~(2 weeks later with Techno and Phil)~
Phil was putting on a cloak while Techno stared curiously.
Why are you covering your wings? Techno asked.
Because I don't want people to recognize me, we've been over this. Phil said making sure it completely covered his wings.
Techno sighed dramatically.
I don't get why we can't just raid the village. Techno said.
Because it's not right. Phil answered while picking up his bag.
I still don't like you going alone. Techno said toying with his braid.
Well, unfortunately, you won't cover up and if anyone sees you it'll go to hell in a handbasket so you get to stay here and keep watch. Phil said as he walked in the direction of the town.
I'll be back before the sun goes down. Phil said throwing him a quick smile.
Techno stayed frowning but kept his eyes sharp for anyone else.
~(In town with Phil)~
Phil walked quickly and with purpose. He smiled and gave his polite hellos like before everyone wanted him dead. The first place he stopped was the weapons shop which was mostly empty besides a Sheep hybrid with who Phil assumed was her son he couldn't really tell if he was hybrid or not because he was wearing a green hoodie. Phil patiently waited behind them when the boy turned and appeared to look at him but it was hard to tell since he was wearing a white mask with a black smiley face.
C'mon Dream. The woman said with a new diamond pickaxe.
The woods are crawling with hunters be careful. Dream said before walking out.
Phil stared curiously at the boys unwarranted warning.
I can help you if ya need? The man at the counter asked.
Yeah.. Phil answered glancing back one more time before getting the sword sharpener Techno wanted.
Phil continued to wander around and get supplies. He also got some cinnamon rolls for shroud as "spider food". And finally, he got Tommy a new bag. Phil smiled but then frowned when he noticed it was almost dark. He knew if he stayed till dark Techno would storm into the village and drag him back home, gently. Phil started walking back to where Techno and Ghost were hiding when he heard someone yell at him.
Hey, blondie! Some drunk man yelled stumbling out of a bar.
Phil just kept walking though it was obvious the man was yelling at him. Phil suddenly felt a violent tug on his bag. Phil snapped around and snatched the bag back while reaching for his sword.
Relaaaaaxx just wanna know if ya got the good stuff pal! Any booze on ya?. The drunkard said stumbling away.
Phil rolled his eyes.
You seem to be drunk enough. Phil said starting to walk away again.
Who do you think you are mister high and mighty?! The drunk guy angrily grabbed Phils bag again but this time Phil was ready and smashed his elbow down on the guys head making him collapse to the ground. What small number of people on the roads had gathered around Phil and the drunk guy when another guy approached looking very angry.
What the heck!? What did you do to him freak! The guy growled at Phil.
Phil had a bad feeling about all of this.
He attacked me. Phil answered trying to figure out an escape route.
He's bleeding! You probably broke his skull! The guy yelled the crowd was slowly backing up.
Phil wasn't scared for himself but the rest of the village if Techno caught this guy threatening him. The guy suddenly yanked Phil's cloak off revealing Phil's huge black wings. Everyone gasped as they recognized him quickly.
Isn't that the guy who raised those monsters?!
Get him outta here he's a bad omen!
If he's here won't the monsters be here too?!
Murmurs quickly traveled through the crowd.
The guy took a few steps back before screaming. HUNTERS! THERE'S A MONSTER GET THE HUNTERS!
Phil swore under his breath before taking off and soaring up in the sky he saw at least 15 hunters run out of houses and start chasing him.
Sorry Techno I'll be back later. Phil promised with a grimace as he flew into the dark woods opposite of Techno.
He thought he might have outrun the hunters when he felt something pierce through his wing. He held in a tight scream as he plummeted to the ground. He managed to make a decent crash landing. He laid down for a moment to catch his breath when he heard yelling and the pounding of hooves. He tried to get up but could barely move an inch. He managed to open his bag and pulled out the misty white potion with a shaky hand. It only took a second of hesitating before he opened the potion and guzzled it down. To his surprise he started to feel a bit better he also happened to notice that the hoof pounding and shouting had stopped and been replaced with screaming and swords clashing but Phil only noticed for about 2 seconds before he felt like throwing up.
~(Time rewind to Techno while Phil was talking to the drunk guy)~
Techno waited anxiously fiddling with his ax. It was almost night and Phil still wasn't back. Ghost neighed at him as if he was saying he was also worried.
I'm going to go check it out. Stay. Techno told the foul while getting on night rider.
Techno rode out as fast as he could towards the village where he saw a familiar winged figure flying in the opposite direction being chased by at least 20 hunters.
I knew it. Techno hissed under his breath furious with himself that he hadn't gone with Phil.
He rode fast and cut straight through the village. Everyone recognized him immediately and ran screaming in terror. Techno despite his worry grinned at their terror. Techno was keeping an eye on Phil and quickly passed through the village. He was almost caught up with the hunters when he saw Phil start plummeting to the ground.
NO! Techno shouted.
PHIL! SLAUGHTER THEM ALL! KILL THEM! THEY'LL BURN IF THEY TOUCH HIM! The voices screamed violently.
Techno jumped off night rider and started slaughtering all of the hunters. They tried to attack him but just ended up dieing like the rest. Techno finally killed the last one even though it took less than 5 minutes. Techno ran to where Phil was laying on the ground.
DAD! Techno ran to him and slid to his knees.
N-no getaway! Phil shoved Techno away with such force he slammed into a nearby tree it didn't hurt much just scared him a bit.
Dad? Techno asked nervously.
Phil stood up a bit. His blue eyes seemed to glow a bit before he violently jerked left as black feathers erupted from his left arm and quickly spread to his neck and face. His mind was fumbling together but he was fighting furiously to keep the memories of his boys. His other arm erupted in feathers now both of his arms were wings. The feathers were covering his face and no matter how desperately he fought he couldn't hold on to his memories his sons were fading away and he was powerless to stop it. He laid his head to the ground a he felt his body growing rapidly and in one foul swoop, he became a monster.
