Weight Of The World

Fully Alive

Jahen should've protested when asked the question that the male being hates, he should've said no or I'm busy but no like a good brother he said I'm not busy. He should've also asked what she was doing before he agreed. So Kahen put him to work, and so did Lei. As they left Jahen caught a glimpse of his dad before he left, Torn glanced up from his work when he heard Kahen's big mouth. He noted the pain in son's face and matched it with his own pain, he felt. But the ex-Underground leader smirked at his son; maybe the forgotten days of Krizmon Graud Commander were finally coming back because he said:

"Have fun."

Bastard.

He also offered Kahen money, she cheered and took it. He also told her to help Jahen find suitable clothe for Ashelin's party that was coming up, and that she had all say in the outfit. Jahen wouldn't live through this without shoving hangers in his eyes, Torn had let him down. His own flesh and blood was giving him over to the Haven and Kras Shopping Demons Kahen & Lei, atleast Torn was forced, sometimes, to go shopping with Ashelin... then he would get is revenge.

But for now, he was forced to try on the latest boots and lipstick shades.


Seth drew random circles in the sand, when his father told him that this power was hard to control; he was lying. This power was interesting to him, the way his claws could rip through things, crave threw pure stone and slash through anything. All his senses were beyond what he thought, he could hear the smallest ant crawling through the sand, he could taste the thing he ate for dinner two days ago, he could feel each ray of the sun burn his skin, he could smell his skin burning.

He pulled out his communication unit, 2:13pm. 2 days had passed since he'd been in there, it didn't take him long to get through the cave but most of the Metal Heads didn't understand what he was. The Maneaters stayed clear, whimpering in the corner. Smart. Very smart. Seth leaned back on the rock, and looked up to the sky. It was a nice clear blue, his family must be having such a nice day. A good day. Gone for a swim? A drive? Other must be enjoying this day too.

Seth licked his right hand, the claws had gone away but the sweet taste of blood mixed with Dark Eco still remained. He smirked.

"Human flesh would be so much better to rip through," He glanced back at the Grunt claw on the ground at the entrance of the cave, the body was about a foot away with it's head twisted all the way around. "You showed me no entertainment."


Eli fiddled with something under Butterfly, when Grante started the engine it sounded funny. He couldn't find anything wrong with it but he knew better from Seth's last encounter with the Sand Shark; Grante was sitting on the hood of the car listening him swear but couldn't tell if something was actually wrong with her car. She could've checked it herself but being the guy he had too; Eli groaned and came out from under the car.

"I can't find anything wrong with it."

"So I'm stuck in Spargus?" She grumbled.

"Nah," Eli said motioning to the Dune Hopper. "I'll drive you to the Danger Zone, then you can just take the Air Ship to Kras." Grante mumbled something that he couldn't hear, she finally sighed and lowered her black sunglasses. Eli could feel her hazel eyes glaring at him as he walked away from her and towards the Dune Hopper, he wasn't angry she was pissed.

"Fine." The red head said following him to the Dune Hopper, she got in the seat next to him and held onto a bar for support. "How fast those this thing go?" Eli slammed on the gas when the doors were open, Eli shrugged as they drove towards the Forgotten City.

Back in Spargus, a Hellcat carried people between Haven and Spargus, but for people to go to Kras and Icelands they would have to drive to Forgotten City to get air lifted out on a Air Ship. A huge balloon with a cargo boxes underneath it, on top there were more boxes and a small prison for criminals the Air Ship could travel from Forgotten to Kras in under 2 hours. If you needed a faster way of getting to Kras there was the Danger Zone, a bridge that leaves from Marauder's Beach to Kras City's Port but rough seas, boats and the old bridge made it dangerous for anyone to cross.

When they came to Forgotten, Eli could already see the Air Ship landing near the mountains. He drove towards the mountain, the green colored Air Ship was guarded by Emerald Guards from Kras City. Spargus had no guard system in place besides the rule: Revenge is best served cold. Grante got out of the car and walked over to a guard who was checking ID's and asking were they were going, Eli stood back and watched as Grante gave a card to the graud. He nodded and gave it back to her; she pocketed the card and stretched.

"They'll be leaving in an hour; I have a seat at the bottom."

"What was that you showed him?" Grante smirked and shoved him.

"That's for me to know, and you to never find out."

"Bully," He said running back to the car; Grante rolled her eyes and followed.

"Now what?" She asked leaning on the hood of the Dune Hopper, Eli tapped the wheel. Now what was a good question? They had an hour to do whatever they wanted, what was in the Wasteland he could show her without getting in trouble from his dad?

"How 'bout dune hopping?" Grante raised an eyebrow at him.

"Is it dangerous?" Eli smirked.

"Very."

"Hell no." She walked away from the car; Eli smirked and drove towards her. He reached out grabbed her waist and pulled her into the car, she screamed as he drove away from the Air Ship. He smirked and locked his left arm around her waist; she kept fighting it but finally gave up and drag her nails into his arm. He smirked and found the first dune, the car leaped over it and slid to one side.

"Was that fun?" He laughed driving towards the metal ramps that the twins always leaped over, trying to see how fast it took to clear them.

"No!" She yelled laughing. "I think I'm- don't do that!" She screamed when he slammed on the gas to make it up the huge sand dune, her nails bit even harder into Eli's skin. He pulled his arm away from around her waist and grabbed the wheel; he needed both hands to control the car. He gripped the wheel as they went off the ramp and onto the other, Grante laughed when they skid to a stop.

"Could you do that in Kras?"

"In certain places, yes."

"Like where?" She put an arm around his neck.

"Bass Hunt maybe, I have to take you there one day."

"I'm sure I can out race any Krasian." She rolled her eyes.

"You're too cocky, we would take that as advantage." He smirked.

"I'm proud of how I drive."

"Reckless?"

"Yup."

"That's not a good thing."

"In some countries… it's a good thing to be cocky, reckless and dangerous." Grante laughed.

"That's because you have Marauders chasing you around every day, Elijah!" Eli smiled, she never did smile before or laugh… what was up with that? She got out of the car and walked around, she sat in the passenger seat and leaned back. "Let's get back to the Air Ship, I don't want to miss my chance to go home."

"I promise I'll fix your car."

"Sure." Grante said glancing towards the setting sun, the sun that was sending purplish red streaks along the sky towards the darkness which we call night. Eli took the long way back, he glanced up to the Precursor Monk Tower. Daara came right into his mind, how long was she going to stay away? No human connect for how many days? He knows that this is hard for her, but staying away for this amount of time without talking about it would drive anyone absolutely mad. He slowed the car for a second, for Daara to give the signal that she saw him. A couple seconds passed by and he saw a flash, Eli smiled and slammed on the gas and raced forward.

"Poor Daara," Eli mumbled to himself.

: Elijah. Are you around, come to the Air Ship right away! There's something you have to see.:

Eli glanced to Grante, who was trying not to pay attention to what the commutation box was saying. He started to race towards Forgotten City, it was getting harder to see every second that passed by but when he saw the gray curling smoke rise from the city; he knew there was a Metal Head Attack. He stopped the Dune Hopper near the Air Ship, he looked right at Grante. Her eyes were searching through the dark to find what everyone was trying to destroy, she glanced to Eli and wrinkled her nose.

"What?"

"Get out."

"What!" Grante shouted, Eli shoved her out of the car and raced towards the area his dad was in. He glanced back in the mirror to see a bunch of EG's helping Grante onto the Air Ship, she was putting up a struggling but finally got into it. Eli turned and almost ran into something, the Dune Hopper skid to the side and almost ran over a group of people.

At first Eli thought it was a Maneater, but he the creature was wearing clothes and had a gun on it's belt. The creature jumping onto the car and dragged it's long claws along the hood of the Dune Hopper, scratching through paint and metal. Eli punched the gas going backwards then went forward, sending the creature forward. It fell into the sand and rolled, Eli grabbed his gun and ran towards it. The creature dragged his claws in the sand as he came closer to the blonde, Eli fumbled with his gun. His fingers wouldn't move right to load it or charge the damn thing. The creature smirked and raised a claw but shuddered away when he saw another creature behind him, this creature was just like the one in front of him but looked a lot like Jak.

Jak tackled the creature into the sand as Eli ran to his car, his dad was back in his 'dark' form again. He hated his 'dark' form, he really did. His dad wasn't his dad anymore, no more of the happy dad that he always knew. No it was an angry, dangerous dad that was in his place.

"Elijah!" Sig shouted running over to him, the creatures had stopped wrestling in the sand. "Come out!" Sig shouted yanking Eli out of the car, he rolled his eyes and ran after his uncle and skid to a stop when he saw a body laying in the sand. It had all the same clothes as the creature but its skin was back to a tanned color, Eli pushed past a man and looked down at his father. Jak glanced up to him, if he ever saw his dad wearing a torn face it was now.

He also wished he had a camera.


"Seth!" Keira said and hugged her son, Seth winced when his mouth's arms went around his sunburned neck. He hissed at her as she pulled away and cupped her hands around his face, and stared into his two toned eyes. Her bottom lip trembled when she saw his normal green eye and his abnormal purple, she glared to Jak. He just shrugged and glanced to Eli, who still had his arms crossed over his chest ever since they left Forgotten City.

"I haven't forgotten what happened between you and her." Eli shrugged and pushed past Seth, Herr ran down the stairs and into the arms of his big brother; Seth. Eli glanced back at them before he went to his room; he shut the door and pulled out his communication unit. It was 7:14pm, that means it was 10:14pm in Kras, too late to phone Grante to apologize for the way he acted. He put his communication unit down when his door was opened, Jak walked in and closed the door behind him.

"Hey dad," Eli said sitting on his bed. "I'm really tired; can you yell at me tomorrow?"

"No," Jak said leaning on the teen's dresser. "I think you'll benefit from learning about Dark Eco."

"No."

"This is an open discussion, Elijah, I want to learn it for safety reasons. You don't have to use it all the time, but I won't let what happened to Seth happen to you. He lost control because he was scared and lost, you will join us tomorrow for class."

"Fuck." Eli fell back on his bed and closed his eyes. Damn it. There was another knock at the door, he didn't bother getting up or answering it.

"Elijah," Seth whispered flipping a coin on his finger. "I have an offer for you."

"I don't want it."

"Believe me." Seth chuckled. "You want this."

"Screw you Seth."

Seth chuckled again and threw the coin up in the air, he caught it again and smirked as he crushed it. He shared everything with his twin, but since he didn't want it... he'll just ask another. "Okay." Seth said going to his own room, he closed the door and locked it. Who was next on his list? He went under his bed and pulled out a photo album, he cut out pictures of Eli's school photo, a picture of Lei in her bikini, Kahen in her school uniform, Jahen working on a zoomer, Daara laying in only her bra and panties and finally Grante holding up an award. He pasted them all on the wall; he paced back and forth glancing back and forth at each of his friends.

Eli said no, because he wasn't strong enough for it. Lei would tell Jak what his plans were, Jahen wouldn't because he the stupid genes from his dad flow in his veins so he would try to destory Seth's plans. Daara, even though she was his dealer, would never go along with his plan; Grante was with Eli on this. All that was letf was Kahen, Seth picked her picture off the wall. With Praxis' blood flowing in her veins; she wanted power like her mother. Anything that made her more powerful she would jump on the train for it, Seth smirked and put the photo back on the wall.

"Now all I need is to find whatever HE wants me to find." He glanced to Eli's photo. "Poor little brother, you'll never know what it's like to be this powerful."

"Seth!" Herr shouted from behind the door. "It's dinner!" Seth nodded and opened his door, he picked up his baby brother and poked his nose. Herr would be just like him when he was of age, strong and powerful like him. Seth walked in as his mother put down the meals, Eli sat with his down glaring at his food. Seth smirked. Herr would be powerful like his big brother and his dad, Seth glanced to Jak who was smirking at Keira.

He wouldn't ask his dad to join him, because he already had his taste of power. True power. The Precusors asked him to join them, and he refused. When it was offered to Seth, he would take it.

TBC...
