Saberboy-Chapter 5(Part 2)

I woke up in a start as the same nightmare about me killing children haunted me again. I could not forget about the girl's face as she screamed when she turned into complete sand. I then realize that it was still midnight and Sef was not in his bed. I got out of my bed and got out of the room the Fidleman put me in. I walked around the long hallway trying to clear my head. That's when I heard someone screamed. I quickly ran to where the scream came from I looked to my left to see a door. The scream was coming from that room so I opened the door softly and peek into the room. What I saw made me realise that Sorenia wasn't what I thought it was. Standing inside the room chained to the walls was a small girl wearing ragged clothes. The way she was standing showed me that she was not in good shape. Inside the room were two more men. One standing in front of the girl, the other at the back. The man in the front was wearing deep blue robes that fell to the floor. The man I guess was in his 80's because he had long gray beard that reach to his elbows and bushy eyebrows that covered his eyes. "Tell us what we need to know and you can leave here alive", said the old guy in a calm voice. The girl got silent for a while and spat on the floor. "Never!" said the girl. "So be it", said the old guy. He motioned to the guy at the back. The other guy was like a bodybuilder. He was wearing a sleeveless brown vest that showed his biceps and a pair of dark brown shorts. The guy was wearing a black mask that covered his face to his neck. There were hoiles for his eyes and a small hole for the mouth. Conclusion, this guy look like an executioner. The big guy walked to the side of the wall and tokk out a nasty whip that was about a few feet long. The worse thing was, the whip was burning hot. "Last chance", said the old guy. The girl just looked down. The old guy put his hand down and the big guy smack the whip right at the girls back with full force. The girl cried out in pain.
I, on other hand was covering my hands to forget that horrible scene. This was wrong, they were torturing a girl. My body was entirely shaken. I couldn't take the pressure. I heard the whip lash again and the girl screaming her lungs out. I couldn't take it anymore. Instead, I went into action mode. I burst right in the room, uninvited. The two bullies really took my surprise move. They were stunned and the big guy drop his whip. I stand in front of them and asked them in my most serious tone. "Stop what you're doing right now and let her go." The old guy didn't know how to react. He quickly asked the big guy to unlock the cuffs. All four cuffs were unlocked and the two guys left the room. I looked at the girl lying down on the floor. She was really hurt. She turned her head around and our eyes met. Somehow I thought I've seen those eyes before. Then the horrible truth hit me. She was the sand-girl that attacked me on the field that Sef brought me to train. She stared at me and let out a smile. "You really are the true Saberboy", said the girl. She collapse on the floor. I ran to her and checked her breathing. I would love to tell you that she was alive but she wasn't. She was dead. I suddenly feel very angry at the Council Of Elders. How could they let this happen? I left the girl there and ran straight for the courtroom that I was in when I first met the council.
I blasted through the door and saw that everyone was there seated and the two guys were talking so quick I could barely hear a word. Everyone was shocked by my sudden appearance. I guess I have developed a bad habit of shocking people. Sef was also in the room. He looked better than before. "What brings you here Saberboy? You need to rest", said Sef. "What did you do to that girl?" I said. I was really mad right now. All of them kept silent. Nobody was answering at all. "Answer me!" I shouted. "There seems to be a misunderstanding", said a guy sitting on the big table. "There was no mistake. I saw those two torturing that little girl and I want to know why!" I shouted. Suddenly the ground was shaking. I didn't know whether I did it or it was something else. My answer came a second later. A man came bursting into the room and said, "Council, Zolan is here." That got everyone shocked. The man was wearing all yellow. I'm serious. His shirt, pants and shoes were all yellow. He also wore a yellow robe with a mark at the back. It had a circle in it and stars in all four directions. In the circle was about nine dots with different colours. Red, blue, yellow, white, green, black, purple, silver, and gold. They were all surrounding a black star. It was a very weird logo. Immediately the four old men and women started barking orders to the other people who were sitting on the table. Everything was a blurr. It was just too sudden. Suddenly I felt a hand pulling me out of the crowd. I was pulled out of the room and I saw who it was. Sef. Man, was I glad to see him back in shape. "Saberboy, you need to get out of here", said Sef. "No", was all I could say. Sef looked at me as if I was crazy. "If this is the guy that I'm facing with, then I want him to have a good look at me." I pushed Sef aside and ran for the exit. I blasted through the door and look back to see a small house like before. I quickly looked up and saw my opponent.
