I apologise for such a huge delay in getting this chapter up as I have been swamped at work and my computer at home decided to give up the ghost. I thank all for your patience.
So here we go on with chapter seven…………………………………
Chapter 7: Saviour or Enemy?
A nightmare. It had to be a nightmare. That was all that Freya could think of her surroundings at the current time. In front of her, her farther lay dead killed by some big black insect looking monster and also her mother lay there with less then half her head. Behind her some thing was appearing and she did not know what was going to happen. She was frozen by the events and she did not know what was going to happen next.
I'm going to die. I'm going to die. The thought rocketed around the inside of her head.
Freya turned her head slightly to see the newly arrived thing, not letting the black monster in front of her out of sight. Towering above her stood a giant of a being, it had to be over seven foot high and built like a tank. Its muscles were huge and bulged underneath its green coloured skin. It wore what looked like some kind of plated, dull coloured, armour over parts of its body. It stood there looking, not at Freya but at the black monster. In one of its hands, there was what appeared to definitely be a spear of some kind. On the other hand, Freya could make out what appeared to be two knives housed in a type of gauntlet. Looking up past the chest, Freya looked at the mask that covered its face, reflecting the dull light of the night.
The black monster had noticed to the arrival of this new enemy and was flicking its tail from side to side like an excited dog. Its senses took in what lay before it and with a thought it sprang forward talons and teeth ready to kill the new being.
Freya hardly had a second to register what happened next. The black monster leapt forward aiming for the space that Freya currently sat. Freya raised her arms in a futile gesture to try and protect herself. She needn't have bothered.
Realising that the black monster should have crashed into her by now, Freya lowered her arms to see that the monster was standing there with the giants spear thrust through its head. The giant was standing to the side and in front of her, holding the spear two handed. Freya gawped at what now lay before her. The monster appeared to be dead and the huge giant creature seemed to be her saviour.
oOo
Having followed the small group of oomans Rag'nar saw the male of the group stop dead as a tail speared through his back killing him and spraying the two in front with blood. Upping his pace Rag'nar closed the distance between him and the group but not in time to see the hard meat barrel into the two survivors throwing them from there feet. The older female's screaming echoed around the building as the hard meat grabbed a hold of her foot and began dragging her back towards it. The little female tried grabbing the other female and was trying to pull her free. It was of no use as the hard meat gave a sharp tug and the little female was sent stumbling back and collided with his cloaked form.
As Rag'nar reached for the button to de-cloak the hard meat rammed its inner mouth through the skull of the female ending her life in dramatic fashion. De-activating the cloak with the push of a button, Rag'nar stood there his eyes focused upon the Kainde Amedha before him. Rag'nar did not see that the little female looking up at his huge form as it de-cloaked.
The Kainde Amedha was surprised by Rag'nar's appearance and soon regained its wits and leapt, talons and teeth bared for the kill. The hard meat was not to know that it was leaping towards its death.
With the skill born from countless battles and fights with the deadliest prey the universe had to offer, Rag'nar leapt forward and to the side of the leaping hard meat, and thrust his spear forward to impale the black head. The spear found its mark and punctured through the side of the skull, thrusted its way through what passed for a brain before exiting out the other side in a spray of bone and acid blood.
Rag'nar gave the spear grip a twist and the spear retracted into its short form. The hard meat slumped to the ground in front of him, its blood eating into the ground and the area that had been covered in the spray from its head.
If I had the time I would take this skull, damn these c'jit Rag'nar thought.
With a glance towards the little female he could tell that she had survived and no caustic blood had caught her. Rag'nar turned from the female's direction and started off looking for the remaining young bloods.
oOo
Freya could not believe it. The black monster lay sprawled out just in front of her with a hole through its head where the giants spear had just been. Freya did notice that the blood that had sprayed from the exit wound had splashed near by and was dissolving what ever it touched.
I'm glad none of that touched me or I would be dead thought Freya.
The huge giant had turned and started of in the direction of the meeting hall. It had just left her there with the corpses of her parents near by.
Most kid's minds would have snapped under so much death and destruction and loss. Freya sat there and looked from the body of her father, with his head facing towards her with eyes open fixed in death, to the remains of what used to be her mother. Freya's head then turned to the big black bug monster that lay dead not more than a few feet from her.
Something did snap in her head. Freya looked at the way the giant had gone and made her mind up.
If that giant can kill these monsters then so can I. The thought of revenge boiled away the despair that had started to crawl its way across her mind.
Jumping up from the ground, Freya listened to the night's air and could hear the screams of the people of Valhalla. In the distance she could see flames had caught on some buildings and was spreading its fiery light through the night.
Faintly in the distance Freya could see her saviour's form diminishing in the dark of the night as it ran towards a new battle. With a freshness brought to her limbs by the thought of revenge, Freya left the scene of death around her to seek out and kill those that had brought death into her life.
oOo
Rag'nar ran on closing in on the main building where the centre of all the activity was. Activating his cloak, Rag'nar approached the buildings that lay just before the main building.
I need a better view point thought Rag'nar.
Looking at the buildings that surrounded him, Rag'nar found the right building that would offer him the best view of the carnage that no doubt lay beyond. With a huge jump, Rag'nar sailed through the air and grabbed on to the side of the building. Climbing his way up in no time he crouched on the edge and gazed upon the area that now lay before him.
Both inside and outside the huge meeting hall lay the bodies of oomans that had recently been killed as their heat signature was fading from the bright reds to the dull blues of death. From the looks of the carnage it seemed that most of the oomans were dead or had fled. Also he could see from the technology signatures, that some of the wayward young bloods where in the building amongst what was definitely hard meats.
Out in front of the building and not to far from his vantage point there was a young blood fighting a losing battle with a pair of hard meats. Rag'nar could tell that the young blood was not going to last much longer as he was facing one hard meat in front and one behind him. The two hard meats charged.
This is it, death claims this fool thought Rag'nar seeing the charge.
Instead of smashing into the young blood the two hard meats collided with each other as the young warrior performed a perfect back flip out of the way. The two hard meats were in a pile on the floor, one of them on top of the other.
Impressive, but will he use the moment he has gained to finish them. Rag'nar slightly turned his head as he focused on the fight before him
The young blood brought its spear down in a great arc and stabbed the sharp point through the head of the hard meat killing it instantly and piercing the chest of the one beneath it. The hard meat on the bottom stopped moving and appeared dead as well. With a yank of the spear the end came free of the hard meat corpses and the young blood stood there looking down upon his kills
Rag'nar saw the mistake that the young blood made straight away. The very first thing he remembered being taught when training for his first Kainde Amedha trial by his instructor.
'Always make sure that the hard meat is dead, never assume that it is! Many young bloods meet Cetanu for not making sure that the hard meat is dead'
The tail, of the bottom hard meat, dragged itself from the floor and reared up before jabbing its sharp black tail blade through the chest of the young blood that seconds before had dealt a death blow to both hard meats.
The young blood had stood there glowing with pride at killing of the two hard meats with a single strike. But now the young blood stood there looking down at the tail that had ended his life.
Rag'nar shook his head at the stupidity that the young blood had just proven with its death. Turning his head back to the main building Rag'nar saw that the last of the renegade young bloods were in the building. Still cloaked, he jumped from his vantage point and battle was to be joined.
oOo
Freya ran through the buildings and her nerves were on a knife edge as she tried to listen out for any monsters that might be hiding in the dark places. She was drawing near to the meeting hall that she and her family had not departed from long ago. Rounding a corner Freya saw a nightmare laid out in front of her. Bodies lay every ware, some with huge holes in their chests, others missing limbs or parts of heads. Around the bodies lay the familiar bodies of black bug monsters. Most of them had huge holes through their chests and others had their heads missing.
Sticking close to the building she had just come round, Freya noticed two of the bug monsters lying on top of each other and just behind them was what looked like her saviour. Quickly Freya closed the gap to the giant form and as she came near she could see that it was similar to her saviour but was not the same as this one was a little smaller in height and was not dressed the same way as her giant. She could see that the giant was dead and it did not take two guess to figure out how. Beside the body lay the tail of one of the bug monsters and it was covered in a green neon blood that had most certainly come from the hole that was in the giant's chest.
Looking around the giants form Freya could see that there was on the floor a spear which was very similar to the one that had killed the bug monster attacking her. Freya bent down and picked it up. Expecting the spear to be really heavy, Freya was surprised to find that she could hold it in one hand and that it was not really as heavy as she thought. The spear had a grip in the middle which had two buttons inlaid into it. Freya pushed the two buttons and the spear suddenly shorted as it with drew in to itself, cutting its length in half. Startled by this Freya dropped the spear and it clattered to the ground. Looking down at the dull silver spear, Freya bent down and picked it up again. With another press of the two buttons the spear opened up again to its original size it had just been seconds ago.
Holding the spear in her hands Freya looked up and could hear that some thing was going on inside the building. With a good grip on the spear Freya made up her mind.
Ok I've got me a weapon now lets go hunt some bugs!
With that thought Freya left the corpses of the giant and the two bug monsters, and began her path towards the building and probably her death.
