The dark guardian

KAI LOGAN

Ates instantly returned it seemed that he had regretted going to that absurd battle which was good news. All this time that he had worried about me, I had kept a special affection for him and although at the beginning we were enemies, I no longer saw him like that.

"What made you come here again?" I asked when I saw that his eyes were pointing out.

—I didn't come because I was afraid to go to fight but because your life I feel that you are in danger, I think they have discovered my hiding place—instantly the light in the room turned off abruptly—it's Marck—he took you in his arms—that power that I feel can only come from him.

—but who the hell is Marck?— I separated from him, it was true that I had lost my powers but not my courage, I didn't like people to tease me now.

is a faithful dog of Karius —right away the door was made into a thousand pieces, a curtain of smoke enveloped us, taking away our vision for the moment and a small smile could be heard approaching.

— It's time for you to surrender, Ates, it's impossible for you to be able to against all of us, it's better that you do things in a good way, but if you don't want to do it that way, then we'll do it mine and we both know that I can be very cruel— he threatened, he had a seed dress like an ordinary person, if I had my powers in an instant I would have torn him to pieces.

—I'll never do it and I won't give you the boy either—he stood in front of me .

you want that , that 's fine, you leave me no choice but to use this." He took out of his pocket a doll similar to plastic, it seemed harmless, he threw it to the ground and it began to believe more and more until it became a big monster, from it came out a kind of small spheres, these floated in the air.

Instantly Ates also summoned his fire monster, a fight was about to start and I was just getting in the way as usual.

The two monsters started the fight, but the monster that had launched that guy had the ability to release those spheres at high speed, they looked like a burst of bullets, I could see how they were embedded throughout the walls, definitely this time my life was running danger. I wanted to get into the fight so badly, but I knew it would just give Ates a job.

—Attack—Marck ordered his monster, it released more of those spheres and all of them impacted the body of Ates's monster, he complained of pain, it seems that what happened to the monster also happened to his body.

—come this way—Ates pointed to an exit—it's the opportunity for you to get out of here, but immediately the monster crossed us, I don't know how or when I had the courage to attack him knowing that he was just an ordinary human .

I took a metal tube and hit him making him even more angry, for which he gave me an attack that catapulted me towards the wall.

"Are you okay?" Ates came to my aid.

Instantly the monster attacked again with its spheres at high speed, but this time Ates gave me a push that made the spheres hit him and not me . I didn't know why they're risking themselves like that, but don't ask me to meet. Arms crossed this time.

"Don't do anything to the boy, he is very important for the operation we have in mind with the boss" Mark spoke to the monster and apparently he could also speak.

—Then you tell me that I can do what I want with this guy—he pointed to the body of Ates lying on the ground after having dealt him several blows all over his body.

"That's right," Marck said without any concern.

—Perfect—the spheres pointed towards Ates's head, in just moments it would kill him. I ran as fast as I could, things seemed slow Yam at that moment I could see when those spheres were coming faster and faster, I managed to cover Ates's body and instantly I saw how they all stopped in their tracks—it's not fair that that boy has intervened —the monster had complained.— this was for little.

— Yes , but they are orders from the boss and orders are orders—said Marck approaching.

JAMES

—I'm sure two Volts have just passed by here, one I think is the guy we met last time, the one with a fire monster, but the other I still don't know who he is—Billy was taking us to the location of Kai, I just hoped that he was right and that we hadn't walked in vain.

—I hope you're not wrong—Mike was behind, as well as Astrid and Katsuro .

Soon Billy ran even faster, took one street and then took another and so on.

"Are you crazy or what?" We all ran after him , we didn't even know where he would take us.

—Shut up, they don't let me concentrate enough—he stopped in his tracks in front of a building that was in poor condition, as always now the custom is that if I looked at a building in poor condition it had to be related to these Volt.— It 's there— pointed at a top floor.

We climbed hastily, step after step we climbed but the desire to save our friend was much greater than any tiredness that he could experience at that moment. We arrived at the top of the building, there were traces that there was a fight before.

—Look at this—Astrid pointed to a huge hole in the ground—I don't think Ates did it, his monster is made of fire and these marks aren't the ones he makes —Astrid was right, I had realized what shots I was learning this time a little more to deduce things, I think the situation is dangerous are the ones that have opened that sense.

—He was definitely here— Katsuro had the bandage on his head that Kai had—but where would they go? This has a lot of being here, so I deduce that they should not be very long, let's say.

MEANWHILE IN THE CENTRAL DIMENSION.

MASKED WOLF.

We were gathered in the main room, this was the room where important meetings with our leader Ragnar always take place, we were all Dark , but at the head of the group was Kaskade and Rubios, apparently they had something to tell us.

—he lamented the small interruption of calling everyone here , I know that normally these meetings are held by our leader Ragnar, but Kaskade and I have something to tell him, the situation on earth is turning very bad, we all know that we have sent some of our vigilantes, but we don't know the magnitude of the problem because in the first list we don't even know who those guys called Volt are, the only information we had about them was in the Kaskade laboratory , but now that we entered the database there is a message that it is blocked and that information will soon cease to exist—explained Rubius

"That's right," snapped Kaskade , "we have a damn treacherous among us who has entered my laboratory to try to erase that information that will be very useful to us, so whoever it was, I order him to step forward and I will kill him with my own hands." .

's not necessary— Eubis tried to calm him down—you're talking in front of Dark like you and me.

"And what does he have?" Don't you remember that we were betrayed recently too? This is a guarantee of nothing, I see everyone here as suspicious — Kaskade was enraged.

Deep down I knew that things were not going well and more so on earth, but soon we would realize that this was the case.

—I think I found the mansion we were looking for, according to the Page it says that a millionaire lives, but nobody knows him yet, I think it's the best hiding place if it were the guy who kidnapped Kai—we were looking for more clues than Kai was taken to us and he had found this mysterious mansion that we had to go to.

ATTES

—I hope you have your lesson this time— Roshi threw me into a maximum security room—you're a stupid Ates, I don't know what you have in your head trying to save the guy who will lead us to glory, but do you know what — he smiled —this Maybe I don't think Karius will have mercy on you.

—I'm not asking for it in case you didn't know—I spat in his face, so this was the trigger for him to start hurting me, I was tied up and couldn't for a long time to say.

—You seem very vulnerable now that you don't have the ability to form your stupid fire doll, I've had you so much ear for a long time—he stalks my face—the only thing that saves you from not being able to kill you is that you are the boss's darling , but if you continue in the way you have been behaving these last few days, I don't think your luck will continue to rule. See you later idiot—he closed the door.

Now I had to find a way to remove these ties and go out and look for Kai before something happened to him, I didn't want to have a dirty conscience that while I could have done something I didn't.

I got up again, but in the room there wasn't even a window and there wasn't any light that could enter, but I wasn't one to give up easily.

JAMES

"So this is the mansion that you talked about so much, Astrid?" We arrived in a very stealthy group, we were all behind trees.

"It's definitely too big," Mike glanced inside, "his gardens are so big and full of flowers."

—That's right, but without a doubt Kai is here—assured Billy—I can feel his presence, we have to find a way to get in without them noticing.

"Okay ," I agreed , " if that's the case, then we have to split up," I suggested, hoping everything would turn out well. If my calculations did not fail , of course.

KAI LOGAN

"Leave me alone , stupid ." I refused the food that Roshi had brought me, I was a prisoner in a huge mansion and I could hear the voices of different people.

—don't be an ungrateful dog, you should feel lucky that I'm treating you like this, many have come here and don't last a second under my hands, but the boss has plans with you so behave accordingly.

—I don't have to, I don't trust you and much less do I have to show respect towards someone who is my enemy.

—as you wish—he took the plate giving it a spoonful—of what you're missing red.

A short time later I saw some guys coming out of a room, I guess those were Karius 's henchmen or even he could be among them , but I had no idea who he was either, I had never had the opportunity to see his face or I don't see either to Ates. I just hope it's okay at least, this is all my fault, first with my friends and now with Ates, I think I'm an object of bad luck.

—but who do we have here—a subject was approaching—but he is my guest of honor Kai Logan—he sat in front of me , he was wearing a black robe, it completely covered his body, he had fangs and red eyes, even in the dark room you could see the intensity.

"Who the hell are you ?" I glared at him, it was the only thing I could do because my hands and feet were tied, otherwise I would have hit him.

—My name is Karius , nice to meet you—I cross one leg over the other—I'm sorry my men aren't treating you very well, but now that I'm seeing you I think we're very similar, I was even thinking of giving you a pretty juicy deal I don't think you want to refuse.

"What do you mean?" I wanted to know, looking at him from head to toe, he didn't inspire any confidence in me.

—Well, you know very well that I need your soul and your powers to enter the underworld and make me a god, but without your powers I couldn't do it.

"But how will you do that if I no longer have powers?" It was a very logical question. "I am no longer of any use to you."

-here comes the interesting dear friend, I know that you are the only descendant of your father and that your soul is unique, I promise that if you join me I will see you as a friend and not as an enemy. Apart from that I also promise that I will return your powers, what do you think?

"But I just told you that that's not possible, I lost them a long time ago." I looked down, it was the truth, I didn't know how I would do something like that.

—There is a solution for that, I will find a way to reactivate them. There must be something in your body that is holding it back, we Volt are a very intelligent species and if you join us you will have a lot of power and a lot of wealth, we can take care of you.

—Although your offer sounds very good, I must tell you that I don't intend to betray my people, I have my own convictions and who I have to follow, I don't eat you.

—Well, as you say, but there is still a lot of time so you better think things through and when you decide we can talk very well, now just enjoy the place, this is your home—he raised his arms showing me the spacious room and then left.

What a difficult situation I was in, hearing that my powers could be returned to me was something that undoubtedly encouraged me, but the price I would have to pay was very expensive and I do not characterize myself as a traitor. There must be a way to escape from this place without them noticing, more around me and there were windows, but from what I see they were sealed, there were also many subjects hanging around the mansion. It would be an impossible mission.

—Come on, come here—a guy took me by the arm, taking me to a very luxurious room — you'll stay here all this time. If you try to do something crazy, I promise you that our boss will not forgive you and will send you a real cell.

—But what ways to attend to a king —I looked inside— Karius must be very kind to take this trouble.

—I'm not for your stupid sarcasm, but what I can tell you about my boss is that he is good, but he also has his bad side, please don't play with that, take it as a small warning.

"How scary..." He closed the door in a bad way.

I hope the boys are fine, but knowing him is how they are, they are most likely on their way here, especially the stubborn James. I just hope this all ends for good and I won't be a burden to them anymore .

Mike

—It's strange that we had planned to go to the mansion but now that we're in the courtyard we can't find it, don't you think it's strange, Astrid?— We walked in the garden and the only thing we looked at was bushes and more bushes. It seemed that we were walking in circles.

—I was wondering the same thing, I'm sure the road was this way, but now I feel like we're lost, we must look for the others—she looked everywhere again.

—Then come, follow me, this time I will be the one to guide you where you will be on the road.

JAMES

"Hey Katsuro , are you alright?" He had stopped dead and seemed to be in a trance state .

—I am, but I feel that something is watching us, money that he is disorienting us, in case you haven't noticed we are walking in the same corridors of this mansion since we entered—partly he was right and I hadn't noticed.

"What do you think it is?" I held up my hands in peace.

Immediately we turned our necks and a round device similar to a camera was floating in the air, but the strange thing is that it seemed to have a life of its own.

—Take this— Katsuro hit him with a ball of fire—What is this? —He took it with his hands inspecting his body, but instantly more than one room came out.—We have to go—immediately we ran at high speed and more came out of those flying objects.

—We have to go there—he pointed and there was a more or less large wooden door. We entered and closed very quickly. —That was very close—my breathing was tired, but Yam Jenny saw that we had arrived at a quite elegant room, with very fine paintings and furniture.—That place looks quite strange, don't you think?— we began to walk and in front of us there was a huge staircase that divided into two.

—Welcome everyone—I listened as if on the second floor of the room where we were—I didn't know they would come so soon looking for their friend, but don't worry, we are taking care of him very well here, I think he would levitate to stay much longer here if I'm not mistaken.

He still couldn't see their faces, but if his fearsome voice, I immediately heard some steps that came down each step, the sound of the heel of his shoes was heard very clearly. Until at the end of everything a subject was shown that assimilated sight looked very strong, at that moment he dedicated that he was the famous Karius , the characteristics that had been said about him coincided perfectly.

—I like having more guests in my mansion—he showed his fangs like a true vampire of souls—if you are Kai's friends we will also serve you as appropriate, especially you—he pointed at me—James—he began to laugh like a madman.

Deep down I was a little scared because there were so many of us and there were only two of us and I didn't know how he knew my name either.
