5 days have passed since Coldstone and Amy left, and also, I have been getting the feeling that someone has been stalking me because whenever I'm walking through the streets, I swear that I saw a shadow. And also, when I'm gliding by myself, I too see the shadow of someone, but who can it be?
Anyway, I was with Lexington, Broadway, and Elisa, and it was raining really hard while we we each had a headphone to talk to each other. "Sorry, boys. We owe you big time.", Elisa said, hearing a chuckle,"Yeah, Elisa's right.", I said with a chuckle.
"It's OK. If some voice over the phone told me that the power plant was gonna melt down, I wouldn't take any chances either.", Lexington said with a shrug and grin. "Thanks, guys.", Elisa said, sounding grateful.
"You're real troopers.", I said with a laugh of appreciation. And then, I heard Lexington and Broadway let a shout of surprise. "Lex! Broadway!", Elisa shouted in worry and shock.
"Are you two alright? What's going on over there?", I called out in concern. "Something hit us!", Lexington called back before I heard a shout of surprise.
"It's got me!", Lexington shouted in shock. I tried to see what was going on, and I saw the silhouette of a Gargoyle, looking like Goliath! "Goliath?", I whispered in shock.
No, Sally, that's not Goliath. Draven told me in a tone of fear and shock. "Lex, what's going on up there? Lex!", Elisa shouted in frustration and worry. I then saw Broadway and Lexington fall to the ground, and Elisa stopped her car.
"Guys!", I shouted in worry as I was gliding towards them when I felt someone grab me. "Hey, let go!", I shouted, trying to break free.
"Sally, what's wrong!?", Elisa shouted. "Someone or something is grabbing me!", I shouted as I tried to break free from the Gargoyle's grasp, and I could feel him try to glide away with me in his arms.
"Alright, that's it.", I snarled angrily as I dug my claws into the Gargoyle's skin as hard as I could, and I could hear him let out a roar of pain. I was able to break free, but I fell to the ground a bit hard. "Sally!", my friends shouted in worry as they ran over to see if I was alright.
"Whoa, that was close.", Broadway said with a shake of his head as he helped me get back up. "You ok, Sally? What happened?", Lexington asked in curiosity with a hint of worry.
"I'm not sure. Some Gargoyle was trying to..", I was saying before we turned around to see the silhouette of the Gargoyle with the lightning making him look scary a bit, and then he disappeared. "Goliath?", Elisa said before we heard a sinister laugh, and it made my hairs stand on end as that Gargoyle sounds like Goliath as well.
"What now?", Lexington asked quietly as he and the others took in what they saw. "Let's head back to the clock tower.", I said softly, feeling a bit spooked out as now that I know why I was getting the feeling that someone was stalking me.
We all then went back to the clock tower, and told everyone about what happened. "When the thunder passed, Goliath was gone.", Elisa said in confusion and shock.
"You should've heard his laugh. Make my hair stand on end. If I had any.", Lexington said softly as he shook his head lightly. "He even tried to glide away with Sally.", Broadway said with indignation.
"I'm glad he didn't.", Morgan said softly, hugging me. "Hmm. That doesn't sound like the Goliath I know.", Hudson said, his eyes narrowed in suspicion.
"Tell me about it.", Elisa said with a conflicted look. "No. Let's have Goliath tell us about it! Where is he?", Broadway said with a growl.
"Guys, please stop! That Gargoyle we saw, it's not Goliath! Draven told me.", I said, giving them a defensive look. "Are you sure? Because he sure looked, and sounded like Goliath.", Lexington said, looking bewildered.
"I'm sure of it! Goliath wouldn't do anything like that, but where is he, Hudson?", I replied very sure with a hint of concern. "He and Brooklyn are out on patrol. At least, that's where he said they'd be.", Hudson said with a thoughtful, worried look.
"And dawn is approaching, and they will turn back to their human forms.", Elisa said with a sigh. "We will have to wait for them to return as we have to work in the bakery.", I said with a nod. Then dawn came, and the Gargoyles transformed into their humans forms, and so did I.
But my mind was still on that Gargoyle. Who was he? Why did he try to kidnap me? We were working in the bakery when Brooklyn came back, but he told us that Goliath was in the streets, and I presumed he was probably doing his job as a freelance parkour artist.
"We are going to have to wait until he comes back to the clock tower.", I said sternly. Later on,we were all at the clock tower waiting for Goliath, and sure enough, he came back to the tower. We all explained to him about last night.
"I don't know what you're talking about. You know I am not in the habit of playing childish pranks or laughing maniacally in the dark." Goliath said, looking bewildered and confused. "Do you even know how to laugh maniacally?", Hudson asked in confusion.
"But, Goliath, we heard you. We saw you!", Elisa said, waving a hand in the air. "You couldn't have. He was with me all night, and we never left midtown.", Brooklyn explained with a snort.
"I don't get it. If Goliath was in midtown, who was messing with us last night?", Broadway said with a confused growl. "That's what I keep trying to tell you guys, it wasn't Goliath who we saw last night, and he wasn't the one who tried to grab me.", I said, frustrated with the stubbornness of the boys.
"What?!", Goliath snarled in shock. "Whoever we saw last night, he tried to kidnap Sally, but she was able to get away.", Elisa said with a sigh of relief and worry.
"He would have hurt you!", Goliath growled in slight anger and worry. Goliath hugged me closer to him. "I'm okay now, but I need to tell you something.", I said, taking upon a look of pensive thought.
"What is it?", Goliath asked in worry as he glanced at me softly. "The last few days, I kept getting the feeling that someone was stalking me, and I think the Gargoyle we saw last night is the same one who has been stalking me.", I said with a growl.
"How dare he? That's harassment!", Goliath growled lowly. I knew he was reading some law books these days, and that must be where he knew what I meant. "Well, what do we do now?", Morgan asked with a shrug.
"We try to find out who that Gargoyle is.", Goliath said with a nod. "You're right.", I said with a grin. I, Elisa, Lexington, and Broadway led Goliath to where we saw the Gargoyle last night.
"Here?", Goliath asked with a intrigued/suspicious look. "This is where the gargoyle stood when the lightning bolt struck.", Elisa said, pointing to the spot where the Gargoyle stood.
"And there is where Sally fell after escaping the Gargoyle who tried to kidnap her.", Broadway said lightly, pointing to another spot which is where I fell. "I should have been with you last night, Sally. Who knows what could have happen if that Gargoyle had taken you?!", Goliath snarled lowly with dismay.
"All that matters is that I'm ok now.", I said, calming him down with my hand on his chest. "What's this?", Broadway asked in confusion as he was holding some sort of bracelet in his hand.
"Looks like the kind of tracking device that Gen-U-Tech uses.", Elisa said with a narrowed angry look. "Gen-U-Tech Genetic engineering.", I snarled angrily, and it was Goliath's turn to calm me down with a kiss on my temple.
"The creature we saw might've been one of theirs.", Lexington said, putting a finger upon his chin, taking upon a look of thought. "Lexington,you and Broadway along with Elisa pay them a visit. See what you can find out.", Goliath said with a light growl.
"We're on the case.", Broadway said with a nod. He picked up Elisa, and then they were off. "If Gen-U-Tech's involved, then it wouldn't surprise me that Sevarius is too.", I said, musing out loud with a growl.
"No need to remind you who he works for.", I said with a look at Goliath, and he growled, nodding. "Let's see if we can find this creature.", Goliath said stoically. He then grabbed my hand, and started leading me, knowing that the Gargoyle tried to kidnap me, but Goliath would protect me no matter what.
We searched the entire area, but we couldn't find the Gargoyle, and we then landed on the ground. "How are we going to find that Gargoyle?", I said with a frustrated growl.
"What about that?", Goliath asked in curiosity as he pointed to something in the distance, and I turned slightly to see what he's seeing. I raised an eyebrow. "The oil rig? Looks abandoned.", I said with surprise.
"Well, someone seems to have found a new use for it.", Goliath said with a growl as we then saw Xanatos on a speedboat. "Xanatos.", I said with a heavy sigh.
"Let's follow him, but stay close Sally.", Goliath said warily, and I nodded. We then were gliding to the oil rig as I stayed close to Goliath the whole time, and I then saw Xanatos holding Sevarius by the throat.
"What would put Xanatos and Sevarius at each other's throats?", I asked in surprise. "Let's not interrupt them just yet. I want to look inside.", Goliath said lightly with a bit of curiosity.
We then landed, and then we heard some strange noises. "You hear that?", I ask lowly. He nodded slowly. "The oil tank.", Goliath said quietly. He went over, and he then opened it.
"Stay close to me, Sally.", Goliath said even more warily. We then went inside, and I saw the most shocking thing ever. There stood a gargoyle who looks exactly like Goliath, only he was different in color! Could he be the one who tried to grab me last night?
Draven, is that the Gargoyle who tried to kidnap me, and also the one who has been stalking me? I asked quickly. Yes, he is. Be careful of him. Draven warned me hastily and sternly.
"Goliath. It's you at last. I am Thailog.", Thailog said, grinning widely as he came closer. "Whoa.", I said as Goliath then hugged me closer to him.
"What kind of abomination are you?", Goliath asked with a wary growl. "The same kind as you. It was your blood that spawned me.", Thailog said with a sly smile.
"My blood?", Goliath asked with a surprised snarl. "Oh, my gosh. He's a clone. They grew him from a piece of you, like a cutting from a plant.", I said, gasping in shock and horror.
"A piece of me? This thing is me! First, Xanatos steals my home, and now, he pieces out my soul!", Goliath said with a angry snarl. "Were you the one who tried to kidnap me last night?", I asked with a suspicious growl.
"Yes, I were, my dear.", Thailog grinned wickedly. "So you were the one who tried to kidnap my mate." Goliath said with a furious snarl.
"Mate? If i recall, she still isn't claimed yet.", Thailog said with a malicious grin. "Why does that matter to you?", I asked, growling lowly in annoyance.
"Easy, my dear. I wanted you to be my mate.", Thailog chuckled with a purr which disgusted me out. I widened my eyes at that. Thailog wanted me to be his mate! No way in hell is that ever going to happen!
"Like I'll ever be your mate.", I snarled angrily. "Sally is with me.", Goliath said, growling lowly.
"We will see about that.", Thailog snarled as he broke free. He lunged at Goliath as Goliath shoved me out of the way. I saw Thailog tackle Goliath, and he placed some sort of mask on him, and Goliath was knocked out.
"And just for the record, I'm more of a gargoyle than he'll ever be.", Thailog laughed maniacally. "What did you do to him?", I shouted in anger, snarling at him.
"I just put him to sleep, my dear.", Thailog said with a wicked smile. My hands glowed a blue aura, and I then shot an energy beam at Thailog, but he dodged. I tried to see if I can find him, but I couldn't.
Then I felt him grab me from behind. "Hey, let me go, you bastard!", I shouted in fury, roaring. "Oh, I don't think so, my dear.", Thailog chuckled lowly. Thailog then used the same gas that he used on Goliath, and I blacked out in his arms.
