Chapter 4: Not everyone is who they say they are
And as always Enjoy...
I then heard Chris coming down the hallway with Aviva and Koki yelling for me to get out of the way. I ducked and heard a shot, I looked back at Eva, but she wasn't Eva. She... or he... was a demon. It lead out a shriek and vanished.
"Martin are you okay" said Chris coming over to check on me
"I-I thought that was Eva... How did you know I was here and Why are you guys awake?" I questioned
"Chris woke us up, he had this weird feeling and told us to go look for you." informed Koki
"And when we did we saw that monster hovering over you about to suck the life out of you, literally!" added Aviva
"How could you think that was Eva, she's dead Martin..." asked Chris
I had a painful flashback of the incident "Yeah... I swear it was Eva though, the face, the size, the looks..." I replied back
"It's okay Martin, I guess the demon can get into people minds making then hallucinate." Aviva tried cheering me up, but it wasn't helping
"Well its gone now so we have nothing to worry about... Right?"
"Let's not get our hope of CK" said Aviva
We all went back to the middle of the room and went to sleep together protecting each other. Then dawn broke and we all woke up with a bad crook in our neck, it may have not been the most comfortable place to sleep, but if we were all safe it didn't matter. Aviva, Koki, and Chris got something to eat while I sat outside thinking about everything. The weather was just right, the sun shined perfectly and I deactivated my creature power suit. Everything seemed so peaceful and when it did it made me scared, I always had a feeling something would go wrong next. Chris came outside and sat beside me, he brought me cereal to eat. I thanked him and started munching on my meal.
"So, about last night... Um.. Do you like Eva? You seemed hurt the most when she, you know.." Chris said awkwardly
Did Chris really just say that... uhhh... "Of course, she was like a sister to me. I know I didn't know her for long but I felt a good connection with her and we both planed lots of adventures with Eva and... Well now we can't."
"Yeah, I know the feeling. Don't worry bro we can get through this." I felt a little faith from him, but I had a feeling we weren't out of the woods yet. I gave him a smile and patted him on the back, continuing to eat my cereal. We looked onto the horizon and watched all the animals do there thing. I felt safe, but all that ended just like I suspected. A cry for help came from inside the Tortuga, me and Chris rushed in to see what was happening. All of our things were either damaged or thrown in random places.
"AVIVA! KOKI!" I yelled, no answer.
"DANG IT CHRIS! We have to find them!" A panic came from my voice, I was afraid of losing them too.
"They left their weapons.." said Chris picking up their axe and gun
We ran into the rooms, nothing. The invention room, nothing. The main hallway, nothing same with the garage.
"Martin where could they have gone!?"
Then it hit me "The room.."
"The what?!" yelled Chris confused
"When I saw 'Eva', not knowing it was actually a demon, she lead me to this door I've never seen before. I was going to go in but had this strange feeling about it and turned around. Chris they might be in it!" I explained
"Well lead the way bro, I've got your back.. Wait before you we go in lets activate our creature powers again."
"But there's no wolf nearby and unless you have a sample of it's fur how are we going to change?" I was doubting Chris and his thoughts, but I regretted it
"Martin don't you ever learn, I always come prepared." Out of his pocket he pulled out a patch of the wolf fur. I rolled my eyes and touched the fur turning into the wolf. I looked a Chris giving him that look if he was ready, he nodded. I reached the knob and twisted it to the right. I slowly opened it and it was really dark. I walked in slowly with Chris behind me, once we got in a little more the door shut behind us startling me and Chris. Luckily having wolf powers they have very keen sight and great hearing.
"Chris can you see Aviva or Koki?"
"No its too dark, even with wolf powers I can't see the room that well. How far does this thing go?" pondered Chris
"Have no idea but keep your head straight I don't need to lose another best friend!" I was continuing to worry until I heard a faint noise
... Martin...
"Hey bro did you hear that..." I told Chris
"Hear what?" He questioned
"shhh... Just listen.."
...
... Help us...
"I heard it that time bro, lets follow it" Chris ordered
I followed right behind my brother, he kept walking and then stopped. I asked him what was wrong and he said he found them. I remembered I had my flashlight and turned it on... I looked up and didn't know what to think, I stood there speechless. I started shaking my head, backing my way out of sight. They were hanging from the wall with shackles clinging onto their hands. Koki had a bruises on her lip, face, and legs, a cut above her eyebrow, and a stab wound on her chest. Aviva... I don't even want to start. She had the same damage done to her as Koki but no stab wound.
"No...NO...NOOOOOO!" I yelled
"Martin! Pull yourself together!"
"CHRIS! Are you not seeing this! Aviva and Koki are dead, there bodies are hanging from the wall!" Anger took over with a little bit of tears
"You don't think I know that! They're my friends too MARTIN! BUT WE CAN'T-" Chris was interrupted
*cough cough* "Martin, Chris... I've never been so happy to see you guys..."
I stopped arguing with my brother and processed the lovely voice I heard. I walked back up to the Aviva and Koki and saw what I thought I'd lost.
"A-A-Aviva..."
To be continued...
Told you hearts were going to be broken... But lets just hope you can handle the next chapter.. WAHAHHAHA!
Don't get me wrong though I freakin love the Wild Kratts, but I also love suspense and horror combine the two, you get my imagination... It's pretty crazy isn't it, I know...
