Episode 4- Can You Read My Mind?

"You stay here and rest up. You never know when a mamodo will come around." Jack said to Shade as he left for school. "Okay but come home right away after school." replied Shade Shade decided to take a walk around town to kill some time. He was admiring all the strange things the human world had to offer. 'I've really got to get Jack to come down here with me to buy me this stuff. It's all so cool.' Shade thought to himself. Jack had given him some money to buy lunch in case he went anywhere so he decided to get some. While walking, eating his taco, Shade looked up and saw a boy covered in mud. "Hey kid are you okay?" asked Shade concerned. "I am but you won't be." replied the kid meacingly. "Mudoruk." said a man stepping out from behind a tree. The mud boy threw his hands up and a pillar of mud and rocks rose from the ground and headed quickly for Shade. Shade tried to move out of the way but he was too late. Shade was sent flying into a tree. " HAHAHAHAHA! Good job Mudboll (Mud - bowl).Now hand over your book weakling or else." commanded the mysterious man. "I don't see his partner anywhere, Luther. Let's just kill 'em!" said Mudboll cruelly. "You got it. Makurga." said Luther. Mudboll raised both of his mud covered hands and they enlarged and shot forward knocking Shade into a building. 'I cant take much more of theis.' thought Shade. Struggling to get up Shade said "You'll never beat me!" in pure defiance. " Oh really? Well i think something else. Lets finish him Mudboll. MADORUKA!" Mudboll's hands flew at Shade again along with the pillar of mud and rocks. ' Now i'm dead.' thought Shade bracing himself for his death. But suddenly "DAROS!" screamed a mysterious stranger. Shade opened his eyes to see a kid in a navy cloak standing in front of him generating a shield. "You okay?" asked the boy in the cloak. "Yea thanks to you." replied Shade "You hear that Ryan we got here just in time." said cloak boy. " Now that's not very nice attacking a partnerless mamodo. but we'll fix that.Won't we Serin? Kaen Zeres!" said Ryan. Serin's eyes began to glow silver as he raised his hands. Mudboll was thrown into the air by some unknown force. 'Must be the spell.' thought Shade watching Serin work. "Luther let's retreat before the master gets really mad." screamed Mudboll. And before they could do anything Mudboll and Luther were gone. Meanwhile, back at home Jack just returning from school was frantically looking for Shade. "SHADE! SHADE! WHERE ARE YOU? Oh hell!" shouted Jack "I know what will get him back here. DARKEPORT!" Shade and two mysterious people appear in Jack's living room. "Shade where were you and who are these people?" asked Jack worriedly. "No worries Jack, this is Serin and Ryan. They saved me." said Shade recounting his day. "So you really did save him?" asked Jack quizzically. "Yup. we saw him in trouble and decided to help." replied Serin. "Well, I dont know how to thank you." said Jack. "You can thank us by becoming friends with us." Said Ryan "Of course." said Jack. " Well, we gotta get home. See ya later Jack and Shade." said Ryan. "Takora." said Ryan and him and Serin disappeared.

Later that day, Shade wanted to go for another walk around town. This time Jack came with him bringing the spellbook. They were near the park when they heard what sounded like spells being cast. They ran to check it out. " Flamboll, Flaruk." said a mysterious voice. Flamboll raised his arms and a pillar of fire shoots from the ground heading toward Serin. "Mudoruk." said Luther. The farmiliar pillar of rock and mud headed toward Serin too. Shade's book started to glow as they looked on in horror. "A new spell! But first get down there. Darkeport." said Jack. "Now the third spell! DAKRASHIELD!" Serin and Shade were encased in an orb of shadows protecting them from the two spells. "Thanks Shade now you saved me." said Serin "Anytime" replied Shade. When they looked up the two mamodos and their partners were gone. "They escaped again Shade." said Jack. "Well at least everyone's safe now" replied Shade. "Lets go home." sighed Serin exhaustedly. "Hey Serin since you're a telekenetic mamodo you cant read my mind right?" asked Shade. Serin just laughed.
