Chapter Eighteen:

My back hurts, thought the young soldier. I can't wait for my shift to end.

His eyes wandered over the terrain of the once lush planet. All of the plant life was slowly dying and it wouldn't be long before the planet became nothing more than a desert. Already this area of Sageria was a wasteland. Not that the young soldier had noticed or even cared about the condition of his world, since his only concern was to please his lord, Daisan.

There were no other buildings or a single living soul in sight. He looked beyond the energy gate surrounding the perimeter of the castle and at the endless mounds of sand in the distance. The heat cast down from the red sun above him was intense.

Though the soldier felt wary and tired, he didn't look it. He stood erect and alert holding his titanium spear rod tightly. He glanced over at his partner guarding the other side of the entrance to the castle. He, too, showed no signs of fatigue. Despite their ten hours of standing watch, neither of the two would dare complain. Lately there were fewer and fewer Sagerian guards being used at the castle. Master Daisan was slowly replacing them with his Phantom Beasts.

The young soldier then averted his eyes away from his partner and glanced upward at the tallest tower of the large stronghold. The tower reached beyond the clouds of the scorched red and orange sky. It was the place where Lord Daisan resided. Out of nowhere a fierce wind blew across his face, blowing sand in his eyes. A dark red light crackled in front of them and three cloaked figures stood in place.

"Halt!" shouted the two guards as they ran forward toward the unidentified visitors. "No one may just enter Master Daisan's strong hold. State your business quickly!"

The smaller figure of the three removed their hood. The soldiers cried out as they lowered their spear rods and bowed quickly.

"Empress Sesha…" the young soldier sputtered. "I had no idea it was you. Please forgive me."

The other two figures removed their hoods as well. They stared past the two soldiers as though they weren't there and walked toward the entrance.

"King Tacere, Lord Lycoris, my apologies."

Sesha regarded the two soldiers with disdain. The two guards began to sweat more profusely under her dark glare. She could smell their fear and hear their hearts beating fast. Not fast enough as far Sesha was concerned. The older of the two guards noticed that Sesha had reverted back to her human form. The black reptilian scales that covered her body were replaced by smooth, porcelain white skin and the long black claws on her hands shorten (well, somewhat). The two sharp fangs in her mouth and the cold hardness in her eyes remained, though. She made a slight growl of disgust as she walked past them and then paused.

"Fools. Next time make sure that you recognize your superiors. Unfortunately, I have no time to make sure you will not forget. Consider yourselves lucky." Sesha hissed through her bared teeth.

Both guards quickly thanked her for her mercy.

Sesha continued on into the stronghold. She quickly caught up with Lycoris and Tacere as they walked through the castle hallways.

"Your guards are poorly trained, Tacere," she taunted, "I am not surprised though. You, Sagerians are so weak and incompetent. No wonder my people have dominated over yours for centuries."

Tacere balled his fists angrily and looked in the snake woman's direction. He saw that she had returned to her so-called "human form". She looked more like a vampire to him with her unnaturally pale skin. The tips of her pincer teeth peeked out slightly through her closed lipped smile. Tacere quickly covered his anger.

"How dare you talk down to me?! It wasn't that long ago that your ancestors crawled along the ground on their bellies like mindless serpents, while my people traveled through the stars," he replied in a tone of disregard.

Sesha made a small curse in her native tongue.

"Oh, please Tacere. Do not lecture me about superiority." Sesha warned. "Especially since it is beginning to become more apparent that Daisan is losing interest in the Sagerian people."

She then motioned her head toward the two passing Phantom Beasts as they continued down the corridor.

Tacere scowled.

Lycoris looked at the two out the corner of his eyes. He tired of having to reside in their company.

'All the energy they put into their feud could have been more wisely used on accomplishing this mission,' he thought privately as he gave a mental sigh.

The three continued on into the transport room. The guards moved aside so that Sesha, Lycoris, and Tacere could step onto the large circular platform in the center of the room. The technician at the control pad quickly typed in their destination to Master Daisan's tower. Bright light shot up around the platform and enveloped them as they dematerialized.

When they reappeared they were standing in the middle of Daisan's throne room. The floor on which they stood was made of black marble with a glassy, smooth surface. The walls were made of granite stone blocks. Each block had intricate ancient designs that none of them had seen before, chiseled into their surface. Large pillars held up the dome shaped ceiling above them. The room was actually quite elegantly made despite its dark décor. Sesha, Lycoris, and Tacere looked up toward the throne on the tall platform. Daisan peered down at them stony faced with displeasure. The three of them all at once took a knee and bowed their heads.

"The three of you have failed me." Daisan replied darkly.

"Tacere, I put you in command. Step forward." Tacere rose to his feet to explain the reason for their mission's mishap.

"Master Daisan, please allow me to explain. We followed the Time Mistress' servant; the one called Utori, just as you instructed. She was not difficult to track. When we found her she had already attained the warriors from the first two dimensions. We followed her into the last two worlds of the warriors to be gathered. Unfortunately, Sesha made her attack on Utori without the aid of Lycoris or myself. Thus, allowing the girl and all of the chosen warriors from the four worlds to escape."

Tacere turned and angrily pointed a finger in Sesha's direction. "She is to blame for our failure!"

"What!" Sesha cried furiously as she stood up. "If it wasn't for me the girl would have gotten away with the chosen ones effortlessly! We should have killed her as soon as we spotted her, but this dolt wanted to wait! The failure of this mission is yours alone, Tacere!"

"And what says you, Lycoris?" Daisan asked calmly.

Tacere and Sesha turned their burning glares of hatred from each other and toward Lycoris. Each of their gazes telling him to chose his side wisely. Lycoris stepped forward not looking at either Tacere or Sesha. He could see the fury behind Daisan's facade of control.

"Master Daisan, we underestimated the strength of the chosen and of Utori. The fault lies within the three of us, but I believe that there is still time to rectify our mistake." Lycoris explained.

"Strength, wisdom, and honor." Daisan smirked in disgust. "Are these not the credos of your people?"

He looked from Sesha to Tacere to Lycoris. His face turned from dark amusement to unveil the searing anger beneath. His eyebrows furrowed and his mouth twisted into a hideous scowl as he tightly grasped the arms of his throne. A dark aura of energy crackled around his body.

"Yet the three of you together were foiled by one weak little girl! I care not for your warrior's pride, your honor, or any other ridiculous virtues. Such creeds are of no use to me. You should do well to remember that you serve me and your concerns should be only to please me!" he roared.

The dark energy surrounding Daisan's body began to emanate through out the room. The three warriors fought against the dark waves not be swept away.

"My lord please." Sesha apologized quickly. "I live only to serve you. Please allow me another chance to prove that to you."

"We understand you." Tacere added, "Please my lord bestow us mercy."

"We will not fail you again." Lycoris replied.

Suddenly the dark energy engulfed the three of them. They all cried out in horrific screams as though they were being burned alive from the inside out. The pain they felt seemed endless when suddenly it ceased. They fell to their knees and hands. Their bodies singed and clothes tattered.

"See that you don't." Daisan glared "I have no patience for failure. Now go gather your armies and await my further instructions. Luckily, I still have use for the three of you."

"Yes, my lord." They responded gratefully in unison as they gathered their wounded bodies and proceeded out of the room.

Daisan's dark eyes glowed. This little misfortune had set his plans back. Daisan didn't fear these champions of Fate gathered by Kala. Even with the power that Kala would bestow them they would still not be any match for the power that he possessed. Yet Daisan knew that they would prove to be a nuisance. He had not yet gathered enough strength to track the three pieces of the Chrono Prism. While he had completely and fully aligned himself with the powers of the Asa Stone, it took more and more of his energy to use it. It had taken much strength from him to break free from the prison that Kala had placed him in. That would mean that he would have to gather energy from many other worlds and it would take time to gather the sufficient amounts needed.

"Kala you have always been the thorn in my side. It is time that I paid you a visit," he said a loud.
