Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 809

Some memories are so profound that they take root in one's heart, not easily erased with the passage of time, even after a decade or two.

And the people who have been important in one's life are not easily forgotten or replaced.

In the Wolong District Arena for Field War at the Dragon Island, Brian and Eric both held a pistol in their hands. One man was wearing white while the other wore all black; from a distance, they looked like they came from hell or another ungodly domain, posed and ready.

"I won't let you win this time!" Brian bellowed. His voice was cold and arrogant.

Eric scoffed. "I hope you can still be this cocky at the end when I've beaten you!"

Lenny and Tony, personal protectors to Brian and Eric respectively, stood at the side. They exchanged glances at their masters' backs, and they both noticed that the other protector's face was as nervous and heavy as his own.

The announcer, also the person in charge of the arena, was holding up a flare gun. "Ready..." As Eric and Brian's eyes met across the distance, a loud 'BANG' emitted from the gun. Both Brian and Eric got into fight poses, ready to strike.

BANG BANG BANG!

Da da da!

Both their guns shot immediately and spontaneously. Brian and Eric dashed across the barrier to reach their second destination point. When they reached it, they discarded their original guns and took up the revolvers that were there, cocked and ready. As soon as each had the revolver in his hand, he turned around and pointed the gun at his opponent, square in the face.

The men's movements were so synchronous that it seemed like one man was in front of a mirror and it's reflecting back his movements. The crowd was still, anxious to see who would win and quiet, unable to express their appreciation for the game.

"Who do you think will win?" Lenny asked, her voice low but steady. She kept his eyes on the two men inside the arena but her question was directed at Tony.

Tony glanced at Brian and Eric and then at Lenny. "It's hard to say..." he said.

Lenny frowned briefly and watched Tony. Of course she was only asking to see if Tony would say it. Brian Long had a much higher chance of winning.
