Spectral Claws: Ancient Recurring

The Shifting Minds 3

"How pity this tiny wolf had made this far and can't get through me hahaha. " I wasn't expecting to turn already but the wrath was too hard to contain and the pain was just feeding it so much more. "Do you know how badly your father lost to me and my friends? hahah well you will know soon, like father like son. "

The vermin laughed and smiled at me while his big friend stood there with all pride talking about it and I just couldn't hold back Naufilius-

anymore... I can't be in there anymore, "Your filthy mouth is gonna be torn apart before you can even say another word, Poison Face. "

It was hell back outside but when I came into my mind I had a whole other journey giving all the control just to him as the.. secrets here were much more than that happened outside.

I didn't hold back my smile as it was made wide seeing these two back together for another beautiful beatdown. This is going to be the best piece of work I ever made. "So.. now I can cross two more from my list.. "

Thanks to Faudian whatever changed his mind here I am and in full control and power looking through the eyes of these two beasts, "Why aren't you talking surprised to see me? or afraid I will tear your face apart.. "

I glared at the giant vermin and the king of rats standing there, these were once helpers for the guardians or the gods after letting them live beneath Earth. Here they are making me feel pity for all the wrath of every ancestor that flows through me just for the greatest sin ever a creature can make.. betrayal.

" I-"

My claws were up in the air as I threw my body upside slashing through the atmosphere that tried to sink me down just with these two's filth. In my combat and raging stiff stance I reached his mouth only to be taken down by the smaller vermin pushed away from the side as it also fell down.

my claw had taken some skin and as I look at him, His mouth smiling wider but not by his command, "ye toooooreee apaarrrt" it yelled in agony and pain but I couldn't hold back my happiness and rage, "Look I warned you old buddy, You get what comes for you and unfortunately, these claws did. "

"Greerrr, Naufilius you will be taken down. " A very poor prediction taken down in seconds as his body was also above like mine when I pounced but thrown away by me towards the wall. He hit it and fell down to the lower floor. "Lesser warriors like him are the ones who give you pride as a.. what a teacher oh sorry princess of rats am I right? "

As I poked at its face, first literally and now deliberately humiliating him, I gave him a chance to pour more of the rage into himself as he pounced at me with that.

Miserably failed as I couldn't take that attack to my face, it's still Faudians body so I wouldn't want to not dodge that. Not to say I just simply stepped to the right so wasn't much of a fight.

"Taken down this easily, I thought you were gonna give that necessary evil speech.. well not so evil anymore you. "

I cup it's face with my claws, leaning to it, "You verminous creatures were supposed to stay underground, climbing back up to help the mafia was nothing but the worst way to get back with me and get wrecked. Tell me why-"

with pain he had screeched trying to push my hand away, "I.. did not come here.. for the mafia... t-theeyyy promised me the forbidden instrumeeenntt.. and then you came.. it was a greater offer to take you down.. no one expected you and Faudian to beee.. the same. "

the nerve on this thing, bleeding from his giant lips till his throat and he still goes on about but it was rather interesting to know he was against Faudian. Seems like we have been quite infamous all along on this side. What a wonderful day full of insight. "That's really good to know. Thank you for all the insight hanged lip. " I felt like Faudian for a second getting to know secrets, interrogating, and all that but I didn't know the fight would be this easy.

"what you looking at you got something to say? " I tilt my head at the bare smile he could make laying with his blood on the floor like I wondered what it was. Soon my wondering stopped as something held my back and threw me to the other side with great Force I could barely try to even stop getting hit by the wall, the same one Faudian fell on. "Grrrrr... " I growled at the cheap attacker taking me from behind.

I slowly got up and dusted my coat off staring into the wild beast's face. It was quite surprising to know that he still stands after using all that power. I wonder what it is.. but wait.. it cannot be that he used the instrument "So you had back up with using that thing... so the mafia gave you the instrument after all. With all that power you would have been even more powerful you vermin... what is this.. "

I ask as this detective game got out of hand for me, not the place I play. I have a different playground and I didn't wanna delve into this but what was even up with these two and the supernatural that keeps betraying their kind and their ancestors. What was this about... So many questions and no more time.

"Yes... Naufilius, you are right. We haven't used the forbidden instrument nor did we get our hands on it completely but this.. ah well this. "

He slowly takes out a necklace from his worn-out pocket from his giant cargo shorts and all this time I thought it was his extra skin peeling off by the pale and dusty look of it.

He for once had truly surprised me to show me for the first time.. "The piece of the forbidden instrument.. you see only We have ever held it after.. your ancestors of course. Their puny necks held these but we just had to keep it with us. "

Not the best place where one of the world's shiniest structures can be kept but this was still going out of hand. I suppose hand is what tiring being stiff and steady by standing straight and listening to all this talk..

"Alright sewer dwellers enough of the stupid talk, I couldn't care less. " With my force and agility came an extraordinary punch to his tummy growling as went to him. The giant stood stiff made me worried to see him all this strong but it was just taking time for gravity to pull him down.

The creep fell down leaving his king surprised and still knocked out mostly on the floor somehow not seeing that I could take him down easily and that was offending like on a personal vengeance level.

"I hate the way you look, just tell me was it Le Dorader" I said a sound-alike or maybe the exact word and I was a genius but I just needed the answer before I could tear his face even wider apart saying goodbye to his voice for once and all, "El...Dorado is a made-up place...its a lost city but it's not what you think it is and you --can n-never set foot there, little wolf."

He had spoken enough and it was time to take little baby rat to sleep. Lights out for an old friend may he not wake up again. I suddenly felt another harsh presence in the room the third one. As I tried to turn and look at this creature whilst growling I was hit greatly at the back of my head and knocked out within seconds blacking out completely and I was back inside my head...I didn't know If Faudian was outside or that we both were in. This was quite ruining the time I had with my old friend outside.

You better fix this Faudian...wherever in all of Wolviean land were you. After all you are still the first light.

(Meanwhile at another part of his mind.)

I was astonished to see Faudian Sr. in all his vigor and spirit standing there and making soup with a smile on his face. All these years living in this realm...I didn't understand if this was part of my mind or something else at all. "Dad...but how?"

As I said I had a strong hug from the person I tried to follow with his ancient texts all along and smiled at the warm gesture,"Good to see you, my Son, after all, you do have the looks of your mother. A charming prince and you are not to conduct wars but to teach people the violence it causes and take them from that past that kept repeating so we had to leave you as a small wolf behind to the humans. A greater task was at hand so that you would have a safer future and we had to distance ourselves for your sake."

The more he spoke the more I struggled to hold back the tears that would have flowed and flooded the town of absolute peace. This was too enchanting, sad, and relieving at the same time enlightening as well, "So you did what was meant to be done. You don't have to explain the duties you had at hand. It was your purpose, I was the fine father...but how...are you here. "

If what I knew was right every soul or ancestor that was connected to me lived here just in need of something that I was fated to do for them. Was he one of them as well?"The path to this place, let me in because you are here and you are here because you need me to get things done...is that right dad?"

He gave a proud smile at me and kept his strong hand on my shoulder sending an energizing gesture,"You are brimming with intelligence. You are an extraordinary creation and an evolved being my child. You weren't done manually with the grace of something beyond the universe and our knowledge helped us make you what you are today. That brought you here but you are right as you ever were in every case you took."

He said his smile and proudness only getting wider and his face seemed peaceful but I couldn't one thing of many things exactly, "What does Naufilius have to do with this...he is asking for a major war to take down these betrayers and ...find peace after that?"

I moved towards him almost in a demanding yet rightful way to ask this one question in need of help,"Please tell me why is this thing in my head."

He smiled and looked at me, deep into my eyes almost curing my soul and putting me into deep meditation but it made me gain peace and abundance of powerful insights about myself, "That is your own journey my son...it was good seeing you. I will see you next time then for now farewell." Why does it also show me a figure that resembled the one that betrayed my dad...why is there an insight that sneaked inside my head that says, "The one who lead the betrayers of our warrior clan...is still alive...on Earth?."

I was suddenly thrown away from the town and upwards into space as I become unconscious after the yell I made that could have echoed all over the town of peaceful and silent people, "No, waiiiiitt!!"

I was astonished and awakened on the outside seeing myself on the floor a little weak and still dumbfounded by everything that I just saw..and I could feel a similar presence like the similar one I saw in my mind, "Get up Faudian Jr. Let me see if you are as strong as your father. As the youngest child to the first Terragon and the brother of Havier, I command you as a fellow Gendelinian to battle me in front of every citizen in this town. I want to know if you can take down with all your might the actual power of the mighty great spirit that I hold. I, Calfian Terragon will bring you down just like all the time before..."
