Capítulo 12: Is this it?
Malakai heard the sounds of growling through the cheers of the people. He looked behind him to the walls that lifted revealing cages and one of the cages was slowly opening. As soon as the cage opened, the creature began to creep out of it.
The first thing Malakai saw was a limb stepping forward with green furry skin. After the first limb, was another one. Slowly, it walked out revealing a creature with six arms, and a head with no eyes or nose but a wide mouth filled with razor sharp teeth. Its body grew out into a tail after the six limbs and it slithered across the floor.
Malakai was paralysed with fear, he had dropped the tray in his arm on the floor. Causing the beast to immediately turn in his direction. He was too shocked to move and just stared at the monstrosity in front of him.
"Get him!"
"Chow him down!"
"Crush his bones!"
The audience were already crazy seeing the creature stare down the boy. His petrified state made it even better for them. "What is this madness?" He thought. "I was brought to be eaten to be fed to this?!" He wondered his body already visibly shaking.
"Hey kids, were going to have so much fun together!"
"It's time for them to be used."
"It's time to meet your owners."
"Your death depends on you and you alone."
"You have to impress Madam G."
"I do love just watching them."
"You will be given an insight to what the supernaturals have to deal with."
Everything began to make sense to him. All the words he had heard them say from time to time, they had been hinting at this. "Those people, these people, abducted us to be killed in this way?" He thought shakily. He then remembered what he held in his hands. Inside the tray was a small knife and that was all.
"I am supposed to fight that with this?!" He looked up at the beast who sniffed around for its next meal. Malakai, no matter how scared he was knew he had to run. He took a small step back and then another and another. But, then he stepped on the red cloth that initially was over the tray. As he was about to move back again, he tripped on the part that tangled over his feet and fell to the floor with his bum. His fall made a small thud and in that instant, the beast rushed forward at him.
"AAAARGHH!" He screamed at the top of his lungs watching the beast launch at him. His screams echoed through the room due to the microphone they had him wear. The beast sprinted and opened its mouth to chomp down on him. He quickly moved his body out of the way with his legs. The beast missed him just by an inch and hit it's head on the platform. That was lucky but he was still trapped with it.
He immediately got off his feet with tears in his eyes doing his best to run away from the menacing creature. He did his best to keep it in but couldn't help but keep scream in fear. "I want, I want to go home, I don't want to die!" He cried. "Let me go!"
"Yes, run! Use those little legs of yours!" The audience cheered and laughed. He reached one of the cages and banged on it.
"Open up! Please let me go!" As he shouted, another beast slammed at the bars from the inside if the cage startling him and causing him to move back. "Another one? I'm, I'm trapped." He realized and then kept running as the one on stage with him had continued the chase, crawling with its limbs and its tail-like body swaying from side to side as it glided through the floor.
"AARGHH!" He kept screaming and running. He could see the creature was on his tail as he looked back. He looked in fear as he saw it launch itself forward and at him. The beast pounced on the boy and immediately opened its mouth to chomp down on him.
"AAAARGHH!!" His screams filled the arena, booming from every speaker present. The audience went crazy with cheers when he was caught. Slowly, blood seeped out from where both the boy and beast were.
Watching from backstage, the four other kids looked on in horror at the scene. They immediately tried to run, heading for the doors in the room but none were opening. "Let us go, Please!!" They kept crying. Some of them even calling for their mothers.
"AAAH! AARGHH! AAAARGHH!!" Malakai's screams got louder and louder. He was underneath the beast with his arm up, he had the knife held firm in his right hand and used it to repeatedly stab the creature while pushing its head with his other hand. It had already bitten down on his left shoulder, immediately tearing up his flesh and almost crushing his bones. Still, Malakai didn't stop pushing it away with it.
Getting stabbed had caused it to let go a bit letting out a cry of its own. Malakai didn't stop and kept going, fortunately, the skin of the beast was easily penetrable. The beast then lifted its six limbs up preparing to crush Malakai with them. Seeing that millisecond chance, Malakai immediately rolled away and got back on his feet holding onto his left bleeding shoulder. He was covered in blood stains of red which was his and green which belonged to the beast.
"He's, he's still alive!"
"I am definitely asking them for this one."
"His blood, his blood...can you smell that?!"
Reactions from the crowd was deafening but Malakai could pay no attention to that and only worried for his life. He tried to look for a place to run to, but there wasn't any. "What do I do? What do I do? Father... Mother, I want to be with you!" He wept even more. "If anyone can, please save me! Let me out!" His futile attempt to run away was thwarted as the beast launched at him again. Malakai did his best and moved out of the way.
He immediately lifted his arm to try and stab the beast through the head, but it was fast and attacked him instead.
It moved its head and opened its mouth revealing the already blood stained ravenous teeth. It's teeth dug into Malakai's stomach and the force of the pounce pushed his and the beast's body to the center of the stage.
"AAAH! AARGHH!!" He shouted as the creature tore off the flesh on his torso and buried its head in him once more.
