Nuwisha (coyote) desert part 1 of 3
It was a day like any
other well for someone in my position anyways. I woke up with Rem in
our little room. It's been three days since we left Gaia City and
the Tsunamis has been on auto pilot heading towards the Guarl
mountains for our first clue to the sword's heart.
"Look to
the mountains where the bears call their home." After a
long argument with Rem and Skara just only a few hours after we got
out of the city ken told us that the Guarl Mountains were nicknamed
"Bear Mountains" due to the fact there's a resort there ran by
Russian Ursurig and Tediursa and most of the population are composed
of them. Knowing that everyone was asleep. I got up got dressed and
went to the driving cabin of the RV To see how far were we from the
mountains. It was 8:00 in the morning and we had 300 miles (2000
kilometers it think) left to go. "Things seem to be on coerce." I
said. As usual my big mouth betrays me. The vehicle started to
sputter soon it started to lower. Fortunately there was a petrol
(gas) station near by I switched the controls to manual and drove
into it. The vehicle landed with a thud on the ground in front of the
station. I got out of the RV and looked around. The place looked like
one you would find on route 66 it was old, dilapidated, and native
American music was playing in the background, too top it all off
there was an old man in a rocking chair with his hat over his face
and his tail sweeping the ground it was sitting on. Telling by the
striped fur he was a Arcanine morph but his body structure was
different he looked different from normal Arcanine he looked more
like a coyote also his fur was more of a sandy brown than the usual
orange or red. Telling by his age he might be at least 70 or 80 in
dog years he would be dead. I went up to the old man and tapped on
one of the claws on his foot. He twitched, Got up, straitened his
cowboy hat, and yawned. "Yes what is it that you need young one?"
he answered his voice gave away his nation Native American. "We're
out of fuel. Do you have any pure water?" I responded. "Nope
can't help you. Maybe someone in town can." I looked at him
confused. "The next town is 290 miles away. Do you see a town
around here?" The old man was a little ticked. "You mean your
fancy toys and machines can not see what is before or rather under
you?" "Under?" I responded. The old man went over to one of the
gas pumps and flipped the switch under the pump. The whole gas
station "Slid" back on the desert ground revealing a large
opening to a huge underground reservation the place looked like an
underground version of an Indian village it had an artificial sun
above it and the place looked like it was from the Wild West. I
walked on to the edge of the place and yelped the ground was hot as
hell the old man reached into the chest he had his feet propped up on
and pulled out a pair of sandals that were my size. Then he held his
hand out like he was asking for money. "All I have is credits."
"I know touch my paw and it will be transferred." I
reached out and touched that blistered, dirt covered, paw and a few
sparks jumped from my hands. Which made me freak out a bit. He handed
me the sandals and nodded. Rem walked out and was looking at what was
going on. The old man had a nosebleed at the site of her. She was in
her nude suit the old man was unconscious due to the site. After
yelling at Rem for that I smacked him awake. "What is going on?
That girl over there is naked!" Rem pulled one of the straps on her
nude suit showing that it was a bathing suit he calmed down and
offered her a pair of sandals. She declined and tried to walk into
the town until she got half past the entrance and it started to
scorch her feet she then dashed back out. She then took him up on his
offer and slipped them on. "Rem could you change before you go into
town?" she shrugged and went into the RV. After 30 minuets (5
minuets women's time) she was out and dressed in an odd outfit. It
looked like a mix between a modern outfit and an old Native American
one she still had the nude suit on but she was wearing a leather
short sleeved vest with tassel on the bottom, tons of pockets and all
sorts of tribal symbols on it. The skirt was short leather one that
matched the vest. That's what took so long she had to find one that
matched the sandals. "I got you one as well it's in the bedroom."
I let out a small sigh and went in to change. After a while I came
out dressed in a lowing cloth and a vest without the arms and a belt
with all sorts of bags and holsters for weapons and equipment. I had
my nude suit on as well. The old man was trying to keep his face
strait. Trying not to laugh at how silly we looked but soon busted
out into guffaw. We looked like stereotypical Indians in fact he came
up to us with some weird looking paint and brushed it onto our faces.
"Well now you look like our people go ahead and enter 'Morning
Thunder' and 'White river'." I tried to keep a strait face
trying not to get angry since the old man was enjoying himself making
us look like fools! I walked down the sandy rocks leading into the
village dragging Rem with me. Right behind us the door slammed shut I
tried to do something but it was sealed shut so I decided to head
down towards the village with Rem not knowing what was up ahead. Not
knowing that we would be fighting for our memories and our
souls. Meanwhile outside the old man were busy covering
things up. He pulled on his face pulling off a latex mask revealing
that he was actually a young raichu morph. He detached the gas pumps
from the ground and brought them inside then after a few moments the
gas station changed into a motel via holographic disguise he then
changed outfits and walked up to the RV. Ken got up after hearing a
few knocks on the outside and went to the door. The raichu was
outside writing on a tablet. "Sorry sir but I will have to tow this
vehicle. It was parked illegally on this lot and the zone governments
has issued a immediate impound of this vehicle." Ken had a bit of a
surprised look on his face. And looked to his jacket that was in the
closet next to the entrance he opened it and pulled his badge out of
the jacket His face was met with a handgun. "Out of the vehicle
now!" He nudged his gun to the right telling ken to leave ken
reluctantly raised his hands and walked out. Skara was watching this
from a safe distance she decided to play it stealth already armed
with an auto magnum. The Raichu lead Ken into the motel and locked
him in a room. "I'll be here to deal with you latter." He then
walked over to the RV with some C4 and was placing the charges until
he noticed a small red dot on his nose and immediately moved before
the bullet was fired He pulled out his gun looking around for what
was shooting at him. "Well you Gaian coward show yourself!"
Skara was on the top of the RV reloading her gun. " Why are you
doing this?" The Raichu shot at her but all he hit was air. "I am
doing what is necessary to ensure the survival of my tribe. Soon your
friends won't even recognize you." He said as he reloaded. But as
he was she shot the gun out of his hands. She then leaped down from
her hiding spot and struck him down. After she freed Ken and bound
the raichu up she decided to start with the interrogation. "Where
are they?" "Like hell I'll tell you." "Wrong
answer!" she brought one of her spikes right near between his legs
"Ok. Ok I'll tell you. They are in the village." "Why
are you doing this?" she asked "Ever since the aliens moved us
here out tribe has been dieing and now we are trying to take every
Raichu we can find to this secret reservation. Trying to preserve our
way of life far from the corruption of technology. For we are the
black thunder tribe and all Raichu are our kin we are bringing them
home!" "Your cause is noble indeed but there is
another way to do this besides kidnapping and murder. Just tell us
where the village is and we can work things out. Those raichu you
taken are our friends we need their help." The Raichu smirked and
laughed. "Good luck they won't recognize you as soon as they set
foot in that village they will be taken and their memories erased
they will no longer be themselves but 'Morning Thunder' and
'White River' a new couple to continue our way of life. You
Gaians don't notice what's above or below you." Skara
immediately picked up on his riddle and punched his lights out
"Thanks for the tip!" She said and went off trying to dig a way
in. Hopeing it wasn't too late.
