Chapter 11: Confronting the Master
"So, you've been that Koko ou guy this whole time?" Toxsa asked Arthur.
"Yes indeed." Arthur answered, who sat on the slide. "Let me tell you something..."
Before the guardians were born, a Core Brick with certain power was created. The possessor of it was gained special powers for the holder only. Other Core Bricks were made for protectors, who were supposed to protect the holder of the powerful Brick. These protectors were the Tenkai Knights who, with their leader Bravenwolf, had to protect the Tenkai King to the death.
"So, you're a king?" Ceylan asked, adding an extra kick to Darkoid's face.
Gen briefly looked at Arthur. He swung a punch, but Arthur grabbed his arm and flipped Gen to his face.
"Yep." Gen said, rubbing his head.
"And, because of this, I can tell where someone with a Core Brick is. And Bravenwolf." Arthur pointed out.
He may as well have dropped a bomb.
"But... he was vaporized..." Beni said sadly.
"I can sense him." Arthur replied. "He's alive."
"Where?" Chooki asked.
Quarton
"So, that's where they're keeping him?" Dromus asked.
"Yes." Koko ou answered.
It was a big tent in the middle of nowhere. No guards, no nothing.
"Follow me." Koko ou whispered.
The six crawled across the ground, in case of any guards.
The tent was empty, just a Quartonian with his back turned to the group and Bravenwolf, facedown.
"Bravenwolf!" Venetta shouted.
She ran at Bravenwolf, but the stranger knocked her back.
He was grey and black, with details like ancient symbols. His body was balanced between thick and thin, making him armored and fast. His weapon was like a giant halberd with a pickaxe blade on the other side. His shield was like a dragon's face. His wings were bat wings. His face was a horrid dragon's, like someone punched him a thousand times.
"Hello, my friends." he said in a disorted voice. "I am Satvanrot, the Million Slayer."
Bravenwolf tried to get up, but he only fell on his face. He managed, "Ru...un..."
"Not while one last Knight lasts!" Dromus shouted.
Dromus tried to hit Satvanrot, but he only swatted him aside.
"Oh crud." Valorn managed.
Sorry if this chapter was short. I'm working on a Hero Factory story, Two Sides of a Hero. Heh, heh.
