Chapter 3

The Ritual Begins

It was good to be back in dead town. The new troops were setting up the arrangement of eco sacs. There was 1 in the middle, where I would stand and 4 all at equal length from the middle sac and all at equal length from each other. Those sacs were where the hora-quan I was absorbing would stand. I was carving the type of each hora-quan being absorbed on a rock slab to be placed under the eco sac. Finally I had to carve my name and type on a larger slab and place it under the middle eco sac.

When all the preparations were finished the 2 cloakers that I was going to absorb stood at opposite sides of me and so did the 2 rifle weilders. I stood in the middle and began to recite the incantation.

"Grusahg chumehg, guhsok, yeshmig frugos, Gashahg!"

Eco bolts came from the sac below me surging towards the sacs below the others, when hit eco came from the other sacs surging up to the others' skull gems. As I watched the hora-quan surrounding me were pulled into the eco sacs under them. When they had been absorbed into the eco sacs the eco from mine began pulling them toward me. They were absorbed into the eco sac and then bolts of eco begun surging to my skull gem. I felt the power pour into my body. My spine began to straighten out from it's normal hunched over position. The shoulder/back armor that was on my back became just back armor and I began to grow new shoulder armor. I grew a chestplate and my spider like legs began to grow bigger. I suddenly felt my arms were heavier and I looked at them and I now had full armor around them and a blaster was mounted on each 1. The heaviness soon dissipated as my biceps began to grow and increase in power far beyond what would be thought by their size. My neck straightened up and the stem that grew from the back end of my head moved to where my head connected with my neck and the other end was right at the base of my neck. The transformation was complete. I looked around and the rock slabs that I had carved had nothing carved on them and the slab beneath me had my name still but it had a different type written on it, It said 'spider master'.

The others that I had not absorbed stared at me in awe. I admired my new gauntlets and blasters, thinking of what I could do. Suddenly I felt a wave of exhaustion wash over every inch of my being. Metal Kor had said that I would need rest after the ritual but I had no idea it would be this strong. I told the troops that were left to carry me to a safe place where I could rest, and then I lost consciousness.

SRRY! Super extra short chapter I promise to write a longer one next time. Don't kill me!
