Oddworld: Humanoid Havoc Part 7
Ken must have dropped his gun while he was skipping through all the tall grass and foilage outside. The large gathering of Fleeches showed their big jagged teeth to Kenny and the Mudokons and began to edge closer to them.
Kenny and the Mudokons ran back to the door and leaned against it, facing the Fleeches.
"Now what do we do? I lost my pistol." Kenny's face was drained pale like a ghost.
The shivering Mudokons looked around the chamber for a second, looking for a way out but the tunnel to the next chamber was blocked by the savages.
One Mudokon tapped Kenny's shoulder and shouted;
"Look, we can climb the wall of the chamber!" He pointed to the wall on the right side of the door which was jagged with stairway-like rock formations that lead up and around the chamber to another cavern entry.
Ken and the other Mudokons ran to the rocks and started climbing as fast as they could. The Fleeches swarmed and started crawling up the wall.
The Mudokon at the bottom panicked and yelled;
"The little buggers are climbing up the walls! Can they even do that? That's not fair!"
Ken looked down and started climbing faster. The Mudokons climbed faster so Ken fell behind a little bit.
As they got higher it got harder to climb bacause the rocks were getting smaller and more unstable. One Mudokon slipped from a rock but the one behind him broke his fall. The Fleeches were still behind but were catching up slowly. Ken got tired long before the Mudokons so he was huffing and puffing as he climbed, they were almost to the cavern entry way.
The first Modokon pulled himself up onto the flat surface near the cavern and started pulling the next up, then the next and so on.
Just Kenny and one Mudokon was left climbing, Kenny was fairly behind the Mudokon.
"Wait up...I am so tired."
The Mudokon turned his head as he climbed and looked at Kenny.
"Kepp climbing, we are almost the-"
The rock that the Mudokon was atop of gave away and fell to the floor of the chamber, taking him with him. Loud screames filled the chamber and came to a sudden stop.
Kenny never though he would see someone die like that. He pressed his face against the rock he was sitting on.
The Fleeched turned away and made haste to the chamber floor to eat what was left of him. Now there was a big gap between his rock and the next.
The other Mudokons stopped weeping and climbed down to the rock Ken had to reach.
"Ken, take my hand! We'll pull you up."
The gap was roughly seven feet tall.
"Reach!"
Ken removed his face from the rocky surface and jumped for the Mudokon's hand. Ken was a little heavier so another had to help pull.
They climbed to the top and stood near the cavern entry.
Before they moved on, Ken peered over the cliff, and it was a bad idea.
The Fleeched were ripping the Mudokon's body apart. Ken looked away and ran into the tunnel.
The tunnel was short and narrow. At the end was another chamber with no doors or caverns. Just a bit of light from a nearby Zap Totem provided enough sight to reveal a bigger totem and a pedestal at it's base.
Ken was curious about the totem so he asked;
"What does this thing do? It's huge."
The Mudokons turned and replied.
"This Zap Totem is supposed to make something move or appear somewhere in this room. But, we can't use it."
Kenny was puzzled.
"Why?"
"Ugh...(Are humans this stupid?) See the six sacred drawings on the floor? There are five of us so we won't have enough power to activate it.
A flash lit beside Ken and a Mudokon with spiritual wear and narrow eyes appeared.
"Hey, hey. This must be the human. If you want to get out of this place alive, you better activate...wait, was there six of you Ex-Scrubs here before? Nevermind...I'll open it myself."
Kenny recieved a shock when Shaman appeared beside him. He was confused how everyone knew a human was in Oddworld.
Shaman chanted for about a minute and activated the Totem. It flashed with brilliant lightning and glowing runes. A section of the wall moved to reveal outside. Green trees and rivers.
Shaman faced the Mudokons and Kenny.
"Ok, now get your buts over to the Almighty Raisin's Cave."
Ken stepped forward and confronted Saman.
"How did I get here and how do you know who and what I am."
Shaman shook his head and said;
"You must have been unconscious in Vykkers Labs for a few days because when they caught you they made a worldwide annoncement declaring that they found a human."
"But how do they know what I am?"
Shaman grew impatient and yelled;
"Just get out of here and get to the cave!"
He disappeared.
Ken was getting seriously frustrated.
"Ok, show me the way to the cave."
The Mudokons nodded and said;
"Let's be on out way."
Before they made a step. The pedestal by the Totem made a noise and an object rose out of the hole atop it. It shone with a brilliant metal shine and Azure runes. The handle was sturdy, made of foreign material. It was thick and flat at the end. It looked like some freak machete about 1/2 meter or so long.
The Mudokons and Kenny stared at the brilliance and the Mudokons said;
"The Mudoblade!"
Ken asked;
"The what?"
The Mudokons looked like they,ve seen a ghost.
"The most legendary piece of metal in all Oddworld."
The Mudoblade floated above the pedestal, glowing with a blue aura.
Fleeched swarmed out of the tunnel, scaring everyone to their feet. They looked hungrier than ever. Ken stumbled to his feet and grabbed the Mudoblade. A Fleech charged at him and Ken swing the blade down upon it.
The fleech was cut in two, glowing Azure where it had been cut, then the light fades away.
The Fleech swarm backed off and started edging away...
Ken was absolutely asounded by the force of the blow and how easy it was to swing.
"Holy..."
The Mudokons stood in amazement and stared at him like he was some sort of legendary figure.
"He can hold it guys."
Ken was curious but he was tired of questions and drowned in frustration.
Everyone greeted the day and walked into the trees and grass, Raisin's Cave wasn't far now.
