Chapter Ten "Sheep and Wolves"

It’s been two weeks since my life changed. It’s been hard but I’ve managed, all of us have. Who would of ever thought a simple boy like me would be thrust into a world I didn’t know existed in my own world. Sometimes I wake up and I wonder if this will all still be happening. The other day I was eating breakfast and the back of my neck tingled, all my hairs stood up, it was an odd sensation. Kind of like the one I got when this all happened, but stronger. It doesn’t hurt but it’s a funny tickling sensation, as if someone was talking about me at that moment and I felt it. Well now I’m out of the White Coats base and I don’t know why I’m here, it’s crazy because I’ve never done this before.
Me
Bless me father for I have sinned, this is my first confession
Father Bob
What sin could you have committed my son that would bring you to the chapel at this time of night?
Me
Not what I’ve done, but what I’ve allowed to happen
Father Bob
I’m afraid I am confused
Me
Is it a sin if someone dies because of me?
Father Bob
No, not if you were not aware of it happening
Me
Yeah, that’s what they told me
Father Bob
They? Who are they?
Me
No one, you wouldn’t understand
Father Bob
Please son do not belittle my intelligence
Me
I don’t father, but before two weeks ago, I wouldn’t have understood either
Father Bob
Are you okay young one?
Me
More then okay, for the first time in my life, I feel like I’m free, and the sky is my home.
Father Bob
Will this be all for tonight?
Me
Father, do you believe in angels?
Father Bob
Well, of course I do, my religion leads me to believing in such things. I must admit at times it gets a little hard to believe in such things without seeing them, but I believe in my faith
Me
You’d like to see one?
Father Bob
Before I died, yes
Me
Seeing is believing
Arkain walked out of the little chapel with his wings extended.
Father Bob
Where are you-
He saw them and was dumbstruck
Father Bob
Oh my god
He fell to the ground and then there were claps that echoed through the church, but they were not from father Bob.
Big figure
Well I see you like to inspire good in some, oh where are me manners, the names Malic, nice to bloody meet you
Who the fuck is he? Wow this dude is huge, with a big ugly brown coat and a giant hammer on his back and an English accent. Father Bob ran away, who could blame him.
Malic
You going to introduce yerslef or what mate?
Me
Don’t act like you don’t know who I am
Malic
Ah ya got me cunt, we all know who you and yer litto mates are. I and many others have been hired to kill ya all.
Me
I suppose
Malic
Why don’t you just make this quick so I can go home and rest will ya?
Me
Did you really think I’d come here alone?
A white tiger named Masato walked out behind me and stood next to me.
Masato
You should go Malic
Malic
Holy hell is it you Masato? Long time no see ya bloody bastard! Is the rest of the WAM here then?
An orange cat named Bonka walked on the tip of the pews
Bonka
Hello Malic, haven’t showered since we last met I see
Malic
Right you are ma dear
Malic
Now where are Merdos, Espy, Dynobin, Esuik, and Merda?
Bonka
They have other missions to attend to
Malic
Aw man I was hoping we could have a litto reunion is all
Masato
We knew you’d be coming tonight
Malic
Oh really? A litto spy you all got in the Regime then
Bonka
What does it matter, you die tonight old friend
Wow the little cat was straight to the point
Malic
And who is going to kill me?
Me
Us
Malic
Us?
An arrow hit him in the shoulder
Malic
Bloody hell what was that for?
Oswaldo
Your left arm is out of service
He tried to move his arm but no good
Malic
What bloody good aim ya got there ya litto wanker!
He laughed
Malic
I got good aim to
Faster then you would of thought he could, he grab his giant hammer and lunged it at Oswaldo, he had no time to move, it was going to collide with him. It fell to the ground in front of Oswaldo.
Malic
What the fuck?
Amara
Your welcome Waldo
Oswaldo
Thanks
Malic
The little girl can make shields? Oh what a team ya got here Masato.
Masato
That isn’t all we hold, this is just three of the children
His hammer flew back to him
Malic
Well then, let’s have some fun then
He began to spin around with his hammer and then he released it, it spun so fast it looked like a fan. I dodged it by going into the air, Oswaldo easily moved and Amara stopped it.
Malic
This is awesome
He ran towards Amara
Malic
Try and stop me now
His shoulder collided with her and she flew into the wall behind her. Did she even put up a shield?
Malic
Your little shield can't protect ya against me darling. I can’t be stopped, I am an unstoppable force. You would have thought your master would have told ya, guess they overestimated you.
He laughed and ran towards Oswaldo
Malic
What good are yer arrows boy if they can’t hurt me
Another collision and Oswaldo was on the ground. I guess this isn’t those super hero movies we read about and watched where the heroes are always winning
Malic
One more
Suddenly Adonis appeared scratching and biting Malic
Malic
Stupid animal
Then a giant white bear came through the doors behind Malic and ran towards him
Malic
You fuckers never give up do ya?
He socked them both to the ground, Adonis became a small little hawk and Hema became a little white ferret.
Malic
You idiots can’t stop me with physical attacks-
Black walls began to form around him and began to close in on him
Malic
How exciting, dancing pudding!
His hammer destroyed the black walls
Malic
More please more!
Ilias jumped down in front of Malic with a sword in hand
Ilias
My turn
Malic
Jolly ho!
That’s my cue as well, I draw my sword
Malic
Come on angel boy, you want some to!
Stupid ape!
Malic
I haven’t had this much fun since I fought Masato and Merdos at the same time!
Ilias got him in the stomach, but the sword shattered, Ilias was socked in the face and he fell to the ground
Malic
Sleeping in Gods house? We can’t have that
He kicked Ilias and he flew across the floor
Me
You dickhead!
Malic
What’s wrong? Was that yer boyfriend?
He kicked Arkain in the stomach and he fell to his back
Malic
Come on, you got to have more to offer
Iris
Stop, please
Malic
What?
He turned around. There stood Iris with two wolves.
Iris
I don’t want to hurt you sir
Malic
Hurt me, your friends couldn’t, what makes you think a litto pearl like yerself can do that
He walked towards her
Iris
Please, I do not want anything to happen
Malic
Come on ya litto bitch
And then Suri’s fist connected with his face and he flew back towards the front door, he fell on his back.
Malic
What the hell?
He wiped his mouth as blood seeped through his lips.
Malic
How did that happen?
Suri
She stopped you from using your protective abilities
Masato
Now you are defeated Malic, you are coming with us
There was a roar, like from a big cat
Malic
Well, looks like me mums calling me home, see you at the white-
From the black night behind him a panthers face appeared and sunk his teeth into Malic’s shoulder
Malic
Oh shit
He was dragged outside into the night and there was more clapping. A figure in a black cloak walked into the church
Cloaked figure
You know, I was never a man of God, but to fight in a church is not very classy
Masato
Children, get behind me!
I picked up Ilias and we all ran behind him, what is Masato afraid of?
Cloaked figure
Aw what is wrong Masato? I wanted to play with the kids to
Bonka
Shut up monster!
Cloaked Figure
Oh well look what we have here, Bonka to, last time I seen you was when I was battling every member of the WAM at the same time.
Did he say every member of WAM at the same time? Who the fuck is he?
Bonka
How about we do that again, it won’t be as easy the second time around Glado
Glado, he is one of the leaders of the Shadow Regime
Glado
Smart and witty, the name of magician is quite befitting. How about I just kill you now Bonka? You and Masato, how devastating would that be for the White Coats.
Masato
Glado, walk away from this fight
Glado
I’ve never been one to walk away, neither has the Regime. We are moving stronger and stronger everyday, the white coats fear us, the humans are oblivious to us, and even the clouds above are watching us.
He lowered his hood, he was young. His hair blond and his eyes blue.
Glado
I must admit however, your children are smarter then I expected, the lady we killed did not bring her son to us.
Me
That was my mother!
Masato
NO!
Glado
Good boy, playing into my trap
I want to kill him! How dare he say that shit!
Glado
You want to hurt me boy? So then do it if you’re so powerful. No, I didn’t think so. You see, all you dogs love to bark at strangers, but when it comes down to it, you’re a tad bit to afraid to actually bite. But you’re no dog, and I’m no mailman. You’ve entered a realm where wolves eat sheep, Your just a sheep little Arkain.
Bonka
Don’t listen to his words Arkain!
Masato
I’m done with talking
Glado
That’s great, I am to.
His eyes glowed red
Masato
GO!
Glado was like a walking bomb. His explosion devoured the entire church. When the smoke cleared Glado noticed they all were gone.
Glado
Master is not going to be happy with this, no not at all.
