Prologue

"This is not good." said Clockwork to himself as he flew over the decimated realm that was the Ghost Zone. "The human world looks exactly the same, my fears were true." No ghost was around as if they were gone; Walker's prison was destroyed as well as Pariah's Keep, Aragon's Kingdom and the damage continue. Doors and portals also ruined beyond recognition. The whole zone was devastated and Clockwork worries only increase with each location he checked.

As he progressed through the Ghost Zone the violet cloaked ghost was attacked by a dark ghost ray that sent him flying to one of the floating wastelands of the zone.

"Damn." He thought with pain. "I was to focused that I didn't see that coming, but considering my powers I should…" then it clicked "I can't be"

The time master looked up only to see his fear became a reality.

"So it's you." he said to the dark figure that looked down on him.

"It's been a while my friend." the formless figure greeted the Clockwork.

"When you say a while you mean since the dawn of time right?" he responded with a smile on his face, almost as he was teasing him.

"Hahaha you were always the funny one Clockwork."

"I take it you are the responsible of this?" a question he knew the answer.

"You like it?" as he extended its dark arms, happy of his achievement.

Clockwork wiped the dust of his robe as he slowly took his staff. His red eyes never leaving the sight of the figure now in front of him.

"I'm not that much of a fan of post-apocalyptic scenarios" he replied bluntly.

"Well you will come to love it when you became a part of it." Again its dark arm extended now with a dark orb prepared to be fired. As soon as the orb approached Clockwork he raised his staff.

"Time out!" time stopped but the master of time knew that against this foe his powers were not that effective. "I only got little time, what an irony" he laughs to himself. As clock like portal appeared behind him he disappeared.


Clockwork returned to his clock tower in the Ghost zone but as soon as he returned he was greeted by two familiar ghosts. The Observants.

"I was worse than I imagined" he began "and that's only 1 year into the future!" he exclaimed to them.

"You know our oath Clockwork, we can only watch. We cannot interfere with the flow of time and events. What happens will come to past." They finished both at the same time.

With rage he said to them. "That's the problem with you Observants... all you do, is observe." As he prepared to fly once again the Observants spoke once more.

"There are consequences if you decide to hamper with the flow of events." They reminded him.

He turns around. "I know. I created them. But I also know that rules were made to break them." With a grin he flew off to his destination: the human world.
