stop people being afraid of you to see you as a powerful ally and lay off restricting you on when you can use your earthquake power including how high you can go with it.”
Jinks groaned and spoke “Fine what do you have in mind?”
He stared at Barry who stopped flaring golden eyes and the Builder spoke “You will mentally at a time specific by me will your power to an underwater location including making it go off in a code repeatedly over and over till I tell you to stop.”
He stiffened hearing Barry’s words to blurt “Hettinger’s underwater?”
Barry spoke “Underwater sealed up alive in some coffin like box that is currently happening at the moment. It should hit the ocean floor soon. I know there’s a Shadonian underwater vessel captained by a Human fluent in codes nearby in the vicinity. He must be picked up by that vessel which will go over him not noticing his coffin unless you give off your power originating from his location which should notice him enough to pick him up.”
Jinks groaned loudly to feel Willow adjust her position on him till he felt the familiar claw digging feeling again. He looked down to rub her back and heard the cat give off a meow sounding like she didn’t want to be petted.
He sighed as Barry spoke “Come with me, Jinks”
Jinks looked at Barry who got up from the chair and stuffed the book back in between the cushion and chair which he got up after feeling Willow jump off his lap. He sighed again as Barry without a word walked out of the room yanking open the doors showing Tatiana standing in the hallway looking with some familiar look that reminded him of the look Gustav would give him. Jinks wordlessly followed Barry with Tatiana taking the rear to the dining room where he sat down at the head of the table with Barry on his left side and Tatiana next to the Builder. Jinks placed his elbows on the table and clasped his hands putting his chin on them as he stared at Barry who shut his eyes with some concentrating look on the Builder’s face.
Jinks watched Barry’s face still showing concentration before the Builder opened his eyes and spoke “Do it Jinks, now’s the time.”
He shut his eyes putting his forehead on his hands as he got an image in his mind of a metal box appearing to be a coffin while hearing pounding noises coming from it. He mentally willed the Master through and mentally ordered his earthquake power to shake from the area flashing in his mind showing the coffin sitting on the ocean floor. He felt the vibration around him shaking as he heard Barry’s voice speaking in foreign language felt himself compelled to do the earthquakes on and off in apparent code repeating over and over as Barry stopped talking. He continued to do it till the image in his mind showed light shining over the coffin followed by a round metal like tire with some tube attached hit the top of the coffin and lifted it up.
He heard Barry’s voice speaking “You can stop now.”
He obeyed to halt the earthquakes and willed the Master away from him while lifting up his head and lowering his hands till they rested on the table. He sighed as he heard the kitchen doors bang open as Jacqueline walked into his line of sight carrying a cup full of pink liquid which she set down in front of him.
Jinks heard from Barry “Drink it all up Jinks.”
He obeyed bringing the cup to his lips and found it strawberry milkshake and himself gulping it down fast as if he was really thirsty despite not feeling it in his mouth. He drank it all up brought the cup down onto the table and sat back leaning against the chair with his hands in his lap. He watched Jacqueline pick up the cup and carry it into the kitchen as Victoria walked out with some bewildered expression on her face that turned to questioning aimed at him.
Barry spoke “Out with it Victoria.”
He stared at his daughter who spoke sounding confused “How come he has that power and I don’t? What’s up with that?”
He sighed as Barry spoke “Hmm, perhaps it was best for one person to be burdened with the power and that’s your father. I believe that power such as that in the wrong hands can cause terrible devastation which is something your father is willing to be burdened by having it.”
He groaned a soft sound while turning his attention towards Barry who was looking at him.
Barry spoke “Don’t worry Jinks your burden isn’t for you alone. There are others willing to help you from getting your power used for the wrong reasons. Trust those people to assist.”
Jinks sighed as Barry tapped his chest on the left side with a hand while narrowing his eyes which he figured the Builder was referring to the sensor device implanted inside him. He nodded his head in a short bob towards Barry and turned his attention towards Victoria who was frowning staring at the Builder. He felt sleepiness hit him hard bowed his head and shut his eyes passing out unconscious.
Jinks dreamed of he wearing his clothing he met Lance in while standing in front of a tree in ankle deep water. He frowned as Anubis appeared in front of him by a flash of light looking angry. He blocked Anubis’s fists with his hands.
Jinks spoke as Anubis kept trying to hit him “Anubis, what’s going on? Tell me please it’s Horus.”
Jinks frowned as Anubis stopped the punching to give off a growl and then the gonoid head warrior spoke sounding annoyed “Come with me.”
Jinks frowned as he wordlessly followed Anubis walking through the water which the gonoid head warrior stopped and pointed a clawed finger at a large mound sticking in the middle of the water and then pointed to his eye while gesturing towards it. He eyed the mound to figure it was a large egg which cracked open as a figure he saw was Anubis came out with confusion running through the gonoid head warrior who looked around appearing to not see him and his companion next to him.
He frowned forming it on his lips as Anubis spoke sounding dejected “I came out with no memory of who I was except the name of Anubis running through my mind which I took as my name and I wound up traveling through this swampy land struggling to find something I was guided by instinct to find but not recognize.”
The scene changed to show Anubis walking with confusion still in his face on a dessert as Jinks watched as the gonoid head warrior stopped staring at the ground and began to kneel digging at it. He watched as Anubis pulled out a female form.
He heard Anubis standing next to him speak “I traveled through lands with that instinct feeling in me not recognizing what it was till I found her Tala is her name I would later learn. I realized that the instinct feeling was me seeking people from the way I felt when I found her.”
Jinks exhaled a breath as the scene changed to show Anubis carrying the female into a room where there were other tan skinned Shadonians present in the room and lowered her onto the floor.
He heard Anubis speaking from besides him “I took her to the nearest city seeking help for her but was rejected by people till I entered a temple where the priests informed me that she had already passed away. One of them there admitted that she was his mate who died giving birth to his twin sons and insisted to the others to give me sanctuary which they did.”
He watched as the scene changed to show Anubis in the city walking discreetly behind a female figure carrying a basket while looking threatening to people getting near her.
He heard Anubis speaking “I guarded the servant girl that carried Horus in a basket to the Chasm of Storms where she threw herself in with the baby.”
He continued to watch as the scene changed to show a crack in the ground looking on the large size in one length and saw the servant girl pause from walking to look across the crack to see two figures standing appearing to be talking. He recognized them as Osiris and Set. He frowned as Anubis following the servant girl paused from behind her attention on the pair. He watched as Osiris walked away followed by Set pulling out a knife and stabbing his brother in the back followed by Osiris hitting the ground going still. He felt distaste running through him as shadowy figures appeared and hauled Osiris to the crack in the ground and tossed him in which was followed by the servant girl jumping in and then followed by Anubis jumping behind
her.
He heard Anubis speak “I followed her in the Chasm of Storms assuring of her safety to Edenia which is where the Chasm is said to lead. I went in and fell through a travel gate ending up in the hands of the High Council.”
The scene changed to show the High Council’s throne room where his eye focused on a Human like figure with Shadonian eyes appearing to see him that narrowed his eyes before turning sideways to move the head towards the dais where the High Council sat. He heard Anubis again speak “The Human with the Shadonian eyes is part of a race called Seer that is said to prophecy the future and it was he who prophesied that the High Council will die by the hands of a Human hidden by Hades and King Winter. The High Council in their fear of their own mortality ordered the attack on the Humans’ home world Earth and told the other races that the lie of Humans being hunters who’ll kill them for sport that got the others afraid of the Human race enough to kill them if they met one.”
He felt annoyance hit him as the scene changed to back to the swamp land which he turned to face Anubis which the gonoid head warrior spoke “The High Council’s actions towards the Human race is something I disagree with very strongly hence my divided loyalties to them and their enemies the Humans themselves.”
He nodded his head as Anubis reached
