Galactic Earth (28 page)

Sharp fangs hung out in front from the roof of the creature’s mouth as it stood in over everyone.

“Ok lady, your turn,” said Larson pulling her up.

Sarah’s mouth fell open as her eyes unblinkingly stared at the monster.

Intuitively reacting, she pulled out a gun from a slot on her calf and fired multiple rounds. The bullets bounced off of Draco’s frame as he glared at her with piercing eyes.

“Here try this,” Larson said bringing her his spare laser gun.

Sarah desperately tried to lift it with her broken back.

“Ha, ha, here let me help,” said Larson.

Together they fired the weapon at Draco. The laser beam was unable to pierce through his skin, making Sarah feel helpless. As if reacting to her fear, Draco reached for her, but was denied as Daniel dove in pushing her out of the way.

Daniel quickly chucked a grenade, causing Larson’s balding hair to jump up.

“You fool!” he shouted as the bomb blew up.

The explosion disposed most of the evil elite members, but not Draco. Angry, he grabbed the survivors and fed on them, throwing them away when finished. Muscled Laheed was tossed like a toy after providing Draco some ample nourishment. Gudama and his fleet were horrified to witness this.

Larson screamed in fear holding his hands out in front as Draco snatched him, biting his head right off his mechanical neck. Draco then set his sights on Daniel and Sarah who were frozen in fear, Draco’s erection rising at the sight of her.

Gudama struggled as hard as he could with all his might, but it only gave more strength to the strap. Draco smiled, displaying his dinosaur sized teeth at the sight of him. Gudama knew he had to do something realizing his fleet had no chance, but was unable to break free. Suddenly, an unknown power surged within him as he looked over and noticed Yoko sending him his energy through a hand as he lay in the rubble. With one big pull, Gudama stood up and let out at a roar, finally breaking free.

Draco turned his head surprised by Gudama’s escape. Gudama released a battle cry and unleashed a punch fury like a machine gun to the monster’s torso, followed by a hard heavy fist right square in the nose, throwing his whole body into it and a right hook across the face. Draco turned his neck back to face him uninjured much to everyone’s amazement. He pushed Gudama thirty feet back with one hand.

While lying, Gudama noticed the bomb and picked it up. As he got up, his retina revealed Draco flying right at him roaring. With one hand, Gudama blocked Draco’s face while being forced to run back from his strength. Quickly thinking, Gudama shoved the bomb inside Draco’s mouth and slammed it shut with both hands, and performed a Judo Tomoe Nage throw using Draco’s own force against him, hurling him far away.

Getting up, Draco cleared his throat and felt funny as he swallowed the bomb while being thrown. He approached closer as mad as a python. Gudama withdrew the detonator embedded from his belt and held it up.

“Sorry guys,” he said looking at his fleet.

Daniel and Sarah closed their eyes bracing each other as Yoko started praying to go to heaven.

“Looks like we’ll all go,” Gudama said smiling.

Draco’s eyes widened as Gudama activated the detonator. Instantly Draco’s body exploded, shaking the entire atmosphere from the force.

After the debris and dust had settled, Gudama noticed Draco’s lower body was standing intact.

“Must be our lucky,” he said seeing the sight.

“Thank God,” said Daniel falling on Sarah’s lap.

Their hearts raced in fear as Draco’s lower half started squirming. Right before their eyes, Draco’s upper body regenerated. He opened his eyes filled with a berserker’s rage.

“Guess I spoke to soon,” said Gudama amazed.

He charged at Draco who smacked him with the back of one hand, sending Gudama crashing into rocks. Within a blink of an eye, Draco was in front of Daniel and Sarah. Draco picked up Sarah, saliva falling from his teeth as he laid eyes on her.

Daniel attempted to save her, but Draco caught him and crushed his torso with his inhuman grip.

“Daniel!” Sarah said seeing him scream.

He fell and fainted from the trauma and Draco looked up. With a flap of his wings, Draco flew out of the base right through the ceiling.

“No way,” Gudama said.

Checking Daniel’s pulse, Gudama lifted him up on his shoulder and went to Yoko. Using spiritual energy, he healed most of his injuries.

“Thank you,” said Yoko.

“Can you fly?” asked Gudama.

Yoko concentrated and floated in the air, “Yes.”

“We must return to the surface and warn everyone,” said Gudama.

Yoko carried them and they flew up back to the surface using the large hole Draco left behind.

Outside, they flew back to the San Diego base where Gudama instructed Yoko to inform the military and have them alert everyone to stay indoors. American military personnel were confused over the situation, but were quick to follow Gudama’s orders and sent Daniel to medical attention.

Before leaving, Gudama was grabbed on the shoulder by Yoko.

“Focus and be safe. I believe in you.”

“I will,” Gudama said gesturing to leave, but was still held by Yoko.

“In ancient scripture, it is said that a divine being will arrive from the heavens and destroy evil with light. I believe you are that divine being, I believe you are, The God of Earth,” said Yoko.

Gudama relaxed and placed a hand on Yoko’s face acknowledging his prophecy. Yoko nodded and left to carry out his instructions.

Hastily, Gudama entered the teleportation portal back to the space base where he briefly explained the situation, demanding that they track Draco. Air control found an unidentified bogey zooming through the skies towards the east coast.

“Set the coordinates to New York,” Gudama said, “Refrain from sending backup, he’s too dangerous.”

He then turned his neck facing the satellite image of his adversary.

“God give me strength.”

The location was set and Gudama warped through the teleportation portal to the city.

Unbeknownst to Gudama, a sole survivor of the Illuminati arrived and activated a portable device which sent inconspicuous life sapping negative electromagnetic frequencies designed to disturb Gudama and all lifeforms on the planet.

Up atop a skyscraper, Draco held an unconscious Sarah above his erect genitalia. His excitement grew as he stripped some of her clothing off. Draco’s eyes enlarged as he slightly cut her skin with a nail only to lick and drink her blood.

Zipping through the skies, Gudama franticly searched for his target. His anxiety was dispelled when he picked up Andy telepathically.

“Gudama calm down!”

“Andy, I’m sorry I couldn’t stop him. One of my men betrayed us,” Gudama said while searching.

“He was possessed by Illuminati’s dark powers,” replied Andy.

Gudama swallowed saliva, “Can I beat Draco?”

“Gudama focus, you’ll never defeat him in your present state!” advised Andy.

Stopping the hover board, Gudama remained still in the sky. He took a deep breathe filling his lungs with vital oxygen and nourished his soul with prana.

“Concentrate,” said Andy slowly.

With a clear head, Gudama sensed Draco’s energy signature which was about forty miles away.

Following the trace, Gudama soon saw the sin Draco planned on doing in the distance.

“No you don’t!” said Gudama withdrawing his lance. It turned into light as Gudama soared through the air and slashed Draco’s sexual organ while snatching Sarah out of his hands flying away on the hover board.

Draco yelled violently in pain, squeezing his fists so hard that blood dripped down his wrists. Killing Gudama was all that consumed him now as he had permanently taken away his pleasure. Gudama flew down to safety and gave Sarah to paramedics. People crowded over to see what was going on as Gudama demanded they return to their homes.

“Gudama!” shouted a familiar sweet bubbly voice.

“Layla,” Gudama said surprised, “What the heck are you doing here?”

“I’m here to cover my next big story,” she said with a confident smile.

Gudama closed his eyes shaking his head, “Layla listen to me, you can’t be here it’s too dangerous.” He said gesturing with a hand. Draco suddenly flew by quickly casting a momentary shadow over them. Concealing himself in the high skies, Draco circled behind tall buildings, locking his predator senses on Gudama.

“Gudama, what was that?” said Layla scared.

“No time to explain, you’ve got to get out of here now before it -”

Draco swooped down and swept Gudama away in a blink of Layla’s eye. Gudama fought back, punching Draco repeatedly in the face. It only seemed to anger the demon as his grip around Gudama’s neck became tighter. Crushing his throat, the draconian monster let out a high pitched screech, piercing Gudama’s ear drum while the sound wave pulled back his skin and hair. Summoning strength from within, Gudama barely managed to chock Draco with both hands and delivered a desperate blow capable of knocking out an elephant, but only enough to temporarily faze Draco cutting off his screech.

Battling back, Gudama opened a barrage of punches, chops, and palm strikes only to be mentally deranged by the creature’s psychic hypnotic wave much like the underground lizards’ except ten times more powerful. Gudama screamed as he held his head with both hands. Draco chucked him miles away crashing into his lighthouse. Gudama struggled to get back up from the rubble. Draco thundered the floor as he landed his sharp dinosaur like teeth glistened as he smiled.

Letting out a battle cry, Gudama charged and struck with a punch only to be easily caught by Draco’s massive claws, stopping his strike instantly like a child against an adult. He knifed the middle of Gudama’s arm causing it to bend as Gudama threw another punch which bounced off of Draco like a hammer against a tire. Draco shoved him back several meters with one hand.

Various utensils, kitchen tools, culinary items, chairs, and other furniture levitated as Draco used his mind power to attack with them. Gudama took a defensive stance as the items were all telekinetically thrown at him repeatedly. He pounced forward and threw a couple strikes, Draco dodging all of them. Parrying a lunging punch, Draco went for a hit only to be mule kicked in the face. The momentary shock of being hit paused him in his tracks as he was more amused rather than hurt. Draco met another fist to his big gremlin nose as he turned his neck and allowed himself to receive Gudama’s fists of fury. Gudama threw punches like a machine gun with one arm while summoning power within the other. He went for a finishing blow after charging up, but his fist was caught again by Draco.

Crushing his hand, Draco smiled as Gudama grunted in pain and kicked him on the chest sending him flying against the wall nearly breaking a hole. Draco let out another high pitched screech wave which knocked Gudama all the way to the boat area, bouncing off random objects before crashing into the dock. Following his smell, Draco soon found Gudama lying defenseless. Draco’s tongue wiped his mouth on numerous occasions as he walked closer to his target. Before he could have his delight, a flesh piercing sound was heard underneath his pecs. Draco looked down to find the end of a wooden harpoon covered in gooey dark blood sticking out of his gut.

“Well, I’ll be dam, didn’t think that antique would work,” said Jack Spades on his boat.

Carrying a metal harpoon, Jack used his javelin skills and threw it at Draco, making clean contact with his upper back. The spear bounced off as though it were a spoon.

“What the, the ole’ wood pierces, but steel don’t?”

Draco turned around furious. He pulled out the wooden harpoon out of his stomach. His tail swiftly wrapped around Jack’s waist squeezing him.

“Oh blimey!” he cried.

The tail’s grip grew tighter.

“Flipping hell,” Jack said feeling his bones crack.

Gudama slid his arms underneath Draco’s armpits and clenched him in a lock. Draco shook violently, growling as he struggled to get Gudama off, swinging Jack around who was still caught in his tail. Gudama bit Draco ferociously, causing him to finally drop Jack in the water.

Striking like a whip lash, Draco’s tail inflicting unbearable pain to Gudama’s back making him loosen his grip. Draco reached behind and flipped him down hard on the dock, and paralyzed him with his telepathic control. Draco went for a killing feast, but froze in petrified pain. He looked up to see none other than Jack’s son, John Spades, who launched another wooden spear at Draco’s forehead, splinters splitting through his eyes. Draco’s eyes rolled as he fell flat on his back.

John splashed some water on Gudama, “Hey sir, are you alright?” he asked tending to Gudama who mumbled like a retard, his mind deranged from Draco’s psychic assault.

“Dad,” John called searching for his father!

He dove in the water and pulled Jack out to sit by the boat.

“Dad?” he said holding his father.

Jack coughed up some salty water, but was ok. John helped him up to sit.

“Is he ok?” Jack asked regarding Gudama.

“Come on sir, snap out of it,” said John who went over, lightly tapping Gudama’s cheeks.

Jack had John fetch his tools and used his Navy medical knowledge to instruct John to apply some techniques. After a good five minutes, Gudama came back to his senses.

“Oh man, I thought you were a goner,” said John.

Gudama arose with a headache.

“Thought you’d never wake up,” said Jack.

“Thank God for my super healing,” Gudama replied gathering himself.

He suddenly held his head, pain piercing his skull.

“You ok?” asked Jack.

“That creature screwed up my brain,” he said holding his skull with both hands hunched over.

To all of their surprise, Draco’s body began to spasm. Much to their amazement, he arose with a bull’s expression after seeing red.

“No freaking way,” said Jack.

Draco grabbed the wood stuck in his head with both hands and pulled it out while grunting.

Gudama’s neurons healed as he felt better.

Wood, that’s it, thought Gudama remembering Draco-reptilian weakness to wood elements.

“Get out of here, now,” said Gudama.

“Kill that son of a b -” Jack said coughing as John carried him father away.

Draco enlarged his eyes to use his mind control, but instead felt a sharp pain in his head realizing that the last blow did permanent damage to his pituitary gland disabling his ability.

“Heh, looks like you’re out of luck,” said Gudama.

The horned beast roared and flew at high speed, snatching Gudama and returned to the city.

Draco wrapped its arms around Gudama’s torso and dove down head first, slamming him into the ground and chucked him away colliding with the road. Gudama lay defenseless as the monster walked tall towards him while laughing.

“Argh…Andy I sure could use your help right now,” Gudama murmured struggling to get up.

Raising his claw, the Draco prepared to finish him.

“Die human,” he said in a demonic native tongue.

Draco let out a battle cry ready to strike, but just before he could deliver the final blow, Gudama’s hover board knocked him away. Upon getting back up, an angry Draco was met by a fury of flames. Gudama struggled to see none other than Layla with a flamethrower.

“Layla?” he said regaining strength.

“Burn!” she shouted firing away.

The creature roared in pain from the intense heat.

Stretching his neck in both directions, Gudama was recovered and got up. Seeing his adversary, Draco flew at Gudama, knocking him twenty feet away, landing on his back.

“Gudama,” Layla cried!

Draco saddled up and started choking him severely while drooling from the mouth. His sharp teeth glistened as he cut the air off from Gudama’s windpipe. Flames from behind engulfed the creature, hurling it off of Gudama.

“Layla stop, don’t go near it!”

Layla opened fire letting out all of her rage. Quickly, the horned beast shielded itself with one of its wings as it took a horse stance. With a grunt and a massive swipe of the arm, Draco sent a powerful gust of wind from the force of his strike, cutting the flamethrower in half right in Layla’s hands.

Running at full speed, Gudama tackled him before he could harm Layla, but Draco angrily elbowed the back of his head and threw him high into the sky nearing orbit. Flying up, the hideous monster tore his flesh viciously with its claws.

“Gudama, no,” Layla cried helplessly!

Fighting back, Gudama punched and kicked however, his strikes didn’t even phase the steel like musculature of Draco. He smiled in predetermined victory and slashed Gudama across his upper body.

Layla’s heart sank as she watched him fall to his defeat, bits of his fabric floated down in a zigzag fashion.

Military choppers arrived on the scene opening fire on the massive demon. Draco laughed as the bullets bounced off of his body having no effect. Layla ran to Gudama’s aid, lifting him on her lap. He was badly injured with blood stains everywhere from the several cuts given by Draco’s horrendously devastating assault.

Andy opened his eyes from his meditation high up in space as he looked on in concern.

“Hit it with everything you’ve got!” commanded the leader of American air force, launching a missile at the evil entity. Draco smirked and with a flick of his arm deflected the missile destroying a nearby fighter jet, which crashed into another causing a chain explosion much to the delight of the horned beast. Draco’s huge snake like eyes glowed as he fired a thunderous dark purple white beam of darkness, obliterating the other aircrafts. Draco laughed at the destruction as the military proved ineffective against his power.

“Gudama, Gudama!” cried Layla, “Please open your eyes Gudama,” she said sniffling.

“I’m sorry Layla, I tried. I tried to save the earth, but was just too weak,” he said.

“No Gudama, you’re not, God is within you, don’t give up!”

“I’m sorry Layla,” he barely mustered with his breath, “he’s just too strong. I failed.”

Tears ran down Layla’s rosy cheeks, falling on Gudama’s face. One fell on his eye, which enabled him to open it.

“You didn’t fail you’ve shown me compassion I never thought existed. Your ideas, thinking, and kindness, your example has enlightened me…and I adore you for it,” she said brushing his hair with her hand.

Gudama stared at her listening to every word.

Bombs and screams of terror filled the atmosphere, but the sounds of horror didn’t seem to affect the both of them. It was as if they were in a bubble of bliss while Armageddon occurred on the outside. At that moment nothing mattered to Gudama except the soft spoken words of Layla’s calming sweet voice. He felt like he was being held by an angel as he gazed at her beautiful gem like eyes and radiating playful hair that flowed with the wind.

Reinforcements pursued Draco head on dispersing endless rounds and heavy artillery. People ran for their lives while others watched in disbelief that neither the military nor Gudama was able to stop the hideous creature. All had seemed lost. Religious individuals felt the event was prophecy manifesting. Draco to them was the devil himself, here to bring terror and destruction. Media recorded the epic battle live, broadcasting all over from home televisions to mobile devices. Everyone was turned into the great holy battle.

Faith was diminishing as the news camera caught Gudama lying defeated with Layla attending to him.

A pastor who was watching in church shook his head at the sight of this with eyes closed. With little hope left, he along with many others around the world did what they always did in desperate times, the only thing left that they could do - pray.
