While she was out on a rampage,
Beneath the ground, Draven was alive, barely hanging by a thread. Lower limbs blown to bits, with blue glints, with charred red skin; covered in burns from head to toes, without an once of hair.
A rotting smell speard though his premature grave. His fingers quivered; desperately hugged the spatial pouch, tight to his chest.
A green figure walked back and forth in his mind space, he muttered "Why? Why did you do this?"
"How can you be so reckless? This is your damn body!" He said, staring down at his lifeless host.
Endless pain in his lungs, coughed his eyes open. "Aah! Oh! Ah!" He struggled to raise his dismembered body.
Vernon shouted "Don't move, Idiot! Your body is down to ten percent!"
Draven said inbetween his cough. "Why didn't you do anything?"
Vernon said "I can't! I am bound to my host's will. I can't do anything without your permission"
His charred face darkened to a deeper
Becky pressed a nub on her knuckle and her body camouflaged to the surroundings. She strolled into the enemy camp with light steps. And with a smirk, she passed the dimwits armed with rifles in their palms, vigilantly patrolling the area. She flipped her bag to her chest, rummaged out a black box, codes flashed through her eyes and the box swished open. A blue overglow lighted her face, as tiny, mechanical flies flew into her palm. She whispered a command and blew them to the air. Following her command, they buzzed and attached themselves to the enemies’ clothes. She whispered "Ten, nine, eight, seven, six... three, two, one!” *Boom* One by one, the flies puffed red and exploded, incinerating them to hell. The smoke cleared, with piles of ashes on the ground they stood. She chuckled, as her feet kicked their ashes with a forward strut. *Thud* A muscular laned before her, within the dust cloud his eyes gleamed red, locking on to his tar
Other side,The rhino charged with a glowing tusk, the sabretooth spit ice and spread on the ground. The rhino skedded forward. Ice lengthened his claws; it glistened a dangerous light. The rhino slammed his head down and shattered the ice. His body shimmered gold, an energy ball formed between his tusks and whipped his head forward, tossing the energy attack.The sabretooth jumped to the side, and countered spitting fire. Zeno tongue slithered, giving silent commands to his beast. Trusting his master, the rhino charged straight in the fire, his body glowed, activating the martial arts of the Brazenton family and wacked it's tusks. In the middle of spitting fire, his pupils widened, saw images in his tiny head, he froze. The man yelled "Dodge!"But fell on tranced ears, his tusks clashed against his jaws, sending his to the trees. He flew and crashed, through the piles of trees.After wating for a while it breathed its last breath, the man's t
*Beep* *Beep* Silver bracelet flashed; neon words orbited before her eyes. Her posture stiffened; a shaky loop side grin builds on her stern expression as the ditzy surprise sinks in. She blurted "He is alive" Zeno paused in his steps and glanced over his shoulder. His face scrunched in bewilderment. "Huh? Alive? Who is alive?" His annoying voice bounced off her ears, gladness flicked back to her usual gaze, as cold, and as bleak as a gravestone. He leaped forward; his hair stood in fright. "Okay! I get it! No, questions!" He stuttered and scurried to show the way. While Becky kicked the dirt, with a complicated expression. 'Since he is with my other half? What should I do now?' 'Rush back?' She shook her head, dismissing the thought of revealing her guarded secret. An idea popped into her mind, she pressed her com on and quickly typed a message. 'I think she will take good care of him!' She thought, wal
After his well-played plan, they flew and perched themselves on the tallest tree their eyes could find. Waking up to their rough handling, his enervated eyes flickered. Jeff groaned "what do you want?" his hands absently moved to his side pocket. Catching his movement, Twin wings quickly held him down and unarmed him of his tiny gadgets and jabbed a pen shaped cylinder to his neck. Draven towered over him with a cocky grin and tapped his cheeks "Hehe, just like I said. Remember" "Like you said?" his pupils enlarged, as realization dawned on him "You mean you weren't kidding about the slave?" Draven lowered himself, as the sun shimmered his jay-blues. Stared straight into his eyes, he whispered. "I never kid!" "Why you..." bitter expression distorted Jeff’s face, choking his words in anguish. "No worries, I always treat my slaves well!" Draven nonchalantly said, like it was the most natural thing, which stemmed from his clan’s dea
She turned off the jetpack, and while she fell, she clicked her arm bracelet and phased through the ceiling. Landing on a squat, just before Becky. The moment she rose to her feet, Becky tossed her magazine away, and hugged Twin wings. Her half. At the same time, they both said "What took you so long?" "Why did you not do a thorough check?" Becky giggled. "I don't know how I messed up. The scanner showed no signs of life after he triggered the mine" "I thought he died" her eyes glassed with sadness. Twin wings crunched her forehead in disapproval “Why are you so emotional over our target? He is just a filthy man!" "No, he is not... He has some good qualities" she softly spoke, yet contained an extraordinary amount of certainty. Or was it something deeper. Twin wings thought 'He is sharp. But still, no one is more amazing than Master' Twin wings countered "Really? Well, I think he is just a pervert!" "No, he isn'
Draven stood, knees fixed to the ground. Becky silently watched; a smile stretched her face. Soon, it diminished with complex emotions. Envy, bitterness and soon happiness settled; mushing her heart. She thought 'Yes, he is chasing me, not her!' Waiting for hours on the treetop, her impression of him, changed. For her heart truly softened by this resoluteness of his actions. 'How can he patiently wait for so long... He must be hungry!' just a she concluded; the grumble of his tummy echoed in the serenity of the forest. She sniffled her chuckle within her hands. She twisted her bangle and turned invisible. Draven turned his gaze to a nearby tree. ‘Huh? Maybe, it was just my imagination’ he thought. As his patience ran thin, he still pressed on. "Becky!! Becky! Please, come out! I’m really sorry! What can I do to make it up for you?" He shouted "I will do anything?" His words fell on deaf ears. Twin wings played games on her tablet
"Zeno! Where are you?" Draven shouted, searching the nearby tree. "Zeno! Zeno! Come out!" Becky shouted between her hands. Her nerves became more prominent in frustration. She whined "Baby, how long should we search for that wimp?" "A little longer" "Fine" she grunted; she dragged her feet further out. An hour later, "Zeno! Come out, you freaking bastard!" She wearily shouted. She sat on a rock, thought 'Hmm, why does the forest feel so empty? Where are the beasts??' She pressed her come on, and started texting her other half for help. Her face darkened, gnawed her teeth "Why aren't you replying?" and texted. *Ting* "Finally!" She flipped open her com’s tab. While reading the message, her eyebrows twitched; she slammed her fist against the tree "What does she mean by 'she won't help'?" "That bitch! Doesn't she know that I am the original?" She punched a crack on the rock.
Spoon repeatedly clashed against the bowl, Draven watched on, as Zeno eagerly scooped the soup into his mouth, and twirling the remaining noodles around his spoon and chewed. Zeno sighed, laid back on the truck, with a loop-side grin, smacking his lips. "Man, that was delicious!" Leaning against the stump, Draven said "Glad, you liked it!" Zeno stabbed the meat and the delectable meat melted in his mouth; his eyes turned into crescents. He released a soft moan. Slowly he forked another piece into his mouth and quietly chewed until there was none. "Again! Even this is good!" "Good. You must be joking?" Draven chuckled. "It obliviously has to be more than good!" "Yeah." Zeno said, the atmosphere became stiff with silence. Draven smirked; Zeno turned to sound of approaching footsteps. Becky smiled, waving a pack of neon blue card "Do you guys wanna play? I am bored!" Zeno said "Sure, I am up for a good game" and ri
"Those bastards" swiftly he paced himself forward, fluttering his lab coat with a fierce air. The operators paused their work and made way for him while the supervisor and the captain argued. Luis stood before them with a stern face. "Ahem" He turned to Luis with a wry smile, said. "Ah, Professor" "What are you two doing? Get back to your duties. I will handle this," Luis said, and stepped in front of the controls. "Yes." The supervisor pecked his head like a hen as he retreated. "Capt. Davis, activate the defence mechanism, A-103 and code P456" "Yes, Sir" Capt. Davis said. He pulled a slide from control panel and twisted it before he punched it in. A teal light beamed around the borders. "Defence activated" While on the outside, a transparent membrane shot from thefrontof ship and converged to the end, pushing the nearby rocks away. Luis hands typed codes on screen and slammed
On a funnel of space and light creates a wondrous image, as millions and millions of extra-terrestrial bodies compete, pushing themselves past the obscurity of the distance and the darkness of the space. In a void, a silver blimp flashed through the cluster of rocks. Cannons on the sides rotated and fired. Thousands of rays converged and struck the ginormous space rock. It exploded into thousands of fragments.The ship heaved itself through the cloud of dust, particles ticketed against the surface, drumming on the screen of glass. He tilted his head back, dishevelling his golden hair against the glass as his body spasmed into a chuckle. "Hehe, that was a good one. " A finger flicked the photo across the holographic screen to the next one. Pride refracted in his jay-blues while he appraised the moment. He hummed in remembrance. A crystal cup lifted above his head, sparking brilliance between him and his team, while a girl kissed his cheek under the rain of confetti.A p
Draven honestly said. “I do want to enter one of the Big Five but I am not sure on which one”“Then I can help you” Luis cleared his throat and tossed a cube in Draven’s direction. The cube rolled and morphed into a comfy couch. He signalled for him to take a seat. Draven silently settled himself on the couch and listened.“Each of the Big five have their own speciality, like Luturian Alchemy Academy, which focuses on Alchemy. Sure, there are many alchemy-based universities, but what they lack is the quality of professors, lectures, or the ability to gain resources. Which will be used to nurture their seedlings and naturally bring them fame and reputation across the universe”“Entrium University is known as the number one on white paper because they normally recruit the children of the elite and have the backing of many high-net-worth individuals and families”“So, it is a playground of snotty br
Reading the announcement, the viewers blinked and suddenly bursted into cheers, holographic fireworks exploded in the air.Alight appearedinthe dugout, Osbornestood before them with a weak smile. "I did it!"His teammatesturned aroundand pounced,hisheadwent ditsyand Osborne fell on the bench. Dowsing their mood with a bucket of cold water. Coach said. "Guys, give him some space, he is just beat""But sir??"Coach assured them with a smile. "Don't worry, he is okay. He just needs time to recover by the time we have to go and claim the cup!""YAAYY!"Chad tugged his jacket, said "Sir, aren't you forgetting the group picture?""Oh, yeah..." Coach said, stumped by his situation, he pondered and said. "Maybe, Draven will be fine!""Yes, come one let go see Draven!!" Chad shouted, and like a mob the students pushed Coach along with them.
Draven asked."Anyway, do you guys know who won the match?""Nope, we rushed here as soon you got teleported out! I was worried something happened to you again!" Becky said."What do you mean again?" Amelia asked, clueless about the previous events since Abby didn't inform them of his situation."Its nothing" Becky shook her head."So, the match is going on?"Amelia said. "I think, before I left, Osborne was fighting that McFerreen guy."Rushed footsteps echoed within the halls. Draven shifted his gaze to the door. Arkon entered with a howl. "Hello, son!" while his family followed behind with big smiles. "Oh, my baby," a woman in an elaborate dress exclaimed and moved past her children all the way to his bed."Hi, Dad. Mom?
Next second later,light flashed,couple of bodies fell onto the bed. Emergency lights flicked around the room. Draven blinked, staring at the ceiling with one thought. "Did I win? Or did I lose?" He shifted his head to the side, the door swung open, as a team of nurses and doctors approached the beds. Draven was about to speak, a nurse said. "Doctor, this patient is in a critical condition." "Hmm" the doctor turned from Draven's bed and headed to the bed in the corner. They huddled around, examining the patient. "Doctor, a weird infection seems to be spreading over from his external wounds. I think he is poisoned." Grim expression, the doctor ran a hand scanner down his body."Bythe metrics
"Just do it," Draven shouted. They hesitated before they clicked forfeit. A light befell and teleported them out."Now let's fight!" Pablo flexed his gamma muscles and his feet launched himself forward with a powerful shock wave, adding cracks to the ice.In a blink of an eyes, he shot from one point with an outstretched fist. Draven dropped to a roll. A leg flew to Draven's face. Fire rocketed his soles to the sky. He swayed his sword and shot beams of energy.Pablo sprung into the air, the rays deflected off his chest and from his eyes; he shot gamma rays.Draven tilted his body away and countered with a freeze ray. Draven thought. 'I need to figure out a way to defeat him without contaminating myself.'Draven asked. "Vernon. Does life force absorption work on radio
Fire swirled around his legs, Draven stepped forward, leavingtrailsof puddles in his path. Pablo slowly picked himself. Draven stood over him, said."Pablo, face it you are finished!""I am finished?"Pablo snickeredwhilehe bendedto pick his axe and said. "How can you say I am finished when I haven't even played my next card?"Draven's eyebrows lifted in alertness, "What?" and stepped back.Poison radiated from his pores, his armour melted down to his legs, glowing a radioactive light.A sudden dread hit his core. Draven stepped back and lifted a hand to his face. Pablo radiated a blinding light. He laughed with head back, "Time for you see my full strength!"Draven ran away and shouted, "Osborne, retreat! Retreat!"&
Reaching the end of the berg, the horses neighed and jumped across the large stretch of water and continued galloping. Their bands beeped as they got closer to the Hellhound's location.Seeing figures far in the distance, Pablo grinned and drew out his axe. The others followed and drew out their weapons."Let's rush to victory!"The horses jumped across and their hooves sank in the snow. Controlling their powers, the horses galloped above the snowy water. Suddenly, ice beams sprung from the ground and struck few of them, triggering the safety system and teleported them out, leaving the rest out of formation.A beam sprung before him, Pablo reined it back, the horse lifted itself to a stop; fluttering his fur cape. Pablo signalled them to spread out, a freezing ray shot straight to him. Pablo jumped off
