There was no possible way for Hisafariel to block his own attack, so he received it, although he managed to avoid some of the falling rocks... "You're thougher than I though.. Will you tell me your name stranger???" Said Hisfariel, who although wounded didn't seem to care, he then prepared his hat... when suddenly Valanthia pushed him again with a psychic pulse.... "How is that?? bastard!!" "Indeed Mister Valanthia, you're becoming troublesome as well. I'll trap you into And then there were none, the same that Mister Smith I think..." Hisfariel prepared his hands... yet he didn't execute his attack, because Valanthia fell before.... in front of this Hisfariel showed an smile and said "Mytahlia, in a duel of gentlemen you shouldn't interfere" Mytahlia stood there, she didn't really pull any special power, after all as she said, she didn't had one... however she had something on her hands... an small revolver, from these revolver two accurate shots were fired in the back of Valanthia, who fell... "Uups, I think I give him in a vital organ... sorry brother." She then aimed at Aadmex, however she realized that shoting him would be useless, as he already was aware of her gun. "Well then..." On the hands of Hisfariel a sword appeared, the same that he copied from Aadmex... He dashed against him and attacked. Valanthia is K.O. Hisfariel attacks Aadmex with Bianco weak skill
"Death is the only certainty in life and the only thing that can absolutely set any one free from any pain!"
Let your inner self be the one who command your actions The Seeds were completely knocked out on the hot ground of that hot day in the middle of nowhere. Ou readied its blade, its first objective would be Nadeem, who was leading them; it aimed to severe the head, and mercilessly the blade descended toward her neck. --------------------------------------------------- “Nice explanation Mr. Smith, but I must say that it doesn’t explain how you can get of that cage… sorry” Hisfariel mocked at them, meanwhile Aadmex was focused on his moves, Mytahlia lazily readied her revolver and aimed at Valanthia’s head. “Oh well… it seems that you failed… Valanthia Citifon”, and then the sound of a gun being shot ------------------------------------------------------ A voice………….. Inside the head of Nadeem, a voice appeared………….. A voice …………. Inside the mind of Valanthia, a voice resonated………. For both, the voice spoke the same words “I really had great hopes in both of you…. Is a real shame that your lives were to end soon” “Youngers, and pursuing an ephemeral dream, a dream to idealize the world you desire…. But dragged into a horrible journey for that…. Your fate is indeed the cruelest of all……” “…..Yet I can help you to live more…. And perhaps reach your ephemeral dream….. Just let your true self flow out……..” “Humans always had inner thoughts inside of them that are constantly being rejected by their own auto-control, that’s a basic rule to live in society….. but hey, the state of this world doesn’t allow a normal society anymore, and it won’t allow it….. so break the rules….. be free….. be yourselves in real” “Huh?, who am I?.................. I am you…………..but also I’m more than you…………… seeya…… don’t disappoint me again ‘kay?” --------------------------------------------------------- The merciless blade of Ou descended, however it cut through nothing….. no, more likely it cut through flames…. It indeed severed the head of Nadeem, yet the neck that joined the head with the body was made of flames….. Suddenly a burst of flames engulfed Ou’s body completely. ------------------------------------------------------ Mytahlia shot that merciless bullet at the head of Valanthia, however….. it failed….. Mytahlia’s accuracy was notorious, so for her to fail is indeed an strange event………. Suddenly Hisfariel who was about to attack Aadmex received a wound in his leg that made him fall. It was a bullet wound. “Hey… what is this? “ asked Mytahlia. ------------------------------------------------------ The figure of Nadeem who had a fatal wound on her chest slowly raised up, she indeed looked different now. Her eyes shone with a gold light, her hair became long and of an intense red. Two long yellow steles born from the shoulders of her yellow shirt as if they were to be two long tails, her right hand was covered into a red casket formed by her own red bracelet…. And her body, was made of flames that didn’t burn her clothes. .------------------------------------------------------ And then Valanthia showed his new self; the silver trousers became black now, his long brown hair turned silver, his blue eyes now shone with silver light. And around him, rocks started to move without control. ------------------------------------------------------ Then the voice spoke again, but only to itself, no one of them “When those who chose mystic guide, release their own self, is when they can show their true nature, I’ll call this, Reverse Mode…. Or perhaps the true self mode.... Oh! how will the spawns face this turn of events now? I wonder.... I really like to wonder....” ---------------------------------------------------- This was unexpected for Ou, yet it readied her blade to face Nadeem once again, Ou striked, however Nadeem jumped high in the sky, no, she raised herself into the sky, her back…. Wore two long wings made of flames…. And then she spoke… “All right!!!! Let’s go for it!!!!” with an smile on her face…. And using her own wings as impulse, she charged against Ou pushing it several meters until it crashed on a rock on the nearbies. “Everyooooone, Wake up lazy heads…… just let your true self flow out!!!!! Be freeeeee with yourselves!!!!” ----------------------------------------------------- Valanthia just walked to Hisfariel…. “I know that you smith would be useless…. And the new doesn’t really work good…. It was a fool idea to trust you….. I had to deal with this guy by myself alone since the beginning as I planned to do” Hisfariel readied himself, then he said….”I see.. you let your true self dominate you… this was an unexpected turn of events Mister Valanthia” Valanthia didn’t say anything, he just raised his hand on the sky…….. and then something fell from a great distance…. A shooting star?... however Valanthia grab the piece of rock with his naked hands like nothing. “A… meteorite?” asked Mytahlia “Wrong” replied Valanthia…..”This is a piece of the moon…. I just had to change the gravity a bit to make it fall, and now…” Hisfariel propulsed that piece of rock with gravity and stronger than a missile it impacted against Hisfariel who couldn’t defend against it. “Smith….” He said….”How can you be too fool…. The answer is simple…. It’s a trick called the cage of the mind, you’re trapped in that cage as long as you think that you are… recognize it as something that only exists on your mind…………….fool” “Well you heard the man……….let your true self dominate yourself, if you want to win, don’t disappoint me please”
Be free with yourselves... Jaharra blinked in confusion as she stared at Nadeem, who had suddenly become some kind of being made of fire. Be free... "Remember Jaharra -what is inside is the strongest." Koth told her, wincing as the dagger in his chest slid slightly deeper. "I know you are stronger than this...and i will watch you and smile when i see you find your true self..." "Koooooooooooooooth!" Jaharra screamed, the sound guttural as her body convulsed, fangs springing out from the dormant human teeth they had once been. Her hair shortened into a ragged mane streaked with red. Her hands curled into fists, the blades protruding from her wrists shortening and splitting into three hooked claws. Her eyes glowed and darkened, changing until they resembled a wolf's. Her clothes seemed to tear themselves until they were raggedy and worn, stained by the blood of past kills. The scars on her neck and shoulders thickened and lengthened, spreading down her arms until they stopped at the bases of her thumbs. Rearing up, she growled lowly, her fangs snapping together menacingly as she lowered into a crouch, her gaze focusing on Ou. Her lips curled into a sinister smile, and she slowly circled it, waiting for it to move and try to get away or to attack. Either way it was doomed -like a deer caught by the wolf it was only a matter of time.
Alexis Alexis could just barely make out what was happening around her as she continually slipped between consciousness and a sort of dream-state. She watched as Nadeem became a being of fire, and as Jaharra became a sort of she-beast. Alexis heard a faint call, to "free her true self," but she wasn't sure if it was real or one of the nightmares in her head. A throbbing migraine forced her back into her unrelenting dreams~
Ou Ceriel. Ou hardly stood up after being tackled by Nadeem.... her new state... her reversed sun was incredible powerful as the wounds in Ou's body's revealed and as how it was barely able to continue... Not only she... but also the other girl had changed..... Ou's hands were raised... both of them fired a blast of energy, one against Nadeem, the other against Jaharra. Although the body of fire could still be damaged by this energy. Nadeem just countered it with an enormous ball of fire.... "Oh!!! poor of you Ou..... Looks like we're wining this time.... Yay!"
Jaharra snarled and ripped the energy ball apart with her claws, runes glowing on the hooked blades. Her eyes narrowed, and she stepped forward with a sly grin, revealing a dagger-like fang. "Doesn't feels so good when you're the prey now does it?" she whispered almost lovingly, eyeing Ou's wounds with the eye of an animal wanting to tear into flesh.
Aadmex “Well you heard the man……….let your true self dominate yourself, if you want to win, don’t disappoint me please” Aadmex looked to the stranger who spoke with onyx eyes. "Who are you, stranger, to play god? What qualifies you to make decisions, declare others as unworthy, and to command men who have no bond to you?" Wind began blowing at Aadmex's cloak as he raised an accusing finger towards this blaspheming man. "You are no god. You are but a man corrupted by magicks unknown. You are no more righteous than the stranger you now attack. You, sir, are just as guilty as the lowest sinner of this world." Aadmex counters Valanthia with 'Accusation of Perjury' Aadmex gives Valanthia 'Glare of Disapproval'
Reverse Mode “Smith….” He said….”How can you be too fool…. The answer is simple…. It’s a trick called the cage of the mind, you’re trapped in that cage as long as you think that you are… recognize it as something that only exists on your mind…………….fool” “Well you heard the man……….let your true self dominate yourself, if you want to win, don’t disappoint me please” Smith staggers back to the center of the cage " All I have to do is let my mind be free allow my very being out..." raises his head and closes his eyes " I need to survive this...No matter what.." suddenly darkness begins to surround his feet slowly submerging his whole body "I need to allow myself to just let go..just this once...." As soon as those words echo through out the cage the darkness quickly engulfs his head, his eyes quickly open as he lets out a staggering yell as the darkness ignites in a blazing fire like storm. In the battlefield a enormousness pillar of black Flame ignites where Smith was once captured the fiery explosion reaching skyward. When it starts to clear only one person stands in the center his body completely shaded in black his facial features barley visible. His eyes glow violet as they focus on Mytahlia and Hisfariel " You have tested the Limits of my patience" In one wave of his hand 6 green orbs appear in front of him and in one motion of his fingers they shoot at blazing speed in 2 groups of 3 towards Mythilia's weapon and Hisfariel's Hat. RM Smith Attacks with Fortuna occasiones: Green Orb (Can Shatter weapons or amour if struck twice) Medium Nero x6
Hisfariel Hisfariel stood up in front of Valanthia's heavy attack, only to be impacted by the enormous attack of a new priest guy.... his eyes were different. Hisfariel didn't had time to react at all before being impacted by the attack.... "This isn't good sister, they had changed completely".... said Hisfariel while preparing his hat for a new attack, however the hat flied out of his hand once being striked by several bullets... And other bullets flied at Mytahlia, who didn't move at all but received no damage from the bullets, even if they passed through her. "Hey, didn't you said that you didn't had any special power?" asked Valanthia. Mytahlia just answered "True, I cannot harm because I'm more close to a mortal, but hey, I've got mother's bless, is mother's power the one who also stated a law that says that I cannot be harmed by enemies..." Hisfariel was shocked, once he noticed how the stage had completely changed against his favor.... "Mytahlia.... let us retreat for now.... I cannot defeat them " Mytahlia yawned then she said "Well that cannot be denied, let us depart Hisfariel..." With a gesture Hisfariel returned to them their car.... "Oh Mister Valanthia, Mister Smith, we'll met again..." Had they indeed opposed mother's will? thought Mytahlia..... no, I'm sure that this is also part of mother's play... so this is the scenary she wrote, interesting.. Hisfariel and Mytahlia get on the motorbike, and then without saying anything else, they left... Valanthia thought on pursuing them...However under the excited state of his body during the battle he didn't noticed it, but once his body noticed it, he also realized how heavy his wounds were... his body slowly returned to normality... "Damn.... this hurts, he said with difficulty to move.... hey Smith.... do you know how to drive? I don't think I can for now..." After that he turned to the stranger... "Well, I don't want to sound like that weird guy, but hey I'm curious, who are you?"
He watches curiously a thoughts begin to race through is mind at this second he can appear right in front of them dismantling there motorbike tearing Hisfariel apart with his bare hands he has that power now. Before he has had a chance to act he notices Valanthia has come out his own trance badly beaten the new form has given new powers but has failed to heal him. I need to help him thought Smith he can feel a warmth once again over come him as the shadows enveloping his body begin to reside once his heart begins to feel compassion again. He lets out a calming breath allowing his body to recover to its normal state, "Damn.... this hurts, he said with difficulty to move.... hey Smith.... do you know how to drive? I don't think I can for now..." he quickly turns his attention back to Valanthia " Yes, of course" he walks over to him offering him help to get back into the car. "Well, I don't want to sound like that weird guy, but hey I'm curious, who are you?" Smith then keeps in ear open as he also wishes to learn more about this man that appeared out of nowhere.
anie got up with no fanfare, her looks had changed somewhat, with her hair being half white half black, but asides from that physically she was the same. But is was her mind that truly changed. Calm but collected she observed the situation and for a moment paused staring at her hand in wonderment. "So this is what control feels like. This, is temperance, my mind is clear. Though fighting should be avoided, I must defend those who can't defend them selfs." She looked at their opponent, and attacked.
Ou Ceriel. End Ou was completely overwhelmed... at this point it wasn't unnable to defend itself... And then it had to face Anie's new change.... the girl launched a ferocious attack at Ou. The Ceriel was unnable to defend itself.............. it was A L L O V E R........... However an invicible shield formed from nowhere and stopped Anie's attack... Two figures were now behind Ou.... the remaining Ceriels. For the Seeds this was the first time they saw them. The man with the blue clothes had its hand exteneded, apparently he was the one who stopped Anie's attack..... "Defensive Shield. Ds! present!" And then the girl with the green robes extenede her hand toward Ou.... and slowly Ou's wounds started to close, to the point that even it severd arm started to form again. "Healing Support. Hs! Present!" "Oh oh... this doesn't look good girls..." said Nadeem still turned into flames.... After all, in just seconds Ou stood again, completely healed. Hs and Ds readied themselves to fight the Seeds... however Ou spoke. "I've failed in my mission, let us retreat for now Hs, Ds!" Without saying a word, both of them obediently followed Ou's orders, and then before leaving Ou said to the Seeds "I've failed now, but this is a mission that I must finish, I who follow the path of Strenght won't surrender in front of such light humilliation. I'll eliminate you, this is the mission mother ordered us" And then with an incredible speed, faster than a car, the Ceriels dissapeared from the sight of the Seeds... Only now Nadeem's body relaxed... returning to its normal appearance... "S***, we barely made it.... but hey! we're alive at least!" She took a look at the truck, Ou impaled the ceiling of it, yet it still worked...... Nadeem face showed a bit of disgust.... Damn... now it will get filled with sand and insects, just great Nadeem then got up in the car and said "Heeeey, let's go... this crazy girl.. or boy... Ceriel was it?, whatever, the thing is that it really took us some time... we cannot let the other group reach the Root before than us"
Aadmex "Well, I don't want to sound like that weird guy, but hey I'm curious, who are you?" "Who I am is unimportant, stranger. I am but a speck of dust upon this earthly realm. Yet I am a speck which comes from a rock which overlooks this world. I am a speck which covers the sun over those who taint this world." Aadmex puffed up his chest, voice increasing in volume as he spoke. "This zealot's name is of no importance to you, but if you must know it, it is Aadmex."
"Who I am is unimportant, stranger. I am but a speck of dust upon this earthly realm. Yet I am a speck which comes from a rock which overlooks this world. I am a speck which covers the sun over those who taint this world." Aadmex puffed up his chest, voice increasing in volume as he spoke. "This zealot's name is of no importance to you, but if you must know it, it is Aadmex." "All..... right".... So first a guy talking about some weird mother and now a cosmic observer who is a zealot or something like that.... Indeed this had become an strange journey "Well.... Aadmex.... did I pronounce it right?... whatever. So you heard that freaky guy, we are heading to the portuary city of Romua, if you're going there we could get your a ride. But first I have to be sure..." Valanthia's face showed an stern glance over Aadmex... "As I said, you heard the guy, we plan to reconstruct Scion and stop an uncoming world destruction, you may think we're crazy, but is the truth, and hear me that if you oppose our path, we won't show mercy on you. This is what I've decided....." Then Valanthia got into the car and said "So... get into the car if you want after considering all that I've said... oh right! well you heard it from the freak, but my name is Valanthia Citifon"
Aadmex "So... get into the car if you want after considering all that I've said... oh right! well you heard it from the freak, but my name is Valanthia Citifon" "Scion was a city of evil, yet a rightful one. It would only be just to return it to its rightful existence. Very well Valanthia Citifon, I shall travel with you."
Jaharra nodded, reverting back to her normal form and climbing into the back of the car. She was shaken by the power that had flooded through her when she had gone reverse. Looking down at her hands, she smiled slightly. Guess you were right Koth...I did have a hidden power within me...
The strange building, Romua and Eddelfent. Some days after being attacked by the Spawns, both parties, the Seekers and the Seeds, safely reached their destinations… On the meanwhile a tall man with red hair and gold eyes, wearing black trousers, black boots and black long coat over a red shirt appeared in front of a big building located in an unknown island…. The style of this palace couldn’t be classified in no one of the popular architectonic styles like gothic, roman or renaissance; but its own style, a bizarre palace different to any other covered an enormous surface of the island. This man, who we saw time before wearing a white coat on that moment in Scion, was studying the structure…. He had been there for a long time, trying to seek for a way to enter into the building, yet it was impossible for him. The big door did not open by no way, the windows were unreachable, and they had an unknown force field that repelled anything that tried to get close to them, yet perhaps the most strange was that no matter what one could try, the walls were impossible to be destroyed…. This very structure is a conceptual existence…. Damn… it will only open under an special law…. And so, the destroyer of Scion stood there for days….. even if he reached before than the Seekers or the Seeds, he was unable to act. Spawns…. They must have the answer for this Portuary city of Romua The car drove by Smith reached to Romua at midnight…. Some days had passed since they fought Hisfariel, but it was safe for them to go check into a hospital mainly due to Valanthia’s wounds It was a surprise though, although Valanthia had noticed before that his pain disappeared and he was able to move without problem, he still was surprised when the medics told him, that he had nothing wrong, not even a single scratch… But…. That girl shot me twice on the back, how can I not have any wound.. As he was covered by bandages he didn’t realized that his wounds closed alone, so only on that moment he discovered it. And also Smith’s wounds were healed too, regarding Aadmex…well he wasn’t injured in the battle at all. They left the hospital and went to eat at a restaurant…. They sat on three chairs in front of a table, waiting for the waiter to take their order… The place wasn’t precisely a 5 stars restaurant, perhaps 3 would be too much for it, but they were travelers, they didn’t care about that as long as they could eat, still the menu offered good choices, Valanthia ordered a pork beef with a beer once the waiter appeared. After taking the orders of the three, the waiter asked.. “Are you travelers? Where do you came from?” Valanthia answered… “Well, it’s a bit tragic, but we came from Scion..... Trust me… there is nothing left more than a park and a pair of buildings it was horrible…” The confused waiter asked then “Sci-on?... don’t know a city like that…. And what do you mean it was horrible, something happened on that city?” Valanthia’s eyes widened… From what he knows, Scion is the third biggest city on the world and the one with the biggest cultural mix, it was even called Paradise city on other places… such famous city must been known for all, at least the name…. and also the sudden destruction of the city would had been the new of the moment. “Uum, you don’t know it?... It probably had been on the news all the last days. You know a city that was destroyed in an instant, killing millions of persons… Are you sure you haven’t heard of it?” Asked Valanthia. “Destroyed city? Are you ok mister? There had been nothing like that on the news, I’m positive” replied the man Valanthia, Smith and Aadmex exchanged looks of disbelief… their faces reflected confusion. The obscure city of Eddelfent Once the girls reached the city, Nadeem carefully parked the truck inside a parking lot. Then she got down of the car and said “Be careful, this isn’t a nice place at all, do not separate.” By the way, the aspect of this city… how could be said, it was… dirty. Although not very big, it size was considerable, some skycrapers could be seen, but the city was filled by mainly houses. The environment was…. Grey, if that metaphor can be done. Only by walking here one could felt the danger on this city. Although Nadeem seemed to be talking to herself, she spoke to the other Seeds. “Crime, murder, illegal activity, drug dealers, thieves, rape, slaves trading, nightclubs, gambling houses, etc.” She then turned to the girls. “All that happens here with a high frequence…. This is indeed the most detestable place on the world” They walked a bit… Oh regarding the wounds, at difference of the Seekers, they noticed that they healed a couple of days ago, perhaps because their wounds were more serious. So they didn’t worry to go to an hospital. Once they reached a house with a poor and dirty appearance, they stopped. Nadeem went to the door and then knocked it with a very practiced pattern of knocks. The door opened and then a boy of about 10 years old came, when he saw the guest in front of him, he jumped to her arms exclaiming “Nadeeem!!!! You’re ok, did you brought me something??... Huh? Who are they?” The boy turned his sight to the girls. “Kairo, they’re Anie, Jaharra and Alexis. Yes I’m ok, and no I didn’t brought you something, I couldn’t sorry…. Uuugh, I’m tired” said Nadeem The boy showed certain disappointment when Nadeem said that she didn’t brought anything to him, but it was suddenly exchanged by a happy look just for her to be here. “Come in! I’ll prepare you something!” said the boy Once they entered into the house with a poor aspect, the girls sat into some chairs, meanwhile Kairo went to the kitchen. “He lives alone most of the time… well except when I’m here, we’re not blood related, but we’re like brothers” commented Nadeem to the girls. “I feel sorry to have to left him alone some times on such dangerous place, but we need to get money to survive….” Then she took a deep breath… after all her delivery service failed and well she didn’t brought any money. A few minutes and then Kairo came to the table carrying a tray with some cups and bread on it. “What’s up with your face Nadeem, did something happened?” asked Kairo… “Well…. Is a long story, we’re even lucky to be alive” replied Nadeem, and then she told Kairo what happened. As a response the boy showed a confused face… “Scion? A city that was destroyed?.... Never heard of it” And the same that with the Seekers, the Seeds’s expressions became confused… So does this mean, that Scion did not existed in the minds of the people?, what was happening?.
Alexis “Well…. Is a long story, we’re even lucky to be alive” replied Nadeem, and then she told Kairo what happened. As a response the boy showed a confused face… “Scion? A city that was destroyed?.... Never heard of it” And the same that with the Seekers, the Seeds’s expressions became confused… Alexis scratched at her head as she began to wonder about their situation. Unable to find an explanation to this strange phenomenon, she patted Kairo lightly on the shoulder. "Don't worry," she consoled him, "losing your memory isn't that bad. Believe me, it's a lot better to forget a city than it is to forget your entire past."
Alexis warmly patted Kairo on the shoulder.... the reaction of him was... unexpected. He quickly pulled Alexis arm toward him, and quickly pulled a knife from inside his clothes, the one he aimed to her neck... "Don't... touch....me..." he said "Kairo stop!" exclaimed Nadeem... "These aren't deangerous, I confirmed it" Only after hearing Nadeem's words, Kairo relaxed his posture and pull off the knife.... "I'm sorry. But... I don't like to be touched by strangers.... Nadeem always told me to not let strangers be too close to me" Nadeem sighed... "Well that's our life though.... Also I don't think that this is a memory loss... Kairo recognized me and also acted as he always do.... Kairo even if I told you that I was going to Scion to do a delivery, you don't have idea of the city?" Asked Nadeem seriously to the boy. "No... I'm sorry Nadeem, I don't recall you telling me that...." That settled it.... it wasn't only the physical form of the city, but also its memory dissapeared... "Kairo, had you ever heard of the Park of the dead flowers?" asked Nadeem "Oh sure I had, they said that is on.... uuum.... on some city I think?. Is kind of a big park with a big sculpture filled with tree and flowers no?" And that confirmed it, the memory of the Park still existed, as it wasn't destroyed with the city. The mystery now was, why did they knew about Scion while everyone else forgot about it. Did it had relationship with the fact that they survive and developed strange skills. This was all confusing... "I see.... Scion indeed no longer exists... even as a concept..." said Nadeem inmersed in deep though
"Human existence is so fleeting. First the city, now no one remembers te people in the city. Not so strange when you realize most cities, and most people in history are forgotten." Anie sighed, "The universe is truly an unfeeling one."
"I doubt that Anie." Jaharra said, looking up. "Many things are forgotten over time -but Scion was one of the largest and most famous cities known to mankind in this exact day and age. I say this has something to do with what destroyed the city. Plus; it's just too suspicious that he remembers the Park." Jaharra sighed and drew a dagger form her belt, twirling it idly until she realized she may look threatening to the kid. "Sorry -bad habit." she muttered and put it away, crossing her arms.
Cocoon of Dreams "Mmmm... what to do....?" Wondered Nadeem... "Oh right!, a map, do we have a full map of the Earth here Kairo?" "Oh.. sure we have a map... but what do you mean with Earth Nadeem?, like the ground or something like that?" replied Kairo "Huh?... Earth... of course I mean a map of the continents of planet Earth, you know, those that you see in geography lessons and stuff like that..." said Nadeem "Planet Earth?.... uuum...nevermind... I'll go look for one" said Kairo with a confused look on his face. That was even more strange than the fact that he didn't knew Scion. Wondered Nadeem.... I mean, is normal for everyone to know the name of the planet they live in, no? A couple of minutes and then Kairo returned with an old book about Astronomy and Geography. Nadeem quickly grabbed and opened it, of course she had done it before, but it felt different now... as if she was expecting a new surprise... and it was like that. "What's this?..... Planet Cocoon of Dreams, the third on the solar system... the planet we inhabit?" said perplexed while reading... "Cocoon of Dreams?? what's this?? a joke?... this is Planet Earth, damn, even the other name is ridiculous." The book displayed the typical picture of the solar system... the third planet looked... different?. No, it was the same, perhaps it was Nadeem's impression but the continents seemed to be different. And well it was called Cocoon of Dreams.. more strange. But things got crazier once she went to the geography part, and the globe was displayed on a completely different shape... "Hey... I had opened this book several times... is this a joke Kairo?.. this doesn't make sense at all." The continent in the one Scion was, dominated the center of the globe, and then as if it were to form a cross, four more continents separated by water were occuping the same distance from every corner of the center continent.... and an small island occupied an small portion crossing the sea above the continent... Then Nadeem quickly take a look at were Scion supposedly was, however there was nothing. Just a plain extension of land, and a little dot pointed the Park of the dead flowers. She then read about it. "Park of the dead flowers... a mystical marvelous location in the middle of the central continent, it's a big park surrounded by a few buildings, it could be called a village, but no one lives there at all. The park occupies an extension of XX kilometers in the land, and then is surrounded by a vast empty extension of land............. is famous for its beautiful mix of different trees and flowers, and the beautiful nine pointed star monument................." She then got bored to continue reading and closed suddenly the book "Hey... don't you think that this is weird?" asked Nadeem to her companions.
Jaharra took one look at the book and hissed in surprise. grabbing it, she looked at the pictures, her eyes roving over the pages to quickly digest the information it offered. "It's like we were transported through time or something...." she whispered, "Do you think that explosion that destroyed the city had something to do with it?" Slouching back against the couch, she rubbed her temples. Then looked up at Kairo. "Hey kid -have you ever heard the name Koth Long-Blade? He was a famous bounty hunter that was killed by a man no one was ever able to identify." she asked slowly, her eyes glinting a darker shade of red, "Koth -like "Cough"."
"It's like we were transported through time or something...." "No, that cannot be" said Nadeem... "Kairo is still a ten years old boy.... " "Hey kid -have you ever heard the name Koth Long-Blade? He was a famous bounty hunter that was killed by a man no one was ever able to identify." she asked slowly, her eyes glinting a darker shade of red, "Koth -like "Cough"." "Koth like cough?.... nope, never heard of him. A famous bounty hunter probably would had come to this town in some moment..... " said Kairo "I can second that" said Nadeem, "Usually dirty jobs for Bounty hunters are hanged in several murals inside some dark houses." What can be said now? 1) Scion was destroyed, but also erased from memories of people.
