Azurvi recognized the monsters,
Kurs gift to the high emperor, war beasts; terrible fangs and
claws that never dulled. Speed like no other, these were the elite
guard of the high emperors troops. Why they were in the temple was
beyond her knowledge, but she knew in her heart that this was wrong.
Their presence shouldnt be even allowed to pass the threshold.

I see you took the long way my
dear. A ghostly voice appeared next to her, Azurvi turned her head
in disgust to see the small pale man holding a vial of the well
water.

How did you get that?

Youd be amazed at my
resources. Whats even more amazing is that these glorious cryptids
obey me, just with this vial of water. Now I know that youll tell
me where the other half of the key is, or else these innocents
as you call them, will pay for your stubbornness.

Even I dont know that, I was
not informed of other half. My job was to protect the Atlantians.

Which you failed at
accomplishing, I will repeat myself again. I am not a patient man; I
would like to know where the other half is.

Never again shall I allow Kurs
dark power to rise.

Spare me the heroics. Argost
avoided a few shards of crystal and laughed as one bounced off the
vial. Learn from your past mistakes, I wont make it so easy to
shatter this time.

The priestess growled and tried to
keep her attention on the man, but with the sounds of battle and
shouts of the Saturdays now becoming clearer that they were losing
this fight, she clenched her fists and sighed.

The half of the key lies in the
bulls pit, center and below. That is the only phrase we were
allowed to know, now call them off!

You are such a demanding girl,
fine I shall let the beasts go about their business. Which I do
believe they are VERY hungry, I hope you have a snack ready. The
pale man faded into the shadows and soon a roar of an airship was
heard.

Zak get back! his mother
shouted lowering the sword to blast one of the monsters that bore
down on the family.

Im starting to run out of ammo
here! Doyle shouted, narrowly avoided losing his head to a pair
of sharp claws.

Azurvi, youre the priestess,
you should know how to fix this.

Azurvi in truth did not know how to
stop the onslaught of monsters that seem to come from nowhere, she
bit her lip getting ready to run into the fight and do all she could
when the light reflected off one of the walls.

What is this?She mused
reaching out to it, the light glowed brighter. A shrine.to
Selciti, of course.

With a quick movement she dropped
the only thing of value she owned, a silver bracelet that belonged to
her mother. Pushing it before the mirror, trying to block the shouts
of the panicked family and focusing on the glow and the soft voice.

Great god of Atlantis, Selciti,
your servant Azurvi Selos, 4th house in the moon; calls
upon your help, please, let me help the family. They are preserving
the balance like you did so long ago. I beg of you, take my last
valuable, my last precious memory and save them.

My child, a heart of pure intent
I feel. I grant you free from the curse and mastery over your other
self. Use this wisely. The voice boomed through the temple

The room glowed brighter and
brighter, causing the war beasts to cower away from the Saturdays,
the people to close their eyes and wonder what else this ancient site
held in store. Life? Death? Salvation? What had happened to the
priestess? Had she reverted back to her monstrous self?

Zak yelled for his family and
Azurvi, the war beasts snarled wildly as the light faded and revealed
another beast. It was bigger , covered in snow white fur, the same
fangs and claws as the other ones, but this one seemed to target the
wild ones.

This might be an alpha female,
this could be bad. Drew said pushing her son behind herself and
trying to figure away to back out without alerting anything to their
movements.

It seems to be very territorial,
or its protecting something.

Yeah its dinner. Doyle
snorted checking his wrist blaster to stock how much he had left.
Ive got probably another 2 minutes worth of ammo, we could
probably make a break for the door.

What about Azurvi? We cant
leave her here! She could be hurt. Zak spoke up frustrated.

Hes got a point, we cant
leave her. And she may have more knowledge of Kur and his tomb than
we do. Doc said frowning.

How do we find her?

Im not sure-WATCH OUT! Doc
pushed his family out of the way as a monster was thrown against the
wall cracked the marble. A loud howl filled the room, they took
notice that the larger cryptid had won the fight.

We may want to regroup and come
back, its fended off its competition its not going to wait long
before it samples the winnings. Doyle said backing up with the
rest of them. Fiskerton squeaked as the cryptid put its face closer,
pulling Zak on his shoulders and getting ready to make a bolt for the
zeppelin.

The cryptid almost chuckled and sat
down before the family, tail wrapping around its feet.

Guys, I thinkthat is Azurvi.
Zak said leaning forward to touch the large nose before him.
Fiskerton mumbled something almost inaudible to the group. Its
fine Fisk, its Azurvi, Im sure of it. His hand finally made
contact with the damp nose and with that he felt the cryptid power
involuntarily activate and link with the mind of the white wolf
cryptid.

Im glad you arent afraid.
Azurvis voice rang through his mind.

How did this happen? What
happened to the other monster?

Gone, freed by the power of
Selciti. My mind is clear now and I have grave news, the pale man,
Argost will soon be heading to the island of Crete, to find the other
half of the key. One half was hidden here in the water and the other
half within the walls of the labyrinth.

Then we need to go and get there
before he does. If he gets both halves, hell be closer to
releasing Kur.

Something the world does not need
again.

I know, do you know where in the
labyrinth the other half is?

Only that it lies in the bulls
pit. That is the only thing we were allowed to know when they key was
broken.

The link broke and the wolf
disappeared in a flash of light and revealed Azurvi, her skin still
covered in characters, but they had changed from the druidic
character to the ornate flowing characters of the Atlantians. Her
face looked different, clearer, and less afraid of herself.

I apologize Saturdays, for the
scare. My intention was to protect you from Kurs evil in the
temple. It has been defiled which allowed the evil to gain power from
the temple.

Tell them, what you told me,
about Crete.

Argost has the water, I know not
how he obtained it, but unfortunately he does have half of the key.
The other half is in Crete, deep in the labyrinth in the bulls
pit. If he gets that key, hes too close for my own personal
comfort to unlocking Kurs tomb, releasing unspeakable evil upon
the lands and seas again.

That is disturbing, we need to
get ahead of him as soon as possible. We cant let Kurs tomb be
opened. Doc scratched his chin.

My request is, that you allow me
to help. I feel like I have failed in my duties here, and I need to
right them.

Doc and Drew looked at each other,
she did save their lives and Zaks life. Could they really have
the heart to leave her on the island, not knowing if the cryptids
that they fought off would come back for revenge and territory
fights?

Come on! We OWE HER. Zak
shouted, Fiskerton nodded and patted her shoulder.

Its true, if it werent for
her wed either be drowning or stuck in those tunnels.

See dad? Even Doyle thinks she
should come with us.

I cant leave her here either
Drew said softly, feeling a pull at her heart. She knew deep inside
the old temple she could feel the impression of a mother still in the
room, urging the family to save her daughter.

Well I guess its settled,
besides, you are a living artifact. You hold secrets of the past that
not even the most hopeful could hope for.

So she can come?Zaks eyes
lit up.

Yes honey, she can come.

I promise you, you will not
regret this decision. I will provide all the knowledge I have that I
can.

Then wed better get moving,
Argost could get ahead of us by now.

Drew and Doc turned and jogged for
the zeppelin, followed by Fiskerton with Zak and Doyle behind. Doyle
turned to see the priestess still standing in the temple, looking
longingly at the walls and remembering her people and her culture.

Hey, if you dont hurry up,
well leave you. Doyle shouted jokingly. Azurvi turned and gave
him a small smile and dashed toward the family.

No worries, we wouldnt leave
you.Zak yelled back at her.

The zeppelin was an amazing sight
for someone who hadnt seen technology like this before, her bare
feet felt the coldness of the metal ramp.

Amazing, you can actually fly in
this? Azurvis voice was filled with a sense of wonder as she
walked carefully around the room and was soon greeted by Komodo and
Zon.

This is the rest of my family,
the lizard is Komodo and the Ornithocheirous is Zon. Zak
introduced his familys odd collection of pets.

Komodo flicked his tongue at her and
merely found little interest as she had no treats or toys, Zon
however had her eye on the girl and finally waddled away to find the
bucket of fish that was usually kept on board.

Theyll get used to you, dont
worry.Zak offered as the girl continued to see what she had missed
out on after all these years.

This is far beyond what I could
have even imagined. She observed the flashing lights and soft
sounds the ship made as it began to ascend into the sky.

To think if my mother were here
to see this, flying in a vehicle.

Atlantians didnt have flying
cars? Doyle arched his eyebrows.

No, we couldnt fly, well glide
yes if you knew the right techniques, but flying no.

So Atlantis wasnt this super
futuristic nation?

No Im sorry to disappoint you.
Though we were more advanced than some of the other human nations. So
I can guess that is where the lore came from. Azurvi shrugged and
looked out the window and out at the clouds.

Hang on, were going to make a
straight trip to Crete and hopefully beat Argost there. Doc was
heard calling to those still standing, Zak dove into his chair.

Sorry, but theres only so many
seats. The 11 year old apologized.

I am not afraid, but I would
avoid going directly north east. I sense a storm in that region.

Thanks for the heads up. Drew
called Now hang on this may be a little rough.

Doyle stood next to her his hands on
the railing and looking out of the window as the clouds zoomed by and
soon thickened as they rose in altitude.

For someone who is just now
experiencing flight, you dont seem freaked out by this.

I may be from an ancient culture,
but I am not afraid of modernized things Azurvi frowned at the red
head.

Azu- can I just call you Vi? Its
easier to pronounce.

You may, my family called me
that.

But Vi, you act like you know
that this is already safe. You dont know, we could fall out of
the sky.

Doyle stop scaring her. Drew
shot her brother a look.

Priestesses are privileged to see
the future at some point. I have faith in this machine like I had
faith that I wouldnt be lost to a monsters mind so many ages
ago.

A soft smile crept across her face,
leaving Doyle feeling confused, he fell silent meandering off in his
defeat as Vi continued to look out the window. She was soon joined by
Zak as soon as they got to traveling altitude who now was asking a
million questions a minute.
