The Nightmare.
*WARNING: IF YOU HAVE A WEAK STOMACHE WITH BLOOD IT MAY NOT BE THE BEST TO READ THIS CHAPTER*
And as always Enjoy!
The sharp claws from his own brother, that was now a monster, made a huge scratch across Chris's face just missing his eye by a hair. The wound started to bleed out red. The monster got up and stood looking at Chris. Chris sat up and put his hand on his cheek and felt the drops of blood run down his face.
"Chris!" yelled Martin
Chris looked up in discuss to find himself lying in bed. The birds were chirping and it had stopped raining. Was I dreaming? Chris thought. He sat up and touched is face, it was still bleeding from the scratch he gotten. He got up from his bunk and checked the one above him, where Martin was usually sleeping but he wasn't there. Martin entered the room to see that his brother was turned away from him.
"Chris what are you doing"
"Huh... Martin stay back!" Chris yelled
"Whoa! Chris where did you get that scratch?! Are you okay? What happened bro?" Martin asked concerned
Martin went to approach Chris but after all that just happened Chris was so confused if he was still in a dream or not, so he backed away. Martin was sad to see his brother this way and asked
"Did you have another nightmare?"
Knowing that it wasn't a dream Chris ran over to Martin embraced him with a hug and started to cry. Martin was shocked by the way he reacted but welcomed him with a hug.
"Are you okay now?" Martin said smiling
"A little" Chris replied back with tears running down his face
Chris then let go of his brother told him to sit down and said "I need to tell you something".
After Chris explained his dream to Martin, he looked at his brother in fear and hugged him to reassure that he wouldn't do such a thing. Martin than got out of the chair he was sitting in and walked over to the first aid kit to get some bandages. He walked back over to Chris and started to fix the scratch on his face. While Martin was fixing him, Chris stared at his brothers eyes and thought about how lucky he was to have a brother like Martin. After Chris was all bandaged up they both walked out of their room and standing outside of the door was Aviva.
"Oh...Hey...Um I was just going to check to see how you guys were. Do you want to talk about what happened on Zach's jet?"
The two bros nodded and headed toward the chairs by the table and sat, Aviva followed along. They both started to explain what happened that day and why he did what he did.
"UGH! I knew he was up to no good!" Aviva said angrily "But the one thing I don't understand is how he planned to use you like a weapon."
Martin then replied "He told me that he wanted to convert our human DNA with an animals to turn us into...CHRIS!"
"He wanted to turn you into Chris?" Aviva said confused
"What? NO! Chris your dream!" shouted Martin as if he thought of a brilliant idea
"You mean nightmare" Chris said dreadfully
"What does this have to do with Chris's nightmare?" Aviva wondered
"Chris's drea... I mean nightmares have been connected to what will or did happen. His first nightmare was about a mysterious huge shadowy figure, who was Zach, using the serum. His second nightmare was about me... turning into a monster a-a-and hurting him" Martin choked on those last words. He knows that he would do no such thing to a brother he really loved.
"So does this mean he will plan to inject you with a serum first to turn you against the team? Now that's just wrong." Aviva concluded
"Maybe.. But I don't want to stand here and find out" Martin said
"Martins right, I need to go find Zach and dispose all of his serums so that he can't hurt anyone or thing." agreed Chris
"What's the I for?" Martin questioned
"Sorry Martin you can't do this, Zach plans to inject you first and he can't do that if your not there." Chris said seriously
"W-W-What! I thought we were in this together. I'm not going to leave you stranded with that monster you call Zach!" Martin yelled in sadness
"I'm sorry bro I just can't let you get hurt, I love you!" Chris said as he left the room and outside of the Tortuga.
Martin stood there in shock. His face couldn't describe the emotions he was feeling right then and there. Aviva walked over to Martin and putted her hand on Martins shoulder. "MK I'm pretty sure he didn't mean it" Aviva said comforting him. "I just can't believe that he would say something like that to me" Martin replied. Martin pushed Aviva's hand away and walked toward the door that lead him outside the Tortuga.
"Where are you going?" Aviva asked
"To save my brother from being killed!" Martin said while putting on his gear and heading out the door
Aviva smiled knowing nothing, not even a fight could keep the bros away from each other. Martin looked over to find that the Createrra was gone. Dang it, Now how am I going to catch up with him? Just then a Paragon Falcon produced a shadow on the ground, Martin looked up covering eyes with his hands from being dried out by the sun. PARAGON FALCON POWERS! That's how I'll catch up with Chris! Martin whistled for the bird and it came swooping down onto Martins arm. He gently touched the falcon and said "Creature power activate!" A flash of blue lit up and Martin morphed into the animal he touched.
He flew above the skies looking down to search for his brother Chris. It took a few minutes but thanks to his great eye vision he saw the Createrra. Martin swooped down increasing his speed every second. He was coming upon the Createrra and fast but he slowed down, he didn't want to be seen by Chris. Martins brother came up on the jet and slowly pressed the brakes and parked the jeep. Chris opened the jeeps door and headed to the back of the jet and climbed in through the air vents. He reached the room that held all the serums and blueprints to the plans that were made for the Kratt bros. Chris started to collect all of the "genetic enhancers" when all of the sudden he heard a very unpleasant voice. Chris turned around and saw that it was Zach. He began to slowly inch toward Chris while saying
"Well, well, well if it isn't the green Wild Ra..." Zach was then interrupted by Martin
"Yeah..yeah Wild Ratts I get it!"
Zach looked behind him seeing Martin in his Paragon Falcon suit. He made a evil glare to him and didn't seem amused.
"MARTIN! I told you not to come. This is my business!" Chris said kind of annoyed but more angry like
"NO CHRIS! We always stick together! I'm not going to leave you here alone!" yelled Martin
While Zach was turned to Martin, Chris took the chance he got and started for the door.
"WHERE DO YOU THINK YOUR GOING WITH MY SERUMS YOU WILD RATT! Zach began running after both of the brothers. Martin and Chris ran, literally, for there lives but Zach was too fast. He grabbed Chris's collared jacket and threw the serums over to Martin. "MARTIN CATCH!" Chris yelled "GOT IT! Martin shouted as he ran getting closer to the exit door. Martin finally reached the exit but stopped, he turned around and waited... Zach was gaining on him with his brother, Chris, in his hands.
"MARTIN WHAT ARE YOU DOING! GET OUT OF HERE!"
"IM NOT GOING TO LEAVE YOU!"
Zach finally caught up and was just a few feet away from Martin. They just stared at each other for a few seconds until Zach spoke
"HA! I have your brother and there is nothing you can do about it!"
"Let my brother go! He didn't do anything to you" Martin demanded
"No he didn't... OH WAIT! He tried to steal my genetic body enhancers! Zach said angrily "Give me back my serums and I'll let your brother free, unharmed."
"Martin don't do it, he's just trying to..." Just then Zach threw Chris to the ground like a rag doll leaving him unconscious
"CHRIS!"
