Thinking about doing a small little special when i hit chapter 20. A little leisurely and small lazy time that wont be canon in this story. And wont have battle scenes. Maybe even an moderate au?anyway lets get on with it shall we?

Chapter 19

Attacked?!

Nasod Dumpsite

Add's PoV

She isnt the nasod Queen for nothing kekekeke, im getting too excited. Her barriers are powerful and her attacks are just as strong. So this is the Queens power eh?

"Particle Prism!"3 of my dynamos create a triangular prism around my body. "Energy needles" She fired multiple energy blast with high piercing power. "Tch so you have something like thay eh?" I say as a few of the needles shattered my prism.

I flew into the sky to avoid the others but they home in on me. "Pulse cannon!" I fired small blast to counter hers canceling them out. I flew down aiming for a direct punch. She narrowed her eyes and then fired several beams at me pushing ne back.

She looked away before looking back at me, Oh? expecting backup are we? well i won't let that. I need her. "Pulse cannon" I fired them at the room causing ruble and rocks to fall down. She put up a barrier, tch i expected her to blast so i could find a opening. She is crafty.

I flew down to her and went for empowered kick. She put up another barrier but my kick shattered it in ine hit. I then went for a punch to her gut but felt something scrape my cheek.

I jumped back and touched my cheek. Blood, when did she... I jumped back to evade the black spikes thay came from the ground. When, how did she...no i need to counter! she's pushing me back! I charged at her and began a new technique.

I flew upward and activated my Nasod Armor. I also activated my EMP skill as well for 100% effectiveness and made 3 of my dynamos create a triangle. "Here have a present! Quake Buster!" I kicked the center if the triangle and shot out the blast.

She must have sensed it wasn't an ordinary attack because she flew away. The blast hit the ground and caused a small explosion followed by small purple geysers erupting around it. Seems like i went abit overboard, now there was a small fog.

I didn't see her after that. Were did she go, she can't escape me. I flew down and to narrowly dodge a black spike that came from the side of me. I dodged it and then felt an electric pulse shock through out my body.

"Wha-Wha?" I turned around and saw a small object sticking out my back. Wait i can't move! The mist cleared and she began walking toward me. I feel to the ground. How did this happen!

She opened her hand and created a light sword and stood over me with an emotionless face. How dare she underestimate me!

"Raaaaaaaaaaa" I activated my EMP field to get her off me and the taser. I got up and charged at her at which she flew into the sky. "I wont allow you leave after that!" I yell at her. She only looked at me before holding her hand out toward me and the other behind her to materialize a holographic keyboard.

"Photon flare" She fired a blinding beam at me. I had no choice but to cover my eyes. It even blinded my prosthetic eye she has tricks that's for sure. When the light was done i opened my eyes and saw she was gone. GRRRRAHAAAAAAAAA.

I flew down looking for her all over. How, How did she get away! She must be hiding here somewhere. I looked around but to no avail, she was gone. "That..." I punched the wall next to me breaking it.

"I will find you"

Return Planes

Eve's PoV

After teleporting i looked around for any other dangerous scanning. When i saw none i eased up. "Why did he need my codes" I mused aloud. Even if he was to obtain them, he would need a password that no one, not even the King could access.

But in the scenario my codes to be stolen i would essentially be in slumber. I walked around the planes before finally deciding to contact the King. "Yes my Queen?" He says and i begin to explain to him what happened.

"If that is the situation i ask you to come back to base. You are essential to the revival of our race so you must not take any damage." He goes offline before i could answer him. I set the cordinates for my private room to check up on Apple.

I teleported right into her room and walked over to the pod she rested in. She opened her eyes to greet me. "Sister..You seem disturbed.." She said in weak but worried voice. If if only she knew...

I gently place my hand on the pod. "It is ok sister, you must rest" She began to stir alittle before turning her head to me. "All i do is rest..but i shall rest now" Such obedience...

When we find a power source, i... i will save you Apple. Even if it means disobeying the King.

Altera Village

Night

Elsword's PoV

I can't sleep. i get up from my bed and put in my clothes. Im not sure why but something feels off tonight i can't quite put my finger on. I open the door to Rena 's room and saw Aisha with her in there.

They were sleeping together, how cute. I closed the door and walked outside. "even at night the sounds of drilling never ends." I say walking the streets with no destination. Times like this, feels pretty peaceful.

But i still rememeber. The demons have the El they stole from 2 years ago. Who knows what they are doing right now with it. The news is still being kept away from the general public and me, Aisha and Rena were told to keep hush hush about it.

We were to deal with Wally and they go after the demons but it still amazes me that the reasoning of fighting the demons was for the El.

I walked to Agatha's shop that was closed. It was to be expected, it is still night after all. While walking around i saw that mysterious man who i fought with. We walked toward each other staring each other down until we were face to face.

"You..." He said with a stern look. I kept a mutual face on since i wasn't really mad anymore since i don't hold grudges. "You recovered" I say looking at him head to toe.

"yea and i see your walking around at this hour" He says still keeping his guard up. "So ready to tell me why you attacked us" He then looked at his nasod arm.

"It is because of this thing" His arm?

"It was attached to me by nasods when they found me. Now sometimes i lose myself to it" He says opening and closing it. An arm with a mind of its own? Well i seen some crazy stuff so this can't be all that different. "Who are you anyway" I asked him."

"Raven, and you" He said and i told him my name

Then a explosion occured nearby us. I rushed over to the place it occured in with Raven following behind me.

When we got there were some large nasod that had seem to have dug up a hole to reach here. It was huge and it seem to not like ne and Raven since it charged at us after looking at us.

We didn't have weapons so it was bare handed again for me. It came rushing at us at whuch ne and Raven rolled out the way making it soar right past us. It stopped mid charge and came back at us, me specifically.

It charged its fist with ice and went for a direct punch. I ducked under and punched under its arm. I reeled back and jumped back, its arm was steel alright.

"This isnt a human, normal attacks wont yield any effectiveness" Raven said charging his nasod arm. The vents in it opened up making small fires come out. He clenched his teeth in pain, seems he can't endure it.

"We need weapons, but if we leave it will come after us for sure destroying some of the city in the process" I say looking at the nasod who began firing ice shards at us. "So what do we do then" Raven said evading then.

"Im sure my friends are coming." I said smiling. Raven looked at me skeptically. "And what if they dont who would they know." I looked at him and smirked. "Man who wouldnt hear all this"

Raven's PoV

This kid is pretty confident i must say. I fought this thing before but I need a blade. Sadly i left it back at the place i was staying at and i can't leave or it will follow me.

I looked over to Elsword. Why isnt he using his magic? is he not a magician? He hen jumped in the air and the large nasod zoned in in him. "Raven!" He shouted at me. I held out my arm and fired several fire blast at it.

It saw me and flew up evading them and going after Elsword. Elsword clasped and took in breath. "Burn away, Majestic spreading flame" He breathed out a crimson fire that fanned out and blew away the nasod back to the ground as well as burn it.

What kind if magic was this? high level magic? it had an incantation so it must be some kind if high level spell.

The nasod was scorched but still kicking since it got back up after a while and went for me this time. Heh dont underestimate me, i bested you already.

I jumped out the way and punched its arm with ne nasod arm cracking it. It then swiped its hand infused with ice but i jumped away. Elsword took the chance to kick the same spot i hit breaking off the arm completely.

We regrouped with each other. "Where's that backup huh?" I looked at him. "Right behind us" He smiled. "Wind blast!" I heard a voice and looked behind to see those same girls from before.

The blonde girl fired a arrow with wind with spiraling wind around it. The arrow struck or more like went right through its chest. It began to twitch before falling to the ground motionless. The face light also went out.

The girls came with some of those large rats as well, Adel i believe one of their names was. "Els! you ok?" The purple haired girl and the other ran up to him checking him for any injuries.

The blonde haired girl...she looked so much like Seris...it hurts to look at her. Im sure she was dead. i saw it with my own eyes, but this girl was a spitting image of her.

After they were dine inspecting him the three of them walked up to me. "What" I said crossing my arms. "Are you normal now or..." The purple one said. "He's ok now Ai, introduce yourselves" Elsword said.

"Im Aisha, dont make any trouble if you would. I would highly appreciate it" Shw said bowing and Then the blond one came next. "Im Rena, i wish we dont have fight again" She bows as well. Her hair flows down alittle and i see long ears.

An elf? so she is not Seris after all...Im abit happy but a bit sad as well.

After a while we went back to Adel's house since he is the head of this town. We were all inside his living room and began discussing what happened. "So Adel anything you wanna tell us?" Aisha asked first.

"Im not sure what to say nasods are supppst to be asleep. The only active ones should be the small ones." He said nervously. "They also never attacked us before. They did not even know we were here before" I then decided to step up and speak.

"That same nasod attacked my aiship before as well but there was two instead if one. One fire and the one that was destroyed" I said and Adel began to think if something. "This needs investigation" Elsword said finally. He got up from the couch and walked to the door. "Wait what of the Nasod you found earlier?" Adel said. "Resting" He said simply.

"We investigate later today after we slept and rested. i say at around noon" Aisha and Rena nodded and began to walk out with him. Elsword however stayed "joining us?" i nodded and he left.

I went to the room where i was staying un and layed down. Elsword, he's young but knows when to take charge. Those girls around seem to be close to him as well, they must be a team.

Anyway let me get my rest.

Altera Core

Dawn

King Prime's private room

King Prime's PoV

This is most interesting.

When i sent Leviathan to the Pongo's settlement, his transmitter shut down. It seemed like he was either destroyed or shut down. But this race was not known for fighting so them fighting Leviathan was highly unlikely.

Then there was the one who fought with the Queen. I cannot conclude he was the one who decommissioned Leciathan since the site he was recorded at was The Dumpsite and the Pongo settlement was too far for him to reach there and shut down Leviathan at the same time.

One one thing can be for certain. There are intruders here. We must find Q-proto-00 and P-001(Apple's code name i made up since her name seemed like a nickname)

I need to hurry the investigations. Eve is safe as long as she stays in the Core. P-001 will be most challenging to locate. She should have been with the Queen but was not found with her.

I went to the mic and spoke my orders. "Heighten the search for Q-Proto-00. All units will be on full search mode." I went looked at the pod. I must hurry before the virus gets to even me. No...i shall not allow that. I will rule forever

Later that Day

Afteenoon

Rena's PoV

Our small group went to the place known as 'The return planes'. Adel said we may find some clues there but when we made it there we were attacked by none other than the nasods.

There were drillers but a more moderate and stronger one than Wally's. There was also the large clunky ones but they were no problems since they were slow.

In the front was Elsword and Raven who served as front defence. I was behind them as back up and Aisha and Q-proto as support.

Elsword also got a new sword that i could tell he didn't like all that much but took it anyway since Agatha said she made it with him in mind. The sword was steel gray with white chain blades for an edge. It was essentially a chainsaw sword.

Me and Aisha couldn't help but laugh at him. He tried not using it but he is a swordsman at heart.

While exploring i saw a small cracked cavern with some kind of green slime on it. "Ew what is that..." Aisha says with a cringe face. Yea i would like to stir clear if whatever that is.

"You there!" We all went on alert when we heard a voice shouted at us. We turned back and was surprised to say the least. It was a girl that was very much identical to Q-proto.

She had a white dress with detached sleeves and had a symbol on her chest i guess that is her races insignia. "Who are you" Elsword stepped in front of us. "The nasod behind you needs to come with me" She brandished weapons behind her back"

Elsword stepped up. "Im guessing she isnt your sister?" Q-proto shakes her head no. "That, is the Queen. The new Queen Eve" She said. The Queen? and why did she say new Queen.

"If that's the case then i cant let you have her. She's with us." Elsword draws his sword and points it at her. The girl just keeps hee poker face but was still battle ready. "I got your back" Raven said going next to Elsword and he nodded. Huh? when did they become friends?

Eve charged both of them with flying spikes. Elsword and Raven parried the spikes and jumped out the way if a laser beam. I summoned my bow and began firing at her but a barrier was created behind her that blocked them.

"Electric stream" Aisha slammed her staff to the ground and a lightning surge can about and traveled to the girl. She saw it coming for her and flew to the skies evading it. "Motor spear!" I charged a arrow with my magic and shot it at the ground and it flew upward.

Soon it exploded and smaller magic arrows began raining down on her. She created a barrier to protect herself but the arrows eventually broke through. She flew away in time and fired several spikes at me.

The spikes were intercepted by Elsword and Q-proto? she had a black spiked blade in her hand. She held her other hand and the two nasods floating near her became two cannons and fired several blast at Eve.

Raven attempted a sneak attack but was blocked by a black spike that made him stagger back. Elsword went in close to her but she fired something and it hit Elsword. He skidded on the floor to stop twitching. "What the hell?!" He was being electrocuted!

"Ice wall!" Aisha created a ice wall between Eve and Elsword and Raven went to go get Elsword. Q-Proto raised her hand and black spikes erupted from the ground. Eve flew up and created a holographic triangle. "Energy needles"

The small nasods near Eve began to fire blast into the triangle and they came out as smaller but more precise blast. We all regrouped and Q-Proto created a barrier comprised of Black spikes creating a small fortress.

"She's tough..." Aisha breathed out. She managed to take almost everything we had. She isnt the Queen for nothing. "We, need to get her to the ground" Q-Proto said. "When she knows she can't dodge, she flies. We take out her flying and we can take her" Raven says.

"Ill cover the skies, Raven and Q-proto will be the ground assault. Aisha create a wall around the field of view if you can. Rena you fire a wind blast into the sky to help me cover it. After that cover Q-Proto." Elsword said and we all nodded.

At times like this Elsword is very much reliable. Its good thay he is leader.

3rd PoV

When the energy needles stopped, Q-Proto put down the spikes and everyone sprang into action. Elsword jumped to a higher platform and clasped his hands.

"Wind Blast!Rena shot a arrow infused with wind magic. Elsword jumped to higher platform and clasped his hands.

"Sing, scorching lanterns" Elsword fired several fire blast aimed at Rena's attack. When they came together, they created a heat wave that began to cover the area. Eve flew down to avoid getting burned. "Ice Wall!" the walls of ice surrounded them giving Eve less space to escape in case of emergency.

Q-proto created her black spike sword and charged similarly to Elsword along with Raven flanking Eve. Elsword drew his sword and came down going for an aerial assault leaving Eve with no alternatives, ir so they thought.

Eve raised her hand and activated her skill. "Plasmic bomb" Electricity gathered at Eve's body and then a bright discharge came off her stunning everyone. Due to the battle, the floor began to cave in and collapsed causing everyone to fall into the cavern.

With Elsword

"Argh...what the..." Elsword woke up some time after the fall. He looked around and felt something heavy on him. He found Eve was on top of of him and he was holding onto her. 'Must have thought she was ine of the others' She was also out as well. 'Where's everyone else i wonder' He thought laying back down.

With Aisha

"Owww my everything again..." Aisha groaned and looked around. She found Rena laying down on her side. "Rena!" She ran over to her and shook her to get up. Rena slowly opened her eyes "Mmm Ai? did we live?" Rena said groggy.

"Hopefully the others did as well..." Aisha said and helped Rena back up.

With Raven

Raven and Q-Proto had landed together and began looking for a way out. 'I would have even taken Eve...but her?' Raven thought with a sweatdrop. He didn't have a problem with her but she did stare and not even he could keep his composure.

Q-proto was feeling something, sadness she wasn't with Elsword and the others. But she was stuck with someone so she had a temporal meat shield at her disposal.

"I read Nasods are in the vicinity" She announced and Raven grabbed his blade. "Nothing is easy..." He and Q-proto began to walk down the tunnel.

Elsewhere

Altera Core

King Nasod made his way to Eve's room to tell her they may have found Q-proto's readings out at the return planes. "My Queen..." He opened the door only to find the room empty.

"No...NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!" The king Yelled through the small nasod monitor he used to get around since his size restricted him from such.

The King then went to the mic. "All Nasods, make a full search of the Queen she is at the moment missing!" He went off the Mic and began to watch the Nasods hurriedly go and search for the Queen.

"I wont allow this"
