On with the story peeps!
Whispers of Winds beyond the Depths.
Chapter 1: A realization.
The night was dark,darker than usual. All the brawlers went to sleep. Dan helped Shun to walk and they went to their room too. Slowly,one by one,everyone fell asleep. The bakugans going to sleep in their own compartment.
Dan shifted to his side and faced the raven haired teen on the opposite bed,who was staring at the ceiling,lost in thoughts.
"Hey, Shun..."
"Hn..."
"Something wrong buddy?"
"Hm..."
"What is it?"
"Don't know."
"What is that supposed to mean?"
Shun sighed in confusion, "I have no idea but I've got a feeling like I'm forgetting something."
"Forgetting what?"
"The thing I can't remember!"
"Oh..." Dan raced his mind here and there but couldn't find any thing that his friend could possibly forget, "What do you feel about it?"
"I..." Shun thought for a while, "I feel some sort of...emptiness inside me. Like a part of my soul is missing."
Dan couldn't figure out the source of this but he said, "Well,we'll figure it out tomorrow,right now we need to sleep."
The Ventus brawler closed his eyes tiredly,confused from the inside about all this. Both friends fell asleep.
…...
Black...dark pitch black...was all he could see around him,he couldn't even see himself. He looked around in the depths of nothingness but found...nothing. Suddenly,he saw an orb of green light glowing dim far away. He began to run towards it. When he reached near,he found the orb changing shape. Slowly,it took the form of a...a...bird?...no...a...phoenix...which screeched with all its might. He gasped. The phoenix looked familiar. It looked at him with tearful eyes before speaking, "Shun...don't leave me like this...Shun..."
The pain filled call echoed beyond the depths. Shun's eyes widened, "Sky...Skyress?"
The phoenix nodded,speaking once more, "Please...Shun...you can't leave me alone...remember me...you can't lose your attribute...the winds are calling for you...they are howling...come...save me from being lost in darkness...Shun..."
Crystalline droplets began to fall in front of Shun from the phoenix's eyes. A bright light emitted,almost blinding and the phoenix began to disappear. Shun called to her,crying himself, "No...come back...Skyress...I'm coming...wait for me...Skyress..."
Darkness started to over whelm him,suffocating him to death. He tried to breathe but to no avail as he choked. All of a sudden,fear took over him,fear of being lost in nothingness,fear of being defeated by ecstasy,fear of death... He desperately tried to scream and nearly succeeded,as he was being shaken by strong gusts of swishing winds.
…...
Shun Kazami woke with a suppressed scream. He frantically looked around. A pair of strong hands were holding his shoulders tightly as a soothing voice tried to comfort him, "Shun...hey...it's okay...you're alright buddy...every thing's fine...listen to me...you're okay...look at me...come on...try to relax...take deep breathes...it's alright..."
He looked at the figure who was sitting on his bed,holding him by his shoulders,speaking softly, "Calm down...it was just a dream...you're alright...you're okay...I'm right here...you're not alone..."
The raven haired teen began to shake violently as realization hit him,how could he forget his guardian,his attribute...
Dan looked at him worriedly and instantly pulled him into his arms,trying to calm him down. Gradually,he relaxed,still feeling shaken by the nightmare's reality.
The Ventus brawler tried to speak, "Dan...she's...she's dieing..."
Dan looked at his friend, "Who?"
"Skyress..."
The Pyrus brawler was confused now but he tried to comfort his frightened friend, "No...she wont...We'll save her in time...I promise..."
He let go of Shun but still held his hand reassuringly. Shun looked up,finally getting a grip. He slowly told his concerned friend about his dream and voiced his fears in barely audible whispers. Dan comforted him to the best extent and assured him that they would do something about it next day.
He forced his best friend to lie down and sleep which seemed almost impossible for the teen as the nightmare haunted him whenever he closed his eyes. Dan stroked his hair and held his hand in his own to let him know that he was there. After a while,the Ventus brawler fell asleep and Dan sighed in relief,thinking about the event and plan for the next day.
…...
The sun emerged from the bowl of night,making the stars twinkle one last time and vanish. The brawlers woke as usual,ate breakfast with Dan and Keith forcing Shun to eat something and Mira going here and there,serving the rest. After all the commotion,Marucho went to his laboratories and others came in the lounge.
They discussed the last night's event,planning to rescue the phoenix bakugan from Wiseman's hands. They tracked the location which happened to be the volcano island. Now,they needed a perfect plan...
Shun occassionly tried to protest about it as he felt himself responsible for all this and had no intentions to drag the others in the mess but everyone told him that they were friends so they'll do it together. This annoyed the teen but he he managed to keep himself under control.
…...
Somewhere on a boulder,surrounded by lava,a certain some one's figure stood,laughing evilly at a balled bakugan in his hand. The bakugan was black instead of being hopeful green...
