Council Chamber
Ouro Kronii
" So, when will you stop eating that crap?" Mumei asked when seeing that Kronii is still holding a jar that being filled with blended mixing of bread,
vegetables, and meat in her hand.
Warden of time making a tongue clicking sound as they are walking inside the building's corridors.
" You don't understand anything, Mumei. Sandwich is the best thing one can wish for. A blended food that contained any kind of nutrients we want.
From the toddler to granny. People will sang poem about it long after the sun has gone from this universe."
" I am not sure I understand, but-" Mumei's words has been interrupted as Kronii suddenly rising one hand in front of her.
Guardian of Civilizations peer over her friend's shoulder and seeing that Kronii's room which always clean and neat behind closed door is now slightly open,
showing a light that shine from the inside and indicates that something unusual is happening.
" Was it Sana or Fauna?" Mumei tilted her head and tip toed toward the door. But Kronii touching her friend's shoulder to make guardian of civilization stop
moving.
" Hold my sandwich, Mumei. I will take a look myself." Warden of time giving a jar of mixed food toward Guardian of Civilizations who gingerly holding it and
waiting as Kronii is gently open the door.
The room looks normal enough. The wooden table and chair are still standing where it's supposed to. Mirrors and papers are still laying neatly on the table
while kronies are still laying at the sofa at the right side of the room.
But at her working table. A person is sitting on it while sipping hot tea in his porcelain cup. He is a blonde man with blue eyes and black suit and necktie.
Gigachad Watson.
" Why did you-!" Kronii words has been interrupted as the man slowly gets up and placing his tea cup on the table.
" You know what's the similarity between sandwich and time? It is a mixing of everything. Good or bad, rotten or fresh, meat or vegetables.
Everything are being turned into one as the time runs."
" And who the hell-" " Omegaα wasn't pleased with the progress you guys are currently making. So they listen my suggestions that the council may be a bit
too old to carry it duty with current members."
" Oh, so you are newcomer? Hi!" Mumei who sneaking inside the room too waving one hand at Gigachad Watson energetically while still holding the jar of
blended eldritch abomination with another hand.
" You are one of those Watson that avoids my deletion during our gambling are you?( she is referring to the event from ' Eldritch Horror and Time Traveler'
arc.) What do you want exactly?" Kronii guessed.
" Like I said. I managed to convince Omegaα that. In order for council to become the center of the universe once again. We need new rules.
New management. Not stuck with the irresponsible and closed mind people like you." Gigachad said.
" Watch your tones, lad." Kronii tenses. " I work with Omegaα before you were being born. Your mother too."
" Being born before doesn't mean anything. It's about one who hold real power. And Omegaα decided to giving me both power as a manager and council
members. Which is mean. There's no need for old ' Warden of Time' now!"
Gigachad suddenly pulling Colt .45 single action out of the holster and shooting at Mumei, aiming at the blended sandwich in her hands.
" Am ded! (XoX)" Mumei collapsed on the floor as the sandwich jar exploded, sending deadly liquid to splatters around the room.
" What have you done… No! No! No!" Kronii turns back toward Gigachad who smirked and lit his lighter before pointing it at the layer of documents that lay
next to him.
Kronii wailed in pain as the history of sandwich is being burns into ashes. From now on people will never know what it is. The word will disappear from any
record of historian. The art of blending you meat and bread together will be gone forever. Not even a single atom has left.
" Hey! You should be care about me at least a little!" Mumei gets up from where she is laying and shouts at Kronii, who wiping her tearful eyes.
" Oh shut it, Mumei! You have not even a single bullet hole on your body. Oh my… My poor sandwich!" Kronii cries in distress after seeing that the blended
liquid on the floor simply being vaporized in a second.
" Now that the only thing you hold dear is gone. And all of time power is belong to me . You have no right to call yourself ' Warden of Time' anymore.
From now on. You are just a normal entity that being under the rule of time flowing like any other. Enjoy the time you have left. Kroyasumi!"
Gigachad then leaving the room, while Mumei quickly followed.
" You seems to have more spine than Kronii! Our work together must be fun!" Owl girl said cheerfully as the door finally closed and leaving collapsed Kronii
in the dark room.
" No, there is still a power of time that's not belong to you yet. Keeping your clock closed, Amelia Watson!" Warden of Time muttered, almost with herself.
…
Through the Portal of Space & Time Equation
Amelia Watson
Watson jerking awake after the bizarre dream about Gigachad, Warden of Time and sandwich. What is that all about again?
The pain that roaring from the hole on her shoulder make Watson seething, remember why she is here again. There is a .45 round my fookin' shoulder!
Detective moving her good arm and trying to stop her bleeding wound, searching for something inside her coat to reduce her injuries, anything.
Except from Glock 40 and some magazines. There's a reading book, cell phone, magnifying glass and pack of drugs that she kept in order to feeding her
friends. A Swiss Army knife and her family's pocket watch.
Not much of a useful tools here. Watson groaned, but refused to let her spirit down as she is still falling into the unknown. At least her pain is somewhat
reduced after taking a couple of copium.
So, she finally managed to look around and seeing that she is finally stop falling, but floating into the blackness of deep dark space instead.
A piece of small rock and ices that floating along with her gleaming from the light of distance stars. Making a wonderful scenarios that causing Watson to
thinking ' Where the faq am I.' even louder.
Before she could demand to meeting manager. Watson winced when some light shining from behinds, not a million kilometers away-star but something that
similar to a spotlight in her world. Something that shining and moving really fast.
Amelia turns back at the same time as a small star people pioneer ship suddenly hitting her shoulder as it is moving pass her, making detective yelling in pain
as the spaceship keep going. But Ame is too angry to let that go. She using her good arm to holding part of the ship's window before start banging it crazily.
Demanding a ransom for her even worse injuries.
The ship's window suddenly open as a hologram picture of women in short black hair and pink uniform turning to look at her. Next to the hologram is a baby
star people with brown hair and blue eyes. Her face is kinda similar…
The hologram of woman looks even more angry now that the child is awakened and cries. But Watson refused to back down as she is looking at the woman's
name tag on her uniform.
" Excuse me, Ms…. Wait what the f**k?" Ame gasped after seeing what's being written on the woman's clothes. It can be read as something like 'Azki'
Azki going to complained at the strange person who interrupted she and Sora's flights. But the beeping alarm sounds from her ship making DIVA A.I. flinched
and quickly scanning the area. At the same time as the small asteroid is hitting their ship, sends the pioneer ship and Amelia scattering in the opposite
direction.
" Seriously, what the f**k!?" Watson who realized that those girls must be Azki and Sora during their journey to earth around 4,500 million years ago
screaming a question.
Azki yelling a similar question too as her ship losing its control and running toward the Andromeda Galaxy instead of the Milky Ways they have been planning
to visiting.
…
Both side may not knowing it. But their little clash will changing he cause of the earth's history forever.
Tokino Sora and Azki will landing on one exoplanet in Andromeda Galaxy instead. Together, they will ruling from stars to stars and creating empire of
' Nun Nun' that will being known for millions of years. But that's not what we're focusing to. So, let follow Amelia Watson toward the fate of planet earth
without Tokino Sora instead!
…
Mongolia 70 million years ago : Planet Earth
Female Tarbosaurus roared in pain as she is choking on her recent foods. They are sticking in her throat and make her breath become almost impossible.
Tyrannosaur collapsing on the nearby oasis under the cypress trees sends group of tortoises to scattering away in the muddy water.
The desperate dinosaur trying to drinking a liquid in order to forcing her food down through her throat. Choking on the water that running through her nose
as she is sinking her face into the pond but it is no use, Tarbosaurus vision and sense becomes blurry as she is slowly laying down, waiting for inevitable end…
" Heelp!" Unfamiliar voices shouting from something that falling in the oasis too. But the dying dinosaur has no time to care since she is in the verge of dying
herself…
Amelia Watson
Ame spitting brown mud from her mouth and slowly gets up from the pond she has falls in. The air is hot and quite dry despite the fact that she is sitting on
30 centimeters deep water right now indicated that detective may being located in the place that is so hot and lack of humidity, probably a desert
or something.
As the girl slowly gets up. She start observing her surroundings with sharp eyes. The water moving as one turtle is disappearing from her eyes, backing with
some sort of palm trees that growing nearby reassured Ame that this is probably not a Mars or other planets.
So, at least she is not too far away from home.
But the similarities seems to end there. At the edge of water, Amelia see group of something that looks like a mixing between ostrich and monitor lizard.
They are not too big, only above her knees for a bit. But long tails and one single big claw at each of this thing arm telling Watson that these guys are not
just a pack of mutated roadrunners.
" You aren't what I think you are, right?" Amelia's voices is shaking for a bit as she is inhaling a grain of Asacoco inside her nose, trying to trick herself that
she isn't looking at the group of Mononykus right now.
A big snorted from something nearby her legs make Amelia winced and turning back, before she will crying for her mother as something that similar to the
T-Rex she has seen in movie theater with Gura not long ago is spraying brown water from its nose, dirtying detective's shirt even further.
Amelia running as if she has just seeing a ghost, fumbling for her pistol and pulled it out, hopefully that her Glock is big enough to take care of dinosaur too.
Her panic voices and movements are enough to send those Mononykus who standing nearby to running away. Amelia running too until she finally gets out of
the pond, panting and shaking before she finally looks back after realizing that the big Dino seems to not following her at all.
As detective is holding herself together on the sand dune. The T-Rex (?) still collapsing on the water and didn't notice any of its surroundings.
The prehistoric beast open its mouth as if to yawn, revealing something that looks like a feathers covered tail that is limping from its throat.
Following with a choking sound from the beast's mouth .
' Is it choking on something?' Watson thought, a reasonable part of her telling the girl that it is a good thing and that she should leave this thing to suffocate
and die in the oasis. This is not her home, after all. And if the Dino's throat has not being filled with too much food. Amelia might already following that poor
bastard toward the T-Rex(?) stomachs by now.
But the childish part of her. The one that looking at movie like Jurassic Park with awe. Telling her that such a majestic creature like this shouldn't die by
choking on its own food.
But that may be just this animal fate to die here in the middle of nowhere. And Watson has no time to spare. If this is actually an era of dinosaurs.
Then she still have a long walk toward the age of her own. The bleeding wounds on her shoulder is still not stop yet.
So, she might face a shock from blood loss and die at any moment if she is not hurry.
Amelia praying for the poor creature for the last time before she will stumbles out of the oasis, trying to ignore the whimpering sound from the giant meat
eater Dino.
If you couldn't change one thing, then you couldn't change anything!
A random quote that pop out when we feel guilty of something make Amelia stopped and turning back. Before she will cursed herself and running toward the
dying dinosaur, stomping on its lower lips to get the better ground as she is pulling the tail of something that sticking in the T-Rex(?) mouth as hard as she
could.
The dinosaur seems to notice the change of thing too. It is slowly lifting its head above water as Watson is pulling with every muscles inside her body,
yelling something unintelligible as she is doing so.
" Hiiiiiiiick!"
At last, the 'foods' finally coming out of the dinosaur's mouth.
Ame crashing on the muddy floors and cry out in pain as the impact sending the shock toward her ruined shoulder. After some times have passed,
the detective finally lifting her upper half up and seeing what she has pulled out of this Rexy throat.
Half sinking in the brown mud are two dinosaurs. One is something that looks like a mixing between turkey and monitor lizard ( Velociraptor) and something
that looks like a hornless sheep sized ceratopsian ( Protoceratops) both creatures that being devoured by the gluttony Tarbosaurus at the same time are
somewhat being ties together in the big dinosaur throat. The raptor's big feet claws is being laid next to the ceratopsian's ribs.
While it long arm is being stuck inside the plant eater beak by accident as the tyrannosaur is trying to force them inside her stomach.
When looking at the scene. Watson realized that it could trick someone else into thinking that they were looking at the fight to death evidence between raptor
and its prey right now.
" Chotto a minute! Did I actually seen you guys before?" Amelia asked after looking at both dinosaurs position for a second times.
She pulling her cell phone out and ready to capture the picture as some warm breath blowing her neck from behind.
Detective slowly turns back and seeing the Tarbosaurus that staring at her with its bloodshot eyes. They are so close that Ame could have touching the
animal's nose if she is brave enough to do so.
" Wait! I came in peace!" Amelia quickly rising both arms in surrenders position. But the dinosaur seems to not particularly care as it is staring at her soul,
mouth slightly open…
…
Tarbosaurus sniffing the stranger for a second times. This thing smells like a mammal she used to eat as a child, but bigger than every one of them she used
to grow with, which is not bigger that house cat. The dinosaur wonder for a moment what this one should taste like.
But the stinging of acid in her throat make Tarbosaurus stop whatever she is about to do. She just learned today that eating too much can cause a
surprisingly harm to your body. And she is more fond of thick, juicy hadrosaur meat instead of this bone filled skinny mammal anyway.
So, the tyrannosaur snorted at the stranger for the last time before she will slowly walking out of the area, sipping water from the oasis to solved the reflux
acid before going on with her ways of life.
…
" Great! I just wet my pants!" Amelia groaned after seeing that she has sit on the muddy ground of the oasis area. Her skirt and panty are pretty much a
mess. But at least Watson is still live long enough to tell a tale.
Amelia looking at the clear blue sky as she is crawling toward the drier part of the desert. At least she is not going to dehydrate here.
But she will have to dragging those dinosaur carcasses out soon. If she still hoping to drink from that oasis.
A frog sound that coming from the ponds make Amelia grinned and look at the direction, at least there is still a familiar face in this dinosaur era.
Maybe she could take a picture or twos before leaving this place, an evident that she has reached the era of fokken' dinosaur after all.
As she is taking a couple of selfie with the oasis and dinosaur's carcasses. Amelia realized that the frogs are waddling toward her.
There seems to be six of them, but perhaps there's a trick of light or something. Because those creatures seem to become bigger and bigger as they are
coming closer.
Amelia still refused to believe that and taking a few more pictures until the first amphibian finally crawling out of the water and is not more than two meters
away for her. Its sized is estimates around half a meter.
Beelzebufo ( giant prehistoric frog) making a strange calling sound as it is reaching Amelia's legs with incredible speed. Forcing detective to admit that there
is some big ass frog approaching her from behinds.
" Stop! Or I will shoot!" Amelia yelled, but those frogs seem undeterred. They ignored her gun and jumping up and down with incredible speed, passing
Watson while she is still reluctant to pulled the trigger.
" Wh…what?" Ame gasped, watched in disbelief as the group of frogs are moving passed her within a seconds.
Before she could grasped at what's happening. The sky suddenly darkened as the wind become stronger, causing Amelia to looks up and seeing the wall of
dust that are running toward her, it seems that the sandstorm finally decided to approach this peaceful oasis
for some reason.
"Oh crap!" Watson cries in distress as she is running along with the frogs, pulling her coat higher to blocking the strong wind and sand that trying to get into
her nose and mouth. But her hair suddenly being pulled in the opposite direction as the mystery portal are open in front of her, dragging detective inside it
before she could doing anything except from swears.
" What the sh**t is this?" Ame yelled in frustration as the portal is closed once again, leaving no trace of her behinds.
…
Burkhan Khaldun Mountains : Mongolia. 1175 A.D.
The boy looking at the small fire that being lit in front of him. It is very small. Probably no bigger than the big candle that being used in aromatherapy room
from nowadays spa or something. But it is still big enough to catch enemy's attention if he doesn't kills it soon.
The boy mouth is watering at the sight of his only meal for today. A small fish that is not bigger than his thumb. But the comfort of fire is too much for him to
simply just eat it raw and he determines to put a dirt on top of the flame as soon as the fish is done.
He try to not thinking about the unfairness of this world. His tribe, former tribe is looking for him right now. And they are not seeking for reunion either,
in fact, they are probably finding a way to murder, robbed or imprison him and his family right now, forcing the boy to hide in the dense forest of the
mountains and have nothing to eat except from small fish from the stream of melted snow that flowing from the white mountains.
He hope that his family will be alright by moving away and pretend to know nothing about his whereabouts. The winter is coming and the air become colder.
His pursuers will have to leave this mountain and catch up with their tribes too if they don't want to being left in the world of ice and snows that have only
death as a companion.
Now, it is a game of patience and the boy knows that he still has some of it left inside his. He carried it since he was born after all.
But still, the life in this steppes and mountains range are not a walk in the park. He waited for seven days with only water and raw berries to sustained
himself as the group of man on horseback are galloping around, trying to looking for and punish him for 'crime' he has done years ago.
The boy biting his lips again in frustration as he recalled the past event. Yes, he shots his half brother with bow and killing him.
But that (literary, since he saw that bastard trying to force his way with his mother.) MF stealing their store foods that being kept for their first winter.
There is no room for parasite left after the family has been left to death in this frozen hell by their own tribes. ( The boy and his mother are family of tribe
leader who being poison by his enemies. And their underlings decided that widow and young children has no used for them.
And showing that by expelled his family out of the tribe. If that's not brutal enough.) even if that parasite happens to be his brother.
Whatever, his tribe seemed to not comfortable with the thought of the family they left behind to froze to death by bitter winter somehow survived.
So, they have come here to end the itch in their back with their bows and swords, once for all.
The boy and his family separated in hope to confuse their hunters long enough for them to leave. And it seems to working for his mother and brothers.
However the hunters seem to not give up on him easily, probably because he is the oldest male alive in his family. When we kill snake.
We have to aiming at its head.
The boy trying to get rid of his strain by checking his bow condition. It is the best quality one they could made in this frozen grassland.
Animal horn, hard wood and glue from boiled sinew creating the finest killing machine in this century. The mongol composite bow.
His remaining arrows are not as good. Animal bone are not as capable to penetrate leather armor like iron one he used to have.
But beggars can't be a choosers and he has wiping them with venom sag from mountain viper not long ago. Besides, a shot in the neck could take everything
out, whether they are marmot, snow leopard or human.
Before the boy could doing anything else except from shoving the half burns and half raw fish inside his mouth. A rustling sound from the forest make him
flinched and pulling his bow string, aiming it at someone who walks out of the dark forest.
" Who are you!" He shouts a warning at the person who slowly reaching the fire.
Amelia Watson
" Ah, sh*t! Here we go again!" Ame rising both of her arms as she noticed the boy in dirty animal fur coat that is aiming his bow. He is probably not older
than 13 years old. But having enough anger and melancholy in his eyes that match Watson's father when she visited him in his jails. Probably even more.
The boy yelling something even louder, making Watson winced but unable to understand what he was saying.
" Calm down, dude! Not everyone can understand your languages! Who are you again? Comanche or Apache warriors?" Amelia trying to jokes, but the boy
seemed to not appreciate it at all as he is pointing the bow at her face, demanding detective to do something.
" Wait! Wait! I have weapon too, you know ! I mean, you know what Glock is, right?" Amelia asked after seeing that he seem to didn't understand what gun
in her hand is capable of.
Amelia is not sure if she could shooting faster than the boy's arrow or she should just use her time power to running away.
But since Watson is born in the era when shooting another person randomly is somewhat immoral. So, she will used that as a last method.
" See? I have nothing for you to fear." Amelia slowly pulling her coat out, showing that there aren't anything suspicious except from some lab tubes she
carries around in case of needing boozing drugs. While her Swiss Army knife is still being folded and didn't look particularly dangerous.
Beside, she is a alone and injured young woman, which isn't particularly dangerous by the boy's standards.
So, the boy lowering his bow for a bit as he is moving closer. Speaking at Watson with the language she couldn't understand again.
" Wait a sec. I think I heard that language before. You aren't happened to be a Mongolian, aren't you?" Watson eyes sparkled as she start throwing some
introductions words she learn before the Myths cancelled trip in Mongolia. They are supposed to searching for some hiding star people in that great plain and
desert. But trips is being ruined by political stuff and the marching army that searching throughout that place seems to found no trace of the alien.
So, Amelia almost forgot all about the language she has been practicing for months before they will actually be there.
The boy tilted his head at the familiar words but not exactly the same one as his. So, Watson open her coat and handing him something.
The book about biography of Genghis Khan that being written in Mongolian language. She keeping it around in order to bragging with her friends that she
could read more than two languages.
After Ame has placing the book on the ground in front of him. The boy slowly picking the item up and open the book, looking at it upside down with a straight
face before asking Amelia in his language again.
" Wait! You are illegible? Rare nowadays. Bet you must be some kind of hillbilly in the mountain, huh? But you will surely love that book.
It's about hero of your nation after all. His life, choices, decisions, war. Families and friends. I know that khan is not the kindest person in the world.
But nobody can argue that he is a BAMF.
I mean, do you know anyone else that facing, Chinese, Arab, Turk, knight's army and winning most of the battles?
His grandson even united China and send ships to attack fookin' Japan and Java island ( albeit not winning) after all." Watson babbling at the boy's face.
At first she didn't think too much about Khan except from his cruelty and number of wives. But the more she dig in, the more impressive he is to her.
His mongol army is probably the most successful army during that time. And it's always cool to know that one person can, indeed. Change the world with
their influence. Whether in good or bad ways.
Maybe she has talking too much, because the boy retreat back and bending his bow again, understanding that he is facing a maniac right now.
" Sorry! I just haven't talk with anyone for so long. I mean, there's a portal that keeps dragging me around, Gigachad and dinosaur in the desert.
You are the only thing to seem capable of listening to me and I kinda lost it. Don't shoot!" Amelia wailed after the boy aiming his arrow at her face, yelling
something at her again.
" Okay, okay! I give up! You can take this!" Watson rolling a tube of Asakoyo at the boy, who pick it up with one hand. Still staring at Amelia with doubtful
looks on his face.
" Never tasted it before? Easy, just open and inhaled, like chocolate." Ame open one tube of Asacoco and inhale it inside her nose, almost closing her eyes
from the pleasures.
The boy reluctantly copy her movements. Open the tube of drug and inhaling it, almost choking at first but finally smiled at its effect.
" Good stuff, right? It can be even better. I'll show you!" Amelia bragged, picking a tubes of Asacoco, Asakoyo and Copium up before mixing them together
with majestic styles.
" Watson concoction. Good for releasing stress." Watson sharing the tube with the boy, taking half of it herself as the boy taking the other half, before both of
them will falling on the ground as the drug start taking its effect.
…
" That's good sh*t! Don't you think?" Watson said after looking at the sky for a while. The boy nodded and, despite not understanding this weirdo even a bit,
start telling her about his life so far. From the death of his father and brother, his life in the wilderness, the betrayal of his tribes,
his marriage that may not happened since he is not a son of clan leader anymore. All are pouring out of his mouth like a water during monsoon season.
Watson didn't understand any single word he said, but start telling him in English language about her life's story. How her father has been throwing in jails
despite not in the wrong. How she realized about her power and met ' amazing friends that will make your mouth open forever' both finally throwing
everything that kept inside their heart out by the drugs they taken and feeling incredibly light after that happened.
Boy and girls hugged each other and crying until their tears run dried. Swearing to be a besties from now on. Amelia even take a selfie of herself and the boy
as they are laughing drunkenly and pushing each other back. The book that Ame giving to him is still laying closely to the fire.
" Ah crap! I really need to pee right now. Do you have any dried paper here? Amelia picking her coat up and walking toward the nearby bushes, searching for
anything useful inside.
Before she could open her pocket flashlight that is a part of her Swiss Army knife. The same bizarre portal that she is falling into long ago suddenly open and
sucking Amelia from above, pulling her out of the place again.
" At least let me pee first!" Detective yelling at top of her lung, but the portal already close, leaving only the boy who gawked at his friend from behinds.
The boy picking the book that stranger has left and opened it again, he has heard about messenger from god before, could that girl is one of them?
The person who come to listen to his sin and offering the book of faith. Maybe he will have to find someone who can read it later.
…
"Temüjin!" His mother yelled, running from the place where she has been hiding for a while, holding a knife in her hand.
" Man on horseback! They are coming here after seeing your fire. Let put a dirt on it and moving from this forest when we still have time!
Your brothers are waiting."
" Tell them to gathered at the slope over there, mother. We have more numbers and I am sick of running." Temüjin said after grabbing his bow and arrows.
" You have a plan?" His mother asked, looking at the determination in her son's eyes.
" I will come up with it soon. The story has changed from now on. The god has given me a hints of how life should be spends, and I am all for it!" Temüjin
picking the book up and stomping on the puny fire he created, killing it in one moves.
…
