Chapter 55 - I am the one who will 'Remain'

Chapter 55

All the remaining people, aliens, and other beings from the other Dimensions are starting to lose their minds, only one look from those gargantuan eyes, and their minds completely taken over by Darkness, their eyes turning completely black.

Then the galaxies sized snake starts to move his body, a small move from his body destroying the space around it, his body seems that it moves slower than a snail, but when he slides for a few times, he is already in front of them, his speed even faster than Urrokon Vol'gan, the Devil Speedster.

When he stops in front of them, the big guys see a head bigger than the black hole from the center of our Milky Way. His eyes now even bigger than before, his body so long that you can't even see where it ends. His body completely black, his scales absorbing the light almost completely. And his eyes a yellow mixed with orange that looks like lava.

But the next moment his body starts to shrink, and in a second a frail looking old man appears before them.

His body more bones than flesh, his head completely bold, his wrinkles bigger than the Big Canyon. The black robe on his body loose like it's two sizes too big. But his eyes completely different, his eyes look like two burning fires that not even the entire water in the Universe could put it out. And then they hear his voice, that sounds like dying screeching birds.

"I am Morven Drakvorn. I would like to propose a deal."

The big guys just look at him and then at one another, this is not what they were expecting. Zmaug was ready for the fight of his life. But then Ark says after a few moments;

"Let's hear it."

Morven then smiles, but his smile looks more like a scary face, if a child would see it, they would pee their pants.

"I want to join you, i also have beef with the Celestials. I was once a ruler of an entire Dimension, the 1000th Dimension to be precise, but then the Celestials came, and destroyed most of my kingdom and killed most of my race, now i don't know if even 100 of us still live. Alone i don't stand a chance, but i think you are someone who will go all the way to the end, and maybe even further. If i learned something in all my life, is that i can recognize the ones, who can do what they say, and not only speaking empty words. And that is maybe my most powerful ability."

Ark looks at him for a few seconds and then asks again;

"How come you are here in the third Dimension? And why didn't you try to gather your remaining people, and try to hire some powerful mercenaries, to make the Celestials life hard?"

Morven for a few moments doesn't say anything, but his entire being looks like it could be blown by a breeze, 'He looks really sad', all think.

"Why do you think we are only a few remaining? Why do you think i look like this? Why do you think I'm alone right now? 

It's all the Celestials fault, we did do what you said, and the last time the 'Old One' intervened personally, he killed what was left of us, and all my family, and he almost killed me too, but i managed to sacrifice a family heirloom and i escaped here to the Third Dimension, then i was so injured that i had to go in a sleep to heal myself for more than 70.000 years, and when i woke up, everything was already changed. After, i couldn't do anything anymore, so i waited, and waited. And now if i miss this chance i will lose any hope to have my revenge, and even if I'm not 100% healed, i can still make the Celestials suffer."

Zmaug and Kyle looks at the old man in front of them, and they think, 'Probably we would also look like that, after something like what the old man went through.' 

Serak doesn't have an opinion about the old man, and how he looks, because for him the same scenario happened. When the Celestials went on the rise, many lost their homes, many lost their families, many lost their, 'All'.

Ark looks at the old man for a few seconds and says;

"First i need to see what you are capable of, and second i can heal you completely, i can dispel the 'Old One's Death Aura' and probably give you a few thousand years back of life."

When the Old man hears Ark he blocks, and when the other guys hear, they are also shocked. Giving someone's time back, is something that goes into the 'Taboo' area. Not to say who can actually do that, without really big problems following after.

The old man wakes up after a few moments, then he raises his left arm up and snaps his fingers. Immediately all the enemies start killing each other, in a few moments, all die. No one but them remain alive. They look around and see the millions of dead bodies floating in the void of space, then they see a vortex forming in the center of Morven's palm, he turns towards the Millions of bodies, then slowly all start to head towards him, faster and faster, in a few seconds all bodies disappear.

The other look at him shocked, he just absorbed a few millions of people in a few seconds, and he doesn't look any different than before, they think, 'How much can he eat?'

Ark nods and then he raises his right arm towards Morven's chest, and a golden aura starts to form on his hand, then that aura goes inside Morven's chest, at first Morven smiles, but then slowly his smile fades, then a frown appears on his aged face. And all of a sudden he raises his head up and starts to scream, but the golden aura holds his body in place, then after a few seconds, a dark cloud makes his way out of his body, and the golden aura contains the cloud so that it doesn't spread, but the dark cloud fights back, trying to destroy the golden aura, but it doesn't succeed. After a few moments the dark cloud is destroyed. Then the golden aura goes back into Morven's body. In only a few seconds the wrinkled skin starts to pull back, and muscles start to form on his body and hair starts to grow on his head.

Then the golden aura pulls back, and when the others look at Morven, they can't recognize him anymore.

Now in front of them is a middle-aged man with black like night hair and a black beard. His body full of life, with muscles so big that the robe looks almost like children's clothes on him, a little bit more and it would break. And his eyes now even more dangerous, and more alive than ever their color almost making you think there are not eyes but real fire that burns there.

Morven raises his arms and looks at them then he looks at his body, and he can't help it but raise his head and scream while his dark aura raises into the void.

When he calms down he smiles and says;

"I will follow 'The One' until the end of time. Or until my last breath is taken."

Ark smiles and nods, then he turns his head towards the void again. There he sees a new wave of enemies approaching, and they are led by a man who sits on a platform in the shape of a pyramid carried by slaves. Next to him an axe bigger than him by two times, floats. In about ten minutes the enemies will arrive. He says to the others;

"Who wants to play a game? The one who manages to kill the most, can give the others a command, and the others needs to do it whatever it takes."

The others look at one another than a smile forms on their faces, when were they ever afraid of a challenge.

Zmaug laughs and all of a sudden, he takes flight, when kyle sees him he screams;

"You cheater, who said that you can fly to them, we wait here."

But Zmaug laughs even harder and says;

"And when did we agree to that, i will win and make you all call me 'Boss Zmaug'. Ha ha ha!"

While the guys are playing, Melody and the gang feel a wave of enemies approaching the Earth. Niobe says;

"Everything is ready, all the people are in shelters, and the barriers over the Earth are in place, no one can come inside, but we can go outside."

Melody nods and says;

"People of Earth, or better said 'Warriors of Earth', are you ready for a new fight? Are you ready to defend again, your loved ones? Are you ready again, to defend your home? Are you ready again, to write History? Because i know that this time will be remembered forever, this moment here is where the stories will be made and told for generations to come. This is where we stand tall, 'NO ONE' shall pass. We go not into fight, we go into 'Tomorow'. CHAAARGE!"
