《Guardians : Awakening of Athene》Chapter 14: Goblin Island
Advertisement
lack skies, ominous clouds. Heavy rain poured as Eric walks out holding Lancelot in his hands. They ship destroyed, unable to move anymore. They step onto the small island. With no one in sight and no way back, he decides to explore the island to see if anyone is here.
The violent wind charges at them as they continue their pathway towards into the forest. White fog impairing their visions, as Lancelot uses his senses to guide the way.
They continued to explore the forest, only to find small bugs flying around. No able to see an escape, they aimlessly walked forward into the mist.
"Lets rest for a bit, it doesn't look like we are getting anyway." Eric lays his back against a small tree.
"I have been wondering, why don't you have an iBracelet". The rabbit's small voice reaches Eric as he continues to chew this carrot.
"I have a smartwatch instead. These things are really just up to preference and your magic affinity." Eric taps his smartwatch on his left wrist, a hologram appeared floating in the air.
"They are all essentially the same, but there are small differences. You see, the bracelet is primarily used for storage and communication, therefore it has the most amount of space. While the watch is used for convenience, with different functions but limited storage. It comes in lots of shapes and sizes, I mean Kiva uses a smartphone..." Eric explains to Lancelot in a careless tone.
"I have been wondering as well, how do you always have that carrot?" Eric massages his neck and shoulders.
Lancelot stopped his chewing and threw the orange carrot on to the ground. He then pulls out another one as if he was creating a carrot from nothing. "This is my power! Well one of them at least!" He laughed as he explains proudly. "Sir Lancelot's power knows no beyond!" He smiles brightly at Eric.

As Eric is about to laugh from this rabbit, a sudden arrow scratches his hair hitting the tree behind him. Immediately, Eric grabbed the Lancelot and ran into the mist without a second thought.
The silent forest isn't voiceless anymore, massive sounds of small footsteps marching towards Eric and the rabbit. The disgusted squeaky voice echoes throughout the trees. Surrounding Eric as he becomes trapped by the ominous mist.
Green small ugly creatures came around him as if they were waiting for this human. Some carried bows, some carried blunt sticks and others with small knives.
"Goblins." Eric feared. His careless eyes became serious. His tone became heavy. Surrounded by a dozen goblins with Lancelot in his hands.
"Rabbit, hold tight." The white rabbit climbs on to his shoulders. Eric cracks his knuckles, placing his right hand on his smartwatch. A blue hologram of a blade handle appears in front of him as he pulls it out from his watch. He triggers a small green gem on its handle. Numbers of binary data appears as it converts itself into a silver short sword.
"I like my food to be high-classed. We aren't eating these ugly creatures." His voice directed to the rabbit as if he was making a joke. Eric charges forward into the small army of green goblins. Killing the ranges one first, then moving on the rest. Blood spatter as a massive footstep is heard. The creature appeared in his vision, after killing a dozen goblins. The beast is seeking revenge.
Eric charges forward, striking the monster with his blade.
- Somewhere on Goblin Island -
Its been a while since these two girls have landed on this island. With Sarah's flames and Hana's light, the fog wasn't much of a problem for them. The problem is... the number of goblins chasing them was endless.

"Dammit, these pests are annoying!" Sarah cuts goblins in half as she continues to run with Hana.
Hana rosed her staff and chanted - Flash -
The yellow gem on her staff emits a bright strong clour blinding the goblins.
"They are attracted to female's natural fragrance!" Hana shouted.
They continued to run from the endless army of goblins.
The green ugly creatures jumped from the trees, with their disgusting laughs, they continued to block off Sarah and Hana's paths.
"I am tired of running! Let's just kill them!" Sarah rosed her katana. Fires ignited the blade. Her face grins. "I can't stand ugly beasts." She declared.
"Sarah stop! You won't have enough mana afterwards!" Hana shouted in a hurried, trying to prevent her from using too much mana. But it was too late.
She stabs the blade into the ground. - Fireland Combustion -
The earth shook, fires burning the grass, terrorizing the wild forest. The wildfire spread across the land, igniting everything within their radius. Dead ashes of goblins breezed with the winds as Sarah falls on her knee. The extreme heat burns the mist into nothing-less as the area has become lifeless with no plants nor goblins.
The path opened up, leading them right out of the forest. Hana supporting Sarah in order for them both to walk. They arrived at the beachside, nearby the violent storms, surrounded with the blood of the dead sharks.
Only to see, a male with burnt clothing, blood all over his body with broken glasses and a small white rabbit on his shoulder running against them. He passes through them as if he didn't see them, only shouting them to run.
Speechless as they could be, seeing Eric like this. They focused their attention on the direction he was coming from. Only to see a gigantic three meters human-roid beast. With horns on this head charging towards them. His dark green skin became more visible, the rampaging red eyes and its nasty growl fears the wild. The monster swings his bone-made clubs aimlessly as Sarah and Hana decided to run as well.
"I think we found it. The Unspoken Ogre." Hana explains as the group tries to run from the massive demon.

Cardinal of Sin
They say sin comes at a horrible price. Or...perhaps I'm misremembering the saying. Regardless, I'm usually inclined to agree with the aforementioned statement.
