An Unleashing Collection
Chapter 7
The sound off buttons being pushed and a scanner running through many sets of data with the flashing lights of red, orange, and blue from many computer screens. The white fluff of fur that Zak had found from the bush BlackHeart had run through was being checked out by his parents many electronics. It was cleaned off first of the leaves and dirt carefully so they didn't ruin the discovery from the past. Suddenly a computer screen beeped a usually sound and flashed green then returning to a screen with information of what the fur had come from. They all, besides Fiskerton and Zon, rushed over to the computer screen. Zak's wounds were patched up and his scar was under many wrappings, Drew couldn't stitch him up since he was so stubborn to figure out about BlackHeart's fur. Doc and Drew were still worried about him though he kept saying he was fine. Doc sat down in one of the chairs in front of the computer Zak, Komodo, and Drew looking over his shoulder. He read what it said out load:
"Type: Animalien; Felid; Cryptid
Gender: Female
Age: 1,020 Years
Description Known: Black and White
Weight: Unknown
Height: Unknown"
"Well that was sort of a bust." Drew commented then looked at Zak, "Are you satisfied?"
"So . . . shes one thousand, twenty years old, huh?" Zak seemed to think for a momment. "Wow, pretty big for back then cryptids." It was as if he was talking to himself, Drew looked back at the screen. It didn't tell how big it was!
"Zak! What do you know about this creature?" Doc snapped him out of his thoughts.
Zak looked at him and straightened up, "What do you mean? This was all we got."
"You were talking to yourself in a daze."
"Darn," He sighed, "This cryptids name is BlackHeart and she had amber eyes and a black muzzle and tail but one of her ears, the left one, was just a stump. She was cruel and vicious. She was way bigger then any normal cougar, even Neveah in her Vampire Beast form! She was ordered to kill a light brown, lets just call them Vampire Beast, named Queen Keuko, her sister." Zak explained, shrugging at the end like it was no big deal.
Doc stood up from the chair he was in, "And how do you know this?" he asked.
"Dream and vision while barely concious. There are claw marks and BlackHeart's fur to be evidence they were alive." Zak looked up at his mother and father trying to tell what they were thinking from their expressions.
"Where was this patch of fur?" Drew questioned.
"In a bush from the path BlackHeart was taking while chasing after Keuko."
"Anything alse you know?" Drew put her hands on her hips.
"No." Zak stated, he did but he wouldn't tell them about the book, he'd keep it a secret for the past.
"Then were going searching."
"Why?" Zak raised up his hands.
"Because, were scientest in cryptozoology, and were curious about some cyrptid from the past."
Zak was grinning now, "Alright! Can I come, I mean I have to show you the path and all." Both parents sighed in defeat, they had to bring him along.
"Grab your claw. Komodo you stay here with Fiskerton you'll need to watch out for him." Doc pointed at Komodo.
"//Why me?\\" Komodo growled even though Doc and Drew couldn't understand him his brother sure did and he snickered at him.
Komodo nipped at Zak'd ankle and he jumped and yelped in surprise. Komodo started laughing at him. Zak frowned at him and stomped away resisting the urge to smile at the amusement. He raced after his parents and grabbed the Claw from the counter, he spotted his Dad putting on his Power Glove and his Mom strapping her Fire Sword. The platform on the floor that was colored in dark blue started to disappear and ropes fell down reaching the grassy plain below them. Zak jumped on one of the ropes when Komodo came around the corner to greet them goodbye.
"Komodo." Zak said and he growled in response, "Make sure nothing happens. You know where they emergency buttons are, press one if anything happens and if you are under attack from the air, you know you have to run away even if were not there. Good luck, brother." He lectured, his parents looked at him inpressed by his maturity.
"//You too, brother.\\" Komodo hissed proudly, puffing out his chest making look as if he was in profile.
Zak smiled and released his hold on the rope making him slide down it, his parents followed him down. Zak jumped off four feet from the ground and landed on one knee, he stood up and a small breeze whipped his hair around. He breathed in, besides todays events the outside really calmed him down. The couple went down to the ground and Doc put his hand on the twelve year old's shoulder.
"Lead us the way, son."
Zak smiled and walked across the plain of grass, followed by his parents to the dark greenery of the forest.
The gray, half erosional giant rock came into view, Zak rushed over to it and examined Keuko's claw marks. He smiled. They were still there and now he believed he was still sane. Zak gestured to his parents to keep following him as he headed deeper into the woods. The couple glanced at the rock to see what he was looking at, Drew continued to follow Zak and Doc scanned the markings with the control pad on his wrist. Zak brushed aside the bush he had found BlackHeart's fur and followed his memories of where they were heading in his vision. The only problem was . . . he didn't know where they were heading exactly. He didn't know if she turned, if BlackHeart killed her, there was many suggestions that could have happened. Zak thought for a moment and caught an idea that was in the pool of his mind. Zak activated his powers trying hard for another vision to come to him. A faint light glowed and Zak looked in front of him. Its figure looked just like Keuko but in person the figure was so huge! His thoughts rang in his mind when he first found Keuko's claw marks, 'Whoa! Big kitty kat!'. Zak face palmed with his powers still activated. But this wasn't a vision that lighted figure was just there, like it was waiting for him to follow it.
"I don't know if you're Keuko but I'll come along." Zak said to the lighted figure. It nodded and began to walk ahead of him, he followed close behind.
It seemed as if hours past after climbing over large rocks, curving around trees, and tripping over roots but finally the lighted figure stopped at and open space between the trees. His parents were still following him, he was lucky at that, he didn't want to get them lost. Zak looked back at the lighted figure then at his surroundings. They were now in a field with two large brown boulders that had a crack inbetween them. It looked like an earthquake had seperated them. By the rocks were barren dirt but besides that was just short lush light green grass that swayed. The lighted figure caught his attention as it moved to a hole, it looked as if something had crashed to the ground and made it, a crater, smaller then the ones he had saw in his horrifying dream but still a fairly large size. The lighted figure crawled down to the bottom, Zak walked over and bent down next to the crater.
"This is the spot they stopped at." He told his parents and they began examining the place, ignoring the crater Zak was by.
The lighted figure moaned, Zak watched as it sniffed the spot that was where whatever made the crater had impacted into the ground. It seemed to sob and then vanish into dust and rose to the sky, Zak watched it float away into nothingness. He skidded down the crater making pebbles fall down with him, he jerked up when he had a stern footing. He turned off his power thinking there was no use of it anymore. His stomach turned upside down when the scenery changed around him and his Mom and Dad weren't there anymore. Zak looked down and gasped in shock. His body was in the ground! Well besides his head, the crater was filled up and was flat and grassy plane ground again. There was something golden, green, and blue in the sky above him and it was coming straight toward him to the ground. He could tell there was two beings in the blob of colors. He heard someone behind him yell out and he turned around. There was Keuko, pinned to the ground and struggling and BlackHeart was the one pinning her, the book was yards to the side of her and her face was facing him, they were not in the area of that crater . . . was.
"NO!!" Keuko screeched wirgling under the weight of BlackHeart.
BlackHeart placed her paw on her sister's head and dug her claws into her eye lids making Keuko open her eyes and watch the figures fall. They became clear when Zak looked back at them. There was a golden furred, giantic wolf with green eyes which were illuminated with the same orange firey color as Zak's power who was being held by the neck from another wolf, bigger then the golden wolf with red eyes, and blue-green fur. The golden wolf's head was, at what Zak could judge, the first thing that would come into contact with the ground. Know he knew the intention of the blue-green wolf as they spiraled to the ground at a remarkable pace. The blue-green wolf pushed forward with his hind legs trying to make them fall faster.
"Stop! NO!! Please don't!" Keuko kept yowling in the back ground. . . .
Zak was frightened, they were heading right torward him even though this was the past and it wouldn't hurt him, just the look of it would. Five feet from the ground they were when Zak snapped out of his thoughts and the blue-green wolf with red eyes released the golden wolf and pushed him closer to the ground, backing away with a flip while calling out the golden wolf plunged to his death with wide eyes and a horror stricken expression.
"Here is your death Kur, my son! Welcome it!"
A huge explosion and a very loud crack, dirt waved like it sand would in a desert, Zak raised his hands in defence though nothing affected him. But then everything cleared and there the golden wolf . . . Kur . . . was. His head was crashed into the bottom of the crater making a hole for the top of his head, his green eyes in pain and blood was splashed out at Zak's feet. Kur's body was straight up, still, and his jaw was open in slack. Zak looked into his eyes as they rolled in the back of his golden head for only the white to be seen, his body went limp and his limbs splayed out like limbs of a tree.
Keuko screamed and Zak fell to the ground and managed a paniced yelp at the scene. Everything disappeared and he heard his parents calling him.
"Zak? Zak! Are you alright?" His Mom asked him from the edge of the crater.
Zak stood up and shook his head, "Y-Yeah, I'm fine." he said and looked up at his Mom, she sighed and Zak started back up the crater, not glancing back, he didn't want to imagine the scene again. Zak was helped up by his Mom and they trudged over to his father, he was over by the crack inbetween the two brown boulders. Zak looked down inside it but he couldn't see the bottom.
"Cool. . . ." Zak said and it echoed against the walls of the crack.
"Think we should scale down it?" Doc asked raising up his hands.
To test it Zak picked up the nearest fist sized rock and chuck it against the wall opposite of him. The listened as it clattered down the walls and bounced off other rocks. Zak looked into the black abyss and saw nothing but darkness. And they never heard the rock's trail end at the bottom.
"I don't think we should." Zak suggested and turned on his heals heading to the boulders.
"CRRAAAW!!!" Something thunderously roared inside the deep black abyss of the crack they were standing right next too!
After that came the sound of enormous wings flapping two times before an immense bird appeared from the crack, wings fanning out. It's wings looked about twenty feet long and its height about fourty feet long from the ground at Zak's feet.
"Now theres a giant bird!? Whats wrong with this place!?" Zak called out as he snapped out the Claw from his belt and whipped around backing away and ready incase it attacked. His parents repeated his motions. Zak studied the gianormous bird. It's feathers were a light brown and orange with a tint of red and it's eyes were bloodshot. Zak's eyes glowed trying to control it and the only thing he heard was its screaming the words 'I AM THE CHARUN!! FEAR ME!!'. Zak cringed, he wasn't expecting this. Zak cut off his power not wanting to hear it's rant.
"CRRAAW!!" It howled again and rose it beak to the sky, glancing at Zak, Doc, and Drew.
"Zak do you know what this is?" Doc asked, not making a move just incase the Charun would spot him and charge.
"Yeah. And its not friendly." Zak said shaking his head side to side.
"Well, what is it?" Drew asked impatiently.
The Charun ran out it's earsplitting cry.
Zak cringed at the sound, "A Charun. . . ." It's beak was now right by his head, sniffing him, it made a growling sound deep in his throat it sounded like 'Kur' but lots of sounds it could make could sound like that! Zak stepped back as the bird took a step toward him with his featherless, cringled-looking, tarnished legs. Zak dared to move farther and front flipped onto it's back, it bucked in surprise then frenzied trying to get him off. Extending his wings and flapping them making everything in the air pressures reach blow and rattle. Zak extended the Claw snagging on to the Charun's neck and making it latch on so he wouldn't fall off.
"Zak!" His parents yelled at him.
Zak smirked and let one hand raise in the air as it kept bucking like one of those bulls he'd seen on TV. Zak accidently clicked the button that retracted the Claw and made it relese its grip. "Oops.", Zak flew off of the Charun's back as it bucked again. It roared out and charged at him but was interuppted by his Dad's Power Glove which drove the gianormous bird a yard away from them. Zak sighed. His Mom came runnning at it with a super hot charged Tibetan Fire Sword and aimed it at the Charun's head. The Charun cocked its head curiously and stared at the flaming sword with bloodshot red, beady eyes. I used my powers and it's eyes glowed as it's attention was brang to him.
Why . . . alive Kur? You . . . had . . . by you're . . . shouldn't be here. . . . Different form . . . have gained. Zak could only pick up a few words that the Charun had tried to speak to him. For an old, ancient, powerful cryptid he thought it could speak fluently, guess his hypothesis was wrong.
Reincarnation, soul trapped in Kur Stone. Zak responded trying to sound as modern as he could be, but he knew this was an enemy, not an ally.
Then your cycle of dying shall be repeated, and I, the Charun, shall commit your death! Kur! "CRRAAW!!" The Charun cryed out loud and in Zak's mind.
Zak shut him out and stood up preparing his Claw for battle. "The intent to kill." Zak sighed, he hated to keep fighting. The Charun raised it wings and stood up bravely and boldy, showing them he had the upper hand. Drew shot a fireball at him and it singed it's feathers, it growled at her and stretched out its leg and reached up to scratch her arm, it suceeded and there was a long gash visible on his Mom's arm. Zak charged the Claw at the Charun and hit him in the jaw, jerking the over sized monster bird to flap its wings and backing away into the air. That wasn't good, it had better ability in air then on land. Zak unhooked the Claw letting it hang loose so he could hit the Charun. It cawed and dove down tucking in it's wings for more speed. The Claw snapped up and it latched itself onto the Charun's legs, he pulled trying to bring it down but the bird was to strong, he called for his parents to help him. The couple rushed over to their twelve-year-old son and placed their hands aobve Zak's. The black and white haired parents tugged on the Claw's rope as the Charun continued to squabble.
"SCRRAAW!!" It thundered and tipped it's neck down to Zak and said it's first english word, "DIE!!"
Zak's eyes widened as it started pulling Zak from the Claw's handle making his parents grip it harder making the devil bird come closer to the ground. Zak gasped and his grip on the Claw was released as the Charun brang him up in the air with it. Zak was in it's beak. This isn't very good! Zak yelped in pain as the Charun pressed its beak together, not tearing Zak apart, just to toture him. His chest wound was open again making the blood go past the bandages and seep into the Charun's mouth. It purred wiht satisfaction even though it was still being pulled to the ground by Zak's Mom and Dad.
If my parents keep continuing to bring the Charun down to the ground, I could try and use my powers like I did on the tiger . . . dog . . . whatever you call it! So that would leave this bird paralyzed so it could stop fighting and we could putting back in it's hole, maybe make it go it to hibernation, that would help so it wouldn't attack Bladenboro. I guess I could go with that. . . . Zak thought to himself and the Charun squezzed tighter making Zak wheeze out. His parents gave a strong tug and they were five feet from the ground. Perfect. Zak grunted and concentrated his powers. Hid body became illuminated in the flashing, lightning-like, firey, orange energy that sparked and flew around. Zak cringed at the pressure and everything became orange-yellowish. No one could see anything until it faded away.
Well! Here it is! I'm sorry if the battle isn't really satisfying, but I tried as hard as I could to make it as best as I could. And if nothign makes sense, please inform me. Thank you. I'm happy you read it and have a good day to you all~! :D
