Introduction
Listen, my friends. Let me tell you a story. A story in which reality is twisted, friends become villains, love creates hope, and legends become real. This is the story of the elementals. Heroes with extraordinary power and strength and villains with unnatural hate and corruption. Their race was prosperous and everyone was at peace. Until the prophecy was about to be fulfilled…
Seventeen billion years ago, on a planet created by unnatural power. Power beyond measure and cannot be grasped by the minds of men. There was a species, a race that lived in a world where the elements were at peace. These elements were not the simple water, earth, fire, and air. No these were beings. All were human, yet at the same time, they were not. There was Fire, Ice, Air, Earth, Dark, Light, Storm, Natural Disaster, Plant, Metal, Electric, Ghost, Psychic, Plasma, Poison, Gravity-controlling, Supersonic, Shape shifters, Undead, Life, and Chi Each element had seven elders to govern that element. The elders worried about their own issues with their own element.
Their planet, Elementium, was twenty times bigger than Earth and one year to them is one billion years on Earth. The planet was governed by two crystals, created by the power whose origin is thought to be from the planet itself. These crystals were so valuable, that gold was considered a common metal. These crystals were light and dark. Each machine at each pole. They kept the balance I power so no element may rise to power. But if the balance was tipped unnaturally, the unspeakable would happen. The world was at peace for ten thousand years.
Until now. At midday on the thirty-first day of October, there was an elder of the dark region. This elder was an experienced master of the dark power. He had studied it for thirty years craving for more power. All the others saw this as unnatural, even his fellow council. He was obsessed with unlocking the secret to tapping in to the core of the planet and creating a new definition to the word 'master.' He figured out an easier way to unlimited power: the dark crystal at the South Pole.
He organized a secret organization consisting of ninety-nine original followers with more being recruited every day. He called it the Dark Divine. He and his followers committed an illegal launch without the authorization of the entire council. He flew to the dark crystal floating over the South Pole. He and his followers went out into space and stole the crystal.
It was darker than the blackness of space and was as big as his head. He touched it with one finger and quickly pulled it back for he felt the immense power within it, so vast, he could not grasp it – literally. He then used his strongest dark fist move and slowly picked up the crystal. His power bonded with it and it was almost overwhelming. A dark force field surrounded him and it sucked in all weak light. He began to transform. He looked at his hands and saw claws form from his nails. His hands became wider and his skin turned black as if charred by fire. His arms and legs grew fur and were as wide as and as long as a grown man. His legs were the same as his arms. His face rapidly deformed with sharp teeth, pointed ears, and his eyes became blood red and glowed. Spike grew on his arms and legs. Three sets of spikes grew down his spine and spikes jutted diagonally from underneath his jaw on both sides. He yelled and screamed in pain as the transformation took place, then remained silent and still for a while after his body stopped turning. His followers however remained human but their souls were consumed by the crystal's energy and replaced them. He opened his eyes and chuckled after the crystal's dark energy settled in him.
He took the crystal back down to the planet to be under his constant control. The elders from every other element including his own were gathered at his landing zone. They told him to return the crystal and never tamper with its power or the unpredictable may happen and the world as he knew it would be destroyed him included. He refused. They threatened to kill him and take it by force but he knew that an elemental killing another elemental, elder or not, was the highest crime and resulted in siphoning of power by the criminal's respective elders and permanent banishment under pain of death or death right then and there after the siphoning of power. He refused another time and the elders charged him. He jammed his fingers into the crystal and split it in two. The dark energy exploded from the crystal and shot out in a massive wave and disintegrated the elders.
At that instant every Elemental felt such a huge disturbance that they collapsed on the ground as if they had a heart attack. The ground shook with such force no one could stand. Then it stopped. Everyone stood up looking around as like it was brand new.
Then the ground cracked sending buildings in its path down to the core. At that instant everyone knew instinctively what was happening. The balance of power was tipped so greatly that the planet was collapsing on itself. Cities were crumbling and collapsing. Land masses rose to high elevations only to fall and collapse on any unfortunate person. Volcanoes erupted ten times their normal strength and tsunamis flooded every coast up to a thousand miles inland. It was exactly how the prophecy described it:
Power is nutrition.
Billions have a need,
But one will have greed,
And with too much Power,
And at that hour
Elementals will be doomed to extinction.
The land will quake
And cities will shake
Oceans will come
Leaving only but some
To carry on the tradition of life…
People ran for ships they stored for when making space travels. They were only made for one hundred passengers each but more were packing the seats and walkway. Ships launched while buildings collapsed and mountains shrunk and the planet began splitting.
Finally as the last of the ships took off, energy was rushing to the core like a great wind, taking all in its path with it. Then it all went quiet while there was a white orb floating in space. Everyone looked at what became of their home world. Children and adults both were in tears. Then after a bit, the orb exploded sending light, heat, and energy in all directions. Thousands of ships were caught in the blast and hundreds more had parts and windows shattered, leaving them dark and lifeless. Only five hundred out of two million ships made it each going off in different directions to distant galaxies.
The demons were nowhere in sight but all knew they were alive and gathering more.
As the last ship escaped, it flew to a galaxy that some claimed looked like spilt milk from inside and headed toward an inhabited planet. It looked similar to their own but only smaller with a moon orbiting it instead of two machines. As the ship entered the atmosphere, it turned into a fireball while parts flew off and people braced themselves. It crashed in a place where the buffalo roam, the summers are hot and winters are cold.
They all got out and did a head count. Seventy-five were accounted for with twenty-three wounded. Fifteen were water, thirteen were fire, thirty were plant, seven were earth, three were air, two were electric, and five were metal.
All got out and those who couldn't were helped, and looked around. A fire Elemental and water Elemental scouted ahead for a mile and went back after seeing a road sign that said Lawrence 5.
All were in tears and felt so hopeless that their only home was destroyed completely and may not be replaced…
