Land of Ice: Chapter 3
Introductions
The being pounced at Onewa, her claws and fangs bared. Just as she was about to strike the Toa of Stone, she suddenly became suspended in midair. Nuju had activated his mask power, just in time to save Onewa a great deal of pain. The being looked surprised for a moment then began struggling in midair.
"Let me down you creep!" she growled, still struggling.
"Not until you explain why you were attacking us!" Vakama replied.
"I'm attacking you, because that jerk started messing with my mind!" she snapped, pointing at Onewa.
The other Toa glared at their Stone brother.
"What? I thought she was some weird Rahi!" Onewa said defensively.
"Now put me down!" the being yelled.
"And if we don't?" Matau taunted.
"I've got seven brothers and sisters back home, and I can call them right now. Either put me down or I'll get them to tear you to shreds." She threatened.
"I was just kidding! Jeez, can't you take a funny-joke?" Matau asked.
Nuju rolled his eyes, and gently lowered the being to the ground. She then snorted, turned around, and started to walk away.
"Wait a minute!" Whenua called, and the being stopped and looked over her shoulder. "What are you?"
"I'm a wolf-demon." she replied. Then she sighed and said, "You'd better come with me. It'll be dark soon, and you don't want to get caught in the cold."
Not knowing what else to do, the Toa started following her. There was an uncomfortable silence as they walked. It was Nokama who broke it.
"So, do you have a name?" the Toa of Water asked.
The demon hesitated for a moment, than replied, "Its Maggie."
"Maggie…interesting name…" commented Whenua, questions filling his mind.
How can she jump that high? How did she get her name? How does she survive in this weather? He wondered.
"And what are your names?" Maggie asked.
"I'm Vakama, the brown one is Onewa, the blue one is Nokama, the green one is Matau, the white one is Nuju, and the black one is Whenua." Vakama replied.
They had been walking for about an hour when Maggie halted in front of nine bumps of snow.
"Brothers, sisters, I'm back!" she called.
Is she cross-wired or something? Matau wondered. All there is here is snow!
Suddenly, the bumps in the snow began moving. A moment later, seven demon heads popped out of the snow, as well as two wolf heads. They all had the same pointy ears, claws, and wolf-tails as Maggie did. There were three girls, and four boys. One girl had brown skin, long black hair, kept in a braid, sapphire colored eyes, and had bow and some arrows on her back. The second girl had pale skin, with short blonde hair, red eyes, purple stripes on her cheeks, and a long sword at her hip. The third girl had tanned skin, long silver hair which flowed down a her back, aqua green eyes, and had a large boomerang-like weapon on her back. The First boy had long brown hair, which he held in a ponytail, icy blue eyes, and a spear on his back. The second boy had short black hair, gray eyes, and had a whip at his waist. The third boy had shoulder-length blonde hair, greenish-blue eyes, and had two katana at his hips. The fourth boy was the smallest. He had long black hair that flowed down his back, golden eyes, and a simple dagger, much like Maggie's. Then there were two wolves one with white fur, the other with black.
Maggie smiled, and said, "Guys, these are my siblings."
"I'm Sapphire." the girl with the bow and arrows said.
"I'm Jesse." said the girl with the long sword said.
"I'm Debbie." said the girl with the boomerang.
"I'm Jake." said the boy with the spear.
"I'm Kyle." said the boy with the whip.
"I'm David." said the boy with the two katana.
"I'm Brian." said the boy with the dagger.
"And these two are Snowball and Shadow." said Maggie pointing at the two wolves.
Things just got interesting… Nuju thought to himself.
To be continued…
