Chapter 5 The curse

Tock walked to the kitchen and opened the frig to find something to eat.

"I haven't had a vision in awhile." He said to himself. "Maybe it's gone whatever it was." Suddenly Tock had a strong pain in his Gut. The pain was so unbearable he started to lose focus and tried to walk to the couch but fail and fell on the ground. Zu-ly heard the loud thud and ran out of her room.

"Tock is that you." She asked as she walked into the kitchen she then saw Tock on the ground in a lot of pain. Zu-ly didn't know what to do she went into a panic and tried to lift Tock to the sofa but he was too heavy. So she ran a small towel under cold water and wiped the sweat from Tock's head. While this was happening Tock was having a vision.

Tock felt as though he was floating he couldn't feel where he was he was nowhere. He was in nothing that was simply what it was, nothing. He then started to hear a faint cackling, a cackling that he heard before.

"Dusk." Tock said.

"Nice to see you again Tock." The voice rasped. Tock tried to focus on his feet to see him but since there was no ground he had no such luck.

"What do you want?" Tock growled.

"Oh just because I'm here doesn't mean I want anything." The voice responded airy. "I simply came to warn you."

"What do you mean?" Tock asked not liking were this was going.

"You have the Curse of the Beast." Dusk said. "You see when I stabbed you with my claw I gave you the curse. You will slowly become your own little beast." Dusk cackled at his sick joke. "The only way to get rid of the creature is to go to the Beast Clan. It is an organization of well trained and Cursed assassins. Ask to speak with the master he will help you." Dusk again cackled.

"And what if I don't want to?" Tock Growled.

"Well then you will slowly become the beast and when you do you will kill everyone you care about and we both know you don't want that." Dusk breathed. It was true the Idea of him killing his family, his friends, and Zu-ly. It made him shiver.

"How do I find the clan?" Tock asked.

"Oh you don't have to find the Clan the Clan will find you." Dusk said and Cackled one last time before tock could feel his back lying on the ground.

Zu-ly noticed that Tock finally became still. Her eyes were filled with worry when Tock came too.

"Are you ok." Tock got up.

"Yea I'm fine." Tock said harshly as he took off his t-shirt that was drenched with sweat and he put a fresh one on.

"It's just you looked like you were in a lot of…"

"Dame it Zu-ly I said I was fine!" Tock yelled. Zu-ly stepped back. Tears started to swell her eyes.

"I was just trying to help you." She yelled back tears now streaming down her cheeks.

"You don't have to I can take care of myself I don't need your help!" Tock shouted. "I don't need anyone's help but my own, so piss off!"

"Fine!" she shouted. "Go get yourself killed for all I care you jack ass." With that said she went to her room and slammed the door with a loud bang. Tock went outside and punch the ground making a small crater. Zu-ly jumped on her bed and sobbed on her pillow. Tock walked down the side walk and just kept walking. He felt bad that he yelled at Zu-ly so harshly but he just wanted to be left alone he had a lot on his mind. He tried to focus on what he was going to do about this demon inside of him. As soon as the sun came up tock went back to the house to apologize to Zu-ly. He walked in to find no one in the house not even Kipo or Hornet.

"There probably at the beach." Tock said to himself. Suddenly the phone rang. Tock picked it up.

"Hello?" He asked

"If you want your friend to live come to the ware house on Twelfth Street." Said a voice.

"Who is this who are you." Tock yelled but the line went dead.

"Zu-ly I'm sorry." He said into the phone.

He then ran out of the house and flagged a cab.
