WOOT! THREE PAGES!! and the new chapter! two in one! :D
Chapter 6
A twig snapped. That was all Alamar needed to know to pull out his Khorovod. He snapped around and saw another one of those tree thingies. He leaned back, and using all the power his arms could muster, threw his sword. It flung through the air, and struck the lumber in the middle, the long blade sticking out the other end. Gears popped off, sparks flew, and the monster finally fell to the ground. He picked up a few gears that looked useful, and pulled his sword out.
Alamar sighed, and sat down. He had been searching the forest already for a few hours, and still saw no signs of civilization. He had also encountered quite a few of the native monsters, and his arsenal was full of gears, fur, bones, and other stuff. He had tried to attract people instead of searching for them various ways, such as making a forest fire with his fiery vaporizer, to no avail. In the process, he had lost his pack of bombs, and was now bomb-less.
Alamar thought over the past events. In less then a day, his life had been critically changed. First, he got stuck in a pod with a bunch of morons after some other moron made the ship go boom. After that, they had ditched him when he was still unconscious, proving his point of them being morons. Now, it was already sunset and he still could not find anybody.
Suddenly, he heard some barking. It was muffled, but yes, it was certainly barking. It came from underneath the body of the fallen creature. He got up and walked over to it and looked under. Underneath, was a small, wolf-like creature that he had encountered countless times before. The tree thing was probably carrying it. He grunted, and walked over to where his sword was. He picked it up, and was about to lop of the head of the creature when he noticed something shiny on it’s fur. He dropped the sword and inspected it. It was a piece of armor, from a knight!
Alamar immediately sprang to action, grabbing his gear and leaving the creature behind. He knew that someone might be nearby, and he also knew it was important to be with someone, no matter how moronic they were, especially if u were on a planet that u had no idea about and the natives that lived there. He ran through the forest, tearing away any foliage away with his massive sword. He continued running until he saw a small speck in the distance. It also appeared to be running. He had no idea what it was, but Alamar kept running himself. The other thing kept running too. Now, they were much closer. He looked like someone he knew, when he suddenly got it! A knight!
Alamar suddenly stopped and his Khorovod flung forward. The other person, seeing the blade coming towards him, ducked, so that the blade hit a clump of bushes behind him, which were immediately obliterated.
Alamar ran towards the knight, ignoring his horrified face. “Finally! Another knight! Are there any others? If so, where are they? Who are? Oh, yeah, I forgot the important question. Are u a moron?”
He continued to look at Alamar, with a horrified expression, which soon melted into a confused expression. “What?”
Alamar stared and slapped his forehead, answering his own question. “Of course you’re a moron…”
Now, the knight looked at him with irritation. “Well, who said anything about morons? I’ll have you know that my name is Revan, medical unit of squad, 782394, second-in-command.”
Alamar continued to listen to him blabber for a full 5 minutes before he finally screamed, “I GET IT! ALL RIGHT?! I GET IT! YOUR NAME IS REVAN AND YOU’RE THE MEDICAL UNIT OF SQUAD 782394, SECOND-IN-COMMAND, YOU HAVE A LEVIATHAN BLADE, AND A BUNCH OF OTHER STUFF! I GET IT!!!!”
Revan looked strangely at him for a couple seconds, when he finally said, “Well, I now know a couple things about you. First, you have anger issues. Second, you have a loud voice. And, third, you have a good memory.”
Alamar was about to scream at him for a bit more, just for the heck of it, when he heard a voice behind Revan. “Revan, what are you doing? And how did you get here? And who is that guy your talking to?
Alamar looked behind Revan to see two other knights standing there. Great, he thought. More morons. He was starting to regret wanting to find other knights.
The two knights came forward, and introduced themselves, while the one called Revan was standing there anxiously, as if he really, really, REALLY, needed to go pee.
“Hey, you know…. You look kinda familiar…”, said Nexon. “Oh yeah! You’re my friend! I can’t believe I forgot that… Must have been the crash…” Nexon walked away and leaned on a tree, muttering. Alamar suddenly remembered Nexon too. He was sure that he hadn't FORGOTTEN him... he just had a lot on his mind.
After the introductions were done, and Alamar described his encounter with Revan, Will said, “That brings us to him.” He pointed to Revan.
“Why are you out here when it’s already dark? And please don’t pee your armor. That’s going to look real disgusting…”
Revan sighed. “Chomp escaped and I was chasing after him when a lumber picked him up and ran away with him. I have been trying to find him since.”
Alamar gasped. “I killed a tree thing back there and there was a wolf thing underneath it. I was gonna kill it when I heard you.”
Revan’s eyes bugged out. “Well, then, lets go!” He rushed forward and the others had no other choice but to follow him.
When they got back to where Alamar had killed to lumber (Alamar decided to call them that since they looked like a good source of lumber), Revan was already there, prying Chomp loose. The wolver, the name the other guy, Nexon, called them, was struggling and trying to get loose, but could not. Finally, Revan got it loose.
“Whew. That was close. I almost thought I was gonna loose that guy. He has some broken bones and several of his ribs are shattered, but it’ll heal.” He gently cradled it and got up. “Best be getting back to camp now. Getting dark.” He walked up the path and left the other 3 behind.
“Almost dark… it’s already dark! Geez…” Alamar heard the other two mumbling as they trudged up the hill. There was now a light sprinkle, and the moon was out. The light shone through the forest and gazed upon the forest.
Alamar looked at the beautiful sight and sighed. It had been a long day, and right now, he was just tired and hungry, and didn’t even care about morons anymore. As he gazed at the forest around him, and listened to the strange sounds, Alamar could already tell his new life was going to be a strange one.
