The Adventures of Goji VIII: Call of the Bird wyverns!

Goji woke up in the middle of the night, with Miki beside him. He woke up because he heard a noise coming from outside. He grabed Faded memories, since you could never be too careful. He yelled out to the night.

"Hello? Anyone there?"

No answer.

Then he heard a roar. A dark shape came from the shadows. Goji prepared Faded memories for battle.

The shape revealed itself as a Goa Magara, The black corrosion dragon! Goji prepared for an attack.

It never came. Goji was confused.

''Goa Magaras are supposed to be dangerous, yet this one shows no hostility. ''Goji thought to himself.

Then, the Dragon spoke.

"Goji.... Your mother would be proud of you."

Goji was even more confused. "How are you speaking my language? Why are you not speaking in the monster tongue? How do you know my mother?"

The Goa Magara laughed.

"If you let me answer your questions one at a time, I will answer. Firstly, I can speak your language because I am not a true monster. Secondly, I knew your mother vey well. I have been watching you for years, as a father should have."

''Like a father should have? ''Goji wondered. What does he mean?

Then the goa magara was gone, replaced by a human in Fatalis armor, just like Goji's father in his mother's stories. Then it hit him. This was Goji's father: Hurricurse! Hurricurse spoke in a grim tone.

"Son... I came to warn you that you and Miki are in grave danger. The Black Dire Miralis, Nigrum Cor, wants to destroy us both, and he will do it by whatever means nessasary, even if he has to strike at what we hold dearly."

Goji was confused on what his father meant.

"Why does he want to destroy us?"

Hurricurse shook his head.

"Because we are the ones who legend says will destroy him. Not now... not tomorrow... but soon enough! Son... you have found your inner shapeshifter, but you have yet to master it. Take your time, and learn to control it until the time comes for you to confront Nigrum Cor. For now, finish your hunter's training, then once you have become a fully realized hunter, practice on your shapeshifting powers. That is all I can tell you"

Then Goji's vision went blank as he yelled out: "FATHER!"

He woke up. It was all a dream, but why was it so real? Could it have been a preminition?

Miki woke up. "Is everything ok Goji?"

Goji looked at Miki. "Yes... its alright."

He actually was not sure at all if it was ok. Goji was actually scared for Miki. If what Hurricurse said was true, then Nigrum Cor would be willing to kill Miki if it was nessasary for him to get Goji into his grasp.

But he did not dwell on that now. He and Miki had to go on their patrol in the Caravan.

They had reached the White Desert. The Caravan had to go through it to get to the Scorched Volcano, which they also had to go through in order to get to the Drenched jungle. Once they reached there, they could go to the Underground Caverns, and finally, to thier final destination, the Bitterchilled Tundra, Which they had to go through in order to get to the City of destination: Central City.

Goji forgot how hot it was in the White desert. His Barioth armor was not suited for it. He got his cold drinks and gulped one of them down.

He noticed that Miki did not bring anything, she was sweating. Goji came to her and gave her most of his remaining cold drinks. Miki mattered to him more than anything else.

When nightfall came, It releived the Caravan of the heat, but not from the threat of a desert dwelling monster, or thirst.

Goji stayed up all night. He decided to keep watch over the caravan while everyone was alsleep. But did it mostly because he wanted to be sure that Miki would be safe.



Morning came, and the Caravan was on the move. The Popos started to become weary again, as a Qurupeco was circling in the sky. The bird wyvern landed in front of the Caravan. Goji readied his Faded memories, while Miki applied power coatings to her Boltsender bow. The Qurupeco gave a screech. It started to swell up it's vocal sac, and let out a roar that sounded like something from a nightmare.

Then the qurupeco flew off, but not before Miki fired an arrow that hit it in the right eye, blinding it for life.

Then out of nowhere, a Tigrex appeared!



The Tigrex gave out a roar! Goji knew that Tigrex were highly feared for their ferocity and speed. Goji and Miki were in fore a fight of their lives.

More coming soon....
