Project Kied - the Dark Child of War Chapter 10
FIFTEEN MONTHS EARLIER ... His feet were numb and his being quivered in pain as he made his way across this mountainous terrain, he was worn out and his mind's focus was waning, but he just couldn't stop. The turbulence arose from behind him, and those exploding sounds made the earth quake. Trying to quicken his pace - a futile effort though - he managed to keep going, his heart pounding in his chest. That halo fell behind him a few yards away, ducking behind a boulder he allowed the explosion blow past, then rising onto his feet again, he continued the run. Another volley fell from behind, with solid structure to take cover with, the explosion swept him off his feet sending him crashing to ear. His dark armour now worn and torn, he stripped it off, now left with only a dark pair of clothes, having done this he resumed his run. Those interstellar chariots, five in all, emerged from behind, they chased after him. Knowing that he had been spotted, he forced himself onwards.

Henry sat in the second chair after the school bus' door, his head resting on the wound up window. He saw his "rival" approaching, better still, marching, and that nosy boy running after her from behind. She leapt into the bus, her gaze met his then turned to his seat, she growled, walking away she took her seat at the back of the bus. Then came the boy who scuffled into the bus, pausing he stared at Judith and back at Henry. "Now I get it !" He exclaimed, the furious look on Judith's face making him grin mischievously. He took his seat beside Henry. "Hello, I'm James," he began, smiling at Henry who just stared outside through the window. "You really broke the record today, beating the best student in Physics - who happens to be my sister - to the number one spot, teaching old Sam to not be naughty, and sitting in your rival's favorite chair. You're not only taking her title, you're also taking her brother and her seat, guess what you'll be taking next ?" James paused, Henry

Sitting down at that table, this family of four dug into their dinner. "There's a new family in the neighborhood," Mrs John said, her knife cutting through her beef. "When did they move in ?" Mr john asked.. "About a week ago," the woman replied. "Oh, you mean Mr and Mrs Kayode," James interrupted, a mischievous smile stealing his face as he stared at Judith. "You know them ?" James'father asked surprised. "Yes I do," James replied with an air of importance, "they even have a boy called Henry." "Mhm", sounded his mother, "what school does he attend ?" "Our school", James revealed, "he's even in the same class with Judith and me." "So he's your classmate isn't that right Judith ?" Their father tagged. She ate on silently not wanting to reply, seething inwardly at how stupid her brother could be at times. What did James think he was trying to prove? That she ... Oh ! She couldn't even say the word, a five foot three boy with a five foot eight girl, what a h

Vage Verzak stared at this imperial army from the bow of his interstellar battleship - the Talon. Their flags fluttering dauntlessly, prepared to unleash an assault upon his paradimensional cosmic arcade, how they had found it wasn't his concern, what mattered to Vage was making them regret ever battling with him. "Calk Xan never gets tired of fooling around with his meaningless schemes of taking me down," Vage said to Rode - his red panther lying besides him. Rode purred, his paw covering his yawning jaws. "I can see that you're getting bored with teaching a dumb feudal lord the same lessons over and over again. It could be annoying Rode, but it's worth being termed as a light workout." Rode purred excitedly as he rose on all fours. "Now let's see what card Calk Xan is going to dole out first", Vage said combing his beard with his fingers, "unlike him, I am a noble fighter and always play fair, giving my opponent the opportunity to choose his cards wisely." Rode gr

That howling arose as that storm cleared the battlefield of anything which stood in its way, engulfing the terrain in a sea of lightning and flames. "He thought his Storm wiped out my defensive wall of tentacles Rode", Vage said, "not knowing that I had to call for retreat using the explosion to mask the whole scheme." Rode gave an approving growl, his golden eyes glistening with anticipation to battle. Calk's fists tightened, he still couldn't understand how Vage had been able to take down his army of cosmic beasts with just one shot from that cannon, it unleashed the destructive energy it possessed, courtesy of the cosmic arcade. "Vage !" Calk growled. "Cosmic beasts !" Sending his entire army of cosmic beasts charging towards Vage's ship, Calk stood in fury and anticipation, anxious to see the Talon blow up into pieces. This wasn't the first encounter he had had with Vage, and Calk knew about his cosmic beast Rode - that annoying pet of his. He always wondered how

That flaring hologram of geometric configurations enacted themselves before him, creating multiple combinations, they switched the positions of different structures, a unique code and configuration was finally attained. It's intense flaring created a sea of flames within the cosmic skies, eight cosmic portals tore open with enflamed and titanic chains crashing upon Rode's being, they entangled themselves around him , inhibiting him from fighting. "That's what happens when you have the Eight Doors of People", Calk said to himself, "and this is just one among its numerous capabilities. I don't see how Vage's precious cosmic beast, Rode can break free from it." Vage's enflamed eyes closed, he could feel the pain which Rode was undergoing as the enflamed waves which the chains gave bore their burning sensations into his being, along with the entire army of Calk's cosmic beasts falling upon him from all corners, keeping Rode completely under check.

Why had Vage not made any move ? Instead he stood there grinning stupidly at him. If Vage wanted to kill him, Calk thought, then he should better get it over with and fast, then he saw Vage lift his right arm into the air. "Rode", Vage communed telepathically, "that'll do, I think Calk has had enough." But Rode was persistent, he wanted to take his pound of flesh, and his paws kept crashing upon the shield. What was wrong with this creature ? Calk shivered. Rode finally stopped, his paws resting on the shield as he growled furiously. He had been denied something which he desperately wanted, but Vage was his master and he didn't have any choice but to obey. Letting go, Rode turned around and walked away, but like a torn tendon, he spun around and struck again, charging at the shield his paws landed like halos making it quake without giving way for the infuriated beast to go through. Calk's heart leapt to his throat due to Rode's sudden reaction, now

A hood concealing his face, his metallic boots clanged with the armoured floor of his battleship as he walked towards the edge of the Mace. Trident by his side, Thorace surveyed the entire terrain if the battlefield. The grand mountains blazed like monuments underneath the rays of the twelve suns, along with the menancing look of the battleships surrounding him, Thorace could see that he had been cornered, but that didn't mean he had been caught, instead, it gave him the opportunity to make the conflict even more interesting, and the way the tables were about to turn would be dramatic. "I can feel it", Trident said taking in the air, "the heat of battle." "You read my mind Trident", Thorace remarked, "I'm really anxious to get in the zone." Staring at the battlecarpets above him, five in all, they were the flagships of this fleet. He knew who they were, Thorace smiled, and he was as the one who had come looking for them - the real

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". But wha

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

PHASE ONE "What do you think is the matter ? What do you think is the cause ? Even as a mother, I think he has suffered enough." "I don't know why Era, I don't know why it happened this way." "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." "The heavens know why it happened this way. Many have grasped glory and fame from the universe but in the end, they never gave back, yet, they are still celebrated and idolized.

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. Gora caught the chain, tugging at it he pulled Kied towards him, but Kied sensi

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
