World Of Darkness
World 1 : The White Haven… The world was like an endless city, houses and buildings aligned all over the place. Gavin Nekomata was the main lord of White Haven. He was only 20 yet took control when he was only 16, his leadership was official when his father Niimoto Nekomata died from a heart condition that had been plaguing him for nearly a year, he died at the age of 62 with his son Gavin and daughter Takamura. She was 15 but seemed to act older then her age… Gavin walked down a narrow hallway until stepping out onto a balcony. The young ruler walked up to the end of the balcony where he could see nearly all of his city, Gavin looked outward to see a massive wall that was miles high and protected all the outer regions of the city by blocking any outsiders from invading. While their sky was protected by a powerful energy shells that was powered by a large generator below the city. MEANWHILE… WORLD 2 : Bellesa… Bellesa is a forest-like area with giant trees along with miles of fields. Bellesa was ruled by Marcia Nakamura being an only child she was destined to be lord ever since she was born… Marcia sat in her throne lost in thought when her assistant came through the door. “My dear lord we’ve caught sight of an incoming space pod headed in this region” “Are you for sure it's headed for our world?” she questioned. Her men responded: “We're not sure at the moment…it will either come here or White Haven, that world just north of us” Marcia nodded putting her hands together in a thinking position. “Go now, report back when you have new info” They bowed to her before leaving the room… Back on White Haven Gavin was also alerted of the approaching pod. Both him and his sister readied themselves in case they needed to defend one another. It was nearly an hour by the time their space craft was in orbit of. Nekonata's world, their ruler drew his sword preparing for some kind of surprise attack. Suddenly the pod stopped in mid air, hovering a few miles above White Haven’s force field. A solider came up to him : “My lord, we have received transmission from that space craft up above us…its asking us to allow them passage through our shield…what’s your course of action?” “Let them through” their leader decided. Yet he kept a firm grip on his blade. “Are you sure this is the right course of action brother?” her brother looked at her then back up at their shield, it opened letting two figures descend down from their space craft in a bean of light. One had dirty blonde hair that covered his left eye. But something about it made Gavin suspicious yet he choose to leave it be. His partner had really short dirty blonde hair with blue eyes. The two seemed as though they were related. “Welcome” Gavin formally said with his hands behind his back. “Hello” the one with short hair replied. “My name is Michael Kenjiro, commanding officer of the Sevugan army” “Sevugan?...what’s that?” Michael looked at him as if he were an idiot. “Sevugan is one of the planets near Linrick, a small green sun that not only gives off heat but also oxygen as well even though to you it sounds like complete garbage” “Why have you come here?” Takamura questioned. “Me and Chris have traveled here to ask you to join us…if you refuse, we are told to use force. Nekomata pondered for a moment before replying : What's in it if I join you?” Both men were quiet for a few seconds until Michael said : “So you don’t get slaughtered” the way he said it sounded like a threat to Gavin while also noticing Michael pulling out a small dagger from underneath his sleeve. The moment he noticed, Nekomata dashed straight for him. Both men clashed, a sword against a dagger. Sparks flew out from their class because of the force and friction. “Chris use Jindeshi” his partner grinned removing his long hair out of his eye's way. Both warriors looked in surprise by what his eye looked like, his blue eye was now a pale green with both purple and blue electricity around his iris. “Let's see either of you beat Chris' special ability it's called Jindeshi, a kind of psychic ability that can be seen activated when the user's eye changes” Gavin gripped his sword tightly once more guessing his opponent’s next move. Suddenly Chris' eye grew brighter when a purple bolt of lightning shot out of nowhere, as if it were from clouds but White Haven's sky was clear with not a cloud in sight. Gavin and Takamura managed to evade their unique enemy’s attack moments before impact. The bolt struck the ground causing a massive explosion between White Haven's tower and a small house. “Wow…he did that with his eye!?” Gavin commented a little uneasy by his target's immense power. Kenjiro laughed under his breath. “Now I’m coming at you” Chris announced, their foe grinned moving at super-human speed towards both of them. Takamura threw multiple daggers at her opponent while dashing backwards to gain distance from her foe. The combatant grinned as his eye lit up once more. Her daggers were forced away as if wind had deflected them, following up Gavin's shirt caught fire instantly. “Damn it” the young lord cried out from his burning torso. Nekomata took in a breath dashing straight for Chris, his shirt was half burned off when he managed to punch Chris in his eye. “Yes got em!” his target fell backward sighting across the tower before falling off the balcony. “I have a schedule to resume to so I’m stepping back in” One laid in the street while his partner went into offensive. Michael traded blows with Takamura while her brother descended to the streets where Chris laid motionless. “It-it's not over yet” His enemy opened his Jindeshi eye, But Gavin could see damage to the eye. (This might not go so well) the warrior thought waiting for Chris to attack. Finally the eye shined bright as they prepared an attack. Just as it seemed like an attack was occurring, Chris cried out in pain as his body was covered in his eye's light. When it cleared, his body was fried with scorch marks all over him. Nekomata hesitated for a moment then went down on his knees reaching for Chris' eye. Meanwhile Takamura was deflecting blows from Michael when she was struck in the ribs. “Ack!” she fell to her knees out of breath,, she looked up at him. “Y-you b*****d” Kenjiro slowly pulled out a small dagger preparing for the final blown when Gavin suddenly appeared behind him, tackling the man back down to the streets near Chris' corpse. “Ah I see you took it from him” he commented noticing his partner’s Jindeshi was missing. “But what use is it to you?” The lord frowned pulling out his sword once more. “I will figure out his eye's abilities” the defender replied. Michal frowned going for a full force attack, luckily his target blocked with his sword deflecting most of it's force while still causing Nekomata to stagger back a few feet. “Heh, you’re not as strong as you look…or you’re just off today” His combatant rose to his feet with a serious expression on his face. (Never thought I’d have to use this ability so early but…) The warrior put a finger up as if to hush his foe when a purple aura outlined his body. (Prepare, for my Oskoamasuo!) Gavin could feel all his senses heightened as if nothing could surprise him. Suddenly Michael went for a quick attack aimed straight towards his opponent’s face. At that moment, Nekomata pushed the approaching fist away then struck his target in the jaw. “D-damn…I won’t lose to a pawn like you!” The villain began throwing fists as fast as he could but still was deflected by his mere hand, his attacker shouted in anger not halting his onslaught yet Gavin seemed to maintain the advantage no matter what the enemy did. Finally their leader released a punch that sent Kenjiro staggering across the sky until he struck their barrier of energy inches above the wall. He lost consciousness before falling to the ground landing in a large creator from his impact. “This fight is finally over” lord of White Haven commented before throwing both defeated enemies back into their pod. Takamura hesitated with her large gun aimed at the floating pod. She looked at her brother who nodded at her with a serious face. She pulled the trigger closing her eyes, a blue beam shot out hitting the pod head on. It blew up in a fierce explosion. Gavin patted his sister on her shoulder then went into White Haven tower up to his room. There Nekomata placed the Jindeshi eye in a small jar-like container that was filled with a pink liquid that kept detached body parts in a healthy condition as long as it stays inside it… CHAPTER 2 : Commanding Strategy Their lord went to the first floor walking down a long carpeted hallway where he entered their briefing room, there they discussed Important matters regarding White Haven itself or resources alone. Nekomata sat in a chair on the left end of the table while nine other men recommended by the citizens sat aligned on both rows of the rectangular table. “Welcome…you’ve all been summoned here to help with an Important matter that has caught my attention. I am in need of a small elite unit of capable men at my side at all times or a good portion of it” “What has brought this up my lord” one of the men asked across the table. “The men that attacked me did great damage to our streets and nearly my sister Takamura…I’m not saying she needs over protection because she’s a girl, I just sense that danger can up rise in any shape or form…we must take precautions. Now any of you may speak” “My lord I understand what you’re saying, but how many members are you suggesting for this task?” Their lord pondered for a moment before answering: “We would need four members of that unit. Two guarding my location while other two guard Takamura. Do I hear any objections to my task?” All men sat still with no comment. “Good, I’ll entrust you men to form such a unit. Have one of you alert me once all four have been suggested” His members bowed as their leader left the room making his way to his throne room… Back on Bellesa… Marcia sat on her throne drinking a glass of wine when she called for her assistant. “Yes my lady?” She handed him the glass before standing up. “I wish to have a unit come with me to White Haven, for I will ask for an alliance” “But my lady…shouldn’t you have your men do it while you stay here? I think it unwise for you as the lord of Bellisea to leave your world leaving it vulnerable” She put a hand up to him signaling him to be silent. “Am I not the ruler of this world?” “Yes, you are my lady” he responded. “Then follow your Lord’s command by fetching my unit I asked for” Her assistant bowed replying : “It shall be done my lord” Marcia walked over to a window starring up at the sky in direction of White Haven. “I hope their lord is willing to corporate with me to forge an alliance…there are many who think strength and numbers is all you need which his pure idiocy. While you have the more bright people who believe strategy and tactics are the main key of gaining advantage in battle. While both are Important, other lords tend to neglect one very Important factor: Variety. For it is Variety that can overcome harsh challenges that either lords or our people face in the coming days” “My lord your men are ready for your departure. If I may ask though, during your absence who will be in control of your position?” She thought a moment…”Allow Asurma Nakahara to take over my position while I’m gone” Asurma was Marcia's closest friend, even after she took her place on the throne it didn’t sever her bond with Nakahara. They made their way towards W.H when they reached a landing station that was between them and White Haven's force field. It served as a more secure way of entering the world. “Wow seems they’ve increased their security lately” Marcia commented. “I.D please” an officer requested. Each lord was required to have an I.D if they wished entry into another's land. She pulled it out handing it to him. It was scanned in a small box-like machine… “Marcia Nakumura, age 21…and lord of Bellesa. Welcome, since you have no history against us it is customary to welcome arrivals to White Haven” “I thank you for your kind words” “There's just one thing left we have all people do just before they may enter, you must each walk through that scanner so we know what all you’re carrying or have on you” She didn’t argue, instead going along with their custom by walking through. A screen next to the officer turned on with a list: “Knife, pistol, sword, dagger. You seem very armed, normally I’d gave you hand them over until lord Nekomata says other wise but for you I’ll make an exception” She thanked him once more as the door to W.H finally opened. She walked through the city looking at the tall buildings and houses until making her way up to W.H tower. Her men followed behind her in a close group as the large doors were opened by two guards. She walked up the steps, through the entrance and finally making it to the briefing room. “Welcome” Nekomata said sitting in his usual seat. She sat just a few seats away but it didn’t seem to bother him. “I’ll get to the point, I have come in hopes that you’ll form an alliance with me and all of Bellesa. Both you and I have strength and strategy but we could be better with an allied force” “True I can see your point of view, we would benefit greatly from this alliance I’m sure” “So we are in agreement?” she asked to confirm their decision. Gavin took out a contract that he had printed awhile ago for such a discussion. She watched as Nekomata wrote something down before passing the pen and contract to her. She read it before looking down at the bottom where his signature was. She smiled before signing it herself and then passing it back to him. Gavin placed it in a folder giving it to an officer who was standing in the corner of the room. “Please have this processed then put in a safe place” They bowed exiting the room. Both lords shook hands in alliance. Marcia smiled then departed back to Bellesa… WORLD 3 Sevugan A dark figure sat on his throne with an evil red glow in his eyes. “So, Michael and Chris have been defeated have they? Well...either I’m dealing with some magnificent potential or those men were more incompetent then I thought. Makuda Kotara , since you’re one of the few high class fighters I have left, I want you to go to White Haven...and kill every last one of them... Meanwhile the lord of white Haven was turning as many citizens that were willing to volunteer into fighters capable of holding their own against outsiders. After some time had passed Nekomata had gathered 20,000 warriors at his side each in different parts of their land. About 4,000 men and women were put in all four directions along with the center near the lord’s tower. Leaving 3,980,000 citizens left to stay in their homes or any source of shelter in case things got out of hand. After some time had passed, another space craft hovered about their world just inside their atmosphere Gavin took Chris's Jindeshi eye and hid it under a loose tile that was hidden under his bed. Just then a blast shot out from the bottom of the spacecraft, it struck their force field and Nekomata could already see cracks from just their first blow. “Damn it their ray gun is too strong!” On their third attempt the enemy shattered W.H’s shield leaving them defenseless in the sky. Makuda appeared in from of Gavin with a smile on his face. “Hello Gavin Nekomata, lord of White Haven…I heard you defeated my lord’s henchmen. Chris had a unique eye that I would like returned to me” “It was destroyed with him when we blew their ship up” Makuda laughed under his breath. “Some reason I don’t believe you. So if you do have it…I’m asking one last time for you to hand it over” “And I told you that I don’t have it so get out” Kotara shot an energy blast from his palm hitting a nearby building, it crumbled to pieces just a few feet from them. Nekomata pulled out his katana while signaling Takamura to protect his Jindeshi eye hidden in his room. She nodded heading off back towards their tower, Makuda pulled out a small blade with spike around it, throwing it straight for the Lord’s sister. Luckily it missed as she entered the tower b before putting the tower on lock down. “Heh, either she values her life way to much or there's something Important worth protecting in there” Gavin ok kicked a trashcan towards his opponent, Kotara easily blasted the can to pieces when his foe came out of the smoke swinging his blade fiercely. The villain’s eyes filled with surprise as he was slashed across the torso. “Crap, how could I’ve been injured so easily!? I am my lord’s best fighter!” Makuda clinched his fist now covered in blood…At that moment the villain sprinted towards him at amazing speed, Gavin prepared to block but as it seemed like a punch, Makuda opened his bloody fist releasing an energy blast. The lord was pushed back by the force of his foe’s attack. Even after blocking Nekomata went staggering backwards, he kept his blocking stance but went sailing backwards creating a large gutter like trail in the street from his feet staying firmly on the ground. Finally he hit the side of a tall white house losing his stance. Gavin fell off the wall where he left a creator and landed on his face. “Have you given up yet?” Kotara taunted. The W.H lord slowly got back up wiping the blood from his lip. “That all you got?” he responded. His combatant began to lose his patience with a furious look on his face instead of his calm and confident expression. Gavin focused energy into the tip of his sword before making slashing motions repeatedly. A red wave of energy appeared after each motion headed towards his target, the opponent tried side flipping to doge it but his back was pierced from one of the “X” shaped energy waves. Makuda lost his concentration and landed on his side. “I-I thought I dogged it” But he rose to his feet trying to ignore his deep wound. “I’m not done yet…it’ll take more then one injury to stop me!” “Thanks for the advice” Gavin taunted as they dashed towards each other for one final attack. Gavin waited as his attacker went for an all out blow, Nekomata slid past his melee attack and slashed at his waist area. The lord looked back to see his target begin to bleed from the waist line until they collapsed on the ground motionless. Gavin was out of breath along with his injuries that were beginning to take a tool on the warrior’s body. One of his units came over to help him back to his feet. Meanwhile… The lord of Sevugan sat there pondering. “Hmm seems I have to do this myself or….” Gavin sat in his bed still resting when an alarm rang out. Nekomata injected Chris' eye replacing his left. “I hope this eye is healed and ready for battle” He left his tower to see four figures standing just a few feet away from him. “It-can’t be…” Nekomata stood before the four strongest warriors of four separate eras… Basel Kasto ; A powerful close range fighter with a nearly unbreakable body. Basel was back 200 years ago in the year 2,800. He had dark red hair with green eyes. Silvanos Drakos ; A worthy fighter known for his elemental attacks. The man was a great protector of Bellesa his home world. Misko Nekomata ; Grandfather of Gavin the current lord, was known for his unknown abilities and skill to overcome almost all obstacles. Hera Theodosia ; Ancestor of Marcia Nukumura. She looks just like her only she has snow white hair and purple eyes for some reason. Hers is known for her sword and melee skills, at one point she was known as “Theohex” a strange nickname her friends gave her before it spread to other people… Gavin stood there, shocked at seeing resurrected warriors from different eras each with incredible power. “Grand Father is that you?” he asked. Misko was about to answer when his eyes suddenly lit up with a purple light. He took off for his target reaching out to grab them by the collar, Gavin jumped back swinging his katana but was caught by the reanimated warrior before getting forced back by Misko throwing the sword with the W.H lord holding onto the handle tightly. Gavin impacted a vehicle then hit the ground. “S-s**t seems he's retained his fighting skills…which means so have those others standing there” The warrior used his sword to get to his feet as if it were a cane. (This hasn’t been tested out but I’ll try it out) “Behold the Jindeshi eye!” At first nothing happened…then finally his eye lit up like the owner’s as a bolt of lightning struck the target. Misko shook from pain then fell to his knees. “Heh, nice attack…but you’ll have to do better if you hope to defeat me” Misko was already rising to his feet while the lord put his hand over his Jindeshi eye. Being his first time using it, he was feeling a little dizzy not used to how it's powers worked. The reanimated fighter took off once more in his foe’s direction, the lord once more focused his concentration activating his left eye's unknown capabilities. This time his opponent was forced back with immense power, Misko crashed through two building then hit a large aircraft. “Yes!” he cheered seeing results from his attack. Just then Gavin fell to his knees once again gripping the side of his face. “Seems at this early stage the eye is doing about as much damage on me as it is on whoever I use it against” At that moment Misko ascended into the sky, making his way towards his target. “Damn…he’s coming and I’m too dizzy to focus my attacks” Just as Misko came in for the attack Gavin closed his eyes… An impact rang out but he didn’t feel anything, he looked to see Marcia holding the reanimated fighter's wrist keeping him from reaching it's target that was only a few feet away. “My my, what a dramatic fight…hope this wasn’t just one on one” Suddenly she kneed him in the gut sending him a few feet away before falling on his back. “Who's that?” Misko said slowly getting up next to the others. “Marcia Nukumura, lord of Bellesa” one of them replied. The warrior frowned in anger aiming his hand to his side, a blade made out of energy formed around it. The villain began swinging his energy shielded hand at Marcia but seemed to miss each slash at the last second. Marcia caught his arm, pulling her foe towards her then head-butted him with super-human force. Everyone watched in surprise as half of his face was blown off as if it were made out of clay. The other revived fighters watched with widened eyes. Misko put his hand near the area his ride side used to be. As Marcia thought of a way to end the battle, the villain slammed his palm on the ground causing waves of fire to move through the street, Gavin used his Jindeshi to blow away the flames. Marcia used it as an opportunity to finish him off, she built up energy in her hand then forced her hand straight through Misko’s chest. His body completely disintegrated into a pile of ash before blowing away by the wind. “One down” she taunted looking at the remaining three reanimated warriors. Silvanos walked up as the next challenger. “I Silvanos Drakos will be your next opponent” The warrior was tall with blue hair and red eyes. He charged up energy with red electricity swarming around his body, the warrior quickly shot it from his two finger tips like a gun. The red bolt moved incredibly fast, luckily Marcia gained ahold of it's power but was struggling to aim it. She suddenly felt a hand on her shoulder, Gavin was standing behind her transferring his body's energy to her helping her gain more control over the pure level of power she focused within her. Finally she focused just enough to shoot it back, Silvanos was struck with his own attack and collapsed on his back. “Hope that did some damage” she said to herself. Sadly her foe got to his feet with barley any trouble. “Nice try…but that didn’t have much effect on me mainly since it was my own attack” Marcia sighed in annoyance. She aimed her hand in his direction and fired a massive fireball, Silvanos put his palm out with his fingers straight together in an attempt to stop it. Once his palm and the fireball made contact…The sphere of blazing light burst apart like a firework. “How…how did he do that!?” She clinched her fist. Alright fine…seems I’ll have to use a technique that I haven’t for years” She took in a deep breath and held her breath, after a few seconds she focused her eyes on him and the warrior froze in place. The others watched as Marcia walked over to her target that stayed motionless. She punched him in his torso area with such force others could feel it's vibration, finally she kicked him in the side of the face before backing up. She stopped holding her breath and painted heavily from the extended time she spent holding it. When time for Drakos began moving again, holes appeared around his stomach then spiraled backwards across the street. “There, at least I infected some damage on him” Marcia commented. She pulled multiple daggers out, holding them in one hand. Silvaos slowly began getting up, Marcia instantly threw all of her daggers at her open opponent. Drakos side flipped just barley dodging every projectile while releasing an eruption of purple flames from his palm. “S**t!” Nakamura responded. The powerful girl pulled out her sword letting the blade take in his flames. She breathed heavily from the intensity of the situation. “It worked” She dashed forward clutching her blade firmly in her hand, Silvanos threw both hands out firing a blast of electricity from his left palm with fire in the other. Nakumara shielded herself with her weapon, letting it take in the elemental attack. At that moment Marcia took the sword and made multiple swift movements before sliding it back into it's case. “What speed” Gavin commented amazed at his allies’ speed and procession. Their foe collapsed on the street with their body split into pieces. “Such brutality” Basel responded while everyone remained silent. “Are you next?” Marcia questioned waving him over with a Taunting hand gesture. “Very well, but I doubt you'll be any challenge to me. I haven’t had a good challenge in years even before I was resurrected” Basel began walking towards them with an emotionless expression on his face. Marcia went to kick Basel across the face but was stopped by her foe’s wrist cutting her off. She landed on her back. Kasto smiled with a slight grin when he suddenly got struck across the face, sliding a few feet away but keeping his feet firmly on ground. Her combatant laughed wiping blood from their cheek. “Nice shot…seems you’re not as pathetic as you look” Basel responded. Everyone saw Gavin standing there blocking Kasto’s way to Marcia, his eye shined as he stood there pondering about his next attack…Nekomata took a deep breath then released a gust of air creating a tornado-like current. Basel managed to stay in place but was unable to get closer without being blown off his feet. Finally the lord of W.H ran out of breath and fell to his knee from both lack of oxygen plus using his new eye once more. “This eye may be powerful but it's exhausting to use” Their target grinned. “how about I show you all a technique that took me decades to master” He closed his eyes...When they opened, his body was outlined in a pink light. “Behold the power of Kasto!” A beam of pink light shot out of his body aimed straight for Gavin who was still protecting Marcia. Their lord put his hands up to block but seemed ineffective when it made contact. His body was engulfed with the same pink light that was around his foe’s body. “I-I can’t move” all of them watched as their lord looked as if they were being electrocuted. Just then the beam connecting both of them vanish, Basel fell to his knees while Gavin took in a deep breath looking up at the sky that was beginning to get dark. “Yessss, I can breath again” Nakumara stared in horror as she realized what just happened… “You switched bodies with Nekomata!?” Basel in Gavin's body turned to face her. “Is it not obvious?” he walked up to the girl, a purple glow gleamed across his eyes. Soldiers watched as their lord threw a fist as hard as she could but Basel stopped it with just a hand and threw Marcia across the area into a tower. She crashed through a window before landing on a desk. “Ack my back!” the women groaned in pain. “I doubt you’ve noticed, but since I’m now in a living body…I’ve become much stronger” She slowly got up covered in bruises. “I-I'll beat you here and now!” She held her breath charging Basel full speed, her opponent stopped in time allowing the heroine to deliver a barrage of blows to kasto's ribs over and over until the lord couldn’t hold their breath any longer she backed away letting air in once more seeing her opponent began to move again. Blood ran down both sides of Basel's mouth but didn’t seem to effect him. “This might sound strange, but I actually missed the feeling of pain” He gave out an evil laugh. Meanwhile Gavin starred at his hands, shocked to find himself trapped in an undead body. Making a fist he took off towards the battle. Nekomata descended down on the floor where both warriors stood. “Give me back my body you bastrard!” Basel Walked up to the undead body and smirked. “Why should I go back to that useless body? if it was fully revived instead of an undead corpse I would have all my power back yet I have to settle for yours you may not have power but your youth fuels mine” Gavin let out a yell of anger releasing an energy wave from his body, it shatter nearly every window of the tower but didn’t effect his target. “Your struggle is inevitable, my power far exceeds anyone on this world” Just then blood began to run from Basel. “What in the-“ A figure dressed all in black with two swords and a shotgun. Kasto turned around shooting a large both of lightning from both hands. The unknown ally put his palm out aimed directly at the incoming bolt of electricity, it was absorbed into his hand before he shot it right back. The boy’s body was electrocuted and the boy fell to the ground. “Now give him his body back” Basel weakly got up and shot a pink blast from his hand aimed for his unknown opponent, at the last second Gavin was pushed in front of it and became paralyzed once more. When the light faded Basel found himself back in his body. “No, damn it!” he slammed his fist on the ground out of anger. Gavin laid in his body trying to get back up but was too injured to stand up. “You little s**t!” Kasto shouted firing blast after blast. But each attack was easily deflected by the warrior's sword. Before the reanimated man could attack, his target pierced his torso and forced it upward splitting Basel's body in half. The villain tried to move forward but was sliced rapidly like the other foe until he was so dismembered that Basel was a pile of pieces. “Heh only one left” the man commented sliding his blade back to it's holder. “Who are you anyway?” Marcia asked putting her hand on Nekomata's injured back as he continued to lay there still too weak to move. “Makoda Kenta…I’m a high class fighter from Dark Crystal, my home world” “Well, why travel so far to this certain place?” Marcia questioned. The warrior dressed in black turned towards here with dark blue eyes. “I hunt down dark threats or anyone who deserves their fate, these reanimated warriors have multiple reasons to be exterminated. One they already died so have no reason to live again, and two they're terrorizing this world for no good reason which makes them targets for me to hunt and eliminate” “Well you have one opponent left” a voice called out. Everyone looked to see Hera Theodosia, Marcia's ancestor. “S-she looks...a lot like you” Gavin said having trouble talking. Hera brushed her snow white hair out of her shiny purple eyes. She pulled out a long thin sword with a smirk on her face. ‘So Makoda, I’m taking you on first?” Kenta pulled both swords out and replied: “yeah, and I’ll be your only opponent” Both fighters clashed, with sparks flying in every direction from their intense movement by their blades. Their skills seemed nearly matched, each time one would go for an attack, the other would either dodge or deflect it. Meanwhile soldiers came over to their hurt lord bringing medical supplies. Marcia took off Nekomata's shirt to reveal severe burns and bruises from earlier fights. “If someone could hold him still I’ll began aiding him” Nakamura held Gavin’s shoulders trying to keep him as still as she could, their medical soldier took out a small tube that contained a light blue gel, it was poured on the lord’s wounds before quickly dissolving into his skin. Others watched as Nekomata rose to his feet. “W-wow, they have extraordinary swordsmanship, both seem nearly equal with the other. But one of them is bound to make a mistake sooner or later, for now…solider come here I need you to try that aid gel on my Jindeshi” “Sir are you sure? The gel has never been tested on eyes before” his lord got on his knees asking for someone to hold his left eye open. “Yes sir” his medical solider replied still unsure about his lord’s request. Getting down on one knee in front of him, their medical aid let drops of gel land in Gavin's eye. It burned for a few seconds before vanishing like normal. “How do you feel sir?” A guard asked. Nekomata got up looking around carefully. He focused through his eye and a meteor impacted beside him. Their W.H leader felt around his Jindeshi with not an inch of pain or dizziness. “Good work” Gavin responded with a smile on his face. “I no longer feel dizzy or pain from using this eye” His guard bowed before backing away near the group of other guards. At that moment Hera managed to slice Makoda's left arm causing blood to run down the side of it. “Heh, take that I’ve wounded you Kenta!” Gavin suddenly had an idea. “Makoda look over here!” His ally jumped away from Hera as he looked at Nekomata, the lord’s eye showed a moving light as if it were being scanned…Just then a light sparkled in his eye when two copies of Makoda appeared beside him. “What the…how did you do that!? Kenta questioned shocked at his partner’s technique. “How powerful is that eye you have?” “Not sure…I was told this has unknown abilities. At first it wasn’t that strong since it was injured buy now that my eye's back in near perfect condition it can do more than it originally could” Theodosia gripped her sword with both hands, going for one of the three foes in front of her. She went to stab him straight through the heart but was forced sideways by the duplicate’s sword. She was about to pass him still gripping her blade when Kenta’s clone used a free hand to strike her in the ribs, a soft crack could be heard from the women's waist before she went staggering sideways smashing into a restaurant. The two story building collapsed on top of her burying the villain in a pile of metal and bricks. “Damn that was my favorite place to eat” Gavin complained. Their foe burst out of the rubble ascending into the sky. She put her hand up and conjured up a large ball of flames the size of an air balloon. Hera made a throwing motion with her hand, causing the large sphere of fire to make it’s way down in the direction of all their soldiers and guards. Gavin's eye twitched just before both copies of Kenta rushed ahead of it and stood between the crowd of men and her large sphere of flames. Both duplications pulled out their swords then ascended up to the attack. Their swords connected to it with flames shooting out all around their blades, the two warriors managed to slow it down but were slowly being pushed back towards it’s target. “Why won’t-it move?” one of them commented. Gavin starred at the ball of light and focused only on that…Once again his eye twitched as the massive ball was condensed into a smaller form of itself. “This is getting us nowhere, have all of them get distance from here” one clone landed in front of the crowd of men. “All of you get away from here!” At first they hesitated but then ran from the approaching attack, getting as far away as they could. Makoda, Gavin, and Marcia were now the only ones left in the area of Hera and her attack. “Both of you take cover, I’m going to blow this thing up!” Gavin stood in a narrow alley between two strong buildings while Marcia stood a few feet behind him. All three Makoda released a long range attack that caused it to explode in an eruption of fire and ash. As the shockwave headed in their direction, Gavin activated his Jindeshi that created a force of power that kept all the ash and flames away from him and Marcia as if an invincible shield was in front of them. Nekomata had to keep his eye open for as long as he wished the force to keep the shockwave away. Once it cleared, Gavin closed his eye as tears ran down his cheek. “You ok?” Marcia asked noticing his tears. “Y-yeah, my eye just got dry from holding it open for so long” Meanwhile Makoda had suffered burns but got up without much trouble. Theodosia stayed still, levitating a few meters in the air. Kenta flew at her with all three of them slashing their swords at fast speed, Hera managed to dodge most of their attacks when finally one of them forced their sword through the women’s chest, his blade set her on fire quickly burning their final opponent to pieces like the others. Gavin cheered for their victory before collapsing on the street… About two hours later he awoke in his bed. “At least that’s finally over” Nekomata slowly got up, his body still sore but feeling better then awhile ago. The W.H lord walked over to a window and enjoyed the view of his city that were still intact. His sister came in. “How are you feeling brother? Marcia told me what happened” “I’m fine, I’m just worried about you, where were you Takamura?” “I was down below the streets in our lower level part of White Haven tower. I didn’t feel like I’d be any help to you since you already had all those guards plus that eye you took from some invader awhile ago” Just then Marcia entered the room. “Oh hello lord of Bellesa” she announced bowing to them with respect. “If it's already with your brother, I’d like to speak to him alone” Takamura looked at her brother who have her a nod to ask her to leave the room, she bowed to her once more before leaving the room closing the door behind her... “I see you’re doing well, no eye pain still?” Gavin shook his head. “No, I feel a little better than I did during our long fight against those reanimated fighters” Marcia laughed once replying: True I’m feeling better as well…I’m glad you’re ok though” both lords slowly got closer to each other as they softly kissed. “Maybe you can come see my room some time” they both blushed, Nekomata gave her a kiss on her cheek just as she left… 1 Year Later… Gavin sat in the briefing room waiting for Nukumura to arrive when a messenger came over to him. “Sir there’s been a change of plans, the Bellesa lord requests you go to her home world instead for the meeting, she says it’s a personal matter that she wishes to deal with on her world only. “Very well, thank you for alerting me about it” Gavin replied getting up from his usual seat. “Any time my lord, I live to serve only you” Their lord alerted the city that as usual if their lord went off world, Takamura would be his replacement until his return… CHAPTER 3 : Unexpected news Nekomata arrived on Bellesa where some guards greeted him. He made his way into Marcia's castle into a hallway where her door was at the end of the hall. A guard with large armor stopped him. “What business do you have being here!” he slammed the end of his sword on the ground. “I was called her by Nukamura” “You insolent little fool! How dare you call her by her last name instead of the lord of Bellesa!” The tall guard aimed his sword at him preparing to attack when the door behind him opened. “Alright Erik that’s enough out of you” Marcia commented pushing him aside. “B-but my lord-“ “I’m fine Erik stop treating me as though I’m still A little girl, I have plenty of battle experience so go on, go to the lobby and get some coffee or something to eat” Erik hesitated but then bowed his head. “Yes thank you my lord” She took Gavin's hand bringing him into her room closing the door. “I have big news” she announced holding her ally's hands. “I’m pregnant” Gavin looked surprised at first but then smiled. “That’s great does anyone else know?” She put her hand on her stomach shaking her head. “No I’ve been hiding it from everyone cause I’m sure they wouldn’t approve especially it being from someone off world” Her lover kissed her forehead and assured her everything was alright. “You’re their lord and it's your baby so I doubt anyone could stop you” “It’s not stopping that I’d be stressed about it's that fact they’d keep complaining and saying I’m making a wrong decision-“ “But it's not there decision, so you shouldn’t let them get to you” She smiled and hugged him. “I guess you’re right” They kissed and laid next to each other on her bed, she quickly fell asleep while Nekomata played with her hair… After a few months Marcia finally had the baby…it wasn’t just a baby, they were twins a boy and a girl. They named the boy Xeno and the girl Cassia. They both had dark hair and light hazel eyes. Since they ruled two different worlds, Gavin raised their son while Marcia raised their daughter. They visited each other every few days so one child wouldn’t miss the other too much. Over the years each both children were taught what was important to their parents, along with what they should do if they became ruler of their world. “You must try to balance what you want with what needs to be done. Some choices may seem harsh but that doesn’t mean it’s the wrong choice” Gavin continued to explain all he could to his son. Whenever Xeno had a question, his father would answer it with precise detail. Years later his children had just turned 16 when a tall armored man landed on White Haven. “Xeno…go back to your mother and alert her of the situation” “But what about you?” He asked. “Son now’s not the time for questions…go now!” The young boy nodded running to the space pod and taking off into space. “Aww he's leaving? What a shame…one last person to play with” Gavin turned around to see a tall muscular man with dark red hair and purple eyes. (Wait, he seems familiar…) “You’re the one who sent all those invaders to attack me wasn’t it!? The strange man slowly clapped as he walked towards him. “Very good, didn’t think you’d remember after all these years” “Forget all that brutality I went through? Getting my body stolen? And feeling as though it was inevitable to fight back against a group of undead warriors who were considered one of the strongest of their time? How could I forget!?” “Don’t exaggerate, as the lord of this world, you should come to expect that in your life…I mean, what lord doesn’t get threatened or attacked from time to time?” (My son's safe off world headed to Marcia, and my sister left years ago…which means I don’t have to hold back!) The lord pulled out a gold katana he had specially forged for himself and dashed head on towards the opponent. “Come at me if you wish, I assure you it’s inevitable to beat me. Especially by yourself” Nekomata stabbed his foe in the chest going all the way to the handle of his blade before he jumped back pulling the sword out. “Heh, nice attack, but you missed the vital spot…or where you deliberately attacking around that area without hitting it? Sigh…even so, such an attack won’t work if its only one little Pierce” Gavin watched as the assailant’s wound closed and healed instantly as if it were never even there” (Great, he’s a healer…at this rate it’ll take forever until he’s defeated) Meanwhile on Bellisa… Xeno ran up the castle stairs down the hall until he was finally in his mother's throne room. A guard stopped him putting a staff by his chest. “What do you think you’re-oh prince Xeno forgive me, I assumed you were a mere peasant trying to beg our lord for food” The guard lifted his staff and backed out of the young man's way. “Mother…w-we have a problem” Xeno announced in front of his mother and sister. “What would that be?” Marcia replied slowly getting up from her throne curious to how serious the situation was. “Someone landed on his world and he immediately told me to come here, I said I could help but he still said it'd be best if I retreated here” (Hmm…if it wasn’t urgent, I won’t expect him to send Xeno all the way out here…I’m sure he needs my help so I have to go to him. Even if its not as bad as I think, it’ll be nice to at least know he’s ok) “Cassia you’re in command until I get back” She cheered while her brother crossed his arms while rolling his eyes… Back on White Haven… Nekomata landed on his back as his enemy slowly walked over to his wounded target, he kicked the lord through a building causing him to roll across a road into an aircraft. His attacker slammed him up against it holding him by the collar, the man charged up an energy attack in his hand preparing to unleash the final blow. “You killed all my men, along with reanimated warriors from different point in time…you were good, but I have no use for yo-“ suddenly Nekomata opened his left eye concentrating his remaining power through it. Even with being low on power, thanks to years of training, Gavin created a massive eruption between him and his assailant. He went sailing across the city before landing in a parking lot a few miles away. Before losing consciousness the warrior crawled underneath a vehicle. Moments later Marcia's ship landed on White Haven, she pulled out her phone tracking her husband's wedding ring… “There he is, and to think at first I didn’t agree to this stupid tracking thing” She left her phone in the ship in fear it would be destroyed in the battle. Didn’t take long for her to reach the parking lot where he was laying. “Hmm, says he's here somewhere” At first she was thinking about checking inside the cars when she saw a small trail of blood leading between two cars. “Hmm…no blood on the handle” she looked underneath to find him out cold with bruises and blood on parts of his body. She placed her hand on his head then closed her eyes…Suddenly they were transported to an urban part of White Haven. A sign that said : Welcome to White Haven outer layer was scribbled out and read : Welcome to Dark Haven enter at own risk. She hesitated for a moment then sat Nekomata up against a Shed just across from the sign. “I’ll be right back she promised before ascending into the air, the determined lord raced back to the parking where she found the man tearing it up looking for his target. “Who are you?” Marcia asked pulling a dagger quickly from her sleeve. “What good would it be? You’ll both be killed in a matter of time” The girl threw the dagger full force in his direction, it looked as though it split into five. He dogged the first three but when attempting to catch her third one, in phased right through his hand. “What!?” to his surprise the last one hit him in the stomach just barley going out the other side. At first a little blood came out of his mouth but then he began laughing, his wounds healed once more. “Takes more than that princess” She took a deep breath then grinned. “Don’t worry, I’m just getting started” Suddenly Marcia's right eye changed to dark purple. “This can’t be…another Jendeshi eye!?” The villain exclaimed. “Not exactly, this is the Sakosa eye…similar it may be but it has stronger and more precise abilities. Think of them as two parts of one whole” “Alright enough talk, if your eye is so power then show me what it can do!” He flew at great speed, right as the assailant went for a blow to the girl’s face…he froze. She had stopped him in time. The drawback of her Sakosa technique was she had to keep him in view of her right if she wanted him to remain frozen in place. As she stepped out of the way and backed up a few feet she blinked. Her opponent continued forward then stopped realizing his target had vanished from his sight. “I’m impressed, didn’t think a weakling like you could move so fast” The man grinned from his excitement. (I have to be careful when using my Sakosa abilities…more unique then Gavin's sure, but both give a strain on the user's body even if it's an instant or brief attack) Her target formed a condensed fire ball in his hand charging up it's power, Marcia didn’t take her focus off him, for she was sure the man could shoot the attack anywhere at any moment. Finally her attacker shot it… behind him! Nukamura hesitated in surprised before blinding him with a small sphere of energy. The girl took off towards the small attack. Just then she was grabbed by the leg. “You're not getting away that easily” the tall foe put his arm tightly around her throat keeping her from moving. “Heh, now just relax and enjoy the fireworks” the man waited…but no explosion, no burst of light. “What’s going on? Why didn’t my attack obliterate this worth city!?” At that moment Nukamura faded away like fog. He knew what had happened, the girl had blinded him to create a decoy of herself to purposely be caught. Meanwhile… Nekomata had finally regained consciousness when his ally returned. “I need a big favor from you” she said with a worried but serious expression. “What?” Gavin replied slowly getting up but barley having the strength to stay balanced. “I need…your Jindeshi eye” this shocked Gavin, he wasn’t expecting his wife to ask for something so personal. “I know it's a lot to ask but I need all the power I can get to beat this guy…I feel he's not even trying” Gavin put his fingers around his left eye preparing to take it out. “Why can’t I just come help you?” he questioned. She put her hand on his cheek as tears ran down his face. “Because you’re not in any condition to fight an all out battle. Don’t worry, ill be back once this is all over” they kissed before Gavin gave her the Jindeshi. After implanting them in her left side she felt both eyes change, they were now both silver. “So this is the complete whole once Sakosa and Jindeshi are joined as one set of eyes…my entire body feels as though it's tingling from their power” She raced back to her foe once again finally ready to end their clash. “I see you've returned…are you ready to end this?” She smiled at her assailant. “Yes…I am” As the unknown villain charged forward Marcia just stood calmly in his path not showing any sign of moving. He threw a punch but was utterly evaded, Nukamura punched him in the torso with such force, a nearby vehicle shook. He yelled with fury throwing as many strikes as he could focusing only on her… After about five minutes of him attacking, the villain ran out of stamina and fell to his knees. “H-how could you withstand an onslaught of blows for five minutes without getting tired as well!?” “Because, my evolved set of eyes have escalated my capabilities far beyond what they used to be” Her eye twitched, suddenly a massive eruption filled the area with light before slowly fading away. When the mist cleared, her assailant was still alive but unable to stand properly. “Y-you…can’t end me that easily” Marcia focused her sight only on him as she backed up further. Again a powerful ray of light filled the area before going out once more. She looked back to see a gapping hole where he was. Walking over she looked down but couldn’t see anything. “Just to be sure” Nukamura aimed the palm of her left hand toward the deep hole and released a small sphere of light that went descending down into the abyss. Moments later a flash of light could be seen before fading… CHAPTER 4 Revenge From The Son Years later Gavin and Marcia were reaching their 50’s when they finally decided to hand their thrones over to their children, Xeno took over the White Haven from his father. While Cassia took over Bellisa from her mother. Their parents would just sit beside their new ruler and watch. After about a month of ruling over his world, Xeno met a girl named Mackinsey, she preferred to go by Masona but never really told them why only that she liked the name. Xeno however didn’t really seem that bothered by it so it was fine. After a few months of seeing each other Mackinsey and him were engaged… Gavin along with Marcia and Cassia sat at a large white round table in a big ball room. There was a long row of food tables along with other large white tables for guests. Masona’s parents came over and sat down at the groom's table to meet his parents. “Ah you must be Gavin and Marcia, but of course, how could we not know you…since both you two used to rule your worlds until handing it over to your neck heir such as any line of power” Gavin nodded brushing the grayish dark hair from his eyes. “Enough about us, what are your names?” Nekomata questioned. “My name is Steven Conner, this is my wife Sakoda Hioki. Are daughter has always been a great child, rarely ever causing trouble, nearly always having a smile on her face. But we were surprised to find out she would be marrying the Prince, now king of White Haven…this will be a dramatic change in her life” “We haven’t really gotten to know our future son in-law but by what she has told us, and the fact you're confident that he's ready to rule this world…I don’t see a reason why we should doubt him” His wife commented.
