Chapter 48
Resurrection
He came towards Akaz, opening his arms and wings openly. He had such a welcoming position, that it seemed like he did not care if he was shot in the back at that moment. He wanted to see him once again, after he thought that he was dead. "I missed you... C'mere, you lunatic Agusi.." Rhenka pleaded as e hugged Akaz. Akaz replied saying; "You too". Nesc was highly confused, all because two gods just saved two prisoners, one Templar, and one god. Ukona was not surprised, but Ytrian really never saw this dragon before, as the same with Equinox.
"We make a good team dont we?" Rhenka said while turning his neck towards Equinox. "Just like old times."
"Just like our relationship with each other." Equinox mentioned. "Its almost unstoppable... Nothing will ever get us apart." Rhenka nodded in return, and released Akaz from his grasp. Within seconds, turrets turned to Rhenka and began shooting at his back, trying to at least get a fatal hit on him, but it was no use, as his scales were very hard, and very durable. He instantly took control over the turrets, and they all exploded. He pulled out a slip of paper, as if he was a messenger or something, as he handed it to Akaz. "You really thought we would be gone?" Rhenka said as he smirked. "Oh and also, You Father on the other side wanted to tell you something."
Akaz noticed the letter was already open, and he carefully opened the slip of paper, empty but with only one small dot. His claws felt it, as it was pulsating with electricity, and he put it on the ground. "Perfect. Stand back people." Rhenka said while walking back to next to Equinox. Everybody took his advice and soon the microscopic black dot began unfolding, and soon Nanobots began constructing a giant drill, causing the drill to automatically go on. It drilled through the ground and Made a trap door that looked like the floor previously before it was destroyed by the drill. Vibrations were heard from below, and then the ground began shaking again in that area.
"Are you alright with a secret hideout in this place?" Rhenka asked. "It was the best we could do."
"Thank you." Feria calmly said.
"No problem." Equinox replied. "Besides, if you need anything we will be there. Always."
"You mean..." Nesc said. "You are helping us?"
"Yes, We will be with you." Rhenka stated.
Equinox had four orbs spiraling around her, and then a sphere of light appeared and shattered, revealing a huge Brownish gold dragon who was about double the size of Rhenka, and a slim one as well. She had many Dark orbs and Light ones as well, as it would circle around herself, as if she had a limitation. She smiled and crawled down the trapdoor, as it opened. She slowly traversed it like a snake, almost like the poles on the walls were little conveyors of springs. Soon she disappeared from their sight, and all five of them gone down the trap door, as the door closed itself once all of them were trough. Nesc then traversed the canyon with a simple blink, causing him to teleport right to the edge of the other side. Ytrian just flew and Feria used the walls, running on them like it was a conveyor. Rhenka teleported with Nesc. They all were almost not knowing where they were going, but luckily Equinox shone a light that made the whole cave navigable, making sure her son and his friends would be able to walk through without any problems or most importantly, not running into any walls.
Soon within minutes of walking endlessly, they were at the section where they would see something light up from the distance, and Equinox, standing so tall stood there and waited, while staring the the five walking through the cave. She started tapping her foot, being kind of impatient, which was very uncommon for the sentient, but she honestly thought that time is key in this situation. Both Rhenka and Equinox know of the recent raid from the Acron, and saw Akaz on the way to there, but this was surprising.
"Hurry up guys, we do not got much time before we find out, and possible tracking will get involved." Equinox complained.
"Fine" They all said in unison, as they all teleported because of Rhenka. They all were there, and saw the base of operations within the bottom of the ground. Equinox mentioned that there was scanning going on, and hurried over to a monitor slightly suspended off the floor. Soon, a high pitched notification was heard, and the monitor showed the whole schematics of the whole planet. It seemed like the whole planet was reshaped by the Acron, and the whole aerospace was locked down tight. Prisoners were highlighted in green, Guards, wardens and any cyborgs within the planet were marked red. Reinforcements were marked yellow, as some were there right now, but having a huge dispute with a whole armada right now. Nobody but Acron were near the prisoners, and it seems that the Cedran just got there. However, the map shown something amazing. Out of nowhere, a stream of reinforcements gone through, as a straight line, and at the same time the red markers disappeared, they were shook terribly. It sounded like a jet just broke the sound barrier, and blurred their vision as well. The map then changed from grey to Red instantly, and then they teleported randomly to the surface.
Equinox did not want them to be seen, so she made one of the orbs dissipate into the spell, and they gone back to where they previously were. Equinox readied for what she was about to experience as she appeared before a circle of Cyborgs. They all aimed for her, as they all were constantly saying; "Stand down!". Equinox did not show any signs of resistance, but was ready to do something that they could not, no matter what they made. With ease, Equinox made everybody still, making the land around them only black and white, and sometimes grey. What used to be golden and brown was now a endless limbo. Soon Equinox turned from gold to grey, then darkness rose from the edges of her feet, and a blast was expanded, and erased everyone who touched the expanding dark ring, and every cyborg was gone, as she looked around and saw nobody, no living or mechanical soul.
"Hah.. Unlike Raleigh back in time..." Equinox scoffed. The land around them turned into normal colors, and time flowed again. She sighed in relief as she knew that even that time in the void did not affect her skill at using her abilities. She stood on all fours, examining herself, just in case they stuck something to her before she stopped time. She looked around with her long, but flexible neck, as she only saw the land around her. In her mind, the land around her was not so bad, as the buildings did not really look too bad, and the air was still bearable. It was so long and durable. Nothing apparently, as she teleported back to base.
Equinox
I finally got through the thick ground while teleporting, and came back across my son, and some of his friends, who were currently dazed from the hologram. I wanted to ask them why they were, but I was afraid the blue looking knight was going to do something as an reaction. The raptor gazed at me with concern, as she pointed right at my left leg, wanting me to look at it, suggesting that there was something near my left elbow, so I rechecked it once again, and there was a red light shining, as it flickered rapidly. The device began surprising me, as it would blink on and off so fast, that it was almost like one of the explosions of the sun. My mind sparked back up, and my claw quickly seized it and pierced it with extreme pressure. The device was now no longer operational, but it still remains as a piece of debris that can be reconstructed for later use. I picked it up with my long and sharp claws and put it on the platform.
"What is wrong?" Feria asked. "Aren't you happy to see your precious sons once again?"
"Yes, about that, we just found out that he inherited the powers of Arinias. We were hoping to help him get it down but-" I replied.
"It is okay, I am very good at it." Akaz interrupted.
"No you are not..." Nesc retorted. "You almost killed me with it!"
"Well that was because you were hunting me down okay!?" Akaz argued.
"Oh my freaking god..." Feria face palmed over the excessive bickering. "Not this again!"
"Please help these kids..." Ytrian said. Both of them gone head to head, trying to push each other over, as Akaz was struggling to keep his ground, the blue knight was actually winning against him. It was just embarrassing for me and Rhenka, for a child that we raised ourselves, to be out powered by a human. I then was irked, and then ended up breaking up the fight, using telekinesis. The ability caused them to float suspended in midair, and become frozen, not with ice, but with my energy. Everything was still, the one being highly hated, their mouths. The Raptor named Feria laughed as she did it so hard and fell on her back. Ytrian stared at them with her cold eyes. However, Rhenka was beginning to growl, as I knew that was something near, and close, moving to our position. I began walking towards the now clicking sound from the direction of the tunnel, and my suspicion told me that it was the Acron, walking in and confirming their theory.
One of my light orbs gone through and shot through the cave, making it light up fast, and quick, and all we saw was one person. He did not seem like the red plated, biped cyborgs we meet so many times, but he had nothing but he was covered in it. My legs were getting shaky, and the others were ready to kill as well, so I lunged at the one person, as my arms seized him by what I think was his center, and pinned him down with aggressiveness. I felt so out of character as some thought myself was very calm and welcoming in general, but now My mind is like something random, you could not expect it.
My claws were itching to kill this stranger, but then it whimpered and said; "Please... Do not hurt me...". It felt so sincere as I tried to check for any deception, but there was no sign found. He was practically losing all hope, so I let him go. The people behind me were yelling, screaming why I did that, but in my mind it was the right thing to let him have a word. He stood up and thanked me, then walked towards our little hideout, as I followed him. He walked like a crippled man with a cane, and almost fell about three times before he reached the floor that Akaz was standing on. He then got so weak, that he leaned on his leg, as it stood as tall as a short tree, and my son bent over his head, to examine him further from a range.
"There is a huge prison holding a bunch of us..." The stranger said. "They killed... So many..."
"We will break them out. there is nothing we cannot do." Rhenka said.
"You do not understand, they can nullify anything that is outside your physical ability... Its impossible for any of the tribes to succeed..." The stranger informed.
"Well then, destroy the source and then we can free them." Akaz rephrased. "Its not like we faced this situation thousands of times before, right?"
Lets go, 2 more to go before I complete the challenge, but this is not over, as this might be 200 chapter over time. Thanks for all the support you gave, and I happily accept it with open arms. I just feel so relieved that I did not do bad with this, as I thought I was going to choke on this one, but I did well! Well, I will see you on the next one! -Keizion-
