The Val'kyr Era

Chapter 1: Prologue

I'm pretty sure most of us have always wanted to go to space as children. Whatever lies outside is actually beautiful. It would be fascinating. But at a time like this, you'd pretty much want to high-tail it outta there...

Jupiter

BOOM!

It was heard all over the planet as seven figures tried to take cover. The being was too powerful. Six of them were adorned in battle clothes and armor.

The seventh one seemed to be their leader. In contrast to their gray cloaks, his were pitch black. His armor was bladed and was complete with an intimidating greatsword.

They were all hooded and wore m

asks that only exposed their eyes. Each of them wielded a different weapon.

"Any ideas?" asked a grey-eyed girl with bladed armor and two daggers.

"We have no other choice," the man stated as he sheathed his sword. "We have to evacuate."

"Bullshit! I'm killing that thing!" another brown-eyed man who wielded a different sword.

"What! Are you nuts?!" asked a rather short pink-eyed girl who wielded a battle-ax.

"I know what I said and if we don't do it, she'll get us for sure!" he retorted.

"At this point, fighting her is fruitless. We don't stand a chance," said an ice blue-eyed woman who had a war-hammer.

"Valaxir listen," spat a sapphire-eyed woman holding a glaive, "You either come with us and stay alive or walk yourself into a grave!"

For a moment besides the magical mayhem, was silence. Valaxir looked at each of the warriors with disgust. Some brown magic formed on his back which turned into hawk-like wings that were as black as night.

"Of course, I always forget that my colleagues are just cowards."

He immediately flew off, raising his sword above him in anger as he approached the intensely glowing humanoid.

There was a burst of light and neither of them were to be seen.

"We-We warned him. He's...gone." a young man with orange eyes, bladed armor and a scythe said sorrowfully.

"Let's just go back." the leader instructed stoically. "We'll have to tell everyone the news. The Grand Lord won't be happy about this."

He and the other two bladed warriors left immediately. The three remaining warriors looked back at where Valaxir used to be. Each with hurt looks in their eyes.

Especially the sapphire-eyed woman.
