Chapter 8; the winds of change
7:20pm, Medabot graveyard
"Deacon its been along time" The Medabot in the centre of the cavern said in a deep voice. I thought to my self 'how did he know my name, unless this is the Medal that ran off with the Belzelga but sill how did that know my name?'
"Alright you, how do you know my name?!!" I yelled
The Medabots eyes widened and he looked to the side "I'm surprised you don't recognize me Deacon, after all we were best friends…"
"Don't listen to him, he's just trying to sike you out" Metabee said
"Why do you stay with theses Medabots Deacon? they are below you…" the Medabot said as he looked back and fixed his stare on Archon "…And you Archon… I'm so ashamed, you of all Medabots"
"Archon what's he talking about?" Archon didn't answer me.
"Who I go around with now is my own choice, what happened thousands of centauries is long dead and I've forgotten about the past" Archon said to the other Medabot
"Thousands of centauries ago?" Fenix sounded baffled, but then who could under stand what Archon and that other Medabot were talking about.
"Deacon what are those two talking about?" Brass asked
"I don't know" I answered "What's your name?!"
"My name? Archon have you not told her any thing of her past after you wiped her memory?"
"Archon for the last time what are you two talking about?" I asked Archon, Archon looked at me as if to say 'you don't kneed to know yet'
"Tsk, tsk Archon aren't you going to tell her?" the Medabot said
"This is Leon, he's the Medabot who controls… wind" Archon said
"I don't care if he can or not, I just want some straight answers" I got in to a fighting stance, and formed fore long blades out of Bio-metal, spread my wings and took five steps out to wards him "Don't make me hurt you"
"Well at least you haven't forgotten how do to that, over the many years" the Medabot the pulled his sword out of the ground and razed it to wards me "I don't want to fight you, but if you insist"
"Come on!" Metabee shouted as he fired his repeater round in to Leon, not one of them hit it was like they all hit the air, then I thought 'Maybe what Archon said was true, maybe he can control the wind!'
"Phi Blade!" Fenix yelled as he ran to wards Leon, a long blue shockwave of energy flew to wards Leon guided by Fenixes arm, but Fenix was thrown to one side by an invisible force he landed in a pile of old Medabots "Is… that… the best… you've, got?"
"Giga wind!" Leon's armour started to glow a ghostly white and a tornado invoked the cavern. Sand and rocks started to fly about the room.
"Hold on to something!" Brass shouted over the howling winds, every on grabbed on to one of the stalagmites that was around the edge of the room except me I stood strong in the middle of the cavern, the winds started to pick up speed and I felt my self getting pushed back wards.
"Deacon close you wings!" Metabee shouted to me over the wind, no matter how much tried to close them, the force of the wind kept them open, I struggled to stay in one place.
"Stop… it, that's… enough!" I shouted, Leon then turned and walked out of the cavern through the archway that was behind him, when he was out of sight the winds died down. I fell to my knees and my wings buckle under there own weight. "What the heck was that?"
"That was Leon's wind control Medal" Archon said
"I thought you were just joking about that" Metabee said
"Metabee! Are you ok!" Ikki shouted as he ran through the archway that we'd use to gain access to he cavern.
"I'm fine" Metabee replied
"What about you Deacon?" Kirsty asked me, I didn't say anything I just nodded
"Are you sure, 'cause a big gust of wind came out of the tunnel entrance, big enough to knock us over, hay Jordan?" Josh said mockingly
"I'll say" Jordan said under his breath
"A Medabot did that," Fenix said
"A Medabot?" Dr.Aki asked as he also walked through the archway
"Yeah a Medabot did that, and Archon knows more about this than he's letting on to" I said as I stood up and folded my wings back in "So are you going to tell us what's going on here?"
"You would have found out sooner or later any way, but I still cant tell you yet" Archon said "Right now if he finds the other three Medals Dr.Aki got, were all done for, we have to get back to them before he does"
"What theses Medals?" Dr.Aki took out the three Medals that he had got from the museum. "Deacon gave them to me"
"I didn't think they'd be safe left there" I explained
"So don't you think we should get out of here?" Erika asked
"Yeah then maybe we can get back at Leon" Metabee said, we started to walk out of the arch way what Leon made his escape out of, the last cavern we emerged in to was full of pools of water, but it wasn't a cavern it was an immensely deep gorge and the only way out was up. "How did Leon get out of here?"
"What now then?" Kirsty asked
"Well it looks like we won't be going this way now" Dr.Aki said, we all turned around and walked back the way that we came from, back to the hopmart Ikki, Metabee, Erika and Brass went home to catch some z's, then the rest of us when to the Medabot corp. because we had no where else to go but that didn't bother us much.
12:35pm, Medabot corp.
I couldn't get to sleep all night so I stayed up looking out of the window at the city below, I was amazed at the city as I had never been in one at night, the moon light shafted silver light over the tables and floor in the room, the only noises to be heard in the room were the snoring of Kirsty, Jordan and Josh and the gliding of my own Medaparts. Occasionally footsteps could be heard in the corridor and Dr.Aki would come in to check up on us.
"Deacon get some rest, you've got along ay ahead of you" Dr.Aki whispered, I refused to every time.
9:00am, Medabot corp.
Before every one had woken up I slipped away to the roof of the Medabot corp. the wind was chilling but the sun's rays were filled with warmth.
"Deacon, why do you resist your own past?" I voice said from behind me, I turned sharply to see who it was but there was no one there.
"Show your self!" I shouted out hoping that the person who said that would come forth. But no one did, and as soon as the voice was silenced the wind stopped blowing and I knew then it was Leon talking to me. About five minuets after Leon had spoken the medallion underneath my bandanna started to tick, it had never done that before. I ran back in side and down the stairs, in to the room where every one was a sleep; know one was there so I ran round the Medabot corp. looking for them, I looked every where but there was no sign of them. I found Dr.Aki sitting own in the reception area reading a paper "Dr.Aki, where's Kirsty!?"
"They just went to get the others, don't worry they'll be back soon" He said
"Ok but in the mean time look at this" I took out the medallion and showed it to him.
"That's a nice watch where'd you get it from?"
"I've had it for ages but it only just started to tick ten minuets ago, and look all the numbers are missing but above all I didn't know it was a clock" I explained, the numbers had been replaced with runes and the clock didn't have a second hand.
"Mind if I take a closer look?"
"No, not at all" I took the clock from around my neck part and handed it to him "And look that rune at the bottom is in a bright red colour when the ones before it are black an the ones after it are green"
"I really have know idea what this is"
"I bet I know some one who dose though" I grabbed the watch and ran out of the sliding doors, along the path way but I soon ran back in because I didn't know where I was going. "Dr.Aki what direction did they go in?"
"Come on I'll show you" Dr.Aki said as he got you and walked out of another door, I followed closely, the door lead to the car park of the Medabot corp., Dr.Aki then got in to a blue convertible. "Get in, I'll take you to them" I did what he'd said to do, with in a few seconds we were out of the car park and on to the main road.
9:50am, out side the Tenryou residence
Dr.Aki sure got us here fast, he was driving like nothing I'd never seen, there was no sign of Kirsty, Jordan and Josh. "Where are they?"
"I don't know, maybe they've all ready gone" Dr.Aki said as he parked the car out side. "Why don't you go and knock on the door so see where they are"
"Ok but I don't think they'll be there" I walked up to the front door and rang the bell, a lady wearing a light purple dress and a cream coloured apron came to the door, she had green eyes and long brown hair.
"Oh, can I help you?" She said
"Uhh… yeah, is Metabee or Ikki there?"
"You must be there little Medabot friend there telling me so much about" she smiled at me, if I could have smiled back I would have "Sorry but there still in bed, they had a long night last night from what they tell me, but I'll go and try to get them up there never easy to move in the morning"
"I'm sure," I said back, the lady then went off up the stairs, when she came back she was carrying a load of laundry.
"They'll be down in a minuet" she said as she past by the door, so leant against the wall that was next to the door and waited, I watched the clock that was on the wall in the hall way, the time was 10:55am, I had been standing there for well over an hour now.
"Deacon what's taking so long? And where are the rest of them?" Dr.Aki said as he walked up the pathway to the house.
"Ikki and Metabee are still asleep, but I don't know where Kirsty is" I said
"Are they still not up yet?" a familiar voice said, it was the lady who answered the door before "You can go up and see where they are, if you want"
"Err… well if they aren't going to get up them self's, ok" I walked in to the house and half way up the stairs, "…What room is it?"
"Don't worry you'll find it, it's the one with loads of snoring" Dr.Aki said, I carried up the stairs to the landing, Dr.Aki was right there was one room with a great deal of snoring, I opened the door just enough to look through, then opening it all the way so I could actually get in the room, they were both mumbling things in there sleep, I didn't want to wake them but after thinking weather I should or not I decided to wake them. I walked up to Metabee and crouched next to him.
"Come on, wakey, wakey," I said softly as I put one hand on Metabee's arm, all of a sudden there was a chime emitted from the Medallion I was carrying with me and all conscious thinking and movement was lost as I slipped into a dream world.
"Deacon? Deacon? Are you ok?" a voice said I couldn't see who it was because every thing was blurry, but as the surrounding images became clearer it all became very apparent who it was that was asking me whether I was ok.
"Hu… what?"
"Are you ok? And what are you doing here?"
"What do you mean, what am I doing here? I came to wa…" I didn't finish something just made me stop, it may have been that the bed room was gone in stead there were rolling hills, ever so delicate grass blades that swayed in the wind and a sea that went as far as the imagination could stretch. Even further out at sea there were several large crystal looking pillars, with one larger central pillar that reached beyond the clouds.
"Are you sure you're ok?" Metabee asked
"Well apart from the fact I don't know where the heck I am, yeah I'm fine"
"Your in my Memory of the past"
"Err… Metabee what are you talking about?"
"Ok, get this, about a year ago at the world championships, the basement of the stadium was turned in to a giant aerial by a gang known as the rubber robo's, when two rare Medals were used against each other the aerial was activated, this transmitted a mind altering resonance to Medabots in the world and fed them memories of the past"
"Oh… this is all starting to make a creepy sort of sense, Kirsty told me that a month before I was activated that all the Medabots were acting strange"
"That's because of what happened at the world robattle championships, even I was affected but that's because, my Medal, was the one to start, it off" Metabee said as he lowered his head away from me
"Hey, come on how did you know that was going to happen?"
"Yeah, I didn't know that was going to happen!"
"Why don't you show me around, as long as I'm here?"
"Why not, this is a dream about my past but I'm still not sure why you're here"
"Dream…" I said as Metabee pulled me to my feet, he then started to walk down the hill we were situated at, on the other side of the hill was a town or village or something it didn't have any houses from what I could tell only floating white spherical shaped buildings, they were all connected by along tunnel to a larger semi circle building. A long time after we had gone every possible place around the area, I understood what most things were and a bit more of Medabot history.
"Keumou! Naoki!" a familiar voice shouted, it was Brass and she was walking straight up to us.
"Naoki? Who's that?" I said as I looked behind my self
"Dude I think that's you" Metabee whispered
"How can that be me?"
"Just play along"
"Naoki, the council wants to see you about you're proposal" Brass said
"My what now? Oh… oh you mean that proposal," I said as I tried to 'play along'. Brass then lead us through the city to the centre where there was a large temple that was built in sections staked on top of each other with a long flight of stairs going up the centre to the top, in side the corridors were long, winding and covered in rune's. After a long walk we came to a big round room, in the centre there was nothing except a low-hanging spotlight, around the edge of the rooms were ten podiums with names on the front written on a sheet of gold, Metabee's new found name Keumou, and my equally as new name Naoki were written on the front of two different podiums that were next to each other.
"This meeting has been called today, to discus whether Naoki should stay the Defender," a Medabot said from behind one of the taller podiums.
