Chereads / The Valkri / Chapter 10 - Chapter Ten

Chapter 10 - Chapter Ten

At sky high.

Kai is being rushed to a hospital on a stretcher as Nathans and Stephanie runs along by his side.

" Get him to the operating room now!, He has a weak pulse... " A doctor screams from afar as she runs along trying to get into the room.

" What!? " Stephanie cries out towards the nurse.

" Please ma'am, you have to remain here and let us do our job. " A nurse says as she closes the curtain demarcating them.

Stephanie cries out more as Nathans draws closer to her hugging her tight.

Gabriel walks into the hospital scanning through it as he sees Stephanie seated with Nathans from afar. He walks towards them.

" Can I have a word with you for a sec. " He said looking at Stephanie in the eye.

" Look Gabriel, I'm really having a rough time now.... "

" Would you please just come with me and stop with all this. " He lashed out as Nathans tries standing up to defend her.

" It's okay Nathans, let me handle this ", she stands up to follow Gabriel.

They walked until they finally stopped at a place.

" What the bloody hell do you want ", she shrieked out.

" Will you cut the bullshit altitude ", he said trying to raise his voice.

" You and I both know that whatever skim your playing at? Wont work. " He says pointing his finger at her.

" I mean, of all the guys in this bloody  school, it has to be with that thing over there?. " His breathing increased now.

Tears fills her eyes.

" That thing your referring to is in there fighting for his life. " She says as she cleans the tears that fell from her eyes.

" Oh! Stephanie, when will you finally realise that Kai is a nobody, his death will surely do everyone a favour. At least every one can finally sleep with their eyes shut.

She stares at Gabriel with so much hate and disgust.

" I see the confusion here that gives you the right to walk up to me and pour all this filthy words on me... You know what?. " She pauses removing a ring from her finger.

" It is clearly over between us. "

She throws the ring at him and tries walking out but he grabs her by the hand.

" You dare not walk out on me ". He angrily said.

Her eyes grew white as she blasts him down to the floor forcefully.

" Don't you dare!, Touch me again. " She sniffes and walks out cleaning the tears in her eyes.

At the operating room.

" We're loosing him! " The doctor yelled out as she gives out orders specifically.

" Clear... " A nurse shocks his chest with an electric iron.

" There's still no change ma'am... "

The EMR begins to read heart failure as the line runs all the way straight.

The doctor steps back in disbelief.

" We lost him... " Tears filled her eyes.

Stephanie stands up as she sees the doctor stepping out from the operating room.

" How's he?." She asked hoping to hear something nice but her face changes as she sees the reaction of the doctor.

" I said how's kai!!. " She lashed out as she grabs the coat of the doctor.

Nathans drags her down.

" I'm sorry miss but we tried everything possible. He couldn't make it. " She genuinely said.

Stephanie looks at her in a shocked state.

" It can't be, she's lying, she has to be lying... "

She cries out as she runs into the operating room with the nurses trying to stop her. She suddenly gasps as she sees the piece of clothe lying over Kai's head.

Nathans runs in to and sees the dead body as he steps back in disbelief.

" It can't be... He cannot be dead. " He thought, as he recalls the words Mr. Moon told.

Stephanie covers her mouth as she cries through it. She walks slowly to him bringing down the clothe covering his face as she holds his hands." Kai!, Wake up, please! " Tears filled her eyes as it rolled down her cheeks.

" You cannot be dead, please wake up, we promise to fight all this together. You can't just leave me here, wake up kai wake up!!!! " She screams as she cries loudly.

Nathans looks at Kai in disbelief, frowns his face and walks out.

" Kaiii!!!! " She angrily hits my chest with her glowing hand which led to a great outrush of an orange aura which circles around me and begins to enter into me back with a great amount of force causing the light bulbs to flick. My eyes suddenly becomes black and opens.

*****

I suddenly woke up in a strange land, looking left and right slowly, I saw the weird grasses and flowers growing in my midst and around the small set of houses which I presumed to be a village. I stood up and saw the happiness that hovered the place... The way the kids ran, pursuing each other. I walked around and noticed the shouts of a woman who I presumed to be in labour till to the several mid wives rushing into the the little house.

" It's a boy! " One of them yelled as she brought out the baby and handed it over to the presumed father who bared the same dragon tattoo the child had around his chest.

He smiles as he stared into the little boy's eyes.

The earth began vibrating as I slowly stared up and saw an object heading right to the village. I tried alerting them but they couldn't see me or feel my presence. Then it landed, unleashing a strange force around.

Immediately, the image I saw vanished away as I wondered where it went.

" Kai Logan ". A voice whispers as it creeped the hell out of me.

" Who's there?! " I shook as I stepped back slowly till I stepped on something that squinched.

I stopped, breathing so deeply and loudly that I slowly turned back and saw a being smiling right back at me as I fell to the ground screaming.

It walks closer to me as I crawled backwards. I couldn't feel my feet due to the fear gripping me at that moment.

" What do you want from me? " I cried out.

" You do not know who you are, not knowing the potentials of your abilities. Your destiny has been written a long long time ago. " It drew closer and drags me up by my shirt. " If only your father knew what he had, he wouldn't had died and given such powers to you! " He pushed me down as my butt hurts.

Immediately, images of the past began reappearing.

" We need to get out of here now! " The man with the tattoo said as he rushes into the room his wife lays.

The screams and shouts continued as they slipped through the back of the tent hoping to move out quietly.

I watched as the screams increased as a beast the size of a man slays all of them without heist. Tears began rolling off my eyes as I looked round.

" He was a coward! " The being screamed as he looked at me.

" Why showing me all this?! " I cried out as I turned towards him.

" Because you are denying yourself the truth on who you truely are... " It waves it's hands as the images changes with beast teleporting in their presence.

" The king of this doomed village sneaks out from his own people who he sworn to protect. " It walks towards them as he cleans it's claws.

" Leave my family out from this. " The man said as he draws away from his wife who was now hiding behind a rock. The same rock I always see myself hiding away in my dreams..

" Where is it and believe me, I'm in no mood to joke around so tell me, where the fuck is the power source!. " It grunts loudly towards him.

" We know nothing you speak of. "

" Then they both die!! " It angrily shouted as it raises them up with a force crushing his wife's bones along with the baby's.

He stares as his wife and child with tears in his eyes. He angrily turns towards the beast, the tattoo he bears began flooding with orange stuff as his eyes turns orange.

" You get your filthy hands off them now! " A great amount of force began building up around him as lightening bolts strikes his body causing him raise up.

The beast looks at him in disbelief.

" It's been in you this whole time... " It says as it's eyes turns red.

" Aarrrrhhhhh! " He claps his hands towards the beast as the lightening bolts rushes towards it and strikes it.

The beast crashes on a tree wounded.

The man lands gently and runs to his wife and child.

" You okay? " He asked as she nods her head shaking with fear.

He stares at his boy and touches his tattoo.

" My powers shall you have, " an orange light emits from his hands as it glows on the child's body. " You shall be hidden away from such powers not knowing about it till you are old enough to handle it's might. This I pass to you. " The whole place becomes so bright as his powers enters the child's.

" What have you done?. " The beast angrily says.

The man stands up letting go of his wife's hand " I love you " he whispers towards her and folds his fist.

" You are not worthy of such power, it will only consume you from within. " He moves forward towards the beast slowly.

" Now I have to get it all out from the child!. " It shouted.

" You will do no such thing. " The man runs towards the beast in great speed. It grabs him by the neck crushing his bones as he struggles to let go.

His wife covers her mouth trying not to let out of the cry.

He looks at his wife with tears falling from his eyes.

" Find our son before the power In him consumes him all. "

It immediately stabs his chest with it's hands and throws the body down with the wife screaming in trauma.

" Dad!!!! " I screamed as I fell on my kneels.

It looks at her and tries going towards her but a force blocks it from entering. The child's eyes turns orange as it began glowing with the mother.

" Nooo! " It screams as he hits the forcefield.

They suddenly vanish into thin air.

I didn't know what I was feeling. A kind of anger I've never felt before. A revenge kind.

" Why did he have to die! " I yelled at the being standing before me.

" Because he was a weakly just like you've been all this while. " It stared at me with anger. " He had to give a useless being like yourself a power too powerful no one could comprehend except the gods. What you have within you is god-like power, and you are not worthy to yield it. " It rushes towards me and grabs me by the neck.

" Who are you? " Was all that managed from my mouth as I felt life leaving me.

" I am a part of you. " It pauses. " Your nemesis. " The being suddenly changes to look just like me with its eyes glowing orange. " Very soon, when your gone. The world will bow to my feet as I wipe them off, one by one, till the last god is slayed. Then and only then shall I build my own empire of beings who shall worship me and take me as their supreme. With no one to try and stop me cos I will be invincible. " It tightens it's grip on me as I struggle to let go but couldn't.
