Prologue

third person P.O.V―Life

Life and Death clash weapons again and again trying to find a weakness in the others technique. They have spent decades upon decades honing their skills for this one fight. Two will enter and only one will exit. The war will be decided by this one battle.

There were two people one dressed in all white, the other in all black. The one dressed in white, his name was Life he represented the rebirth of civilization and the humanity in humans. While the one dressed in black he is Death; he represented all of the death and inner evil of humans. Life's weapon of choice is a double bladed three and a half foot long metal sword that is made of imperial gold, titanium, celestial bronze, and Olympian silver. That glowed with a bright white light; and when you are around it it gives you a feeling of comfort and courage if you are an ally, but if you are an enemy your heart is gripped with fear and despair. Death wields twin 1 and ¾ long pitch black blades that are made from Stygian iron and they can join at the grip to form Death's trademark scythe. It gives off the feeling of fear to all even his allies.

Death slashed at Life with one of his swords and he narrowly avoided the shot as he blocked the other with his sword. He tries to get some distance by teleporting away but when he reappears Death is there slashing with his scythe.

Death says "You aren't getting away that easily." as life blocks the slash and created a crater 20 feet wide.

Life just gnashes his teeth together and grunts from the impact of the hit.

"Whats the matter giving me the silent treatment isn't going to do anything to help your situation. You know if you bet and plead to me I might give you a quick and merciful death."

"You know what, you can take that quick and merciful death and shove it." Life says.

When Death hears this he gets angry and starts attacking wildly and unpredictably.

Life sees this and smiles as he begins to block and dodge the attacks and manages to get quite a few hits in on Death; after about ten minutes of that death collapses out of pain, blood loss, and exhaustion.

Life levels his blade at deaths neck and asks "Do you yield?"

Death responds "Do you think I yield? You cant kill me I am death itself."

"True but you can be detained for the time being."

"What! you cant do that to me. I am your master, I am your lord." as two minor gods drag him to a specially made cell just for him.

"This was a long war." Life says to he fellow defender: Peace.

"I know maybe we can finally have some peace." says Peace.

"I hope so; I want to retire." life responds.

Peace looks at him with a knowing expression and says "You think he will be back?"

"Yeah I do; but not now he is too weak he couldn't get the others with him he will try again in a millennium or two. When he is back at full strength, when the guards have gotten careless."

"But life can't we do something about it; cant we stop it from happening?"

"No, we cant stop it from happening the only thing we can do is pass on our legacy to others; because we... we …... we cant stop him once he is free again not then, and certainly not when he has the others with him."

"Fine, but I will only retire when you say it is time to; but in the mean time I am going to go keep track of our prisoner."

"Go, we have some time about one thousand years before he starts to enact his plan to bring about the end of the world."

"I sure am going to miss this place when we retire."

"Don't worry my friend. We will be back, we will be back."

"I know but I will still miss it I wonder if they will keep my house clean for when we come back?"

"My friend," Life grips his friend on the shoulder. "the way you keep your house you will be lucky if you can see the floor when we get back even if it is in patches."

"I know but a man can hope can't he?"

"yes I a man can but you have to remember you are no man."

"but my dear friend you must remember I will be one soon."

"touche, now I thought you were going to go and check up on the prisoner?"

"oh yeah right I totally forgot about that!"

"and Peace spread the word to the other defenders that we need to retire soon."
