Chapter 1
Clockwork
"When do we go in?" Asked Dusk, who was pacing (well, floating) back and forth behind me. I was looking out at the Observatory from behind a thick veil of fog generated by Vortex.
"When Sel gives the signal." I didn't even give him a glance, since it was at least the seventh time he'd asked that. I still couldn't fathom how someone as impatient as Dusk could be compatible with Clockwise.
Clockwise... I took a deep breath and exhaled. I never thought I'd be in a real fight with my master. Let alone a war against him.
Glimmer appeared from between, snapping me out of my thoughts. She chirped, then landed on Dusk's shoulder. "That's the signal," I said, getting up on shaking legs.
The rest of the ghosts gathered. There was Dusk, Nocturne, Vortex, Danny, Plasmius, Undergrowth, and I. The first group of ghosts attacked, drawing the attention of everyone in the observatory, giving us free access to the side doors.
Once inside, I lead the way through the different hallways. The plan was to get to the grand Observant and the high council, and take them out. Most of the guards were gone to the front to fight, but a few remained. Nocturne and Vortex took care of them quickly, though.
We finally made it to the Grand Observant's room, and Dusk barged right in. We followed behind. The more time we spent in here, though, the more anxious I got. I didn't know if it was because I couldn't see the outcome (thanks Sel -_-), that it was my first time at war (Watching hundreds of wars in the time line didn't help...) or the fact that I was about to try to destroy the ghosts that were once my higher.
Like I assumed, the Grand Observant and the few other Observants in the High council were in the room, along with several guards.
What happened next was a blur. I remember the Grand Observant glaring at me, as though trying to destroy me with his eye. The painful screams of the guards and other Observers didn't even register in my mind until someone hit the Grand Observant and I snapped out of it.
Everything seemed to be moving so fast, and for once, I didn't know what was going on around me. It wasn't long before all the Observers were nothing more than piles of goo on the ground. I looked down at my shaking hands, noticing ectoplasm leaking through the gloves. How did that even get there?
Someone grabbed my arm and I was dragged down the familiar hallways to the front of the building, where most of the fighting was taking place. As the other ghosts flew off to fight, I took a deep breath to compose myself. Clockwise had taught me to fight, but that was just me and him. Now there were so manny enemies...
I clutched my staff tightly and took another breath. No turning back now.
Okay, I think I finally got over that writer's block
thanks for your ideas :) I mixed them with my ideas and I couldn't stop writing XP
Sorry the Chapter's so small, by the way. They should get longer.
