This is my first story, so please be kind. Please review, so I can make the story better as I go along.
Prologue: The Gods, The Guardians, And The Destiny
The universe was created five-million years ago, by six all-powerful Gods,
making a huge supernova of gases and mineral rocks. Their names were Sheul,
Daemon, Typhera, Sephiroth, Nexus, and Deus. They created Earth as a special
creation. They wanted to see if life would become corrupt, if they gave it a free
will and the ability to think. Soon they discovered all was not perfect on their
small blue marble. Evil from the far reaches of other distance galaxies came to
cleanse the planet of its precious minerals and resources. Not to mention, the
imprisonment of the life on Earth to use as slaves. To protect the Humans, they
made a secret embodiment of the humans themselves. Hidden even from
themselves, these guardians sooner or later gather together, as if by some
unnatural force, bringing them to each other. Four fates strung together by a
small piece of thread, hanging in the balance of cosmic life and death. Hidden
away, the relics that grant the power, to control the balance of the universe.
Masks that grant the user abilities to control different aspects of Time, Death, and
Life. The Mask of Time and Space, once worn by the great Patriarch of Time,
Paradie. The Mask of Life and Death, at one time worn by Death itself, Vex. The
Mask of Elements, one time worn by the great Elemental Hero, Nyx. Finally, the
Mask of Truth and Deceit, once worn on the face of the Lord of Deceit and also
the King of Truth. There are tales of four friends: Cris, Evan, Erick, and Mark, all of them
stoners, going to a special tree, to enjoy the wonders of the sacred herb. They
would always travel to a spot in the nearby wooded area around Evan and Mark's Neighborhood. Walking down a fairly narrow dirt path, they finally start to see
the big forested dome-like set of trees they called the Tree Dome. Evan trying to drain the main vain, he accidentally falls into a sinkhole
in the ground and yells out, "HEY GUYS, I COULD USE SOME HELP,I'VE SUNK INTO A HOLE AND I DON'T THINK I CAN GET OUT"!
Erick, Cris, and Mark quickly dash to Evan's rescue. Trying to pull Evan out of the hole, all of them fall in as soon as the side collapses under all their combined
weight. Realizing their fates, Erick lets out a remark fit for the situation.
"Well, we're fucked".
