"Finally home..."Rohan walked into a beautiful only for him to be sent crashing down by the force of three children tackling him."Big bro Rahan!""You're back you're back you're back!""We missed you!""Tell us some stories of your adventures."This was the orphanage that Rohan and Rada Khan grew up in as kids alongside Rhea and the Enders clan.They could hear the chuckles of Rohan which seemingly turned into laughter as they got up and allowed him to sit down.Rohan is someone who rarely smiles let alone laugh.But he always finds himself feeling carefree and joyful whenever he's around the little kids.He hugged them all tightly and made their way to the playground.As he watches how some of the kids were playing and running around under the crescent moon, he smiled. A smile devoid of pain, a smile that showcased the love he has for all the children of the orphanage."I'm back, everyone." He doesn't smile much, but the smile on his face right now was pure and blissful in every wa
"Lady Serena!"Conroy couldn't believe what he's just heard. The woman whom he's sworn to serve, the woman that saved him from a life of treachery was slaughtered.At first, he wanted to deny the revelation made by the guards and rush over to Regrah this instant.But seeing the dead bodies of Cain, Vidal and Ruth helped him come to terms with reality.He plops to the ground and slams his hands hard on the floor."She's gone, she's really gone... Rada Khan has won..."He continuously slams his hands and tears gushed down from his eyes, his hands bruised and bloodied but all he could really think about was Serena...Regrah District, twelve years ago...The beautiful and wealthy city filled with life and joy was once a disheveled and eerie place for criminals of different types and was then deemed a lawless land.The luster of the full moon shone upon a large man riding a carriage filled with children.These children came from a different land with similar conditions to this one and were
The radiant moon shines through the lawless town of Regrah as the wealthy and nobles have gathered together to welcome their new District Commander.They hoped that with the arrival of this person, the town will be saved.It was the size of a city, but due to the subtraction of the lawless areas within the district, the size of the residential area of the fewer population that were law-abiding and wealthy was that of a town.It was not until five years after the current situation that the town steadily grew to the size of a full city or district.The carriage carrying the District commander stopped at the city square, where the banquet is being held.One of the knights that accompanied the carriage opened the door for the new District commander.The people cheered until a woman got out of the carriage."Huh?""A girl? Is this some kind of joke?"The once joyful cheers of the citizens were replaced with tantrums and bickering upon the arrival of a girl not more than sixteen years of ag
Vorus held the body of his fallen subordinates as the memories of their time together flashed through his aching heart.Eight years ago... the trio were merely kids of servants that served at the commander's castle.They were the only children in the castle as they were allowed to live there with their parents due to a rule that permits the maids and servants of the castle to live within the servant section with their families for as long as they work there.The district commander then was a ruthless and wicked tyrant who bullies the servants and everyone else in the district. He collected taxes even though all district commanders receive a hefty grant from the king every month.One day..."Who dares steal from Fuu the great!?"The castle was caught in an uproar as someone had stolen a ring under the possession of the commander.He ordered for all the servants to be brought to him."One of you peasants has taken something valuable from me. I'm sure the rest of you are all innocent so
"My people..."The location was the middle of Kondo, right outside the prison.After the attack on the Kondo prison, the crew went on to bury their fallen comrades.Now, the citizens of Kondo gathered around Vorus as he addresses them."First, I want to begin by apologizing for not being here when you all needed me."Vorus went silent for a bit before he continued, he paused to look at the faces of the people around him.Some of them were skinnier than when he left, most had bandages covering their bodies, injuries they received from the Rada Khan's invasion.One thing that was the same with everyone around him was the look of total depression across their faces.It was understandable too."We have all lost people dear to us, people that were part of our daily lives... I promise all of you, no I swear on my name!"He slams his fist hard on his chest."Vorus V. Vladimir swears to bring you Rada Khan's head!"He pumps his fist high in the sky as the crowd cheer. It was more like a battl
Inside an unknown dungeon, Rada Khan was making his way to a specific cell.He was clad in royal attires and wore the crown that used to sit atop the head of the previous king."A while back, we were in a similar situation, brother." He smirked as he holds the bars of the cell containing a bruised and chained Rohan.Rohan was chained in a similar way that Rada Khan was chained when he was taken prisoner by Rhea and the Enders.Rohan slowly raises his head to look at his brother."Brother... what has gotten over you? The once noble man who raised me as a child, I refuse to believe you're the same."Rada Khan only laughed at Rohan's remarks as he bends to the level of his captive brother to stare directly into his eyes."It wasn't I who change, but you brother. I used to think that whatever the case, you will always stand beside me, if you did, you would be ruling with me today but instead, you chose a bunch of miscreants that have lost their way to the evil of the accursed relics.""Th
The location was the district commander's Castle in Regrah. Rada Khan was sitting on a throne with his cheek rested on his palm."Oh Radaaaa, I'm back." Jester entered the room skipping around as he paused on his tracks when he was but a few steps away from Rada Khan."Jester, did you deliver the letter?"The masked clown laughed and gives him a thumbs up.Rada Khan smirked as he pulls out a map and hands it to the masked man."As promised, the map of Gaia's heart. This was a treasured heirloom passed down through the generations of the royal family that ruled Cronoa."Jester snatched the map and brings it up to his cheek to caress it like a lost pet."We both are getting what we desire, hahaha. You get the head of Stark's kid and I will get a very unique treasure after this."He begins to dance and spin around the room to Rada Khan's annoyance.'Once you aid me in apprehending my remaining enemies, I shall take your head as well. you accursed relic user. you are all the same to me. N
"What do you mean he's our vice-captain?"The first to speak up after the revelation was Reginald, it was noticeable in the tone he exerted that he wasn't happy.'I thought I was the vice.'"Hihi! Well, he's stronger than I am, Regi and if it wasn't for him, we all won't be here right now." Ace replied with a grin as he slaps the back of his "best friend"."N-nice to meet you, Sir Kaz, I'm Conroy." Conroy gave the man a handshake which he readily accepts.Vorus and Maggie followed suit to welcome their new companion."Vorus. Spar with me soon, I'll love to face a man that the captain speaks of in high regards.""I'm Maggie, joined recently too.""Once again it's nice to meet you guys.""By the way, What are you doing all the way here Kaz?""It's a long story.""Let me guess," Reginald said. "It has something to do with Seven certain special individuals?"Kaz raised his eyebrow and looked at the thief."Sorry, and you are?" The remark made Reginald pop a vein."I'm Reginald Star!""Oka
"So, this is it." Ace faced his teammates. He recalled all the difficulties and trials they faced together. "We've been through alot, huh?" Reginald smirked. The others wore saddened expressions. "This goodbye is not forever, sir Ace." Conroy says struggling to put his emotions in check. "Yes!" Vorus exclaims as he throws his arms in the air. "When You return, I shall challenge you, Captain!" "I'll be sure to share my findings with you." Maggie added. "Yeah bro, we'll rock it out when you get back." Ernie added. "I'll keep these rascals in check for you." Said Kaz. "Guys..." Ace's eyes sparkled. He bows silently and turns to Ryker who was waiting for him with the Cruiser. "I'll miss you..."
"Finally!" Ryker exclaimed as he spreads his arms apart. "I can breathe fresh air again!"He, Jackal and Zera have made their way back to the Black Stallion."Well?" Jackal turned to the vampire. "What do you think of Stally?" He asked with a grin as he puffs out his chest.Zera scans the cruiser momentarily before setting her gaze back to its captain. "She's as vibrant as ever." She remarked with a smile.Ryker wore a stoic expression as he glances at the two. 'Why are they talking as if the cruiser is a living thing?'Just then, Ming approached them."Ming..." Zera said in a cold tone.Ryker felt a chill run down his spine. She gave off the same vibe as earlier when they met. The look was aimed at the android yet he felt restless."Zera..." Ming responded in a similar manner."I see Jackie still hasn't taken you for recycling.""I see you're still trying to pass off as a young and beautiful woman despite being an old hag."A vein popped on the vampire's head. Zera gritted her teeth
"You didn't have to go that far." Tommaso had returned to his room where he was met with the sight of Keith. "I thought you weren't coming till after your match?" "Don't change the subject!" Keith snapped at Tommaso. "Watch how you address me. I'm the captain here." "Pfft. Have you forgotten that I'm merely a part of your clan for conditional reasons? We're here to win the access codes." "Yeah yeah but that doesn't change the fact that I'm thr boss around here." Tommaso brushes off Keith's shoulder and made his way to the bed. He sat down and clutches his hands. His body was shaking excessively as he lowers his head. "That girl was stupid enough to awaken my taste for blood.""You almost killed her. As much as I love a good showing of brutality, that would have disqualified you." "You think your brother would just sit by and let me kill his clan mate? I thought you knew him better than that given that you two are twins." Keith clicked his tongue. "If I was you, I'd be worr
Ace used his strongest attack to attack Jester as Reginald and the Saints watched the mad clown get encased in the explosion of the massive slash attack."Is that it?" Asked Reginald. "I'm afraid not, lad." The dust clears and Jester remains standing although he had suffered considerable damage from the attack. He held his shoulder as his clones gathered around him. "These are your super clones?""The boy who barely killed one of my fingers has developed this much?" Jester didn't bat an eye away from Ace. He can share the same memories as his clones, so he recalls all the events that transpired with his clone that fought beside Rada Khan. "Harold," Ace looked at the Dark Saint. "Can I count on you and Jacob to take care of these clones? I want Jester myself." The two Saints nod their heads as the four clones divided themselves and approached them. "Kisha!" Harold called out to the Sloth Saint. "Elders Ram and Bari are in the rehabilitation room, you have to heal Bari."Kisha
"Black Guillotine!" Ace used his strongest attack to attack Jester as Reginald and the Saints watched the mad clown get encased in the explosion of the massive slash attack."Is that it?"

The crowd was vibrant as always.The announcer made his introduction speech giving the names of the participants that have made it thus far. "Ladies and gentlemen, this tournament keeps hotter by the day! For our first match, a battle you all have waited eagerly for... Two captains pitched against one another in a fight that will be nothing short of a final before the final... Ace Shadows vs Tommaso!"The crowd cheered and booed for Ace and Tommaso respectively. The Aegis clan had all gathered at the bleachers to watch the match. They glared at the captain of the Valhalla clan as he descended to the bleachers. Tommaso had a smug look on his face as he looked at Ace who had waited for him to descend. "You finally get me, one on one. Are you excited?" Ace darts Tommaso with a venomous look.His hands were shaking excessively. It wasn't out of fear, but out of rage. He recalled the way the man in front of him bru
Ryker Steele, a C-Grade interstellar bounty hunter was left for dead by the very people he worked for. Drifting in the endless void of space, he was beamed by an unknown cruiser and found himself in the care of a peculiar man. "Let's conquer the cosmos together and along the way, you'll have your revenge on the association." He receives a power unlike any other from a mysterious being. Will he get his revenge? Or will he find a new purpose in his life It was now day 4 of the Vagrant games, the day of the quarter-finals. The crowd was vibrant as always.
