Part Six - A - Chapter Seven White Wolf
Jentry sat up from where he was laying on the ground; he looked at the motionless bodies of his sister and the boy. Lisa’s eyes opened and her lifeless body suddenly arched into the air as her life forced returned to her fragile shell. Looking up at her brother tears flowing down her face, she asked. Were we both really dead or was this some awful dream? Then looking over at young White Wolf who still lay motionless beside them on the ground, Lisa realized that it was not a dream! She moved over to where the child’s body was and lifted the boy up cradling him in her arms while holding him close to her. Why? Why did it have to end like this? Why was but a child given such a huge responsibility? She asks.
*
*
Jentry shook his head slightly as he answered. I’m not sure Sis; I wish I could answer your questions! But, not even I have the answers you seek. However, I can tell you this; there’s a great evil loose upon the world. I do not understand what all this means but I do know that if we are alive again after being dead, then we must find the faith and strength inside ourselves to believe that he will also return to the living as well!
*
*
Lisa looked down at the child’s hand and saw the Blue Diamond clutched tightly in his grip. She closed her hand over his and felt a strange tingling sensation and a burst of heat shoot through her hand and travel up her arm! Little White Wolf’s eyes fluttered and his body heaved up into the air as the breath of life returned to him! He’s alive! Brother! He’s breathing! Look she clambered as the boy now opened his eyes and stared up at them!
*
*
Water! I need water! He said as he tried to sit up. Water will replenish my strength; I need water!
Jentry turned and looked away upon hearing a familiar voice coming from behind him, somewhere amid the thick blanket of smoke, which was now covering the whole valley during and after the battle that had taken place. It was Chip Sanders his best friend! Over here! He yelled back in his direction. We are over here! Near the tree line! Soldier! He yelled once more.
*
*
Chip and several others of his soldiers made their way to where they were; they brought with them Billy Two Feathers and the medicine women. Pointing with his hand, Sanders ordered his unit to take up a defensive parameter around them! Secure the area! We may not be out of the thick of battle yet! Skinner and his men gave up too quickly! They may double back and try to ambush us! Sanders yelled.
*
*
Anyone in need of medical attention Sir, he asked? Then looking at Jentry he smiled and said, lucky for you that you insisted that everyone in our unit including you be tagged with a homing beacon! We lost your signal for a short time and plotted your last known position; then through the process of trial an error, we figured that your best route was through the valley and over the next mountain range in a straight line to the base! We caught some chatter from Skinner and his men on the listening post and couldn’t help but see the smoke from their rocket launchers! To be honest Sir, we thought you were all likely dead! We engaged the enemy and forced them to retreat! We found these two survivors and they claimed to know you well! They told us of a child you had with you and that you were also all very much alive! I’m glad we listened to them because your life signs faded and for all intent and purposes we had to agree with our equipment!
*
*
Well your gadgets malfunction! You can see we’re all alive and well! Now let’s get out of here and return to the safety of the base soldier! No sense taking any chances! We all need to rest because our mission is not over! We need to get this boy deep into the Devil’s Triangle! Jentry snapped at him. Noticing the strange look on his friends face, Jentry replied. No time to explain yet! I will fill you in once we are all back at the base!
*
*
Yes sir! What are we to do with the other two civilians and their friends that are with them?
Jentry looked in the direction of the medicine women, Billy Two Feathers and the whole pack of wolves that now stood near them. The child’s mother and friend are to come with us! Do not fire upon the wolves as they belong to the child! They will attack if they feel he is in danger! They will find their way to the safety of the base on their own!
*
Sanders looked in the direction of the wolves; he had never witness anything quite like this before It was like they were looking right through him and deep into his soul! If you ask me Sir, they kind of give me a weird feeling! Almost as if they know exactly what we‘re thinking! He replied.*
*
He reached out his hand in the direction of little White Wolf to help him to his feet without thinking and was forced to back away from the child! The wolves advanced in his direction, growling and snarling as they quickly move between the child and the soldier! Chip raised his rifle and was about to fire his weapon when the child sprang to his feet and motioned the wolves away with but a hand jester and a look!
*
*
Put aside your weapon! They will not harm you! They do not like strangers to come too close to me! They wish only to protect their cub! He said.
*
*
Lisa spoke now for she knew the soldier well! It’s ok Chip! Just lower your weapon and back away very slowly! Whatever you do though, do not break eye contact with the wolves! The Alpha male and female will take it as a sign of weakness and attack you if you do! They’re fierce when it comes to protecting their young! White Wolf is their child! They adopted him into the pack. Just move away very slowly and keep your distance; they’ll not attack you if you do as I say! In time they will come to know you as a friend and will accept you as well!
*
*
Moving back slowly, while trying to defuse the situation Sanders spoke to Lisa again. So how did you manage to get yourself in this situation? The last time we both talked, you were planning a vacation. I waited for you to call me at the base but you never called. Was it something I did or said? I thought our date went really good and was disappointed you didn’t call back.
*
*
Lisa smiled. She did not bother to answer him; she had very strong feelings for Chip. He was everything she could ever hope for in a mate. Chip was great looking, very strong, kind, honest to a fault and extremely passionate as well as smart. But still she felt the relationship was moving too fast and had decided to slow it down some. When it came to relationships, she really sucked big time and at the first sign that one was becoming serious, she would bolt and run away.
*
*
Well it really doesn’t matter Lisa. I’m sure you will talk to me about it soon, he said as he helped to her feet. We need to get you and the other civilians to safety! This is not a great place to be at the moment! Skinner and the others could return and re-engage us yet again! Although I really feel we kicked his ass big time. I don’t want to hang around out here to find out. Chip snapped. Then turning to Commander Jentry he said, we are ready to move out Sir.
*
*
Lisa let go of the boy’s hand when his mother took him in her arms and hugged him. The medicine women looked up at her and smiled. Thank you Lisa and commander for protecting the child of the wolf! Billy and I saw what the two of you did! There’s no greater love then that of one which lays down their life for yet another! The Great Spirit has assured me that you two will see the Gates of Atlantis! Spirit tells me that you will witness many things within the great city! Yet you will not be allowed to remember what you have seen. Spirit says that in time you and your brother will come to understand the reasons for this and that you both are to become leaders of the 14 tribes of mankind!
*
Although Lisa did not always understand what the medicine women told her, she had learned over the time she had known her to trust in what she said. White Wolf’s mother was very wise and always carried within her the wisdom of the ancient ones. She also was surrounded by a veil of secrecy! The child and she were linked together in many ways. The two of them also had the uncanny ability to dream the same dreams.
*
*
Lisa took one last look around the valley as they climb aboard the helicopter. She wanted to remember this place as well as this day because today’s event had changed her in several ways. She had always question life after death as well as the actual existence of a higher power. Was there really an intelligent life force capable of creating the very building blocks of life itself?
*
Today Lisa had witnessed the answers to all her questions as well as walked in the afterlife of the realm above! Yet who could she tell about this except those that were with her? No one else would believe her story even if she had told them anyways!
*
*
White Wolf reached over and took her hand, squeezing it gently he looked directly into her eyes. It’s ok Lisa. I would believe you! He said.
*
*
You’re a brat! You read my thoughts! She whispered as she pulled him to her and hugged him.
*
Jentry came to the back where the two of them were sitting. He was carrying what appeared to be a very thin black laptop in his hand. I need you to look at this kid and give me some input! He said, as he sat between his sister and him.
*
*
What is this device you want to show me? The child asked as he watched Jentry open its lid and turn it on. Is it a tracking system? He asked.
*
Yes it is kid! It’s very new and considered Top Secret! One day though it will revolutionize our world! This device is more than just a computer! In fact it can actually think for itself! This machine is capable of tapping into your subconscious and can actually take information from your thought patterns and create a very vivid image that is transferred into the viewing screen right here! He said as he pointed to the screen on the laptop. I’ll need to place these wire leads on your head though first. Don’t worry! It won’t hurt though! So just relax and what do you say? Shall we give it a try then?
*
*
White Wolf nodded his head in agreement and allowed Jentry to place the wire leads on his forehead!
*
*
Ok now just relax and try not to think of anything but the place you need to go to in the triangle. The machine will compute the information it receives from your thoughts and correlate it with the information stored already concerning the Devil’s Triangle. With any luck we may get lucky! He said, as they all watch the screen come alive.
*
*
Jentry looked at the screen and watched as the machine compiled the information it was receiving from the child’s mind. A three dimensional map appeared showing the Bermuda Triangle; was plotting a course from their present position to a bright red spot directly in the middle of the triangle. That is where I must go! White Wolf said, as he pointed to the now rapidly pulsating light on the monitor.
*
*
Staring at the monitor, Jentry looked somewhat puzzled as he replied to the child. Well I hope your right as there’s only open sea there. We can refuel while in route and according to this information, we should arrive at the location within a few short hours.
*
*
I don’t know what we will find there only that there is where I must go! White Wolf replied.
Ok kid we’ll leave for that location first thing in the morning! Right now though we all need to rest up a bit first. A hot meal and then a long soak in the hot tub seem like a great plan before taking the next part of the journey! We could all benefit from the down time! Jentry replied.
Holding the crystal tightly in his hand, White Wolf replied as he watched the crystal once more begin to glow brightly, its pulsating light created an eerie glow as it reflected off the interior of the helicopter.
*
*
No we must go now! There’s no time to wait! He replied.
*
*
