. He noticed that he was shielded by the team making it more difficult for him.
"Were training. This is normal. We can only wait for arrows to stop before aiming to go down and find the flower." They were quite ecstatic rather than negative as their training is really boosting them up. They waited after a while and moved their way again to the cliff with ropes on them.
"I will go first. Wait for my signal."
"No, I want to go first." Jose claimed. Amishta nodded.
"Then let us all go. Just make sure not to make wrong steps." Everyone started to go down using the rope. Every step was really hard as they cant really wanted to moved fast or they will be facing sharp stone that leads to death. It take them almost an hour before even reaching half before the middle of the cliff. The sun was already risen and it becomes one of their problem.
Everyone was full of sweet that made it even more impossible with them. They were all struggling hard especially Xian who was wounded and Jose with the poison acting again. Amishta was sure that they will not be able to hold any longer.
"I want others to go up again. We can't handle to be all down here. We need someone to help pulling the rope if incase we will find it." Amishta stated calmly. She doesn't need to point at them but they volunteered to go up as they knew they will become burden if they will not go up. Five of them go up and the six continued to go down.
As the five was already above the cliff, the six also reached the middle of the cliff. They were covered with clouds already. They can't help but to curse as they saw that the stone was way more sharper that can actually cut the rope easily. The clouds was hiding the sharp stone and one wrong move then you'll die.
"There is the flower!" Jane shouted but they don't feel excited with it as it was being covered with sharp stones. They wont be able to get it without serious wounds from the person who would get it. Amishta was about to go the flower but Jane didn't let her.
"I knew the flower more than anyone. If you get it the wrong way then it wont be useful anymore." Jane explained. Amishta hesitantly agreed. They all looked at Jane trying to fit herself with the hole covered with sharp stone to get the flower. She was already wounded all over body but she was so determined to get it.
She slowly moved to Amishta and give her the flower. Only female can be able to hold it thus Amishta was already in charged of it.
"We will hold her." Dew volunteered together with Zion to hold Jane. Amishta agreed. She carefully hold the flower and concentrate to reach above. Nathan also helped Amishta. As the people above notice Amishta and others. They gradually pulled the rope very slowly. They eventually reached the top with so much effort.
Amishta and others looked for everyone to put medicine on their wounds and as Jane was with more wounds they helped her with it. She was actually in pain she was totally hiding it to make sure that Amishta wont feel guilty about it. She doesn't care about Jose but she only cares about Amishta.
"The flower don't have a long span of time thus you need to sip the liquid in it now." Jane seriously stated at Jose. Amishta give the flower to Jose and everyone watched him sipped the flower.
"Don't overdo it. Just a sip is enough as it will be bad for your health." Jose nodded. He kept the flower and thank everyone.
"We need to get back to the mountain top to rest. We can just hunt and eat there." This time, they evaded traps just because everyone is exhausted and most of them are wounded. Amishta just stayed with Jane and let the boys find their food. They hunt rabbits and roast them.
Jose was obviously guilty and seemed like want to take responsibility to Jane as he know that it was his medicine that made her wounded to the extent. Amishta just let Jose take care of Jane. Jose even feed Jane his food. Everyone didn't find it excessive but only was seen as a way of gratitude.
"We are only allowed to train for two days thus after this, we will go down as to let our members be seen by doctors. This training was not what we expected but I think it was just a good way to train." Everyone agreed and smiled. It was exhausting but everything that happened was meaningful.
They decided to go back already but decided to train once more. They planned to make all the wounded be protected by of those not wounded. As long as they can still fight then they should fight. Amishta find the spot wherein they previously encounter a trap and lead the group there.
After the scene they have in the cliff. They seem to be more faster and raise their martial arts one more time. They all moved in sync as if they were all just dancing. Amishta was in charged of protecting Jane and Jose was also doing a great job protecting Xian.
The arrows seems to be easily gone this time and they actually wanted more to train but Jane's body is giving up. She really needs rest and more medicine thus they rushed her down the mountain. They immediately send her to the soldiers doctor. She was just fine but they were just worried.
"This ends our training. I will looked at her and probably I will take her to rest after this. Continue to train." They hesitated but agreed. They stayed for a moment and leave after. Jose wanted to stay bit Amishta scold at him saying that they just trained and Jane doesn't do any favors for him so he was forced to leave. Amishta looked at Jane and smiled.
"Seems like you really grown up."
"Princess, I think you owe me a compliment." Jane cockily stated that let Amishta chuckled.
"Perhaps, I can agree to that." They both laughed until servants from the mansion came to transfer Jane. They have a doctor inside the mansion and best for Jane's condition. Probably Butler Li would also want her disciple to be treated with the best.
