THE GUARDIANS SHADOW

CH 4+5

It looked like the end for the Renamon, but just as the blast was about to hit the Renamon, it fell forward and pushed back with it's arms. In doing so it was like it jumped backwards only in reverse. The only problem was the Renamon performed this act to late and the blast exploded once it hit the ground, throwing the Renamon a good distance into the forest.

"Oh now I've done it again. I've gone and used to much power. Sometimes I don't know my own strength." The dinosaur laughs. "Well I best go and get my fill of that tasty morsel." An evil grin spreads across it's overly large face. With that the brute stomps off towards where the Renamon has flown off to. While he watches as the thing moves off he sees that the trail isn't hard to follow as many of the trees look to be snapped in half from the Renamon being blown back.

This wasn't good. He quickly pulled out his gun and unloaded the dart rounds and pulled out the higher powered rounds. This thing was going to die right here and right now. Once the clip was in he quickly darted around the trees to find a good location to kill that demon.

The hunter knew that he had a chance to save this Renamon as long as that overgrown monster kept moving, so he continued to scoot around the area. Eventually he saw a ball of black fur a little ways off. As he got closer he began to smile since the demon had misjudged where the Renamon and been thrown, so he quickly moved over to it and knelt beside it. I need to check and see if this thing is still alive.' So he placed his hands on it's side and was rewarded when it slowly rose. Thank god, I'm not to late.'

Looking over his shoulder he could just make out that thing a little ways off. If he didn't hurry and move this creature to a safer place that thing would eventually lay waste to this area to find it, or move over here next. So he had to come up with a plan and the best he could come up with is to draw that thing away from the Renamon. The only problem was, how was he going to take revenge against that thing.

He didn't remember that thing being that tall so long ago. How did it grow to that size? He didn't have time to ponder that question as the monster turned towards him and smiled.

"Now what do we have here? A lowly human's found my meal." It's smile widened. "You look pretty tasty too. I think I will have you for a snack then move on to that Renamon as the main course." Just then it's left eye exploded outwards. The demon howled out in pain as it shook it's head. After thrashing around for a while the thing looks down at him.

The hunter ejects the spent shell and transfers another into the chamber. "Do you really expect that I would just sit here and let you do as you please. Ever since you killed my family, I've been training for this day." Lifting the gun up he took aim again through the scope. "NOW YOU DIE!" He yelled as the second round was fired. Time seemed to slow as he watched the round leave his gun and sped towards the demon.

This ones for my family.' The round sped through the things mouth then through the back of it's skull. Effectively blowing the things brains out. The demons eyes rolled back into its skull as it raised it's mouth to the heavens where it froze in a silent scream. Just then the demon seemed to be engulfed by a bright light and then exploded.

The hunter was thrown back by the explosion and was thrown right into a tree, head first. He lost consciousness before he even hit the ground so, didn't notice the events that happened afterwards.

(The whole scene is in black and white and silent as the first films.)

A small boy no older than five with golden curls on his head was sitting on the lawn, happily playing with a young golden retriever. The boy was dressed simply in a pair of Levi overalls, a white shirt, but no shoes. The puppy happily jumped and barked at the boy as it circled him and the boy would often try to reach out and catch the young playful pup.

The parents were sitting on the porch of their two story home, in a set of whicker rocking chairs watching over their son. The mother looked to be in late forties and the man in his fifties. The mother is wearing a sun dress that had a print of a sunflower on the bottom seam and she had a set of sandals on her feet. She had her hair up under an old grass sun hat and a smile on her lips. The father was dressed just like his son, only his shirt was dirty with dirt stains and pieces of straw stuck in it due to a hard days work out in the hay fields.

The picture perfect family as the mother set three glasses of lemonade on a small whicker table between the two chairs. The father calls out to the boy and waves him in. Just as the boy gets to his feet both the parents faces turn to one of horror and point to something behind the boy.

The scene flashes forward and all around the house, trees are burning and everything else that can catch fire has. We find the family cowering under the house in a basement clutching at each other. Just then it's as if a twister has touched down as nearly all the house is pulled from it's foundations in a second. The family stares up at the open space that was once their home in dumb founded stupidity. Time seems to slow as they look up and then are buried under several pieces of wood. Just then a giant three fingered clawed starts to dig through the rubble.

Just then a silent scream is heard as the claw impales the parents, then lifts them from the pile. As they are lifted the claws sink deeper and deeper into the mothers stomach, effectively killing the mother. All this is seen as the young boy who is buried under the rubble and that the parents had shielded the boy with their bodies from the wood. The boys eyes are still wide open as he continued to watch the horror unfold. Finally they claw stops about where the roof of the house used to be and the boy watches as the man wrenches a piece of wood that had apparently impaled him in the back and start to swing it back and forth.

A monstrous roar is heard as the man scores with the splintered edge of the wood on the things chest. The boy looks up and sees that his father has cut the demon in the chest in the shape of an x over the things black heart. The man laughs for only a moment as the monster says something to the man then throws both parents into the air only to be snatched out of it and the demon begins to chew.

The screams begin anew as this time it is the man that is brutally murdered. The screams of his dead mother and dieing father sends the boy into shock, then he passes out. Thankfully when he did this, he didn't know that that act had actually saved his life as the demon begins to dig again through the rubble for something else to eat. After digging for a little while the thing never finds the boy.

And just as quickly as a twister the thing up and disappears, through the memory of watching this thing kill his parents, chew them, and the x shaped wound on the demons chest will forever push the boy nearly into insanity. But a single word is what saved the boy, and that is REVENGE.

For years the boy remains silent. Being moved time and again from different foster homes and shrinks. Traumatized over watching his parents being murdered in the most horrendous way. As time moves forward as it always does, the boy begins to see more and more of these thing make a jump from their world to this one. Finally upon his twenty first birthday he can no longer take the horrendous nightmares of his parents death and decides to take his life.

Going out to a local pawn shop he purchases a gun and decides that if he can't be with his parents in this world he would be with them in the other. So he goes out to a local hill that leads down to a stream and thinks that once he shoot himself that his body will fall into the water and drift away. But just as he is about to take his life he sees something that would forever change his future.

Not far away he sees a young child being chased by what looks like a demon in the shape of a black ball. It has the feet of a chicken, two bat like wings on either side of it's body, and the size of a bowling ball. Looking down at the gun he shakes his head and gives chase after the thing. He slides down the hill and moves ahead of the two. There he awaits the passing of the girl from behind a tree. The monster never sees him step from behind the tree as the girl runs past and the demon stops right at the end of the barrel. The boy doesn't say a word as the demon knows what is about to happen and the boy simply squeezes the trigger, blowing the things body to pieces.

Now the boy has purpose, now he has a reason to go on living. He will hunt down these creatures that pray on human lives and 'KILL THEM'.
