I groaned as I woke up. I felt horrible. My side and chest hurt. I had a pounding headache. All in all I didn't feel well. I looked down to my stomach. It had a hospital gown covering it. Great I lifted it up and saw nearly smooth skin. A few scars were still there. The worst was the Y cuts from being dissected. But the melted skin was gone. Usually whatever wounds I get in ghost form transfer over to my human side. Maybe that's the sideeffect from his ecto-rays. It only melts the ectoplasm on ghosts. I sat up and placed my feet on the ground. I looked around. A small camera was in the corner of the room. I went to stand up just as the door opened. The pale guy came through the door and stopped.
Then he sighed and said "I guess that I shouldn't be surprised since you managed to escape even though you shattered your left side and I pumped you with enough sedatives to knock out three grown men because any less wouldn't affect you. So what are you?"
I didn't answer. I looked around for a second before I got completely up. Then I began to walk to the bathroom. The guy stopped me before I got three steps.
He then said "I like your enthusiasm but when I gorgeous back you had two large holes in your side and chest. I don't know how but after about ten minutes it began to heal faster than anything I've seen. Now what are you?"
I turned towards him and began to study him. There were a few scars on his arms and a bite mark on his neck. He was glowing a little. Wait. Not glowing. Sparkling. I almost began to all out laugh. But I didn't. After a second I realized that it looked like he took a bath in glitter. He took a few steps back and I saw that he walked with the most graceful steps that I've ever seen. And he walked faster than most humans. I then began to concentrate and my head filled with voices. I focused on the guy in front of me's voice.
"What is she? And why is she staring at me? I don't think that she can see anything unusual about me. Even if she does she'll probably something other than the fact that in not human."
I stopped concentrating and the voice disappeared. I had what I needed. I turned and began to walk towards the bathroom again. He stopped me again.
I turned towards him and said "I need to use the bathroom. Or is that against the law?"
He let go and I walked into the bathroom. I locked the door and saw that there was no cameras in here. Good. I could have confronted the doctor about him not being human but I wanted to escape. I could always talk to him later. I went ghost and phased through the wall. I began to fall towards the ground. I smiled and began to defy gravity by floating. I began to float away when I heard a cry of pain coming from the forest. I turned towards it and blasted off. I heard the scream again and I followed it till I saw a lady in a dress. There was a mountain lion attacking her. I dove down behind the lion and grabbed it around the middle. I lifted it up and grew it to the side. I grabbed the lady and jumped into the air she screamed again.
I yelled back "Quiet. I'm getting you to the city."
She then yelled "But my son is in there. You have to get him."
I nodded and dropped her off in the city. Then I turned back and raced into the forest again. I heard someone yell mommy and I followed it. I saw the little boy. I smiled till I saw the mountain lion crawling towards him. I dropped in between the boy and the lion. The lion roared and pounced. I grabbed the little boy and tried to take off. I failed because the lion jumped on my back and began to tear it up. I gasped in pain and threw it off. I began to run full speed for the city. I heard the lion behind me. Great. I made it and gave the kid to the lady. Then I heard a roar and turned to see the lion coming for me. I took off back into the forest to lead it away from the city. I looked over my shoulder to see it chasing me. Good. I looked back to in front of me just in time to get clothes lined by a branch. Ow. I laid on the ground for a moment before I realized that I was being chased. I got up and tried to take off again. But I had started to run when the lion jumped on me. It's claws dug into my skin. I went intangible and it sank through me. Why didn't I think of that earlier. I kept running so I could get the lion as far away from the city as possible. Then I ran into a problem. Literally. I ran into a field of red flowers that began to burn me. My intangibility failed and I fell as my legs gave out. The lion pounced and I instinctively raised my arm to try to cover myself. A bunch of crystal rose up above me and I felt my powers returning. There was a thump and I turned to see the lion sliding off the dome. I blinked and sighed. I laid back and sat up as pain shot through me. I slowly stood up and nearly fell back down as black stole the edges of my vision. Great. I took a deep breath and began to float. A little better. I released the breath and let the dome dissolve. The burning feeling returned and I changed back to human. It burned. I threw out a arm as I saw the lion consign towards me and surprisingly the field began to die. It was like it began to speed up time around the field. The flowers wilted and turned brown. The lion disappeared and black took my vision over.
Clockworks Pov.
I stood up as I felt the time stream alter slightly. I closed my eyes and gazed upon the broken time stream. The end was coming and the time stream began to break down. The Observants were in panic as they lost all power. Most ghosts were losing power. I unfortunately was one of them. All I could do was look at the time stream. My time powers were gone and I was unable to make portals. Young Daniel was losing sleep as he tried to sort this out but was unable to because he hasn't heard the legends. Even I was terrified. Pharaoh was also. Dan hasn't heard of it yet but I'm sure he'll escape and figure out. Then he'll try to go against it and be destroyed. Because even though not many ghost realized but the legends were only half true. The only thing that was wrong is that in the legends it wasn't to much more powerful than pharaoh. It's wrong. It make pharaohs power look like a dim lightbulb against the sun. It has the power to destroy the very essence of life if it wanted. But unfortunately it wanted to cause pain and terror amongst everything. Because the legend of Degath is stronger and worse than the legends. And only one little girl can stop her. The one that is already finding her time powers. Little Krystal Fenton.
