Dorvin unleashed a halo at Thorace which caught him straight, the flames cleared away unveiling a grinning Thorace still standing on his board, his armour glistening without a single scratch. "You thought that could take me down, didn't you ?" Thorace laughed. "I don't blame you though, because I started it. But if you want to play the game that way, better know that it'll take more than that to bring me down, because now", his being raved with his eyes blazing gold, "I'm ready to fight." Charging at them, his battleboard plunged him into the air, Countering the blow from Dorvin and Nord's swords as he unleashed a halo from his trident and sword at them. Striking its target, it sent them screaming. Swirling around, he parried Zorg's blow with his sword then deflecting Shev's blow

"Surround him !" Norgus ordered. His army of cosmic beasts fell upon Trident from all corners, leaving him no openings to escape. Still finding a gap, Trident bolted through their ranks, their claws trailing after him, breaking free from their grip his being exhumed that massive globe of condensed flames, which dazed them as he blazed past. Following him behind like vultures stalking a dying prey, they shot those fiery orbs at him from behind. Slithering through those stormy walls, Trident kept unleashing his own surge of flames at intervals, taking down tens of them in the process. They were gradually catching up with him, knowing fully well that if he didn't increase his pace he would end up getting caught in those vicious claws and bladed talons. He doubled his pace, but one thing was sure, at this state of his, without evolving, he was definitely going to wear out soon. It fell upon him from above, its talons smashing his back and digging

Trident closed his eyes, he'd just have to raise another shield to hold them back until he got a renewed energetic surge, he thought. But their piercing cries rang again, their limbs falling to the earth flailing. Staring above him, he saw domineering the skies, the Mace, surrounded by its mobile cannons and interstellar chariots, their cores exhuming volleys of halos, beams and orbs upon Norgus' attacking army of cosmic beasts. Turning to his side, Trident sea him standing proudly upon his battleboard, face unmoved and watching it all in silence as the first wave of cosmic beasts were wiped away. "You kept a solid front out there", Thorace commended, "but I saw you were tiring out and that soon, you'd be a flying pinball." "Nice joke", Trident snapped, "if you were here I'd not have to fight in this unevolved state." "Accept my apologies bondmate", Thorace said, "but I'd like to ask one thing." "From what I've seen, I

"Just send it burning Norgus", Zorg grinned with a revenge driven delight, "I can't wait to see him and his pet howling to the thores of death." "I'm already getting it done Zorg", Norgus said his palms falling on that holographic screen, creating a configuration with those geometric shapes. He locked Trident on target setting the Trail Disector for a countdown to fire. "Now I don't expect to ever see him poking how nose into what doesn't concern him ever again." Nord said pleased. Staring into the Trail Disector's core, Thorace could see the complexities surrounding the creation of its immense surge of energy which was rapidly building up within its core, making the atmosphere around it steam with vivid ripples of fire and what it birthed at that moment was just the reflection of that same word - fire. Thorace steeled himself within and so did Trident, who raised his burning shield, prepared to take the mighty blow of that enraged halo. It was going to be tough for the

"But it doesn't eradicate the chance of us getting scattered across dimensions, we'd still have to make use of our cores to keep ourselves safe." Vage continued his explanation. "One more question", Rode called, "is it a cannon or handheld ?" "Handheld", Vage replied, "it may be a microbe compared to the Trail Disector, but they are on par when in action, even in the palms of a man." "Talking about the man", Rode pointed out, "I can see he's taking a break." "Don't underestimate Thorace", Vage checked, "he never runs out of fire." *** *** *** Thorace kneeling on his battleboard descended to the deck of the Mace, panting from the effort he had gave and the strain it had caused him, he nevertheless had the fire within him to keep forging his way forward. So long as the Trail Disector was in the hands of the Feudal Order he was going to keep battling until it was finally his. "Sorry for coming late !" A voice called from above. "I had to do some background

That astral expanse of stars and galaxies scattered across cosmic realms and infinite dimensions unveiled themselves. Flying by, their passing heralding cosmic seas of colossal and opalescent waves, waterfalls of fabric like intensities fluttering like garments within the blowing winds, which all fused into a centripetal pattern of cracks that unveiled that civilization, grand and majestic ; the mighty cities flaring of astral emerald and cosmic gold, and the galaxies revolving in harmony. This hidden realm now unveiled lay before them in all its stellar grandeur and majesty, faded away consumed in that massive explosion that engulfed the entire terrain. Rising from their knees coughing and aching all over, that flaring configuration of ideograms enacted itself before Vage and Thorace and ahead of them, the Trail Disector frayed into ash that trailed its way into the core of the configuration before them, which went through a fission, separating itself into two whole parts that

James eyes fell on his sister's textbook, he too was puzzled as to how Henry had figured out the answer to the the question without even seeing it. And from the look on Judith's face after having turned to the answer section of the textbook, it seemed that Henry was right. "How did you know the answer ?" James asked. Henry walked down the staircase, his schoolbag strapped over his right shoulder and his eyes burning as always. Holding five slices of jammed bread in one hand and a cup of tea in the other, he didn't seem yo take note of the puzzled expression on their faces. Taking a bite at all five slices at once, like a lion he finished everything within a few seconds, downing the entire cup of tea in one gulp. Walking calmly towards Judith, he snatched her note and pen, without using a calculator, he breezed through the phases which led to the answer of the question. "There's the working", dropping the note on the couch, "and we better get going, or else we'll miss the

"But you could get hurt !" James warned. "I'm the one who should he scared for you, it shouldn't be tho other way round", Henry replied, smiling, "If you don't want to get hurt, both of you should wait behind while I clear the way." "You heard him", Judith said grabbing James shoulder, sending him stumbling backwards, "since the stubborn ship insists on walking into the lion's den, it's best we let it be." "You might be wrong Judith", James gave a sarcastic reply as he waved his head in mock grief, "I got a feeling that those guys are the dead ship right now." Judith slapped herself in the face, what was wrong with her elder twin brother that he couldn't see things for what they were. "I know a man who can kill by merely looking at him", James continued, "and to be honest Judith, I saw it in Henry's eyes. He's definitely going to kill someone today." Both brother and sister watched as Henry walked fearlessly

"So you're saying that Samuel", his mother defended, "was going to kill Henry or whoever it is ... that was just a tool to threaten him" "A "tool" you say", Mrs John fired, speaking for the first time since the meeting began, "to threaten someone with ? They attacked Henry, was that anything far from murder ?" Henry stood next to the window, staring at the lawn outside, from above. Apparently, he wasn't concerned with what they were saying. John and Judith shuffled close to each other, glued to a corner, watching the Vice principal and their parents argue about the fight yesterday. Judith took note that Mrs Edna wasn't saying anything, she wasn't even making a move to defend her son Henry. "Can Henry claim that he was ignorant of the fact that they were going to attack him !" Mr Mark challenged. "I didn't know they had "tools" with them", Henry blurted, "I thought it would be a simple case of kicks and punches. Besides, they

PHASE ONE Rakeal who was seated on the throne had only one thing in mind, how to ensure that his campaign wasn't nipped in the bud. The feudal lords of the realm in which he had invaded as well as the emperor of this empire had already began to rally their forces to take him down. But it didn't matter anyway, this was simply a game of politics, most importantly, he had been able to find a clue about the whereabouts of the Harp of Discord. This was one of the realms which was in alignment with the entity's astral flow, which meant that they were on the right path, so why would he give up on his prize over the likes of a few cocky politicians. This war was inevitable right from the very start and it was so unfortunate for them that it was him, that they'd be dealing with. "Zavir", Rakeal summoned. Zavir's form appeared before him on his knees, it wasn't the real Zavir, just a holograph. "Bring me Destovar", Rakeal ordered. "Yes your highness", Zavir replied with the holog

PHASE ONE Standing before the five kneeling warriors at the base of this dais, Norx Hade Zex gave his order. "You must find the Dark Child of War." *** Nomad's eyes glistened with delight, watching those endless clusters of four pillars stood tall upon this marmoreal sea before him. Their cores blazing of and intense energetic sensation. These astral cadencies were indeed horrifying to the weak. But he wasn't included in that category, this was just a test to see how his strength had improved since the passing of the last Calamity. *** "What do you suggest we do general Ozar ?" The commander asked. "Just watch", Ozar ordered, "watch calmly and take note of every detail within this conflict. We must know how powerful our enemy is." *** Those moans rose from the cores of those clusters of pillars. Those stellar reverberations made the foundations of this astral plain tremble and those lightning flashes heralded the coming of these astral lifeforms. From the s

PHASE ONE His eyes opened to find himself floating in this sphere containing a blue of fluid. Staring around trying to make out his surroundings, Kied realized that his sense of sight was still blurred. "There's no problem with that", he thought, "I can still go back to sleep then." Closing his eyes, Kied drifted back to sleep. Still he could hear those voices, although he wasn't awake, he knew the persons speaking. "I saw him open his eyes just now", the female voice said. "Why didn't I notice it ?" The other voice said. "How can you see clearly through the liquid he's sleeping in ?" The female voice answered. "I thought you weren't bothered about him, why are you making a fuss all of a sudden." Even in his sleep Kied's teeth gritted themselves, these two siblings were so annoying, and the funny part was, their names started with the same letter, making it sound like the name of some fashion brand whenever they're called together, "JAMES AND JUDITH".

PHASE ONE "Then who could he be ?", Ozar mused. "We can't hold back any longer", the commander warned, "else, our ships could get destroyed and the campaign will come to an end." "I already thought about that", Ozar affirmed, "then let's step it up a bit." *** Nomad watched the battleships of this army's vanguard fall back, he had anticipated something like this. Smiling to himself, he just wondered, what the hell were they about to bring forth. "What makes you so bold to stand in our way celestial being ?!" Nomad's grin widened, telepathy ! Someone must be there that has a significant amount of power, this was going to be interesting. "What makes you stand in the way of the APEX COSMA ?!" The voice questioned again. "Because I fell like it", Nomad replied. "I respect the fact that you are a powerful being like us", the voice continued, "so I'd advise you step out of our way if you don't want to get crushed." "What if I still refuse", Nomad challenged

"But did he ask for it ? Did he ask to be born this way ? Before he left do you know what he said to me ? "I wish I wasn't born mother, I don't want to live", that was what he had told me." "Listen Era", the male voice said, "his destiny is to achieve the unthinkable, it is that void, the realm of the unknown, a dimension of flesh and thought that drives the normal and average insane. Era, Kied can't be normal, your son can't be like others, he was destined for something else, something that even I can't understand." "But this socalled destiny is driving him insane."

PHASE ONE "Gora" THE FATHER sighed. "He made the choice himself", Levir recalled, "his arrogance will be his downfall." "What was he thinking ?", The Father played with his beard as he sat on his throne, "even with the liberation of the DARK LORD, Kied's power's may seem to have weakened, but in reality, they are going out of control." "His EMBRYO is reacting to the reemergence of his antithesis", Levir said. "The bad part about this is that, being out of control", the Father clenched his fist, "is being without control." *** An armour used by the dark child of war during the CARNAGE OF GODS, this armour was the subterranean form of Hypernox's being. An armour who's only cause for existence was destruction and chaos, there was only one thing that could stop it's apocalyptic march and it was the ... *** "What makes you so afraid now vermin", Kied grinned, his head tilted leftwards like a drunkard and dark eyes as ferocious as a beast, "you were warned by the

PHASE ONE "I told you Levir", the being said, "that we'll one day break free from the bondage of the CELESTIAL MACE." "And just as the FATHER said", Levir replied, "we finally broke free." "These realms before us", the being in a purple garment walked to the flower vase on the pedestal at the side of this hallway, plucking a petal, he squeezed it in his palm which ignited itself into flames, "shall burn for the glory of VERECA." *** Claws and chains entangled themselves as these two beings raged and raved, their chaotic battle of enflamed madness making the earth shiver and quake beneath the destructive might of their powers. They were gods at war, the very cause of it all becoming more vague with each passing moment. "Why hold back child of war", Gora challenged, "it won't do you any good if you silence the beast in you." "Shut up vermin !" Kied sent the chains flying at its neck.

PHASE ONE "Hasn't this story gotten boring lately." "It sure has." "From the first generation, we should be expecting something better than this." "Why not spice it up a bit ?" "A bit ?" The man sighed, "I'm pushing things to the limit." *** Kied's eyes blackened as he felt those sensations run down his spine, he could feel it, he could feel them calling him, it wasn't Hade Norx Zex this time, it was them, who were they ? "Show yourself !" Kied yelled. Looking around, he realized that he was stuck in this desolate realm of darkness, a darkness that was so dense that he couldn't even see his palms. "Your life", that voice called, "your very existence, is the birth of chaos itself." "Who are you ?" Kied called. "Me ? Who am I ?" The voice intoned. "This isn't the first time you've spoken to me." Kied accused, "so tell me", he yelled, "who the hell are you !" "Are you ready to know ?" The voice questioned, "Are you ready to know the answer ? Are

His motion burned its way through distance and time, his sword and mace clashing with scores and at the same time sending scores falling dead, he seared his way through the enemy's ranks, that wall of halos and flames heralding him from behind burnt down the battleships, stellar tankers and battlecarpets of the foe. It was a surge of flames and steel and the barrage of armour and clanging shields rose to the peaks of skies of this asteroid, but he was beyond the limits of the present time. The vision of the atmosphere burnt its way through his armour, unveiling his face it revealed those burning eyes. Vision retracted as his swinging sword clanged, clashing with another foe, swirling around, he struck his opponent with his mace on the chest, sending him flying like a pebble int the air and crashing like a meteorite upon the earth. Bolting through the distance, his fluttering scarlet cape embroidered with the emblem of a six horned bull, cascaded like a waterfall of flames from h
