Chapter 10: The First Guardian

I was walking down the hall where the strange presences were. It was little more than 15 minutes when I came to a big room full of books 'Must be a library' I thought as I looked down the long rows of shelves one book caught my eye "Sword Transformations" 'Transformation, huh' I thought as I read the book. It mostly talked about a magical aura that can be cast on a sword which gives it an ability to absorb the power of another weapon to use for it's own. I decided to give it a try and cast it on the sword, it took almost five tries of doing weird motions to finally pull it off.

With my sword enchanted I looked around for anything useful but throughout the time I kept feeling a weird presence in the room 'They must be in here' I thought as I came up to a chest that was hiding in a hole of the bookshelves "Let's see what you have to offer" I said as I opened up the chest. In the chest it has a big backpack made with leather, some kind of cushion, and two objects that I faintly recognize, the first one was a small Iron golem, the other object was just labeled 'Robot core' in the inventory.

"Well I can't leave you here unless I want the void to do something to you" I said as I grabbed the backpack and opened it and started to put the cushion and core in the bag but for the Golem it started moving. It ran up my arm and sat on my shoulder, while I was frozen with fear and weirdness.

After what felt like hours, or just seconds, I finally looked at it and immediately recognized it. It was a pet from the inventory pet mods, and it was a golem, which gives me the ability to absorb damage and have better resistance and strength. "You will be a big help" I thought as I petted its head that's when I heard, and saw, an arrow past my head "What the hell" I yelled as I fell back on my ass.

I looked behind me and saw two girls, one was tall and wearing a black turtle neck jacket, had a sort of maroon long hair, wore a black mini-skirt, stockings, and boots, an Enderman hat and had A-cup breast from what I can tell. The other girl was pointing her bow at me but I could still tell what she looked like. She wore a small gray open vest, which wasn't helping her D-cup breast that were about to fall out, she also wore short-short gray jeans, gray hiking boots, long gray gloves and a skeleton hat.

But back to the situation at hand I looked at them, but mostly the girl who was pointing her bow at me, and was going to question them but the girl with the skeleton hat spoke first.

"Alright, who are you and why are you here" She said to me a little stern "Well answer me!" she started to yell at me "Alright..." I said "My name is Julian and I'm just trying to find one of the Guardians that are here and the two presences I felt, which are you two, so I could get you out of here and out of deaths way.

I yelled a little at the end because I don't want anyone to die on my watch. The two girls looked at me with unsure eyes but soon calmed down by their shoulders slumping down. "Well this is very unfortunate I apologize for being rude and mean to you" she said in a motherly voice "Oh, that's OK you were probably just taken by surprise by my presence, right?" I said to her and she just giggled "Yes, we thought we wouldn't see anyone down here but I guess this proves us wrong but where are my manners. My name is Skelly and this is my friend Andr" She said to me "Nice to meet you I'm Julian as you know because you held me hostage for a while." I said a bit sarcastically and angry.

Skelly came up and kissed my cheeked "There Does that make us even" She said with a smile on her face "Sure" I responded with a blush. "So You came here to get us out of here." she said to me which I nodded in response "Well I'm sorry but we can't leave until we get our friend out of here from that cage." she said to me.

I looked at her and said "The void has your friend" I said and got a nod in return and then I looked away and said "How do you expect to free your friend If you can't hurt the creatures" I said as I looked back at her.

"Well we were able to sneak pass them and thought we could get them out without having to fight them but we got lost and found this place instead" she said to me. I was confused be cause the entrance had only one hallway so they should have came to where the cages were unless.

I was kicked out of my thoughts when Skelly pushed me to the ground "What the-" I started but quickly stopped when I saw a gigantic beast behind us covered in dark armor. It shouted a ferocious howl towards the ceiling indicating it was ready for a fight. "You weren't lost, The void made you come to this room." I yelled to them both. "But why" Skelly asked "Because they want to see how far I can go while I protect some civilians." I said as I get my weapon out "In other words if I can't protect you than one of us has to die"

Hey guys sorry I haven't posted like I promised I started to procrastinate and get lazy which is not a good combination but at least I haven't forgotten the story but I do want to rewrite it. So I'm Going to rewrite the story and it's going to have a lot of changes to it but the characters will still be here but the encounters, the powers, everything is going to change. I'm going to put up five chapters and then a poll to see if you guys like the other story want more updates on it or want me to stick with this story. So that covers everything and I'll start working on the first chapter for the new story. Have a good day.
