CHAPTER SIX
"My, my how the tables turn. Do you have any idea how hard it is to find you nowadays?" Kanoe, smiled visciously down at us.
Knives looked over this Kanoe guy and assessed his situation. His body, not in as good a shape as he'd like, could not hold up to a physical battle. But a mental one was totally within his power. Knives smiled inwardly.
"Leave or die Kanoe." Knives said without emotion.
"Oh? And how might two injured vagabonds like you gonna make me?"
Now knives smiled for all to see. He looked up into Kanoe's eyes, and proceeded to tear him apart. Kanoe had no chance. In a matter of seconds Mr. Kanoe Wolf-man was a pile of blood and gore, not even identifiable as human.
"Good god! Thats a neat trick." she jumped up to inspect his remains.
Knives leaned back and glared at a distant sand dune.
Mace caught his look, "What? Trouble? or travelers?"
"More trouble. Three more wolf-men and three cat-men as well."
"Cats and wolves working together? Someone must really want me dead." she jumped down from the gooey remains, "Lets head out." touching a specific spot on the boulder Knives was sitting on, a tunnel opened.
"Interesting," Knives bent over to examine the rock, but was yanked into the tunnel.
"No time for that! You can look at it later." Mace scolded him as the tunnel entrance closed.
"Its dark, but I can see. Hold on to me and I'll guide us through." Knives took hold of her hand reluctantly, and followed carefully. After about the fourth time he tripped over some rocks, he decided to see through her eyes. He reluctantly did so, because he didn't want to over hear something he didn't really want to.
"Seeing what I see huh?" Knives didn't respond, only kept walking forward. Ever forward. Onward and forward, for what seemed like days. They rested occasionally, not knowing if theeir persuers knew of the tunnel, and not taking a chance either way. The farther along they went, the deeper into the planet they went. The deeper they went, the more carvings and paintings on the walls they saw. All were untouched for god knows how long, and still to be untouched for many more years.
"What are these?"
"Ancient writing of Demon-kind. The deeper you go the older and more frequent they get. Very few know what they mean."
"I could guess," Knives pointed to what looked like a huge meteor craching into a planet, "Somehting along the lines of what the humans call Armegedon: The end of the World. Simple really. Pictures to represent things or places."
"Uh huh, and what about this one?" she pointed to a funky black star shaped this with a crown attached to it.
He pondered, "Star born?"
"Close. Child from heaven. I translated this one myself. Came to me in a dream."
They continued their walk in silence, Knives pondering the drawings, while Mace lead on.
