Chapter 3: What in the name of ….. ?
Luke now sat in a car, a lexus, contemplating all that had happened to him he still couldn't fathom why a million year old geezer would even want to look at him. The car was the elf's who he found out to be called Foawr. He sat there thinking what would happen to him next. First he wasn't a rider second he didn't get his license what would his parents think. Suddenly Luke shouted stop. The elf slammed the brake "what the f***," the car screeched to a stop "what happened!". " Sorry, but my parents, I have to tell them." The elf groaned" you could have told nicely, its not like there's anti matter bomb on the road." "Anti-matter..?" " forget it, you wouldn't understand any way. Ok then Mister, directions please."
An hour later Luke walked up the porch to the door. He rang the bell and shouted "mom! I'm home." There wasn't any reply which was strange,he then tried the door which he found to be unlocked which was even stranger. Nobody in his house ever left the door unlocked. He walked in and was greeted by chaos. The furniture was smashed, the carpet and wallpaper torn to shreds and there were several black and charred holes in the walls. Luke sank to his knees, completely blown. He saw two badges on the floor he picked them up and saw that it was his parents science department badges. It had blood splattered all over it. At that moment something broke inside Luke. He felt empty, lost. He felt he was going to go mad, and there was only one way to cure him of his insanity. He sobbed, he cried like he had never before.
Luke barely noticed someone put a hand on him and comfort him. Slowly Luke's grief left him. He stood up and he felt his grief being replaced by a cold persisting anger. Anger so great to those that had done this he felt all other feeling, thought, emotion be replaced by a steely determination fueled by his rage. He looked to Foawr and with a trembling voice said "can you find out who did this and how?", Foawr looked at Luke concernedly and said "yes just wait a moment" closing his eyes.
Luke looked up from his sitting place at the stairs when Foawr walked into the room. "well?" asked Luke. "there's something real fishy here. I can sense magic here ,of course, but ive never sensed such a brand of magic. Most of it is standard but very strong riders magic, but how did that come to be I cannot fathom", "well that would be my parents's ". I'm proud to know that they didn't go without a fight" Foawr looked quizzically at him " your parents are riders". "yes" replied Luke "both of them". Foawr looked troubled " you're not by chance son of the Aquas, are you". Luke didn't understand " yes , im Luke Aqua".
Foawr looked as though one had dropped the bomb on him. He went slack jawed and staggered "holy f***, we have to get out of here now." But what …" spluttered Luke "NOW!" shouted Foawr and literally dragged Luke out of the house. On his way out Luke noticed a picure on the wall of his parents a baby himself and another woman whom he didn't know. That woman was an elf. He extricated himself from Foawr's grasp and pocketed the picture and looked around and blinked out a few tears as a whirlwind of bitter sweet memories of the people he had loved and lived with for 18 years blew through him. Luke closed his eyes and filled himself with the same cold anger that had filled him earlier.
Luke stepped out onto the lawn with his parent's badges in one hand and the photo he had salvaged from within the house. Foawr stood outside looking very impatient "well you took your time." He snapped, Luke shook his head and said "we should call the police they'll find out who did this and why" "they shouldn't, this shouldn't have happened, no matter we should destroy all evidence." "step back" said Foawr and added "I'm sorry but your parents would have wanted this" Foawr raised one of his hands and said a few words so fast and low Luke didn't grasp what he said. Immediately the house crumpled inward and exploded into a huge fire ball. Luke shouted in anger and turned to Foawr and attacked him with his mind with all his might fueling his attack with anger. Foawr staggered by the force of the attack and his primary defenses shattered but his secondary walls strained but held. Foawr instinctively attacked back at Luke and broke through his defenses. He muttered "slytha" and Luke crumpled to the ground. Foawr stared at the sleeping form of Luke and whispered "the power of the blood of Eragon shadeslayer shows". Foawr lifted Luke and placed him in the car and seated himself at the drivers seat. He gunned the engine and looked back at Luke and smiled shaking his head "he's what we need. " and drove of with a fiery inferno at their tails and to the approaching wails of sirens.
