Ch. 4 The Creatures Connection
Things were really weird when Zon let Alex stroke her main. She never let anyone but Zak pet her and, like Komodo, never got attached to people so quickly. Doc and Drew thought it would be best if Alex kept going to where ever she was going. They were about to say that, but Zak pleaded with them to let her come with them.
Obviously he wasn't going to stop until they agreed, so they did. After that Alex was allowed to come with them. She was very happy that the Saturdays were kind enough to let her come with them. As the ship took off into the sky, Doc set it on auto polite, and then they all went into the lab (not the one in their house, but on the ship) they were studying the Kur stone to see if this creature had any ties to Kur. They searched the stone up and down until Drew found a very strange symbol that was similar to a dragon.
"Odd, I've never noticed this dragon symbol before." Drew said
"Can you tell us what it says?" Doc asked
"Well I'm not a hundred percent sure, but I think it reads "When the four elements of the beast unight as one, the path to Kur's destructive power as begun."
"Wait, are you saying that this thing can awaken Kur's power or something?" Zak asked.
"I don't know Zak, but now that we know what it's capable of we need to find it and stop it before it gets the chance." Drew said
Mean while Alex had many terrifying thoughts running through her mind, because she knew one thing about the creature that the Saturdays didn't. Any ways Doc and Drew thought this was very important information that the other scientist should be aware of. They called the entire secret scientist team at once on the video screen and told them what they discovered. They asked them to help with a search for the creature, and everyone agreed without hesitation. After that was done they decided that they deserved a good well-earned rest. Before Alex could rest Drew took her to the medical room to have her wounds looked at.
It was nothing too serious, just a few minor scratches and bruises. Drew cleaned the scratches on her face and her arm then placed bandages on both of them. When that was done Zak and Fisk took Alex to the room she would be staying in. It was like any other room a bed, a dresser, a lamp, and a closet. Drew also gave her some new clothes sense hers were trashed. One of them was like the uniform that Drew wore. She was very thankful for the kindness that the Saturdays showed her.
Before Zak left Alex hugged him to say thank you. When she let go he turned to hide his face, as it was turning red. He also had a small smile on his face that was a combination of happiness and embarrassment. Fisk tried to stop himself from laughing out loud as he had never seen Zak like this before. When he was gone Alex closed the door and slid down onto the floor.
She became very afraid about Zak and his family discovering her dark secret. One tear escaped her eye from this thought, but when it hit the floor it made a small sizzle noise and left a burn mark there. It wasn't that bad, just a little black mark on the floor. Eventually she got ready for bed. She then slipped on a nightgown that Drew gave her and laid down comfterbly in her bed. Then she drifted off to sleep.
