Chapter 17: Ageless Regan

Regan emerged from the kitchen bearing the meal he prepared for breakfast “stop getting angry over her, she is just pained that her plans failed, come let's have dinner honey” he said.

Diana blushed after she heard the statement, she scurried away shyly, to clean herself, she brushed her mouth, and the both of them ate breakfast together.

“We should visit the beach, we live close” he suggested, Diana nodded, the both of them walked out of the house, wearing white outfits, holding hands.

They walked along the beach with their bare feet, it was summer, but they were walking along the coastline, the sad along the path is wet because the sea kept pushing towards the shore, and retreat.

Occasionally, the water splashes on their feet, it was refreshing, Diana bent down, and cupped the water in her palm, and returned it to the sea, she smiled brilliantly.

“Can we do these everyday?” she asked, Regan nodded, he could sense her youthful excitement.

“Help!” a scream came from the direction of some group of people ahead, Diana looked towards the direction.

And saw that, some men were preventing a woman from entering the sea “mommy!” they heard a child's voice screamed from the sea.

The water was taking her away “Regan, help her” Diana pleaded, Regan nodded, and ran towards the sea, and delved in.

Diana stared nervously at the body of the water without blinking, she suddenly saw him at the position of the floating child.

He grabbed her, and suddenly a sea snake reared it head from the water body, the group of people, and the woman whose child was taken by the sea snake jilted.

The sea snake squinted its eyes at Regan, he seemed to recall him “hey friend, I know you missed me” Regan infuriated it.

The snake quickly remembered, and bared his figs, it flogged it body at the water, 'causing a giant wave, sending Regan some meters away.

Diana saw all these situations, she blamed herself from sending Regan in there, she exhaled and delved into the sea, and swam towards them.

Regan saw that, she is swimming towards the direction 'have this” he threw something far away from where the sea snake and they, were.

The sea snake quickly swam towards the direction of what he threw away eagerly, “take her, and leave quickly, Diana” he instructed her, she received the child and swam out, directly.

The sea snake got angrier when it realizes that Regan tricked him, she swam with great speed towards Regan.

Regan delved into the water, and the body of them surged at each other, he brought out a water flute, and started playing it.

Suddenly, there was a tempest in the sea, the pressure on the sea snake, made it rear it head, and saw the coming wave towards the direction.

Regan came out inside the water, and waved it over “I would have love to join you guys, but I have a party to attend to” he said, and excused himself, swimming towards the sea shore.

The sea snake tried to stop him, when another sea snake, its entire body was red, it opened its mouth, and fireballs started shooting towards the sea snake like missiles.

Regan came out of the sea, and met Diana who was trying to rescue the kid from shock, “how is she doing?” Regan asked with great concern.

Diana sighed heavily “she will be fine, but, she is unconscious for her, and she is still in shock, that will be tantamount to trauma, kids are too fragile” she answered pouting her lips.

Regan laughed loud and nudged her, “hey, don't you want to have kids?” he asked jokingly.

She blushed, and lowered her head, her eyesight locked with her toes, dirty thoughts started creeping into her mind.

“Don't tell me you don't like kids?” Regan reiterated, with an exaggerated facial expression, she ratted her head “no, not true, I love kids a lot” she confessed.

He chuckled and lay on the beach sand, the kid was wrapped in a clean fur clothe, as instructed by Regan, the war in the sea was raging strong, and the storm in the sea, was mind-boggling.

Diana looked towards the direction and was frightened, she never believed the existence of sea snake, and now she is seeing just two.

Regan chirped in “you don't have to worry about them, it is just a friendly match” the fireballs hitting the other sea snake contradict his words.

Diana lay on the beach sand too, she has many questions to ask him “how many years are you?” she asked, trying to find out about him.

Regan chuckled “millions of years, I don't have all my memories back” he responded to her, Diana's eyes widened, she squinted her eyes at him and became suspicious.

She examined Regan and couldn't see any trait that he has lived that long on Earth, “is this the real you? Or there is someone you take after…” she tried to put some comments together, sounding complicated.

Regan chuckled “nothing of such, I don't transform, or imitate anything, this is just me, I am cursed to be a wanderer all my life” he sighed heavily remembering the terrible memory.

Regan turned to her “it was long time ago, when the gods were appointed to take care of the humans, I was the god of clock, and how it works. I travel through time, I go to the future and the past”.

“Tension rose among the gods, one of the fashions, forced me to visit the future and discover a tool that could eliminate the world. And the other fellow gods, but I couldn't do it, I was cursed to be a wanderer”!

He said and turned to her with a serious face “I can never grow or get older, than this” he told her and sat up.

Regan watched her intently for sometimes, “do you believe it?” Diana nodded.

“I do, but do you believe the curse has a solution to it?” she inquired.
