This chapter was made on my birthday. Because even Kur didn't let up on his birthday.
"Are you sure this is the safest place for me to be during my grounding?" Zak sighed. He was in Kumari Kandam, just for his grounding.
"Yes, until Argost tracks you down." Ulraj acknowledged.
Zak let out a groan. "How do we even know he's looking? He hasn't come up to me yet."
Argost was looking though. He had gone to far lengths just to get what he had needed. How easy it was shocked him. In his shock, Zak Monday had dropped his bag, holding the flute. After that, Argost sent the mirror to be repaired as he looked all over the world for the fallen pieces of the Kur detector. No one cared about those, though.
"You do know that this is the exact same thing you tried last time, right?" Zak M called from inside the cage he was put in until the mirror was repaired. "They'll figure it out, and keep you from-" The anti was cut off when Argost held the repaired mirror up to him and got sucked in. Then Argost dropped it out the chute, without a care about it.
"Oh no, this won't be like the last time. This time, I will make sure no one lives."
"This is soooooo boring!" Zak moaned.
"That is what I meant those years ago." Ulraj pointed out. One of the servants around him offered him chocolates, which he refused.
"I mean just sitting here, waiting for Argost to just walk up and attack." Zak groaned when another servant came up to Ulraj to tell him about a meeting he had to attend. "I hear lower intelligence." All the servants stared at Zak. "My brain is shutting down."
At first they all ignored his attempts to entertain himself, until he began to snore. "Zak." Ulraj tried to wake him up, failing. "Zak!"
Zak began to snore really loudly. "Should we put him away in one of the chambers?" one of the guards asked.
"Please."
So Zak was snoring loudly, laying sprawled out on the floor. "That kid can sleep through anything, can't he?" one guard who brought him there said to the other.
"Well, he is Kur." the other guard answered. Zak snored even louder. "Maybe we should just leave him."
The two guards went back to their posts in front of Ulraj. That was when it happened. Argost burst through the doors, the guards who were assigned there fell to the ground. "Tell me where you are hiding Kur."
"I would rather have all of Kumari Kandam go down than let you have Kur's power."
"Then I guess that is what must happen." Argost grinned evilly.
The guards lunged at Argost, but a swarm of bugs came out from under his cape and attacked them. More guards came to subdue him, and met the same fate. Soon the only ones alive in the room were Ulraj and Argost. "Now tell me again where Kur is."
"I'd rather-" Ulraj started, but changed his mind. "Zak, what are you doing?"
Zak was still asleep in the chamber the guards had put him in. When Ulraj realized that Zak would not be coming until his brain rebooted, he grew nervous.
"I am tired of your silly antics, so I guess you are going to have to die. Unless you decide to actually tell me where he is instead of making weird excuses."
The whole city started to shake. That was when Ulraj realized why. The Saturdays had never really left. They were still above Kumari Kandam, waiting for Argost's warship to come, think there was no one there to protect it. That was thanks to Komodo's camouflage.
Even with having all of Kumari Kandam hit by a warship, Zak would not wake up. He just kept sleeping. "Looks like you're not getting Kur today." Ulraj laughed.
"You do know I can still kill you, though." Argost pointed out.
"Oh yeah." Ulraj frowned. Just as the yeti was about to strike him with one of the guards spears, Drew dropped in and kicked Argost.
"That's for all that misery you caused us!" she yelled.
Argost knew that if he stayed, even if he found Zak, that he would be killed by the vengeful Drew. "Munya! It's time to go!" A rope came down from the hole Drew had made getting in, which Argost grabbed. Drew pulled out the fire sword and tried to swing at him, but missed. Then she let out an angry groan.
"Where's Zak?" she asked, trying not to focus on the fact the creature that killed her parents got away.
Ulraj showed her to the chamber where Zak had slept away the whole thing. "Well I'm glad someone could sleep this over." Drew smiled. Hearing his mother's voice, Zak woke up.
"Mom? What are you doing here?" Zak wondered.
"Well kiddo, you just slept through a visit from Argost without getting a scratch on you. Probably won't do that again."
"I did what?" Zak yelled.
