Prologue
"Hurry! Before the evil king took the gemstone!" a war cry shouted by a commander.
At the time of war, between the good and the evil, between order and chaos, between the light and the dark. A vicious force, made of dark energy, are searching for a gemstone that made by light and polished by the energy of time; a gemstone that can remake the future and the past; a gemstone that contain an infinite amount of energy to control destiny. That gemstone is named by the folklore by the name of chronostein. A particularly not like a common jadestone or gemstone. Whomever grabs it and took it, the gemstone grants any wishes with only a blink of an eye without any words out from his/her mouth.
Forces of light, in the name of order, tries to protect the chronostein from the hands of wrongdoers.
Amidst of war, many lives have gone, the light force do not want to retreat before their eyes are forced to close by the enemies.
"Surrender! There is no chance for you to win this war!" taunt the general of darkness.
"Like hell! My forces will sound the horn of victory over your dead body!" the commander of light refuses to surrender. He stood by his feet, controlled by winning energy. He pointed his sword towards the general.
"Hmph, you sure want to know how hell looks like! I will send you right away! Hyaahh!"
The fight continues.
However, the light forces are depleting its number. Their mages are retreating; no healing and energy barrier to protect them. Their long-ranger are blinded, cannot lock any target. They have reached their depression.
"Doctor?!" A girl worried about someone called doctor in front of her.
"I do not see any victory from my calculations. I have one only option left to make!"
The Doctor is the battle strategist for the light forces. He controls the formation of the fight. He stands behind The Shield to give comms to the other heroes.
"Stay close to me! Cassandra!"
"Doctor! Look!" Cassandra shocked as the shield warrior that the whole time protecting them is defeated. The big man falls in the hand of the enemy.
"Hello! Doctor. Aren't have we met somewhere?" a succubus appears standing above the dead body of the shield.
"ALICE!" The Doctor uses his weapon, a big pitchfork that launches electromagnetic pulses in a shape of a ball.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!" Alice flies with laughter. Circling them in the skies with an army of bats.
Cassandra, the girl who doctor mentioned earlier still do not have any clue about what the doctor one and only option left. As she fights the army of darkness with her power as a mage; yet she still worried about the doctor who fight Alice alone.
"Doctor! I'm coming to help!" she tries to get closer to the doctor.
"NO! Don't!"
"It's too late! Watch your back, doctor!" Alice appears behind the doctor and immediately sucking his energy and all he has. Cassandra took an action as she throws a beam of energy towards Alice; releasing her from absorbing the doctor power. Alice bounced but she has her stand to continue the fight. Doctor has no energy left, his feet could not bear his body. He stumbled before Cassandra.
"Listen, Cassandra! We will lose, there is no hope in this war!"
"We can still fight, doc! I will fight Alice!" she determined to fight Alice.
"No! You can't win against her. She's too strong. I told you to listen to me. I have made a device, I hide it from the commander." he shows the device to Cassandra. It has box-shaped, a little bit bigger than a Rubik's cube, it has a circle in its middle, while the design looks like connected to some sort of lines. "I will use this, to restore the war."
"What do you mean?" she a little bit confused.
"I will put this Skypeia as the source of the energy of this device to be able fully functioned. But remember, it will only be working once!"
As the chatter continues, Alice launches another attack towards them. A horde of bat surrounding them; blinded them from seeing their environment. Alice flies directly in a high-speed dive. In a hurry, the doctor inserts the Skypeia—a stone-like material furnished with blueish color—to the middle of the device.
"I will send you to another time. But, there is a chance in that time, there is no me, the doctor you know from you were kid. You will lose majority of your memory." The doctor grabs his pitchfork wand and create a barrier to protect them from Alice.
"No, doctor! I won't leave you." Tears drop from Cassandra eyes.
"It's the only way. You have to correct my mistakes; my calculation!"
"NO! I will fight Alice! I will fight the darkness! And I will bring victory for the Land of Dawn!" She stays determined, fiery eyes wiped out all her tears. She stood by the doctor, strong legs and glowing aura that ready to fight anyone and anytime. As she tries to move towards Alice, the doctor creates a barrier that blocks Cassandra's movement.
"I'm sorry, Cassandra." The doctor activates the devices and throws it towards the barrier. He moves the barrier where Cassandra locked with the devices far from him. Cassandra cries, the doctor dies, falls to the hand of that succubus named Alice.
"NOOOOOOOO!" She sees her love died in front of her eyes. Shocked; pain stabs deep inside Cassandra's heart; piercing like a bullet. The device blows up, releasing its beam that absorbing Cassandra as she sent into another time; another dimension. She was sent by the doctor with only one message: correct his mistakes. What mistakes? What calculation that waits her in before-time. She has no clue, she has shredded memories. She will barely remember everything, except one thing; war is coming.
