Chapter 5: Dark Watcher and Ebalon's Chosen one

"The 6 Chosen Ones? And what do you mean about my sis condition?"—the redhead asked when they have their eyes on the priestess.. "Yes, I think your sister have a very close relationship with the 6 Chosen Ones."—the priestess asked the team to sit down to listen to what she have to say, then she turn to Elsword. "Do you remember when we carry your sister outside of the volcano after she passed out?" "Yes, why?"—the redhead asked back. "When you were carrying her, I felt the fire inside her heart is stronger than the time when we were on the vehicle. Second, normally when someone touch the fire El, they will be burned immediately even if I cast a spell on them to prevent it. But your sister is an exception, her body and soul did not burn, but instead, the fire from the El got fused into the fire in her heart. Do you know what this mean?"—a though then crossed the redhead mind. "You mean…..Elesis is…."

"Yes, Elesis is the Chosen One of Rosso-the master of fire."—then a sound of "WHAAAAAAAT!" can be heard all over the mother ship. "But I still not sure if she is the Chosen One or not, we will have to wait until she wake up. That done for Elesis, now is you, General Add."—then all the attention turned to the general, who have been quiet for the duration of the conversation, still with a calm expression on his face. "Like I said before, light is a peaceful element, but even so, if one was to touch the light El, they will turn to stone in an instant. But you didn't—"

"Wait wait wait, hold on a minute! Back then when Banthus touch the light El, he didn't turn to stone either!"—the elf cut off. "Because he was wearing a special glove on his arm back then when he touch the light El. Demon is a greedy race, and clever at the same time, so those Hunter scum must have created a special device that let them touch the Els without being affected from the information they got from the demons."—the general explained. "So you, general, must be one of the 6 Chosen Ones, but I'm not sure which element you are. Because in the 6 elements, there are 2 special elements: light and dark. They are special because those 2 elements can nullify each other, unlike the other that can only nullify the weak element. I'll put it like this: water will wipe put fire, but fire can burn earth and everything on it, earth can stop the wind, and wind can have control over water (those cyclone thing that occur on the sea for example), that is how everything in the world work, one thing can harness or being stronger than other thing, while being weak against another one. But light and dark can completely nullify the opposite, they are like arch-enemy to each other. So I'm not sure you are Solace or Ebalon Chosen One."

The commander deck then fall into silent, too many things happened and their brain need time load all the new information. Then the general decided to break the silent atmosphere. "Then there is only one way to find out whether I'm Solace or Ebalon Chosen One."—then he put up his hologram screen. "The Els will be at the place that have special environment respective with their element, correct? We already got the light El, so only thing left to do is to find the dark El."—then he pointed at a location on the hologram map, name Fahrmann's Peak. "During the Great war, this place was the first to suffer from the demons attack. Every single villager got slaughter, our Ara was the only survivor."—the other gasped upon hearing it. "After the demons got defeated, that place became no more than a waste land, and the land there got heavily infected by demon's dark energy. The 'Vanguard' unit that is currently station there said that they saw some demons lurking around that place."

"Demons? But I though the gate was sealed for good!"—the redhead yelled. "If one can't go through the main gate, they will surely find the other ways around. Look like the demons have found some crack of Time&Space, and using it to get back to Elrios."—the Vice Commander smirked. "So tomorrow, we will send a troop there to investigate. Both of you rookies will come along, contact Chung and Ara because we are going to need Chung for analyzing and Ara knows that place like the back of her hand."—then the general turn the 2 navigators. "Aisha, Eve, tomorrow you are coming with us so be prepared." "Yes sir."—than the lilac hair girl start to squeal "Finally I'm getting some spotlight!"—the silver hair girl sighed in response, "I still don't know why you like going to the frontline so much…"

Then all of them retreated back to their room. The elf took a shower, the lilac and silver hair girl prepare necessary stuff and equipment. The redhead paid a visit at the lab to tell Chung about the following day investigation. The lab is still a big mess as always.

Then the morning come, the 9th Sky Division ships have reached the Fahrmann's Peak and landed near the camping site of the Vanguard unit that currently station there. The investigation team then proceed to meet with Helputt, the leader of the Vanguard unit. Then the redhead heard someone calling for his name.

"Oi! Over here Elsword!"—it was Lowe that calling for him. "Hey, long time no see pal."—the brown hair started to mess with the redhead hair. "Hey, I don't see Elesis anywhere, where is she?"—the redhead then explained what happened to his sister. The brown hair just silent for a moment, then returned to mess with the red hair. "Cheer up pal, if it someone else then I'll be worry, but this is Elesis we are talking about." "Thanks Lowe, those words really does cheer me up." –the redhead thought to himself.

"Long time no see son! How long has it been?"—the White Colossus patted the scientist head. "1 year 9 months 21 days to be exact dad, and please stop patting my head like that, I'm not a little kid anymore! And everyone is looking!"—the blondie said while trying to escape from his father family head pat. "As long as this old man still alive, you will still and always be my little kid."—the head pats just keep coming like there is no tomorrow. "Umm…Colonel Helputt, we can save the family head pats for later, now please lead us to the place where demons have been sighted."—the Vice Commander advised, then the blondie prince gave him a thumb up "Nice timing Vice Commander."

The White Colossus leads the investigation team and his troop to an entrance to a cave. "This is the place where we last saw the demons. The detector record show that a high level of dark energy is inside this cave."—then the troop proceed inside the cave. The cave is filled with gloomy air, an ominous feeling started running down their spine as they move deeper into the cave. After a while, they reached an open space. The blondie prince and his dad use their cannons to shot a cluster flare to light up the area. The troop then separated to scout the area. "I remembered this place."—the black hair girl said while scouting the area with the general. "Me and my brother, we used to come to play hide and seek here with the other children in the village." "Do you remember anything else?"—the flowy hair girl pointed at the direction diagonally to them. "There was another passage, the adult always warn us not to go in there, so we never knew what inside."—just like Ara said, there is another passage. The team kept on moving in further. Until they reach another open space, another cluster flare is fired to light up the place. There, they saw stairs going up leading to place look like an altar. "The dark El must be up there, but where is the-"

"DEMONS!"

A soldier in the team shouted, then they see hoard of hideous creatures coming out from other passages near the stairs. "All troops! Prepare for battle!"—the general and the White Colossus said in union. The troop started to form a circle around the stairs to the altar, to prevent any demons from getting the dark El. Silent filled the air, the other side could hear even the breathing of their enemies. Then an order, break through the silent. "CHARGE!"-2 sides engage in battle, weapon clashing sound filled the cave. The battle was intense, if one was to describe this battle, only "a miniature Great war" can fit the blank.

"Secret Art-Killing Howl!"

"Kill that girl!"

"Lightning Storm!"

"Kill that girl too!"

"Heaven's Fist-Pressure!"

"And kill that girl too!"

"Carpet Bombing!"

"Second though, JUST KILL ALL OF THEM!"

"Electron Barrage!"—5 punches were landed on the demon that was commanding the rest. "Next time, make up your mind before giving order." "General! We will deal with these things here! Go get the dark El!"—the lilac hair girl shouted. The general then dash up the stairs on his dynamos to get to the dark El. "Isn't it a little bit strange? If those demons have already found out that the dark El reside here, why didn't they take it before we come? Time&Space cracks don't have anything to do with the dark El as Time&Space doesn't have any relationship with the 6 Master of El."—the general thought to himself. "I'll think about this later, right now, I have to get this thing out of here."—then he grabbed the El and return to the battlefield. Just like the priestess predicted, the general having no difficult in holding the El, but it still not clear that he is Solace or Ebalon Chosen One yet. "I got the dark El! Now let get outta here!"

"There are too many of them! We can't open a path!"

"Leave that to us!"—the lilac hair girl shouted, then she signal Eve. The silver hair girl nodded then summoning a big spear.

"Plasma Cutter!"

"Assault Spear-Judgement!"

The 2 attack collided and wipe every single demon on it way, and open a path to the exit. The team escape along the tunnel while the general and Ara trying to hold back the demons to buy sometime. When they return to the first open space, they heard a loud roar, the roar echoed and causing the old cave to start dropping boulder. Luckily, a big boulder fell and blocked the path from the altar to the open space. "General! Ara! Hurry!"—the blondie yelled. But his voice was interrupted by another boulder blocking the only exit.

"Ara! Step aside! Electron Roundhouse Kick!"—the boulder then shattered into pieces after the kick. The duo finally got out of the cave safe and sound. "Are you okay general? Ara?"—the elf asked. "Nope, I'm not okay. My clothes are all dirty again!"—the general expressed. "So did you get the dark El?"—the general showed a small black jewel. "So this is the dark El huh? Not as impress as I expected."—then the ground started to tremble, like something huge is moving huge is moving under them. Every second passed, the ground started to tremble even more. Finally, the underground temple collapsed and a dark pillar raised. The dark pillar had many scales all over it body, and it look more like a living thing than an original dark pillar.

"What is that thing?"—some soldiers yelled at the dark pillar.

"Never expect that thing to be here."—the general said with a calm expression while staring at the dark pillar. "The terror of the Great war:

Dark Watcher-Drabaki"
