Chapter CCXI: Awakenings ~Rainstorm

 

 

Rainy awoke with a start. He jumped out of bed and looked around wondering where he was. After a minute of re-focusing, he realized he was back on the Spectrum.
"I wonder what ever happened to the Creations Weapons. And how the hell did I get back here?"
Rainy's question was quickly answered. CR walked through the door and looked around. He had heard a noise like a loud clang in the room.
"I see you're awake again," said CR. "Feelin' ok, or still kinda knocked out?"
Rainy checked himself. He flexed out his arms and legs and stretched.
"Yeah, I feel fine actually. But...what happened?"
"What do you mean?"
"What happened to the Creations Weapons, and how did I get back here?"
"Well for one, we thought we had left you behind when we left for the
Twisted Forest. Apparently you left early, which you probably should have told me," CR said with a shrug. "But oh well. After trying for hours to get through the Twisted Forest, we finally reached the clearing. That's when we found out that someone had already been there. There were dead bodies everywhere. At that point we didn't know if it was you or a Twilighter, but we continued on. We had to battle a few on the way to the tower, but there weren't many and they were all weak. When we started to get close to the tower, there was a real loud noise and then a flash of blinding white light. This was followed by a shockwave that knocked most of us over. When we finally got to the tower, we found the whole tower had been destroyed, and there you were, unconcious and laying next to the Creations Weapons. We carried you back, and you've been out ever since."
"Wow, then you have the Creations Weapons?"
"Yeah, we found them right next to you and brought them back."
Rainy breathed a sigh of relief. At least he had gotten done what he needed to get done. He quickly got up and got dressed. When he went to buckle his sword belt on, he realized that his scimitars were gone. He almost freaked out, until he remembered that they had been destroyed in the fight. He cursed aloud and then wondered what the hell he was going to use as a replacement weapon.
He shelved this thought for the moment, not thinking it was important. Instead, he took a nice walk through the train, saying hello to everyone that was there with a smile. After he walked around, he began to feel tired again.
"Guess the weariness from the spell is still lingering," he said out loud with a grin. With this, he headed back to bed and layed down for a short nap.
