Week of November 13, 2011 - Secret Diary #3
It has been nearly a week since Blaze left, and Elisa was still sad. I just couldn't believe Blaze would do something like this, and I hope he stays true to his promise. Coldstone and Amy have been staying with us for awhile, though they said would spent a couple more days with us before leaving.
Anyway, I was back in my apartment even though I can change back into a human, I sometimes sleep in my Gargoyle form. I was dreaming, and I found myself in a strange cave.
"What is this place?", I said to myself in confusion. I walked forward, and I saw something in front of me. They looked like eggs, Gargoyle eggs to be exact. "What are these eggs doing here?", I asked in curiosity, and then I heard something behind me, and I saw Goliath...with a young Blaze in his arms! I must be seeing another memory from his past.
"Uncle Goliath, why are we here?", Blaze asked quietly in pensive confusion. "You'll see, Little Shadow.", Goliath said, smiling warmly.
"Uncle Goliath, which one is my little sister?", Blaze asked curiously. "That one, Little Shadow.", Goliath said, pointing to a pale cream egg, and letting down Blaze to touch the egg rather gently which is surprising to me, concerning his age.
"I can't wait to meet you, little sis.", Blaze purred warmly as he nuzzled the egg with his face, looking happy. "Little Shadow, I brought you here because you're not only going to have a little sister.", Goliath said with a chuckle after Goliath picked him up again once Blaze had his little nuzzle-fest with his little sister's egg.
"I'm not?", Blaze asked in bewilderment with confused eyes. "What does he mean?", I asked in confusion.
"You're also going to have a little brother.", Goliath said with a soft grin. "Yay!", Blaze cheered quietly as he hugged Goliath.
"But how? Uncle Goliath, my parents only had one egg, not two.", Blaze said, tilting his head in confusion as Goliath carried him to another spot which contained a darker cream egg. "Your parents found this egg in a abandoned cave, so they brought it back.", Goliath said with a glance at the egg.
"I'm so happy.", Blaze said, grinning happily. "You're going to be even more happy since this egg is going to hatch in a few days.", Goliath said with a smile.
"I'm going to meet my little brother soon.", Blaze said, jiggling in happiness as Goliath held him, glancing at his adopted brother's egg. "You are going to be a wonderful brother, Little Shadow.", Goliath complimented warmly.
"I love you, Uncle Goliath. My life wouldn't be the same without you.", Blaze said as he nuzzled against Goliath's chest, purring happily. "I feel the same as well, my godson.", Goliath rumbled lightly.
Goliath smiled as he held Blaze close to him as they both turned to stone, and then I woke up, blinking in amazement. "Well,I had another memory from Goliath's past to show me how much he cares for his godson.", I said to myself with a grin.
I then ate some breakfast before I went to work at the bakery, and then afterwards, I went to the clock tower. When I got there, only Broadway, Brooklyn, Lexington, Coldstone, Amy, and Morgan were there.
"Hey, guys, where's everyone?", I asked in pensive bewilderment. "We were going to ask you the same thing, Sally.", Broadway said with a shrug.
"We haven't seen the others since they left.", Amy said with a shake of her head. "Guys, guys, check this out.", Brooklyn said as he held up the tv remote, and we all saw on the tv a reporter talking about the Pack.
"So the Pack is back.", Brooklyn said with a growl. "Goliath and the others must have gone after them.", I said, narrowing my eyes lightly.
"Let's go.", Lexington said with a snarl. "This is a paid commercial message.", We heard a voice from the TV.
"Wait, that voice.", Broadway said in surprise, widening his eyes. "It's Fox!", I said as I turned around, and sure enough, there was Fox on the screen!
"Tired of walking down Lexington Avenue? Sick of taking that long bus ride up Broadway? Fed up with bumper-to-bumper all the way to Brooklyn?", Fox said calmly, looking at us.
"She's talking to us.", Brooklyn said with a pensive expression. "Don't pack it in, take the train.", Fox said calmly with a subtle nod.
"She wants us there where the tracks cross.", Coldstone said, raising an eyebrow in surprise. "I know that spot!", Lexington said with a gasp of realization.
"But it's gotta be a trap!", Morgan said, shaking her head in dismay. Then Draven appeared before us. "Draven, can we trust Fox?", I asked the spirit quickly.
"She is no longer part of the Pack. I sense that she is helping you stop the pack.", Draven said thoughtfully. "Draven's right.", Broadway said with a nod.
"Goliath and the others might be in danger.", Coldstone said with a nervous growl. "Coldstone's right. Do we have any choice?", I said with a snort.
"Morgan and Amy, you two stay here.", I ordered the girls, giving them a stern glance. "Be careful.", Morgan said as she hugged Brooklyn.
"We will.", Coldstone said as he kissed Amy, and then we were off. "We have to be careful. Who knows what the Pack is up to now?", I said with a low growl.
Everyone nods, and then we made it to a warehouse. We peeked inside to see the Pack, and inside some tubes, our friends are inside.
"Goliath.", I gasped in horror. "We have to get them out of there.", Brooklyn said with a snarl.
"But how? Look at the Pack! They somehow upgraded themselves.", Lexington said with a shocked expression. "I have an idea.", I said with a smirk. I told everyone of my plan, and then Coldstone threw something at Dingo.
"Hey, looking for us?", Brooklyn taunted with a growl as both he and Broadway had some of the Pack members follow them. "Lexington, now.", I nodded with a growl, and Lexington then turned off the power.
"What happened to the power?!", Hyena shouted in surprise. Dingo was searching for his helmet. "Looking for this?", Coldstone shouted in anger as he threw the helmet at the tubes, and soon, Goliath and the others were free.
"Oh, no, you don't!", Dingo said with a snarl,but Coldstone tackled him which took them outside, and I then used my powers to lead Hyena outside away from my friends. I was gliding on the air, and I saw Hyena stretching her body as she was on Lexington.
"Never liked thrill rides. They always end too soon.", Hyena cackled, getting ready to strike Lexington. "Uh-oh.", Hyena said with surprise as she saw something ahead.
"Tickets, please!", Broadway snarled, knocking her off of Lexington. Sally, listen to me. I have been able to read the souls of the Pack. Draven said.
What did you see? I asked anxiously. I'm afraid to say that they are too dangerous for both Gargoyles and Humans alike. Draven said sadly.
Then that means...I was saying as I widened my eyes. They have to die. Draven said with a repressed sigh.
I nodded as I saw Coldstone and Brooklyn fighting Jackal, and Hyena was still fighting Lexington and Broadway. Focus your power, Sally. Get them in the middle. Draven said clearly and solemnly.
I closed my eyes as I was glowing a blue aura, and then all the pack members were glowing. "What's going on!?", Dingo said in shock.
"I feel myself getting pulled by something!", Jackal said, growing scared. "I can't break free!", Wolf said with fear in his voice.
"Who is doing this!?", Hyena shouted in horror. I was able to get them all in the middle. "Sally, what are you doing?", Broadway shouted in shock as he and the others watched me.
"Sally!", Goliath shouted in horror and shock. "What is she doing?", Elisa asked in horrified confusion.
"She must be the one doing this to us.", Hyena snarled angrily. Now, Sally. Draven said directly. I then let out a battle cry as I unleashed the full powers of Draven.
I could see the pack screaming in pain as they were being torn apart, and also turning to dust as they were disintegrating. "What's going on!?", Jackal screamed in pain as he felt his cybernetics being torn apart.
"I feel myself being torn apart!", Dingo said, yelling in pain. "I feel pain everywhere!", Wolf said in terror.
"What is she doing to us!?", Hyena screamed in pain. I felt myself be surrounded by the fiery blue aura of Draven as I kept unleashing Draven's full power,
"What is she doing!?", Elisa asked in shock. "She is unleashing Draven's full power!", Hudson shouted in awe and amazement.
"This shows how strong he truly is.", Coldstone said in respect. "Which is why no one would dare challenge him.", Goliath said in surprise as my eyes glowed blue and then Draven spoke to the Pack.
"You are to die, once and for all.", Draven growled calmly yet stoically. "What!?", they all shouted in horror and fear.
"You are going to kill us!?", Hyena shouted in shock. "Yes, you are all dangerous.", Draven snarled lowly, and then they started screaming even more.
Their flesh was starting to peel away from their skin, and I could see their skeletons before they all were completely turned to dust. I then stopped as the fiery blue aura faded away, and I felt a little dizzy.
I felt myself fall, and then Goliath was able to catch me. "Sally, you okay?", Goliath asked in concern as he looked at me with worry.
"I'm alright.", I said with a tired smile. "What was that, Sally?", Brooklyn asked in curiosity.
"It was Draven. He used his full power to kill the Pack.", I said with a repressed sigh. "But why?", Broadway asked in confusion.
"Draven said they were too dangerous for both Gargoyles and Humans.", I said with a low growl. "Oh, I suppose that makes sense as they were part robotic. They tried to kill us for goodness sake.", Brooklyn commented thoughtfully.
"They wouldn't have to bother us anymore, or hurt anybody else either.", Broadway sighed heavily. "A warrior knows when to kill, and when not to kill.", Hudson nodded in understanding with a thoughtful sigh.
"They were monsters in a literal way.", Lexington said with a snarl. "At least Fox turned out to be good somewhat, warning us about this.", Elisa spoke softly with a conflicted look.
"All the better the world is without them to ruin things.", Coldstone mused out softly. "Yes, that's agreed. But that took a lot out of you, Sally. Are you sure you're alright?", Goliath held me warmly with a slightly concerned look.
"I'm okay. I'm just tired as this is what happens when I use Draven's full power.", I said with a weak smile. Goliath carried me all the way to the tower, and he then laid me gently on the couch.
"I'm going to be okay, Goliath. I just need to rest.", I said with a exhausted chuckle. "You need it. Sleep, my love.", Goliath said as he kissed me warmly, and I then closed my eyes.
I stared at Sally's sleeping body as she rests, and Coldstone then told us that he and Amy were leaving.
"We have to leave before sunrise.", Coldstone said with a nod and a patient smile. "Yeah, because you turn back into a human at dawn.", Amy said with a grin.
"Well, we hope to see you again soon.", I said, giving Coldstone the usual Gargoyle brotherly grip with a smile. "We will, and goodbye.", Coldstone said softly as he picked up Amy, and then the two left.
"Well, today was fun, wasn't it?", Elisa said as she gave a grin, looking at us, and we all gave looks at her, and she moaned, "Fair enough.", realizing that we fought quite extensively tonight, especially Sally.
