Hunter Potter and the gantlet of Fire
Hunter tossed and turned as he slept on a summer's night, he saw Vincemort come back to life, torturing a poor woman into telling him information, only to be killed when he said "I no longer find you of any use to me" his dreamed had started to become like visions, heating up his scar on his forehead, he saw a family, and the child there was Shane Questionable… the Young Vincemort, however he turned and killed his family the moment he felt his powers have grown to it's utmost greatness.
Hunter shot off the bed breathing heavily. "Oh damn" he sighed as he tried to fall back to sleep. He turned and looked at Helmsley, his trusty dragon. Who for some reason had grown to the size of a large dog, and was acting frisky. He smirked thinking about it.
"Damn, he's just like me" Hunter smirked. He got out of bed to think about what was going on. Hunter knew well that if his scar was hurting like someone bashing him in the head with a steel chair. Vincemort wasn't too far behind. For it always throbbed in pain when he was. His thinking woke up Helmsley from his sleep; his dragon watched him walk back and forth in the room. Hunter turned and smiled to it.
"I look crazy don't I?" he asked his dragons, Helmsley only put his head back down and went to sleep. "I could tell Uncle Hayman… but what the hell can he do about it? He wouldn't lift a finger to help me. Then there's Stephoine, but she would freak out and tell Darcodork about me…" Just as Hunter said the name aloud, he swears he heard lighting in a far distance and a gong had been sounded. Looking on the floor he began to wonder where the hell all this white mist came from! "Uh… Darcodorf?" he said aloud, and the sounds and mist vanished. "Damn, that guy has no sense of humor" Hunter thought about telling Chris, but Chris would suspect he was pulling a prank on him, or it wasn't as serious as Hunter suspected. But nonetheless, Hunter knew something HUGE was going to go down, and he was going to be going along for the ride. He went back to bed and tried to rest his eyes, school would be starting soon one again. Perhaps the answers will come before then. Just as he closed his eyes, Hunter came up with an idea.
"Shawn!" he whispered aloud to himself. He went to the table and started to write a quick letter to HBK, Shawn Michaels. Hunter told him of his dream and what it's been doing to him. He questioned Shawn on what he should do to take action against the nightmares. When he finished, Hunter turned to Helmsley.
"Hey… Scaly" Hunter called. Helmsley was fast asleep. "Come on Helmsley, I need you to take a letter to Shawn! Get your scaly ass up!" Hunter watched Helmsley open one eye at him; eventually Helmsley did get up and took the letter. The only problem was Helmsley was too large to fit through the window of his room. He had to go out the back door.
Knowing he was going to get in deep trouble for this, Hunter snuck Helmsley down the stairs at four in the morning. He was glad that Kurtley and his Uncle were loud sleepers. Their snoring muffled any noise they made. They went through the kitchen and Hunter looked down at Helmsley. "This is important ok? Make sure you get there safely, and come back in the morning," he ordered. Helmsley took off into the sky before the sun rose. Hunter snuck back up to bed, just before his Uncle Hayman had woken up for the day. Hunter managed to get a bit of sleep, knowing Shawn would get back to him. But he couldn't help but wonder what high jinx would be going on at Ringwarts this year. He only caught a few more hours of sleep when his uncle Hayman began beating the door.
"GET YOUR LAZY ASS OUT OF BED!" he yelled in his high-pitched voice.
"I WILL IF YOU LAY OFF THE HELIUM UNCLE HAYMAN!" Hunter shot back as he got out of bed. He yawned and went down the stairs to see Kurtley poking at his grapefruit.
"Why do I have to eat this? This sucks it's true!" Kurtley moaned and complained.
"We've been through this before, you don't fit in your underwear anymore" Hunter's aunt Molly replied.
Hunter started to snicker at the idea. "You outgrew your thongs! HAHA! Gold!" Hunter stated as he smacked the table in laughter.
"Watch it Hunter, we're all on this diet. So get the wiseass smirk off your face" Uncle Hayman shot back as he pulled up the paper to read. Hunter just mouthed the words back in a mocking manner. Kurtley looked around the room.
"Hey, where's that damn lizard you keep around?" he asked.
Hunter stared at Kurtley. "It's a dragon, and he's… busy" Hunter laid, just as something came crashing in the backyard in the tool shed.
"What the hell was that?" Hayman dropped his paper and ran out, only to scream moments later.
"NO! MY SHED! HUNTER!" he screamed. Hunter went to see what he was yelling about, he smirked to see wood all over the place, a gaping hole in the shed and his dragon Helmsley's eyes come from the darkness of the shed. The door was blown off from the landing. Neighbors looked over the fence to see what was going on. Hunter smiled to them and just shrugged.
"I told you uncle, you shouldn't have built it yourself but you did anyway, and it falls apart!" Hunter called aloud making sure all those who were spying on them had their curiosity filled. Hunter went into the shed and pulled out one of the old tarps, he covered Helmsley with it and took him inside. Kurtley smirking, knowing Hunter was going to get into BIG trouble for his dragon. Hunter got Helmsley upstairs and into his room, Helmsley had a letter in one of his claws. Hunter took it and started to read.
'Dear Hunter
How've you been man? I see Helmsley grew abit bigger since the last time I saw him. I should apologize for the dragon I sent Chris to replace Nibbles; no doubt you are going to have your hands full little man. Anyway, back to the subject at hand. I know Vincemort got you worried. He has me concerned to, I suggest you keep your eyes peel and ears open boy. I think he's coming back, and he isn't going to be a happy camper. Stay frosty Junior!
HBK Shawn Michaels'
Hunter sighed aloud to the letter. He wasn't crazy after all. Vincemort will be coming back and soon, but what was he refereeing too at the first part of the letter. He looked at Helmsley who seemed to be homesick or something. "HUNTER!" bellowed out Uncle Hayman, with a roll of the eyes, Hunter went down to see what his uncle wanted this time. He stood at the top of the stairs, looking down to see Uncle Hayman standing there with his foot tapping on the ground. "Hunter, we need to have a little talk about the dragon," he said. Hunter knew this was coming; he came down the stairs and looked his uncle in the eyes.
"It's not my fault Helmsley got bigger you know! He just grew over night, how was I supposed to know he was going to get bigger? Like Kurtley's ass" Hunter demanded.
Hayman wasn't too impressed. "You better do something about him… if he gets any bigger, I am going to sell him to the highest bidder at a freak auction!" he warned.
"Can you sell Hunter with the dragon?" Kurtley called from the kitchen.
"SHUT UP AND STICK A GRAPEFRUIT IN IT!" Hunter yelled back.
Hayman stared at Hunter. "Don't you dare talk to your cousin that way!"
Hunter was getting upset with his uncle, he was about to say even worst words when the doorbell ranged. Hayman answered it and was stunned to get a letter from Mrs. Jackie Jericsley. She had invited them to see the Fidget world finals. As well as take Hunter for the rest of the summer.
Hayman's eyes narrowed as he stares at Hunter. "You really want this don't you? But if I let you go, this would make you happy wouldn't it. Hmm what to do… what to do…" Hayman had a sick grin on his face, knowing he could easily toy with Hunter for this.
Hunter started to have an uninterested look on his face. "I'm sorry if you see it that way. You know, I think I will write HBK. Seeing if he wants to visit us for the rest of the summer" Hunter stated. Hayman's eyes widened.
"NO! No, no, no, no!" Hayman yelled. He gave in. For he knew Hunter would do it, Hunter smiled to his uncle patting him on the shoulder.
"So… it's cool I got to Chris' place for the rest of the summer break? If not I will get HBK here…"
"GO!" Hayman roared. Hunter smirked.
"I knew you would see it my way" Hunter went up the stair to get ready, the Jericsleys would be here in a few days.
