220 The Par Line

Many missionaries and explorers have crossed the par line before and as soon as they did, either the sky rained with poisonous arrows or their boats sunk without reasonable explanations. All who dared to get a contact with the Maggan Tribe never succeeded, except for Professor Owens.

Xhemin prepared to abandon the motorboat and waited for the sun to set, she will used the small bag she had with her as a floating device. During her voyage, she read the instructions Professor Owens scribbled at the back of the book he made her and it gave Xhemin an idea not to use the motorboat to cross the par line or else, the possibility of the Manggan tribe raining arrows in her was huge. It was only now that she learned,  with the realization she had by reading professor Owen's instruction was that—the Manggan Tribe were very watchful of their borders and whenever they see anything crossing the par line, they sent raging arrows to kill intruders. That was the same reason why Xhemin waited for the sunset before she went off board, so that the darkness will hide whatever she was doing.

The salt water was hot when Xhemin plunged in and without wasting time, she crossed the par line and started swimming as fast as she could toward the Island. In her calculation, it might take her two to three hours to reach the sh.o.r.e however, despite her long voyage, she didn't feel exhausted. The truth was, she was scared what was waiting for her at the other side and of course she feared for her life but the memory of Huzey and Darryl as she booth left them kept her determined. She just wished that if she was to die tonight, she hoped it would be a swift death.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.

Xhemin was able to cross the par line smoothly and nothing weird really happen as she continued swimming further and further. However, just as she though she'll get to the sea sh.o.r.e safe, a loud sound broke the dark sky—something was thrown into the air, exploded and lighted the place where Xhemin was. It was like a firework thrown into the sky and for few seconds it revealed Xhemin's exact location, right then she knew she had been caught. Seconds before the place succ.u.mb to darkness again, a series of arrows were thrown to Xhemin's location and the girl had to submerge herself to the water to escape from it. Xhemin stayed underwater until she couldn't hold her breathe anymore but then as soon as she returned to the surface to get some air, an arrow hit right through her!

"Ahhhhpp!" Xhemin screamed in pain as her body floated in the water. She managed to keep her body steady at the surface for a while before she felt so weak. Even if she can't see it, she knew that she bleed, it was so painful and soon her body was paralyzed—she couldn't swim anymore. Before the ocean drowned her, Xhemin saw the sky and the beautiful moon. They were the witness to her death. She thought of her grandfather and how their last conversation turned to. If there's one thing she regret before her death, it was the fact that she wasn't able to apologize and tell him how much she loved him.

Few seconds more and the arrows stopped raining, the skies succ.u.mbed to darkness again and Xhemin's body submerged, deeper and deeper into the ocean.
