Rise of HAKHAMANESH: The One

A Promise

* Do you want to leave the planet and return to the academy? *

* Your prizes will be given to you soon. *

* Note that if you do not accept, you will be automatically teleported to the academy in five minutes.*

Arash did not know how many hours he had been lying on the ground and thinking.

But he knew that thinking about it was enough and he had to go back.

So he said.

((Yes.))

FEEEEESH

Dark was torn by a light brown black hole and hugged Arash, who was no longer injured.

Arash's eyes saw a rainbow of strange colors, and a few seconds later, at the place where he was teleported from,  a crack became visible in space and threw Arsh out of itself.

As soon as Arash hit the ground, he quickly got up and looked around and was surprised to see no one.

(How late am I?) Arash thought to himself, but when he saw the bloodstains that had been spilled on the ground in that area, he remembered his friends and his pack.

So he said quickly.

((Artina, guide me to where Liam and Tao are.))

*OK.*

((PAYAM.))

Arash opened the messaging screen between the members of his pack and typed in a hurry.

* Arash: guys. How are you? *

* Rashun: Oh! B.A is finally online. Hello. What's up? *

* Arash: Hello to you too. How are you? Is there anything wrong? Did anyone get hurt? Why didn't answer the rest? *

Rashun: I'm fine, The others are fine too. No need to worry. The days we were on the quest were very tiring, so as soon as we got home, everyone fell asleep from exhaustion. I was asleep too, but I had to wake up from my sweet sleep to report to my master, and now that I wanted to go back to sleep I saw your message.*

* Arash: Oh, is that so. You're all good, perfect... You go to sleep too. Bye.*

* Rashun: Okay, I'll see you. bye*

Arash closed the message screen and focused on running.

The last time he saw his friends, the two of them were in bad shape, especially Liam, and if he had not seen at the last minute that Liam was being healed by one of those five students, Arash would not have even tried to be in the dark and Let go of all his vague feelings.

Arash ran through the streets and alleys, which were very quiet and silent, and with Artina's guidance, after a few minutes, he found himself in front of a white brick building.

At the top of the large glass door of the building was a sign that write: (Student Treatment Center)

But the silence and quietness in that building did not show at all that one of the bloodiest quests of the academy had ended just a few hours ago.

Arash, but, did not pay attention to this issue and hurried inside the building.

He run to the white counter, which bore the mark of a needle and cane, and spoke to a nurse wearing a white dress.

((Hello. Can you guide me to my friend's room?))

((Yes. Room 2239. Continue the green line and you will reach it.)) The nurse said indifferently.

((But I have not yet said his name.)) Arash said in surprise.

((Look around. Is anyone else so miserable to use the Academy General Hospital?))

 The nurse, who did not seem to be feeling well about what she was doing, answered Arash bitterly.

Arash tried not to waste his time by talking too much, so for this reason, he nodded his head in thanks and hurriedly followed the green line.

After only two minutes, he reached the room where his friends were and slowly opened the door.

There were two white beds near each other in the room, and on one of the beds near the entrance, there was Tao, who seemed to be in a good shape, looking sadly at the other bed. Arash followed his gaze and reached another bed. On the bed, there was Liam, whose whole body was bandaged except for his head, and the absence of one of his hands was very visible. In the area where Liam's hand was no more, there was a little red-haired girl with her head on the bed, and the sound of her slow cries made the silence of the room even more apparent.

At that moment, the door that Arash had let go of finally returned to its frame and made a sound that caused the eyes to turn in that direction.

Arash was embarrassed and when he saw the heavy looks of his two friends on himself, he only raised his hand with a shy smile and greeted him.

((Hello.))

((Arash !!!)) Liam shouted, leaving a trail of pain on his face.

((What are you doing here !?)) Fortunately, Liam's meaning was well received by Tao's surprised and worried shot.

((You should not be here !! Do you know how much chaos you created with what you did !!!? Even when we all returned to the academy, I coils see the shocked and angry faces of all the students who were teleported with us. You completed your mission so fast that even the academy system could not determine your reward and asked for a one-day opportunity !!!! and ....)) It seemed that Tao had a lot to say but Arash had something to do. He had come here for something else and did not want to hear about the greatness of what they had done, so he jumped into Tao’s words.

((OK. OK. I understand. What we did was really great, but I did not come here for that and you do not want to worry about anyone knowing me because in that darkness even I did not know myself, so no need to think about others anymore.)) Arash's words clearly affected Liam and Tao, and even Liam opened his mouth to say something, but Arash stopped him, saying, ((Well, tell me, how are you feeling?))

Asking this question, there was once again a heavy silence in the room, which once again filled with silent cries of the red-haired little girl.

Seeing that he could not get an answer from his more than usual quiet friends, Arash walked towards the girl and put his hand on her head, and caressed her.

Feeling the warmth of Arash's hand, the girl raised her head and her purple eyes, which shone with their tears, stared at Arash.

Arash smiled and asked.

((Hello. I am Arash. What is your name?))

The girl glanced at her brother and saw that he nodded his head, so she looked at Arash again and whispered in a thin, cute, and upset voice.

((I ... I'm Hannah. si... sister of brother Liam .... sob…sob...)) As soon as word of Liam came out of her mouth, her tears intensified and her head went back to bed.

Arash, who felt her sadness, continued to caress her head and said.

((Do not worry. No problem in the world has no solution, especially in the magical world we live in.)) At the end of Arash's sentence, the little girl lifted her head from the bed with great enthusiasm and with bright eyes, but this time she looked at Arash with hope and said.

((Are you sure!? Can you find a way to return brother Liam's hand to him? Cuse that doctor said that until a strong family supports my brother and pays for his treatment, my brother can not take his hand back forever.)) By recounting this incident, sadness wanted to come to Hannah again, but Arash said quickly.

((Yes, yes. Do not worry. I can help him, but in return, you have to make a promise to me.))

Hannah nodded hurriedly and said.

((Okay, okay. I promise to live up to my promise forever.))

((Excellent. So what I want from you is to... do not cry anymore, okay?)) Arash said with a smile.

Hannah, however, did not answer quickly, and it was clear that she was thinking carefully about this promise.

After a while that Arash had been looking at Hannah's face with a smile that was getting brighter every moment, Hannah finally made up her mind.

((Okay, I promise, but as long as my brother is healthy, ok?) Hannah looked at Arash with a determined look that was extremely funny and cute.

Arash could not stop his laughter anymore and after several laughs escaped from his mouth, he nodded his head and said.

((he he he, fine, I promise.))

Hannah put her little finger forward, but in the middle, she seemed to change her mind and turn into one full hand.

((hmmm ... big people shake hands like this ... right?))

 Hannah was confident at first, but at the end of her sentence, she looked at Arash hesitantly.

Arash, who had prevented himself from hugging Hannah, nodded his head and took Hannah’s little hand by the hand, which had not yet been cleansed of the blood of various monsters, and gave it a strong shake.

((So ​​everything is set.)) Arash said and looked at Tao and Liam.

((Arash, you don't have to…))

 Liam who still had the hope of his hand return to him in his heart, and the source of that hope was standing in front of him, wanted to say something, but Arash jumped into his words and began to speak.

The words that were supposed to change the future of all the people in that room forever.

(( you see, since I knew you completely, I had the thought of sharing what I have with you.

 But the thought that my race is still weak and there is a long way to go to get stronger held me back, but this thought never left my head.

The thought of giving you something you do not have while you deserved it, but now everything has changed. My race and I are not weak enough to hold you back.)) Arash did not know, but what he was about to say was what Tao had been thinking since he was a child.

That someone comes and tells him that.

Tell him that you deserve the power that had no limit.

Tell him that I am strong enough to make your body stronger and you will never feel weak again.

In front of Tao's eyes, which were glued to Arash's mouth, Arash finally said that sentence.

((Would you like to have a power like mine and much more?))

((Yes)) Tao shouted from the bottom of his heart with joy.

((No.)) No, like a sharp object, tore the happy atmosphere of that room.

((...))

((...))

((...))

Before Arash could say anything, Liam speak again while trying hard to finish each word.

((I ruined…. the chance I was given… a long time ago, but it's not ….too late for my sister. Can you introduce my sister Hannah instead of introducing me to the head of the household?))

 Liam was sad but happiness was burning his heart.

Liam's body was severely disrupted by all that had happened to him and The doctor that tested this problem said that Liam had no chance of getting well, and because of this, Liam knew he was past it, and the only thing left for him to care about was his sister's future.

((Oh, I thought you did not want this, good, I'm relieved. No need to worry, the head of the family is always with me.)) Arash, breathing comfortably again, knelt in front of Hannah.

(Huh? Is he always with him? What does Arash mean?) Tao thought in surprise.

(What? Oh, he must mean he has a device with him that allows him to talk quickly to his household head.) Liam quickly found a logical reason for himself.

Arash was looking into Hannah's eyes and Hannah was waiting for Arash to tell her that she was useless and to treat her brother, but what came out of Arash's mouth was not what she expected.

((Hannah, would you like to use a bow? Do you like them?)) Arash asked.

((Hmmm ... I like bows because they always helped my brother and me to eat ... but ..)) Hannah wanted to continue to oppose and tell him to choose her brother, but Arash did not allow her to talk for more, Because Arash got up and walked towards Liam to lift him up and at the same time told Tao.

((Tao, can you move, or do you want me to carry you like Liam?))

Tao, who was surprised and did not know how to react, just nodded his head, but in the end, he could not stop himself and asked.

((But why?))

Arash, who was putting a surprised Liam on his back, laughed and said.

((Why what? Do you expect me to turn you here?))

((...))

((...))

((...))

((haaaaaa?))

 Shouts of surprise and shock engulfed the entire hospital.

Screams that had thousands of different and opposite feelings in them.

Shock, fear, unhappiness, anger, surprise, happiness, enthusiasm, but most importantly.

Hope.
