Chapter 8
Discovery and Transformation
After a couple of miles, a few Dagger Roaches joined the two Sligs in their Journey to find Solister. They were very friendly now as they would defend them to the death. “When will we know when were there?” asked Zaypher. “I don’t know” replied Admeet, “we’ll just have to follow the PDA’s signal”. It was starting to get cooler as the sun was starting to slip below the horizon. Night was moving in. “We’d better hurry” said Admeet, “its getting dark”. The two Sligs hurried on towards the location.
Then there came a strange object in the horizon. Whatever it was, it was emitting a brilliant purple light. “What’s that over there” said Zaypher looking at the dazzling spectacle. “I don’t know but the PDA says that’s the location” replied Admeet, “Let’s go”. The object got closer and closer as the Sligs ran towards it. Then it became clear, this was no ordinary place. The purple light was a large beam that was emitted from a large piece of floating rock. The two Sligs couldn’t believe what they were seeing. “How many odd spectacles are there on this world” said Zaypher, “This is by far the oddest”. Four stone half-arches surrounded the circular pit where the beam shot through. “Well, I think we are here” said Admeet, “Shire’s Beam”. The two Sligs came closer to the beam. However, they saw some Sligs sat down by the beam. Their skin colour was a dark black and their eyes were pure white. However, they did not attack. “What are they doing?” said Zaypher inspecting them. They noticed that bands of purple essence soaked into their skin. “Well, judging by what has happened to Solister and if she is here, the purple beam has something to do with this” replied Admeet, “Maybe, that beam is the pure essence of evil”. What they didn’t notice however was a female being, crawling among one of the half-arches and inspecting Admeet’s every move. “We are only here for Solister, no one else” said Admeet. Then, the female being jumped from the top of the half-arch and landed on the brown dirt and dust. The Two Sligs turned around in surprise to see it was Solister. However, she had changed since the last time they saw her. She was just like the others, dark black skin and white eyes. Evil had taken over her completely. Admeet felt terrified but he had to hide away inside him. Zaypher led the Dagger Roaches following them away; he knew Admeet had to do this alone.
The dark and light eyed each other for a bit but then Solister leapt forward and shot purple electricity at not Admeet, but Zaypher. Zaypher didn’t realise this until he felt the bolt knock him back a long way. “Not again” he shouted as he flew through the air. He landed on the hard ground and the Dagger Roaches quickly tended to his wounds. Admeet seized his chance and tackled Solister to the ground. They fought on the ground for a bit with no side gaining an advantage. However, Solister managed to get her feet under Admeet’s stomach area and she kicked him really hard. He was thrown pushed towards the beam. He landed on the dirt but got up quickly. Solister just eyed the Slig next to the beam. “There’s only one thing I can do” said Admeet looking at the beam. Zaypher lifted his head and looked at Admeet. Then he realised what was going to happen. “No Admeet, don’t do it!” shouted Zaypher weakly. “I have no choice” said Admeet, “Just snap me out of it when the time is right”. And with that, Admeet stepped into the beam. He was magically lifted half way up the beam. He felt so much dark energy flow through him. Solister just stared at the floating Admeet in anger. Admeet’s skin started to turn black and his eyes turned from a bright red into a white. A black and purple aurora shimmered across Admeet’s body. He then flew out of the beam and landed on the ground. His body was made up of pure evil now. Admeet and Solister eyed each other with anger and hatred in their faces. The clash of the darkness had begun.
