Prologue
My POV~
I was driving through the forest, alone. I was quite angry when I came here. In fact, I was dangerously close to transforming into a hideous dragon. Those whores Brody and Violet are always trying to seduce me, even though they know damn well that I'm not interested.
*Flashback*
I was heading for my room to watch some YouTube videos on my laptop. And I was in the mood for some Good Mythical Morning. Rhett and Link always do crazy things that make me laugh. Like the time they used peanut butter to make some nasty foods taste better in sandwiches. Link used it with lettuce and tomatoes, which he called a PBLT. Rhett on the other hand had a PB and B. The other "B" was for blood. The blood they use is congealed pork blood. Link was able to eat a bite of his sandwich, but Rhett wasn't so lucky. And I always laughed when Rhett starts retching after the first bite of his sandwich.
I open the door, and much to my surprise, Brody was lying in my bed, and that slut was stark naked.
"Hello Garath. It's so nice of you to join us." She said seductively.
I look over my shoulder, and I see a completely naked Violet waltzing up behind me, rubbing her tits.
"Come and lie with us, love. Let us have some fun." She said lustfully, as she wrapped her arms around my neck and pressed her breasts against my shoulder blades.
I pulled away and stormed over to my weapon cases. I grabbed my gold tiger striped IMI/Magnum Research Desert Eagle Mark XIX, which I had endearingly named Diana Prince, and headed for the garage. Brody and Violet put on their clothes and ran after me, but I was already in my car, pulling out of the garage. I was tired of those two whores trying to have sex with me. I'm not interested in either of them. The girls ran out in front of my car, forcing me to stop.
"Garath, please!" Brody called.
"Come back!" Violet shouted.
I unbuckled my belt and climbed out of my car, looking at them with a serious death glare.
"No. I'm not interested in either of you whores." I said.
I looked at Violet, still glaring.
"So unless you've got a death wish, you and that little parasite better get moving!" I screamed angrily.
This immediately sent the girls running back inside.
With the sluts gone, I got back into my car, buckled up and continued driving through the gate. I headed off into the woods where it was much easier for me to calm down. I decided to head for the nearby lake to go swimming. Luckily, I already had my swim trunks and towel in the trunk.
"I swear, those two girls are begging for a beating. I'm tired of them constantly gettin' naked and trying to entice me." I said angrily.
*Flashback ends*
Some ways down the road, another car zoomed by and it looked like the driver was in a hurry.
I looked into my rearview mirror, and noticed a herd of walkers following behind. I quickly pushed my foot onto the accelerator and sped after the survivors, hoping to save them.
Just as I got close enough to see the driver, the car hit a rock and was sent flying. The car landed on its roof, and both people inside were injured.
I pulled over, and went to my passenger's side door to lower the seat. After the passenger's seat was lowered, I ran to the car that was flipped over. The driver was a young lady who seemed to be the same age as me. I looked in the backseat, and saw a five year old boy who was unconscious. He suffered minor bruises, but the girl had a gash on her head.
I ran to the boy's side and opened the door. Then I quickly unbuckled his seatbelt and pulled him out of the car.
"No! Please, don't take him!" The girl said before passing out.
"It's okay ma'am. I'm gonna get you out of there. I know a place where you'll be safe. So just hang tight." I replied
I carried the boy to my Aston Martin and put him into the backseat where I buckled him up. After that, I put the seat back where it was and ran back to the wreck. Once I came to the driver's side, I ripped the door off its hinges. As soon as the door was gone, I unbuckled the lady's seatbelt and carried her to the passenger's side of my own car. After buckling her in, I shut the door. Looking back at the walkers, I had an idea.
I ran to my driver's side door, climbed into my car and floored the accelerator.
As we started moving, I opened the sunroof and pulled out my golden tiger striped Desert Eagle.
"Activate Autodrive. Ericson's Boarding School." I said
"Autodrive engaged." My car's onboard computer acknowledged
"Roger that. And close the sunroof as soon as I get outside. I'm gonna see if I can take care of those walkers." I replied
"Understood." The computer said
With these words, I climbed up on to the top of my driver's side door, and waited until the sunroof was closed.
As soon as the sunroof was closed, I made my way onto it and pointed my gun at the walkers.
I began shooting the walkers with deadeye accuracy.
Not a single shot missed. Soon, the herd was no more. I pulled a set of spare keys out of my pocket.
I quickly pushed a button that showed an open door. The driver's side door opened and the seat was brought outside by a mechanical arm.
Seizing my chance, I jumped into the seat and the arm brought me back into my car.
The seat was locked back into place and the door shut itself.
Clementine's POV~
I woke up after a few moments. My head was pounding.
*groans* "Where am I?" I asked.
Looking around, I saw that I was in a completely different car, and it was being driven by a seventeen year old boy in black leather and sunglasses. Through the lenses of his shades, I could see his eyes, and they were a dashing blue. His sand-blonde hair was fashioned into a 50s Pompadour.
"Who are you, and where are you taking me?" I asked
"It's alright. I'm here to help you. I'm Garath. I come from a friendly group of survivors. You're hurt, and I'm gonna get you someplace safe." He answered
"Wait! Where's AJ?" I said in a panic
"Don't worry, he's in the backseat. I'm taking you to Ericson's Boarding School. You'll be safe there. AJ only suffered minor bruises, but you need medical attention pronto." Garath said.
Without another word, I decided to go back to sleep and rest.
'Garath looks quite handsome. I think I like him. I just hope I can trust him.' I thought.
Timeskip: Ericson's Boarding School
My POV~
I pulled up to Ericson's Boarding School and parked in the garage. I got out of my car and headed for the passenger's side. I carefully opened the door since the young lady was asleep.
"Hey. Wake up. We're here." I said as I gently shook her.
The girl woke up. She unbuckled herself and climbed out of my car. As soon as she was behind me, I lowered the seat and proceeded to unbuckle AJ and bring him out. While holding AJ, I lifted the seat back up until it clicked back into place and closed the door.
"Nice wheels. What kind of car is this?" The girl asked
"It's a 2006 Aston Martin DBS V12." I said
"Sweet. By the way, I never properly introduced myself. I'm Clementine, but you can call me Clem." The lady said
I led Clementine to the living quarters where I put AJ in Brody's room.
"Don't worry. Brody should be here shortly. I already left her a note, that way she knows that AJ needs his rest. She's one of the friendliest girls around here, so she'll take good care of him." I said
"Good to know." Clem replied
"Now come on. I need to get you to Violet's room. She's our medical expert, and should be able to take care of that gash on your head." I said.
With these words, I led Clem to a room with an uppercase "V" on the door. I knocked on the door and Violet opened it.
"Violet, this is Clementine, and she needs medical attention, right away. There's a gash on her head, but she doesn't have a concussion. So all she needs is a few stitches." I said.
"Come right in." Violet replied.
We all entered Violet's room, before she closed the door.
I took a needle from the medkit and filled it up with a liquid sedative.
"Don't worry Clem. This will only hurt for a second." I said.
"Wait, what is that stuff?" Clem asked
"It's okay. This isn't poison. It's just a sedative. It'll help you sleep. And it'll also numb your whole body for an hour, so you won't feel a thing while Violet patches up that gash on your head." I answered reassuringly.
"After I patch up that gash, you can share Garath's room." Violet replied
"Don't worry, I don't mind that at all." I added.
With that, I injected Clem with the sedatives and she immediately fell asleep. I carefully cleaned the gash on Clementine's head, so that it wouldn't get infected. In a few minutes, Violet successfully stitched the gash up.
After this was done, I picked Clem up bridal style and carried her to my own room where I gently laid her in my bed.
I felt plenty tired after a crazy morning. So I climbed under my sheets and curled up next to Clem.
Clementine's POV~
About an hour later, I woke up and saw that I was in a different room. In a corner, there were two guitars; one was a blue acoustic guitar, and the other was a red electric guitar. Next to them was an amplifier. There was a 60" wide flatscreen TV mounted above the dresser. One of the walls was covered in drawings of different cars and landscapes.
I looked to my right and saw that Garath was sleeping next to me. His arm was wrapped around me, and for a strange reason, I felt safe.
On his nightstand, was a laptop next to an LG Leon cellphone. His phone was in a gold case.
And on the left side of the room, I saw a row of trophy cases containing different weapons, and each one had a name that was carved in fine gold.
I quietly removed myself from Garath's grasp. He stirred a little, but he didn't wake up. I snuck over to the cases and looked at each weapon.
The first case had a 12 gauge Stoeger IGA 20" Coach Side by Side Shotgun. The nametag reads; Kara Zor-El.
The next case had a pair of Beretta M9A1 handguns. One of them was silver and the other was gold. The nametag said; Silver pistol- Pamela Lillian Isley, Gold pistol- Harleen Quinzel.
The third case had a gold tiger striped IMI/Magnum Research Desert Eagle Mark XIX. The nametag says; Diana Prince.
Next was a Smith & Wesson Model 29 Revolver with an 8 3/8" barrel. This pistol was named; Barbara Gordan.
Next up was an AK-47 with a lamented stock. This gun was called; Zatanna Zatara.
Next came a pair of heavily modified 1911 .45 ACP pistols, one was black and the other was white. The wooden grips of each one had a miniature portrait of a Victorian girl painted on it. The nametag said; Black pistol- Ebony, White pistol- Ivory.
The next weapon was a katana. The handgrip was white, the tsuba was gold, and the 1095 high carbon steel blade was reflective, like a mirror. There was a little red button on the handgrip. This sword was called; Rebellion.
The last weapon was another katana. But this one was different from the Rebellion. The handgrip was black and there was a dragon wrapped around it. The tsuba, dragon and metal around the handgrip were gold. This weapon was labeled; Selina Kyle.
'Whoa. Those are some very impressive weapons. Where did he get all these?' I thought
"See any weapon you like?" A familiar voice said.
I turned around and saw Garath standing there.
"Oh. I was just admiring these weapons. I've never seen any guns like them before. Let alone the swords." I answered.
"Well, I created most of those weapons with my own hands. I designed the guns to shoot lasers instead of bullets. And the best part is; they never have to be reloaded. That Stoeger Coach Gun by the way, is also known as a Boomstick. And that Smith & Wesson Model 29 revolver, is usually called a 44 Magnum. I also designed the Rebellion with the power to encrust its carbon steel blade with any element that is infused with the sword. It also has a hidden trick, which I would be happy to demonstrate if you wanna come watch me train. This particular trick gives the Rebellion a special blade that can cut through anything." Garath explained.
"You made these?" I asked
"I made the guns and Rebellion, yes. But the sword with the dragon is an ancient, holy weapon called the Dragon Katana. It was created from the light of good and was filled with the will of my father. And the Dragon Katana was a gift from my mother. It was strengthened by my mother's will during the time she wielded it. When she passed it on to me, my own will made it powerful enough to mortally wound any evil being." He said.
"Where is she?" I asked.
"Dead, along with my little sister Maggie. I don't know where my father is, nor if he's alive. My mother got infected when I was only 10 years old, while Maggie was torn to pieces. But before she turned, mother said that she wanted me to use it to protect those I love. I had to use it to put my own mother down in order to save her. When I meditated on the matter, I was approached by a trio of gods. They told me that despite what I did, I was worthy to wield the Dragon Katana. That's when my will was used to give the sword its power. I keep that, to honor my mother's last wish." Garath said sadly.
"Oh, Garath. I'm sorry to hear that. But don't worry, I'm sure you'll find love." I said, comforting him as I wrapped my arms around his neck.
"Come on. AJ's outside playing basketball with my friends." Garath said.
He led me outside where AJ was playing with some other kids.
"Clementine!" AJ screamed joyfully. He ran to me and hugged me.
I was happy to see AJ again. I looked up and noticed a boy walking towards me. He was accompanied by a pair of girls, and another young boy.
"Hi. My name's Louis. These are my friends; Brody, Violet, Tenn and Mitch." He said
"Nice to meet you all. I'm Clementine, but you can call me Clem. And this is AJ." I replied.
"Nice to meet you too." AJ said.
"Garath, you lucky boy. I think you just found your true love." Louis said. And he started laughing, as did the other kids.
At this, Garath immediately tensed up. He slowly turned his head to Louis, like a robot, and looked him in the eyes. Then he slowly tilted his head and raised his right eyebrow while lowering his left eyebrow.
If looks could kill, Louis and his friends would be dead.
Upon seeing the look on Garath's face, everyone's eyes widened and they backed away in fear.
"Know your role and shut your mouth, jabroni." He said sharply.
His sharp tone was enough to send chills down my spine. Then Garath walked away as he made his facial expression into a steely gaze. I noticed that he was headed for a building next to the school.
"Just curious, but, what was that look Garath just gave you?" I asked
"That was the People's Eyebrow. Made famous by Dwayne Johnson. Better known as The Rock." Mitch answered
"He's not so bad once you get to know him. No one knows why, but he's been dark and brooding for quite a while, however, deep down, he is a kind gentleman with a golden heart. But whatever you do, don't ever make Garath angry. You won't like him when he's angry. Trust me." Louis explained.
"Louis is right. I agitated him once, and paid the price." Mitch said, pointing to his right eye which was purple and swollen.
"He's a master of ten disciplines, and the one thing he likes more than anything else on Earth, is being left alone." Violet interjected
"So, everybody is afraid of him?" I asked
"Yes. One time, Marlon insulted Garath's mother, and it was not pretty. Every bone in his body was broken. He was lucky to still be able to talk. He's made a full recovery, but he took his previous injuries as a lesson; never get on Garath's bad side." Brody answered.
"Well, there might be something I can do. Maybe if I could somehow learn the reason behind his dark demeanour and mood swings, I may be able to help him." I said
"I sure hope so. But we're running low on food, and according to Garath, the only places left with plentiful supplies are outside of the safezone." Brody said.
"And Marlon sends only Garath on missions to get food out there. He offered to send one of us to assist, but Garath made it very clear that he's a lone wolf, and he can handle it on his own." Violet added
"It's true. Not only is he good at martial arts, but he's also a very sharp shooter. In fact, when he shoots at a target, he never misses." Mitch said
"We've also seen him use some very strange powers. He can control fire, ice and lightning. He can even infuse those elements with his sword, or even use them for unarmed attacks. The fire and lightning are purple. From what Garath told us, those are called Soul Fire and Dark Thunder. He can also project his own voice into something called a Thu'um which means Shout. These shouts have different powers. For example, Yol Toor Shul is a firebreath shout. Plus, he can summon a dragon spirit to support him in battle. Another thing he can summon, is a katana made of magma, and he knows how to use it." Tenn replied
"The dragon that Garath summons is his spirit guardian, and its name is Mushu." Brody said.
"But he has one last power at his command, and he prefers to use it as an absolute last resort." Louis said
"And what is that?" I asked
"He can transform into a dragon whenever he gets angry. But he uses it as a last resort because once in dragon form, he loses his memory and has only two things on his mind; fire and murder. Not only that, but while in dragon form, he can use firebreath without projecting his voice into a Thu'um. Which means, when Garath is in dragon form, he can use his firebreath in two different ways." Mitch answered
"We don't know how he got that particular power, but we believe its origins may hold the key to helping him open up. However, he doesn't like to talk about it. But maybe you can get him to reveal the origins of his power to transform into a dragon." Louis said.
"It won't be easy, but I will try. I may have only met Garath, but I like him. And I'm gonna do whatever it takes to help him." I replied
"Sounds good. AJ will be sleeping with me. But don't worry, he'll be fine. And in the meantime, you can share Garath's room." Brody said.
"I know. Garath said he doesn't mind. At least that will give me a chance at getting to know him." I replied
"That building next to the school is your best bet of where to find him. Garath built it by himself." Mitch said pointing at the building where Garath had gone.
"It's his own personal gym where he trains vigorously. One of the rooms contains technology that allows him to create a simulation where he can fight different kinds of enemies. He uses a different level to determine how tough he wants his opponents to be. Each level is used for different forms of training. Levels one to three are used for unarmed combat. Levels four to six are for swordfighting. Seven to nine are for marksman training. And the toughest level is ten. At level ten, he fights an evil version of himself and he has to use everything he's got, because his evil clone doesn't play fair, or alone. Come to think of it, that evil version of Garath is not the main opponent. In fact, that evil clone is only second-in-command. He takes orders from reincarnations of an old enemy. For levels one to nine, he can also choose how many enemies he has to fight. And on levels four to nine, all humanoid enemies will have weapons, but they don't use the same kind of weapons that Garath does. For example, each enemy would have different kinds of guns at level seven. But, there are other kinds of enemies he uses for training, and some of those modules include dinosaurs, and monsters from folklore and mythology. For those kinds of modules, the higher levels increase their aggression. The most common dinosaur modules he uses are Utahraptor and T-Rex. The main mythical monsters he fights are demons, dragons, giants, hellhounds, vampires and werewolves. He can also create simulations where he has to sneak around an environment, while silently killing bad guys. One of the other rooms contains the same kind of technology as the one he uses for his training, but this one is different. The simulations in there, are natural landscapes where Garath can meditate to find inner peace. The most common simulation he uses in that room, is a crystal clear lake under a waterfall in the Rocky Mountains. Occasionally, he'll also use it to go surfing in Hawaii, or even go fishing in different parts of the world." Louis explained.
"Wow. I didn't know he was an inventor." AJ said.
"What do you mean by, "an old enemy"? I asked.
"I mean someone Garath nearly vanquished many years ago. But you'll have to talk to him. Because if I told you who this old enemy was, I'd have my butt kicked in a heartbeat." Louis answered.
"He also uses that training room to train us how to fight when it is necessary. So that we can be as good as he is." Violet replied
"Next to his training room, is a music hall where Garath plays his guitars and sings." Brody said
"He can sing?" I asked
"Oh yes. He has a beautiful voice. You should listen to him sing some time. And across the hall from his music hall, is an art studio where he creates a lot of sweet drawings." Violet answered.
"The second to last room in that building is a blacklight laser tag arena. And believe me, it's pretty fun. But if you're gonna play laser tag with Garath, watch out. He's stealthy as a ninja, and he's also very smart. He always wears black clothing when he plays laser tag with us, which allows him to blend in.
Every time we walk right past his hiding spot, he ambushes us and before we know what happened, he takes off running like Usain Bolt and he's gone. But, he uses that laser tag arena to train himself, and us to be alert of our surroundings, while we also learn how to take our enemies by surprise." Mitch explains
"The last room in there, is a gaming room where everybody can play some cool video games. But instead of using a console, we are actually taken inside of the game itself, and the characters interact with us. It's like an adventure. One of the most common games we've seen Garath play, is called Super Hot." Louis said.
A/n: If you want to know what Super Hot is, go to YouTube and watch Jacksepticeye play it. Just type in "Jacksepticeye Super Hot", and you should see a couple of playlists of Sean Williams McLaughlin playing it. One of them shows Sean playing the VR edition of Super Hot. Be sure to subscribe to his channel, his videos are absolutely hilarious.
