Chapter 4: how to deal.
Metamoor.
Cedric slithered along the tall dark corridors of the palace at a quick pace in spite of his bruises he still stood tall and strong his cruel golden coloured eyes challenging any of the guards under his command to say otherwise and meet their untimely ends. Frost marched alongside his leader his footfalls heavy on the stone floor.
Eventually the two reached a large room with cavernous ceiling the walls were adorned with various artworks each one seemed to depict some other worldly horror or terrified individual in some sort of hellish environment, the walls were also adorned with statues and statuettes of demonic like creatures. In the centre of the room was a long red carpet "which climbed up a set of steps to a tall shadowy throne which seemed to be made of skulls and ethereal or demonic faces all screaming in agony and torment.
"Lord Cedric what news have, you to report?" Asked a voice from the throne which seemed to come from the blackness of the shadows themselves.
Cedric and Frost each went into deep bowing positions placing their arms across their chests "has a mark of respect to the prince of meridian.
"Sire I bring news that I am sure you will find most pleasing." Cedric said.
"I see then you have succeeded in securing the portal to earth so my army's can invade?" Prince Phobos asked his voice filled with false sincerity.
"Um… well… that's… not exactly… true." Cedric gulped fearfully suddenly taken aback by his "masters assumption.
"Then you have failed me… again." Phobos stated coldly has he began" to produce a sphere, of glowing black and purple energy in his hand.
"I grow weary of you incompetence Lord Cedric perhaps its time for me to enlist the aid of someone more reliable." Phobos explained matter-of-factly.
"Wait my lord!" Cedric pleaded fearfully.
"I bring news about the guardians."
"Continue…" Phobos said lowering the sphere of dark energy slightly.
"I have destroyed the guardian of fire." The snake like monster explained.
"Really?" Phobos mused leaning forward in his throne now more interested.
"So the guardians are no longer at full strength? Excellent." Phobos said emphasising the last word has much has possible.
"With the guardians strength depleted the rest will be easy prey for my minions." Phobos said thoughtfully.
"Lord Cedric, make preparations to destroying the remaining guardians. Save the keeper of the heart of Candracar until last. With her fellow guardians destroyed she will be far easier to destroy." Phobos explained.
"At once my lord." With that said Cedric and Frost marched out of their lords presence to make the preparations for the guardians fall.
Heatherfield.
Will was in her guardian form battling with Cedric the two seemed to be battling in some otherworldly environment. Dark shadows constantly spinning around the two. Cedric attacked first "Will quickly dodged each of his vicious attacks her movements seemed to be lightning fast. Each time Cedric attacked she was able to dodge the attack perfectly and in the same movement deliver her own counter attack. But however every time she attacked Cedric he seemed to dodge her moving has if he were a living shadow. "He began producing a sphere of "white hot energy in the palm of his hand.
Cedric hurled the ball hard towards the keeper of the heart of Candracar. The lethal blast seemed to be moving in slow motion but she couldn't move fast enough to dodge it. At the last second the blast curved around her only inches from contacting her chest and went for a new target.
"Taranee…" Will yelled desperately to her friend. She could only watch has the deadly ball of energy slowly closed' in on its new target. Will could only stare in horror has Taranee was impacted by the deadly attack. Watch has Taranee screamed in agony. Watch has her lifeless form fell and sprawled across the floor.
Noooo!
Will called out desperately. She suddenly heard a strange beeping noise from some were far off.
BEEP BEEP BEEP
She searched trying to find the source of the noise.
BEEP BEEP BEEP
Wills eyes fluttered open. She reached over and her fist hit the snooze button silencing her alarm clock. She stared at the time on the "clock, which read 7:00 o clock.
"Just a dream." She sighed with relief. She thought for a moment has she worked out what she needed to do today.
Get dressed.
Go to school.
Meet with gang…
That was when the memories of the previous night returned to her. One of her fellow "guardians was dead. Will had led the guardians into battle against Cedric and Frost and had made an unforgivable mistake.
"Taranee Cook one of Wills closest friends and guardian with the power of the element fire had been killed by Cedric. Worst of all she had been killed trying to protect Will from Cedric. Will, could hardly bare the guilt she felt over letting her friend die in such a way. Tears began to well up in her eyes and spilled down her cheeks. She sat "cross legged in her bed crying and mourning for her lost friend. Her mind began to wonder and images of Irma, Cornelia, and Hay-lin all meeting similar fates to Taranees assaulted her mind. She held her hands to the sides of her face has she mentally blocked the disturbing images from her mind.
"No." She said quietly in a determined voice.
"I won't let that happen."
"Will could think of only one way to stopping "herself loosing anymore of her friends. She stared determinedly at the heart of Candracar has the harsh reality hit her. She had two options from were she was standing:
One: the Guardians continued to battle Phobos and his minions until Will or one of her friends suffered the same fate has Taranee.
Or two: Will would quit being the leader of the guardians of the veil. She would cease being a guardian all together. The Oracle could find a new group to be the Guardians of the veil for all she cared.
Will grimly decided the second option was the only way she could ensure her friends safety she prayed it was the right choice…
