The Runners

Chapter 5: A friend

Suddenly a figures leaps from the mists of the sunset onto the broken tower top. He holds a katana with a brown beard and brown long hair. He wears robes of many rusty colours and they whip in the wind.

"Well it looks like your having a bit of trouble there mate. "He exclaimed over the howling winds. "Guess I should help you out a bit." He leaps and slices down faster than a normal eye can see. The armored foe wasn't ready for this speed and his armour splinters as well as his flesh onto the ground. "The bony and flashy area between the shoulder blades are their weak spot. If killed in any other part of the body he will regenerate. It makes the job a whole lot easier doesn't it." The mysterious ally helps Kevin up and heals them with some sort of magic. "Who are you?" Kevin says to the anonymous man," I'm called razor. Didn't ever know my name really but fir now call me razor.  Because it sounds cool!" He smiled at them and they smiled back as kevin explains his plan to rid of the gravity. So they reach the massive glass dome covering this planet and smash so some chance of escape Is able.

"Mmmmmm." Razor replied seemingly puzzled." The only problem are the outreachers. These are a ravenous race devoted to their divine leader Drogor. This being wants rid of all of us runners to have the medallions to himself. Recently I just escaped his wrath on a planet nearby. But now he's arrived here, after aornica and had sealed the planet with a dome. Also it'll only change the gravity for a short amount of time. This plan was doomed to fail. But I think I could come up with a better one."

Kevin sat beside him stunned he's also a runner like him and a plan came to light. A good one." Basically first these birds are useless we need to leave them, rumors say there are many demons around this planet, each with some sort of key when all defeated the shield should be undone. Then my plan will show!" He spreads his arms in enthusiasm,"we both want these medallions right. We both want power to protect our families from the galaxy demons! Then once powerful and all I'd peaceful I will be the glorious king of our yes our empire of planets! But let's not think to far ahead. We need to keep the gravity stable, destroy the cage, then collect the medallions from this planet and move on. And while we're at it help the planet as I'm gonna be their king one day. You in!" He holds his hand out. "Well how could I decline! After all we have the same goal for peace and harmony. Let's do it.

After a long sprint we arrive at a cliff edge at a beautiful orange sunset. This reminds me of the good times on my home planet, those are over now. All we need is to be more powerful and with my friend here I'll be the best!
