coat and he started acting like a tiger. Tar-uka said,” its time to go back home.” “We got to show
our village we made a correct choice in going treasure hunting.”
During their march back to the village they encountered a white tiger. It was pure white and
had a white aura. its appearance stunned us still since we stole its belongings.” who dares to steal
my wealth?!” boomed the west. “Those who aren’t ready for the emperor’s curse will die here!”
The voice of the white tiger echoed from stone to stone like a pin ball. The villagers trembled
to the ground. Kneeling and begging to be forgiven. Everyone but Tar-uka kneeled.
“You there, Young one, do you know no fear?” Boomed again the west.
“Not really, you are really scary but I’m confident in breaking the curse from the emperor.”
said Tar-uka. “Also I know the bond between you and your siblings.”
“Then you have the confidence in breaking it?” asked the west. “Can you free us? If you can,
then wear my coat to prove you’re self you can free my siblings.”
Tar-uka puts on the white coat, and then suddenly a burst of white aura poured on him. Then
the white image went into him like a merge. The coat is now alive, all the claw lines were glowing
in blue and his boot was transferred into a white boot. The whole outfit looks like a winter wolf,
because of the white fur and blue glowing claws. Suddenly the tiger amulet started to glow. The
supposed to be dead coin started glowing in white it felt so alive, almost that it can breathe.
“Well lets go back and report that this hunt is dangerous” said and adult. “I think Otto-man
discourages us to anything with a curse!” “Take off that coat and throw away the coin the metal
bars are all we need!”
“But what difference is it with us compared with the tomb raiders?” ask Tar-uka “also I
promised him that I would break the curse for him and his siblings.” “It’s a promise I must keep.”
The adults looked very inpatients with Tar-uka, they thought that Tar-uka is just a stubborn
amateur who’s going to mess up the clan. But Tar-uka and the adults didn’t talk to each other
since until they got back to the village.
“Otto-man, I strongly suggest we stop the hunt because the treasures belong to the souls of the
symbols.” Said one of the adults” “If going on like this what would happen to our families if they
are angered?”
Otto-man stopped and though for a second, he took a long sip of tea and glared at Tar-uka.
“Young one what do you have to say?” asked Otto-man,”Why do you want to continue the raid?”
“Because I promised them I will finish the hunt, and I will free them all,” said Tar-uka,” “It’s a
promise I made with my heart.”
“Then it’s continuing with hunting it is, wish you luck in your adventure for glory to our
clan.” said Otto-man. “Tonight we eat big, and party!”
That night they partied and cheered. They honored the young boy for his bravery for making
impossible promises.
The next day, Tar-uka left the village to the east, wearing the coat and holding the amulet,
he can feel the way he is going like it’s taking him to the East’s tomb. On the way the sky started
turn greenish and the atmospheres became gloomy. Then suddenly it started blowing gusts of
wind from a cave. Then a whirlwind spun right to them, making them carried in the whirlwind.
All were effected buy not Tar-uka. It almost looked like the coat controlled the wind which was
headed for him. Then a Azure aura appeared. It floated down and went in front of Tar-uka.
“Who are you?” ask the light
“I’m Tar-uka, are you the Azure Dragon?” replied Tar-uka.
