The world, The universe, they are very unique.
The people living in this vast universe are nothing but tiny specks of dust waiting to be blown away by the force of the universe.
The force governing the universe we call Ellah has its reach on each and every one of our destinies.
As such, there existed the consciousness of the universe.
This being reincarnated through generations.
In a world bound by destiny, the progenitor was the one who was imprisoned.
The prisoner was destined to meet his end by his fellow worshipers for such was his fate.
(If any thing is created then something is destroyed for such is the law of the universe)
(The time had arrived for the world that was created to pay it's price)
This, is the story of the progenitor of this universe that I am monitoring.
[My name is Zene Lach.
I have officially been recognized as the private bodyguard of Mr. Mikoyama.
The 9 Rings are not likely to find our location any time soon.
Mr. Mikoyama is strange.]
"Strange?!", Mr. Mikoyama wondered as he looked at the journal Zene Lach was writing.
"Sir, Mikoyama", Zene Lach stood up.
"Put the sir aside", Mr. Mikoyama replied.
"So, What are you doing Zene?"
"I am bored, that's all"
"It's nice seeing you getting absorbed into various things", Mr. Mikoyama said with a grin.
(This is Mr. Mikoyama)
(The man I am protecting is basically our country's greatest asset)
(He is not from this country but rather is in negotiation with ours to protect him from The 9 Rings)
"Sir the medications for Miss Clara have arrived", Zene stated while looking at Natsuki.
"Yes, I know of that"
"Are the medicines of any help to her?", he inquired.
"As of now there is no noticeable change but at least her condition is not getting any worse than it already is, Zene"
"Yes sir"
"Zene, You seem to have learnt the values of human emotions", Natsuki stated with a grin on his face.
"I don't think I will ever understand human emotions like you Mikoyama"
"Haha, Sure", Mr. Mikoyama said as he shrugged.
(Mr. Mikoyama is a genius despite being only 26 he still managed to pull off so many extraordinary feats)
(Maybe... It was fate that I met this man)
***
Zene Lach recollected one of his forgotten memories after arriving in the land of peace.
For he was a boy born in the battlefield and was willing to die on one.
{Rumble*}
It was raining heavily as the camp was flooded with water while the lightning struck the wet sand.
{Zene Lach, You have a Mission}
{We want you to find this man, Stand by his side and gather Intel for us}
The white haired man ordered his men to fulfill their roles for his grand plan.
{He is the fragment prophesied by many generations}
{You must get him to join the rest of us}
Zene was a soldier and his purpose was to fulfill his mission and he had no right to question his purpose even if it meant that he had to kill someone he held dearly in his heart.
***
"I don't think I am anything more than a soldier", Zene said to Mikoyama.
"I have no such thing known as emotions, to me it's only my mission that I care about Mr. Mikoyama"
"There you go around using honorifics again", Natsuki grumbled.
"..."
"Hey Zene, With that face of yours why don't you try your chance in the film industry "
"What's so good about acting?"
"If you don't feel emotions then why don't you fake it"
"See whether you like the taste of it or not and maybe who knows one day you might find your Juliet"
"I don't want to die for something such as love, Mikoyama "
"Love is something precious enough to spend more than one life away on it, Zene"
"This is why I call you strange Mr. Mikoyama"
"Haha, Ok"
"Natsu!", Miss. Clara called out to Mikoyama.
His attention diverted in an instance, the love he has for her is just unreal to me.
"Yes!"
"It seems like Growly has left its leash again", Zene added.
"Yeah, Guess you got work to do", Mikoyama replied.
"I am not going after that dog", Zene stated.
"Eh?"
"I am not paid for this", Zene replied.
Sigh*
Mikoyama left the room and Zene continued writing his journal in solitude.
(He is strange indeed)
(Despite being only 6 years older than me somehow whenever I talk to him it feels like I am talking to a really really old man)
Aargh*
I felt a sharp throbbing pain in my head.
(Those memories again!)
August 13 1999
{Zene}
{You have a mission}
It was 2 years before I became Natsuki Mikoyama's personal guard.
{Find the man called Natsuki Mikoyama}
{Bring him to the 9 Rings}
The camp was fluttering due to the winds.
The white haired man in front of me gave me my mission.
{Make sure that you capture him alive}
(I am a soldier, I only know of one thing and it is my mission)
When I think of it now after I have been acquainted with him it just feels different.
(His appearance, it was a blessing but also a curse placed upon me)
"But"
"For once, I would like to know what it is to love someone"
"If I find them, will I ever be as happy as you are Mikoyama?"
"Despite the things you are facing how can you be so kind to me?"
"How very strange"
"I wish, I wish I had met you earlier but now I simply have no other choice"
"I am sorry Natsuki Mikoyama"
[...]
From far away an entity watched over this world.
An entity beyond human comprehension.
An entity the entire world prophesied of its coming.
[So]
[Thy beginning is near]
[Thy faith and destiny shall lead you to your apparent end]
The being looked down upon the world as HE glimpsed at his chess pieces.
The coming of the scenarios is near.

22 June 2001 "Mr. Mikoyama" "Hmm?" Zene approached Natsuki who was standing in the sun light watering the plants. "Sir, What is it like to fall in love?" Zene stared at natsuki while the man giggled over the teen's curiosity."Good question Kid" The tall young man approached the teen as he held his cowboy hat while smoking a cigar. "When you look at a woman and your wedge shaped grape turns into a sledge hammer" "When that woman touches you the endorphins burst and you laugh like a dolphin over your premature clarity " "When you gain her trust shall you smash her crust!", Natsu kept on blabbering his emotions out. "Ok!", Zene yelled out loud after hearing the stupid answer Natsuki gave him."Let me rephrase it" "How did you meet Miss Clara", Zene questioned. "Once upon a time" "I don't have that much time Natsuki!" "Calm down kid you are not going anywhere with that level of patience" "Forget it", Zene replied. "Ok! Hear me out!" ...

I am Zene Lach For I have died in a car accident. [Zene Lach is that your name] What? I felt a sudden bright light flash up on my closed eyes. [Are you Zene?] Who is it speaking? [Behind you Mr.Zene] My eyes scrolled across the vast white plain and stopped in front of a figure. He looked like a tall man. Wearing white robes and gold plated on his shoulders. He perhaps wore a mask which gave a muffled yet deep voice. [Tell me are you Zene the actor] How do you know me? [ I am a huge fan and we are also acquainted in a sense] Acquainted? Who are you? [ I have various names but let me make it easier for you and name myself THE GREATEST FRAGMENT] It was then I met him for the first and last time perhaps. Am I dead?, I thought.

"He can't see you Jin" He is calling me, I think he wants some food. "Do as you wish now let me sleep" Jin gathered a box filled with apples and sneaked out into the backyard.

(Here my command and you shall find the path) (Take those objects near the desk!) The voice pointed out towards a lighter and a torch. (You need to go to the pines) Aren was first reluctant to her the voice but somewhere deep inside she felt guilty for the trouble that was caused. Aren went to the backyard and opened the backgate. The cold breeze flowing through the Pine trees was enough to scare a grown adult. But she stood there unfazed.

It had been 5 years since that incident. { Glurg* "Aren?", Jin inquired. ... She stood there like a mannequin. [You have exceeded the probability] "We have found the lost children!" "3 of them were found in the car" "The last child must have been left behind in the traffickers basement" "We are going in chief!" Aren? Aren can you hear me, why are you not replying? Jin began to tremble. Her eyes began to lose their colour and turned dull while she stood there lifeless. "Oh my god" Sir, You have to come look at this. "Is there any obstacle officer?" We might have found something quite disturbing. Those white bags that are hanging down in the basement I think they are the lost children over the past 3 years. ... "Move, Move, Move!"

Vroom* The atmosphere was so silent just like the saying 'calm before the storm'. Aren and her grandma sat in the royal Royce back seat while staring outside the window on either side. "Your principal called me, Yi So Yeon" "My school has 14 year old getting pregnant and the principal is out there going after an innocent girl""Your attendance is below 25%" "That guy has no other work after all huh?", Aren sighed."Ya!!! It's our school you little gremlin!" "That's what I am saying Grandma, when our school has drug abuse, shootings, pregnancies and whatnot, he is still licking your foot instead of doing the thing!""Hey let me ask you something" "Hmm?", Aren looked keenly into her Grandmother's eyes."You got an F1 cup, went for Under 18 championships in basketball and got sponsored for a football club" "Do you want to impress some guy or what?"

Wahh* Uwaah* How did I end up in this situation? "Wow she is pretty!" A fat guy complimented her as he fixed up his glasses. "You need something?" "Um, That window seat is mine" "Oh is it?", Aren said as she frowned. The man was wide enough to push her off her seat as she fell to the ground. "Are you ok miss?" "Do I look like I am ok to you, hurry up and pull me up!" (How did I end up in this situation again?) Flashback* (I am going to Korea!) (If I don't get all A+ then I am not Yi So Yeon) Ah Grandma!

His Metamorphosis Zene Lach
Wait for me! Aren pulled the young boy which led to him tripping and falling on top of her. He stared at her almost unaffected by her stunning looks. He got up and brushed his coat off as he held his arm out for her to get up. "We are gonna get late to school so try not to hold me back", he said as he turned around on his way to school. Aren stared at him blankly as she followed him. "We are here" Is this Gangbuk high?, Aren inquired. "Yes" She stared at the school with characteristic brick red and white pattern. "It's so calm, unlike ours", Aren said. "That's cause you are late" The young boy said as he showed the way to the class.

"I created you, Zene", Trotsky replied. "You and Aliyonah both were my creations that I brought up in a lab" "While I never gave her any memories after her creation but the same I couldn't have possibly applied on you" "I needed you to have those memories, I needed you to be ready when the time came" "I threw the both of you in that military camp, because it was what I was supposed to do" Zene looked at him while his eyes narrowed down. "Those memories of yours, all of them were a lie" "A fabricated story" Zene fell on the cold snow, his body started trembling while he couldn't reason with the storm of emotions that ran inside of him. He cuddled himself while tears ran down from his eyes. Zene felt like a failure, he lost the one thing that reminded him that he was not just a weapon but once may have been a human as well. {Zene it is better to die as a human than as a weapon, don't you think} Natsuki's words did no better, his mind was not reasoning. {Zene, wh

A fatal lie
Huff Puff Agent opened his eyes only for him to look at a surreal landscape. Volcanoes erupted from the ground, craters that spanned kilometers wide. Oceans that soared hundred feet high and the world that we once knew was in a state of apocalypse. Creatures that defied science, the world turned closer to fantasy than reality. His skin started sweating while the heat suffocated him. He looked around to find a giant monster stand in front of him, a being with one eye, it's span crossing hundred meters wide and standing as tall as an empire state building. He looked at the monster as it now faced him. With a single breath of that monster his body dissipated to thin dust. Huff Puff Agent woke up as he layed on the snow. He looked around as his hazy vision turned clear. There he was Vladamir Trotsky standing in front of him while Lisa herself was knocked unconscious. Agent layed on the ground with no strength left in his body to get up. "What was that thing tha

The cold winds brushed past their faces with the freezing cold that turned their lips numb. While their muscles ached on top of the lack of air made it difficult to carry forward with the luggage strapped behind their backs. "Zene did you bring the oxygen cylinders?", Lisa inquired. Zene stopped and dropped the heavy bag on the ground. "Take it, We need to move quickly before the sun sets", Zene stated while he looked at the peak that was hundreds of meters ahead of them. Huff Puff "I feel light in the head as well", Agent replied. "We need to move quickly to find some shelter before the cold gets the best out of us", he added. "Zene, you were the one that carried all the load" "How are you still standing still?", Agent inquired. "I keep my body under equilibrium while I maintain control on my fragment" "I see", Agent looked ahead of them. "Are you done, Lisa?", Agent asked out loud.

Our Reunion
Cling Clang A guard approached the solitary cell and opened the heavy metal door open. The place was drak with no lighting on the inside, there he was the man in question groaning at the flash of bright light onto his sunken eyes. "Dimitri Popov, I have some questions for you", Zene stated with a smile on his face. Screech* Zene closed the metal door and placed a lamp for lighting the room. "Never saw a guard like you, must be a new one", Dimitri murmured. "It wouldn't be a stretch if I told you that I came all this way for you", Zene replied. "I am but a lifer that has been serving in this prison for fifty years, what use would I be to a young handsome man such as you, sir." With wrinkles all over his face and the sunken eyes alongside his tired expressions spoke more words than any stories told by the inmates in the lunch hours.

"What do you mean by that?", Aren inquired while she sat on the table. Sigh* "I will not answer any questions related to you, do you understand that?", Trotsky grumbled. "When you told my father to find his path, his purpose did you mean something?" "Your father, he wished to find the reason behind his existence and that's when he came up with an idea" "Natsuki! We did it, We discovered a new element!!!", Mokshith yelled out loud out of joy. "Guys, Guys I have something to tell", Natsuki calmed the boys down. "Now that we have finished our last project, I think I want to move on to the next phase of my life" "Where are you headed to, Natsuki?", Trotsky inquired. "I have decided to go on a journey around the world to find my purpose" "You want us to come along?", Mokshith inquired. "He meant to go alone on this journey, Mokshith", Trotsky replied. "Ah, that sucks" "We have finished all the projects that we dreamed of building, didn't we?", Natsuki stated. "..

"You should get some sleep, Mokshith", Trotsky suggested while he wiped his face dry. "I can stay up a bit longer", he replied while looking at the ward inside which natsuki was bedridden. "I hope he wakes up soon", Mokshith stated. "He will anytime now", Trotsky murmured quietly. Huff Puff Natsuki woke up from that everlasting nightmare only for him to look at the attire of his inside the hospital. His face was covered in bandages, his entire body was covered in cloth to heal his burn wounds. Natsuki gasped for air as he looked around to find a nurse stare at him with popped out eyes. "Doctor!", the nurse screamed out loud. Huff Puff Natsuki looked around as his hazy vision started to clear up. There they were men that he once knew stood in front of him with worried eyes. "Are you okay?" "Natsuki can you hear me?", Mokshith yelled out loud. Their voices were muffled and his ears were constantly ringing. He looked at the white room with bright lights fl

"So you finally woke up, huh", Lisa stared at Zene who was gasping to get some fresh air. "What time is it?", Zene groaned. "It's 11 am and Agent drove us near to the prison while you slept all night", Lisa replied. "Where is he?", Zene inquired. "He should come back any moment now" "Guys get out of the car", Agent pulled out a suitcase that cared their essentials. "Where are you going?", Zene asked. "We will be staying inside the hotel for a day or two", Agent replied. Sigh* Lisa fell on the soft bed and began stretching her body for some comfort. Moan* "Stop making weird sounds", Zene grumbled. "Does it excite you, my boy?", Lisa chuckled. "Piss off" "Zene, shall we take a look at the jail?", Agent inquired while he brought out a file related to the target. "Right let's get it over

An everlasting dream
As soon as we arrived at the church we saw a couple kissing each other. And that's when I first saw Natsuki cry. "That's Clara", he murmured. "Who, I can't see any girl nearby", Mokshith squinted for better view. "Is she the one that kissed that guy" "Yeah", Natsuki looked gloomy while tears trickled down from his eyes. "I did everything I could man" Natsuki glared at the couple unaware of his presence. "And some random guy comes in and takes her away with little to no effort" His veins popped as he glared at them with his teeth gritting against one another. "It's unfair" "Natsuki, Listen man you need to chill out", Mokshith tried to calm him down. Natsuki went through hell day after day and not once did his fragment respond. But today, his fragment took over him. [Fragment of Origin] His body was covered in weird tattoo marks with flesh burning from within him.

"How will I produce such energy, Vladamir?", Natsuki asked out of confusion. "So, first up we have to start things back from square one" "You need to remove all the knowledge that you had behind, do you understand?", Trotsky added. "Yeah explain it to us", Mokshith replied. "So, do you know what fragments both of you possess, gentlemen?" "I possess the fragment of light, am I correct?", Mokshith replied. "That is correct" "And you Natsuki" "Me?" "I don't think I ever felt this thing that you call fragments" Sigh* "That's really weird, all of your kind should be able to sense it, do you feel anything weird inside your body?" Natsuki paused momentarily as he tried to sense something within him. His concentration was all diverted towards his torso in an attempt to sense this feeling or presence of the fragments. As he explored through the darkness, Natsuki witnessed two flame orbs revolving around one another. "Do you see it, Natsuki?" "I can see flames and that's about i
