Children of the Heroes: Omega

Chapter 17: Old Friend

Tatar Pov

When Felix rubbed some dust off of the dragon's head, it turned on. It's eyes light up red. Then it started to click. The head hopped off the shelf on to the ground. It continued to click like it was talking.

"Guys, it says to follow him!"Felix said.

"You know him?"Jake asked.

"I think....he seems so familiar. Like he is a link to my past or something."

We followed the clicking head around another corner into a hidden room. On the walls hung various different bronze bodies. Not human bodies, but dragon bodies that each looked different. As if each one had a different purpose. As we walked past them I started reading some of the names on the walls out loud.

"Boat Model"

The others started in on it.

"Drill Model"

"Tank Model"

"Submarine Model"

I also noticed other things on the walls and tables too. Like a sketch drawing of a girl around our age, a pair of goggles, and blueprints to a boat I think...

The little clicking dragon head stopped in front of one of the models.

"All Purpose Model..."Felix said out loud. The he reached up and unhooked it from the wall. He sunk down to the floor with it, probably because it weighed as much as it looked.

The head kept making the same clicking noise right in front of the body. The all purpose model looked like a metal dragon..kind of. It had a dragon's claws, scales, and little wings. But it had the build of a german shepherd and a small metal dog tail.

Felix picked up the head and fiddled around with it for awhile until he took a screwdriver from his belt and tightened it on the neck.

"Whoah...clicky got an upgrade!!"Jake said.

Clicky stood up and let out a bark, click hibrid sound. It was pretty cool.

"What can clicky do?"asked Clare.

"Hopefully something to get us out of this tunnel. And is that really what were are calling it now? Clicky!? Really!?"Zac replied.

Clicky started morphing his arms into something while a bunch of loud groans and squeaks came from his gears. His arms turned out to be a big drill. With a GROACKWL, Clicky proceeded to start drilling through the wall in front of us.

Jake answered Zac's question. "You're just jealous of Clicky's epicness..."

We followed clicky through the tunnel he was making. He kept going forward and occasionally went up and down to create steps for us to get higher. He kept going until we reached the surface. Unfortunately the surface was in the middle of a bust Detroit street.

Clicky reached the top and sprouted out arms from his sides. The arms transformed into two huge walls. He placed the walls on the street right in the middle of traffic, blocking out the cars. The walls created a clear path to the other side of the street. While we were walking through cars honked like crazy. Maybe they thought a bunch of traffic cones were laid or something.

When we got to the other side of the street, Clicky sucked up the walls back into his sides. Then his little wings protruded into longer, stronger wings. Clicky started to fly up. He flew up higher and higher until we couldn't see him anymore. All we could hear was his clicking.

Felix pulled out a big hammer from his hammer, and I wondered how it fit in there... He started swirling it around above his head. I thought maybe he was going to let go at the last second and fly himself up like Thor, but the hammer shot out a bunch of strong looking strings. The strings wrapped around the feet of Clicky, and Felix was pulled up. We hopped on Griff and flew up with them.

When we caught up with Clicky and Felix, they were hovering in front of a window on building. Whoever was in there must have been pretty freaked out...or maybe they just saw a window cleaner...

Then, out of nowhere, a huge ball of fire comes shooting out of the window right at Griff. Griff easily blocked it with Jake at control, but the fire kept coming. Griff became irritated and began screaming sound waves right at the window with the attacker.

"Wow! I did'nt know you could do that!" Jake shouted while plugging his ears from the sound.

The wall was torn right off of the building to reveal a man wearing a black hoodie over his face.

"I'll show you for jacking with my wall! That one was my favorite...." The man said.

He hurled more flames at us. This time it hit Griff leaving him no choice but to let out one more screech as he flew out of the sky with us on his back. The waves caused the hood to flip off of the man's face. I suddenly recognized him.

Griff flew back up to the window while the man started to charge up a huge fire ball.

"STOP!!!" I shouted. "I KNOW YOU!!!"

"PROVE IT!!!" he shouted back.

I grabbed Clicky from the air and let Felix hop on Griff.

"Heads up, Hot Stuff!!!" I said as I tossed him Clicky.

He caught him and then looked back up at us in shock.

"Oh, gods...Is it time already?" he responded.

"Who is that, Tatar!?" Jake asked me.

The man responded with, "I'm your uncle Leo!"
