Sabertooth - Chapter 12

Chapter 12: Running Away

The next morning, when Mrs. Cred came to the door of the basement to prepare Victor for breakfast, she saw the hole in the basement door and a written letter.

The letter is not very long, and the content is as follows:

Dear mother:

Thank you and father for so many years of care. In fact, after that incident, I once hated him, but in the end your love and our love for each other let us accept each other again. I forgave him, and thank him for forgiving the irreparable mistakes I made. I thought that after that, I could accompany you through a peaceful life as a son.

After my father and I have understood each other, the time before his death was the happiest time when I came to this world. You may understand, maybe not, but I have to say that I truely treat you as my favorite parent.

However, there is no perfect thing in this world, and I also discovered this after my father died. In fact, he is not wrong, I was indeed cursed by Devil. Since that incident happened, unfortunately it is destined to haunt me, and eventually involve people around me, who care about me, people, or the person I care about. Without exception, they will be implicated.

I didn’t realize this at first, but now I think about it, if I left on the first night when I broke free of the chain, would things be different? Maybe you will leave the town for finding me and then you will be protected from disaster?

But there is no if in life, and the fate never can be change, so I also have to stand at the fork in this life choice. As a result of my final consideration, I decided to leave. Although it feels good to be at home, I still prefer the feeling of wandering outside.

Mom, I actually don’t want to lose you anymore, it’s as if you don’t want to lose me. If I continue to stay with you, then I believe that misfortune and accident will still come again. If you will be implicated, then I will not be able to forgive myself. So I left.

Of course, don’t worry about me, you know that I am not ordinary, so naturally it will not be so easy to have an accident. Just believe in your son. One day, when I have enough power to face all misfortunes and accidents, and when I can protect you, I will return to your side and accompany you for the rest of my life.

Now I have to follow my heart and take a look at the outside world. The world of the eagle is always the sky, and your son, me, is going to soar!

Finally, in the end, I love you and father, mom. Although I have never told you before, I think if I don’t say it at this moment, maybe there will be no chance in the future. I have missed the opportunity to tell my father. I have regrets for life, so I want to tell you that I love you, mother. Don’t come to me, I will come back, please believe me, I have grown up! I’m as high as 206cm!

Victor.

While looking at the letter, Mrs. Creed’s tears slowly flowed out. After reading it, she placed the letter on her chest, her shoulders shaking and she began to sob.

At this time our protagonist, Victor. As he said, he grew up and reached a height of 6 feet 7 inch. Such a height, even among Europeans and Americans, is considered a big chunk.

The golden bangs half-covered his eyes, giving a bohemian feeling. The sideburns and the beard on the chin are joined together, giving a sense of immediate sight.

All in all, he has grown long, and after he and his animal nature have become one, he feels that he can ‘grow up’.

This does not affect his lifespan, and is even better than before. He can skip a long period of growth and directly enter the peak state of the body, and keep it until his self-healing factor disappears or he dies.

But there is a trouble! When Victor grew up, he suddenly remembered that he was still wearing children’s clothes, and the clothes were broken!

Therefore, when he ran to the house, he actually climbed into the window with his buttocks intact. For the cat instinct, stealing a clothes without being discovered was a breeze.

But the embarrassment is that he is too big to wear the stolen clothes. He had to put on a pair of pants and a belt to start his wandering journey. Well, he didn’t even have shoes.

But when he appeared in front of Lieutenant Colonel Bagley more than ten days later, he had got a piece of clothing, a cowboy hat and a horse with a revolver in his waist.

As for the origin of these things, everyone can see benevolence and wisdom. But the blood stains on the clothes may give other peoples some ideas.

Not much to say, Victor directly found the guards at the entrance of the local U.S. military station and asked him to tell their chief Lieutenant Colonel Bagley that his old friend Creed’s son looking for him and can help him against attackers approach.

Yes, after Bagley left at the funeral, he began to hunt down the attackers, and finally blocked them in wood a day ago.

But after entering the woods, the original home of the American army became attackers. They hid in the woods and attacked the American troops with bows and spears.

Then the plan to ignite the woods failed because the environment was too humid, so Bagley had to lead his men to stop outside the woods and start a confrontation with the attackers.

Victor also learned from the conversation with Bagley about the origins of this group of attackers. Among them were sioux, and their behavior shows that they just not want to avenge becauseof previous land conflict.

At that time, the U.S. government sought to mine the gold deposits found in the Piedmont Peak area of ??northern Colorado. Go to the centralized reserve area delineated by Fort Laramie. So a very ‘wit’ plan was made.

They deceived the chiefs of the two tribes to Fort Leon, saying that they were called to come to the meeting. In fact, they forced them to give up their land. Of course, the chiefs did not agree, and they were dried up.

The two tribes immediately went to war with the U.S. government after learning of the death of their chief, and this is what the U.S. government wants.

Although the backward attackers were brave, but they were not opponents of the modernized and professionalized American army, so they were losing ground.

The encounter between these two tribes was then widely spread throughout sioux alliance and caused sympathy from other sioux tribes.

The son of one of the chieftains of sioux tribe is a visionary young man. He is extremely handsome and stronger than ordinary people. The white people has contacted with him and appraised him as a fit Apollo god.

He realized the decline of his nation and hoped to be changed. He once went to the white land to learn their knowledge.

And this encounter of the same race made him finally realize that he wanted to fight against the invading white people. He must be able to unite all the forces that can be united.

So he spent a year traveling through most of the United States, from the west to the southeast.

He hope to contact the local Seminoles, but when he arrived, Seminole, who had just experienced three Seminole wars, had been completely broken by the US military.

They chose to surrender and accept the relocation of the US government, they willing to leave their homes and leave the land where their ancestors lived for generations.

Because they have lost many people for this land, they can no longer persist, but he is not without gain.

He eventually found a large tribe at the junction of Alabama and Florida.

However, as a sioux, when he first arrived in the other’s territory, he was almost killed by an American spy. After all, in such an era, it is quite normal for enemies to send their people to the Americans and become traitors.

Fortunately, he had good luck and met the US military who came to ‘law enforcement’. After killing an American captain with a bow and arrow, he gained the trust of the other party.

After revealing his identity, he made a covenant between the two tribes: the tribe where the sioux is located will find a new home for them in the western land, but in the face of the invasion of the whites, they let go of the hatred and differences between the subordinates and fought together for there homeland.

Later, in order to inspire the morale of the tribe members and increase his prestige, he and the chief planned an attack on many towns.

I have to say that he was born with the potential to become a strategist, and under his leadership and distribution, the revenge operation was unexpectedly successful.

Except for a little setback in the church, there was almost no damage. And in the subsequent evacuation operations, with the entire clan’s old, weak, sick peoples, but they also can not see the tribal horse butt dumped by Lieutenant Colonel Bagley.

They dispersed the elite knights into small teams, continually harassed and chased the US troops, and after personally leading the team off, they finally covered the entire tribal evacuation.

But it was also blocked by Bagley in this forest by the river. Yes, blocked in the forest, and the chief of the tribe took the tribes to the west to find a new home. Hundreds of warriors were left with those people.
