Richard Rawlings (The Invicible Hero) Chapter 68
Richard turned toward the desperate shout coming from deeper in the cave. Without thinking, he ran toward the sound, his steps echoing loudly in the quiet space. The air felt heavier as he moved.He stopped when he saw two beasts lying dead on the ground. He knelt beside them, confused. There were no injuries, no blood, and no signs of a fight."What is going on?" he muttered, his fists clenching in frustration."Master," a weak voice whispered from the shadows ahead.Richard turned sharply toward the sound. "Who’s there?" he asked, stepping carefully forward.A trembling beast appeared from behind a rock. Its face was filled with fear and shame. "I’m sorry we failed you, Master," it said. "We need to leave before it’s too late."Richard’s eyes narrowed. "You can leave," he said firmly. "Just tell me where to find whatever did this."The beast hesitated, then pointed deeper into the cave. Its legs shook as it slowly backed away, retreating toward the entrance.Richard moved deeper in

Richard froze, the beast’s words hitting him like a blow. His mind raced, replaying her cryptic words, her eerie confidence, and the fear she had instilled in these creatures."A Ghost Rider?" he repeated, his voice low but edged with disbelief."Yes, Master," the beast affirmed, its tone grave. "Her fire burns different... darker.""I thought Ghost Riders were extinct?" Richard asked, his face clouded with confusion."We believed so too, Master," the beast replied gravely, "until you appeared, and now her."Richard furrowed his brows. "What are you saying?"The beast lowered its voice, as if sharing a forbidden truth. "According to the legend, Master, a Rider’s eyes turn red only after they’ve bonded with a dragon. It’s a sign of their connection and power."Richard’s expression hardened. "Bonded with a dragon? You mean she’s already—""Most likely, Master," the beast replied. "That’s why we fear her. A Rider with a dragon is nearly unstoppable. They say their fire can melt mountains

"So, the plan is simple," Richard began, his tone firm. "We get close, assess if they’re hostile or not. If they are, I’ll disarm them, and you take them out. Stay alert and prepared."The beasts nodded in unison, their eyes gleaming with anticipation.They advanced cautiously until they reached the alien checkpoint.Richard crouched low, observing the scene. Unlike the beast-like aliens that had attacked Earth, these creatures were distinctly different—sleek metallic bodies with glowing cores in their chests. They looked more like robots, their movements precise and calculated."These aren’t the same ones from Earth," Richard muttered to himself. "More advanced, and probably harder to deal with."The checkpoint was heavily fortified, with towering gates and energy shields shimmering faintly in the air. The aliens stood in organized formations, their heads swiveling methodically, scanning the area.Richard turned to the beasts, whispering, "We approach slowly. Don’t make a move until

The aliens raised their machine guns, their metallic forms gleaming under the pale light as they closed in on Richard. He stood motionless, hands raised in surrender, a calm expression masking the turmoil within. He could have stopped time, could have escaped and followed the beasts to safety. But something rooted him in place—the thought of seeing a dragon.As the aliens drew closer, weapons trained on him, Richard’s eyes flickered with determination. Time slowed, then halted entirely. The crackling hum of the aliens' guns went silent. He moved swiftly, weaving between the frozen figures, each step calculated and deliberate.In a blur, Richard dashed toward the mountainous cave, leaving the motionless aliens behind, their guns still raised, unaware they had been outmaneuvered. His heart pounded, not from fear, but from anticipation. He was heading straight into the dragon’s den.The smell of sulfur was overwhelming as Richard stepped deeper into the cave, making him pause. The thick,

The dragon stood towering over them, its massive wings unfurling with a powerful gust that sent dust and ashes swirling around Richard and the ghost rider. Its glowing blue eyes locked onto Richard, and for a moment, he was certain this was the end. The dragon's mouth opened wide, its jagged teeth glistening, and Richard braced himself for the inevitable burst of flames.But instead of fire, a deafening roar erupted, shaking the very walls of the cave. The sound echoed like thunder, reverberating through Richard's chest, leaving him momentarily stunned. He felt the raw power of the beast's fury.As the echoes faded, the dragon lowered its head slightly, exhaling a deep rumble, and then, to Richard’s surprise, it turned away. The massive creature walked slowly toward the back of the cave, each step shaking the ground, before settling down into its hide, curling its wings around itself like a protective shield.Richard let out a breath he hadn’t realized he was holding, his heart still

Doris flipped between the aliens and the chained baby dragon, her movements fluid and precise. Richard stayed back, watching with cautious eyes."Eliminate the foreign threat," one of the aliens commanded in a cold, mechanical tone.There were twenty of them in total, all heavily armed. The baby dragon struggled weakly against its chains, pushed forward by a machine.The aliens opened fire, but Doris moved with lightning speed, dodging every shot. She was a blur, too fast for their weapons to track.Richard’s eyes widened as he took in the scene. "She’s a speedster," he muttered to himself. "That’s her superpower."Doris twisted in midair, landing gracefully behind an alien and knocking it into the others with a single, powerful kick. She glanced back at Richard, a smirk playing on her lips. "Still just watching? Thought you might be useful."Richard clenched his jaw, frustration flickering in his eyes. "I thought you wanted me to sit this one out."Doris laughed softly. "Changed my m

As they continued deeper into the cave, the darkness became suffocating, consuming every hint of light until there was nothing but the flickering glow of Richard’s lightning illuminating their path."So," Doris broke the silence, her voice echoing softly against the cavern walls, "apart from controlling lightning, what other powers do you have?"Richard glanced at her, the soft crackle of electricity sparking from his fingertips. "I can stop time," he answered simply.Doris raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued. "Stopping time is cool."He smirked. "It has its perks. But what about you? Speed can’t be your only ability."A mischievous grin spread across Doris’s face. "I can stop people’s hearts. Kill them without laying a single finger on them."Richard stopped in his tracks for a second, impressed and unnerved. "That’s… intense," he admitted. "I guess that’s how you handled those aliens earlier."Doris nodded, her smile lingering. "It gets the job done.""And Medusa?" Richard asked, g

“Why do I feel like this is a terrible idea, coming here?” Richard muttered, his voice barely audible over the oppressive silence. He glanced around, weighing his options, thoughts of retreat flickering in his mind.But before he could take another step, a voice echoed through the cavern—deep, guttural, and inhuman.“I can smell your blood... Baldur.”A chilling fear raced down Richard’s spine as the booming voice reverberated through the cave. His breath hitched, and his heart pounded in his chest.“It’s been so long since a Ghost Rider dared to seek me out,” the voice continued, dripping with malevolent amusement. “I almost forgot how delicious they taste.”The ground beneath Richard's feet trembled as the heavy, deliberate footsteps of the dragon echoed through the cavern, each one shaking the cave like distant thunder. The heat intensified, and the air thickened with the scent of sulfur.Richard swallowed hard, the realization sinking in: he was face-to-face with the black queen.

Sophia shivered. “Is it just me, or is the water colder?”Richard glanced around, his senses on high alert. “Keep moving. Stay calm.”Addams gave a nervous chuckle, trying to mask his growing fear. “Sure, because calm is exactly what I feel right now.”The serpent’s head rose just below the surface, close enough that its outline could be seen if anyone dared to look down. But it remained hidden, trailing them silently.Medusa suddenly stopped, her body tense. “Did you hear that?”Richard paused. “Hear what?”Medusa shook her head. “Maybe nothing…but it felt like something moved beneath us.”Addams’ face paled. “You mean, like a fish? A really big, man-eating fish?”Sophia tried to stay composed. “Let’s not jump to conclusions.”The giant monkey suddenly halted, sniffing the air again. Its low growl rumbled through the water. “Something is here,” it muttered, loud enough for only Richard and Medusa to understand.Richard’s heart raced, but he forced a calm expression. “Keep going,” he

As they began their trek through the thick underbrush, Richard slowed his pace to walk beside Medusa. “There’s something waiting for you when we leave this forest.”Medusa raised an eyebrow. “A surprise? You’re not exactly the surprising type.”Richard’s lips twitched into a rare smile. “It’s not what you think. But you’ll see.”Medusa studied him for a moment. “Do you know about the dragons?”His expression darkened. “Dragons? No. Why do you ask?”“Just a hunch,” Medusa replied, her voice laced with suspicion.Behind them, Addams sidled up to Sophia, his face unusually serious. “I had a dream last night,” he muttered.Sophia glanced at him. “A dream?”“More like a nightmare. We all died in this forest. Every single one of us.”Sophia frowned, brushing off the chill that ran down her spine. “You’re always so negative. It was just a dream.”Addams gave her a look. “Yeah? Let’s hope you’re right.”Suddenly, the giant monkey halted, its massive body going rigid. It sniffed the air, eye

"Do you think Richard will be okay?" Sophia asked, glancing at Medusa."I'm optimistic he will," Medusa replied calmly."Come off it, ladies. Richard's not coming back, and we're screwed in this cursed forest," Addams cut in.Sophia shot Addams a glare. "You're always so negative, aren't you? Richard will come back," she said firmly, though her voice trembled slightly.Medusa remained calm, folding her arms. "Addams, your pessimism is exhausting. Richard has faced worse than this."Addams scoffed, kicking a loose branch. "You know I'm right."Sophia clenched her fists. "If you’ve given up, feel free to leave. But stop dragging the rest of us down."Medusa smirked. "He won’t leave. He’s too scared to wander off on his own.""I would, if that giant gorilla decides to come with me," Addams countered with a smirk.Sophia rolled her eyes. "Ignore him. Medusa, how do we get out of this forest?"Medusa leaned against a tree, her expression calm but weary. "We've been trying for days, and it'

Planet GethenOn Planet Gethen, the beasts arrived at the throne room, seeking an audience with their King. The King of Gethen, seated on his iron throne, watched them carefully. Beside him stood the Berserker beast, a fierce warrior dressed in heavy armor.One of the beasts stepped forward, bowing its head. "We come on behalf of the Ghost Rider. He seeks an alliance."The King's eyes narrowed, "Why would a Ghost Rider seek my aid?""The aliens have invaded Earth," the beast replied. "He believes only an alliance with the Berserkers can stop them."The colonel crossed his arms, "Why should Gethen concern itself with Earth's war?"The beast raised its head. "If the aliens conquer Earth, they will not stop there. Gethen could be next. The Ghost Rider offers a pact: fight together, or risk standing alone."The King leaned back, a smirk curling his lips. "And what does Earth have to offer us? Nothing but weakness. Tell him his offer is rejected."The colonel add

"Very well, Ghost Rider. I have three questions for you." The dragon growled."Answer them correctly, and I'll bond with you. Answer wrong, and you'll be reduced to ash." The dragon halted, its golden eyes fixed on Richard.Richard took a deep breath and steadied himself, meeting the dragon's gaze. "Go on," he said.The dragon’s voice was low and ominous. "I am the whisper in the wind, the shadow on the wall, the echo of a distant call, yet I am not sound at all. What am I?"Richard furrowed his brow, thinking carefully about the riddle. The dragon's golden eyes never left him, and the air around them felt heavy with the pressure of the moment.His mind raced, but he forced himself to focus. He thought for a moment before speaking, his voice steady. "Silence," he said. The dragon's fiery eyes glinted, a hint of approval in its gaze. "Correct," it rumbled, its massive form shifting slightly. "One down. Two to go."Richard let out a breath of relief but stayed focused, knowing he still
