Chapter 41. Desperate Help
In the cave Trilas was seeking out the relic and at the same time our heroes were being chased by the large pack of meeches. It was beginning to get daylight as the sun rose over the Oddworlden landscape. Our heroes were running for their lives as ever more increasing dangers awaited them.
"Common we got to hurry!" yelled Silak
"You don't think I know that Silak!" replied Zin. "Common Kluna!"
As they were running for their lives the many screams of the meeches were getting louder and louder. One of the meeches cought up to Zin. Suddenly Zin was surrounded and his friends still were running. As he yelled out for his friends, Kluna and Silak came rushing in. But suddenly as they came running towards Zin a massive Rorm came rampageing into the area. Blocking Kluna and Silaks path to Zin. The meeches were about to attack. They were hungry and nothing would stop them now. Zin noticed his Alpha Elum a little ways awey from the pack. But he wasent sure why the meeches werent attacking his mount. It was almost as if the meeches had a purpose.
Suddenly one of the meeches stood up and made this hunting loud howel as he ran at Zin with his strangth pinning him to the ground. It stared Zin right into the eye and snarled and hissed. Its breath was unbearable most likely from what ever it ate before. And it's mouth parts stained pink. This meech was hungry hungry for blood. Zin notice his spear lieing on the ground but he was pinned by the meech. He thought to him self "Where is Kleek when we need him!"
Meanwhile Kluna and Silak were fighting the Rorm as the beast was rampageing through the piles of junk. The Rorm was going crazy and Kluna and Silak needed to get to Zin. But everytime they attempted to run, the beast would block them.
Suddenly Kleek came rideing in on his Alpha Elum along with Wheely and Blunk. They started attacking the beast but the beast started fighting back. Wheely being a robot took out a small blaster and started fireing on the Rorm. The beast made this loud roar and started chaseing Wheely in circles trying to grab him. But Wheely manage to dodge it's attacks. He fired more missles on the Rorm and the Rorm began to to stumble about. As the beast was beginning to feel the affects of the missles. The rest of them grabed their spears and jumped onto their Alpha Elums and started attacking it.
"LETS GO!"
As a huge onslaught of spears were being thrown into the mighty Rorms chest. The beast kept stumbleing as our heroes attacked it with clubs and aroes. The beast was comming to a halt as he stood their whining in pain.
"Look at it, oh my odd it's going to fall! yelled Blunk. RUN!"
As the bloody Rorm stuck with many spears whobbled back and forth and side to side it began to fall. Our heroes manage to get out of the way and the beast came falling to the ground with a huge pound.
"BANG!"
"We did it! Yea wooo!"
"Hey we got to rescue Zin he is caught by meeches lets go!"
Meanwhile Zin lied there stareing at the meech that pinned him to the ground. But the meech began to let loose as Zin got him self up. The rest of the meeches started circleing Zin and ever more increasingly gaining up on him. One of the meeches lashed out and suddenly scratched Zin on his arm. Zin held his arm in utter pain as he picked up his spear. But he could not throw for the meeches were too close. He ward them off everytime one went for him. Soon every meech stoped and were hissing and snareling at Zin. Zin only knew that this was the end and he couldent do anything now. Each meech cried out with their horrific howel as each meech were about to jump at him in one blow. Zin closed his eyes as the meeches jumped. He yelled with horror but suddenly everything went silent. He opened his eyes and surprisingly all the meeches were gone. The he saw all of his friends standing in front of him holding their their weapons. As he looked into the distance the meeches were running awey.
"Wha... what happen?"
"You were surrounded by meeches Zin."
"I know that but what did you guys do?"
"We were attacked by a Rorm and we couldent get to you Zin. so we had to fight the beast before we were to get to you."said Kluna.
"I thought you guys forgot about me."
"No, what made you think that Zin?"
"I donno I guess I just lost faith for awhile back there. How did you guys get rid of the meeches?" asked Zin.
"Well meeches are afraid of Alpha creatures such as our Elums and me being an Alpha Slig and Blunk being an Alpha Gabbit. We are like Gods to the meeches so they run off when we threaten them." explained Kleek.
"Really, Meeches are known to hunt Elums on Mudos." said Zin
"It is a good thing we got to you in time or you would have been breakfast. It is also a good thing Wheely found us at the right time." explained Silak.
"Yes me has gathered a bunch of me peoples to help in our mission." said Wheely. Kleek went to find me after we saved you from Trilas."
"Thats good to hear!" said Zin.
"Your hurt." said Blunk
"Oh don't worry it's only a minor scratch." replied Zin.
"Here!"
As Blunk threw him a piece of cloth to cover his wound.
"It is a special cloth mended by the alpha gabbits themselves. it has special healing properties." Explained Blunk
"Thanks. Now lets get out of here and head to the Mountain my friends!"
And so they did as all six of them mounted on their Alpha Elums with Wheely following, they were indeed off.
