Scar Worlds Beyond The Doors Part Two

 Volcano Venture


Scar arrived in a very hot climate. She could see that the land was hard and the sky was dark. She looked around and saw that she was in the middle of a village of some kind. It was filled with brick houses lit by small chandeliers with oblong lights. With lampposts that looked the same way. 

This is definitely not the same world I went to last time .

She then looked around and then the scent of smoke hit her nose. She then looked up at the sky only to realise that it was night with a sky littered with blue and turquoise stars. The next thing that she noticed that the entire sky was almost eclipsed in smoke!

She then quickly walked and looked around as people were walking to and fro like zombies. They all looked extremely dead like all life and light had crashed to a point that even the dust seemed to vanish.

Should I go and see if they are alright?

Sure! It may be fun. 

Well I have nothing better to do. And adventure is the point of this.

She walked up to the nearest woman.

“Urm…Are you alright?”

She looked at the girl and shook her head.

“Why?”

She looked at the mountain in the distance. To her shock, that was where the smoke was coming from! It was within milliseconds when they realised that it was not a mountain at all! 

Why are the people not already evacuating?

“The one that lives in Smoke Mountain forbids us from leaving. He kills all who have tried.”

“Why?”

“He thinks that the destruction that happened a hundred years ago was all made up. We know that we all should leave when the cloud eclipses the sky and return when the rivers of fire disappear. Just like our ancestors taught us.”

Scar nodded.

“Right. This I will go.” She said as she went to turn to it. “By the way do you have a map?”

“No. If you go, you will end up like my son.”

“Then I will do what I can to not die.”

“Good luck. Excuse me.” She said, pushing past her.

Scar soon looked at the volcano. She walked on as fast as she could without burning too much energy. She looked directly at the volcano, not taking her eyes off it once. She trekked on for a long time for a long time until she felt her feet become tired. She quickly ate her sandwich as she let her feet rest before getting back up. After a while she found herself at the foot of the volcano.

She just circled around it looking up and down to find out where the entrance point was. She soon saw the main entrance. It was a large stone cave mouth with an additional man made structure stemming from the mouth of the cave out in an arch with a point at the top. She saw many people working there. Which was an amount that it was safe to conclude that she was not getting in that way. She remembered reading about volcanos in her textbooks and knew that there was another way in. So, she circled it again to fund it. Which she soon did. It was a small csbr that only one of her size could crawl in. 

She climbed up to it. Then she dropped to her knees then climbed down, put her bag down and tied it to her ankle before crawling inside. She gritted her teeth as the rock dug into her hands and knees and shins. She knew that she had to continue. She could feel the heat rise into her face. Yet she could not afford to stop and enjoy it for one second. As she continued, she kept her eyes fixed on the red light ahead. She knew that if she did not, then claustrophobia would kick in.  She knew that the moment that happened, then she would collapse under the pressure. So she continued. When she finally reached the tunnel she saw the flowing lava. Next to it she saw a man smiling as he pushed a man in.

He then knelt down and looked up then he saw her. He then nodded. Soon a pair of hands grabbed her wrists and arms and was dragged out. Her eyes met those of the leader.

“So, who are you? And where do you come from?”

“Scar, you?”

“I am King Volcator. Tell me, where do you come from? You don’t look like you come from anywhere I know of!”

“One that knows that the volcano is about to erupt any day now.”

“Oh, you think that I do not know that?”

She was taken back by this. Her eyes widened in shock.

“You…you mean that you know?”

He smiled.

“Of course I know! Do you really think that I don’t believe the destruction of one hundred years ago? No! I can tell that you’re not from around here so I hardly think that I need to keep it from you.”

“Then why?”

“Did I lie?” He said as he laughed. “Well I intended to use those villagers as a human sacrifice.”

“What?”

“To my god Volfalgo. See he will give me all I need. Riches, wealth and women! All! I can have it all!”

Scar had to hide her disbelief. She also knew that she would have to bring an end to this tyrant’s reign. Yet she knew that she just could not kill him here, not with his guards here. She knew that she would have to give herself an opening that would stop them from stopping her from putting an end to him and from being killed after.

“Tell me does Volfalgo like fights?” She asked.

He smiled.

“Yes, yes he does. Especially one to the death.”

“Then how about we have one?”

He shrugged.

“Why not indeed?”

He then pulled out a sword and then threw a blade to her. She caught it. She could feel the weight of it. Yet shebwas taken back by it, another thing that she was taken back by was just how familiar the blade felt. She did not have the time to appreciate it as she looked at the man as he looked at her. She had to get all distractions out of her mind.

Can I do this? Can I actually do this? I mean he has so much more experience than me and I have barely any.

Well, there’s no time like the present.

Wjw then looked the guy in the eyes. She could tell, by his weight, that even though he was once a mighty fighter, mainly by his stance, he was badly out of shape and had not fought in a long time. This, she hoped, she could use to her advantage.

She then placed her bag on the ground before she ran to him. She first went to strike upwards, this he blocked. She went to strike to the left, he blocked. To the right again, he blocked again. She jumped and went to strike down. He blocked. She jumped to the right and he soon blocked another strike. When did the same to the right and he still blocked. She knew that she was not getting an opening this way. So she jumped back.

He then dove close to her and whacked down. She was just about able to block the blade and found that she must have been stronger than other people. Yet the power made her arms shake slightly. This forced her to grip the blade harder. She was struck again and again and again, each time she was able to block. She was so concentrated on the blade that she failed to see the foot in her side.

She flew to the left. She almost fell into the lava if she did not force her blade down to slow herself down. She let out a sigh as she stopped right before the lava. She then looked up at the man. He was already on top of her. He hit her in the stomach again and again and again. Then she dropped the sword and grabbed his heel and pulled herself forward. She dived away from the lava. Yet he lost his balance. Soon his weight caused him to lose balance even more. With a scream he fell into the lava.

She looked at it in disbelief. She could not believe that she had just won. 

Did I really just do that? Or was this a strange dream?

No. If it was he would have turned into those witches and beat me.

Scar Parents Fight Part Three

  Hunter’s Defence  Scar opened her eyes. She then walked down the stairs. She slowly took out her homework, just to take her mind off the day before she started doing it. She started with her maths to fode her mind to focus. She then moved onto literacy. After she had done both her mind felt sharp and clear of all of the upset. She looked up, it was half past seven. She then took a slice of bread. She then put it in the toaster and pulled out a tin of beans. Half of them had already been eaten the day feforeshe then put it in the bowl and then put it in the microwave for a minute. As she waited she picked up a newspaper. Three women arrested. They claimed to be witches yet none have any drugs in their system. They were arrested  for killing four children. When asked why they claimed  it was to obtain power. So they've been arrested. Good! She heard the beeping and soon put the beans on the plate then took the toast out and soon took out a fork. After ripping the toast in half she

The Nine Dragons The Serpent Dragon Part Three

  The Boa Army Loc was working hard in the field. It was getting to evening time. She had found that she liked working there as a farmer. There was just something so satisfying in doing hard work and made the food taste better and she slept better too. She could see herself doing this for the rest of her life however long that would be, yet she knew that she could not. Regardless of how much she liked the village and the people there. She had noticed that the people there looked almost like the people in her world just without any pupils and they were weaker too. She also noticed that despite this, they were all hard working and nothing was eaten until they had done their work. During this time she had completely recovered her whole energy and strength from all of the battles that she had on that day. She had also been able to gather her thoughts and psychology recovered and was able to have her time of mourning her losses from her rebellion. Yet she found that this might have been due

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Six

 The Purple Monster  “Why?” “Open the book and put all of the other Purple Artefacts into the page that it fits.” Doormaze nodded as she opened the book. On the first page as a hole where she put the Purple Purl in. The page glowed and for a moment. When the glowing died down the purl was in the page, almost like a picture. She then turned another page. There was another hole with a flower hole in. She then placed the Purple Flower in. It glowed and soon the flower was in the book. She turned the page, where she placed the Purple Feather in.  Once it became a picture the book glowed. Soon light flooded the room. All had to close their eyes as the light became far too bright. Then Doormaze no longer felt the book in her hands. She opened her eyes to see a light above her hands almost like a miniature star. What is this? Then it became so bright she had to close her eyes again. Then she felt something covering her body. It felt light and comfortable. Her eyes opened to see that she was c

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Four

  The Purple Book They travelled down the cave in West Mountain for an entire day. Yet they did not leave until the following day. They left the cave to see a group of small houses. They were all small and in the style of King Garnet’s castle. “This is the abandoned town of Faiton. It’s here somewhere. So I think we will have to go in them to find it. You need not worry, there has not been a single person seen here in decades.” The other three nodded. “And what does this next artefact look like?” “It is a purple book. It is made from the same material as the crystal flower.” “Right. Then, let’s split up and explore every house.” Doormaze spoke, punching her fist. “And mark the door of the house that has been checked and leave the door open while it's being checked.” “Good thinking.” They all split and walked into the first house that was closest to them. They all started on the ground floor. Then the first floor and the second floor. Upon seeing nothing, they left the house. They p

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Three

  The Purple Flower They, because it was late when they reached the top chamber, decided to take a break. They lit a fire and, after cooking a small stew, started to eat. “Now, tomorrow, where to next?” “Well, Doormaze, we must travel over the Flower Bridge. It used tobe a small village on a large plot of land that the other mouth of the cave leads to. The houses were too and far between. It was mainly covered in many different purple flowers.” “And that’s why it’s called Flower Bridge?” “Well, that is because of the plot of land that joins the East Mountain, which we are in, and West Mountain, which is where the Purple Flower is in, is naturally formed.” “And there is nothing underneath it.” “No.” “Well,” She said, finishing her meal. “That’s something to sleep on.” After they all ate their meal,they went to sleep. Doormaze dreamed of Natalie again. She opened her, now dragon, eyes. She walked over to the dragons. They were sound asleep. She smiled as she turned away from them. She wa

Scar Parents Fight Part Four

  Mother’s Knife Scar woke. She saw Morara right in front of her. She dived back as she punched her. She tried to unbuckle, yet she noticed that she soon noticed that it was jammed. She tried to pull the belt but that too was jammed. She tried to pull it again and again and again but it did nothing. She looked up in fear as she saw the knife coming at her. She quickly dived out of the way then the knife turned to her. She tried to punch her but she caught her wrist. She tried to pull her hand out of her hand. Yet she was too strong. She saw the knife getting closer and closer. She hit the arm as hard as she could which made her drop the knife. She then finally pulled out more of her belt and fell out. She then felt a slit in her arm. She let out a whimper as she looked up at Morana went to stab her again and again. She kicked her again and again and again. She looked at both Alex, who was unconscious. She drove her hands to his belt and she pulled the belt and he hit his head as he fel

Scar Parents Fight Final Part

  Assassin’s Sacrifice  Charlotte, knowing that none of them had any time or chance to call an ambulance, ran. She knew where the hospital was and that none of them had any time to lose. She ran down the street as fast as she could. Yet it must have been obvious where she was running to as Morana looked at her innanyer and knew in that moment she would kill to stop her from going there.  Her parents had the exact expression on their faces when she had to stop pretending that she was a boy. After all, they always wanted a boy and when she was born a girl they tried to turn her into one. But the only thing that reminded them that she was a girl was her name, which they shortened to Charlie at one point. Just to keep the illusion that she was a boy alive in their deluded minds. The only thing that got her out of that situation was the series of dead girls that were her sisters and only one son being alive at the cost of her neglect. Van Kira, she remembered his name was. “Oh no you don’t!
