CHAPTER IV

Alex couldn't sleep that night, so he simply sat in the chair by the window. He began wondering who the person in his dream was, while he compared him to Spawn (The one who gave him these incredible powers). As he was comparing, he noticed how strange that person had looked. Alex felt shaky and wondered if his dream had any connection to the evil he was to help defeat. Alex glanced out the window a moment, to the spot where Spawn had disappeared. He was so interested in looking at that spot, that he missed something that would have been so obvious. There was a crackling sound that startled Alex out of his trance. He turned to look straight ahead at what was the most horrifying sight he had seen. The thing that had landed, had huge spike protruding from its back, and head. Its eyes and hands glowed dark red with what looked like energy. As Alex stared at the creature, he noticed a series of round circles on the creature's chest. Alex got up slowly, but the creature had noticed him. What happened next, happened so fast, Alex didn't have a chance to move. The creature flew straight through the window, and slammed into him. Alex doubled over in pain. The creature held up his hand. In it, a glowing light started. Alex felt a chill down his back as he felt fear. The creature threw the red energy ball at Alex. Alex held up his hands to defend himself. Without realizing he had, Alex deflected the energy ball into the kitchen. The kitchen exploded with a loud boom! Amazed by what he had just done, Alex stood up. He looked down at his hands and noticed that they were again spiked with energy, and his body was black. Alex put his hand behind him and felt his back, where wings were mounted. The creature spoke to Alex, saying, "None have ever deflected my blasts." Alex, who was now furious, then spoke. "Who are you?!" "My name is Shenron, and I will be the death of the guardians." Shenron then held up both of his hands once more. This time, Alex was ready. He felt something at the end of his fingertips, and tried to push it out. Again, Alex looked down at his hands. In them, lay two energy balls. Alex put his hands together, pushing the energy through his hands with as much power he had. A bright blue beam of energy shot out towards Shenron. Shenron's eyes widened as he tried to block the beam. Alex's feet dug into the ground as he pushed the energy out with all his might, but he couldn't hold Shenron's blast of energy as he fought back. Alex knew Shenron would win. He had to find a way out and fast. Alex glanced behind him, where a huge pile of rubble was. Alex took one of his hands, weakening his beam of energy, and threw a ball of energy besides Shenron, blinding him. Alex jumped out of the way of the oncoming beam of Shenron's energy. He looked behind him again and ran. Though he could not see anything but smoke and flying rubble, he could still feel Shenron's life force, though he did not know how. Alex jumped and spread his wings, trying to fly. His wings pumped with energy, and he was off. Turning around, Alex began to throw balls of bright blue energy towards the house. Alex turned back around and flew as fast as he could. Alex knew he had to fly somewhere, but he did not know where to go. Alex flew towards a huge building. As he approached it, he flew straight upward and landed on the top. His view was good enough to see a huge hole in the ground where his house used to be. Alex felt Shenron's energy, and knew he must be sensing his. Alex focused, trying to withdraw his power. He winced, again feeling pain, but not as much as before. A few seconds later, he could feel what normal was again. Alex sat down, not knowing what to do next. After a few minutes of thinking, Alex decided to stay put until he heard from Sparta.

(Ok guys! Review as fast as you can! =). I know things might still seem weird with the story, but it is just starting to come together and start making sense. So tell me what ya think!) (Oh, and, I also have pictures of: Alex in his angel form, Shenron in his oogly form, and the old guardians.) These pictures were downloaded from Webshots.com, and were probably ment for a totally different thing, then again, they matched what I had described them as. So credit goes to Webshots and the People who drew the pictures. If you would like to see a certain picture of one of the characters, let me know and I will post them. Just click on Lightangle, and the picture will be loaded.
