Zena: The Last Fight

Zena: The Last Fight
Counterattack


"Th-that ...."


The sentence hangs on the tip of the tongue, the throat is choked, the saliva it gulps like spiked balls. Feeling sick and tight, to breathe he had difficulty.


"You know now who you've offended? You must be afraid now, and be grateful that Brother has not punished you" Cheo's circus, smiling a menacing, cynical smile.


The man with the title of commander began to fidget. Restless and unsettled struck his heart, cold sweat poured out, hands and feet trembling to the rhythm of the shakes in the chest.


Die me! How could I possibly support such a big man?


She cusses herself, feeling stupid instantly especially as Zena laughs after she reigns to cook and take care of the wounded. His hands were clenched many times eliminating the dampness due to the soaking sweat. He was truly ashamed now and on the verge of death. Both his eyes moved increasingly here, thinking of looking for reasons that would be accepted.


Cheo who saw him like a loser, published a ridiculing smile. He puts the samurai Zena back carefully in Sebastian's hands. Standing from sitting did not intend to be in the association. Tigris appeared from behind the door, apparently the animal was watching from earlier. As if having a human-like thought, his golden eyes stared intently at the commander from the army headquarters. Fear grew in his heart.


Not long after, Zena appeared in clothes that were not much different from before. Traning black length, combined with a matching plain shirt that fits on his body. Her wet hair was left unraveled, natural beauty radiating from her figure.


Seeing Cheo and the Tigris outside, he undoes his intention to enter. Looking for a tree to shelter, enjoy the breeze like when on the island. Honey, the wind in the city no longer feels fresh. Mixed air pollution that sometimes causes a turbulent nausea.


"Wind here is not as fresh as the lake on the island," murmured Cheo origin as he continued to walk closer to the tree he had stopped by earlier.


"There's only one tree in this big neighborhood, which is unfortunate. Why not just planted empty land there rather than idle like that," said Zena stared at the beauty of the vast warehouse environment. There was only one tree that grew large and tall.


The two sat under her shady leaves. No need to worry that clothes will be dirty because what they incandescent is no longer soil.


"Sister, do all the residents in this Eagle City know Grandpa and Grandma?" cheo asked to throw a glance at Zena who leaned on the tree trunk.


"Sister doesn't know because Big Brother is also new in this city, and all the residents no one knows Big Brother except the people in the headquarters," Zena replied without opening her closed eyes.


Cheo broke down on his lap, the reflex of the girl's hand gently sweeping her hair. He opened his eyes to look at Cheo who kept on closing comfortably.


"You're not worried about your father? They said he was a prisoner" asked Zena looking at the ripples of the boy's face on his lap.


Cheo opened his eyes, pecking at Zena's dark bead. His chest moved sluggishly, rising and descending in rhythm with the breath.


"I'm so worried about you, brother. After all, I would never have been in this world if it wasn't for him. I want to release Dad immediately. All this time Dad has been kind to me, very patient with my rejection, I want to apologize to Dad," Cheo said melancholy.


Zena's heart was filled, there was a sense of being touched making the other side of her heart feel pain. However, whatever it was, what Cheo said was all true. Chendrik had to wait a while to be accepted as a father by his own biological son. He did not refuse, his heart certainly missed the baby despite not expected presence by the ex-wife.


"Why are you saying something that makes you sad? We'll both free your father from them. Not only your father, but our Eagle Eyes headquarters will also be freed from those savages," said Zena staring confidently at Cheo's glowing brown bead.


The boy nodded in agreement, determination rounded in their souls. Tonight, they will counterattack with or without the help of the haughty military commander.


Sebastian follows Zena, the discussion of the counter-attack they will have to continue. He stepped slowly and reluctantly, worriedly interrupting Zena's quiet time with Cheo under the tree.


"Zena?" reprimand Sebastian's timid. His grip tightened on two of Zena's heirlooms that were pinned to him.


"Thank you, Bas" said Zena, receiving a bow and samurai from her.


"No problem, but should we continue the discussion? Night's almost here, and we haven't determined an attack plan." Sebastian bit the flesh within his lips, restraining the nervousness that suddenly struck his heart. Though he was just a Zena that he used to be harassed.


Zena glanced, the radiance of annoyance was still clearly visible in her manic. However, the strategy of the attack must be determined immediately.


"alright. Come, Cheo. We have to find the right strategy to counter-attack" Zena said.


Cheo moves on, without refusing to go with Zena to the boring society. That thick mustachioed man over there that Cheo didn't want to see, his face was sickening to look at. Tigris was in the party. The arrival of Zena made the atmosphere tense instantly.


The thick-moustached man paled, Zena frowned in surprise. What an incredible change. He sat next to Cheo and Tigris. The large animal seemed comfortable leaning his head on Zena's body. It adds to the fear within the commander.


"I want the soldiers to free the leaders and ministers from their captives. The matter of the Eagle Eyes headquarters, me and my troops will clear it. Focus your assault on a government building occupied by the mafia. Do not interfere with the affairs of our headquarters" Zena stressed seriously.


The commander did not pucker, nor did he answer. He was agitated at the thought of his fate which should be prepared to accept punishment for his sassness.


"Good, Master!" greet them simultaneously.


"Master?" Zena frowned not understanding. Since when did those soldiers call themselves masters?


"Mmm .. Please forgive us, Master. We are truly sorry for our disrespectful actions against you" one of the soldiers said, bowing his head.


Zena glanced at Cheo, the boy did not ripple at all. Stay flat without expression. Then, his gaze turned to Sebastian who was commenting on a satisfied smile. He understood now, as the two objects he was carrying revealed Zena's true identity.


"alright. No problem, next time do not look down on someone from the outside. Get to know first, then you can judge," the wise counsel of Zena made them come to their senses.


As soldiers, the highest-ranking security officers in the country, they feel the best and most honorable of the rest of society. Looking down on everyone even underestimated the pent-up power in that person they considered inferior.


"Good, Master. Thank you for the advice you gave. From now on, we will be even more careful" said the commander.


He had lost face in front of Zena, kept his head down as the discussion progressed. However, the girl was indifferent, continuing to speak without any intention of reprimanding him. Be it tonight they will move simultaneously towards the center of the city, while Zena and her two troops will go to the headquarters. Here is Sebastian who wants to participate in the release of his brother.
