Premonitions
We are shown what seems to be a battlefield of some sort, on the ground is a youth with red hair struggling to get up.
"Come on...Get up!" Yelled the boy in his thoughts. He looks up, and it is revealed that he has blue eyes. His eyes widen to see that one of his comrades,
who while in silouette, looks like that of a girl. The other silouette is shown looming over her, aiming a gun like mechanism to her head.
"This is the price for those who cross us." Said the man in silouette.
BANG!
"NOOOOOOO!" Yelled the boy who then proceeds to fall into some abyss.
"AH!" Screamed the boy, waking up, realizing that it was all just a dream.
"It happened again." The boy thought to himself. He looks out the window, and see's a nice blue morning sky. "At least it's finally clear out."
He proceeds to look at a clock, and a look of horror appears on his face. "Oh crap! I'm going to be late!" Yelled the boy.
From the outside, we see what appears to be his house. It's a standard two story building with two windows on the top and bottom floors. It is made up entirely of wood. Crashing and rummaging is heard on the inside. The youth then leaves his house, now donning a blue shirt and black denim pants. He turns left and begins running off.
Meanwhile, we cut to what seems to be a forest. The sound of stomping and roaring is heard in the distance. Upon closer inspection, we find a group of people attempting to subdue what seems to be a large green quadraped dinosaur. On it's tail, is a set of two large spikes probably used to impale those trying to attack it.
"ROAR!" Roared the dinosaur like creature, revealing two pairs of razor sharp fangs, smaller sharp teeth in the back. The monster is shown to be bombarded with wires.
"Sheesh, this thing just doesn't want to stay down!" Yelled one of the people shooting wires.
"Where the hell is Noel? We could really use his help here!" Yelled another person.
"ROAR!" Roared the dinosaur creature again, using it's immense strength to snap some wire, but not all of it.
"Ah jeez!" Yelled one of the workers.
The boy comes running in.
"Well, it's about time you showed up." Said the first worker.
"Sorry, so, what do we have here?" Asked the boy.
"This is a Behemasaur, and as you can see, we can only hold her for so long!" Said the second worker.
"Alright then." Said the youth, taking out a medium sized sword.
"Don't kill it, the boss man specifically asked that this one be sent back to him alive." Said another worker.
"I'll see what I can do." Said the boy.
The last of the wires break, and the Behemasaur let's out another roar.
"HYAH!" Yelled the boy rushing at the Behemasaur.
"ROAR!" Roared the Behemasaur who attempts to bite him when he get's close. The youth jumps up at the last second and slams the sword flat on the beast's head.
"Roar." Roared the Behemasaur before going unconcious.
"Nice one!" Said the second worker.
The youth walks away from it.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, Fred, David." Said the youth.
"Noel, this is the third time this week you've been late. Is something going on?" Asked the first worker, now shown to have brown hair, brown eyes, a white shirt and blue denim pants.
"Nothing is wrong Fred, it's just that I've been waking up later than usual." Said Noel.
"That's not good Noel, you can't continue showing up late like this." Said the other worker, having long black hair and green eyes.
"Try going to bed earlier, maybe that will help." Said Fred. "Alright boys, wrap her up!"
The other workers in the area begin to wrap the Behemasaur up in wire. Other workers approach and tie the monster up.
"WHISTLE" Whistled David addressing someone riding a forklift like machine. The worker drives up and lifts the Behemasaur, dragging it out of the area.
"That's it for today folks, come back tomorrow." Said Fred.
All the workers walk off. Noel also begins to walk off.
"Noel." Said Fred.
"Yeah?" Asked Noel.
"Make sure you get to bed early tonight, we can't afford for you to be late like this constantly." Said Fred.
"OK Fred." Said Noel. Noel then proceeds to walk off.
Meanwhile, in some nearby tent. A man wearing sunglasses comes out, he is shown wearing a cowboy hat, brown buttoned shirt, and brown pants. The Forklift device from earlier is shown dragging the Behemasaur towards the tent.
"Here's the Behemasaur you wanted sir." Said the man driving the forklift.
"Excellent work." Said the man, obviously the boss of this particular band.
"Sir, any reason why you want this particular monster alive?" Asked the Forklift driver.
"That is none of your concern. Just drop this thing off and get out of here." Said the boss.
The forklift drops the Behemasaur, creating a large crash. The Behemasaur wakes up, and begins to struggle with the wires.
"ROAR!" Roared the Behemasaur.
"Heh heh heh." Laughed the boss.
That night, we are shown Noel resting in his bed, he is shown tossing and turning.
He is shown to be dreaming again, this time he is by himself. A constant slamming of footsteps and mechanical whirring is heard. Noel tries attacking the large monstrosity, only to be knocked back.
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha!" Laughed a mysterious voice. "Noel, consider it an honor, your blood will be the first to be spilled against this glorious new weapon!"
The monstrosity opens it's mouth, and a blue light begins to charge up.
"This weapon shall surpass even the Guardians! Say goodnight!" Said the mysterious voice.
The monstrosity fires, and Noel is consumed in the blast.
"AHHHHHHHHH!" Yelled Noel
"Ah!" Screamed Noel, now finding himself waking up in the middle of the night. He looks and checks himself, and see's that he's OK.
"Why? Why do these dreams continue to haunt me? Is this some kind of warning?" Thought Noel. Suddenly, the sounds of screams and terror are heard outside.
"What the?" Asked Noel. He opens a window, and finds that the town is being attacked by a swarm of monsters.
"Is this another dream!?" Thought Noel. He pinches himself. "Definately not."
Noel opens his drawer and get's his sword out. He runs out of the house, instantly being ambushed by a blue cat like creature standing on it's hind legs,
and possessing large claws.
"GROWL!" Growled the blue cat beast.
Noel kicks it off of him, and slashes it.
"RAH!" Yelled the beast, it falls down and spontaneously combusts. Noel runs out and is then swarmed by red orb creatures.
"Balloons, of course." Said Noel, who dodges one of their attacks. He slashes at the one Balloon, and slices it in half. The others attack Noel and are then met with the same result. Noel then begins to run off to another part of town.
We are shown a woman running away from a red bug like creature resembling a locust with mantis blades. The woman trips and turns around.
"No! NO!" Yelled the woman. The bug monster is about to cut her down only to have it's head sliced off by a boomerang.
"Holy crap, that was a close one!" Said David.
"Tell me about it, that was a Artherox, those things can slice through anything like a hot knife through butter." Said Fred.
"Are you OK?" David asked the woman.
"I'm fine." Said the woman.
"Go, hide somewhere. Don't come back out until the situation is handled." Said Fred.
The woman nods and runs off.
"Fred, David!" Yelled Noel.
"Noel!" Yelled Fred.
"What's going on, where did these monsters come from?" Asked Noel.
"I have no idea, but we can discuss ideas later. First we need to clear out the city. All the other workers are doing their part as well." Said Fred.
Another blue cat monster lunges at them, only to recieve an arrow to it's throat.
"Nice shot David." Said Noel.
The three of them are soon sorrounded by three Artherox's and more Balloons.
"HYAH!" Yelled Noel, slicing one Artherox in half. Another one attempts to slash at him, only for Noel to cut it's head off. All the Balloons are dispatched by Fred's boomerang. The last Artherox is shot down by David. All the monsters spontaneously combust upon death.
"Nice work guys." Said Fred.
STOMP!
"What was that?" Asked David.
"I don't know, but whatever it is sounds big." Said Noel.
STOMP! STOMP! STOMP! STOMP! STOMP! STOMP! STOMP! STOMP!
From around the corner is the Behemasaur, it looks in their direction and growls.
"ROAR!" Roared the Behemasaur, now making their way towards them.
"The Behemesaur!" Said Fred.
"It escaped! That's just perfect." Said David.
"ROAR!" Roared the Behemesaur.
"Looks like it has a vendetta against us." Said David.
Noel places the sword in front of him. "I'll take this one." Said Noel.
"By yourself? What are you nuts?" Asked Fred.
"I can handle this overgrown lizard, you guys go and search for other survivors." Said Noel.
"Be careful, this thing isn't your typical small fry." Said David. David runs off. Fred looks back.
"Be careful, Noel." Said Fred. Fred then proceeds to run off.
"ROAR!" Roared the Behemasaur once more.
Noel takes a defensive stance, and the large dinosaur begins to lunge at him, roaring on her way towards him.
To be continued.
