Chapter 9
They made their way over to them. Coulson, Bobbie, Hunter came out of the jet with guns drawn and aimed at Ryder
"Skye are you alright?" Coulson asked
"Yeah I'm fine, how about you lower your weapons?"
"Director Coulson glad you could make it."
He fired once at the blonde but she deflected it easily,
"I know you must be pissed at me, but I brought you here for a reason, it would take you too long to understand what is going on by me explaining it, so I brought you here to show you."
"Show us what?"
"Follow me and all will be explained"
"This could be a trap." Bobbie warned Coulson
"I know that is why you and May are with me, Hunter when Fitz finishes bring it to us, Simmons will know where we are." Coulson said walking after the blonde and brunette. Ryder led them to a different part of the Island ten minutes in they arrived at a tomb.
"Only those with good intentions can enter. So wanting to know the truth in order to save your home is good enough I just hope none of you have ulterior motives" Ryder warned then entered followed by Skye, May looked at Coulson who shrugged and entered. May stopped Bobbie from entering
"Wait here for Hunter to stop him coming in" she said then followed Coulson leaving Bobbie outside with the feeling of unease.
Inside the tomb was dark but Ryder lit something that gave off enough light to see. She led the way to a chamber on the left hand side. There were carvings on the walls which they all admired but looking closely Skye gave off a small shudder.
"The walls depict the story, a story written long ago, when your planet was not yet inhabited by humans."
It was true on the walls were images of creatures some depicted in white and others in black. There was a room full of these creatures all getting along and at the head of the group were two, one of each both looking as though they belonged.
"This is the time before your planet came to be as what you know today, before the two worlds were merged as one, creating a solid form known as Earth. There were these creatures that inhabited both realms were what you would call monsters, demons even, but this was when they were good, they lived in harmony. Then Adam wanted more, he was one of the most powerful of all, only one was his equal but darkness was within him and soon it started to spread, he started the Great War, dividing them in two. The war was long and soon they were destroying each other and the realms that they lived in. It came down to his sister the only one that could stop him, it was a hard choice, but she knew he had gone dark so she gave him what he wanted, a place he could rule all by himself. She sent him into the Abesion forcing him into a dormant state, but the repercussion of this she did not expect, doing so split him in two creating a solid foundation known as Earth."
As she explained she pointed to each picture depicting it. There was pictures of the battle between those depicted in white and those in black, finally the one that was depicted at the front of the group is seen fighting the large black one and next to it is of the large black creature being split in two and the other images seem to solidify.
"Why do these images seem to solidify?" Coulson asks
"That was the other part she was not expecting, when Earth was formed those left from the battle became something else." They continued around the room, the one in white was rallying every other creature on the Earth in front of a mountain although they did not seem to be facing her but the mountain.
"What is that?"
"The guardian of this planet. Like I said there were several repercussions she did not expect. Why I brought you here is this. She moved to the front of the room where an alter was, behind the alter there were inscriptions of two worlds and in between them was a ripple.
"This ripple is the foundations that is keeping Adam where he is now Triston is trying to break it. The ripple is fragile and Triston wants this planet so as he tries to break it hoping that if he sets Adam free he will be able to control him, but he does not know Adam, most that were around at the time when they became solid they chose to live a mortal life. Not all were given the choice, some even despised them for it. Creating the Outcasts, those that became mortal wanting more. Then there is those like Skye a daughter of one of the originals, her heritage goes back far, to one of the Pure's."
"What are you?"
"I am a Daughter of the Earth, so to speak"
"If he does awaken, how do we save Earth?"
"Find her." Ryder said pointing to the one standing in front of the guardian
"Where do we find her?"
"She will find you. Only if you find the guardian."
"How do we find the guardian?"
"Last time I checked he prefers mountains."
"He? So you have met him?"
Ryder turned to May who was critically watching her, she stepped forward but commotion from up top stopped her from replying instead she sighed. Then turned and headed out of the room
"Best not stay down here on your own" she called back as she left.
"Skye" May called to the brunette that was eyeing a picture closely, "Skye" She repeated, then still being ignored she moved over to the brunette and tapped her arm, Skye jumped and turned to May
"Hey what's up?"
"We're leaving. Is there something you want to tell me?"
"No. Right then let's go" Skye said hurrying out of the room with May hesitantly following behind after a close examination of the image Skye was looking at, but finding no use of the image she left. Outside the tomb Bobbie was standing with Hunter guns drawn and looking intently in the bush surrounding them.
"There is something out there." Hunter stated
Ryder looked around then froze.
"Get in the Tomb" She demanded
"What no way am I going into a tomb"
"Shut up. Zeus. Section 4"
"Who the hell is Zeus?"
"Stay near the tomb, they won't come near this place. Very superstitious" she said then disappeared into the bush.
