"Commander, We have a problem! The Beast is on a rampage within the cell! I don't think we can contain it here for much longer!"

"Calm yourself. What do you mean, we can't hold it. How much trouble can a small dog cause against fortified walls?"

"That's the problem. I don't think this is the right dog sir. This seems to be some kind of shape shifter! The previous beast we captured looked similar to this one but it was much weaker. along with it being weaker, it also attempted to manipulate our minds. This beast hasn't attempted to use his mind control once. It has only Rammed itself against the walls ever since it awoke. If we don't do anything soon, it will break free."

"I'll handle the beast. Just make sure that HQ gets this information. If we truly are holding a different beast, then we need to make sure to catch the other one as well."

Site-Bomb leaves the officer by himself as he draws his pistol and head towards the containment room.

He had been traveling from place to place with danger lurking at every turn. During his time at the Order, there were never this many abnormalities out in the world so closely knitted together."What are those Order bastards doing!" Rio shouted as he tried and tried to escape the boundaries of the town.Rio's rage began to get the better of him and he could feel his heart beating rapidly.Returning to the ground Rio formed Panoply into a cannon, firing haphazardly at his surroundings.The cannon blasts were powerful, and were able to destroy the houses with ease.The blast caused the ground to shake as he began to run around aimlessly trying to find a way out.

    "What the fuck?" Rio yelled out as he struggled to find a non squishy place to land.He was unable to return above ground as the hole that had brought him here had long been filled by flesh. He was not stuck in what appeared to be some form of a tunnel system with pathways and openings strung about in different directions. This was the first time he'd been able to really take in his surroundings and he wasn't exactly enjoying himself.As Rio made his landing begrudgingly a new message flashed in his mind."New mission from Alberoth: Put the false god in its place."[Reward varied dependent on your performance]As Rio read the mission, he could feel Alberoths smugness radiating from the words."Look at this guy. He's like a pot calling the kettle black."Rio lets out a chuckle as a sharp pain radiates in his head."Ouch. If you can't take the heat, just get out of the kitchen!" Rio complains to Alberoth as his pain increases before fading altogether.With the pain gone, all that remain

Cutting down the few that had reached him while maintaining his speed.His heart was racing as he continued his flight as the number of creatures had reached the point where it was almost impossible for him to continue avoiding them all.He wasn't sure where he was headed anymore as he Began flying through tunnels at random. There was no time to think. All he knew was that he needed to get away from these things no matter what.As the Strings caught up Rio removed his hind talons and replaced them with cannons as he filled the tunnel with the echoes of his destruction.He rained down fire down the tunnels behind him blasted through the swarm of strings reaching for him. This would have been amazing for him if not for the fact that they would just come back stronger.There was no more space in the tunnel for more strings to become visible to Rio, but he could hear the sounds of rumbling behind him as they raged.Rio too

    With the room clear, Rio can hear the distinct sound of gears turning behind the closed doors.As the gears turn the door opens exposing an interior full of rusted machinery. The sounds of flowing sand audible from within the chamber.Rio took a quick glance around the room as he flew inside.The walls were covered with various pipes and tubes that were connected to the walls, ceiling, and floors.The room was steaming from the many pipes and causing Rio to sweat.The place was like a sauna as the heat only got worse as he continued further into the space."What kind of place is this? What kind of machine produces this level of Heat." Rio ponders as he continues to inspect the area.After taking a few moments to take in his surroundings, Rio began looking around for the sound of the humming.The volume of the humming had grown substantially after passing through the door.It was loud enough to hear even with the blaring Mechanisms working within the room.Following the sound, He comes

    Rio began flying around the room looking for anything he could use to his advantage as the old man returned to controlling the town.Rio noticed several large sigils carved into the walls, despite the heat radiating from within the room, the sigils remained cool. Looking closely he noticed that they each had the image of a familiar book front in center.The book was similar to what Alberoth had appeared to him as before he was reborn."Hey, Alberoth! Do you want to explain what this is?"Rio was pissed at the thought of being trapped in a town created by this childish book.manifesting himself, Alberoth hesitated before giving his attempt at an apology."Okay, So I may have had one or two apprentices here or there. But none of them were this strong, as far as I remember. Although, I guess it has been a few years since I was last awake." Alberoth tried his best to give a reasonable explanation as to why his own student was capable of restraining his power."One or two?" Rio questioned

The blast was sent hurtling down the room as the sand beneath it turned to glass.Hitting its mark, the room booms as sand is flung everywhere and smoke fills the empty space.The old man and Rio, watch intently as the smoke clears revealing a large metallic cocoon.

"Soon there will be nothing to stop our conquest. This world will belong to our kind once more. And I will become the spearhead to bring his majesty's plans to fruition. I will show these fools that they are nothing compared to my mighty strength." He spoke loudly to himself as he made his way towards the edge of the room.

    A week passed since Rio had left the distorted town. He had become more accustomed to his new abilities as he travelled down the side of the road. Without a car, Rio was forced to make his move by foot. And Despite not knowing where he was, Rio pressed on.His power over earth had become a reliable tool alongside the journey. Although its level was low, it was still useful for him. He could sense the vibrations through the earth, giving him a full 360 radius of vision at all times.It was an almost perfect addition to his skills. The only problem was that as of yet, He was unable to physically control the earth around him. There were too many limits on his power but if he was able to find a way to increase its level, He might be able to match the powers of the old man.He continued down the path until he came across a group of people sitting on the side of the road. His sight had been enhanced which allowed him to make out the group, even in the dead of night. They didn't seem to be h

    Hiro focuses his mana and summons a barrier around himself while Rio rains down fire on the crowd of Larissa clones. Rio's orbs tear through the clones like paper. Each one falling to the ground after receiving a direct hit from Rio's barrage. The sound of impact echoes across the area as dozens more clones fall to the ground dead or dying. Seeing the destruction that the wolf was able to cause in such a small amount of time, Larissa gasps in amazement. "This is what it means to have real power. I'll definitely make you mine." Larissa whispers softly. Her eyes glow brightly with excitement as she approaches Rio. "Come on now, come to mama." She charges forward at him, avoiding the fire coming from above Rio. As she gets closer, He readies himself. Stabbing her dagger towards RIo, Hiro swiftly moves in to block the strike with his sword and slashes downward towards her. Larissa dodges the slash effortlessly but her eyes widen in shock when Hiro grabs her arm with his free hand.

    Turning her attention back to Hiro, Larissa places a finger to her chin thoughtfully. "I think I'll take my sweet time getting rid of you first. Then I can take my time with your companion," With that Larissa teleports behind Hiro and wraps her arms around his neck. Hiro struggles against her grasp but finds it difficult as he can feel his power fading as she takes hold on him. Hiro continues to struggle against her, until Fye sends Larissa crashing to the floor. Hiro quickly distances himself from Larissa to catch his breath and as he does so Larissa steps out from the crater left from her landing. "I'm going to ask that you don't interrupt me when I'm working, young lady. I will get to you when it is your turn. In the meantime, How about you play with these guys." Larissa snaps her fingers causing the ground to shake. From within the earth rise several zombies which crawl out from the soil. Each zombie stands tall and menacing with rotting flesh covering their bodies. "Now t

    The First General

    6 months fly by as Hiro continues his training under Gaius. With every passing day, Hiro becomes more comfortable with using his magic. Rio was worried when their training had begun taking longer than he had hoped but, his worries faded when he looked at how much time he had left. Despite being in the trial for 6 months It seemed to have only been around 6 days outside. And with all this time Rio was able to reap the benefits of Gaius's training as Hiro was becoming more and more powerful. Hiro was now at a state where even Gaius was beginning to have trouble handling him, and Gaius knew that Zack would be ready to head out into the world. Gaining permission from the king, Gaius gave Hiro a set of armor and weapons. Hiro wore the outfit proudly as he headed out to the castle's entrance. There he met Zack who was waiting for him. Once they arrived, Hiro was given a map with a destination marked on it. Zack told him that this was a place known as the city of the dead. According to

    Gaius walks out into the field and tosses his spear at Hiro. He fumbles with the weapon for a bit until it finally slips from his grasp and bangs against the ground. "Don't break it now. I only have one of those" Gaius chuckles as he watches Hiro pick the spear up from the ground. As soon as Hiro picks up the spear, Gaius plants his feet and stares down the boy. "Come on now, don't make me wait too long. Just come and give me your best shot. Hiro swallows nervously and clenches his fists tightly as he stares at Gaius. He had spent the previous night practicing how to use his power defensively but had failed to learn how to use it offensively. Knowing that his best choice would be to just try his best, Hiro runs at him with the spear in hand. He wields the weapon clumsily as he rushes at Gaius. Before he can make contact, however, Gaius blocks Hiro's path by raising his arms to block the attack. Gaius grips him by the neck and throws his body back to where he started. "I know y

    The next morning, Rio and Hiro hurry to the training grounds as per Zack's request. Hiro's eyes were red and swollen from lack of sleep. His hair looked messy as if he hadn't washed it recently either. Despite these signs, his face remained full of determination as he faced off against his mentor. Gaius was already waiting for them when they arrived. He stood tall and proud with his spear held by his side. "By the look of you, I'm guessing that you didn't get much sleep." Gaius states bluntly as he looks over Hiro. Hiro shakes his head in response. "I might not have gotten much sleep, But you will see the impact of all of my efforts soon." Hiro explains confidently. Gaius narrows his eyes slightly before responding. "Cockiness is not an attractive trait, But I will allow you a bit of pride if what you say is true. Now then, How about you prove to me how strong you are today?" Gaius says as he steps forward with his spear raised high above his head. Without hesitation, Hiro readi

    "Again!...Again!...AGAIN!!!" Gaius shouts as he continuously slams his spear and fist into Hiro. Hiro groans as he pushes himself up to his feet yet again. Not giving up, Hiro takes the beating while attempting to draw on the power from before. But no matter how many times he tries it, Hiro remains unable to protect himself. Gaius smacks Hiro upside the head with his free hand, sending him flying through the air and crashing into a training dummy. Hiro hits the wooden structure with such force that it cracks beneath his weight before collapsing entirely. "Damnit!" Gaius curses as he runs over to Hiro and picks him up off the floor. "Maybe we should take a quick break. If we continue at this pace, you won't live long enough to even see real combat." Gaius sighs while dusting Hiro off. "We'll come back tomorrow when your wounds have healed. Until then, I want you to keep practicing on manifesting your power." Hiro nods in agreement with his exhausted body. As Gaius walks away from

"Gaius, this is the Hero that we mentioned before. He will be joining us in the near future. And we have much work ahead of us before then."Gaius bows his head respectfully and nods his head in greeting. He then turns his attention back to Hiro as he extends his hand.

    The rest of the day passes by smoothly with Rio and Fye focusing on their given tasks while Hiro rests in the bed. Then next morning, Rio is awakened to the sound of a knock coming from outside the room. It takes a moment for his eyes to adjust to the light as he sits up in his bed and orders Hiro to open the door. As soon as Hiro opens the door, Rio spots a man dressed in a black robe and holding a book in his hand. He seems familiar to Rio as he stands there in front of the door. "He must have been one of the men accompanying the king earlier." Rio figured as he stretched out his body. "Good morning hero." The man says to Hiro while giving a slight bow. "I hope that your night was well." The robed man adds after seeing Fye sitting in the corner of the room. "Yeah it was pretty good. I was able to get some sleep. Hiro tells the man in response as he invites him inside. "Rio had given Hiro the ability to answer independently for the time being. Although he wanted full control o

    The two of them are led to a bedroom with large windows that overlook the city. The city is bustling and filled with people and traffic. As Rio and the young boy enter the room and close the door, the young boy begins to take a seat upon the bed. As Rio and the boy sit on the edge of the bed and face each other, the king begins to speak. "This will be where you will be staying during your time with us in the grand kingdom of Chania. I will allow you some time to rest for the day as you will be busy tomorrow as we help you gain control of your new powers. Have a good night, Hero." The king leaves the room and closes the door, leaving Rio and the young boy alone to take in their surroundings. As soon as they are alone, Rio activates his domination to gain control over the boy. With full control of his powers returned to him, Rio figures that it's in his best interest to take the reins personally in this trial. Especially if the boy's powers turn out to be of use to him.
