Chapter 14

Anger

Yakumo came busting through the door and asked, "You ok?" but Salina was already up and walking out the room. Kutaal was making lunch and saw her as she stormed out of her room then out the door. Mushra and Sago were outside helping the villagers and Sago saw Salina almost running in the direction of Maliki's castle.

He ran up to her and grabbed her shoulder. "What in the world are you doing?"

She shook his hand off, not listening. She got faster, but Sago caught up to her and stopped in front of her, grabbing her shoulders and stopping her. Mushra came over as Yakumo and Kutaal walked out.

"I asked what are you doing?"

She tried to get loose, but couldn't. She told him everything about her dream. He let go, surprised.

"And now I'm gonna KILL him before he lays a freaking HAND on ANYONE I care about and you are NOT going to stop me, Sago." she started walking again.

Everyone followed and Sago said, "You need to think about this, ok? What if you get there and he kills YOU." He stops her again. "I WON'T let you die. I won't."

She looks at him, calming down a very tiny bit. "The only person who is gonna die is him. I'm sorry, but I'm not changing my mind. I'm not gonna let him kill anyone because I'm scared. You can either help me or stay here." She felt very bad because she never acted this mad toward Sago, but if she had to chose between being a little mean or letting him die, she would rather be mean. Sago just stared at her, thinking. The others were right behind them, waiting on their decision.

"If you're not going to change your mind then I'm coming with."

Salina nodded, turned to the others and saw them nod, but turned ahead as she saw three terra's and one of the dogs coming. Yakumo put a shield around the villagers and shot a line of energy at one of the dogs. Mushra's wings formed and he attacked with Yakumo. Kutaal, Sago and Salina chose birds and attacked. After only twenty seconds, the creatures where defeated. They saw another terra, but on its back…was Maliki.

Salina was even more furious now.

"You shouldn't have listened to the dream. Now what you wanted to prevent will happen." He said raising his hand.

Four purple balls shot towards Yakumo, Mushra, Sago and Kutaal. They were trapped in them. They kept hitting them but couldn't break them.

"GUYS!!!" Salina yelled, but was hit back by a purple energy ball and she fell to the ground.

She wrapped her hand around her stomach and got up as Maliki said, "I'll give you a chance to save them. You come over to the battle grounds over there" he said pointing to some place by his castle. "and fight for your friends. You lose and everything is destroyed. You win and I'm gone forever. We both lose and everything starts over again. Or more important for you, you and Sago lose each other forever. Oh, and I would hurry if I were you." He, the terra, and the gang disappeared.

She sat there and thought. I have and want no other choice. I have to kill him. No matter what, I have to. She hurried and got the villagers to the house and told them to stay here no matter what. Kimberly was crying, scared for her older friend, but Salina could do nothing but go and kill Maliki. She flew off to where Maliki had pointed and saw a dead part of the land that had two rows of pillars. There were five on each side, some were half's of pillars, some were completely perfect, and some were in between. In front of one of the pillars she saw her friends chained to the ground and she headed toward them, but ran into an invisible wall. She looked around for a way in and saw a little cabin half the size of their house and headed for it. She landed and went inside. She got to the other door and tried to open it. It was stuck. She thought she could break it down but she took that small moment to break down. She fell to her knees and put her head in her hands. She was so scared for her friends and family and a little for herself. She wasn't sure she was going to be able to beat him. She had put off thinking of her mom and dad and if she should go back and now there was no chance. She sat there for a few seconds, but got up and pulled her sword from where she had it around her waist. She got ready, then kicked the door open.
