Chapter 5
-----
Gourry is running, running in the woods, running from someone that is after him, someone that keep calling for him, begging him to stop, to listen, but Gourry never stopped, he just keeps on running from his persuader, that is until he accidentally hits a tree that was in his way, this is the opportunity that Gourry persuader needed to catch up with him, and its Lina Inverse.
"Gourry please, let me help you!" begged Lina as she got close to him, but Gourry just push her hands away.
"You, you? Why should I listen to you? I was always there for you! I've protected you from every danger! I even put my life on the line for you! But you keep on treating me like crap! I thought you were my friend, but to you I'm nothing but an object that holds the sword of Light, that you want so much!" yelled Gourry, with eyes full of emotional pain.
"That is a lie Gourry!" cried Lina "you must believe me!"
Suddenly an earthquake occurred, creating a crater in witch Gourry has fall in to.
"GOURRY!" yelled Lina as she jumped to catch Gourry's hand, but she had failed.
"Why couldn't you love me?" yelled Gourry falling down the precipice.
-----
"GOURRY!" Cried Lina when she got up from the strange sofa she was in, she had a horrible nightmare, and she was sweating like hell.
"Miss Lina?" said a new voice. It's Amelia and near her was Zelgadiss. Lina looked around to see if she could find Gourry, but she rememberes again what Gourry did to her and to her friends, but she also remembers seeing a red head guy and a blond girl. Suddenly she notices that she is in a strange room were the wall look like to be made of metal. Then she finds the red head guy setting in an also strange chair and in from of him there were some strange buttons, and near to him there was a strange woman with green hair and dressed up like a maiden.
"She's awake Kain!" informed the green haired girl.
"Ok, thanks Canal!" Kain got up from his chair and finally he came face to face with the great legend herself, Lina Inverse. "Welcome Lina Inverse."
Lina looked at the stranger, she notices that his eyes are just like Gourry's. "Who are you people?" Asked Lina. "And where we are?"
"Yes, and you seem to know a lot of us, especially Lina." said Zelgadiss.
"My name is Kain Blueriver, and this is Canal Wolfield."
"AND I am the main holographic computer of the lost ship Sword breaker! You have forgot to tell them that Kain!" replied Canal.
"She's what?" asked Lina, Amelia and Zelgadiss at the same time, confused.
"Well……" Started Kain trying to figure out how to explain this to people from a distance past. "It is very complicated to explain, so don't mind her."
"And what is this Sword Breaker, lost ship thing?" Asked Zelgadiss
"Simple dum-dum! It is a space ship" said Canal.
"Who are you calling dum-dum?" Growled Zel, ready to unshield his sword, but Amelia stopped him.
"And what is Space?" asked Amelia.
"Don't you people know anything?" murmured Canal "it's like this……"
(Ok, lets past this part about Canal explaining about space, we don't feel the need of writing about it)
"How about we have some dinner? You people must be very hungry!" said Kain.
"Sure, whatever." Said Lina not very thrilled about food like she usually would. This worried Amelia and Zel very much, they still remember when Gourry was kidnapped, Lina almost didn't eat because how worried she was of Gourry, she acted like everything was ok but it was obvious that it wasn't. Of course she would never admit that because of her accursed pride.
Suddenly and explosion was heard, Zel Amelia and Lina had their hands ready to launch a spell, but Kain stopped them. "No wait! It is just Millie."
"Millie?" asked Lina.
"Yeah, she is the blond girl who was with me…." said Kain.
"And she is crazy! Every time she cooks something she has to blow up the kitchen!" added Canal.
Lina and the others looked at them with a sweat drop.
-----
"Yum, this food is great!" said Amelia.
"Yes is true!" agreed Zelgadiss "it is the best meal I had in years."
"HOHOHOHO, but of course! I am the best in the Universe!" said Millie, very proud of her self.
Millie has made 33 different plates for Lina and her friends, because she learned that Lina has an appetite that could feed 10 armies. But all was in vain, Lina only eat 10 plates, it is the same has saying that she didn't eat anything.
Lina was too much disturbed to be concerned about food, and so she had decided to know the true. So she punches the table. "Alright, just who are you people? Why were you attacking Gourry? And what is this strange place? You people have a lot of explaining to do!"
"How rude!" protested Millie "WE did save your life!"
"Calm down Millie!" said Kain, making sure that Millie wouldn't put out her gun "I think she is right, we own her and her friends an explanation. But let's talk in another room."
In another room.
Kain Millie and Canal had lead the Slayers gang into another room witch looked like a living room, Kain looked at Lina and the looks she had in her eyes informed him that she is demanding a lot from him, Kani was choosing the proper words to explain all of this, because what he has to tell will be hard for Lina and her friends to believe. "Well then, what I'm about to say will shock you all or you won't even believe in it, buy you all are in the future, millions and millions of years from you time."
"The f-f-f-f-future?" gasped Amelia.
"Millions of years from out time?" repeated Zelgadis in a chocking tone of voice.
"if that is true, then how did you guys managed to travel in time? Was it with magic?" asked Lina.
"No." responded Kain. "Humanity has evaluated a lot, so much that they have learn the art of time traveling."
"That would explain about of a lot of differences I see around here." Said Lina
"And the universe is being rule by an organization called The Horde´" continued Kain " it is a crime syndicate that conquers all the planets they find, after they find one they pass into action, eliminating all of their habitants, and when they are done, they joined the planet they have conquered for their collection of lost worlds. If by any chance some of the habitants of the conquered planets stay alive, the Horde would, or kill them or turn them into slaves."
"My God" whispered Amelia in terror.
"That is despicable! They conquer worlds for their own amusement?" cried Zel.
"The Mazokus are angels compared to the Horde." Said Lina "But why is all of this has to do with me?"
"According to the legend, only Lina Inverse was the only one that has managed to defeat the master of the Horde. But before she could have a chance to destroy him, she was betrayed by some one she trusted a lot and ended up dead." explained Canal.
"And that traitor is the 2º in command of the Horde" added Kain "the funnies thing is that nobody never seen the Master of the horde in person, only on monitors."
"Who is the Master of the Horde?" asked Amelia.
"His name is Bastion." responded Millie.
"Bastion?" asked Lina, not believing what she just heard.
"What's that?" asked Zel.
"That's impossible!" cried Amelia "Miss Lina has destroyed him!"
"Bastion has managed to survive Lina's attack and created the organization." said Canal. "The planet that was known has Earth is now his headquarter planet. There is nothing there but metal and machinery habituating in that planet"
"What?" cried Lina in shock.
"You mean……all our friends……our homes lands……" Said Amelia has she landed on her knees, trembling. But Zel walks to her and put his hands on her shoulder, trying to make her feel better.
Lina is incredible disturbed herself, never in her life was she worried about the future, but now, the future sounds like a living nightmare.
"Now wait a minute here" said Zelgadiss "you said the Lina was betrayed and ended up dead. But who is this traitor?"
Kain knew that he would have to tell them the true, no matter how hard it will be for them to believe in it, because they must understand that they will need to believe in him so that this evil that is been haunting the galaxy for many generations can end once and for all. "I will tell you who it is, but I'll warn you, it will cost you, a lot."
"Then tell us already!" demanded Zel, he had the idea that it was that Mazoku he hated so much, Xellos.
"The traitor" signed Kain "is called Gourry Gabrieve."
"WHAT!" all the Slayers gang has yelled, they were so shocked to see that their old friend had tried to kill them, but now they have discovered that he is the 2º commander of a dreadful organization that has made so many suffer.
"YOU ARE LYING!" Yelled Lina, with the actions of trying to beat the crap out of Kain, if Zel didn't stopped her. "Gourry would never hurt any innocent, you are lying!"
"Lina for heavens sake, calm down!" ordered Zel.
"But Miss Lina is right!" said Amelia standing up "Mr Gourry is to golden hearted to turn himself into evil!"
"And besides, you all said that we are million of years behind our time! It is impossible for Gourry to be alive now!" added Zelgadiss.
"Bastion has made an agreement with Gourry." Said Canal "He said that if Gourry could kill Lina inverse, he would give him eternal life! That is the main reason why Gourry become a traitor!"
"That is a lie!" yelled Lina in disbelieve "I know Gourry, and he would never do such a thing. I trust him!"
"Then explain us why he was trying to kill you?" replied Millie. "You know that we are telling the true, Lina Inverse, but you can't handle accept the true."
"SHUT UP!" yelled Lina, letting her anger taking the best of her, and preparing a fire ball, but Zel has managed to stop her again.
Suddenly an Alarm is heard. "Canal, what's going on?" asked Kain.
"Its battle ships from the Horde, they are approaching at all speed.
"Quickly to the control room, we must run."
Canal has disappeared and Kain and Millie run out of the room to the control room, leaving Lina Amelia and Zelgadiss alone. Amelia and Zel looked at Lina and saw that she is still trembling for what Kain has told her. Amelia walked a little closer for to calm her friend, but Lina has put up her usual Lina-self face when she turns back to Amelia and Zel. "We better go check this out! I still don't trust this guy, but it looks like we have a fight in our hands."
"All right." Said Zel in a calm voice, then looks at Amelia with the looks saying that is better not to disturb Lina with all of this that they have learned now.
And all 3 ran to the room where Kain and the others were.
-----
Kain and the other are in a drag now. The "Sword breaker" is surrounded by millions of star destroyers of the Horde, each one of them ready to shot at any time.
"So many….so many……weird transports´." said Amelia.
"It is called Ships." corrected Millie.
"Canal, how are our weaponry?" asked Kain. "Do we have enough energy on the ship to fight these star destroyers?"
"No Kain." said Canal in a defeated tone. "We used almost all off our energy for time traveling, and our weaponry is at least at 15. The only thing we have on 100 is the Psycho barrier and the light speed."
"What is the Light speed?" asked Lina.
"Is when we can make our ship run in an incredible speed, and things like that!" answered Canal.
"But can you used to get us out of here?" asked Zel.
"Yes, but the problem is that the other ships also have it." Said Kain." and they can used to catch us."
"Then the only thing we have to do is simple." Said Lina in the matter of fact. "We have to create some sort of diversion to distract these ships, while we make a quick run for it."
"And how do you expect us to do that?" asked Kain, almost being sarcastic.
"You said that you have some weapons on the work here! You could use them to make a distraction."
"Hum, I see your point." Said Kain. "And I believe it is the best option we have least. Ok Millie, on my command start shooting!"
"Ok!" said Millie, very excited.
"Kain, one of the star destroyers are stabling contact!" warned Canal.
Suddenly one of the monitors of the ships are making some sort of image, and finally it had appeared a bald man dressed in a black military general outfit. "This is Commander Duron!" said the man in the monitor, in a commanding tone. "Surrender your self Kain Bluriver, and your life will be spared!"
"A New commander?" replied Kain. "Now there is nothing new. The Horde is always killing their commanders, when ever they fail on a mission."
Amelia was once again caught in surprise. She had thought that she had seen a lot of cruelty, especially the cruelty she had saw when her mother died, but the Horde was really despicable. Looks like they only live for dead, even if it is the dead of one of their members.
"Laugh all you want, Kain, but you will be surprised, you shall see who is accompanying me!" Said Comm. Durom has the image of the monitor faded away.
"NO, is the Dead Star!" cried Canal who had tracked the Dead star in her sensors.
"Damn it!" cursed Kain.
"What is the Dead Star?" asked Zel.
"It is the Hordes most powerful ship!" answered Millie, trembling in fear. The Death star is the most powerful ship of the Horde, it has the form of a bat, and it is gigantic "And HE is probably in it!"
"W-who?" asked Lina but she is deeply afraid to know the answer.
"Gourry!" said Kain.
"Kain we have problems!" cried Canal. "Our weapons are not responding, like if some force is jamming them!"
"Are they doing it?" asked Zel looking at the monitor seeing at the Death star. But before Zel could be answered, a new image is forming on the monitor again.
"Kain, the enemy is trying to contact us again! And this time is coming from the Death Star." warned Canal.
"It must be him!" said Kain in a very serious and hateful voice.
"It has been a long time, Kain Blueriver." Said the voice of the image that was forming in the monitor.
Lina gasped when she heard the voice. It is a voice she knew from her heart, but sounded so cold, and evil.
"Not long enough to see your ugly face, Gourry Gabrieve!" replied Kain.
And finally Gourry appears on the screen, all the Slayers looked at shock to their friend, he was still young, and still has his long blond hair, and he was all dressed in black with a black overcoat, and his eyes, his eyes are not the gentle caring confused eyes that the gang knew for so long, his eyes were more cruel, full of anger.
"How did you find us?" asked Kain.
"Simple little one!" replied Gourry with a smirk in his mouth. "I don't know what you have done, but you were operating something that unleashed a great energy, so big that it was so easy for me to trace it, and I found you.
"Kain, he must be talking about our time machine." whispered Canal to Kain.
"Now its time for……" Gourry stopped when he finally notices the Slayers gang, he was surprised at first, but his face turn back to his evil self again, and with an evil grin in his face, and then directed his looks to the shaking Lina. "I finally found you, Lina Inverse. I knew I would find you some day, so that I could kill you, once and for all!"
Linas heart felt like she was having a heart attack when ever Gourry said that he wanted to kill her. "Please Gourry! Don't do this!"
"But I want to. And when this is over, you will be wishing that Phibrisio had killed me when he had the chance." replied Gourry very coldly as his image in the monitor faded away.
Lina landed on her knees with her eyes watering, she felt like her life was being destroyed little by little. "Gourry…….."
To be continue……
Ramon: Is Gourry evil or what?
Sunny: I'll say, he is one bad ass dude.
Air Jay: That's not fair! I wanted to be the bad guy.
