****Chapter 0: Zero******
How could I see them from this high up in the sky? Oh, right—it's my... what should I call it? *Narrative thing*?
......anyway..... back to the memory.....What am I seeing now?
C and U—attacking K. But something strange happened between them. At one point, they... exchanged their powers? That can't be right. But I saw it.
C had a flicker of shadow, just at the edge of his light, and U—when he reappeared—his shadows were *light*. No, no, that doesn't make sense. They didn't swap powers.
They exchanged *places*.
Both were moving fast, almost too fast to follow. One shot through like a bullet, piercing the void with precision, while the other flickered on and off, like a switch flipping between light and shadow. For just a moment, U *became* C. And then, just as quickly, C became U. They were intertwined, indistinguishable from each other in the speed and blur of the void.....Interesting... I guess a dramatic entrance will be needed to stop this war which is about to start beneath me.
K you may now descrip the situation K Wondered why Zero would do that after he just said he will tell his own story. Don't get confused; it's just that damn writer with his bad names. Anyway, take the lead...
edited*Chapter0: Zero*
Zero then remembered something important: what is the meaning of the names? Are they connected, as he thought? Even when the 28 were ready to go against Juls, and to add to that, Milland's soldiers arrived, it didn't faze Zero. After a bit of thinking, he made up his mind: if the reason is the door, I will be the one to protect it. It won't matter if the names were connected or not if the ritual didn't happened again; maybe, just maybe, they were bad writing.
From the ground, the tension reached a fever pitch due to Juls's betrayal, and everyone anxiously looked to D for the signal to eliminate Juls. However, Milland's soldiers suddenly arrived. In the blink of an eye, they found themselves encircled with no way out. They had a clear mission; the known objective was to terminate the six and Zero, but the clandestine directive was to eradicate everyone, as ordered by Dr. Pill.
The 29 were ready to fight, even if it meant facing thousands. But one of the Milland soldiers uttered something strange—no one could hear it, not even Zero, despite his abilities. Whatever it was, the 29's powers began to act erratically. E ignited his hands in flames to intimidate them, but the moment he threw them, the fire vanished into thin air. It wasn't just E; everyone faced the same problem.
A creeping thought began to unsettle them: Did they cancel our abilities with just one word? Panic started to rise among the group. Then, a second word came from the same soldier, and with that, their abilities were completely deactivated.
A feeling of devastation hit the 29, their spirits shattered just a moment ago. Nearly all of them were down on their knees, knowing that what separated them from death was a single push of the trigger by the Milland. Juls was about to cry, her mind racing to explain herself, but April, June, and Summer—who were the nearest to her—grabbed her hands tightly. Juls looked up, and no matter which direction she turned, all she could see were nods that conveyed three things: *I understand, you don't need to explain, keep it together.*
The 28 showed their support in the simplest way, but it struck Juls deeply. For the first time, she didn't feel the hate that had been so heavy it made her sink. That weight was replaced by something lighter, allowing her to breathe again. With an almost inaudible voice, she whispered, "Not now...., please not now."
When Juls looked up, she saw the Milland soldiers' weapons floating above them. The soldiers were confused but didn't mind; they had abilities of their own. As they began to use their powers, someone shouted a word that instantly deactivated their abilities. Panic spread among the soldiers as they scrambled to figure out how to cancel someone's power with just one word, while the best among them resorted to using two.
In the midst of this chaos, nobody understood what was happening. Suddenly, the heads of a thousand soldiers began to separate, one by one, spinning in circles in front of the 29. They stood up to witness this surreal scene. The heads twirled like a tornado, and to their shock, they noticed the number of heads increasing until familiar faces emerged—Dr. Pill, Dr. Carla, and technically everyone they knew from the government.
The whirlwind of heads didn't stop; it kept coming from every direction, creating a giant twister. C, observing the phenomenon, remarked, "These heads are moving at a speed of 15,000 k/h, and they're inside a bubble of air." Confusion spread among the group, prompting one of them to ask how he knew the speed. C replied, "I don't know, but I read that the speed of light itself doesn't change due to relative motion. After that, I could just feel the speed constantly."
The heads continued to swirl around for an hour, filling the air with a dizzying spectacle, yet nothing new emerged from the chaos. What stood before them was a massive whirlwind, larger than anything they could comprehend, and they were left bewildered, unable to fathom the reason behind this bizarre occurrence.The twister split into two;
"one contained the children, while the other enveloped the adults and the rest"
The 29 exchanged bewildered glances, realizing they had not spoken the words that had just echoed in their minds. But who had said it? Then it struck them—had someone implied that the whole of humanity was before them, moving in circles like a tornado? Were they witnessing the death of billions right before their eyes?
Their knees weakened at the sight, collapsing them to the ground as they grappled with the horrendous reality unfolding in front of them. The sheer magnitude of the scene overwhelmed them, and in the midst of the chaos, someone like April whispered, "What kind of monster did this?" .
