Chapter 72
Tyrant
They quickly scattered apart from each other, but an invisible barrier blocked them both, causing the two young ones to crash into each other. Their fears have been answered, and now it's most likely going to eat them alive. They struggled to try and get out, but the barrier prevented them from even passing through with just a claw, not even a hard push or laser could break through it. The figure began moving a bit, breathing in and out, causing the ground to rumble with each gust of wind the figure brought out. The shadow that appeared inside the orb looked like a dragon, and was mostly shaped like a Selvakar, but it seemed tired. Was it just resting, or was it just beginning to wake up?
Meanwhile, the containment unit was containing one of Ytrian's nightmares, one that she wished that did not do what he did. There was no telling who or what it was to the duo, but there was one thing for certain that came across in their sense. If the Sevaeric had to contain something, that would've meant that it was something very vital or important. Either way, there is also the possibility that this could be their most hated enemy, next to the Sevawings that Vulcan apparently revealed.
The figure began to illuminate a hazy red light, striking fear into the two children as they stared. Suddenly, the barrier broke, and they could move again, but that would not help the fact that the figure was about to unleash devastation to the whole ship. The rumbling was getting intense, almost like an earthquake; while the figure inside the containment unit was trying to break free with deadly blows. It began roaring, screeching, and the unit was immediately flustered with bright flashes and flames. Whatever the creature was, was about to go on a rampage. Phaydera and Vulcan decided to try and cower under the consoles on the sides.
Suddenly, there was a great explosion, one that lit up the entire room, as the barrier for the creature was shattered into pieces. They could see the creature in the first time ever, but if they were found, they would surely die. The two were unsure about where it was at, but then when they heard his growls and saw his legs; black plated armor with dark clouds exerting and being controlled by his will. Phaydera was not sure about this, although Vulcan began to recognize the figure quite well, knowing his legacy. The Selvakar stopped walking forward for a second, as his rear legs tilted towards them. They were not sure about where he was looking, however. He called them out with a loud voice; "Daughter of Ytrian... I sense you... Come on out!" The tyrant exclaimed, forcing loose objects under the consoles to be pulled right to him.
The Selvakar had a ghastly look, with the plated armor still on him; as he was still in the device that the Sevaeric installed on him. Only his eyes, front and rear paws, and the bottom sections of his tail was visible to them. The tyrant gave a scornful look at the two, causing them to stagger back and fear for their lives. His glowing orange eyes and mostly black skin looked somewhat decent. Although, the end of his tail, was almost like Phaydera's; containing a stinger that was like a natural attachment for Seva or Selva alike. This was definitely not good. Would they have to fight the one who saved them in the first place?
"A Sentient and my granddaughter? Together? What has the world came to, while I was gone?" The tyrant spoke, with a joking tone. "One moment, I was now alone because all betrayed, and then our enemies are teaming up? Has the humans really gotten that powerful?" The tyrant asked. Phaydera was still confused, due to him saying that she was his granddaughter. Phaydera whimpered slightly, and backed away from the large Selva, but then was immediately pushed to his front paw, as his claws trapped her under his paw and the child was held under his might. "I'm sorry, sentient... If you were friends with my daughter, I regret to take her away from you, thin lizard. You are not going to lay one spell on her." The tyrant said, seeming to protect Phaydera from her newly met friend.
Suddenly there was a high croak coming from the door. Suddenly, Hypherion appeared, holding his halberd tight and steadfast. The wall was them deatomized and it revealed a whole army, full of the Supremacy's soldiers. "Slippery little pieces of flesh..." Hypherion angrily said, as he walked forward. "You had to release Gevatl, didn't you?" He asked, being at a standstill, and exchanging glances with the Selva. "No matter. Either you submit for mercy, or we will strike you down."
Phaydera walked tried to say something, but was immediately interrupted by Gevatl's response. "Forget it. You are not hurting her, you are not even going to touch her. Nobody messes with my descendants. NOBODY." He scowled at the Sevaeric elite. The children were now fearing for their lives, but relieved that they got the planned weapon on their side. Hopefully Phaydera's grandfather could take them out, and escape. Hypherion quickly commanded his platoon to fire, and they did with no hesitation. Immediately, Phaydera could see a bullet of sheer death coming for her head, but suddenly, every thing turned a dark purple sight, seeing the scene and somehow having bullets pass through them, while Gevatl was taking all of the harm for them. The tyrant immediately spreads out his wings and gone onto his hind legs, casting an spell on the platoon. It was definitely not going to work, but maybe if he kept on doing it, then he could possibly kill them anyways. Although, without a warning, Hypherion interrupted his casting; jumping onto the back of him, and smashing his halberd on his head with fury. Gevatl did not seem to be affected, other than interruption, but then Hypherion was blasted away with ferocity as Gevatl sent a blast of dark energy. All affected soldiers who were hit by it, were now swarmed with dark energy, as the strength of their defenses was weakened down to the ground, and was then met with a flurry of blood and human gore. Hypherion, however was not being weakened. The Erilian eradicated the tyrant's dark magic from himself, and immediately went into a one on one combat, as the parts of Hypherion's comerades were scattered all across the floor.
"Phaydera..." Vulcan softly said to her as she looked distressed at the moment, knowing that their original plan was not going to work now. "I should've..."
"No. This is perfect. Now we can get out of this hellhole. Maybe come back to our own home now, instead of being the Sevaeric's tools." Phaydera responded, smiling. "Go on! Grandpa! you can do it!" She cheered on, until a voice on the intercom spoke up. Soon, everyone stopped fighting, and the children were cast out of the shadow realm that Gevatl possessed. A triumphant fanfare played within the intercom, and everyone who was still alive, payed attention to it.
This is Primarch speaking. As you all know, the termination program is going well. Soon, our reign will reach beyond the universe. Think of this, as merely a test. Now, to get to the gist of it, the program is now eligible to carry out the final solution for Giha. Our Judgement Days are currently under mass production, and within four days, all of them, will be wiped off of the face of the land. Our newfound victory against our old enemies will be just. Let their final days be reduced to nothing. This will become a new age, where we reign supreme. And on other news... All deforms will be executed at the same time of the launch of the nuke. This is due to the rising population of them, and their usefulness is limited. That is all.
Suddenly, Hypherion was aghast from the announcement, after it turned off. The Erilian was now being circled by Gevatl, as the human kneed down to the ground. "Oh, whats wrong, you cannot be loyal to your own king? What is it, he going to kill your loved one?" Gevatl taunted, pinning him down on the floor. "You ended mine. You Sevaeric scum don't understand our emotions. And now, you might finally know. Enjoy your demise, while it lasts." Gevatl angrily said, picking up both Phaydera and Vulcan from the ground, and teleporting down from the ship, while the Durmand barrier was active.
