Chapter 11: Cataclysm in Time (6)


-Reconquista Base, Cromwell's Palace moments before it transformed into Clockwork Tower Flying Island-

'What's this? I can't teleport again.' Thought by Wardes as he was hiding from the guards in a barrel. He sneakily get away and found himself on the throne room. "Bravo, bravo… Bravo." [Cromwell] clapped his hands sarcastically while his right eye was glowing red.

"YOU!" Wardes exclaimed while pointing his sword at him. Cromwell laughed as guards with red runes on their heads entered the area. "Do you think I'm not aware of your presence, Chronos!?" He then snapped his fingers and the guards near Wardes/Chronos. "You traitor. Is this what you've become after the Entropy incident!?" Wardes/Chronos shouted. [Cromwell] smiled and shouted "Wardes betrayed us! He was working with the royalists all along!" Suddenly numerous guards appear after the red glow vanished from Cromwell and the guards.

Wardes/Chronos teleported and find himself on a barrel and was knocked out by a stone falling from the ceiling, he regained consciousness later and saw the entire building transforms into a clock tower. 'This is... Zero Magia!'

-Moments later-

"Find him! That traitor, Wardes!" Shouted by Cromwell as he pointed his sword in front of him while he was riding a horse of onyx stone.

'Damn it! That man is hard to escape with. Not only that. I can no longer teleport because of this accursed [Territory].' Wardes/Chronos heard a clatter of an armor. "There he is!" Shouted by a guard as it charged at him with a lance. Wardes/Chronos dodged and strike him with his sword. The decapitated head rolled and numerous clatters nearby. He evades and sneakily went into a box nearby. "Where is he!?" Said by a guard as he looked everywhere. The guards then heard a noise and run towards it, while Wardes/Chronos sneakily run away from them and saw an orb of black and red glowing sigils emanated from it and was being transported on top of the clock tower. 'Is that... The Orb of Calamity!? I better get to the other pieces at once or else...' He shuddered at the thought of it and went stealthily run towards a cliff. 'This is going to be a long fall.' He thought, then he heard the galloping of a horse. He smiled as he faced [Cromwell] and he jumped off a cliff backwards of the now flying island. [Cromwell] halted the guards and looked at the location where Wardes/Chronos is but it was too late, he was gone. [Cromwell]'s eyes emanated red but calmed down a bit as he heard the orb was now in placed. He smiled and said, "The portal to end times approaches..."

-Meanwhile-

"Prince Wales, the carriage is ready." Said by a guard.

"Underst-" Wales was interrupted by a sound of a crash nearby and after the dust cleared, Wardes/Chronos is seen. "Sorry about that. I'm in a hurry." Said by Wardes/Chronos. "Wardes?" Said by Wales as he was entering the carriage before it sped up.

Suddenly a bright orb appeared and transformed into the form of Magnus…
