The days blended together in a blur of sweat, pain, and exhaustion. Lilliana's training sessions were relentless, pushing the group to their limits and beyond. They stumbled from one exercise to the next, their bodies screaming in protest.

There was no respite, no time to catch their breath. The training was incessant, draining their energy and their spirits. They barely had time to eat, let alone sleep. Their nights were spent collapsed on their beds, their minds numb and their bodies aching.

The group's fatigue was palpable, their movements slow and labored. Their eyes were sunken, their skin pale and clammy. They looked like they were walking dead, their spirits crushed by the relentless training.

But Lilliana showed no mercy, her demands growing more extreme with each passing day. She drove them harder, pushing them to their breaking points. The group stumbled, fell, and struggled to get back up, their bodies screaming in agony.

The group trudged into the training grounds, their e

They surrounded him, their taunts and jibes escalating into physical threats. Storm tried to reason with them, but they were beyond reason."Hey, Storm, you think you're tough, don't you?" one of the bullies smirk. "You think you can take on all of us?"Storm sighed, his eyes fixed on the ground. "I don't want to fight you guys. I just want to go home."But the bully wouldn't back off. "Oh, you're scared?

    The boy's eyes widened in shock as Storm recognized him, his gaze frozen on the young warrior. For a moment, they stared at each other, the tension between them palpable. Then, the Magebreaker's expression changed, his eyes narrowing as he sheathed his weapon."Follow me, Storm," he said, his voice firm but measured. "Or I'll take you back by force. The choice is yours."Storm's mind raced as he hesitated, weighing his options. He knew the Magebreaker was sent to capture him, and it wouldn't stop until its mission was complete. He couldn't fight it, not yet, not when he was still reeling from their last encounter.The Magebreaker's eyes seemed to bore into his soul, as if sensing his fear. "You know I'm stronger than you, Storm," he said, his voice dripping with confidence. "You can't escape me, but I'm willing to make a deal with you."Storm's curiosity piqued, he raised an eyebrow. "What kind of deal?"The Magebreaker smiled, a cold, calculated smile. "I'll spare your life, and the

    Storm's eyes widened in disbelief as the Archon’s words hung in the air. "You want me to help you find something in the academy grounds?" he repeated, his voice laced with skepticism.The Archon nodded, his expression serious. "Yes, I need your help to find the Power Orb."Storm's confusion deepened. "The Power Orb? What's that?"The Archon’s smile was enigmatic. "you don't know about it? Well, that's not surprising. Few people do, but trust me, Storm, this Orb is crucial to our quest."Storm's eyes widened as the Archon and the Magebreaker exchanged a knowing glance. "The Power Orb," the Archon began, "is a relic of great significance. It has the ability to... make cookies appear out of thin air."Storm's skepticism was evident, but the Magebreaker nodded in agreement. "Yes, Storm, it's true. The Orb's power is boundless. Imagine being able to summon an endless supply of fresh-baked cookies, whenever and wherever you desire."Storm's face contorted in confusion, but the Archon's word

    Storm's feet moved swiftly through the academy's corridors, his heart racing with anticipation. He had finally found a chance to search for the book, and he wasn't going to let it slip away. Lilliana's absence had provided the perfect opportunity, and he wasn't going to waste it.As he entered the Library, the musty scent of old books enveloped him, and the soft murmur of pages turning filled the air. Storm's eyes scanned the shelves, his gaze lingering on the titles as he searched for the one he needed. The others had been surprised by his sudden interest in the Library, but Storm had brushed off their questions with a hasty excuse. He knew they wouldn't understand, not yet.As Storm and his friends walked towards the Library, their conversation turned to their plans for the day."Hey, Storm, what are you up to today?" Aria asked, her curiosity piqued.Storm hesitated, unsure how much to reveal. "Oh, just going to do some reading," he said casually."Reading?" Lucy raised an eyebrow.

    As Storm's friends gathered around him, their curiosity was palpable. "What's so special about this book, Storm?" Erika asked, her eyes fixed on the black leather-bound volume.Storm hesitated, unsure how much to reveal. But his friends' eager faces convinced him to share his discovery. "It's about the Power Orb," he said, his voice barely above a whisper.Their eyes widened as they leaned in closer, their faces illuminated by the soft glow of the Library's lanterns. "The Power Orb?" Lucy repeated, her voice full of wonder.As they began to read, their gasps and whispers filled the air. The book described the Orb's incredible powers, its ability to grant the user almost infinite magic, and its capacity to open the gates between Realms. The friends' eyes grew wider with each passing page, their minds reeling with the implications."This is impossible," Tana breathed, her eyes fixed on a passage describing the Orb's ability to control the gates. "No object can have that much power."But

    Storm's friends stared at him in disbelief, their minds racing with questions. "Where did you hear about the Power Orb?" Erika asked, her voice laced with skepticism.Storm's mind raced as he concocted a lie. "I overheard some people talking about it when I was heading home," he said, trying to sound casual. "They mentioned that they were searching for the Power Orb."The group exchanged confused glances. "But why were you looking it up in the school library?" Lyra asked, her brow furrowed.Storm's lie grew thicker. "They said that the Orb was hidden somewhere in the school, and they wanted to use it to gain power." He paused, trying to appear nervous. "I was nearly caught eavesdropping, so I had to run away. That's why I came to the library to learn more about it."His friends looked at each other, seemingly convinced by Storm's tale. "Wow, that's crazy," Erika said, her eyes wide with excitement. "Do you think they're still looking for it?"Storm shrugged, trying to appear nonchalan

    “What should we do now?” Keith asked, his eyes widening. He was terrified but he didn’t want the others to see.“Well, it’s not like we can tell Mr. Bradley,” Kave pointed out, reasoning that it wasn’t a good idea as Storm had suspected him on several occasions.“Say something, Storm!” Tana shrieked. She had been scared upon hearing about the orb and how powerful it was.She couldn’t understand why they were all so calm and why Storm looked unbothered.“Look, Tana, you’re not the only one scared so quit acting like a baby!” Lucy yelled, having had enough of Tana’s tantrums.She had been quiet, patiently thinking but Tana was making everyone worried, just like she always does.“What?” She turned sharply to glance at her sister. “What did you just say? A baby?”The others, even though they didn’t say anything, they were equally fed up with Tana. She seemed to be freaked out about everything.“Look! Guys! Let’s just calm down!” Storm yelled in a bid to calm them all. He knew that Tana wa

    “ What are you going to do to me?” Derek asked. He glared at Storm who didn't seem to care about the way he looked at him.“Derek, King of hell. You are hereby banished for the three realms. You would live in exile for the rest of your life. You are forever immortal and no matter what you do, you would never die. Birds would feed on you, you would never find peace no matter what you do.” Derek laughed maniacally after he spoke. As Storm turned to leave, Derek yelled, “I hope you die just like your parents did.” Storm paused at the door and only glanced at him before he left.Walking out of the palace, he noticed that everywhere was quiet, except for the hoots of owls. Storm didn't waste much time and closed the gate to the three realms. The gate to the three realms was a portal of unimaginable power and complexity, he quickly shut the portal, severing the connection between the three realms that had caused so much chaos. The air around the gate shimmered with a lot of energy. The atm

    “What are you waiting for?” Immediately, he heard the voice, he turned and looked at Storm in shock, not knowing what to say. Derek stared at Storm speechless, he was supposed to be dead. At that moment, Storm was more like a celestial being. All his injuries had been healed, and he was looking like a newly transformed person. The transformation was so astonishing that it left him speechless, his mind raced as he stared at Storm. How was this possible? He should be dead? Derek quickly glanced at Storm's right hand and noticed it was intact, he looked around him but still saw the severed hand beside him. How was that possible? This shouldn't be happening. It wasn't a part of his plans, everything he had learnt about the Orb didn't have to do with this. Could it being a dead person back to life?Storm stood there, looking strong and his body glowed as bright as the orb. His once tattered clothes were now different , better than before and his skin had no injury on it. The contrast betw

    Storm laid down on the ground and thought about everything. Not just his own end, but the end of everything he fought for, everything he believed in. He had promised to save the world, to change everything back and now he was about to give up.He could hear the echoes of his own words, the promises he made to his friends and Lillian. "I will fix everything," he said, with all the conviction of a man who thought he could change everything immediately he entered the other realm. But fate, it seems, has a sense of humor. Derek had told him he was supposed to die at the end, he didn't believe him at first but here he was lying on the floor on the verge of dying.Storm remembered the faces of his friends. He could remember their smile, Keith's smirk he always seemed to have on, Lucy's perfect eyebrows she always raised when she was angry, Ella's warm smile and Kade’s perfect smile. Their eyes had been filled with trust and high hopes and it haunted him now. They had believed in him, and

    Seeing the figure standing up again, Storm's heart beat faster. He couldn't beat Derek without the Orb but he needed to fight him before getting the Orb. The pressure he felt from him was enormous, a suffocating weight that pinned him to the spot. He could barely move, his muscles strained against an invisible force. His heart pounded in his chest, each beat echoing like a drum in his ears. The air around him seemed to thicken, making it hard to breathe. He knew he had no other choice but to fight, yet every fiber of his bones screamed at him to run.“You know, no one has ever tried to fight me but you tried, I'll give you that. Even my daughter couldn't beat me, what made you think you could?” Derek laughed loudly his voice reverberating against the walls.“You are a horrible person. A horrible father, a horrible ruler!” Storm yelled.“Oh, I know that. I am sure my daughter told you about our history. I never wanted a daughter but I got unlucky, I need someone strong, powerful bu

    Storm immediately smirked at the Magebreaker. He was definitely going to kill him now after he heard everything the Magebreaker had said. The memory of their last encounter flashed vividly in his mind. “Beforenyou get to use the Orb, I would end you myself.” Storm sneered, his voice dripping with hatred and anger. “Last time, you selead my powers, now we have a score to settle.”Magebreaker’s eyes narrowed, a flicker of anger crossing his face. “You think you can defeat me , Storm? I would end you before you even lay a finger on me.” he retorted, his voice a low growl. The tension between them crackled like electricity in the air.Without another word, the two lunged at each other, their movements a blur of speed and power. Storm's hands immediately found his sword as he swung it towards Magebreaker who swiftly dodged to the side, his own hands glowing with a dark energy. He unleashed a torrent of electricity towards Storm who dodged.Storm’s smirk widened as he saw Magebreaker’s atte

    Just as Storm was about to move forward, he heard a loud voice welcoming him with laughter, echoing through the dimly lit chamber. "Welcome, Storm! Feel at home!" the voice boomed, reverberating off the whole place. Storm's heart skipped a beat. He paused, squinting into the shadows, trying to pinpoint the source of the voice. "That must be Lillian's father," he muttered under his breath, his muscles tensed as he took a defensive stance. He knew he had to stay on his guard. The voice had an eerie, almost mocking quality, and he couldn't afford to let his guard down for a second. He scanned his surroundings, every nerve on edge, his senses heightened.Without caring about anything else, he rushed towards the direction where he had felt the Orb. His pulse quickened as he neared it, the air growing colder and heavier with each step. The chamber seemed to stretch endlessly, shadows dancing on the walls like malevolent spirits. His breath came in short, sharp bursts, the anticipation gnaw

    But much to his shock, he was not attacked. Rather, everywhere was calm, making him frown. Still, he walked forward, his steps echoing in the eerie silence of the grand hall. Stepping into the palace, he felt a sense of warmth overcome him, as though he had just arrived home, and this made him anxious. The warmth was unexpected, he hadn't felt this warmth in a long time. The last time he felt this warm was at the garden when the Orb was still there and this thought unsettled him deeply. He had expected more creatures, resistance, a fight, or at the very least, Mage breaker or the King of hell. Storm thought about the King of hell and what he would look like. He wondered why he didn't have a better name instead of the King of hell, he also thought about the Magebreaker. Where they working together? Storm wasn't sure but he hadn't seen the Magebreaker since and he definitely knew he had to fight the Magebreaker too. Storm looked around still expecting creatures to come out of anywhere

    Three days later, a disorganized Storm stood at the edge of the forest, his eyes fixed on a huge palace in the distance. The palace didn't look anything like the realm, it looked too perfect, not a single thing missing from it, its grand spires piercing the sky, and its massive walls adorned with intricate carvings and ceiling to floor windows. The surrounding area was like a garden, it had beautiful flowers surrounding it with winding paths leading up to the palace gates. Even though Storm was disheveled and looking wretched, his clothes torn and dirt-streaked, there was a fire in his eyes, an undeniable energy coursing through his veins. His life over the past three days took a toll on him but his determination hadn't changed.As he stood there, catching his breath, he couldn't help but think about everything he had been through and what he had endured. The forest around him was alive with the sounds of chirping birds and rustling leaves, a stark contrast to the violence he had face

    Just as Lillian left, Storm sighed and began his journey, heading directly to the palace. He looked around the realm and sighed again, he thought about all that he would have to fight before getting to the palace. Storm looked around and only noticed the hooting owls sitting on dead trees. They stared at him wide-eyed as he passed, this made his skin crawl. He stared at the tall mountains that seemed to mock him. He knew the palace would be on the other side of the mountain and this made him even more worried, he would have to fight a lot of creatures before getting there. Storm thought about all his friends, he had to do this for them. His thoughts shifted to his family, why did they keep a book about the orb in the library if they didn't want anyone to find it? Storm had never met his parents, they died when he was only a child so he didn't have any memories of them, just his grandfather. His grandfather had always told him he was stronger than he thought, he never believed him but
