Devoid of Faith - Continued
Chronos sat at his campfire and reviewed
his mission over and over in his head.
"Find Hawk, kill him, bring his body to
me," said his commanding officer before Chronos had left for the mission.
Chronos had no doubt his mission would be complete. He had killed thousands of innocent people for
the smallest tasks, and he wasn't about to change such a successful method
now. Chronos had no doubts this mission would be a success. He decided it
was time to practice and stood up. His wings unfolded behind his back and
stretched out to their longest length. From tip to tip the demon black wings
ran 7ft. 6inches. He stretched his arms out, picked up his 2 Katana Blades
and in a blink of the eye he was soaring 150ft. above the ground. For a
while he soared, practicing fighting techniques and combat skills, which he
knew he would need in the upcoming battles. As he flew along, he spotted a
young couple riding horse back through the forest. Fearful that they may
spot him or find his campsite he flew down. He folded his massive wingspan
in and put his overcoat to hide them and hid his blades in his coat. He
stepped out to where the couple could see him.
"HALT!" he yelled, "What
right of passage do you have in my land," he declared.
"This is not you
land!" declared the man, "This is my father's land, and you are the one that
has no right here! Leave at once or I shall be forced to take action!"
"I
have no time for your petty attempts at bravery fool." Chronos replied, "You
have 5 seconds to turn around and leave or I shall kill you both."
"Henry,
please do what he says, lets just go, and not cause trouble. We can get some
more men and come back here."
"NO Elizabeth!" Henry snapped, "I can handle
him, look at him, he's not even armed."
"I'm counting now," Chronos said, "5
4 3 2"
"STOP!" Shouted Henry, "I am going to give you one last chance,
leave, or die."
"Oh, no my friend, it is you that is going to die." Chronos
replied. Chronos took off his coat and pulled out his blades, he spread out
his wings and hovered 8ft. off the ground.
"N...N...No... No, you're a part
of Raven aren't you, I've heard about you people, you have no mercy for any
living thing. Oh my god! I'm going to die," Henry realized, "Please sir please
don't kill me, please."
"Shut Up Coward!" Chronos snapped, and before Henry
knew what happened, Chronos attacked, at first all he felt was the pressure
of the sword going in, no pain just pressure. Chronos waited just long
enough, and pulled the sword out, immediately swung around and took the
humans head clean off.
"Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!" Elizabeth screamed. It
startled Chronos but only for a second. Soon she was dead also. Chronos
checked them for anything and only found 20 copper pieces between them. He
took it and headed back for his camp, he gathered his things and took to the
sky.
He put his hand on his amulet and uttered the words
"Show me the way." The amulet glowed and Chronos took off, towards
Hawk, towards the town of Lyman.
**************************
Hawk glanced into the night sky with
the feeling of freeness. The cold night air blew in his face as he
looked into the space. The stars were like hundreds of fireflies
standing still in the blackness of the sky. Rinoa was hugging him
hard as she continued sleeping. He looked toward Lyman, the place
they had spent 10 hours looking for. Its small lights could be seen
in the distant like signal lights.
"How long has it been since we were last in Lyman?"
asked Spike.
"Too long Spike, too long," he said.
He tried to remember Mystica, how much she must have grown. It had
been almost 11 years since they last met. He was forced to leave the
village because of the Raven. He tried to think of what she now looked
like but stopped. Spike was getting ready to land in the city. He put
out his enormous wings as he placed his feet about 100 feet from the
town gate. He snorted; firing coming out of his nose as Hawk got up.
He put Rinoa in his arms lifting up her small body. Spike got down on
his belly, lowering himself so Hawk could get down.
Spike, get back to normal size before
you give someone a heart attack," he said. The gold plated dragon began
to shrink to his normal size. Hawk looked up at a large clock tower.
The time was 12:00a.m. He began to walk to the city gates as a rock
hit the ground in front of him. Startling him he went into full attack
mode. He drew his sword and spun around to see who it was.
"Is that you Hawk?" A dark figure walked
out of the bushes standing next to a tree. Hawk held his sword higher
waiting for the time to attack. He dropped his sword to the ground.
"It has been a long time, Mystica," he said.
"Meet me at Greyson Mansion tomorrow,"
she said. The figure disappeared as Hawk picked up his sword and put
it back in its sheath.
