"Every Hero Needs A Sidekick." --
Chap. 01. --
"Tell Me Why."

|||

Isn't it funny how life just twist & turns. Take me for example, I used to be just another dog, (I used to think I was a dog at the time), just trying to stay alive. But that was until I met my master.

Oh my! Have I buried my manners where I buried the last newspaper that Mr. Grandpa has read. My name is Feldspar, or it used to be; but for most of my life, I've been called Moonstone, that is, until I started living with my master; but my name is currectly Tobias Lucky Tennyson, Toby for short.

I can still remember the day I met him like it was yesterday.

I was digging though the trash cans like crazy trying to find my dinner. When I suddenly heard the loudest growl I had ever heard.

Then out of the alley poped the 3 heads of a giant red-eyed, black-fured, might-as-well-have-been-a-demon, dog. I ran as fast as I could, if only it were good enough.

|||

Being as big as it was, it could easily catch up to me.

"Leave me alone, you big bully." I barked in my commonly used dog tongue.

We both ran & ran until we both wandered into one of those places made by the humans called a building, one that hasn't been used in a long time. I backed up into a corner, hoping to see some kind of escape route, but it was no use, I was trapped.

"I thought I told you to leave me be! Do you hear me? Go away!"

I was mad & scared beyond words, I wasn't too scared, I was much more mad. Then all of a sudden, a weird red flash of light (I'm not color blind, & I never was; plus I know every black & white equal for every humanly named color out there) came from my forehead, I felt as if electricity was racing thoughout my bloodstream.

Then it happened; the demon dog's body glowed a bright red & was floating helplessly in the air,& then it magicly flung itself into the back of a wall enough to send a part of the warehouse called the celling upon me. Then the flash of light stopped glowing.

|||

Trapped under the man-made rocks, I was helpless. The demon dog was getting up, ready to go another 'round.' This time, my fear overruled my anger; along with it came a new flash, this time it was aquamarine in color, & along with that came the feeling of ice rushing through my bloodstream.

Then he came, in the fiery form I'd come to know as Heatblast, & he kicked the demon dog's butt (I've been with the Tennysons far too long). When the 'flash' stopped glowing, he looked around all confused as if he couldn't remember what just happened.

"Huh? Where am I? How'd I get here?" he said before he turned around & saw me. "Hey there, little guy! What are you doing under there? What's the matter? Are ya stuck?" he said to me softly. No one had ever spoken to me before, not in that matter, save for my mama. Too bad, unknown to him, the demon dog was getting back up.

|||

I had to warm him. "Look out! Behind you! The demon dog's behind you!" I tried to say to him, but it was no use, he couldn't understand a single word that I was trying to say to him. "Do you hear me!?"

"What is it, boy? Are you trying to tell me something?" I had to do something! If I didn't, he would end up hurt, or even worse! So I try to tell off that giant brute with the three heads.

"Leave him alone! You big bully!" I told the big 3-headed excuse for a dog. "Take me instead, just don't hurt him -- he's nice!"

"I don't think so!" he replied to me so loudly, the flame-guy couldn't help but turn around to see him.

"What the--"

"Hello there! May I call you linner? I sorta skipped lunch, & I'm hungry!"

"Oh no, you don't!" the flame-guy said just as he charged up a giant ball made up of fire & lava in his hands. He threw it at the demon dog, sending him sky-rocketing out of the building through the celling. That's what I saw, that is, before I passed out.

|||

I remember one more thing before I passed out. I remember the flame-guy rushing over to my side. I remember him bending down & talking softly to me again. I remember him looking around for something, & then bringing whatever it is he found to me. I remember him digging me with ease, & then hearing this weird beeping sound, & then he deappeared in a red flash of light.

In his place, was a young human boy. He had light-brown hair, acid-green eyes, & light-tan skin. The fake-furs known as clothes that he had on were: a black-&-white thing called a shirt on his chest, a murky-dark-green thing that was known as a pair of pants on his legs, & finially, on his feet were little black-&-white things that I knew were shoes.

There was something else! Something on the spot between his left fore-paw & his left fore-leg; something that created so many smells on it, that just one whiff of that thing was enough to zap the last of my strength out of me.

|||

I also remember the boy take whatever it was that the flame-guy had found, then started to wrap the thing around me, talking just as softly as the flame-guy had, & then he picked me up, talking even more softly. Then it hit me! That boy & the flame-guy were the same person! But how! Then I passed out!

I had so many questions to ask, it was not fair! Why was he talking so softly to me? Why was he being so kind? Why did he care? What did it matter to him? Why was he protecting me? Why did he help me? How was it that he could turn into that flame-guy? How did I do that thing I did with that demon dog? Why is it that I'm still alive? Why? Tell me why?!
