I have Lomadia. Come mend the world. Livid.
Just when we thought we could relax. We'd been through hell and back TWICE and still we had to fight. I guess I should summarize it for you. Basically, around 6 years ago is when this all first started. I, Sjin, had to 'save the world' from my tainted friends. Didn't come out of that amazing – me and Xephos, a spaceman, ended up in a coma. Skip 5 years and we wake up to taint having spread much more wildly and rapidly than before. We set off on a journey to find our lovers, and friends, which inevitably turned into another 'saving the world' mission. It felt harder than the first time. Much more brutal, apart from...never mind. So now, a few months after the second 'mission' has finished, I live happily with my lover, Lalna. A scientist unlike any other. He's kind, caring, helpful...I could go on. But, I'll continue with my summary. Anyway, Xephos, the spaceman I mentioned before, came to us after he received a warning note from Livid – Lalna's twisted and evil dark side that now has his own form in the taint. So, us three and Rythian, the Enderborn – basically a human/Enderman hybrid – decided to set out to find Lomadia, Xephos' true love. Of course we couldn't leave Nilesy out of this, as he was there when Lomadia was taken. Honestly, I think we would try and kill Livid even if he didn't have our friend. We all wanted our revenge on him; in one way or another. Will we get it though? Well, even I don't know that yet.
"I'm so going to kill that bastard when we find him!" The four of us listened to Nilesy's 'opinion' as we sat in the sunlight. We decided to retrieve Nilesy before going on this new 'adventure', but I think some of us were regretting it. We would need all the help we could get, however, so it wasn't the worst decision. It would only be for a while, too. I glanced at Lalna, who was tinkering with his jetpack. I think it was running low on fuel, hydrogen, so he was just refilling it. Xephos was pacing nervously; every moment we weren't travelling was a moment Lomadia was in danger. It was true, but we couldn't just rush out. Meanwhile, Rythian and I were trying to come up with some kind of plan. Being immune, mostly, Rythian was an important person to have. He could protect us from it, and teleport around it. But, apart from that, we didn't really know what we could do. We thought up of a few scenarios, some containing that Livid would use Lomadia against us by shielding himself with her or something to that extent. That would render any plan useless, pretty much. I stood up, becoming tired of thinking of plans.
"Yes, Nilesy, ok." I held my head, feeling a headache forming. Just what I needed. "Anyway, why are we planning so much anyway? We never plan this much, and it usually goes fine." I shrugged. "Look, let's just go and attack the fucker." I added. They could all tell I was getting stressed and annoyed. I only usually swore if I was annoyed. Lalna landed beside me, taking my hand. Just touching his skin calmed me down.
"Ok. Then let's go." He smiled. "I mean, it's sometimes better to not have a plan. Then you can't be predicted." He explained. The others agreed, even though Rythian was a bit hesitant. I just couldn't take any more of this planning – I just wanted to act. I'd become a lot less patience recently. On edge, maybe. Before we departed, Rythian took me away from the others. He had that look in his eyes – one where he had a bad feeling about something.
"Look, it'll be ok, Rythian. Lomadia will be fine." I insisted. "We'll make sure she isn't hurt or anything." He shook his head, glancing at the others for a moment.
"That's not what I'm concerned about." He said in a hushed manner. "It's...you." Rythian's eyes met mine, and something felt...different. Like I knew him more. "You see...I'm not really sure whether the Ender essence wore off in you." He began. I raised an eyebrow in confusion. "Basically...I think you're still part Ender." I blinked. "I don't really know how it's possible. You should've gone back to normal now. Maybe it's because you had taint within you, maybe it's because you're just different, I don't know. But you have the same powers as I do." I have...his powers? "You can teleport, you can use Ender powers, and you're resistant to the taint now." I looked away. That can't be right.
"How is that...possible?" I asked.
"As I said, I don't know. But...I think there's more to it." Rythian continued. "I think...you have powers no other Ender being has. I'm...not quite sure what they are yet, either, but I'll try." He took my wrist, making sure he had my attention. "You shouldn't be possible. A being of three beings. It shouldn't exist." Three beings...Livid mentioned that. "But you do, and you have the power of each one. The taint, the End and Minecraftian. You CAN'T tell anyone else. Not even Lalna. Don't tell him that you still have the Ender power in you." His voice was like a hiss, which is probably what scared me the most. Not the fact that I'm three different things, or shouldn't exist. The way the Enderborn spoke made it clear how dangerous I was. Or how dangerous I could be. "Promise me, Sjin." I nodded. He then left me, and Lalna flew over. He landed beside me, blinking.
"What was that about?"
"Eh, nothing. He was just saying whether it was good or not to go in without a plan." I replied as nonchalantly as I could. It seemed to work, as Lalna just laughed.
"Rythian's always been a cautious guy. It's good to see some things don't change." He pointed out. "So, you ready to go?" I nodded, as our fingers intertwined. We'll take down Livid together.
A/N: The third part. Yay. Sorry if it starts out a little slow/boring. It shouldn't too much (apart from this prologue) so it should be ok xD I have a plot planned out (kind of) so yay again. I've even thought of an ending. But let's just see whether it goes that way or not. I will introduce new characters/bring back some old ones. I've even got an OC I'm adding in. So, cool. Enjoy~
