Chapter 4
Not too long after the meeting, mysterious shadows appeared in sky, looming over Kinerik, the Light Brings had arrived on their massive ships known as World Fliers, which were special ships designed to be able to travel from one world to another.
The people of Kinerik did not know what to make of the visitors that had come to their world as they did not know who they were or why they came to Kinerik but their presence in Kinerik alone inspired a great deal of fear in their hearts.
One of the world fliers made of black steel with a symbol of a red star then landed on the capital, attacking the attention of the council who raced to straight to it, moving too fast for the naked eye to see along with a small army of Kinerix warriors.
The world flier’s doors then opened up and then a woman, wearing a black suit that had the same red star symbol on it that was the same as that of the world fliers.
“Hello, you must be the ones in charge, the leaders of Kinerik, the great Kinerik council, it’s quite an honor to meet you” said the woman.
“We received you’re message, we know why you’re here and what you want” said the council.
“Good, so you have what we came for, hurry and give to us so we may leave and begin our noble quest of freeing this world and the rest of the six worlds from the darkness” said the woman with a devilish smile on her face.
“I’m sorry but we cannot give it to you, the red heart is far dangerous. So please leave peacefully, a battle is not what we seek” said the council.
"Neither do we, but seeing you refused to heed our warning and give us the stone peacefully I’m afraid you’ve forced to have to take it by force” said the woman.
“I hope you understand the consequences that will follow if you decided to choose to attack Kinerik” said the council.
"Oh, I understand the consequences of every action I’ve ever and will ever make, the question is, do you understand the consequences of opposing us” said the woman before turning away from the council and making her way back to the World Fliers.
The council then commanded the Kinerik warriors to attack the woman while her back was turned.
The Kinerik, obeyed the council’s command and ran towards the woman using their incredible speed, but just as they were about to reach her and attack, the woman, with nothing more than a simple snap of her fingers summoned a surge of mystical energy that flowed out of her body and hit the Kinerik warriors before they could lay a finger on her.
The warriors upon being hit by the mystical energy were killed instantly.
The council upon witness just how easy the woman end the lives of the Kinerix warriors were beginning to understand just how dangerous the woman truly was as she was able to strike down Kinerix, some of the fastest and most skilled warriors of Kinerik, and all without receiving a single blow from them, a feat that was once believed impossible for a non-Kinerikans to accomplish.
“Take one last hard look at the beautiful sky above your heads Kinerik Council, it might be the last time you get to see it before it falls” said the woman without even turning to acknowledge the council’s presence before entering back into the World Flier.Once inside the World Flier, the woman was greeted by the army of Light Brings within the World Flier.
The woman made to broadcast to all the world fliers saying, “They’ve made their decision, we gave them a chance to come in to the light but they chose darkness instead, now we, as Light Brings must do the needful, destroy the darkness and everything within”.
The Light Bringers upon hearing what the woman said went down on one knee before saying in perfect unison, “we are the Light Brings and as such it is our duty to bring the light to extinguish the darkness, nothing shall stop us from our righteous mission, not even death for if we fall to death we shall rejoices as we will become part of the divine and everlasting light”.
The woman upon hearing what the army said just smiled before saying, “Good, go out and search of the red heart and eliminate anything that stands in your way”.
The Light Brings then began their search for their search for the red heart, meanwhile, far away from the capital, the Hypirex along with one of the members of the Kinerik Council who did not join the other council members in going to meet the Light Brings, raced through the vast jungles of Kinerik until they reached mountain whose peek was so tall that it could almost reach the stars above Kinerik.
“Take these” said the council member before giving all the members of the Hypirex strange masks.
“What are these for?” asked Aselero, wondering why the council member had given them all those strange masks.“They are to help you all breath, the air at the mountain’s peak is too thin to breath. Without these masks anyone who dares to climb the mountain would die of suffocation” said the council member.
Aselero upon hearing what the council member said put on the mask along with the rest of the Hypirex before continue their journey, racing up the mountain moving at speeds so fast that they defied gravity, allowing them literally run to mountain’s peak.
Once at the top of the mountain, the council member led them all to a cave hidden away at the top of the mountain, within that cave they found a massive door made out a strange metal that was for to Kinerik.
“This door is made out of solid Vulorinuim, a special metal found only in Genesis and the toughest metal in all six worlds, it would take an army of Eretikans to break this door down” said the council member before bring out what seemed to be some kind of special remote controller.
The council member then pressed a button on the remote causing the massive Vulorinuim door to open up.They all then went in to the door.
The door led to a chamber which made the Hypirex feel strange upon entering, almost as though their entire body had doubled in weight.
"What is this strange feeling?” asked Aselero.
“I feel it too, it feels like the weight of my entire body had increased drastically” said Xellorus.
"That’s because the gravity in this chamber, thanks to technology provided to us by the people of Genesis, gravity has been great amplified and the only reason we haven’t be crushed to death because of the increased gravity is because we’re all Kinerik and as such our bodies can within stand the gravity. That being said the gravity also greatly limits our level of speed” said the council member.
They all then made their way deeper in to the chamber until they reached the chamber’s end where they saw a massive turtle like create creature lying down fast asleep with a metal collar on its neck next to door made of Vulorinuim just like the chamber’s entrance door.
“A Slotula” Xellorus, shocked to see the turtle creature that was lying next to the Vulorinuim door as were the other members of the Hypirex, recognizing the creature as the Slotula, the most deadly creature on Kinerik.
The Slotula was a massive creature that had the body of a turtle, with razor sharp teeth and claws, a massive tale and a hard shell that was covered with crystal, the creature was the most feared beast in Kinerik as it was the only creature in Kinerik that could counter the speed of a Kinerik.Despite the fact that the Slotula moved far slower Kinerikan the crystals on their shell had the ability to drain the power and speed of on Kinerikan, momentarily taking away their ability to move at supersonic speeds, leaving them venerable for an attack.
The Slotula’s ability to drain the speed was not only limited to the Kinerikan as its crystals could drain the speed of anything, an ability it uses when haunting its prey but however the Slotula and the Kinerik were still regarded as natural enemies as the Slotula enjoyed haunting and devouring the Kinerikans and Kinerikans haunted Slotula for the crystal on their shell as even though it was a natural defense meant to remove their speed, it was a key ingredient in creating a crucial tool that helped the Kinerikans survive, their limiters as the crystals that grew on the Slotula’s shell, once refined by the Kinerikans was what they used as their limiters.
The Hypirex upon seeing the sleeping Slotula became cautious as even though they were skilled warriors, recognized how dangerous a Slotula was even if it was only one.
The Slotula, much to the shock and horror of the Hypirex, slowly began to open up its eyes, and upon setting them on the Hypirex and the member of the Kinerik council, charged straight for them with its mouth open, displaying all its razor sharp it, ready to devour them all.
Hypirex, upon seeing the massive turtle like beast charging straight for them, stood their ground like the mighty warriors they were, not fearing the beast as it charged straight for them but before it reach them the member of the Kinerik Council brought the remote he used to open the chamber’s entrance and then pressed a button on it, activating the collar on its neck which caused it to begin to stumble and fall before collapsing on the ground and drifting back to sleep.
“How did you do that?” asked Aselero.
“Technology from the people of Genesis, they may be the weakest race in all six worlds but the technology they produce is incredible, able to tame a beast as savage as the Slotula” said the council member.
"All the more reason why we must take this foreign threat seriously, imagine if they indeed are from Genesis, they will most likely have machines and weapons that may be able to out match our most skilled warriors” said Xellorus.
"I don’t care how advance the little toys from the people of Genesis are, they will never be able to match up with the raw power and speed of a Kinerik” said Aselero, offended by what Xellorus said about the people from Genesis being able to create machines that could out match the best warrior from Kinerikan.
“If that was indeed the case the great war between the five of the six worlds against Genesis would have had a far different outcome” said the council member.
“Back then Kinerik was filled with slow and weak warriors who were nothing compared to the Kinerikans of this era, I beat my youngest and slowest son could easily out run every single one of them” said Aselero.
"Watch your mouth Hypirex, you may be one of the most skilled warriors of Kinerik but that does not give you the right insult your ancestors” said council member disgusted by the way Aselero spoke about the Kinerikans of old.
“Speaking the truth is not an insult, if any of the past warriors of Kinerik were half as competent, skilled and as fast as us, the Hypirex, not only Genesis but all five worlds would have been ours” said Aselero, speaking his mind, not caring that he was talking to a member of the Kinerik Council.
“ASELERO!!!!” screamed Xellorus; furious with Aselero and the disrespectful way he spoke about the ancient Kinerikan.
Aselero upon hearing Xellorus scream out his name turned to him and looked him straight in the eye.
Aselero and Xellorus continued to stare with an intensity that made it seem as though they were enemies ready to do battle with one another.
After a few moments passed Aselero ended the intense silent with a deep sigh before walking away with an annoyed look on his face.
Xellorus nodded his head out disappointment before turning to the council member and say, “Please, Your Grace, continue to lead the way”.
The council then pressed another button on the remote which opened the Vulorinuim door, then, one by one all made their way in to the door and found hidden by hind it the red heart stone glowing with a radiant red light, incased in some kind containment field.
“So this glowing stone is the red heart” said Aselero, unimpressed upon seeing the red heart.
“It may not look like much but the power that lies within that stone is great enough to put end to our world” said the council member.Xellorus then walked closer to the red heart and began to inspect it.
"Interesting, this containment field, it prevents anyone from taking the heart?” asked Xellorus.
“Yes” said the council member.
“Is there away to deactivate it?” asked Xellorus.
“Why do you want to know, isn’t the point of all this to keep it here out of the hands of those invades?” asked Aselero.
"Incase they managed to find this place, get through the defenses and us. We need to way to get the stone out of here” said Xellorus
.“That won’t happen” said Aselero.
“And why not?” asked Xellorus.
“Because we are more than enough to deal with any threat that dares to come here” said Aselero.
Xellorus, ignoring Aselero’s words turned to the council member before asking once again, “Your Grace is there away to deactivate the containment field”.
“Yes, with this remote. It controls everything here” said the council member before showing Xellorus the remote he used to open the Vulorinuim and put the Slotula to sleep.
“Hmm, so you’re telling me, this small remote control everything here” asked Xellorus.
“Yes” said the council member.
“Good, now you are no longer of use to me” said Xellorus with a sinister smile on his face.
“What do…” were the only words the council member could utter before Xellorus did the unspeakable, driving his fist swiftly, straight through the council member’s chest at the speed it took to blink before pulling it out, instantly ending the council member’s life.
Xellorus then took the remove the cold and lifeless corpse of the dead council member before turning to his few Hypirex and saying with a sinister smile on his face, “The light is here to remove the darkness that engulfs Kinerik and the rest of the six worlds”.
