Fallen Stars

Chapter 50:Destroying The Western Nitaves

Alan-

We're driving in the state of Washington, when Kyle comes with a way to kill time.

"Since we're not doing anything productive," Kyle tells me and Lisa."We can destroy the Nitave bases here out west."

"Good idea," I say."But we're not that powerful, well we are-but not powerful enough to fight entire armies of Nitaves."

Kyle sighs, he's in the passenger seat and I'm driving. Lisa, who is in the backseat, tells us something interesting.

"There are some weakly-guarded bases here in Washington. Actually most of the weak bases our here out west." She explains.

"Great, let's wreck some Nitaves." I say.

The Nitave base near the city of Tacoma is a small one. It's the size of my old house in Chicago. The walls are metallic and painted white. The area is surrounded by a thick cluster if trees. The base appears to be occupied by only ten Nitaves.

They won't be expecting a thing.

Two guards are outside the entrance to the base, on their phones-tiny blasters tucked inside their holsters. Their backs are facing us, a suprise attack will be easy to commit.

"Are you enjoying the day, ladies?" Kyle asks the Nitaves, playfully. I hurl fireballs at them before the can even touch their blasters.

Lisa takes the blasters and we advance to the entrance. With ease, Kyle kicks the door down. Three Nitaves shoot up from their seats, as they draw their swords Lisa opens fire. I send a jet of water at their feet. The Nitaves slip and their bodies collide with the floor.

Once we have them incapacitated, killing them is easy. We move on to the next room where a Nitave is too busy eating a sandwich and listening to music on her earphones. She dies in three seconds when I engulf her with my flames.

"Freeze!" A Nitave says, blaster raised. A door is open behind her and that's where she must have emerged from.

Kyle pushes his fist forward in the direction of the Nitave. A telekinetic force slams the Nitave into the metal wall. Her blaster drops to the ground as her fingers are telekinetically pried from the weapon.

"Tell us what you're keeping here and we won't torture you," Kyle says, getting into the Nitaves face."I can read minds, I'll know if you're lying."

"We keep a prisoner under the building, in the dungeon," She tells Kyle, her voice clearly showing the panic she's in."He's a Shiner teenager who killed my sister, that's why he's in there."

"Thank you." Kyle tells the Nitave, cruelly. He snaps her neck with Telekinesis."Like I said before, I told you we won't torture you if you gave us information, but we didn't promise we won't kill you. Bitch."

We enter the room the Nitave emerged from. There's a metal hatch in the floor that most likely leads to the dungeon. A boy that looks like he's fourteen years old is lying on a metal bench. The walls around him are barred.

His hair is long and black, he's also very skinny. Kyle frees him by ripping the bars apart.

Now it's time to get of here.

When the four of us are back outside, a chubby boy with bushy black eyebrows and reddish-brown hair drops from the sky. He's dressed in black clothing and has a murderous look in his eyes.

"Hey, I'm Pete," The boy tells us. The familiar chill that alerts me of danger, flows throughout my body for a second."I was so lost and I don't know where my parents are."

"Cut the bull-crap!" Kyle yells, furiously."I know you're a traitor."

A door to the SUV opens, Will steps out-he's in the form of a muscular gorilla. He walks up to us, joining us-letting this traitor know we have backup.

"Okay, you got me," Pete says."Just let me live."

Kyle roughly grips the back of Pete's neck, forcing him to his knees."Kneel before the king!"

Pete whimpers at me feet.

"You wanna know what else he did, Alan?" Kyle asks me. He must have read Pete's mind and gathered information."He killed Seth and tried to get Maddy, Hank, and Lydia killed."

I kick Pete in his jaw, then lift him in the air. His feet hovers one foot above the ground, tears flowing from his eyes.

"I should kill you, right here and right now," I tell Pete, menacingly."But I won't do that, we're going to keep you prisoner. Now tell us everything about the Nitaves. When is Sharkutt arriving on Earth?!"

"Don't lie," warns Kyle."I'll know if you are."

"Sharkutt is going to arrive on Earth in one week, with his army of Shiners and Nitaves. The place he's going to arrive in, is a school in the state of Pennsylvania."

"Take us there," I tell Pete."But first, you're going to help us destroy these western Nitave bases."

Pete nods.

We spend the next six hours destroying Nitave bases. Pete has three superpowers that I've seen so far. He can fly just like Kyle and me, he has the ability of shooting laser beams from his eyes(like Cyclops from X-Men), and his final ability allows him to spew purple fire from his mouth.

Each base we come across, we free the prisoners and kill the Nitaves. We're most likely going to be part of the Nitave's most wanted. Gregory is the name of the Shiner teenager we saved. Gregory can send sonic blasts from his hands and take the qualities of whatever he's touching.

Pete informed us that we destroyed all the base of the western United States, except for one, so we make our way to the final western Nitave base. Like the others bases, this one is small-the size of a high school gym.

Four Nitaves guard the entrance of the base, their swords are situated beside the chairs they're sitting on.

"Just like the other bases, nobody destroy any part if the building, just in case there are any prisoners inside," I command. Everyone agrees with me."Let's do this."

Kyle pins the Nitaves to the wall using Telekinesis, while Pete disentregates them using his eye lasers. Two more Nitaves emerge from the base, blasters aimed. They open fire and Kyle deflects them with Telekinesis.

Pete sends a jet of purple flames at the Nitaves, they release short shrieks before disintegrating into ash. Then we enter the base. Six Nitaves stand in a large white room, eyes focused on their computer screens.

"Dammit!" A Nitave screams, noticing us. We destroy each Nitave in the room then advance into the base. The Nitaves don't stand a chance against us. We find absolutely no prisoners. We sent all of the prisoners from the other bases, to their homes. We also gave them the thousands of dollars that we took from the bases.

When we're outside the now-empty base, we high-five and whoop in victory. We did it-we successfully destroyed each Nitave base in the western U.S.

Four-

"Check this out!" Jace yells, running into my room.

"What is it?" I ask him, rising to a sitting position in my bed. He's holding a Nitave-Shiner Radar that also displays the bases of the respective beings.

"Wow." I say, examining the hologram. The Nitave bases in the western United States have been completely ridden of Nitaves. A few Shiner dots and one Nitave dot are in California.

"A bunch of guys got brave and must have killed the Nitaves out west. They just stormed into their bases and massacred them all," Jace says, amazed and proud."At least those guys are doing something. Meanwhile we're all chilling in some large fancy mansion."

I laugh and get out of bed."Maybe we should destroy some Nitave bases, too."
