Chapter Twenty one: The man with many secrets.
Left off on a cliffhanger and I FEEL GOOD! Also just as a fun game but do any of you have a suspicion as to who the cloaked man might be? I gave a little hint last chapter, but it's so small it can easily be forgotten.
Dovewing POV
"I respect your bravery."
"Leave and never come back!"
"WHERE IS MY BROTHER!"
Dovewing yawned as she scrolled through the Tv channels, looking for a good movie. She couldn't sleep, so she opted to stay awake as long as possible. She came across Moana and decided to stick with that.
"What can I say except your welcome?" Dovewing mumbled, following the song. She yawned, hoping that she would get sleepy.
As she started to drift off, a familiar voice called to her "Dove's Wing."
Dovewing sighed "Damn remote's busted, fuckin' Berrynose." She shook the remote violently.
The TV shut off, leading Dovewing to stand up and look around the room "Foxleap?"
"No." The man whispered.
"Damn," Dovewing scoffed, turning to the man "Here to kill me?"
The man chuckled "To me you've been dead for centuries."
Dovewing tilted her head in confusion before sighing and sitting back down in the couch "Some milk in the fridge, and some wine and whiskey on top shelf."
"You seem to be taking a stranger dressed in a cloak inside your home very well," He said "Have you been expecting me?"
"Depends on what you're here for," Dovewing scoffed.
"I suppose so," the man agreed "Where is your cousin?"
"Which one?"
"Big one."
"Why?" Dovewing asked.
"To Give him a gift," the man stared out the window "And then enhance yours. Just as I gave Jay's Wing his sight."
Dovewing sighed and smirked "You gave him his sight."
"Where is he?"
"Local gym."
The man nodded, his pale gray eyes glowing under the hood "Next week, I'm coming for you. Be ready."
Dovewing nodded in understanding. She remained on the couch, waiting to see what else would happen.
Lionblaze POV
"Please...please don't."
"Step forward."
Lionblaze cried.
And he fell off the edge.
"NO!" Lionblaze cried, flying towards the ground. Lionblaze flapped his arms around, helplessly. The ground was getting more closer and closer.
"PLEASE SAVE ME!" He screamed towards the man, who by this point couldn't hear him.
He cried in fear as he got closer to the ground. He closed his eyes preparing for the worst.
But it never came.
Lionblaze opened his eyes, realizing he had alreday touched the ground. But he felt no pain. He looked up fnding himself in a small crater on the sidewalk. Lights shined over him, onlookers taking pictures.
"Did i do this?" Lionblaze looked at the crater. He didn't die! How?
All of a sudden, the onlookers dropped their phones and crushed them, with a blank expression. They turned and simply walked away.
Lionblaze stood up, not in the least bit hurt. "How?" He asked himself.
"Lion's Roar."
Lionblaze turned behind him to see the cloaked man.
"It's time to wake up."
The cloaked man disappeared, leaving Lionblaze to flee form the scene.
He ran across town back to his home, locking the door. He leaned across it "What the fuck just happened?"
"Lionblaze?"
Dovewing came into view, rather sleepy "I'm guessing something happened?"
Lionblaze shook his head "NOTHING HAPPENED!"
"Really?" Dovewing smirked "Cause you just said 'What the fuck just happened'?"
"GO TO SLEEP!" Lionblaze squeaked.
"Okay," Dovewing sighed and headed to her room "Tell cloaked man that I'm expecting him."
Lionblaze sighed "Oh Lord you know him?"
"I told him you were you were, asshole," Dovewing smirked, walking away.
Lionblaze fell to the floor, leaned up against the door, exhausted.
Unknown POV
"Foolish children, and their foolish ways," the man in the dark cloak smirked.
He watched from afar, hidden by the trees. He observed and listened with his supernatural abilities.
"Tell cloaked man that I'm expecting him."
He smirked, already growing a respect for her. She had already accepted that her life was going to be strange, just like he had to a long time ago.
He remembered the last words of Jay's Wing. Well the last Jay's Wing anyway. "Train them, like you did us. Guide us as you have like the others before me."
The memory of his death made him suffer. His immortality was killing him in both literal sense and figurative sense. He felt himself growing colder and more distanced from the human race. He was losing respect for human life.
But such was the curse of his. To live and see so many of his pupils die and repeat the cycle over and over again. For hundreds of years, ater he found the three he had hoped the cycle would break, allowing this war to end. But it always ended the same. The three dying, and evil allowed to endure.
All because of that damned Moonstone.
The heart of a star, hardened into a crystal like form. Held with tremendous power, the stone itself was it's own Death Star. And backed up with dark magic...
Well that itself was it's own problem.
The man sighed, watching them disperse.
He used his 'gifts' to observe Jayfeather and the red hacker discuss his gifts. The A.I made it nearly impossible to get inside the house personally. The only way he was able to talk to Dovewing was because he used his mind bonding skills to project himself there. In all reality, Dovewing was talking to air.
The man snapped, shifting realities and time and space. He repeared at his haven, a connection of tunnels underneath the lake.
The underground was a wonderful place filled with magical beings and creatures that should never be seen by human. The Moonstones magic had created them, and the tunnel. The ecosystem was thriving, surprisingly. The cavern beneath the lake was filled with moss and trees.
The tunnels surrounded the city, allowing him to appear anywhere at anytime if his magic had been depleted. They led to the school, city, and their house.
Gravity also had its own mind. For instance, the huge cavern beneath the lake, had a floating body of water above them, connecting to the roof. If someone was to keep swimming under the lake, they would fall through and plummet to the underground floor.
He went into the cavern, and looked to the side. Their was a metal door, he had it installed (created) and it led to another room. Inside was his room, his little home. A small bed bulletin board covered in strings and papers connecting all sorts of conspiracies. JFK's assassination, Wars created. Secret societies, lost cities, ancient artifacts, all of it connected by this bulletin board. And witg it, his worried were proven correct.
Armageddon was upon them. Chasing Clouds knew this, and yet he stupidly got his daughter involved. It made him shake with rage to the pony of killing him. But he couldn't do that else he risked more punishment.
He had already made one mistake with an immortal. Best to not do it again.
Short but you'll have to deal with it.
Also I would like to thank each and everyone of you for the support and love you have given this story. So thank you.
So Review.
