"Well glad to see we're picking up the pace a bit but I still feel short of reviews and faves. Please fix that for me!"
Chapter 5 The Truth
The next day Whitney decided to take a walk to the Canyon area Eric first found her.
It wasn't much longer until the un-wanted wedding would take place.
Whitney just knew this was wrong but her guilting father was more than enough for her to reconsider.
The thought alone was painful. It would be horrible to be married to someone like Conner. Someone who wouldn't do his share in marriage. Someone who would only cause a burden to her life. Someone who would leave his own wife for just about anything. Someone who wouldn't love her the way a true husband should. Someone who wouldn't take her in richness or in poor, in sickness or in health for eternity or even as much as 5 minutes.
That wasn't how marriage was suppose to be. That wasn't how couples should be like.
This wasn't love, it was slavery.
She had never done anything to deserve such torture.
Whitney tried not to think about it but such a thought had a way of grasping the mind.
She walked towards a mountain in the canyon.
This was the specific place she was found.
While doing so, Whitney tried to think about something else.
Max came into her mind next.
Even though she never met him until a few days ago he still seemed so familiar to her.
Somehow she felt like she had a crush on him.
It seemed kind of silly to her at first but then it wasn't all that weird.
He did save her life, he did make her feel better.
He certainly cared for her more than Eric or Conner did.
Her mind also traced to those visions.
Why was it that she had visions of Black King and Gomora attacking her?
She even had that same dream asleep at night.
It had been occurring so often that she could repeat it so well that she could make a perfect reenactment.
It was almost like it was trying to tell her something.
Thoughts like those kept flooding her mind as she continued walked past the mountain.
Suddenly something by it caught Whitney's eye.
It was a sparkle not too far down the mountain side.
She ran over to the spot and saw some metal object underneath the dirt.
Curious to what it was, Whitney dug around it until finally she managed to pull it out.
It was a necklace.
It had silver and red colored patterns and a blue diamond as the main décor.
Whitney was shocked. If she remembered the book picture right this was the necklace of Ultrawoman.
The very Ultra that Aunt Adrian and Uncle Tom had been trying to find for years.
What happened next really stunned her.
The diamond on the necklace had started glowing.
Whitney knew that the necklace wouldn't glow unless it was touched by Ultrawoman.
This could only mean one thing.
Whitney was Ultrawoman.
At first she couldn't believe it but then it all made sense.
That's why she had those visions. They were flashbacks of her past. That's why she didn't know her true self. It was hidden from her up until now. That's why Max seemed so familiar to her. He was her lover.
More memories started coming back to her.
Memories of her and Max, Memories of fighting with many monsters, memories of the village, memories of her reincarnation.
She got up and placed the necklace into her pocket.
She couldn't remember everything just yet including how to use the necklace to transform.
With enough luck the rest would come to her soon.
A roar was then heard above her.
Whitney looked up to see a dinosaur-like monster with grey and bluish skin and a orange face with a large horn on its head.
The horn itself look very similar to a helmet with a spike, and the body seemed to be like armor plating like a Greek monster of some such.
Whitney remembered that this monster was named Golza.
A monster that Ultraman Tiga had quite a history with.
She turned around to run only to see another monster was blocking her way.
This one was quadruped, it had large red lips, two small horns on its head and one big one on its nose, and it was green, yellow, and dark brown in color.
This one was named Neronga.
This wasn't the deadliest monster but it sure wasn't anything to be messing with.
Whitney ran around the mountain that was not blocked by either monster.
She got to the other side and froze in fear seeing another monster.
But then she realized that it was in the wrong pose.
She thought it was sleeping until she saw the giant wounds on the side of it's chest and on it's back.
The monster was black and white in color.
It had bug like wings and a beaked mouth like a bird only it was the same color as the rest of the face.
It had hooks for hands and a lizard like body.
This monster was named Dorako.
It looked like something else already killed it.
She then turned around relived about the creature being dead only to jump right back into fear when she saw that their was suddenly another new face behind her.
It was yet another monster and this time living.
It was another dinosaur like creature, it was very tall and muscular, it had large arms, a long neck, a relatively small head but big teeth, and it was a tan yellowish in color with blue highlights.
Whitney knew that this was Red King.
One of the most dangerous of all the monsters the Ultras had encountered.
Upon sighting Whitney, Red King prepared to attack.
Normally his kind wasn't built on as much brains as brawn but he himself was smarter than they usually were.
He knew that if she managed to get out of here alive she would tell others.
If he killed her now it would save him so much trouble later.
Whitney using common sense turned around and ran for her life.
Red King chased after her with great determination.
He kicked the corpse of Dorako who he recently killed out of his was and followed the girl away from the island.
That was when Neronga and Golza appeared.
Golza wanting to fight the new monster shot his energy ray from his forehead.
Red King was knocked down by the attack.
The monster turned around furious to see who shot the ray.
He saw Golza and Neronga ready for battle.
Whitney was now so far away that chasing after her now was pointless.
He would be spotted by more people.
The Skull monster decided to let her go as she had no proof anyhow.
Besides Neronga and Golza were demanding him to fight.
Red King would ensure that they regretted that move.
As Neronga charged at the Skull monster, he grabbed him by the horns and threw him over his back before he had the chance to shock him.
Whitney meanwhile looked back to see the monsters fighting.
She couldn't help but watch the battle.
Golza charged Red King next only to be grabbed by his horn in a similar way Neronga was.
Red King hauled Golza over his shoulder and slammed him into the ground.
Neronga fired its energy ray. He had been feasting well lately and his energy levels were high.
Even so it seemed that lighting didn't hurt Red King much.
The skull monster replied to the beast by lifting up a large rock and throwing it at his foe.
Neronga was knocked over easily by the impacting projectile.
Golza fired his forehead ray once again at Red King.
The weapon only angered the Skull monster who turned towards the attacker.
Red King replied to Golza's attack by firing a barrage of rocks from his mouth.
They exploded into Golza who fell down to the ground yet again.
Following that Red King hoisted Golza up over his shoulder.
He then threw the opossing monster so hard that it sent him flying into a great distance away.
Red King felt something bite his side but saw nothing there.
Again and again he felt attacks but couldn't see anything.
Red King however got wise to the game.
He turned to the latest direction to where he got attack and just when another attack was about to hit him from behind, Red King turned around suddenly and attacked the very opposite direction to which he was facing.
The direction to where the attack was going to be.
Neronga was exposed from his invisibility and was trying to recover from the assault.
Neronga's horns rotated forward again and he fired his energy beam at full power.
It seemed to do a bit of damage this time but Red King soon countered with his rock barrage attack.
Soon the electric monster was knocked to the ground.
Red King grabbed Neronga by the tail and lifted up into the air and crashing back down into the ground as if he were a pickaxe.
The Skull monster repeated the process again a few time before throwing Neronga into the mountain.
The electric monster tried to turn invisible but Red King fired his rock barrage again revealing the monster faster than it had dissapeared.
Neronga turned towards the taller monster and charged at him but as soon as he got close enought, Red King kicked him on his left side knocking him on his right.
The Skull monster grabbed the energy monster by the horns on the top of his head and ripped them off.
Neronga screeched in pain.
Red King then brought his head down and bit Neronga's neck ripping it open.
Neronga died of the wound.
Soon enough Golza appeared again and was very furious.
He fired his forehead ray like he never used it before.
Red King was knocked down by the blows.
He lied motionless.
Golza walked closer planning on finishing him off.
Then Red King sprang back to like and then went wild.
He gave Golza a powerful punch to the head with his right fist.
He then gave another one from his left.
Red king punched Golza in the stomach making the foe bend over.
He grabbed him by the neck and hurled him into the mountain.
Red King ran over towards Golza and slammed his tail into the fallen monster.
Golza fired his forehead ray again in Red King's head.
This only angered the skull monster.
Golza got up and struck Red King with his tail.
Red King answered by bashing his fist on Golza's head like a pile driver.
The two monster kept at it for a while.
Soon however Red King managed to rip off Golza's crest disabling his heat ray.
Red King knocked Golza into the ground and fired his barrage of rocks until Golza finally lied dead.
Whitney stared in shock as Red King gave a triumphant roar.
This one monster managed to beat 2 other monsters in unison?
Whitney decided to run away before Red King could see she hadn't gone far.
She reported the monsters to the authorities but although they found the corpses of Neronga, Dorako, and Golza, they didn't find Red King.
