Chapter Thirteen
Part II
Kai's Point of View:
"Kai, stop hiding behind the freaking rock and help us!" Jay yells. I take a deep breath and peek from behind the boulder to try and find an opening spot as to where I can get to my screaming teammates. The time came and I sprinted across the gravel road, dodging strikes of lightning coming from Jay and surges of ice shooting from Zane.
"Kai, use your fire!" Lloyd shouts. I soon responded with a blaze a flames shooting out from the palms of my hands and driving directly into the core of the unknown enemy. A roaring shriek came pouring out of its soul.
"If this is the way you will try and harm us, then what STRONG heroes could you possibly be?" it shouts. "We came here to get what you took from us, yet you fight you as if you haven't fought before. All you do is use your powers, so why don't we make this easy and take you instead?'
Then out of nowhere, Lloyd snapped. He was exploded in rage of power from one side of the "battle ground" to the other in a ball of golden wisps and whirls. "Take us? I'd like to see you try!" he ensures piercingly. And with that, he swells his golden power into a larger sized ball and aims it towards the core of our attackers, but an unexpected voice filters through the commotion and a familiar swift whiplash of hair is briefly seen in front of the lead enemy.
"It can't be…"I mutter under my breath. I then quickly come back to my senses and remember that Lloyd was still using his golden dragon power. "LLOYD STOP! DON'T DO IT!"
He couldn't even hear my frantic cries attention; I had to do something to get him to stop. My mind takes over every bone in my body, and it all goes by in a flash. Clacks can be heard from my weapon slicing through the air. My messy brown spikes are flipped around and matted to the front of my forehead; veins now showing through my skin. It was the only option I had; the only thing that made it feel like everything around me was going in a slow orbit.
I was inches away from going in until an S-shaped golden weapon pinned onto my gi and stuck me on the dirt ground; preventing me from being able to move. Luckily, I was able to force my hand towards Lloyd and grip onto him causing him to stop his powers and come tumbling down with me.
"Mph! Kai?! Why would you—
"Watch out!" Nya warned. We both turned to face a pair of dark brown eyes staring into ours along with a raised silver dagger; ready to strike.
I can already realize that the hand holding the knife has frozen in mid-air and is giving us a wide eyed expression of shock. Her eyes slowly maze down to the spear that was now lodged through her stomach. Behind her is none other than Amari herself.
Amari's Point of View:
I pull my spear out of its back and watch it fall face down; pushing up a thick dust cloud from hitting the ground so hard. All my eyes could focus on were the terrified frozen faces of Jay and Zane; not to mention the dead eyed expressions of Kai and Lloyd.
"Amari….you—you just…." Lloyd sputters softly.
"Relax," I say. I bend down and reach towards the pierced opening of the poser to pull back a hand full of black feathers. "It wasn't really her."
The expressions of utter shock still remained planted on their faces. It probably made the moment worse that Kai passed out right next to Lloyd.
"I'm going to guess this had something to do with Dimitri?" Jay asked.
"I don't know, but that would be a good assumption. I remember seeing something like this while patrolling Paradise. They could be demons disguising themselves as people you may know or love just to trick you and take you out." I explained. "I never did it before because I was always treated like I couldn't handle it, but I know now that that's not true. Lloyd, we need to go talk to your dad. He's the only one that can help us."
"What about, Kai?" he asks.
Zane steps into the picture, "I could take him back home and meet back up with all of you at his monastery."
"We might as well go all together now." Jay states.
"Then let' get on it."
Jesus Christ, these chapters seem to be getting shorter and more boring by the upload D'X. I promise I will try to make this story better! Oh, may I also add that I got baptized yesterday? It was so much fun! I almost tripped when I was getting in the tub XD! Praise the lord. Bless you guys and see 'ya next time!
