Chapter 8: consequences
Metamoor.
Phobos was pacing heavily about his throne room. Recently he had had Cedric re-awaken three of his most powerful and also three of his oldest warriors. The Sentinels "of rock ice and steel. He had uncovered these "warriors decades earlier shortly after he discovered some of the earliest Guardians of the veil.
Now Phobos impatiently waited for his warriors to return.
"What is taking them so long?" Phobos impatiently hissed.
"I'm sure the Sentinels will not fail master." Cedric responded from his bowing position at the base of the steps leading to Phobos throne.
Has if in answer to his question a large portal appeared near the entrance to the throne room. The three black robed warriors emerged each taking a bowing position in front of Phobos.
"Well?" Phobos snapped demandingly.
"Have you destroyed the Guardians yet?"
"The earth guardian and the air guardian were slain in our encounter with three of the guardians. Only the water Guardian and the holder of the heart of Candracar remain." The steel sentinel reported in its mechanical sounding voice.
"Why didn't you finish them off!" Phobos snarled.
"The keeper of the heart was not present in battle and the water Guardian retreated. We decided to temporarily regroup." The Sentinel explained.
"I see…" Phobos mused.
"You will return to earth immediately to complete your mission. Cedric go with them make sure they complete their task." Phobos ordered.
"At once my liege!" Cedric saluted resolutely.
Cedric began to convulse heavily has his boy transformed into his true metamoorian growing his massive snake like tail. A moment later the portal re-opened and Cedric and the three Sentinels returned to Heatherfield once again.
Heatherfield.
Will "laid across her bed half heartedly playing with her frog plush toy that was normally positioned on her computer desk. It had only been a day or two since she had resigned her position has leader of the Guardians and she had found herself regretting it ever since.
Hay-lin and Irma had barely said a word to her today in school Cornelia had been the worst. She was the first to openly blame Will for what happened to Taranee and in all honestly Will couldn't blame her.
Though she was sure she could count on Cornelia to lead the Guardians she couldn't help but wonder if something might happen to them captured by Phobos new enemies the list was essentially endless…
" Huh, I hope they're alright." Will sighed.
Just then "She was startled by a loud banging against the front door. Her mom was out working late and wouldn't be home until gone ten so "Will quickly ran down stairs to respond to the frantic banging against the door. She opened the door, which revealed an out of breath and panicked Irma.
"Irma? What happened to you?" Will asked in an alarmed voice.
"New… bad guys… These ones are bad they took out Hay-lin and Cornelia." Irma gasped has she struggled to regain her breath.
"What…?" Will asked taken aback by the last thing Irma had said.
"You mean that Cornelia and Hay-lin are… are… "She couldn't bring herself to finish the sentence.
"Yeah… they are…" Irma finished for her, her head held her in her hands.
"Just like Taranee…"
"Who did this?" Will asked now beginning to get angry.
"Some guys in hooded black robes, they called themselves the Sentinels. "Big really "strong and fast. They would have got me to if I hadn't been lucky."
"The Sentinels huh?" Never heard of them. Will shrugged
"What about Caleb?" Irma suggested.
"Maybe he's heard of these guys."
"Great idea! Will said pulling out her mobile."
"I hope Caleb's phone is switched on for once." She dialled in Caleb's number and waited for the answer.
Chapter 9 will be up shortly and Caleb is finally up for his late arrival.
