Invasion: the apocalypse 7.5: BETRAYAL
From above them, a long vine with hundreds of needle sharp spikes swing itself down in their direction, as Astra studies it, she noticed that it was long enough to reach them from the roof of the forest and although it was covered in spikes that can skewer a person if they hit them; she noticed an even bigger thing about the vines she should watch out for. Each of them stood in place and watched the vine miss them. The tip of the vine is accumulated into a thick round ball shaped structure that both carry much of the vine’s weight and help it gain momentum when it swings. “So this is more a wrecking ball trap than an actual spike trap, but the wrecking balls at the end of the vines are also covered with the spikes as well.” Astra said to herself. She threw one of her swords and hit the bulb on the vine, cutting it open and making the sliced half fall on the floor and the vines to splatter a fluid on the floor as well. A foul smell immediately covered the entire place and Astra could
Invasion: the apocalypse 7.6: A NEW LIGHT
Astra slowly opened her eyes to the beating of drums and a chorus humming of people surrounding her. She tried to recall what happened last before she passed out and Adriel came to her mind. ‘That is right, I was with Adriel and the guard Claria, we went past the forest fighting the venomous apes and I used an aether blast to clear a way for us but I was bitten by a flying severed ape head. But where am I? We were in the canyon or something last I checked. What is that sound?’ Astra murmured to herself and tried to roll around but was met with a pain unlike she has ever felt in her life. As the pain surges from her arm, through her neck and all the way down her spine, she let out a loud grunt that made all of the persons humming around her to stop for a second, maintained the silence for a while before bursting into loud chants in a language she has never heard of before. With a fresh sweat breaking on her forehead, Astra turned her head and realized that she was bound hands and leg
Invasion: the apocalypse 7.7: TRIAL OF THE XURA TRIBE
Astra open her eyes once again and found herself in yet again another unfamiliar place. They have covered her entire hand in what looks like a green paste of plant leaves and stem. The first thing she noticed was that her pain has subsided to almost none. She could no longer feel the throbbing headache that was making her dizzy before and she could feel all of the fingers on her right arm, which were numb before. Immediately she stood up, the two men from before walked into the room and stood before her. She immediately took a fight stance that made the two of them immediately take some steps back and raised both hands with fists in position for blocking her attacks. Astra immediately stood back up properly and the two men started laughing hysterically at her, each of shaking his head and talking in a language she still has no idea what they are saying. They each put a bright smile on their faces and approached her with an arm in a gesture to show her that they were not there to hu

Some hours earlier, house Estelona’s five shadow assassins have crossed the desert and arrived at the forest, as usual they kept their caution and staying hidden in the shadows as they move, they followed Adriel’s location using their tracking device. Knowing fully well that Dula the barbarian is not the cooperative type of soldier, although they know fully well that he is very familiar with the abandoned plains of Centauri, they did not waste their time to wait for him and proceeded with their mission even without meeting him at the edge of the forest as they have agreed in the mountain ranges. “They are about to cross the forest into the great pyramidal plain. There is no sign of the barbarian so we will keep moving after the prince. There are numerous dangers in the forest including the venomous apes, stay sharp and hide as much of your presence as you can, let’s go!” the red reaper said as he warps into the shadows of the trees and surrounding plants. The five of them begin to m

“If that is the case, we need to chase after your friend immediately because the shadow assassins of the Estelona house would be catching up to his party very soon!” Dula said as they climb out of the cavern whose room Astra has blown off just a couple of minutes earlier. He pulled out a large horn from his dimensional ring and placed the slimmer tip of the horn in his mouth. With a long gasp of air, he blew the horn so loud that the entire forest echoed the sound of the horn. Dula placed the horn down and made some scribbling on the ground with a dagger and placed a burning torch near the place. “This is so my people will know what is going on. I have also given the elders the directives to start preparing for the day we will need to migrate when the time is ripe.” He said. Astra turned around and looked at him. “Ask them to harvest all the emerald crystals in the nest. There may be larger ones underneath the floor of the cavern as well. Ask them to dig well and pack as much of the
Invasion: the apocalypse 8.0: THE ALIENS ARE US
**(EARTH, HELION TOWER ON THE NORTH AMERICAN CIONTINENT)** Having failed to establish a connection with the Global human federation and failed to identify the leader of the humans, and disgracefully getting injured by the Carter and the emerald ghosts squad when he intruded into the presidential council meeting of the federation after using a very rare and expensive consumable artifact, Mammon has decided that there could not any further embarrassment and dishonor for the Agnus knights than that. He has already ordered the waking of the Rexa twins, who have been in the hibernation chamber since the arrival of the unit through the ring gate. The guards dragged Evor to the tower’s infantry, activated the neural helion puppet unit linker, a large pool of spinal fluid that lubricates the gears of a machine that even the empire’s finest researchers still have no idea how it works. With agonizing pain from the injection he was given before, the soldiers stripped him naked and threw him
Invasion: the apocalypse 8.1: WYVERN ATTACK 1
“For many years we have feared now what will happen to the structure of the empire's power balance if we were to stand up against the tyranny of the Agnus house. Our forefathers have bent to the will of Agnus house all their lives because they so not have any other alternative to the power of helion that the Agnus house control and monopolize. But fellow kings of our proud empire, the time is ripe for us to change that tradition of disgrace and dishonor.” Skar said. Akaris stood up and pointed a finger at Skar with a facial expression that shows he is not swayed at all by the statement that Skar has just made. “Cut the patronizing act Skar, if the Tyra house gets the kind of opportunity and relics that the Agnus house got from the ancestral race, our houses would have been destroyed! So, I would appreciate it if you cut the condescension and just get straight to the point of why you have gathered us here today.” He said. “Calm down Akaris, not that I don’t understand what you are sa
Invasion: the apocalypse 8.2: WYVERN ATTACK 2
Astra immediately sat down near Adriel and calmed her mind down, she activated her helion energy and placed her hands on his head. With a gentle tap, she strike him in the forehead twice and like a miracle, he woke up. She stood up and explained to him what was going on and went to where Claria was lying down unconscious on the floor. She did the same thing for her and woke her up, also explaining the situation to her. Adriel and Claria followed Astra’s orders and climbed the top of the tallest nearby tree just like Dula had initially explained to Astra before she woke the two of them up. Claria and Adriel have their distrust for Dula, but since Astra told them that he is on their side and helped a lot in both saving her and them from the assassins of the Estelona house, both of the chose to go with the flow for the time being. From the distance, a strong wind started blowing, causing a large sandstorm in the desert that Astra and the rest of her party can see even though they were

EARTH**After some hours, the giant ship of house Agnus finally got to earth. It’s entry through the portal made a loud sound just like it did when the portal first opened.

The three other leaders looked at each other hearing the manner in which king Near spoke to them. They immediately realized that they might have fallen into the wrong side.They turned to king Skar again and looked at him without saying a word to him. Then he began to speak again when he was sure that the last thing he said sank into their heads just the way he wants them to understand “first of all. I am going to be the supreme leader of all the houses combined together. The three of you are going to be my subjects that will answer to me. If you agree to that, you can go back and tell your subjects and also denounce your throne as kings. This is the only condition on which you will be joining the salvation ship to Terra, otherwise, you stay here and die”Shina, Jeroth and Akaris were speechless for a while trying to be sure that king Skar isn’t joking or mistaking. They kept looking at him in the most awkward manner. King Jeroth stood up and walked towards skar, then he turned after

So the base needs as much soldiers as possible” sergeant Brook said.“I see. As you can see, I have a full army and we are ready to fight. We don’t need to join forces with anybody” Hector replied.“You know how strong the aliens are. All humans must fight together. We have weapons. Very sophisticated weapons” sergeant Brook said.“Am sorry. You have to leave now” Hector replied.Disappointed and unsure of who these people are, sergeant Brook simply stood up and turned back.

Astra has not done what she is expected to do but for some reason the primitives are cheering her up for cutting loose the man she is supposed to kill.The crowd is cheering because to them it takes an extra courage and lots of ruthlessness to kill the person and rip the persons heart after a fight with the person. And that is what they all thought Astra was about to do.Astra is now standing behind the man who is facing the other directions and backing her. The man seems to be a warrior or a fighter somewhere because of his good boxer’s standing position.Kira and Mita are standing right in front of him. Whole Astra is standing behind the man. As the man is turning and trying to find the best standing position, which doesn’t seem to be happening, he felt a person behind him.

Few hours later, it was morning and time to keep moving no where. There is no direction and not any single form of guide for Astra and her friends. The only thing they want to do is to stay as far away from the aliens as possible.They got up quickly and began to walk without knowing where they are headed.“While we think we are running away from the aliens, we might actual be going toward them” kira said.“at least we will know the way we shouldn’t go” Astra replied.While commander Tyra and his drone soldiers are seriously searching, they seem to have gone the wrong way because Astra, kira and Mita have been walking for more than five hours now hoping that they ate heading the right way. Or anywhere far from the aliens.About five more miles on the same direction, Astra and her companions sighted the shore of a lake about ten metres out of the woods with fine white sand and a bright gentle flowing water.They were so happy that they could not wait to get there.

Astra is surrounded by more than two hundred enemies of different kind. And everyone of them wants to kill her by all means necessary.The room is very wide and empty, except for the many dead ninja guards of the southern group. She kept looking around trying to find a way to escape this difficult situation.The only openings in the room are highly protected and guarded to prevent her from coming out at all cost. The walls are thick African mud style that even a bullet cannot penetrate. The only softer part of the room is up through the roof.She looked up and tried to examine it carefully. At this moment, she has figured out her best route to escape but she needs the perfect time to do it which she doesn’t know when and how it will happen.Commander Tyra has just stepped a foot on the frame of the door. He stood there and looked all around the room. He knows that the humans from the human federation base are capable of invincibility, he could feel Astra’s presence in the room, althou

But Bolo and several others know that it is definitely not a coincidence that the three leaders came with lots of guards.The meeting is in Bolo’s palace and he is suppose to be the most feared, but today, he seems like the weakest and least feared. But this is only because he has relieved his massive submissive guards.Few minutes later, when everyone was tired of waiting, Bolo stepped into the meeting hall. His arrival is so not what anyone expected it to look like.There were no much guards standing by, or any form of adequate protection any where in the whole palace, and now, Bolo has stepped into a meeting room where no one is smiling with nothing but a female white girl on his side.When Bolo entered, a few people in the hall murmured and

Everyone has gathered to know the reason why Mita screamed so loud.The two dead guards is one thing no one has ever imagined because no one has the guts to cross such a line.The only persons or person who can do a thing like this does not leave any where near Rigasa.
