"We have to evacuate everyone","The fire's spreading","Call damage control",We'll need them...........,
Sir,there's someone here....."who?", It's a girl......
"Sir,damage control is here",wait who's this
Call and ambulance,she needs medical attention.
~Waking up with no memory of who she is, Luna finds herself on a stretcher. She is being escorted to an ambulance.
"what's happening,where am I" luna said "you might have been involved in an accident,so you're in an ambulance" replied the fireman. Would you mind telling me your name?,"My name?,it's um...it's"...(I can't remember my name,why can't i remember my name,it's not just my name...everything else..it's gone). It's fine if you can't remember,the blast must have hit you hard,just try to breathe. "Blast?"luna said,Just forget about that for now,just breathe......
LUNA'S POV
It hadn't occurred to me before,i only started to feel the pain now. The pain that the large pipe through the left side of my abdomen caused.
It felt like hell and even worse, I couldn't scream....Every inch of me felt like it was being scraped by knives but i just laid there waiting to see what happened next.
~When they had arrived at the hospital,Luna had lost a lot of blood and was rushed to the casualty ward......The doctors were astonished at the fact that she hadn't passed out from her loss of blood. The doctors had second thoughts about operating on someone who was mysteriously found in the middle of the explosion, but after much consideration the doctors were ready to operate on her
"She needs to be taken to the operating theatre now". Ma'am we are going to give you
Anesthesia. Try to keep calm and just breathe.
~As she was slowly losing consciousness,the doctors were prepping for the operation.
After a few minutes, the operation started.
"Get me a scalpel" said the head surgeon, Yes sir, "We need to stop the bleeding",We can clamp the vessel and cut through the pipe, another surgeon said. "Let's do that".
Sir we can't, "And why not" replied the head surgeon, She's healing,It's like her body is rejecting all forms of treatment and healing itself.
~Suddenly the pipe started to burn up and completely vanished into thin air. Then the emergency alarm went off and the surgeons heard screaming and shouting from all directions
"What is going on",sir I'll go check
~The surgeon stepped out to check and was immediately struck down across the chest
"Lock the doors",Excuse me sir,we can't just leave him,"LOCK THE DOORS NOW!!", "I am not going to die at the peak of my career", We could've saved him sir, "He's dead,accept it",
We didn't know that for sure.
~Suddenly a body is smashed on the glass of the operating room. The outer extension of the room is layered with bodies and the sound of growling fills the whole theatre.
Then a creature walks pass the glass and the surgeons tremble. It had the appearance of a skeleton. It had claws and blood painting its ribs and bones. Alongside it a scarlet colored tiger with huge fangs and mighty paws. Each step it took shook the whole room.
"Everyone hide",the head surgeon whispered
~At that minute everyone took to their heels and hid under the tables. The monster cracked open the door and entered inside,his target was the girl and not the surgeons but the head surgeon's fear got the best of him and he attacked without thinking. That act alone prompted the others to attack to, but with one swipe of it's claws,everyone was down on the floor...grapsing for life,then the tiger pounced and finished them off.
The creature proceeded to kill the girl but was shot with an ARROW?
It turned back with all anger and attacked the archer but was impaled by the archer's acquaintance and as for the Tiger, it's head was cut off and it lost all life
To their surprise in the heart of these creatures, there was a black gem that contained energy but it crumbled in their hands.
"They were sent here to kill her" said the archer, That would explain the black gems, they were infused with energy which powered these creatures...,"Like a machine and it's fuel,right?", Yeah...but we have to go, grab the girl so we can complete our mission, "You got it".
~They took luna out of the hospital after wiping everyone's memory of so they thought...........
After a long drive, they got to an old rugged house that had weeds growing on it's porch and it's garden was filled with thorns. It looked like it had been hit with a storm. termites had already gotten into the wood and bugs were crawling out from the doors and windows. *WHO COULD POSSIBLY LIVE IN A HOUSE LI**KE THIS*?
They argued among themselves if it was wise to take luna into their hideout, they didn't even know what she could do, but they all agreed to take her in but under tight surveillance.
After a couple of hours, Luna woke up, the light was blinding and it looked like a library. Then something stood out to her.......
"1800"?, it looked in pretty good shape for a book from the 1800's, it's cover was furnished with a gold encrusted locket and it was perfectly lined up with other books of its kind. Luna was still dizzy from the anesthesia and she felt completely drained but she was more focused on the grand appearance of the library,it was extremely lit and it's books had the scent of fresh leaves after the rain. When she walked towards the center of the library, there were a group of people arguing,luna watched them for a few minutes then finally decides to ask "WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE"
"WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE", Oh sleeping beauty is finally awake zack said, Stop it replied kim, "Could you just answer me", Why should we,we ask the questions here, Zack stop, kim said
"Fine don't answer me,but can i have some food,am starving", And now she wants food,she's a liability,a burden
~Luna rolls her eyes and goes to explore the library hoping to find some food. She looks around and finds some books laying in a pile.
"That's weird,why are they the only ones in a pile", she reaches for one and it immediately emits energy. 'I suggest you back away',she looks back and she sees a boy wearing a hoodie and baggy trousers, he looked and sounded like he had just woken up.
"Is there something wrong with the book"? Luna asked, it feeds off your emotions and turns you crazy replies marcus , "Really"?, yeah, "then why isn't it stacked away or on the bookshelf"?, it was on the bookshelf,i took it down because it looked out of place up there,"and it looks in place down here"?, Yep,let's go eat am starving, "i am too but am i really allowed to eat"?, yeah forget about zack,let's go
~ They head down to the kitchen, as luna admires the hallway filled with picture frames.
"Hey,who did this", Ambrose,why?, "it's really nice","the colors are natural,clear and harmonious". Thank you,ambrose said from the kitchen.
They walked into the kitchen and saw ambrose slicing vegetables...
Ambrose is like the head here,said Marcus, i am not the head,am just the oldest but enough about me,let's talk about you, he said while handing luna a chicken serving
"There's not much to say about me, i woke up in an explosion,then a hospital,then here", That's certainly an adventurous tale,
eat up he says with a warm smile, "oh thank you"
~The others step into the kitchen to have a meal and zack walks up to ambrose
You feel that energy right?," Yes i do", She's radiating dark energy,she can't stay here, "She can and she will zack","we are not going to leave her out in the cold with no memory of who she is,it's dangerous for her", She's a ticking time bomb,she has no place here, "You were also dangerous but we took you in,didn't we", Am going to eat
~They all sit together for a meal while laughing and talking,luna quietly excuses herself from the dinner table and goes on a personal tour. She walks through every hallway and is astonished by the beautiful look of each and every hallway. They all had red carpets and beautiful patterned walls, they gave off the scent of fresh spring and luna had a bright smile across her face. Suddenly she heard screaming and she ran back to the kitchen.
On getting there she sees kim screaming in pain on the floor
"what's happening", Stay away said zack, "what do you mean", what did you do to her, "nothing","i would never......, forget it,i should've known you'll just lie, enough zack, marcus said, No,we are all aware that she has dark energy and that it was a mistake bringing her here, "I have no clue what happened,am so sorry" replies luna, She's dangerous to us all and needs to be terminated now, "what!!", She might just kill us, "wait,please,hear me out"
~Luna started to fidget and her unstable took the best of her. It sprung like a dark ball of energy. The whole house started to rumble, everything with life in sight slowly started to fade.
See she's going to kill us all, The house will crumble with us in it if this goes on any longer,not to mention that she's slowly feeding on our energy,said ambrose. At that minute Marcus grabs her hand, marcus don't; ambrose said, calm down luna,I'm here with you and i know you don't want to hurt anyone, prove it now, just breathe. She stares at him with tears flowing down her cheeks, just breathe and count with me, 99....98, "97,96....95", good continue,just breathe
~Marcus held her hands tight and started to restrict her powers. "what are you doing", think of it as a shield,that's why am not affected by your abilities,it's my lucky charm, They both burst out in laughter and luna calms down. Ambrose approaches her,then gives a tap on her head.....;we'll have to learn to control those abilities,won't we, he says with a warm smile. Zack,what kind of person freaks out in an emergency like this,especially with your background, marcus said, Anyone can freak out,don't blame me, "Background"?, said luna, oh well didn't tell you, we are warriors, replied ambrose, "What's that", it's a CULT GROUP and you're our newest member,replies marcus, "What!!,Are you serious?", No he isn't,ambrose says as marcus chuckles, we suppose you were a warrior when you landed here,we think you were involved in the war we were informed about, ambrose continued, "War?",Yes there was a war at the other side, warriors are a group of people who protect the peace of both sides, and when the balance is tested we spring up into action, we were told to protect this half and stop intruders with our lives while you and many others fight at the other side, "OTHERSIDE?"
~Suddenly she recalls what happened during the war;" We must fight to protect our kingdom, CHARGE!!!"
Then she snapped back to reality, Are you okay, marcus asked, "yeah, i just need a minute", Do you want ice cream, "what"?, it always cures hangovers, "no it doesn't and am not hungover", Let's get you some water then,ambrose said,"I'll like that", "by the away,where are kim and zack", zack went to fix up kim, replied Marcus, "you say it like she's broken", isn't she?, "let's just grab the ice cream and watch a movie", now you want ice cream, I'll leave you too alone, added Ambrose, "bye ambrose", if you want to watch a movie,we need to head to the grand hall, "then let's go there"
~They head down to grand hall but they're surprised by an untimely visit of the bog creature BOB.........
BOB?, said Marcus, "YOU LEFT ME FOR DEAD SLAVE", More like i escaped your hands of death,bob, "YOU OWE ME SLAVE", Sorry but as you can see am busy and i can't leave this beauty alone, "Marcus, I think we should go", said luna, We can't, Marcus whispered; he is a creature of the bog,when they need to capture their prey,they release a deadly toxin, "Toxin?",replied luna, it kills instantly,Marcus added,
"WHAT'S WRONG SLAVE,FINE,FINE, I'LL GIVE YOU A CHANCE TO RUN", That's new,from past experiences i know BOB doesn't negotiate, Marcus said to the creature, "EXACTLY" the creature replied as let out it's toxins
Marcus immediately turns to luna and says "RUN, DON'T LOOK BACK, WHEN YOU GET TO THE DOOR,SHUT IT,
"But what about".......,LUNA RUN!!!
~Luna ran towards the door as the mist filled the room, she turns back only to see an empty room
"What?", "I just saw them minutes ago"
Suddenly Ambrose and Zack rush into the room
What happened?,said Ambrose, "Marcus was taken by bob", He's a bog creature,he has no use for humans but why take one?,replied Ambrose, Let's just find a way to save him,said zack, You're right make preparations,we must journey at once, replied Ambrose, "I'm coming along", Sorry but princess don't go on joy rides,replied zack, "That doesn't even make sense", Whatever Zack replied , Luna you are not ready or equipped,am sorry but you can not come, Ambrose said, "I can help, i promise", I'm sorry luna but i can't risk it, STAY HERE., Understood, "Yeah i get it Ambrose"
~Ambrose, Zack, and Kim set out on the mission to retrieve marcus while luna stayed at home. She walked back into the hall, hoping to find out how the creature escaped
"Well luna,there's nothing here again", i can't believe i let them get away, i should've helped him, but come to think of it, he has that shield thing why didn't he just protect himself
MEANWHILE.................
Back at the creatures dungeon, Marcus was held prisoner and attended to by 'SU', another one of bobs slaves
"You know marcus,you don't fool me, i see right through ya", Still have that leprechaun tongue I see, replied Marcus, "Don't mock my accent", "You know I've seen you take down an army with a snap of your fingers, so why did you get captured"?, Su asked, I was just no match for Bob this time,he overpowered me, replied Marcus, "There's no way he beat you, at least not with that annoying power of yours", Shouldn't you be mopping SU?, "Oh shut up prisoner", SU burst out in laughter and exited the room, then in no time after a few struggle's, Marcus breaks the chain and runs towards the door
BACK AT THE LIBRARY
~Luna still searches for a trap door or a shattered window that would explain their escape. She heads for the dinning table and decides to recite what she had learned in order to find an explanation for their escape
" Okay so bog is a creature that controls a deadly fog, and he captured Marcus and the disappeared ", "This is getting me nowhere, at this rate,I might as well grab some chips and hope they can save him", but why did the mist not affect me?, Marcus said it kills instantly and I know am not immune to death, so why?
Come to think of it, he's target wasn't me so releasing a wide scale toxin is useless and why go through so much effort for one person and from my observation Marcus power can block anything, so why attack someone who is suited for your power, he would've at least thought this through unless................ He doesn't intend on keeping him alive and knowing Marcus he would've protected me with he's shield not himself, he knew;Bob knew that Marcus would protect me that explains the wide scale attack and he doesn't intend on keeping someone who is a potential threat, so he took Marcus to his terf where he has a bigger advantage but it still doesn't explain how they escaped, wait!, the library should have knowledge on Bob
~With all exictment, she runs into the library and grabs every book she can find on mystical creatures
Okay, enchanting creatures, aquatic mammals?, why is there even a chapter about that, forest beasts, oh here it is Bog creatures, wait, aren't bog creatures technically forest beasts, anyway that aside it says "Bog creatures are know for their unique abilities, they are sometimes haunted down for their power which is why they created a living space for themselves". Well that's interesting, " Deep within the forest there are desolate spots that exist,these sites show no life but have water running through them like a SWAMP. These spots are where bog creatures reside, the trees are dried up due to the immense power taken by the creatures", "THESE AREAS ARE NOT CONDUCIVE FOR HUMANS!!" , wow shocker, "The creatures that release fog are by far the deadliest, their body releases a deadly toxin when threatened or in battle". "Their boby releases these toxins in the form or a mist which allows it to travel faster". "Their tangible bodies also make it easier for them to defrom and reform (reshape their molecular structure)." So that's how it escaped, Only the skin of a fog creature emits the toxin. In a fog creature, it's skin is like a cloth that can be removed so it's toxin is also quite dangerous to it. The mist form of the toxin and the tangible form of the creature both create a medium in which the creature is not affected by it's deadly poison.
Okay, I just found the answer to my problem but how do I get there in order to inform them, Arrrgh, i'll need another book....... Now where are the books for transportation
~As Luna walks thorough the library looking for books, she sees some glowing marble like gems. "Hmmm, interesting", it says "Think of where you must go then break the marble".
I don't even know where am going, well I'll take a chance, I need to help them
~After much thought, Luna takes a deep breath then breaks the marble. A mist appears and she is transported to
" A castle ?"
Why am I in a castle?, oh no, no, no, no, that marble thing got it wrong
~Suddenly she is pulled aside and held tight
"what are you doing"?, she asked, Shhhh, what are you doing here, "Marcus?","Oh my gosh,Marcus?", she grabs him and hugs him tight,
Yeah;yeah,am alive;yay for me,still what are you doing here, " I'm here to save you", You?,you and who, "well the others actually asked me to stay back but I had to help", so you transported yourself here?, "Yep", How?, "The marble thing said tobthink of where you want to go, so I thought of me wanting to be with you", That's certainly one way of confessing your love for me, " Oh shut up, am not confessing anything creep", So how do we kill Bob, "We make him inhale his toxin", doesn't he already do that, " no he actually doesn't ", okay so what's the plan, "the plan is to agitate him", so you want me to make him angry, " Yes, to fog creatures their first reaction is their mist which acts as offense and defense", "so when it releases it's mist you shield us and I control the mist to move I'm the direction of my target", you can do that?, "I'll figure it out along the way", okay let's do this
~They head down to Bob's throne room,as they approach it they bust the down and barge in
Bob,we are here,said Marcus," What!,who kicks down the door then says 'Bob we are here'?" replied Luna, I thought it was cool, "It was not", Whatever, by the way where's Bob!!?, " Did he already escape?
NO AM RIGHT HERE
~Bob jumps down from the ceiling and grabs Luna
Bob let her go,said Marcus, BOB DOESN'T NEGOTIATE, BESIDES I WANT TO SEE WHO YOU WILL PROTECT THIS TIME, YOU OR HER
"Um hello,her is standing right here", Luna are you okay, " No,he's breath stinks", Don't worry you'll get use to it, ENOUGH CHIT- CHAT ,DIE!!,
"Seriously that's your super villian comeback",Luna said, it was worse than I expected,Marcus replied, DO NOT DISTRACT ME, "whatever you say Bobbie", BOBBIE?,WHO's THAT?Bob asked, you bro,Marcus replied, ENOUGH!!!
~Bob releases his toxin and it begins to fill the whole room
"Marcus,change of plans,Shield me in with him", what!, I can't do that, " do it or we'll all die, including our friends, who's to say he won't hunt them down", but I........, "Don't worry, I'll be fine,am a warrior right?
~Marcus shields them in and the mist circulates around them
WAIT,WHAT'S GOING ON, " sorry BOB, but this is the end of the line for you", I'LL ESCAPE LIKE I DID BEFORE, "I highly doubt that'll work"
~As the mist begins to suffocate them, the room is filled with Bob's scream as he inches away from life
LUNA'S POV
As Bob's endless SCREAMS!!! filled the room, I could feel the mist fill my lungs and the chocking feeling came next but i heard a voice; BREATHE LUNA,BREATHE.
~The sheild suddenly exploded and only pieces of the creature remained. Marcus ran up to Luna and carried her from the chaos to the corridor.
Hey, Luna am here, you're okay, "Oh God,I feel horrible" said Luna, I think that's what you feel after an explosion,
Then they both burst out in laughter and then the others finally arrived.
Can we go home, I've had a tough week and I just want to rest said Marcus, "Maybe we can finish that movie" replied Luna, We never actually started watching it, "Well maybe we can start.
