Orillia POV
Dylan was in the driver's seat of his war ship Rav Gnev, while I sat in the back with Finn, my great great great great great great great great great great grandson. I had to say, who ever my grandkids married, dang did they make one spitting image of God's creation. He had beautiful blond hair that reached down to his shoulder blades, he had deep glowing blue eyes, and a wonderful smile. Dylan said that he was a water elemental and he went bezerk two years ago in a land called Ooo. He kept his head low rocking back and forth trying to comfort himself with all of this new information. I took off my helmet and looked at him with sincere eyes.
"Finn?" I asked
He looked up suddenly with tears in his eyes, I felt bad for the kid knowing that the person he severed his mechanical arm off was his great ancestor, and that the new arrival at Felwinter Peak was his great great great great great great great great great great Grandmother.
"Yeah gran- eh sorry, Orillia." he said
"Are you okay?" I asked
"Yeah, I'm good." he said and bowed his head again
"... Listen Finn, I know all of this really crazy and overwhelming, but when we get back to Felwinter Peak, you can ask me all the questions that you have and I'll probably be able to answer them all, does that sound nice?" I said
He slowly nodded his head and smiled, "Yeah, I would like that." he said. This brought a smile to my face, to see Finn smile. "Dekára Haley! You sound like mom!" shouted out Dylan from the driver's seat, "Oh god shut up Dylan!" I shouted out, "Ha ha!" he laughed and the lurched the ship forward.
"Hey, Orillia?" said Finn
"Yeah?" I said
"I have two questions I was wondering you could answer?" said Finn
"Okay, shoot." I said
"how are you my ancestor? I mean I'm older than you, and El, how old are you?" Finn asked
"okay, for the love for everything that is still good on this dekára earth, stop calling me El! If I was a girl I wouldn't have a problem with it, but I'm not a girl, so it's just Eleven! And my age is 6,000 years old." he said
"How are you that old? You were born on February 15th 2001!" I shouted
"Gauntlet. Threw me back in time. Wandered history like a bum. Watched me and you grow up." said Dylan
"Ooohh-kay." I said
"So he's semi older than me, and your 200 years old. The math doesn't add up." said Finn
"I don't really know-" I said
"She's your granny on your human side Finn, and seeing that was just a decoy look. Haley is your mom's great ancestor. On your human mom." said Dylan
"Okay that solves that question, second question."
"Alright." I said
"... How did you die?" he asked
"Whew … well that's a touchy subject." I said
"Well did you die like your brother?" asked Finn
"I don't know. Hey Dil! How did you die?" I shouted out
"Vaporized." he said
"... Oh." we both said
"So did you die like him?" asked Finn
"No no, I died much differently." I said
200 years ago…
I was exploring the wild ruins of a place once called Washington D.C. I had ratty hunting fatigue on, I was equipped with a old combat knife, a sniper rifle, and a bow and arrow slung across my back in case I run out of ammo for my gun. I looked around scanning my surroundings, then my radio sparked to life startling me. I grabbed it from my belt and pressed down on the receiver, "Hello?" I asked, "Hello? Mom?" said the small voice of a little girl, "Star, honey what are you doing on the coms at this time of hour?" I said, "A guardian named Shaxx is here and is wondering where you are?" said the girl, "I'm out getting us breakfast, I thought you were in bed?" I said, "I was, but then I heard a weird noise, and today is my birthday." said Star, "Oh my gosh sweetie I'm so sorry, tell you what-" I was cut off by the sound of a branch snapping. I turned around pointing my gun at the origin of the sound, it was just a coyote. I shooed it off my clapping my hands together and making loud noises (thank goodness Dylan was dead or I'd never hear the end of it.) When the coyote ran away, I smiled with content happy that my spin-off of Dylan's survival skills actually worked. Then when I turned my attention back to the road I was struck in the face my a baseball bat. I fell on my back and felt blood rushing from my nose. I looked up and saw three humanoid figures looking down at me laughing. There was a ringing in my ear making it hard to catch what they were saying. The one with the bat bent down and took out a knife and put it up to my chin.
"Ello love." he said in a thick British accent
"Uh, what do you want?" I said in a weak voice
"Eh must've hit her good mates!" he laughed
"Yeah!" hooted one of them
"Nice on Nico." said a female
"Now to what we want…" said Nico
"Mom! … Mom are you there?" Star's voice still emitting from the radio
"Star." I moaned
"Ah, so you have a little chick nearby huh love." said Nico
"Please … leave her alone." I pleaded
"I'm afraid we can't do that love, you see, we're bandits, and we take what we want! And we want your stuff." said Nico
"No you won't." I said and kicked him in the groin causing him to tumble to the ground holding his balls. I crawled to my feet and unslung my bow and arrow and notched two arrows and fired them at the other two bandits. One of the arrows made their mark but the other sailed by the other pitifully. He snickered at me and grabbed my gun from the ground and aimed it at me. I notched another arrow and aimed it at him.
BANG BANG
I felt my nerves freeze. I looked down and saw a blood stain growing on my shirt. I looked up at the bandit and saw that he had a bullet hole in between his eyes, he fell to the ground face first and made a crunching noise as his face hit the ground.
"Rick!" yelled Nico as he managed to recover from the sering pain of my kick to his balls. He got up but only got a swift punch to the face from a mystery man with a hood/cape with a deer head printed on it. I started to lose conscious and I fell on my back and looked up at the sky on last time before I ascend to the heavens with the rest of my family. I started to hallucinate or something because the man that sucker punched Nico had my brother's face. I couldn't hear what he was saying but I only managed to hear one thing, my name. I touched his face and felt the immense heat coming from him, I uttered my last words as I started to lose my sight, "Please … take … care … of. Star." then I was gone.
Present…
Finn was looking at me with teary eyes and amazed eyes. "Wow … and I thought my near death was horrible." he said, "Ha, ha! True that man, getting shocked to death by an electric babe, that would have been a pitiful death." joked Dylan, "Dude … how do you know so much about my rogue times two years ago?" asked Finn, "Dude! I've lost about 2% of my body following you Phoebe and Simon." said Dylan, "Wait you lost more that your arm?" exclaimed Finn and I, "Sure did." said Dylan now sounding like Bill Murray, "What the heck?" I said, "I lost my arm, and my vocal cords." he said, "So that's why you sound like Bill Murray." I said, "Oh, I see?" said Finn, "We're approaching the Plaguelands." said Dylan as he pulled up the ship and dropped us outside of the ship. I felt my stomach crunch and my breakfast creeping up my throat. "Don't worry you'll get used to it." he said, "Nope! Not gonna happen." I said and swallowed my breakfast again.
We transmatted to a deemed safe zone in the Plaguelands called Lord's Watch where our so called safe equipment setup there was no longer safe. It was infected by S.I.V.A, sprouting from the inside and out.
"So where do we head?" asked Finn as he was fighting with his tactical pants.
"A little constricting?" I giggled
"Ergh, you don't say!" he snapped
"Ah you'll get used to it." said Dylan as he was analysing a map that his ghost was projecting.
"Easy for you to say, you probably sleep with that on." grumbled Finn
"Actually, I sleep with a white undershirt and boxers. I tried doing that once, the rest is history that will scar you for life." he said
"Ookay, TMI Dil, TMI."
"Ha, ha, even after six thousand years, I've still go i - ah crap." he said as multiple red dots started blipping on his map.
"Um, if you remember your past Dil, you probably remember that is one of the many words that I don't like." I said
"Yep I remember, but seriously ah crap." he said again
"You're just doing this on purpose are you?" I argued
"Finn! Please calm your granny, I'm trying to figure out something." Dylan said brushing me off.
"Granny! Oh why you little!" I jumped at him and started beating the top of his helmet.
"HEY! Get off a me ya twerp!" he yelled and we started to wrestle.
Finn looked at the both of us and then facepalmed himself.
"My ancestors are idiots."
Finn raised his hands and then two giant hands made of water raised from the ground and separated me and Dylan from our pitiful wrestling. I tried to grab his leather coat and shake him some more but the hands would not allow it.
"Okay, Eleven? What did you mean by ah crap?" asked Finn
"Oh don't you start with that too Finn." I said
"Ah crap means, they have deployed multiple Dusk Lords in the Plaguelands, the gun emplacements have been repaired so it may be a bit harder to leave here once we get the kill codes, and the security around the Archon Forge has been significantly increased." he said
"I assume that would be the works of you?" asked Finn
"Oh you just hit the nail on the head." Dylan chuckled
"So how are we going to get there without getting our buns roasted, because splicer's weapons actually hurt me?" asked Finn
"By, you're going to find that there are going to be a lot of weapons in this universe that can hurt you." chuckled Dylan
"Yeah, I think the warminds have shown me that true meaning of pain." he said
"Pft, that's only human weapons, you've yet to feel the burn of the taken knight, the bone-crushing pain of the cabal, the agonizing knowledge of the vex, and god! Those Frost Crawlers are something that I will not want you to feel." said Dylan
"Is that your uncle side kicking in?" joked Finn
"Can it kid, don't get smart with me. I know you may be 19,996,982 years old, and I'm 6,000 years old here. And it may be my uncle instincts kicking in." said Eleven
"Aw, you finally have a kid to look after." I joked
Finn started to shake his head and hands frantically gritting his teeth. Dylan took a deep labored breath then motioned us to follow him and mumbling something under his breath, my guess it was in gallic. I turned back at Finn and pointed at him.
"Um … does my brother have a stick up his ass or is he just like that?" I asked
"You probably don't know because you haven't seen him in awhile, but he short story of it is that he was shot back in time, and had a daughter in 1987, and she was killed when she was eight years old." he said
I just felt my tear sack break. My brother had a little girl and she was killed at such a young age. I covered my mouth and gasped, "I - I di-" Finn patted my back and said, "It's okay, he only told us about it in his story of how he knew my girlfriend." he said, "Yeah about that, she's a cute one. So how long have you been together?" I asked, "Well we met when we were thirteen, we broke up a few months later." he said, "Oh, was she using you for a round up?" I asked, "A round up?" he said confused, "It's what girls normally do when they feel like their feeling low." I explained, "Um … no she didn't do that, I tricked her into battling the Ice King, and she left me." he said, "Well you got back together soon after right, because you're doing tier 12 with her now." I said, "Yeah, after 3 years, then I went berserk and then we got back together an -" he stopped in mid sentence and looked at me with an annoyed face, "What?" I asked, "Okay, could you please explain to me what that is, Jake told me about the tiers, but never explained it completely with me since." he said, "What did he tell you about it?" I asked, "He told me about tier one hugging. Then tier 2 smooching. Then tier 5 when she shows me her stomach. Then tier 8 when she lets me touch her horn. Then I asked about tier 15 -" he said, "Good lord how old were you when he told you about this?" I exclaimed, "13." he said, "Well thank God he never told you the rest!" I said, "Why not?" he asked, "I think it about time that you and your granny have had the talk." I said, "You can have the talk later, right now we descend below." said Dylan, "Um, how much -" "Oh don't worry, I just heard all of it." answered Dylan before Finn could finish.
He summoned a flaming battle axe and raised it to the sky. He twirled it around a bit then smashed the axe head into the ground blasting the area around us creating a strange yet familiar symbol in the ground. The ground started to sink down creating a perfect circle.
"What do you guys think? Too much Batman?" he asked
"Um, yeah bit too much." I said
"Um … who's Batman?" asked Finn
"Okay! When we get back to base, we definitely need to have a talk about comics." said Dylan
"Dude chill, I know almost everything that happened in history up to when that big white ball in the sky came?" said Finn
Dylan shook his head and put his hand up, "Okay, because if you didn't know that, I probably would have had a stroke." he said and jumped into the hole.
I ran to the hole and looked down and saw that Dylan was okay. "It's fine, it's just the old subway network of the plaguelands." he said. Then Finn shrugged and jumped down and made a small splash as he landed, and there wasn't any water down there. Dylan slugged his shoulder and laughed, "Show off." he said, "I don't show off man." said Finn, "ah, forget it let's just go." Dylan cried.
Felwinter Peak…
Bonnibel was hammering down everything that she could remember from her time as the lead scientist for Malice's evil experiments. She lived through hell in those days. Then she felt a cold metallic hand grab her shoulder, she squealed and jumped at the contact. She turned around and saw Shiro 4 putting his hands up in defence not meaning to startle the candy tyrant. "Apologies your majesty, was just wondering what all that noise was coming from." said the banana exo, "It's okay … um sorry but I don't think I've been introduced to you yet, what's your name?" asked Bonnie, "Shiro 4, Vanguard scout and Iron Lord." he said, "Well, nice to meet you Shiro 4 what brings you to my lab?" asked Bonnie, "Um I'm sorry if I sound rude but I'm just saying this out of respects to the fallen Iron Lords, but this lab used to belong to Iron Lords Felwinter and Timur." said Shiro, "Oh, okay I will respect your wishes and address this lab as the property of the fallen Iron Lords." Bonnie said, "So what are you doing in here?" asked Shiro, "I'm recording all of my memories from my time as a splicer." said Bonnibel, "Ah, I see. So what can you remember?" asked Shiro curiously, "Um, there a bit hazy but I remember doing some repairs on a trashed ship named Raz Gnev, I've helped improve the landscape security layout of a place called the Plaguelands, the cloning process of Finn's elemental DNA signature, and the transformation of a spherical entity into a dark entity." she said, "Wait! Did you say spherical entity?" asked Shiro, "Um yeah, is that important?" asked Bonnie, "Could you print those files?" asked Shiro, "Um, sure but I'm not finished remembering everything." she said, "This is important enough." said Shiro.
She pressed the print button on the computer and the papers. He grabbed them and ran out the door. Bubblegum stood alone in the room awkwardly, "Um … okay, your welcome." she called out. Then she went back to the computer screen and tried to type some more memories, but nothing came. She kept on thinking about the fact that she was talking to a robot that didn't need any type of programing to perform the functions that it featured, and that weird thought that she shared with her brother Neddy, but stronger. Is this … love? She slammed the keyboard and grabbed her coat and ran out the door after the exo.
When Shiro arrived at the Hall of the Iron Lords, he found Saladin and Efrideet talking about the new threat of Malice and how the Iron Lords of old would not stand for this and would righteously avenge the attack on the Tower and City. When they saw Shiro run into the hall they stopped and faced him.
"Shiro, what's the problem?" asked Efrideet
"I just was talking to Bonnibel, and she remembered a great load of tasked that she did when she was a splicer, and one of the things that she remembered one task that is of immense importance." he said and handed Saladin the pages. His eyes grew wider with each word he read. "This is impossible, how would they be able to achieve such a feat?" wondered Saladin, "The death of a powerful light source and the blood of a god." said Bonnie as she entered the hall out of breath and panting, "Princess Bubblegum." said Saladin. Efrideet snickered at the name making Bonnie frown, "Yeah yeah, laugh it up, I got that a lot at the Tower, especially from a crazy four armed freak named Skolas." she said, "Sorry but the title … it's just to fun-ny!" she laughed, "So why haven't they done it yet? They have Oryx and Crota they're both gods." said Shiro, "They don't need that kind of blood, they need the blood of an elemental god." said Bonnie, "Where would they find the blood of an elemental god?" asked Shiro, "Simple, we have two of them that walk amongst us." she said, "... Eleven?" said the Iron Lords, "And Finn." said Bonnie.
The Plaguelands…
G-11 POV
We were at the secret entrance to the Archon Forge, the only entrance to the entrance to the S.I.V.A replication chamber, to the Iron Tomb … the place where my brothers and sisters died. The place where my wife died. I scanned the area around us picking up multiple enemies in the room, I cursed under my breath and looked back at Haley and Finn. I lowered the volume in my helmet and told them the situation. "Okay, so there's about twenty splicers out there and about five Dusk Lords out there, so were going to need to-" I was cut off when the alarms sounded and the hole's entrance grew wide enough for the splicers to see us. But all of the splicers were impaled by spears made a water like substance, and the Dusk Lords were being consumed by the ground. I looked back at Finn and smacked the back of his head, "Dude! Cad an ifreann, they have cameras here." I said, "Oh … oops." he said.
Long story short, we all got on my sparrow and launched ourselves to the rep chamber the hard way (literally , I got Finn to blast through the walls in my way.) When we to Site 6, there was a Goliath tank that was heavily modded with S.I.V.A. I have to admit, not even I could take a thing like that down. I looked at Finn and made a bowing gesture at the tank, "After you." I said he smiled with pleasure and snapped his fingers and a sheet of water shot out of the floor and chopped the tank in two. Haley and I were speechless at the might of the water elemental as he wiped out the rest of the obstacles with a funnel like blast from his double sided trident. He brushed his hands together and looked at me, "So … how did I do?" he asked, "... You kid … you are gonna have some stories to tell to your kids in the future." I said and walked forward to the entrance to the replication chamber. I could hear the echoes that still haunt this god forsaken piece of earth. I stepped forward and allowed gravity to take me down the slide. I could hear Haley having the time of her life while Finn was screaming for his life. When we ran out of slide we were in free fall making Finn scream even more. When we touched down I could hear Haley scream in pain. I turned around and saw her holding her legs cursing creatively, while Finn glided down gracefully with a pair of watery wings sprouted from his back. I pointed at him and nodded, "That's new." I said, "Nope, that's always been a thing." said Finn, "Cool." I said, "Yeah, don't mind me, I just broke both my legs, no big deal." Haley said, "Well you should have used your light to soften you fall." I said, "Shut up." she said, "Are you okay Orillia?" asked Finn, "Thank you Finn, I'll be okay soon, and thanks for the consideration…" her voice died down as she looked up and pointed fearfully at the ceiling. I looked behind me and my jaw dropped. Spear like pillars towering from the bottomless abyss of the landscape, with the bodies of devil splicers impaled atop the strange formations.
"Those were definitely not there the last time I was here." I said. Finn walked up to one of the pillars and dragged his hand across the rough surface of it. When he withdrew his hand, the pillar turned to mist and the corpse of the splicer fell the ground hard with a disturbing sound that will make you vomit. He rubbed his fingers together and looked back at us, "Lets pray to God that you didn't set off a trap." I said, "It's water." he said, "What?" asked Haley, "The pillars are made of water." he said, "But that's impossible, only you can control water, unless …" I flashed back to one of my battles alongside my wife and pillars erupted from the ground impaling our enemies. I pushed it aside and looked at the giant warmind diamond shaped cell that was suspended above the pit.
I jumped up to the platform and entered the old codes that I used to close the Iron Tomb the last time I was here, I guess that nothing stays closed. The vault doors opened up like the time machine from Back to the Future. I was scared when I saw the insides, splicers were hanging from the ceiling, ether and blood covered the walls and floors, and the air was stale and filled with the blood for my fallen brethren, I knew then that we were about to enter the hell that seeds our earth.
We ventured down the hallway being confronted by more corpses of mutilated splicers. "What in glob's name happened here?" asked Finn, "Did the Iron Lords do all of this?" asked Haley, "No … the fallen didn't discover S.I.V.A until one hundred and ten years ago." I said, "All of this is recent." I said, "Well, that has just upped the haunted house factor to this hell hole." said Haley, "Hey, it's one thing for me to describe things darkly, but you don't get to take my trade mark." I said, "Oh goodness, take notes Finn, this dude hates it when people steals his stuff." said Haley, "Hey, you don't know what it feels like to have your roommate take your idea of the next cold fusion warp drive schematics in your sleep." I said.
When we came out of the hall way, we came across a bridge leading to the Iron Tomb, this time there wasn't splicer corpses anywhere, this time there were Dusk Lords that littered the floor. Good friends of mine that were turned by the darkness, killed by an unknown force littered the halls of the burial place of the Iron Lords. I spoke a few words of blessing and bidded them a few words of my home land "Long may your big jib draw." I said, "Oh. My. God! You did not just say may you all have a long and happy life to a bunch of corpses in newfinees!" shouted Haley practically laughing, "Sigh … lets just do this." I said having a tidal wave of memories from my time in the Iron Banner flood my mind filling me with despair.
We entered the replication chamber and saw the corpses of my fallen brothers and sisters scattered across the floor, with faces of horror permanently frozen on their faces. I closed my eyes shut and accessed the chambers' mainframe. I searched for the kill codes to this damned virus that plagues this earth. "Um, could you speed the process up a bit, this kind of human tech is creeping me out." said Finn, "Wow Finn, thanks for telling me to hurry up searching for the kill codes to tech that killed my brethren and my wife in the place that they died on a console that is two thousand freaking years old!" I snapped at him, "I am trying my best FYI!" I said. Then the computer stopped at a file named S.I.V.A kill code /REVELATION/ I summoned Nine and asked him to copy the codes on to a port drive. When he was half way through the process, embers started to crawl across the ceiling, the hairs on my back started to rise, I took out my guns ready to go full gunslinger on whatever pops out. Then embers stopped at the largest black triangle in the center of the room, then it started to hiss and steam bursted from the opening cracks. Then a black and red claw gripped the opening covered in ether and blood. Finn summoned his blades as Haley drew her bow aimed at the creature emerging from the diamond. When it fully emerged I dropped my weapons and fell on my knees in disbelief.
A beautiful woman emerged from the diamond covered in S.I.V.A, black triangles covering her body, old tattered Iron Lord cloth and armor gripped to her naked skin, her eyes burned crimson red, and her hair a floating in the air like she was under water. Haley and Finn were shaking me trying to shake me out of my trance.
"Who dares enter my domain?" demand the woman
"No … it. Can't, be." I said
"Back off weird lady! You're messing with an Iron Lord and a water elemental!" yelled Finn
"Wow … and I'm chopped liver." said Haley
"And her too!" yelled Finn again
"Wow, thanks."
I looked at her with misty eyes. I couldn't believe it, she is alive. "Di-Diana?" I said
"Who?" asked Haley
"What did you sa-"
"Distraction!" yelled Finn as he shot a blast of water at Diana. The blast froze in mid air. Finn was filled with shock, Diana flexed her hand willing the water to bend to her will. She looked back at us and smiled evilly, "So you've come to attempt to end us once more guardian, and you've brought some friends to die with you." Diana laughed, "Dylan! Who is this yoga ball wonko, and how can she control water like I can?" cried Finn, "Her name is Diana, she's one of the Iron Ladies that fell in battle, she's a water elemental … and my wife." I said, "WHAT!" they both yelled, "Now die!" Diana yelled as the corpses of the fallen Iron Lords started to be reanimated with light and S.I.V.A. they looked at us with hate and remorse, they raised their weapons and charged at us letting out a warmongering death cry. Diana landed on the ground and whipped her hands up at Finn and pulled them towards her. He collapsed to the ground and the watery essence of Ocara was being forcefully ripped out of him and settling in Diana, turning him back into a mortal like Malice did two years ago.
"Foder." I said
Hey guys! I'm back, and putting my heart and soul into my book. I hope you like this chapter! Eleven's wife is alive and is the god of S.I.V.A and a water elemental, dang I did not see that coming! Finn having his powers stripped from him, this story is becoming more and more like Insurrection with each chapter. If you wonder where I was, I was hard at work in homework and working hard at Tim Hortons. Life is getting harder in grade 11. But I can assure you all that I will try and find the time to write my story and make it as head rolling as possible (I hope I said that right.)

Your books The Abandoned and The Broken are great fantasy genre books I have ever read. I can't wait for the next chapter!
And as always let your imagination go wild, long may your big jib draw, and don't beat your siblings doors with cucumbers.
