Dark Skeleton
- Nova POV -
"Let me get out of here!" I yelled while hitting the wall. I was trapped in an invisible box; it was all dark I can't even see my hands. "Please! I don't want to be here!"
"You…"
"What?" I ask to the nothing.
"The monkey…"
"Please!"
"The fury…"
"Stop!" I said closing my eyes.
"The power…"
"Please Stop!" I yelled falling on my knees.
I couldn't even see if my eyes where closed or opened. At the center of the wall that was in front of me, the same giant skeleton appears. I feel how the box broke, and I fell on his hand.
I couldn't say anything; I was too scared to do something.
"Please don't be afraid…"
I start to shiver.
"I'll make you a proposal "
"Huh?"
"I want something inside of you… something that will make me really happy to have"
I cover my chest, "What do you want?"
The giant skeleton points with his finger my head. "Primate Power…"
"I don't know what you're talking about" I said but the skeleton continue talking like if I have understood.
"Give me your talent, and I'll give you a life without pain and suffer, you will be free…" the skeleton said chuckling.
"I don't know, what if I don't want"
"I'm afraid you don't have any choice" The skeleton changing his other hand into a large knife and put in the middle of my eyes.
I look at the knife only a few inches from me with my scared face; I was in way to shout a great "Ok" when I open my eyes. I was again in the river, I look down the tree; Offay was on the ground over a black skeleton that looks like the giant, but a lot smaller.
"Nova! Run!" Offay yelled while rolling in the ground over the monster.
"Master…"
"Please Nova I don't know if I can handle it" Offay shout while standing up.
The monster opens his helm and show a large tentacle that go directly to my head. Offay took the tentacle before it touches me.
"Nova, Now!"
I though for a moment, I jump from tree and run into the jungle.
"I can't leave him…" I though while running, I stopped. I run back to the lake, the skeleton attack Offay with his hand turned into a large knife, my hands became a lot larger instinctively and I attack.
"Ahhh!" I yelled pounding the monster in the head, it crash into the ground exploding in dust. I looked my hands; they start to be pretty heavy until I could carry them, my tired arms make me put the fists in the ground.
"Wha… What's happening master!?
"Relax Nova, those are you're battle weapons, you will train with them now"
"But… they are too heavy" I said dragging them. Offay hit my in the head with his staff.
"No, they aren't enough heavy"
I sigh.
"Relax and they will return to the normal"
I tried, in a few second my hand became normal.
"What was that thing?"
"That thing was a servant of the Skeleton King"
"Who is the Skeleton King?"
"There's only one word to describe him, "Evil""
I start to feel a cold wind coming from behind.
"Is that giant skeleton I see in my dream?"
"It wasn't a dream"
"Huh?" I ask with fear.
"That monster teleport your soul while you was asleep, you where talking with the same Skeleton King"
"It told me, that he wanted my Primate Power" I ask, Offay walk next to me.
"You're not just a monkey, you're special, the Primate Power run in your veins, some of this special monkeys develop they're primate power more than others"
There was a silence.
"You knew that my creator was going to send monkeys, don't you?"
Offay just nodded.
"Why Skeleton King want my Primate Power?"
"He wanted to correct his mistake"
"What?"
"Nothing... Nothing, you will know someday, but today isn't the day" Offay said putting his hand on the back of my head and start walking with me into the jungle.
