Black Wolf of The Guardian Stone

Chapter 9

Tony stood there stunned, how was this possible. He had no siblings, his parents were dead and he didn't know of any relatives. It didn't make sense how could this kid be his brother.

Seeing that what he had said had taken Tony by surprise, he took advantage of the opportunity and rushed towards Tony.

Coming back to his senses Tony managed to dodge the kid at the last moment. He jumped out of the way just as the kid had pulled the object that he had on his back and hitting the concrete steps of the house with a loud bang as the steps explode into chunks and dust. Tony lands a few feet away from the house and takes up his defensive stance again. Keeping his eyes peeled for any attacks he readied himself. the dust cleared and the kid straightened up still holding onto the object he just missed Tony with berried under the rubble of what used to be the stairs.

"well that weapon of yours isn't going to do you any good now" Tony said calmly.

"what makes you say that Brother?" The kid asked him with a smile on his face.

"those steps were made with reinforced concrete so unless your weapon is made with something that is as strong as modified steel. Your weapon is no more." Tony said with a smile.

" oh, Is that what you think Big Brother," The kid said with a smile and chuckles a bit.

Confused by the kid's reaction,"why are you laughing, something funny" He asked the kid.

"You really are just a human, always thinking that whatever your precious science comes up with is the best thing," The kids said sarcastically.

"well guess what, nothing that you humans can make with science will come close to anything we got," He said to Tony.

He pulled his weapon from the rubble with ease and showed it to Tony. It was unreal, as he looked at the kids' weapon which looked like an oversized kitchen knife with a black grip and a chain on the hilt. There was no damage to the blade not even the smallest scratch or blemish on it. The blade extended to act as a guard stretching to past the end of the hilt, and red streaks that seemed to be pulsating. As if it were... alive.

Whatever material it was made from looked like something much stronger that Modified Steel. It had sustained absolutely no damage from the collision with the reinforced concrete steps.

Tony gripped the two cylinders that he had in his hands, he was sure that if it could do that to a set reinforced concrete steps. Then his weapon stood no chance against the kids' blade either. the kid pointed the massive blade towards Tony with a dark smile.

CRACK!!!! Tony's eyes widened as he watched Bonzo swing a metal baseball bat into Dead's skull, splitting it open causing it to spew its contents all over the ground.

"Not so fucking weak now am I kid," He said spitting on Dead's limp body which lay in a heap in a growing buddle of black blood.

"and that boys, is how you take care of brats like that one," he said turning back to his gang with a triumphant smile on his face.

Tony watching Dead's lifeless body suddenly realized something and tried to get their attention.

"Wait, Bonzo, he's not Dead" he exclaimed

"what are you talking about-" Bonzo began to say as he turned around to see Dead's body getting up again.

Black blood dripping from the broken skull, and swirled around his head with sickening sloshing noize they watched in horror as his skull was being put back together piece by piece. Then the blood vanished revealing Dead's face his head completely intact as if nothing happened.

Dead smiled at him as he prepared to hit him again with his bat. Dead licked his lips still smiling revealing teeth that looked like those of a shark. Realizing too late what Dead's intentions were Tony tried to intervene.

"WAIT BONZO, NO STOP!!!!" he yelled reaching towards Bonzo.

What happened next was too fast to see, but what it caused was clear to see. Tony and Bonzo's gang watched in horror as they saw Bonzo's torso land a few feet away, his legs still standing in the same spot in front of Dead. a few moments go by as they all stood transfixed by the sight, as they see blood dripping from a long tail coming out from under dead's cloak the tip of the tail had a bone that was shaped like an arrow. Blood dripped from its polished surface and is razor sharp edge shinned flawlessly in the sunlight.

A few moments go by and his legs finally fall to the ground. Still in shock Tony's mind was trying to process what just happened. Out of loyalty, and for revenge the gang let out a battle cry and rushed Dead. Brandishing their weapons knives, bats, pipes, and barehanded they charged. Deads' smile grew larger, and in an instant, there was a sudden streak of light as his tail disappeared and reappeared. All the members of the gang suddenly fell to the ground their heads rolling along the ground, an ocean of blood forming from their bodies in a heap.

Dead then turned to look at Tony the smile on his face wider than before, showing every pointed tooth.

"Now then dear brother of mine," He said to him brandishing his massive blade and his tail flicks off the blood.

"your tu-" he began to say as he began walking towards Tony.

When all of a sudden a black wolf rammed into Dead, sending him into a tree. The force of the impact caused the tree to splinter and snap in two with a loud CRASH!!!

Tony had then started to realize a warm sensation on his leg in his pants pocket. Reaching into his right pocket, he pulled out the small black stone he had been carrying ever since the day of his mothers funeral. It felt strangely warm in his hand, somehow the stone was giving off heat of its own. He then looked up to see the wolf staring at him, such beauty this creature had. Its eyes were electric blue that gave off a soft glow, its black fur glistened in the setting sun as a gentle breeze gently ruffled its fur. In its mouth, it held Deads massive blade clenched between its teeth saliva trickling down along the blade. The surface of the blade fogged over from the wolf's warm breath, the pulsating seemed to have quickened as if the blade was afraid.

They heard coughing from the direction of the tree that Dead had split upon impact. Rising from the splintered wood holding his arm and squinting due to his own black blood trickling down across his left eye. Dead came stumbling out of the wreckage spitting a glob of blood as he stood a few feet away from them.

"So, you finally decided to protect your new holder. You damn mutt"
