Chapter 4

The Massacre

I woke up on top of my broken down tower. My head was pounding, what had happened to me. Soon everything came back to me, I had done the absorption ritual Metal Kor had taught me. I looked at my hands and noticed the new armor I had on my forearms and the blasters that were attached. I slowly brought myself to stand on all my legs, looked around and all the troops were patrolling the area. They were indeed much more experienced than my previous underlings. I leaped down to the center of the area and called for them.

"Come take a look at your new leader!" I yelled as I presented myself to them. "Now there is an elf I am particularly worried about. His name is Jak, and he can transform to a dark elf with horns and claws! He is very dangerous so don't use your normal approach to elves, don't even approach him the way you would an Elite Krimzon Guard! You have to be at your strongest. He threatens us all! Our very existence but we won't let him kill us because we are the best that the nest has to offer!" I said in our language of course because very few hora-quan understand the elvin language like myself and Metal Kor.

I had to inspire them because to defeat him we'll need more than the average hora-quan.

"We will beat him! QUANNN!"

"QUANNNNN!" they all screamed.

(Later that day)

I was training all the troops, there were targets set up everywhere for the cloakers to practice on. I watched as all the rifle wielders sparred and practiced their hand to hand because they're marksmanship was already only second to mine. Suddenly I heard the opening of the first of two gates into the city.

"STOP!" I yelled in our language. "TO YOUR STATIONS!"

They all obeyed and rushed to they're stations. The cloakers turned on they're cloaking devices, the rifle weilders all grabbed their rilfes and hid. I turned on my cloaking device and stood on the wall to the right of the gate and saw it opened. I watched as a group of armed elves walked through. In the middle was an elf with two pistols holstered at his hips and a dagger on his back, I assumed he was the leader by the intense yet laid back look on his face. Next to him was the dark elf with that orange little annoyance on his shoulder. The group of elves progressed into an area where all my troops had a perfect shot and I signaled for them to engage. One cloaker jumped out and crushed one of they're heads between his two blasters that were his forearms. A rifle wielder jumped out and unloaded on a few of the elves. The elves that had not been shot began to shoot at the rifle wielders, only occasionally hitting them. I heard the leader yell to the dark elf.

"Jak! Find the leader, take him out!"

Jak had already drawn his gun and had landed a few shots from a large, rapid fire gun on some cloakers. He nodded and began to run to a high place. I jumped down from the wall and snapped a few necks on my way. I followed him to a place he had stopped to look around for me. I slowly crept up behind him, turned off my cloaking device, and landed a strong punch to his spine. He fell to the ground along with the fuzzy creature, before it could say anything I picked up the small animal and threw it aside.

"Remember me?" I sneered.

He looked at me surprised and not believing his eyes, "You! You've.. changed!"

"I have enhanced myself by absorbing some other hora-quan, or as you call us metal heads."

I raised my fist and fired from my blaster; he jumped up and dodged all the shots except for the last. It struck him in the shoulder leaving a smoking skinless area.

"Ahhhh!" he screamed as smoke continued to come from his shoulder. He glanced at it and then drew his gun. His gun changed to something I had never seen before, where the barrel normally was there was a small imitation of a hora-quan head. He began to charge it and blue energy began to appear around the head. I began to shoot from my left blaster but he dodged the shots and as the gun became fully charged he fired it and thanks to my new reflexes I dodged it but I felt a shock and noticed a mark on my right bicep that resembled a triangle that had been pushed in on the three sides. I charged at him and he changed his gun to a rifle and began to aim at my heart and fired. It slowed me down for a half second but I was fine thanks to my chest plate. I snagged his rifle and threw it in the opposite direction that I had tossed his pet. I grabbed him by the throat and lifted him above my eyelevel, then I slammed him on his back and held him down by his neck. I noticed the same changes from before, his eyes became completely black and his skin and hair became pale. His claws grew longer than my own and horns grew from above his forehead. He threw his claws at my hand that was holding him down but I pulled away and smacked his hands away with one of my front legs. He tried to get to his feet and I picked him up by the straps on his chest and punched him in the face. To my surprise he kicked me right back in mine. I dropped him and he fell to his feet, he then jumped and drop kicked me in the stomach and then did a flip off of me landing in a crouching position.

"RAAAAAH!" I lunged at him but he slid out of the way, I turned and saw him land a kick to my side. I ignored it and grabbed his face with my hand. (Yes his hand is big enough to grab Jak's entire face) I began to charge my free blaster to unleash a massive blast of energy. He was struggling, trying to get my hand off of his face as I held him in the air. When my weapon had finished charging I shot his torso sending him flying into the thick, heavy mud. I watched as he got loose and ran towards the gate and he yelled to his comrades.

"Retreat! They're too strong!"

The leader yelled back, "Jak I make the orders around here! and I say!.." his voice trailed off as he saw another one of his own being disemboweled by a rifle wielder.

"Retreat!" he yelled to the rest of them.

My troops that hadn't died in the fight began to follow the very few that were retreating.

"ROHHG!" I bellowed. It was a single word that meant "let them go" in our language.

There were only two rifle wielders and one cloaker that had not died during the battle. We had started with less but the elves lost more men. I heard the familiar sound of the wings of a hora-quan scout coming towards me. He landed in front of me and began his message, from Metal Kor.

Oooooo! Suspenseness! Kinda I'm not good at that but oh well. Please review!
