Wild Warriors: The new journey begins

Chapter 22 Destroyer of villages

"Shan wake up sleepy head!" Mia screams in my ear. My eyes immediately gaze at the woman with blue eyes Mia, both of her hands are placed on her big hips, right foot tapping the pavement floor.

I growl silently at being bothered by her. "What do you want." i grunt.

"What do i want!" Mia leans to my face. "You know we're both on watch out duty! Do you expect me to do all the work!" she's sadly right, i shouldn't be sleeping on the job, lightning warriors have more pride than that. But what are we waiting for, we haven't had any attacks for years. This place is almost hard to find, i bet that Creeper guy wouldn't find a place with thousands of stairs above the sky with a gigantic gate that won't open without the element of lightning, yeah they'll have to go through something that could be a huge drag. Then there's these villagers that can move at the speed of light with powerful weapons and defenses. Even the crow and shark warrior couldn't beat the ultimate defense warrior Lars.

"We've been on the look out for hours Mia can you please let me sleep."

"Do you think that's going to happen." she has a smile planted on her face.

"Fine," i sigh. "I'll take you out for breakfast in the morning, I'll pay for everything." she gets away from my face and stare down the stairs of lightning. I'm guessing that means i get to sleep for the day. "Thank you." i say in relief trying to get comfortable on the rock I'm using as a bed, i close my eyes and let the dream begin.

Something warm lands on my cheek and i instantly get pissed knowing what it is. "Mia if you make it rain on top of me, i swear i will show you the meaning of the one hundred years of lightning!" i scream at her with my eyes still closed.

She doesn't reply, but I'm sure she got the message. Then the warm liquid lands on top of my face again. One time, four times, now seven times.

This time she's gone to far. I got up fast enough to show her my fury. Wait not her, but a it maybe. Standing in front of me is something that i never wanted to see. I don't understand if it's a nightmare, or just reality. Metal skull on fire is something I've read about before, and what's facing me is the demon skull warrior.

"One hundred years of lighting huh," his voice sounds demonic. "Sounds interesting, it would've been better than what i did to her." he holds the head of Mia at his side. Tears and fear are exposed at the sight of what I'm seeing, and a little bit of pee came out too. "But don't worry," he continues. "Your death will be far more painful." he grabs my leg which is burning hot to the touch, i wince as his hands is burning the flesh of my ankle. He drags me to the ground where he stands on top of me. "I want to play a game. This game is called tug of war"

"If you're willing to escape your death, you're going to crawl to the gate for your life. If i manage to drag you to the stairs, your death will be slow and no one will know." something metal attaches to my ankle making me squeal. I look down to see It's a chain. "Let the game begin." he jumps a few feet away from me. I can feel myself getting dragged and i quickly take out my daggers and stab at the ground holding onto my life desperately. I crawl closer and closer to the gate, i draw all my aura to my hand to open the gate, tell them everything that happened, hunt him down and get revenge for the falling Mia.

The chain around my ankle tightens and dragged away from the gate. Fear is increasing inside as i crawl desperately. I let out a little cry for how much it burns. I fear if i look down at my ankle, that I'll see the bone. I crawl closer to the gate and relief is coming back to me, I'll live another day, no worrying about how slow my death will be. My hand touches the gate then a light shines as it's opening. "Everything is going to be okay," i thought to myself. "I shall live another day."
