Part 4: Entries 2- BURNED IN MY MIND
MAMA AND PAPA ARE SICK...
I'm doing all I can to help them while not getting sick too, I don't want the worry to get worse and make their sickness worse too.
During my off time, I've been practicing so I can help them and protect them..but I'm keeping my gloves on. Maybe the illness can't hurt me if I wear my gloves!
I'm gonna put my all into helping them get better!
Talon nodded as he got up and went to the fireplace, grabbing the handle of the pot full of soup before cautiously pouring the soup in two bowls on a tray. He placed it one a rock before he picked up the tray and went to his parents room, opening the door a bit.
Young Talon: MAMA! PAPA! I BROUGHT SOMETHING FOR YOU TO HAVE!
Talon set the tray down, nodding.
Young Talon: RISE UP!
His hands glowed as he moved the tray into his parents room, setting the tray down before closing the door and sitting.
Young Talon: How did I do?
Tallon: *weakly* A-Amazing job son. Your such a fast learning.
Young Talon: Thanks! Been working hard on it so don't you guys worry! I'll take care of everything while you get better!
Clarity: *weakly* T-Thank you so much dear. We're so proud of you.
Talon smiled, taking out his book before he started writing.
So far Mama and Papa are bed ridden, but I did notices alot of things with them that might be the same with other Falcon Rusherz.
First, their hot like REALLY HOT. So much that their sweating. Their veins are also glowing like our power, but it keeps spreading up their body. Their in pain too, maybe it cause they also cough up blood.
I hope they get well soon. Maybe there's a way to fix them.
Present...
Both men starred at the page for a while.
Arthur Blank:...Okay it's gotten worse so much worse, Talon we had no idea.
Matt Ryan: Dang Talon, i-is that why you wear those gloves even in summer?
Their hearts broke at the information that they just read, knowing full well Talon became an orphan soon enough...BUT THIS.
Arthur Blank: First thing I'm doing once he gets better is taking him to Paschal's and getting him ALL THE PEACH COBBLERS his heart desires.
Matt gave a small chuckle and a small smile.
Matt Ryan: Yeah, he's gonna need alot of TLC after all this.
With that they turned to the next page, determined to do their part to help their Rusher...even if it meant heading to the most heartbreaking part of his life.
I-I don't know what else to do but..I'm doing my best. Mama and Papa are getting worse and when I look out the window-
-I see nothing but fallen Falcon Rusherz, and the smell of blood is unbearable.
I did see something flying over us, it-it's a Blitzbot. But, it seems to just be servaying the area. Who knows how long till the army comes to our town...or what is left of it.
...I don't know of Mama and Papa will last till then. I manage to not get sick, maybe it's cause of the gloves.
.
...But-
Talon tears fell onto the page, as he shakenly wiped his eyes. It was dark out and the only light he had was a candle he had found and lit up.
The whole area was earrily silent, Talon's quiet sobs being the only sound.
He took a shaky breath, sniffing.
But Mama and Papa fell unconscious. They won't wake up and their veins around their body are covering them even more.
I'm putting my all in my training, even becoming more stronger than most Falcon Rusherz my age, but other than that I had no idea what to do once I know everything. THERE IS NO WAY I'M TAKING MY GLOVES OFF EVEN WHEN I REACH THE PEAK. I'M NOT GETTING INFECTED.
I don't know what to do. What to do if Sudden Death comes, or what to do with Mama and Papa...I'm scared.
I'M SO SCARED.
I WANT MY PARENTS.
I WANT SOMEONE, ANYONE.
.
.
I DON'T WANT TO BE ALONE.
Present...
Tears fell from both men's eyes as they finished the page. The book shoke in Matt's hands.
Matt Ryan: *heartbreak* T-They died from this, did they.
Arthur Blank: *heartbreak* Talon why didn't you tell us?...*realization* Oh my gosh the other Rusherz don't know either.
Matt stopped shaking as he paled in horror at what the owner had realized.
Matt Ryan: T-They had no idea Talon went through something like this...Oh man their going to be in the same state we are once they hear this.
Arthur Blank: O-One thing at a time Ryan..-shaky breath- B-but...what happened that day...is it next?
Matt shakenly turned the page with that in mind..
..OH THEY WISHED THEY COULD WIPE THEIR MINDS ON WHAT THEY READ NEXT.
MAMA AND PAPA DIED.
They passed away this morning after weeks upon weeks of everyone dying around us...I'M THE LAST FALCON RUSHER HERE.
I'm all alone now and I-
?: SEARCH THE AREA!
Talon jumped as he grabbed his book and rug-shacked backpack before he flew up into a tree, hiding from the danger.
.
.
THERE HE WAS, SUDDEN DEATH AND HIS ARMY. AND HE WASN'T ALONE.
Lord Zatu: *disgust* Urg, what a mess. We didn't even reach here and already this looks like a massacre.
Sudden Death: Indeed, I have not even seen this area other than the one mapped out from the Blitzbot.
Talon watched from the shadows, fear hitting his heart fast as he kept silent. One armored Anitcorian ran up, he could sense FEAR.
Zatu's Commander: *fear* SIR! We must leave at once! This area is surrounded by an INFECTION!
Both: *shock* WHAT?!
Zatu's commander: *fear* Yes! We investigated and found out the entirety of the Falcon Rusherz were wiped out from a fatal infection. We are not sure if it can spread to us but we do not want to take the risk!
Zatu nodded, sighing in annoyance.
Lord Zatu: Well, there's go getting energy from the Falcons..*Darkly* BURN THE AREA. I WANT TO MAKE SURE WE STILL DISTILL FEAR IN ANY SURVIVORS.
.
THEY CAME...THEY BURNED IT...THEY BURNED IT ALL. ALL THE DEAD, ALL THE HOUSES, THEY BURNED IT ALL.
Talon's tears fell fast as he cried quietly, watching as his home was burned with all the bodies.
Sudden Death: At least we now know to watch out more for this. We must not let anyone know about this infection.
Lord Zatu: Yes. I will not have my reputation be ruined by a illness. *to the army* Let the rumor be known that I did attack, but the rest were wiped out by the infection left by ME to all Anticorains. Let the Rusherz know I wiped them out through!
Talon shoke in fear as he watch on from his hiding spot...vowing to himself-
I CAN NEVER LET ANYONE KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. NO ONE WILL KNOW.
Present...
The sounds of a glass breaking was heard, as Matt had gotten up and thrown a glass cup to the wall in a mix of anger and sorrow. Arthur was left speechless as he starred at the book.
Matt Ryan: *anger/sorrow* THIS IS SICK. ABSOLUTELY SICK AND MESSED UP AS IF I COULDN'T HATE THOSE TWO POOR EXCUSES OF LIFE ANYMORE.
Arthur said nothing as he was left in shock at what they had read.
Arthur Blank: *sorrow;shock*...Talon, you should of told us...we could of prevented this.
Both men were left in silence, as they allowed their emotions out.
...
The page turned to the next one, Arthur looking down on it...His eyes widen as he urged Matt back to his side.
HEY, IT'S ME.
BEEN, GOOD COUPLE OF YEARS. I'M AN ADULT NOW AND I-
.
.
I MEET A FRIEND. A PATRIOT RUSHER.
To Be Continued...
