Into the Darkness/ Intro

Chapter 4 We take on pods and gremblins

As we stared into the woods we were instantly surrounded by pods, in their true forms. Pods are huge ugly pink one eyed lizard men who can morph into any monster. I thought they wee extinct. I was wrong by a long shot. We drew our weapons. Suess smiled and ran. I cursed under my breath. He'd set us up. There were at least a couple hundred surrounding us. I smiled. "You fool," I said. "I'm the chosen one, alone I'm unbeatable but all 3 of us together. heh you have no chance." The leader stepped foward. "The chosen one huh," he grumbled. "Than this should be fun." I ran foward to attack. I never got the chance. Lightning filled my  lungs knocking me out. The last thing I saw was a pink eye glaring at me. I awoke in a jail cell. "Finally," Sabrina said. "You're awake. Now do you want to tell us why you bluffed about being the chosen one?" she asked. That's right I thought . They don't know. "Umm, I wasn't bluffing," I said. "When were you elected?" Jamal asked. "A week after I last saw you." I said. He smiled. "I'm friends with the chosen one, awesome." he stated. Sabrina chimed in to flirting. I blushed and could've been there all day but we had to escape. My face got serious. "Is there a key any where I said. Jamal sat up. "No but I have an idea," he said.  He stood up and started to chant. " What are you," I started. Sabrina covered my mouth and said that he needed concentration. A blinding light took up the whole room and when it was gone the cage had been dicentrgratd and there was a huge whole in the wall. I shook my head impressed. "Nice," We heard foot steps. "Come on," Sabrina shouted. We jumped through the wall falling 2 stories and rolling of our legs when we landed. We got up and ran. 3 pods stepped out in front of us. "Byuaku," I shouted. My sword appeared in my hand. I closed my eyes and allowed them to go red. "Air slice," I bellowed. I swiped at the air around me making the wind around turn deadly sharp. I pointed my sword at the pods and they exploded in to chunks of blood and body parts. We advanced further. "Going somewhere Trent Foxx?" A voice hissed. It was Suess. "Why you," Jamal growled. "If I were you I'd stand down," Suess said pointing up. War gremblins were crawling down the trees all around us. Others advanced from the forest. "Wow," said Jamal sarcasticaly. "What a small army," Just then each gremblin grew 8 feet tall. "Uh oh," I said. I dove to the left as arrows were fired at us. Sabrina shouted, "Kyaki,"and her enchaned bow appeared in her hands. She pulled he string and arrows of light pierced hit 3 targets making them explode. Jamal started doing hands signs. "Fire style fighting, blade of flame," he shouted as his firey sword appeared in his hand. I dove through 10 gremblins in seconds. Then I turned my focus on Suess, but 20 gremblins appeared in front of him. I pointed my sword at him. "Ha Ki Zoute De," I chanted. Suess froze terrified. The other gremblins guarding him got anxious. "What'd you do to him," one demanded. "I'm allowing him to see his worst fear," I stated. As if on que Suess beaded with sweat pleading.  "Please mr. Foxx don't hurt me. I froze. Mr. Foxx, I thought. That's what he called my dad. Why would he still fear him if he was dead. While Suess was in shock, the gremblins lunged. I side stepped them all. I then dove my sword into the ground. A black light flashed and a leigon of the undead destroyed the gremblins with out breaking a sweat.I sliced through 20 more gremblins and got to Suess. I lifted the spell and grabbed him. "How are you still afraid of that," I demanded. "Tell me now, is my dad still alive?" "Y... Yes," he croaked. "The over lord is keeping him prisoner." I got so angry he blew him to smithereens with my heat blast. I turned and Jamal and Sabrina were headed toward me their enemies apparently destroyed. Then a war gremblin jumped out of tree straight toward Sabrina. Without looking she shot an arrow of pure light at it. "We gotta hurry," Jamal said. "The pods will be here any second," I nodded still shaken up from the news. Jamal studied me. "Something wrong," he asked. I nodded no. "Lets just keep moving," I stammered. They rushed into the woods once again. Dad, I thought. A tear slid down my face.  And with that I caught up to my friends.
