LOCATION:GALAXY: ELEVENPLANET: YggdraThe planet Yggdra is the largest and most populated planet in the Eleven Galaxy. Its size is nearly half of that of planet Jupiter, but unlike the gas planet, this planet does contain lifeforms.Yggdra is home to thousands of unique species of plants not seen on any other planet in the cosmos. Because of this, the inhabitants of the planets were known throughout the cosmos for producing renowned doctors and healers who could heal almost all diseases."Finally landed." Victor's mini-cruiser had just landed in a forest.The stars were like lucid snowflakes of silver as they sprinkled the night sky.The captain of the Ebon Phantom exited the cruiser carrying a bag around his shoulder.He was awed at the serenity of the forest."This place hasn't changed one bit," he said, grinning. "It's as beautiful as ever."Using leaves that he gathered around him, Victor covered the mini-cruiser. "I doubt anyone from the city will come all the way over here. Bu
Tyson and Xing sat across one another in the dining room.They ate in silence without uttering a word.Tyson would peek a look at Xing, who was concentrating on her food."Spill it?" She said without averting her gaze from her plate."Eh?"The android sighed. "I know what's going on in that thick head of yours," She pointed at him with her fork. "How can an android eat?"She had always noticed Tyson giving her looks whenever they ate together. The white-haired man had always wanted to satisfy his curiosity.Tyson coughed. "I mean, it's not like I don't want to know..." He glanced at the android.Xing placed her hand on her chest. "The Astro rock inside of me is like a battery." She stated. "By eating, I can recharge the said battery. I also have a taste sensor in my mouth which allows me to perceive the taste of the food I eat. Is that all?""Wow, the people who made you are amazing. I've met a couple of androids in the BSA but none like you.""Than-""They're also less annoying thoug
"Reaper's Storm!" "Incredible..." Tyson was fazed by the sight in front of him.Kinkaid had created what looked like a storm of purple-colored astral blades with his scythes.The blades are aimed at Xing and the android takes off, dashing around the room in a desperate effort to avoid the attack."From a single swing of his scythe, he created this devastating attack... Astral could be used in a way like this as well." Tyson finds himself learning more about astral as their fight progresses.The Blade storm ended with Kinkaid laughing maniacally. Xing stood across the room with several cut marks. "Even the bot couldn't dodge them all," Tyson said nervously. "Kikikiki." Kinkaid snickered. "You managed to dodge over a dozen of those blades. Yes! It won't be fun if the prey doesn't put up a challenge." He wore a malefic grin as he spun his scythe over his head. "Reaper's Storm!" He swung his scythe once again, firing another wave of astral blades, all aiming at Xing. The android cli
"So, what do we do with him?"Xing asked Tyson as they stood in front of the unconscious body of their attacker."Honestly, I want to kill him." He paused then scanned Kinkaid. 'He's about my age. We're of the same age, yet he's way beyond my league... For now.'"He has a higher rank than that witch. Meaning, he'll have more information than she ever has. We'll take him to Zera once our bastard of a captain returns."Xing silently looks at Tyson.The ex-hunter felt uneasy over the stare and glared at her."What?" He asked, taking a deep breath."Over the short period that you've been here, you've changed. The old you would have wanted to throw this psycho overboard the soonest.""Yeah well..." He scratches his head. He had never expected to hear such words from her. "You two have rubbed off on me. Tell everyone I said that and I'll be throwing you overboard."Xing smiles. "Sure, let's pretend you can do that." She walks out of the room, leaving Tyson alone with the scythe-wielder.The
You need to learn to keep your emotions in check."Xing scolded Tyson. She had witnessed his outburst earlier thanks to the surveillance cameras that were in the cell room."Tck, I didn't know what came over me." Tyson faced his plate.The two of them were having a meal in the dining room."Well, whatever it is. You have to be more careful. You were releasing pulses of your astral energy. Anymore and you could have fried the circuits of the room, thus freeing that psycho.""Sorry..." Tyson said.'Hmm, no snarky comment? That shows at least that he knows how to accept his mistakes.'"Well, no real damage occurred. But just be more careful please.""I will."'I thought I had my emotions in check. Why did I lose control? He didn't really say anything to vex me that way.' Lost in his thoughts, Tyson was unaware of the alarm that was sounded off."Tyson!" Xing snapped him out."Huh? What?""We have more intruders! They've already boarded the cruiser!" She warned."Great," He rolled his eye
"Are you ready to despair?""Captain, are you alright?"Xing rushed to Victor's side.The two glared over at Tyson. He was covered in his astral skin."Master Knight, Lady Xing. What is our course of action?"Victor rubbed the spot he was struck earlier."Simple, we knock some senses into snow-white before he loses his mind completely."He grins before unsheathing his sword. Xing had only just noticed the sword and gasps."That's...""Hehe, I didn't see Kris if that's what you want to know.""I see..." She muttered."Well then, I'll have you two steps back." Victor grinned as Xing and Tristan took a few steps back, leaving him to face the berserk Tyson."Snow-white. I don't want to be the one to do this, but you better snap out of whatever it is that's going on in that noggin of yours. Or I might actually hurt you a little."Tyson responded with a snarl. Creating a black astral blade, he glares at his captain."Get in my way, and I'll destroy you! The same way that I'll destroy the as
"This place again?"Tyson found himself back inside the astral plane."What's happening?" He clenched his head. "Last thing I recall wa- ack!!" He felt a jolt of unbearable pain.Crying out in pain, the ex-hunter grabbed his head and squatted."Huhuhu. It's time.""Who's there!" Tyson shouted, still suffering from the striking and increasing headache."It's been what? 2 weeks since you were here, and you've already forgotten about me. Tsk, tsk, tsk. I can't say I'm not disappointed by the vessel."Tyson raised his head and in front of him was the faceless humanoid being he met when he first entered the astral plane."It's you," he said weakly. "The Etherian.""Bingo!""What's happening outside?""You're attacking your friends.""What?" He widened his eyes."The power I planted inside of you has awakened.""Power? What power?""Well, one of the powers, actually."The Etherian walked circles around Tyson with his hands resting behind his back."The pain you're feeling, it's the bonding
"Rise and Shine, Snow-white!" "Huh?" Tyson slowly started regaining consciousness after yesterday's event. He opened his eyes to see Victor, Xing and Tristan looking down at him. "Guys, I'm ba-" Before he could finish, he paused to look around himself. The first thing he noticed was that his hands were chained with cuffs similar to the ones they used on Kinkaid. He sat up to see that he was not in his room."Tck, what's the meaning of this!?" The ex-hunter snapped. "We can ask you the same thing," Xing replied. "What got over you?" She asked, shooting him a hardened gaze. "I don't know." Tyson was reluctant to tell them about the Etherian."I believe you do, Master Tyson." Tristan pointed. "Is that why you guys locked me up in here!" He snarled. "Where we kept our enemies. Am I the enemy now?" He frowned upon them before looking at Victor. Victor did not wear his usual grin. "We decided we couldn't have you lurking around the cruiser with us if you could seep back into that craz
