Unknown Power

They came at us from all angles

Daring us to have the slightest bit of revenge in our souls

With the small little girl, smirking her devilish grin

While others revel in the glory of the upcoming attack

The three elders touching hands, palms up to one another

Sense no threat as they swiftly glided along the icy ground

With their heads held high

This is all business

As they stalked our every move

In the rhythm of the Sun

Yet the three wise ones did halt their slinking advance

Shock and pure terror crossing all the guard's faces

With the gentle breeze swooshing their long black robes lightly across their ankles

All the sound in that frozen meadow

Was the beating of large hearts

Appearing from the edge of the forest

Stunning waves of heat echoed across the flat clearing

As we all turned to see such a force to stop the law itself

We set our eyes on our supposed enemies…

And yet our allies had joined us

First stepping out from their safe boundaries were two rows of beasts

Circling around what they were to protect

Us

Hunched, lean, backs with massive dipping shoulder blades sticking out from under their fur

Muscle wrapping tightly around their legs as they flexed intimidatingly with unknown power

Muzzles curved over, baring their teeth

Deep, menacing, rumbles of sound coming from their chests

Eyes gleaming with anticipation

Ears flattened against their huge skulls

Paws extending into claws, digging into the soil with rage

Yet another surprise awaits them.

There was a low growl of authority from the shadow of the forest

And with hearts booming a drum beat rhythm

Two huge monsters

Stepped out into the meadow

Obviously being in charge of this army of creatures

All ears went up, all heads snapped into their direction

While we all took in their appearance.

There were gasps of disbelief due north of us

Greater than the rest

These two massive bodies slid out of the underbrush in the most graceful way

One bigger than the other yet still equal

They stood up on their haunches

Clearly showing that they could be taller than the Twin Towers would ever be

Ear splitting howls ripped through the air

As the others followed suit.

Bloodlust took over every portion of my body

As I look back at the bewildered faces of the guard

Air hissing up my throat

My vision clouding with red fury

In synchronism, we all slowly settle into our hunting crouches

Taking in our advantage

As a hint of a smile curves at the corner of my lips

They cannot

Contain

Our Unknown Power…
