 DrangMai, BiaVai, BiaBơngBơh, BiaSơngLong and BiaSơdrăngMatAnar went to BiaChăm’s house first. They wanted BiaChăm to join them.
“BiaChăm – Go – Go, find and fight against BiaBơla and BiaBơlang, the younger sisters of AtauYangBul. Men fight against men and women will fight against women”, they called BiaChăm.
BiaChăm emerged and saw beautiful girls standing on her front yard. She invited the girls to go in and get some drinks. They all went in, get drinks and took a short conversation.
“Go! Go and show them who I, BiaChăm, am”, said BiaChăm, hurrying the others.

Then all of them, DrangMai, BiaVai, BiaBơngBơh, BiaSơngLong, BiaSơdrăngMatAnar and BiaChăm marched away. Then went and went. At last, they arrived to the village where BiaBơla and BiaBơlang were living. Meanwhile, it was morning and BiaBơla was sitting on his weaving loom next to a window. The sunlights went through the window, lay on her face and her long smooth hair. She was weaving cloth.
“Is this house of BiaBơla, AtauYangBul’s sister?” asked BiaChăm.
“Yes, this is my house. What do you want?”, BiaBơla replied.
BiaChăm didn’t waste anymore time. She immediately went in the house and by a long knife she killed BiaBơla who had not have any awareness. BiaBơla died she lay on her loom. Sunlights still lay on her body it looked like she was sleeping. So pitiful!
Then, BiaChăm and the others left. They found the way to BiaBơlang’s house. They asked people and people guided them to BiaBơlang’s house.
“BiaBơlang”, they called while they was on the front yard of BiaBơlang, “ Are you here?”
As soon as they called, a girl quickly went out.
“Oh strangers! Go in and get something to drink. Then, let me know what you want”, BiaBơlang invited them in.
BiaChăm and others followed BiaBơlang in her house. They got drinks and had a happy conversation. All of them happy and talked with others as like good friends.
“BiaBơlang, you are AtauYangBul’s sister, right?”, asked BiaChăm.
“Oh! Why do you want to know that thing?” said BiaBơlang, “Yes, I am. My parent named me BiaBơlang and I am exactly one sister of AtauYangBul”. Still happy, BiaBơlang answered her guests honestly.
“Look!”, BiaChăm pointed at sky, “Are they AtauYangBul and BokKiekLaDiaKlaKong, your brothers? They were fighting GiỡHreng, GiỡTuKrong, Giông, my brothers and including my husband, DămPhan. They fight with no reason. They fight only because they don’t like them, my brothers and husband”.
Then, BiaChăm grabbed BiaBơlang’s hair. She started slapped strongly on her face that made BiaBơlang pain. BiaBơlang turned angry, she escaped from BiaChăm and immediately ran to other room, grabbed her shield and knife. She flew up and was ready to fight against BiaChăm and the others. BiaChăm, DrangMai, BiaVai, BiaBơngBơh, BiaSơngLong, BiaSơdrăngMatAnar followed right after her. They also get their shields and knives on their hands. They started fighting. The sound the shields and the knives banged on others made a part of sky sonorous. Their fight ‘s also men’s fight. They punched, kicked, wrestled, burked as like men. nighttime also like daytime, they kept fighting. Days and days passed their fight still didn’t end.
 BiaBơlang used her shield to burn DrangMai. A flame went out from her shield. It reached on sky and spreaded out on ground. It chased after DrangMai to burn her. DrangMai ran she tried to ascape from the frame but the frame’s always after her. She cried. Her cry echoed whole of the frorest. DrangMai ran to moutains, the flame followed her to the moutains. DrangMai ran to fields, the flame followed her to the fields. She ran and ran. At last, she felt too tired that she couldn’t run anymore. She stopped and the flame immediately covered her. It burned her clothes and her hair. But, DrangMai didn’t scare she stood still and continued fight against BiaBơlang. They continued to punch, kick, wrestl and burke the other.
Then, BiaBơlang took out her silvery rope. He planned to tied DrangMai. The silvery rope automatically flew toward DrangMai to catch and tie her. DrangMai had no choice but to run. She ran and ran trying to ascape from that rope but she couldn’t. Then, she couldn’t run anymore, couldn’t force her feet to move. So, the rope reached her and tied her tightly.
But, DrangMai didn’t give up, she took out her small silver knife and started cut the silvery rope in parts. Short time later, she got rid of the rope and got again on her feet. The fight continued.
    BiaBơlang took out her silvery net and threw toward DrangMai. The silvery net flew toward DrangMai and like other things the silvery net would chase after her till it caught her. DrangMai one more time started running. As like a person who lost her mind, she ran madly, crying. For days, she couldn’t run anymore and she was caught. The silvery net covered her in. While BiaBơlang was enjoying her win getting DrangMai in her silvery net, DrangMai reached her small silvery knife and got it on her hand. She cut the silvery net in parts. Their fight continued again. It seemed not to have the end. No one won and no one lost though many days had passed.
“Sister”, called DrangMai, “Take a rest and let Sister BiaVai try”.
DrangMai left, BiaVai replaced her fighting against BiaBơlang. BiaVai bravely stepped toward BiaBơlang their fight started.
As like DrangMai and BiaBơlang had, BiaVai and BiaBơlang also had violent fight. They punched, kicked, burked and wrestled. Again BiaBơlang used her magical things. BiaVai was chased and burned by the flame BiaBơlang created. Though, her clothes was burned completely, she didn’t scare she continued standing up and fight against BiaBơlang. Then, the silvery chased after her. She ran and was caught and tied after that but she got chance cutting and getting rid of the rope. The fight continued till BiaBơlang threw her silvery net toward BiaVai. BiaVai started running till the silvery net got her in.
BiaBơlang laugh enjoying her win.
“See”, said BiaBơlang, “I, BiaBơlang have never lost. You had better lay still at there if you don’t want be hurted anymore”.
But, BiaVai didn’t give up she got her silvery knife and cut the silvery net. She got out and continued fighting against BiaBơlang. For many days, the fight still didn’t end.
“Sister BiaVai”, called up BiaChăm, “Take a rest. BiaBơngBơh will replace you”.
BiaVai left and that time BiaBơngBơh went toward replacing her fighting against BiaBơlang. And after that, it was BiaSơngLong and then BiaSơdrăngMatAnar. All things happened like things had happened.
At last, BiaChăm stepped forward. She called BiaBơlang.

“BiaBơlang”, said BiaChăm, “ I will fight with you. I will hit you, hit you till you realize who I am, BiaChăm.”
