The Vamanwolf by S.S. Raees (fox in socks read aloud .TXT) 📕

A long stream of water appeared from thin air and plopped to the ground around the meadow. It looked just like a moat from my point of view. The Sun in the sky shone its piercing sun rays and lightened the complete meadow, casting a beautiful view.

I felt rigid for a single second. Something snaked its way out of me and rushed away from me, swooping as it went. Then, I opened my eyes and for a moment, all seemed silent.

‘I can read your mind now!’ Jacque cheered happily.

But his cheers and happy whoops were drowned by a loud ear splitting scream. All of them turned their eyes to Rose, but she shrugged. Rose’s power was also the Gift of Silence, the power to silence people.

Don’t ask me how I knew it but I just did. It popped into my head without me even noticing. Their eyes turned to me. Not exactly me but the object on my hand. The same object had started vibrating madly and non - stop.

And the Golden Diamond was screeching like an angry bird. The Power of the Diamond was finally being bent to the inner strength of a vampire, me. That wasn't supposed to happen, ever...

A golden ray erupted but I realized that my eyes had been fooled. The golden ray shot out of the diamond and twisted like a thin strand of string around the cave walls.

More golden strings erupted from within it. It spun all around us and thickened against the rocky walls of the . The diamond began to emit a bright glow of light. Then, a thought of realization struck me.

‘Quickly! Grab my hands all of you…’ I yelled loudly.

The diamond screeched louder and it rose up into the air. Mysteriously lifted into the air, was something even I couldn't give a possible, reasonable explanation.

Cracks appeared along its sides as the diamond opened up, miraculously. The light produced was too much and it blinded me from seeing anything.

The cave walls started spinning around us, as we were lifted off the floor and whooshed right into the very heart of the diamond...

CHAPTER 5
TABLE MOUNTAIN

We were swirling faster and faster through the air. Suddenly, we fell on solid and moist ground. I got up and brushed the dirt that had grazed the left side of my sleeve. Damn! My white shirt had a brown stain on it.

I looked around. I was still alone and I wondered where in the world I was? From thin air, Jacque dropped and landed on me. I groaned as I pushed off my body.

Oops! My bad. My throw had sent him flinging through the air and land in a muddy patch. He got up, covered completely in thick mud. Jack and Rose popped into existence beside me.

'Where are we, exactly?' I asked looking around myself.

'The diamond from the End Gods was supposed to help the possessor in a way unknown to the Sacred Land of Gods,' Jack slowly sighed.

'Well?' I asked turning my gaze away.

Something new had settled in my head. It was an uncomfortable feeling of semi - hatred. This Diamond was under my control, so why were they in here with me? I should be the only one who was to be here.

Then, I remembered Jacque and his mind – reading ability. I was careful enough to slip a hole in every in – between thoughts. I flashed a look at Jacque but he seemed pretty unaware of my thoughts.

I had to recreate the Shield of mine. But the question was, HOW? I had gotten the shielding ability directly from him. So, that probably meant he knew the way for it.

I closed my eyes as I felt myself floating away from the rest world. A familiar wind seemed to rise out from inside and spread around me.
Then, I was back with the others.

I could see Jack's mind too clearly. I searched through his mind like a computer, searching for a missing file - the File of Creating Shields. I found in a matter of 2.53421 seconds. It was hard at first but I managed to get in, in the end.

Little did I know what I was actually creating at the moment. My mind buzzed but I chose to ignore it. A mysterious voice turned on in my head. I wasn't crazy but it was a voice and it sounded rather familiar.

'The Shield Gift is a unique power given only to chosen vampires. It acts on positive thinking and vice versa, '

'Jack... It's you, isn't it?' I asked in an uncertain voice but there was no reply.

What just happened? I wondered to myself as I thought of the words the voice had told me.

For a second there, it had sounded like Jack's voice. My shield penetrating Jack's might have triggered some kind of link. But I doubted that Jack knew about this, and I decided that it would be better if he didn't.

'Happy things break the shield, so sad things would only reform it...' I wondered aloud.

'HUH?' cried Jacque and Rose too synchronized for a human to be able to do that.

Jack looked at me, confused.. I quickly closed my eyes before they realized what I was planning to do... I immediately thought of the same green lively meadow on fire.

Black fire spreading over it and raging everything in its way. Dark hazes illuminated it, casting a ghastly view. It was all silence momentarily, as a chilling wind settled itself around me and stayed.

All of a sudden, a ball of golden light appeared and sucked Jacque, Rose and Jack into it. Then, it vanished as mysteriously as it had appeared. I whispered a short thanks to the voice that had helped me.

My surrounding was starting to
