Chapter 4 - Unexpected
Aaron's Pov
the next day, i was laying down on my bed wondering if that jester girl was actually the hex girl. I heard ava said she never left the spooky hollow. She looked kinda bad but when she performed in the joustum, it was totally epic. She seems to be having fun instead of making mischief. I touched my helmet and asked myself, "Did she come all this way? just to give back my helmet. If i ever see her again, i'll ask her directly....." I was about to get up when i heard the alarm. as I head to the operating room.
Merlock 2.0 announced,"Alert alert jestro and his monster are attacking the Taleo Village"
Clay said, "Ok knights gear up time to save the village."
(Taleo Village is located on the top cliff, below where the Spooky Hollow is)
As we arrive in Taleo Village, We spring into action and attack the monsters. Jestro who was in his Evil Fort always kept on pillaging and destroying village, even summoning monsters. I defended the people who tried to run away from the monsters. I shot a couple of globlins and scurriers. When we were in a pinch, MErlock sends some Nexo Powers to power up our shields and weapons.
"Merlock, Nexo Knight." I shouted as i raised my shield as the nexo powers boosted. We defeated the monsters easily. It was no big deal, I was about fly down to finish the monster when i didn't know i was attacked from behind. The one called Burnzie just tossed one globlin at my armor, knocking me off the shield as i fell below into the dark forest.
Jestro's POV
"Those knights always get in my way" I said, fummed in anger.
BoM (book of monsters) said, "Hey they always does."
I looked up to Aaron was on the sky soaring as he kept shooting at my globlins. I stared at him and he was extremely annoying the way he glide through the air looking cool and stuff. Then i notice he stopped there who was close to the edge. I thought of a evil idea, I turned to burnzie and ordered, "Burnzie, Aim at him while he was distracted."
BoM asked, "What you planning? joke boy" "Oh you'll see." I snickered.
Burnzie picked up the globlin and aim it at his armor which knocked him off and fell off to where the dark forest. BoM turned to me and gave me a evil smile, "Oh your bad, really bad." We laughed evilly as left the village
Clay's Pov
While i was focusing on defeating all the monsters, I saw Burnzie tossed the globlin at Aaron which knocked him off his shield. I watched as he fell into the dark forest, along with the fallen shield. I run towards the edge and couldn't see aaron. I turned to Jestro as he left in his Evil Fort, the knights run towards me.
Lance said, "that's takes care of that. OUr work is done."
Macy asked, "wait where's aaron?" the three knights looked around and notice aaron wasn't there.
I turned to them, "Guys, Aaron was hit by the monster and he fell into the forest. WE got to find him."
They were surprised by the fact we nodded as we head back to Fortrex when we were stop by one of the villager, a lady.
Lady said, " thank you for saving our village."
I said, "it was our job but right now we have a friend to find who just fell off into the dark forest"
lady eye's widened with worry and said, "Oh no....he must have fallen into Spooky Hollow. the territory of the Hex Girl. It's dangerous, no one has ever left the Hollow. If he ecnounter the hex girl, he'll be cursed."
Macy said, "Clay we gotta find him quickly before that happens."
I nodded as we head back into the Fortrex and tell Ava to take us to the Spooky Hollow. I hope we find him on tome.
Aaron's pov
I woke up and it was a good thing a bunch of vines save me from my fall. I got up as i searched for my weapon and my hovershield. I saw my hovershield was damaged cause by the crashed. "Oh man so much for flying." I said.
rustle rustle
I heard something as i looked around wondering what it was. I grabbed my weapon and my broken shield. I peered over the bushes when something came out which turned out to be some kind of mist black creature floating in front of me. "Woah, is that a .....monster? THat one looks new." I said with a unsure look. I examined the black creature and it looks different from the lava monsters. It looked at me and it was snickering, it wasn't doing anything so i was about to leave. Another appeared then another, I stood there where black creatures as they started to swirl around me. I knew they're trying to engulf me in darkness. I shot at them which caused one of them to disappeared. I knew it affect them so i started shooting them but they were kinda sneaky and manage to took my crossbow.
I escape which cause those black creatures to chase after me. I passed through the forest hoping they won't catch me when i fell into a bog which is kinda stinky and muddy.
I thrust myself out of the bog and reached the land. I looked up to see a strange flower, all of a sudden it spurted at me with dust. I coughed and felt my body is numb. I fell on the ground and couldn't feel my hands, i saw the black creatures manage to catch up wtih me. They stared at me like they finally caught me then they surround me in darkness. I try to keep myself awake but my eyes are getting sleepy as i closed them.
MInx 's POV
Yesterday was kinda blast but that was only one time. I told Eden about what happpen and man she was so shocked then freaked out. I wanted to stay in the village for long but it was kinda fun when it lasted since i gave back the green helmet. I was in the Spooky Hollow sitting on a like i always do. I strung my guitar to amused myself.
La da da da da
I'm gonna bury you in the ground
La da da da da
I'm gonna bury you with my sound
I'm gonna drink the souls
From your pretty neat face
I'm gonna...whatever
(guitar instrumental)
Sorry I don't treat him like a king
Is that what them want me to do
Sorry I don't treat you like you're perfect
Like all those little loyal subjects do
Sorry I'm not made of sweetness
Am I not nice enough for you?
Is that why they always avoid me?
That must be such an inconvenience to them, well
I'm just your problem
I'm just your problem
It's like I'm not even a person, am I?
I'm just your problem
Well, I shouldn't have to justify what I do
I shouldn't have to prove anything to you
I'm sorry that I exist
I forgot what landed me on your blacklist
But I shouldn't have to be the one that makes up with you, so
Why do I want to?
Why do I want to?
Even when I
I'm just your problem, I know
I'm just your problem, yeah
(guitar instrumental)
I'm just your problem
I'm just your problem
It's like I'm not even a person, am I?
I'm just your problem, so
Why do I want to?
Why do I want to make up with you?
It's all so pointless, because
I'm just your problem
I was about to leave when i saw big black ball came floating towards me. I groaned and i knew what it was; Gloomies. My mom taught me how to create nightmarens, somehow i manage to create nightmaren glooms or gloomies for short. They're very naughty and luvs to scare everyone but sometimes they abduct them for personal jokes. "Gloomies, I told you not to abduct a villager in the forest. Your suppose to scare them out of the forest, not bring it here. ugh, ok what you got there." I said.
they looked at me as they released a person who was caught by gloomies was dropped on the ground. I facepalmed and told them to be gentle, they may be useful but not very bright and they don't talk just hisses. I also notice they dropped a weapon and a damaged shield. 'where have seen that shield somewhere before?'
I examined the person when eye's widened as i recognized the green knight. "What the--? that's...aaron fox wha...what is he doing here?" I turned to the gloomies as they explained evrything to me. After that, i touched the dust and examined the smell since i'm immune to any poison. "That's the smell of puffer plant from the Boggy Swamp. I guess he must be paralyze and can't move, it's a good thing it's non-fatal. What kind of knight would run through the forest who has no sense of direction?" I said.
I was angry at first but feel kinda bad for the knight, even the gloomies felt it too. I may be a hex girl who looks like a bad girl but inside i'm a good witch. I wanted to leave but i can't just leave green knight in the middle of the hollow. He seems rather cool when you look at it, he needs an antidote and it was back in the castle however she knew she wasn't allow to bring a stranger in her home. I gave a regret face and command, "I hate to regret this but gloomies carry him. We're going to bring him into the castle. Beside, he needs a medical attention." They did what they were told as they lifted aaron and carrying him. I looked down to see a crossbow and a broken shield as i sighed and carried the broken shield. As for the crossbow, it's best i leave it so that he is completely defenseless. I whirled around and waked back to the castle along with an unexpected guest.
Macy's POV
We arrive at the Spooky Hollow and Clay ordered us to searched for our friend. The villagers back in Kolan Village told us we must'nt go further but we couldn't leave a fellow knight. While we were searching, I try looking thorugh it when i tripped over something. I picked up to see Aaron's crossbow as i run back to the knights.
"Clay, I found his crossbow but no sign of Aaron." I said with worry
"We mustn't give up keep searching." Clay said.
After through searching and still no sign of Aaron, We went back inside if Ava has aaron's signal but couldn't track his signal. we lowered our heads that no luck finding him. I notice Clay gave a sad expression, i went over to him.
"We got to find him....i know he's out there." Clay said who was holding aaron's crossbow.
I placed my hand on his shoulder and encourage, "Don't worry, we'll find him and we will. I just hope he's ok.
