Path of Totality; A TDS Eclipse Event Story

🌘Chapter 2🌒

      Frost Spirit loomed over, glaring at them. "What are you two doing here?" he spoke to them, his voice soft yet icey. Commander tried to pull a reverse card, "We could ask you the same thing! What are you doing here?"

      "This is the Titan graveyard. For thousands of years we've buried our dead here. I thought you could tell by the stones," Frost Spirit waved his hand across, gesturing to all the tombstones.

      "So sorry someone made weird scribbles on them!" Commander jumped off the four wheeler and crossed his arms. "Titan tongue. That's how we write."

      Commander deflated a little. Oops. But Medic went to be the voice of reason before Commander would get them killed. "Frost Spirit, we haven't had any battles for at least a week now. Do you know what's been happening?"

      Frost Spirit seemed to go into thought. He looked around for a second before crouching down. "If you want to see then you'll have to hide in my coat. I don't want to start a whole fight," Frost Spirit placed down his hand for them to get on.

      Commander was about to reject the idea but Medic slapped him. "Just give me a minute," Medic turned to her Speedy zombie and smiled. He was scratching his chin. What an itchy boy. She went up to the Speedy and hugged him, to which she got one back.

      "Be good. I'll be back so don't try to destroy anything," Medic got a purr. She took it as understanding and gave him a scratch goodbye. Frost Spirit whispered to Commander, "Is she okay?" Commander shook his head, "We don't know but she's good at her job."

      Medic turned around with a huff, "I can hear you!" The two cringed at being caught, but let it go. Putting his hand down, he let the two Towers climb in. He put them in his coat, which so happened to have an inside pocket. They were snug as a bug!

      "I hope you're not fearful of heights," Frost Spirit warned as he took off again. But he kept low against the gravestones. Medic was having a blast while Commander was trying to hold in screams and onto his hat.

      The fog was still thick, but it seemed that Frost Spirit had no problem navigating through it. His wings would beat, keeping his best to stay at the low altitude he was at.

      Medic wondered how big this graveyard is. It was just gravestone after gravestone. She thought it would never stop!

      Well, it did stop after Frost Spirit slowed down and gently glided his feet to the ground. Medic and Commander still couldn't see through the fog.

      "Stay hidden, don't say a word. Just listen," Frost Spirit whispered. The two towers nodded and went further into the coat pocket, the two of them squished against each other. Medic wanted to risk taking a peek, but she knew better then to test fate.

      Commander whispered to her as Frost Spirit walked, "I have a bad feeling about this." Medic looked over and nodded. At the sound of voices, they hushed each other and began to listen closely.

      Medic began pinpointing voices she recognized. There was Lord Sinister, then she heard Fallen King. Molten Boss was here, so was an older foe of the towers', Raider Boss.

      She tried to point out more voices to the best of her ability. Was that Nuclear Fallen King she heard? She couldn't get the last few when a voice stood out from the rest.

      "Silence!" it was Void Reaver. Medic never heard the grand titan speak that much, but his voice was unique from the rest. Commander and Medic listened in, Frost Spirit giving them a pat of comfort.

      "From what we know, he was chased after. But by whom and for what purpose we do not know," Void Reaver huffed out as he stared down at the titan's body. It was a tragedy for the titans. Their sacred gravekeeper was dead.
