the lunar eclipse saga

Chapter 1

“Kolack do you understand”

There was a long pause while Kolack looked his older sister in the eye.

“Yes…..I do”

Kolack’s big sister looked disappointed.

“You don’t have to do this, I will”

“No Clair”

As Kolack stood Clair handed him his long bow. Kolack looked at his sister as if saying thank you as he opened the front door to his hut he looked back at his sister.

“Im sorry but it has to be done”

kolack ran to the forest and faded away

I’ve been running for hours where is this place

“Aghh”

A knife was thrown right passed his head seconds before he even realized it had happen. He turned his head only to see the knife had gone through two trees and lodged into another immediately he pulled out his long bow strung and arrow pulled back the drawstring and waited until the first sign of movement.

There it was he pulled drawstring as far as he could and released.

The arrow vanished in mid air he heard movement behind him as you might in a vast forest but it was to fast to be to any normal animal or human. Before he could turn he felt something smash into the back of his head .the force of the blow lifted Kolack from the ground two meters. When he came too he saw his older brother standing over him holding the arrow he shot.

“Do not ever shoot an arrow at me again” his brother saying it with a series look in his eye.

After a short moment of pause Kolack older brother started to laugh.

“Im just kidding after all I threw a knife at you”

“Why would you do that”?

Kolack groaned as he stood.

“I wanted you to stop”

“Oh than that’s ok” replied Kolack

“Really” his older brother looked confused

“NO!”

Kolack quickly pulled out his hunting knife pressing it up to his brother’s neck

“Don’t ever do th-

Before he could finish his sentence his brother vanished.

“I can move faster then you can say ‘I’ … remember”

“What do you want”?

“You didn’t think you would leave without me did you”

The voice came from above his head

“I don’t need your help”

He walked over to where the knife was stuck into the tree he then ripped it out.

“Who said I wanted to help you …. I just want mum out of that village”

Kolack turn around and threw the knife into the direction of his brother’s voice. It stopped right befor it hit the trunk of the tree his brother holding it by the tip

“Lets go”

After what seemed to be ages of running the two brothers finally reached their destination AMUCOE village. Soon they came to the front entrance every step their lungs heaving for a full breath of air as the brother’s approached the guards. they lowed their spears. Before they could speak Kolack brother was standing behind them with two stones raised over their heads the guards fell motionless.

They were in.

Unfortunately the boys were known very well through out the village for their thieving and trouble making fortunately they wore hooded cloaks.

No one recognized them…..yet.

The two of them searched every house and tent they could without being noticed. Eventually they reached a tent larger then any other

A guard waited at the entrance .The two boys walked over to the tent.

“Who goes there”?

The guard gasped as he was picked up by his tender neck. After what seemed to be few minutes Kolacks older brother dropped the limp body laying his spear in his cold hand to show this man died with some dignity they both entered the tent

“Mother” cried Kolack

As he ran to his mothers body while his older brother walked over

“Is that you Kolack” his mother whispered

Her body bruised with scars and open wounds

Up to nine inches long her face had been brutally bashed. She wore torn rugs stained with dark blood.

“Yes mother I have bought Jerick also”

Their mother started to cry as the two boys took off their cloaks. Kolack revealed thick green hair and dark brown eyes.

His body was covered in small scars. He wore a torn tunic and long pants.

Jerick had jet-black hair and grey eyes. His body covered in small scars like Kolack.

He bared a small mark on his upper torso indicating he could control the shadow speed.

“Soon my soul will leave this place and I will forever be in peace”

“Don’t say that” a single tear rolled down Kolacks eye.

“You mustn’t cry little one I will always look over you”

The entire time Jerick kept silent.

“Im sorry”

Jerick lifted her she then went limp in his arms after he placed her in Kolack’s.

Jericks eyes were blood shot as they were filled with sadness as well was Kolacks they both broke out in tears.

The boys started to walk to the tent opening Jerick a little faster then his younger brother.

Just at that persisted moment a villager walked into the tent as well as one of the bandits who would have done this to the boys mother. Both the villager and the bandit’s eyes lit up with surprise as they saw the two brothers’. All sadness gone from Jericks eyes they were now filled with hatred and aggression

“INTRDER” the villager yelled again and again and had now been sounded. Jerick simply look at his brother then vanished leaving behind a black cloud of smoke witch quickly faded away the two men witch were once at the entrance lay dead on the bare ground. The bandit’s short sword lay at the tents far end already blood-curtailing screams could be heard but Kolack could not let this bandit die without dignity he placed the short sword in the bandit’s cold arms the villager had no weapon so his dignity could not be helped.

Once the screams subsided Kolack left tent with his mother’s limp body in his arms .It was dark but light enough to see all the dead body’s surrounding the remains of the village.

I can’t believe my brother did this

“Jerick” he yelled

Kolack searched for brother for several hours’ when he found him standing on top of a roof he went to call his name but before he did he realized something was wrong he didn’t move. He laid down his mother and climbed to the top and froze in his place. In front of him stood a moon wolf his brother caught in it’s paralyzing gaze.

“Jerick get out off there”

Kolack ran in front of Jerick and the gaze was broken. His brother quickly came too he looked up and his eyes widen as he realize what was going on. The wolf bared it fang and sprang to attack.

Jerick had to get his brother out of the way before he was killed or worse was given the disease he looked up he new what he had to do he quickly punched Kolack under his left eye with inhuman speed Kolack walked backwards in pain and slipped on a loose tile he fell two stories and landed on his head he was knocked out stone cold his face covered in blood from his new wound. The wolf attacked Jerick in stead of kollack he held back the wolf as long as could throwing it two feet into the air but his effort to keep back the wolf was useless considering he used up most of his strength using the shadow speed also the wolfs paralyzing gaze drains you of all your energy time seem to stop at that every second as the wolf sunk its fangs into Jericks right arm he yelled in pained as he pushed the wolf off of him he was standing on the edge of the house the wolf got back on his feet and sprung again this time knocking Jerick and it self off the edge of the houseas they fell Jericks head smashed into a oil lantern knocking him unconscious and spilling oil all over the ground below immediately lighting a fire. Jerick’s body lay on the ground as the house he was on lit up in flames the moon wolf was no ware to be seen the house fully consumed in flames collapsed on top of Jerick the fire was put out by the storm that came seconds later
