GL (GalaxyLight): Alright! Let's resume the story! This when Elsword and Elesis reveals themselves to their younger selves due to Young Elesis's knowledge.
Elsword: I did not expect her to find out so fast.
Elesis: well, she IS my younger self. Can you blame her?
Elsword: ...Probably can't.
Elesis: Didn't think so.
GL: Let's just focus on the plot now.
Elrios (Past)
Ship of Grand Demons (Scar's Ship)
After Elsword and Elesis were carried back to the Ship of Grand Demons before lifting off, Young Elesis tells them about what has happened to Elrios and the Twinsers after they woke up.
"Those monsters... Seeing them here in Elrios seemed like a horrible dream... It was all so sudden..." Young Elesis slowly explains. "Foul parasites from a somewhat planet called the 'Twinser Planet', in other words, they are aliens from outer space. Their planet was filled with despair and utter creepiness. Their purpose here was pretty obvious. They want to take all we hold dear in Elrios! Our land... Our home... Our very lives!"
"So that's why they looked weird and spoke odd languages. It was because we never seen those kind of monsters ever in this planet." Elsword understood.
"Sure... I think I understand the situation at hand..." Elesis says who is angry for some reason. "BUT WHY ARE WE IN A SHIP FULL OF DEMONS!? Not only that, the Demon General Scar is here as well! What is the meaning of this!?"
After waking up, the siblings from the present were shocked that they were in the Ship of Grand Demons with Scar inside as well. Elsword wasn't comfortable that they were here but Elesis however was the most uncomfortable. Seeing Scar alive, although he's from the past, makes her blood boil. She remembers the time where she and Elsword was ambushed by Scar in the past. Even though he's dead in the present, Elesis can't stop gritting her teeth at him.
"C-Calm down, I know how you feel but just let it go." Young Elesis shakes her hands. "You see, Scar didn't just threaten us... but he also saved us."
Elsword and Elesis's eyes widen in shock to what she just said. "You might be surprised but...We were also targeted by the aliens." She continues to explain.
Flashback
Right after the battle between the young siblings and the demon general, the Twinsers attacked them and Scar's army.
"F-Flee! Flee! We must escape!" One of the demons cried out. "The army is lost!"
They then spotted a flying saucer coming to them. The young siblings and Scar hid behind the trees as the siblings watched the demon getting abducted by the alien shocking them, while Scar contacts his ship.
"This is the demon general! Do you read me!" He shouted. "Bring the Ship of Grand Demons here, now!"
"AT YOUR COMMANDS, GENERAL!" They all look up to see the saucers being shot by a giant flying demon ship. Meanwhile, the saucer spotted the siblings and scar and was about to shoot them until the ship shot it.
"I see General Scar! Bring the ship down!" The coordinators yelled. The ship then descends in front of the three as Scar almost enters when he turns to the siblings. "If you want to stay alive, get in the ship! I won't hesitate you tell you twice!" He said to them as he enters. "Take them to the ship!" He said to two of the demons.
"Yes, general!" They said before coming out to get the young siblings. "You two! Get up and get there. Now!"
The young siblings were confused to why Scar wants them in their ship. They thought they were going to imprisoned them, but Young Elesis had a different thought, like he was actually saving them.
After thinking this, she made up her mind. "Come on, Elsword! Let's just do what he says." She spoke to her little brother.
"Eh? But why?" He questions.
"I don't know, but it would probably be the best to listen to them for now and get in the ship. It's better than staying here while the place is overflowing with crazy monsters flying around the place."
Young Elsword knew that he didn't have a choice either and listened to his sister. "Okay, sis. If you think that, then I will stay with you." He said.
"Hurry up before these stupid aliens come back!" The demons shouted. After the agreement, The young siblings entered the Ship of Grand Demons. The ship then ascends high in the sky flying away from the saucers.
Flashback End
"And THAT is how Elsword and I were rescued by the demon general, crazy as it sounds." Young Elesis continues t explain. "And now... I'm pretty sure all of Rube has fallen under the aliens' control. I know it's stupid for us to be with the demons, but we're doing this for our lives.
"What really matters right now is that we have to deal with something that is our enemy and the demons' enemy as well. So please, just let them go and we'll take care of them some other time. Can you trust them for now?"
As much as Elsword and Elesis doesn't want to believe this, she was right. They don't know what they are even up against anymore. The demons or the Twinsers? To them, both of them are a threat to Elrios. But the Twinsers look more dangerous then the demons.
They still want to kill the demons though, but they know they can't do that. They realized that this isn't their timeline anymore. This is the past and it's something they cannot do what they want in there. After Young Elesis discussed the situation between the two inhuman species, it made want to kill the demons less. Plus they still don't knw where they are even going.
After lots of thinking, they older siblings let a big sigh and decided to let them go. "All right then... I'll let you demons live but only for one reason; saving these kids from the aliens." Elesis spoke with a serious face to Scar making her younger self surprised for a bit. "But that still doesn't mean I trust you completely."
"Tsk! Do what you want." Scar grunted as he continues to stare in the sky.
"Um...hey! Red-haired lady." Young Elesis spoke to the old one. "Could we have a minute in private. That includes you two as well."
"Huh? Um...okay." She replied back. She was confused, but for some reason in shivers her body. Same goes for Elsword. The four went to a place where no one could hear or see them. "So...what have you come to talk about?" Elesis asks her younger self.
"...Who are you?" is what she said.
"Eh?"
"Be honest with me. Who are you guys? What are your names? Why do you look like us? Where did you come from? And why are you here?" She started asking numerous questions surprising the old siblings.
"W-What are you talking about? Why are you asking us these things?" Elesis tries to avoid the questions but her younger self was against it.
"Don't try to hide it from me! I know that you know something about us. Those eyes... that hair... those are the things you're trying to hide from us!"
"S-Sis? What are you saying?" Young Elsword asks his sister.
"Come on, Elsword! Open your eyes! Take a look at them. Don't they look like us?"
That made the older siblings shock with fear. Young Elesis knows the connection between them and their younger selves. She knew their appearances look so familiar so them somehow. That's what made look so suspicious to her.
Young Elsword took a big look at them. "Well, they do have red eyes and hair like us..." He mumbles. The older siblings were speechless, they don't what to say anymore.
"Exactly! Now tell us the truth or I will have to do it for you by force!" She shouted angrily grabbing her demonic sword.
That's when the older siblings started to freak out not knowing that she would go that far. They knew they couldn't hide it for any longer. If they fight each other, things will get messy, and fighting your younger self may be the worst idea.
When Elesis saw her younger self's serious face, it reminded her of how serious and mature she was in the past as well, that's because she was her. She was always like that, most of the times anyway. Elesis always makes the right decision to make everything feel safe. Seeing her like that explains that she can't hide the truth from her anymore. She had no other choice to sigh and open her words.
"Elsword...We're going to tell them the truth." She said to her brother.
"What?!" He shouted shocked that Elesis changed her mind.
"Huh? Elsword?" Young Elesis spoke disoriented thinking she's speaking to her Elsword.
"Yeah?" Young Elsword said to his sister.
"N-No! I mean... She just called that guy 'Elsword'."
"Huh? She did?"
"But you said if they find out the past would-" Elsword whispered but Elesis cut him off.
"We have no choice, Elsword." She whispered back. "It's better if we tell them now or they won't trust us. If this will change the future, then I will have no choice but to take it."
Elsword spoke nothing for a second and sighed. "Alright! If this is what we can do, then I'll cooperate with you."
"Thanks, little brother."
Elesis was now ready to tell the whole truth to the younger siblings while Elsword was on standby. "Alright! You two, I will now tell you the truth of who we are and why we are here? So lay down your weapons and we will discuss each other. Okay?"
The younger siblings looked at each other. Young Elsword nodded at her agreeing to listen. This made his sister lay down her sword and was ready to listen. "By the way, how old are you two?" Elesis asks them.
"I'm 13." Young Elesis answers.
"10." Young Elsword follows.
"Okay, that should be good to know..." They were confused to why she needed to know their age.
Elesis took a deep breath as the younger siblings gulped, nervous of what they were going to hear.
"The truth is...we're not from this time." She began to explain. "We are actually from 6 years from the future. My name is actually... Elesis and the guy next to me is my little brother Elsword. It is a pleasure to meet you... our younger selves."
The two siblings couldn't believe what they just heard. 6 six years from the future? Different timeline? It was really confusing to them. But what really made them freak out was that the two pair they were talking to were their older selves from the future.
"... Y-You're lying... right?" Young Elesis shivers trying not to believe it. "I-I'm pretty sure you guys bumped your heads or something."
"Think about it. You were the one who was wondering why we look and sound a lot like you two. Take a look at us, we have huge resemblance to you guys. If you don't believe us, take another look at us."
Young Elesis comes closer to her older self while Young Elsword takes a closer look at his older self. They had the same red scarlet eyes has both of them. Their hair color was exactly the same to them. It was no doubt that they are Elesis and Elsword from the future.
"You can't be... No way!" Young Elesis shivers faster with sweat on her face as she began to believe that they're from the future now.
"Wow... You really do look like us." Young Elsword says like he doesn't understand the situation.
"Now do you believe us?" Elsword sighed as he slightly smiled.
"I... really don't want to believe this but...somehow this seems so real and believable. I can't understand how you came here, or rather why are you even here? To save the future?" Young Elesis found it hard to believe but it look too good to be true for her.
"...Something like that." Elsword scratches his head with his finger. "We're sort of accidentally got here by a time machine. But now, we're actually looking for certain people from our time who came here to the past. And now we're-"
Before anymore words can be heard, an alarm was suddenly set off.
"Looks like trouble!" Elesis cried out. "We'll have to discuss this later. Come on! Let's go back to the command room!" The three agreed as they ran back to the command room.
"Status report, General! We are currently on approach to Lanox." One of the demon coordinators reported.
All of the people in the command room looked at Lanox shocked to what the Twinsers have done to it, especially on the Great Cavern. The Twinsers have literally constructed it into a giant fortress for Twinsers only.
"No doubt those aliens call it 'Twinser Fortress.'" Scar gritted his teeth. "No doubt their leader is in there." That's when the alarm came on again. "Status report! NOW!"
"General! We're receiving some sort of transmission from Grand... I mean, Twinser Fortress.
"Transmission? Put it on the monitor! Let's see what they want."
They all looked at the monitor above them as the screen was fizzing up a bit. Finally, it revealed a shadow of a two-headed lady. "%#$*&" She spoke which none of them could understand what she was staying. "&#$%...#$+-~"
"Who is this two-headed woman?"
"I think that might be the leader of the Twinsers." Elsword answers. "I'm guessing her name is Princess Twinser?"
"That's sounds a little bit plain and cliche, but I think it'll do for now." Elesis agrees with a big raindrop of guilt on her head.
"&$%# ...%*&# !" She spoke spreading her arms out.
None of them still had no clue. "Ugh, anyone here understands what this hag is saying?" Young Elsword said slightly irritated.
"I don't think anymore speaks that kind of language, Elsword, even for demons." Young Elesis answers her brother.
"Ack! G-General Scar! F-From Twinser Fortress..." One of the coordinators cried out. "It's a missile, and it's headed straight for us!"
"EH?" The old siblings gasped.
"Evasive action! Fire demon missile!" Scar commanded.
"Forgive me, General, but we're out of ammo."
"WHAT!?"
"We sort of used all of it against the flying ships from Lanox and Ruben."
"This is no excuse, you lot! You better do something or else I'll-"
Before Scar could say anything, the ship was already hit by the missile sent by the Twinsers. A huge explosion was created on the ship. "DIRECT HIT!" The coordinators shouted.
Princess Twinser laughed as the screen was fizzling away. The ship took massive damage from the missile making it slowly lose altitude.
"Curse those alien TRASH! We gotta hold this ship until we get out of here." Scar commanded the coordinators.
"Where?" they asked.
"ANYWHERE! Just pliot!"
The coordinators did what they have been told and flew the ship to a random direction. Surprisingly, it was strong enough to fly through a very long distance. That's when the engine and wings were exploding again making the ship slowly descend.
"Watch out! We're going to craaaaaash!" The coordinators shouted. Everyone took cover as the ship was crashing to a familiar region.
GL: Time to stop there. Looks like they'll be crash-landing to a certain region Elsword and Elesis were familiar with, but what is it? Though it would seem like them and the demons will be parting ways as they get out of the ship and investigate by themselves. Where are they and what will happen next? Next chapter will reveal.
