All concentrated on Lora except her sister who stood beside her. They wanted to hear nothing but the history she talked about forgetting that they were gun men after their precious lives.
"So, what history does my boss.. sorry, my formal boss had with your late father?" Ena asked.
"My father and Ken established Rain Brain at first.." Lora retold the story.
"So, your father is the rightful owner of Rain Brian? "Ena became surprise. "And Ken killed your father too? That man is heartless!"
Benlo looked at the two sisters. "I hope you guys have a plan of getting what is rightfully yours"
The girls shruggled along with their heads showing that they had no plan to do that.
"They don't even need the company anymore!" Jasper began while they looked at him. "Why do they need the company when they have golds?"
"That reminds me" Ena inferred looking at Benlo and Sarah "You both were able to pick out the golds while my boss tried but couldn't"
"Even me too" Jasper added.
"Why? And how did both of you get there at the same time?" Ena asked.
"We still don't know. There are many questions we need answers for but don't know how to get them" Benlo replied.
"Everything that is happening in the river is mysterious, even the river itself" Ena concluded, then Sarah glanced at her wounded leg.
"What happened to you?"
"A bullet scratched my flesh. All thanks to.."
"It's Benlo" Benlo helped. "See, I'm sorry, now i know you saved my life"
"But how did you figure out where the river is?"
"I saw the location on the computer screen when i entered the company"
Everywhere remained quiet as their minds wandered at different things. Fresh leaves rattled, wind blew off dead ones, insects flew at close rang and animals made noise from afar.
"Now what?" Jasper broke the silence.
"Ken's men are in this forest now looking for us" Ena began. "And believe you me, they aren't gonna stop until they have us killed. This has become pure adventurous in nature, so we have to stay strong. Running won't save us. The only thing is to defeat them and take their guns before planning how to get out of here"
"Deal" Jasper supported.
"Sssshh" Benlo sighed making all to listen. They heard footsteps coming from part of the bush then all dispersed hiding at a safer place but still within the arena. Benlo claimed the nearest tree.
A man with a gun first arrived and Benlo saw him from the tree. Suddenly, he jumped down on him thus kicking the gun off from his hand and trying to strangle him too but the man hit him off with a strong blow that made his nose bled. Seeing that, Ena ran out, picked the gun and pointed it at the man. "Kiss my ass!" she said and pulled the trigger immediately he turned. "Run!"
They began to run even those that were still hiding. Another man who just arrived began to shoot at their direction before others arrived to see one of their men dead.
"Fuck!" the man exclaimed. "What a heck is Ena doing here?!"
"Ena?" another repeated. Did you actually see her?"
"Yes!"
"Go after them now!"
They began to chase them again.

The day began to get dark. Eric didn't worry about his grandchildren because he knew where they were. Only Mr and Mrs Livinus, Benlo's parents, worried about their only son.
At Rain Brain, the men arrived with the dead body of one of them and placed it before Mr Rain.
"Sir, Ena did this, she killed him"
"Ena?" Mr Rain looked at his body-guards. "How can Ena be with those children when i told you to kill her?"
"We're sorry sir, maybe she survived the bullet" one of them replied fearfully.
"I guess you gonna survive this too" Mr Rain opened the man's suit, brought out his gun and shot him to death. He looked at the group of men again. "Get prepared, you're going back to that forest again first thing tomorrow morning and don't come back without Ena's head"

Benlo and co stopped running to rest a bit. They were happy they had a gun with them handled by Ena.
Benlo sat down still bleeding from the nose. When Lora saw it, he met him and said, "Allow me" she squat before him, held his head and began to clean the bleeding nose with her shirt.
When Sarah saw them in such position, she became jealous but tried so hard not to show it. Immediately Benlo looked at her direction, she averted her eyes instantly.
After Lora finished, she stared into his eyes. "I'm done"
"Thanks" Benlo appreciated.
Just then, they began to hear voices of people.
"Can you hear that?" Jasper asked.
"Yes" Lora turned.
All followed the voices. They finally hid at a secret place watching where it was coming from; It was community! The citizens were more like primitive human beings using animal skin as cloth and having tribal marks on their faces. Their house were made of palm-front and sticks. Their women were very beautiful having only their breasts and waists covered.
Seeing all that from the secret place, Jasper shouted, "Oh, my God!"
