It had been well over two hours of nonstop searching, every officer that
could be spared was .
" Look Hawk Girl ,I trust your instincts on most every thing but are you sure he's here? "Kervron asked , as he wiped the sweat from his eyes . looking up the sun had less than an hour before setting completely
'I know what he was like, he always had a plane of everything and did everything to fool you and have you completely turned around .' she growled in frustration, she kept one eye on the ground and another on the sun., two hours later it was night fall and the moon had risen Shayera was starting to panic what if she had chosen wrong.
"Sir everyone has reported in nothing " a young officer said
' Pack it up then.. You tried Shayera. It was all you could do .' Kervron said looking at her, he shook his head and walked away leaving Shayera to her thoughts, but she wasn't doing a self-pity trip her brain had begun to click. Thinking back about what Kervron said about the druids and the south.. h said something about them liking everything in the south could he possibly be thinking the same .
Deep with in the southern forest a tall welt built Thangarian clearly distinguished by his golden wings, that had a purple sheen in the blue moon light above a cruel twisted smile was on his face as e looked at the young children in front of him
"Again she failed and victory is mine, the notes so well written and carefully concealed instruction were there for her to see' he snickered as the children shrunk away " I told her where to find you , so very careful was I. But you see no help coming for I have tricked her once again, I careful deceived her and lead her astray and Once again I have fooled her. Only an our to go until I claim your lives. In victory and leave you as a prize for her to see.' He said smiling wider now as he pulled a long thin knife from his belt.
"This knife has claimed lives before two children such as yourselves . Prizes as your selves left for her to see , her mistakes costed her as they will again ."he sneered and stroked the young girl's hair the boy started to cry and his cries echoed through out the forest ..
" Ohhh yes cry little one such as the one before you did.. His cries had gone unheard as well " he shouted to the tree tops ,"Cry little one it matters not' he said cruelly taunting the child before him.. As he danced around gleefully. His knife flashing in the moon light above.
" Only minuets to go... Oh such joy.. ' he said clasping his hands together ... then all traces of laughter and smiles left his features and a cold hard mask slid into place each step , dew dripped from the leaves on the trees as he came ever closer ..
'I claim victory once gain.. I have defeated you Shayera Hol once again I am Unstoppable!' he shouts and raises the knife high above the young boy who's cries had reached a crescendo
just as the knife makes it's downward stroke a figure came flying out of the woods landing in a heap and rolling to her knees
' Not yet you haven't ... clever to use the druids instead of Thanagarian mythology. " she said as they circled
"Hmm perhaps I made them to clear then, ahh well I shall deal with you and then them.. it will be my ultimate Victory!' he shouted and lunged for her. She side stepped his lunges and cursed her self for leaving her mace at her apartment.. he slashed and lunged and each time she barely blocked or dodged his blows he finally steps back laughing
'You know something, I wondered why you never figured the clues I handed you on Thanagar.. they were there to read as easy as you see" he said as he circled her. Teasing her with words " I do mean I wrote them so much clear then as I had not perfected my art of anagramming the words I wanted to use. The words then were right there mixed around in the message right in front of your nose or should I say beak but then again you were so young then. Much to young to figure out clear meanings, so tell me it really take you this long to figure out where I was... I will try to make it so much harder next time ." he said
'There isn't going to be a next time" she said coolly he looked at her
'There isn't? oh dear do tell you actually think you can stop me?" he started to laugh
'Ohh we have grown a back bone since last we met!' he declared and rushed her again , he caught her unprepared and sliced her upper arm , on his way by she grabbed his wrist and they began to grapple on the ground . they wrestled a while before a piercing scream rang through the forest, and everything seemed to stop they rolled away from the other and stood each eyeing the other down ,Shayera was hunched slightly holding her upper arm as he stood
"Hmmm so this ends our dance does it?' he asks as he sinks to his knees the knife had gone straight through his chest .." I was so enjoying taunting you... ahh well I will have eternity to do such a pleasurable thing .." he whispers and falls over .
' may be I doubt it ho ..' she replies and hurries over to the children Sirens are heard in the distance and yells and shouts could be heard
"Shayera!" Kervron . she smiled
'A little late Kervron, you missed all the fun .' she said glancing over at his body
' sorry traffic was awful" he said smiling as two women officers took the kids
" well so it's over?" he asked
' I wouldn't count on it.' She said as they left the trees and the cold forest night
" Look Hawk Girl ,I trust your instincts on most every thing but are you sure he's here? "Kervron asked , as he wiped the sweat from his eyes . looking up the sun had less than an hour before setting completely
