Kira (a yogscast fanficton)

Beasties

As me and Rythian were walking downstairs we started to smell fresh bread and apples. We reached the kitchen and Zoey was pulling a pan out of the furnace, there were freshly washed apples sliced in a bowl on the table. "Morning!" Zoey said cheerfully as she cut the bread into slices and put it onto a plate. "Good morning!" I said back. Rythian smiled, "morning Zoey" "ok! You can sit and eat now!" She exclaimed, the 3 of us sat down at the table and ate the fresh bread and apples. "What are we going to do today?" Rythian asked, "I've been wanting to visit Martyn and Toby for awhile, could we visit with them?" Zoey asked. "Sure, I don't think I've met them before" Rythian said. So it was settled, after breakfast we all got dressed and ready to go. I put on my creeper hoodie again with my black sweat pants, It was a bit cold today. I ran down the stairs and waited for Rythian and Zoey to come down. Shortly after, they came down, Rythian wearing what he always wore and Zoey in a red shirt with black yoga pants. Together we headed out, Zoey leading the way to a place she kept referring to as Inthelittlecorp. We traveled through the forest, getting into thicker terrain as we went, soon it was becoming very hard to walk through, each of us turning to help each other over the obstacles in our path. We could all fly but Zoey said from above we would miss it, so we kept struggling our way through. It was getting darker and darker even though it wasn't even noon yet, "Zoey? Are you sure we didn't make a wrong turn?" Rythian asked, "yes I'm positive! They gave me directions the last time I visited, I just always came here with them and Martyn has a way with the forest" Zoey said. I didn't know what she meant about Martyn having a way with forests, but I was surly going to find out eventually! We scrambled around a big longer before we started to hear noises, it sounded like a whining noise, then there was another that sounded like the swishing of something moving, then another that sounded like a wolf howl. "Rythian..." Zoey squeaked, she seemed to shrink next to him, curling over and hiding behind him. I didn't like the sounds much either I decided as I edged closer to Rythian also. He put a protective arm around us as the noises got closer. We didn't walk anymore, we just huddled together, I wondered why we didn't just fly up above the forest. "Rythian? Why don't we fly?" I whispered to him, "we forgot to recharge our Klein Stars, I have almost no power, same with Zoey, we are stuck here." He whispered directly in my ear, Zoey being to distracted to notice and we didn't want her to hear that we were doomed. We heard the noises closer and closer, until we started seeing shadows dart around us. Zoey was crying softly into Rythian's shoulder and I sat quietly thinking next to Rythian, we just waited for death. "We can't go down without a fight!" I whispered to Rythian. He seemed started by my sudden pep talk, "Rythian, the greatest most powerful wizard and his apprentice, lost to unknown beasts, died without a fight along with their guest. Ryth, we have to try!" I said. Rythian seemed to gain life again, he looked at Zoey, crying into him, he seemed to harden. We were going to try, he wasn't going to let these beasts hurt Zoey, and neither was I. The day Rythian and I had shared our secrets we had made a silent promise to keep Zoey safe, she was a precious gift of happiness and goodness. I drew a sword, my old friend 'Seraphine' I had almost forgotten I had her, she glinted beautifully off the little bit of light, reflecting the trees. "I didnt even know you had a blade" Rythian said almost in shock, "I almost forgot myself, I don't have to put her on, she is just always there hiding. I call her Seraphine" I told him. He pulled out his Katar, "I don't have a name for my Katar, I just call it my Katar." He said, I laughed a little "good enough" then we started to see some snouts of animals nose out of the trees, we went to start slashing, Zoey lay in a crumpled ball, crying on the ground in the center of the little spot we were in. Rythian and I stood on either side of her, slashing and hacking at these mutant beasts. They were like wolves and something else, something terrifying. All of a sudden it was a flash as Rythian ran out of power, his Katar was just a dull knife now, barely cutting into their thick skin. "Shit!" Rythian cursed, I was scared, I knew that without Rythian's help I couldn't defend us all. I kept going with what I could, and fought and fought until I couldn't feel my body anymore. Then in a flash Seraphine broke, in a moment the world slowed down, everything went slow motion, I watched as Seraphine snapped at the hilt, leaving me and the rest of us completely defenseless, that's when I was hit, a beast took a gash out of my arm, then my stomach, then my face. I choked down a cry as the world sped up again, I was swordless and badly injured, I crawled backwards and curled up against Rythian and Zoey. We huddled up together as the beasts surrounded us, they had ugly faces, covered in saliva and blood, our blood. Rythian had a few gashes where their claws had dug into his flesh and I was covered in blood, the gashes bled out, gushing blood everywhere, but thankfully Zoey was unharmed, just covered in our blood. We knew everything was about to end, we were going die. Suddenly the beasts turned as if they heard a noise, but we didn't hear a thing. None of us said a word, knowing one whisper would redirect their attention. Then we heard it, it was like a howl mixed with a yell. I could hear the swishing of branches moving aside, then a boy in a green shirt with a bandana came running into our little clearing, followed by a boy in a gray hoodie. They ran in and saw us huddled in the center of the beasts, covered in blood, they turned and started to hack and slash into the savage beasts. The beasts pounced and there was a great fight. I tried not to look up but I heard the occasional "Toby! Look out!" Or a "Martyn! Behind you!" I didn't want to see the blood raining down onto my skin, I didnt want to see that blood join with my blood as it flooded out of me. The world seemed to be fading out, blackness was starting to cover my vision, these were my last moments, I thought. Then I heard a sound quite close to my face, I tried to open my eyes, but they didn't want to, they held tightly shut. I felt a hand take my pulse on my neck, "stay with me" I heard, the voice sounded young, not young young, but not old. Then there were hands under me, lifting me up. I curled around, holding tightly to the shoulder and neck of the person, "we have to run! Martyn says he can hold them off long enough for us to get out!" I heard him say, obviously to Rythian. I heard Rythian lift Zoey up, I could tell he was holding her too, "ready" I heard him confirm. Then the running started, bumping along as I held tightly to the neck of the boy who held me. I started to blackout, I wanted to stay, I tried to stay awake but I couldn't, I fell under. Soon all I knew was blackness and nothingness, I wasn't dead, I could still feel the pain of my body, but death was certainly coming. This was the end.
