Chapter 8
In the ritual siteā¦
"Akaz is missing. I just know it. I can feel it. Shouldn't I go there and try and breaking him out?" Rhenka asked Equinox.
"I do not recommend it. The warden there is someone who despises your kind, Dragons. How I know this even though the barrier is preventing me from doing scanning directly, is that some others go home and I can do that. One guard saw what he did to one man in less than a second. Its too dangerous. Hopefully he does not make him angry." Equinox said.
They both see the Prime sentient, in his human form holding a chain that was connected to Tyler's neck.
"What happened with you two this time!?" Equinox angrily said.
"He is short tempered. Dont worry, I will make sure he keeps it under control. If he doesn't, then I guess we have to torture." The Prime sentient said.
"Very well." Rhenka said while standing up. "But I WILL. hunt you down, and challenge you if you do anything that might risk his life."
"Ah lighten up Rhenka, he is tougher than you think. Besides, its very hard to kill sentients anyway." The prime sentient remarked.
"First off, let me ask you a favor." Rhenka asked. "If you see Akaz out of the occlusion zone, bring him here. He has been chosen to help someone get their daughter back."
"Can do." The prime sentient said.
exiting the site, he then exited the tower, but the voices from the tower start flooding their ears. The noise kept on interrupting their teleportation.
"If I win this I get Cera back. So, How hard can this be?"
"You do not understand what this is. This will test you in everything. Only a few ever passed the corrupted Equinox. Even if you got that covered, you still got about 17 floors of pure nightmares, quick timing, and possibility of death each and every second."
"So a more harder version of the big longneck test?"
"Yes and no. I can imagine Akaz being able, but Elise? just had dumb luck. She almost messed us up and taking us all out on a choice." Altayous said. "I remember now. Die by fire or die by stone. she almost chose stone, but luckily Eidolon rescued us before she made us all jump that path, and it was almost to the point where the walls would pierce our skulls and body. We were all mostly resistant to fire, but the chances of us surviving the stoning would be almost none, due to the high change suggesting that the rocks would shoot to the point where they could go through a mile of wall, even for a small pebble."
"I can get you through the fire, but this will take split second decisions, based on if Akaz is fire-proof or not."
Another conversation then echoed through the tower.
"Who is that Dragon?"
"I do not know, but whatever he did, he got overpowered. by him."
The sentence then made Tyler get a bit annoyed, but a bit shaky from the battle, he stopped, being reminded by himself because of anger this happened.
"Down with SIVA!" The guardians chanted, while all the tenno that died writing their battle plan when they are released from the tower. Then the prime sentient made a force field so that they couldn't hear, and then they teleported near Terrace.
"Well, you might as well keep your vermilion core inside you, so let me take you to the tower first, before I lock you up somewhere very safe." The unreal human said.
So they teleported and The sentient who is the human commanded Tyler to let the vermilion core fuse into him. After the process was done, the tower sank down into the ground. They quickly teleported to the surface, then did it again to the underground cave where he used to keep Tyler at.
"Stay here. I need to be on business." The sentient said.
"O-o-kay..." Tyler said while laying on the cold floor.
The sentient then teleported to the surface and headed for the Reron empire. Once he reached the gates, the gate guards did not let him in.
"I am sorry, I am not your enemy. I just need to speak to Gught for a second." The fake human said.
"GUGHT!? ARE YOU INSANE!? YOU ARE GOING TO GET YOURSELF KILLED!" One person on the ramparts said eavesdropping on the conversation.
"I am fine, dont worry about me. He cannot take me down. If he cannot take down Tyler when he is fused with the core, then he cannot beat me. Tyler tussled with him once."
"Fine, but you do not want to anger him too much." One guard said. "Name please before you enter."
"People who know me rarely call me Uitan." He answered. "The rest just call me a strange human."
The gate then opened and he calmly walked right in, acting purely natural. He shown no emotion, no fear, as he crossed the entrance. He looked up, seeing clouds and rain outside, when he looked straight, the place seemed lifeless, but inside most buildings, were people. The prison was just right in front of him now, and he teleported right near the zone, and walked through. Suddenly, he felt himself, losing any power he had with his original form. At this moment, he knew he had to be careful. He entered it, and saw Tlat standing there, ready to depart.
"Hello, do you know where Gught is?" Uitan said.
"Yes, and I am more than certain that he is done being alone for now. I will lead you to him." Tlat prompted.
So far so good, Uitan has already got a lifeline for him if anything goes wrong. Although he was beginning to slowly regret this, but he knew this had to be done for Rhenka.
"He is in here." Tlat said.
Uitan opened the door finding him with his gloves off, and slowly breathing with his eyes closed.
"Hello, Sir?" Uitan spoke while walking through the door.
"Yes? what do you want?" Gught inquired with a irked expression.
"Do you have Akaz and Elise?" Uitan asked.
"Yes, but they are released tomorrow. Unless you want to challenge me for him." Gught said. "Wait... I can sense some of the aura of vermilion. You know him. I might as well take a crack of taking him down for now."
"Agh, whatever, I just beat him, and I have beat him multiple times before." Uitan bluffed.
"Hmph. I doubt it. He would kill you." Gught scoffed.
"Then why am I standing here right now hmm?" Uitan asked.
"I do not know. You must be lucky." Gught answered.
Uitan could see dead bodies in that room with him in there. His heart sank and almost made him stutter, but he tried his best not to. Stuttering to him could mean that he could not get Akaz back for another day.
"Still, its like 12:46 PM, Can't you wait for something?" Gught asked lowly.
"I guess." Uitan said.
"Well good, because I was ready to sling this blade right at your neck." Gught said.
"Tlat, make sure that no prisoner escapes tonight. Here, I will give my gun to you." Gught handed the gun to him.
That gun in Uitan's eyes started flashing back bad memories. That gun would destroy anything with a explosion. That was the gun that murdered millions, even billions. He knew that it wasn't the prime minister of the Sevaeric, since he was there to stop him.
"You were at the top of the Sevaeric tower right?" Uitan asked.
Gught answered yes, and explained that he had a secret. So far, no one knows, even his parents do not know.
"I was not born from this kingdom. I was raised in two places, forest and where Rhenka was. We all hated him for everything. One time we saw him valuable, and decided to kidnap him and kill him, but a slow and painful death did not come, instead, it made him a LOT stronger." Gught explained.
"After about 2 months, a war between us and another planet awoke, and then came the prototype for a war mind. I saw he had it, the original prototype, the only one out there, and when the other planet gave it their all, Rhenka decimated it like it was nothing. For that, he also shot a laser directly at the planet, making such a loud noise, that It almost broke our ears. We all found it that they were all dead." Gught continued.
"If you see me as a murderer, go to Rhenka. He killed more than me." Gught said. "Please. just leave me. I do not want to talk anymore."
"Sure." Uitan answered.
At the Roran lab...
Code red.. A test subject has left the cell with lethal weapons. Evacuate immediately.
Eidolon listened carefully and placed his hand on the ground to see if he still had sonar. In fact, he did, and sensed a exit on the other side of the building. He put the holster of the sword hanging on his right leg. He quickly ran there, holding up his shield to make sure he did not get toasted by flamethrower turrets on the way in a hall. He did not get why they would do a warning, because he did not kill anybody, and was able to control the newfound power. He was walking now through another corridor, which had no weapons surprisingly, and he could see this facility. He saw others, being forced to be stuck here, before perfection. In his mind, he wondered about these people, who just came out of pods, just to be contained in another room. He continued on, and saw darts fly from the other side of the hall. He ran and slid with his shield covering his whole body, making sure that not even one dart lands on him. Then it saw the trap split into two and it revealed a cache. He sprinted towards it, and dug the shield into the ground, making sure any other traps would not hurt him. He opened the cache that said For Eidolon.
The contents revealed armor, He opened it, and all he saw was a bunch of others, pointing guns at him, and even flying vehicles were aiming at him. He then put it on quick as he continued on with full armor. The next section then surprised him with a turret, and he tried to dodge it, but he couldn't. It was just too fast for him. He focused on the one bullet speeding straight towards him, and it almost reached his hand. The bullet however began floating in midair, next to his shield. He then pushed it back and it sent the bullet flying straight towards the turret, and it became jammed, and the machine shut down.
"This is a miracle." Eidolon whispered to himself.
He then dashed at the door, seeing the light, but opening it revealed armies and aircraft with all guns pointing right to his face.
Arrest him!
He opened his shield from his arm and blocked each bullet that the army shot at him. He did not know what to do at the time, being surrounded and all, but he had a plan quickly, which he desperately needed. He then shouted; "stop!" and they started ceasing fire one by one.
"I did not kill anybody. I just got this, and the power was surging." Eidolon explained.
"It doesn't matter. you could be a major threat to us." A pilot spoke through a amplified voice.
"I do not kill innocent people. That's Raleigh's job." Eidolon stated.
"Who the living hell is Raleigh?" one soldier asked.
"Thief, a mastermind, a shadow wielder, and a overall strategist for conquering." Eidolon answered. "I saw him before, and he is highly capable even without today's technology."
"Fine. but do not try any funny business. Do not think that we are still onto you." One soldier from a tank said.
The longest chapter I did so far. Whoo, that was tiring. I am doing this at 5:30 to 6:21. But anyway, Akaz is released next chapter, and 7 people are getting released from the tower. Enter the trial towers.
