Thanks TBS, Alectors mother had a skin color like a human.
Here is the fifth chapter...sorry that i took so long:
Chapter 5:
Melas is still sleeping in the arms of Alector. He’s really small for a Mudokon baby, that’s a bit weird for Alector – "I don’t know what I can do with you…I never had a little child in my arms before…this world is too dangerous for you."- He lays the little Melas into the smooth grass and looks a bit towards him. He would like to know what Alos would do if he’d found a little egg. The sun is rising and then they will go to the end soon. Alector takes the baby gently and lays it into the moss. He sits down and tries to sleep, but he’s not sure, it’s better when he’s wake. Now, he never wants to have an enemy come and kill or steal Melas. Alector watches over him the whole night.
But he can’t do it every night, it’s impossible. He thinks of what he can do in this tricky situation and walk a little bit over a shallow puddle of water on the Hill. –"What have I done, that I must grow up so fast?" He goes back to the lair and takes his spear and points it at Melas. He wants to kill Melas, because he won’t have time for him in the future. He’s ready to pierce the big speart through the little body of Melas, but Alector begins to tremble a bit and lets the spear fall down at his feet.
-"I want to be a Fencer…and not a murderer! "- Alector takes Melas to his big arms and walks to the shallow water again where he thought about the little Melas and what he almost did.
A few minutes later Alector takes the warm water and gives it to Melas then touches the ground of where the water once lay. Suddenly flowers and grass grows upto Melas and bed him.
Alector walks three steps back and touches the red diamond on his tiara with his hands and closes the eyes. He rubs his hands till little sparks and glitter appear on his big palms. He opens his hands and the big glare comes out to the heaven and lets Melas disappear in it. One just can see Melas, body floating through the air. It’s getting taller. Alector just hears Melas crying. He tries to open his eyes, but the glare dazzles both of them. Alector closes his eyes again, then quickly turns around. His eyes are a bit hurt due to the glare. Then he sees the heaven turning back to a normal colour. He looks behind him and sees a small Mudokon boy sitting down in the water. Melas looks up to the big Mudokon and then at his hands. He tries to stand up, but he falls down because his body is new for him and he never stood before. Alector goes to Melas and helps him to stand up. Melas stands up unsteadily, as he’s never stood on his legs before. He looks up to Alector and begins to laugh. Alecor looks at Melas –"Why do you laugh?"- Melas opens his mouth, takes a deep breath and wants to say a word, but he doesn’t know how to say anything. He makes strange sounds but he can’t say one word. Alector laughs and lays his hand against Melas’ forehead.
Alector’s hands gleams on Melas’ head. Melas falls down and says: -"ooouch! What have you done?"- Suddenly he touches his neck and tear apart his eyes. He can’t believe what Alector has done. Melas stands up again and tries to walk, it’s still not easy for him. Alector walks to the little Melas and holds him so that he can’t fall –"You’re still small and you have to learn a lot!"-
Melas nods and walks around a bit on his new legs. Melas hears strange sounds next to him. He looks down into an abyss, but he can’t see anything. Suddenly something hurts him on his leg, blood starts dripping out of it. Melas steps back. All of a sudden something hurts him on the other leg over and over. Alector runs to Melas and goes out of the grass. They both look into the little meadow. Alector takes a little stone and throws it into the meadow. Suddenly Fleeches comes out of the grass and attack them both. Alector grabs Melas and runs away from them. He throws Melas on a rock that he can climb on it away from the Fleeches.
He takes his weapon out and cuts all tongues off of what comes near Alector. Another Fleech is behind Alector and hurts him on his back, he turns around, grabs the tongue of the Fleech and smacks it on the ground.
The Fleech screams. He looks at the bowels of the Fleech and walks to the others.
Alector takes the Fleeches without tongues and smashes them into the other few. The little meadow is bloody and the bowels of the Fleeches lay on Alector’s feet. He kicks them all down the abyss. Melas sees all the bowels, the bloody grass and Alector with his bloddy hands. Then he climbs down to Alector –"They hurt my legs…"- Melas shows Alector the flesh on his legs, they are red. Alector smiles at Melas and touches the big wounds. Melas: "Oooouch!!! What are you doing!!??" He grabs his head because of the pain and closes his eyes –"Stop it…that’s terrible!!"
Alector: "That’s not terrible…you’re crying…that’s really terrible!" Melas stops crying and sees what Alector is doing to his legs. Alector: "It’s better you look away or hold your hands over your mouth! " Then he grabs into the wound, a heat is going to heal his legs. Melas: "Aaah!! Stop,stop, stop!!! That’s enough! Please stop it!" Alector gets a bit angry about Melas’ loud sounds –"Now be quiet, that really strains my nerves!" He takes his hands off Melas’ legs –"Now…can you see it?"
Melas looks at his legs –"Oh, WOW! You’re a healer!!! That’s unbelievable!!! That’s cool!"- Alector stands up and shakes his head –" You’re just too young to understand this, my life is fate. It’s not funny or cool. Perhaps someday you will learn it too."-
Melas: "What’s your race?" , Alector- "I’m a Fencer…it’s not a race, we’re just normal Mudokons, but we have to do something in this world. Our generation will live and watch over the land forever!"
Melas nods and grins. –"I think you are a great Fencer then…I don’t know what this is…but I will learn it soon!"
Alector: "Yes, Melas you will learn a lot of things in this world! But first you must wear what; *coughs*...you're naked"...
