It was just another day, nothing out of the unusual, Alora was milling around the

kitchen cooking breakfast, Melina was playing outside in the nearby forest and jack was

sitting in the living room, reading a book. Jack was bored, he had really never enjoyed

reading so he closed the book and put on the coffee table jack stood and then it hit him

jack looked wide eyed at the ceiling 'Ch^en, impossible but it has to be I would know

that feeling anywhere it feels like he is already on earth' jack thought.

"What's the matter honey?" jack turned his face towards the speaker and saw

Alora.

Jack looked back at the door "Alora," he said calmly "go and bring Melina back

here, I got some business to attend to" and inn his minds eye he was thinking 'Ch^en

must pay for what he did to me and my people' jack remembered that day like it was

yesterday though it had happened over four thousand years ago.

Ch^en arrived on Afolia and began destroying things and jacks mother had gone

out to meet him after telling jack to stay where he was. But jack was never an obedient

child, he followed her and saw Ch^en fight her. During his fight with jacks mom,

Victoria, Ch^en used an attack that he called Homicide, it sent a beam of energy out of

his hand, killing everyone on the planet except jack and his mom. Then Ch^en killed her

and proceeded to send a beam into the planets core. Then Ch^en left. Jack had found his

mothers ring and it had granted him one wish and jack had wished for immortality so he

would have as much time as he want to hunt Ch^en down and the ring had taken

possession of jacks body for a little over four thousand years and in that time jack had

caused countless deaths and destroyed hundreds of planets. Ch^en had to pay.

Jack walked out the door and took off. Jack flew over the landscape at amazing

speeds, it didn't take long for him to reach the source of the power and to jacks surprise

he found no Ch^en, only a small round object and a cliff face that had some drawings on

it that looked remotely like a round door and three hollowed out areas. Jack picked up the

round object and crushed it, a small red gem fell out of it and flew over to the cliff face

and inserted itself into one of the hollows. This made jack worry because Ch^en's power

didn't disappear when he destroyed the object it only changed location. It changed its

location to jack's house. Jack swung round and shot like a bullet towards home ' please

let me be in time, please' he pleaded with any deity who happened to be listening 'please

let them be safe.'

Jack arrived back at home in time to see the glowing red ball of deadly energy

crash into his house, he hear one high pitched scream and then there was a bright light

and all that remained was rubble.

Jack looked on in stunned horror at what once was his house. Thoughts and

emotions filled jacks head faster than jack could rid himself of them. One thought

tumbled in and shattered any composure that jack had at that time, Alora and Melina

were both in the house when this had occurred.

Jack flew down and landed amid the burning rubble. There was no sign of life

anywhere around it and the sickly sweet smell of burned flesh hung about the place. Jack

bent forward and madly began tossing pieces of debris, deep down in his heart jack knew

that this was folly but even if there was an off chance of saving even one of them jack

would take it. Jagged bits of rock, wood and glass tore at jack's unprotected hands. His

blood flowed freely from the jagged gashes that they left and soaked jacks hands in

blood; anything he touched was stained red. After a while of this scavenging jack

removed a piece of broken rafter to reveal Alora's bloody face.

Jack rocked back on the balls of his feet and covered his face with his hands; the

sight was too much for him to bear. Tears came, staining and cleaning him at the same

time. He dragged his hands down to rest at his side his whole face smeared with blood

and tears. He cleared more debris off of her but only got to her waist where he found out

that she had been severed in half by a large piece of rubble, but that hadn't been the real

reason for him stopping. The real reason was a little arm protruding out of a pile of rubble

he stopped the excavation of his wife and rushed over to it, he began to dig with every

piece he threw the smell of burned flesh became stronger. Finally he moved a piece of

debris that used to be a part of the roof and the stench became unbearable. There she lay,

she had no hair left, and half her face was missing jack could see some of her skull and

what lay under the skin the other half was browned and peeling off, her eyes were also

gone leaving the blackened empty sockets behind most of her clothes were mostly burned

away showing the peeling brackish brown of her ruined skin beneath, blood covered

every thing nearby. Jack turned round and vomited in disgust while tears of pain rolled

down his face to drip on to his ruined hands causing them to burn in pain because of salt

in his tears.

Jack stumbled out of the wreckage of his home and tripped over something. Jack

looked back after he regained his balance it was his sword from his destroyer days, a

hand and a half double bladed straight edged sword of ancient making with runes running

up the side of it reading simply "Lunefear". He reached down and hefted it up to hook it

across his back. He walked a short distance away and began to sense for Ch^en it didn't

take jack long to find him he was back at the place Jack first went to look for him. Jack

floated off the ground and flew to Ch^en. There he stood, tail wagging absentmindedly,

and his back turned to Jack.

"I was wondering how long it would take you to find me, jack," he said as he

turned a very evil grin on his face, his eyes narrowed "my, my you have grown. How

long has it been jack three, four thousand years?" he asked keeping the grin on his face

"It has been four thousand two hundred and eighty two years, thirty days three

hours twenty minutes and fifty nine seconds, monster" jack shot back power already

starting to crackle around him "that is just too long for you to have gotten with every

thing you've done, you end here." Jack spat.

"Well," said Ch^en in surprise "such bold words from an Afolian, I wouldn't

think it possible and one that has been keeping count of the seconds before he dies too!

This must end, it is unbecoming of your race!" drawled on Ch^en in a majestic voice, "at

this rate you'll end up dead fast, just like the rest of your kind and family" Ch^en said

with an evil grin

"You son of a bitch!" yelled jack "not one life will go unavanged, NOT ONE!"

jack began to power up, he had never been so angry and he had a secret weapon that

Ch^en didn't know about, his ultra stages. Jack ascended through the levels until he

reached his max the ninth level of legendary Afolian. Jack flew at Ch^en screaming and

drawing his sword about half way to Ch^en. Jack went for a slash to Ch^en's head and it

went through it but not causing any damage. Jack backed off a bit the then came in with

lightning fast blow from his sword aimed all over Ch^en's body they all just went though

him and still caused no damage jack went back five feet. "What the hell? He can't

possibly move that fast can he?" jack questioned him self, looking at Ch^en with deep

hatred and surprise.

"Yes, Afolian bug, I can move that fast tell me how do you plan to beat me if you

cant even see me move?" asked Ch^en with a superior grin on his face. Then before jack

even knew the Ch^en had moved, Ch^en planted his fist in jacks face jack flew back but

did a back flip and regained his control ch^en's tail neatly wrapped it's self around Jacks

neck and lifted him up. Jack was now face to face with Ch^en whom grinned and kneed

jack in the groin jack grunted in pain, blood spuwing from his mouth. Ch^en then began

taking his right fist and placing it in jack's chest over and over with each hit blood

spurted out of jack like some grotesque fountain. Ch^en lay jack on the ground and

kicked him like a football into the middle of the drawing of the round door all three gems

were now there. Five horseshoe shaped blasts trapped jack where he was, Ch^en walked

slowly over to jacks broken body until he was face to face, Ch^en put the evil grin on.

"What are you waiting for?" jack asked meekly "kill me already, you monster!"

Ch^en frowned and said, "you have failed your people, your family and most of all you

have failed yourself, I can do no more. Except maybe you would like to see me kill every

one on this planet" Ch^en said with an evil tinkle in his eye. He grinned and floated up

jack faintly noticed that clouds had formed above them but as jack watched a small circle

of radiant golden light slowly got bigger and bigger jack could not look away, it was just

to beautiful a voice came from it but it wasn't a voice, it spoke directly to his mind

"Jack, you have been chosen" it was a powerful voice and jack was about the ask

it to explain when it did "you have been chosen to carry the fate stone of this plane, your

father didn't know he carried it ether but it has passed to you. You do not know your own

strength jack; you can beat him with my help. Jack awaken to your true power!" it said

forcefully and a golden beam split the clouds and smashed into jack. Jack arched his back

in pain as his muscles augmented to incredible size and his eyes and hair went platinum.

Jack wrenched his limbs out of the rock jack flew up to Ch^en after retrieving Lunefear

Ch^en was to busy gloating to notice jack held Lunefear high over his head "Lunefear

strike!" he yelled hundreds of little lightning bolt crackled along the blade jack rushed at

Ch^en. Ch^en had just enough time to turn around before the sword embedded itself into

him. Much to jacks delight blood came forth from Ch^en's mouth as the grin turned into

a snarl he floated down still impaled and jack still clinging to his sword "how dare you"

said Ch^en in more of a whisper than a growl he arched his back and invisible energy

forced jack back in to the wall once only it wasn't a wall it had turned into a swirling blue

vortex jacks last vision of his home plane was Ch^en laughing evilly as the sword wound

covered itself up.
