The Moon Childe (COMPLETED)

Chapter 12: Reunited

One last howl from the goriila indicated that it was angry and ready to take out its rage on anything it could find; in this case, it was Jerry's unconscious body. Amelia saw the gorilla bare its teeth at Jerry, and had an urge to attack him. It picked itself up and and howled, in anger this time. Amelia bolted from the corner and ran towards to shouting giant. The gorilla pounded next to Jerry, cracking the ground near him and the force of the ground-pound leaped the limp Jerry body slightly into the air. Once he landed on the cracked ground, Jerry reopened his red eyes. He flinched voilently once he heard the howling gorilla, and looked up; he tryed to force himself up, but he couldn't because of his broken ribs.

Amelia ran and jumped high into the air, again, but this time she anticipated the beast's movements. She narrowed her eyes and concentracted on the giant's movements; it was clear that it was going to fist the ground again, only where Jerry was. Amelia readied her arm blade, by reeling it backwards, and used her open left hand to grip her fused right wrist; to better generate the action she wanted to do.

Jerry was frozen in shock, unable to move a muscle. The gorilla lifted its massive hands into the air and was about to slam them onto the ground Jerry was occupying. Amelia used all her might to swing her entire body forward and to aim for the beast's forearm. She flung herself forward and used her blade to slice through the gorilla's thick, eletrical arm. Electrical shocks were flickering at the tips of the broken wires; the beast retracted its stumby arm and used its normal to cover the edge, but it was shocking the other hand. It would continually scream in pain, but Amelia and the others were uncertain by which pain the massive creature was shouting.

Amelia turned away from the howling beast and knelt next to Jerry; positioned in between the gorilla and its seavered hand. He was petrified, unblinking, and holding his breath; Amelia wasn't sure what was wrong with him, but she knew getting him to Ses would prove to be more difficult than she bargined for.

"Jerry?!" she plaaced a hand on his shoulder and gave him a light shake; he reamined unfazed. His wide red eyes were full of his normal crazed look, just fear and shock. "Get off your ass! We gotta move!"

Suddenly, Amelia heard someone call out to her; however her, and Jerry's, attention was drawn toward to see the besat howl. Somehow, Amelia knew that that particial howl wasn't for the pain, sounded a lot like a revenge howl. The giantic gorilla used its normal hand to attempt to smash the two tiny humans. Amelia allowed the device in her neck take control of her body. It flipped her on her back and kicked out her legs; right under the gorilla's open-palmed hand, a square, green shield-like thing appeared. The green shield was being forced by Amelia's legs to push back the massive hand away, although the gorilla was much more stronger than her, so she only stopped it from crashing onto them. Amelia's legs held the shield up and both Amelia and the gorilla began to play tug-a-war.

Her friends called out her friend, and Ses even shouted for Jerry; the little room from the gorilla's hand and them was slowly decreasing. Amelia's  arm blade resided back into her arm, but remained covered in metal (she didn't know she could do this). She focused her extra might into her legs, to slightly increase the space, so Jerry could sneak out. But, he was still frozen in fear.

"JERRY" Amelia shouted for him to become unpetrified, but he didn't move. "RUN, GET OUT. HURRY!" she demanded from him, but he wasn't listening, instead he remained still. "JERRY!!" she snapped at him, but again, he didn't move. Her legs were getting weaker, but she wouldn't abandon her friends, or Jerry.

Taking a risk, for the sake of saving her friends, Amelia bent her knees, to allow the gorilla to think it was closing in on the humans. Instead of giving up, and accepting her death, Amelia forced her lower back off of the ground and swung her legs around. The little extra pressure from before was enough for the gorilla to completely retract its hand away; but Amelia kept spinning her legs. Her friends watched as she preformed some sort of break-dancing move with spinning on her back and spinning her legs around above her head. The gorilla watched as the square-shield on the balls of her feet spun with her thin legs; with ever spin, Amelia was calculating what she wanted to happen.
