Frost walked through the frozen army of creatures. It had only took a moment, but he had did it. He beat them all within a blink of an eye. "Why haven't you pushed the button? Where are you?" Frost asked as he looked around for a few more minutes. Frost was in a silent area. No where near the war.
"Where am I? I was hearing screams and bombs minutes ago, but now…it's just beast. Everywhere I look." Frost put both his hands in his pockets and walked through the frozen army. (This is part of a different zone, right? It has to be. I can't shake this feeling…that I'm being watched by hundreds of-)
"Would you look at that? You really are as strong as they said you were, Frost of the frost clan." A woman's voice said from behind. Frost spun around to see no one but the frozen bodies of the beast and the frozen ground. "Who's there?" Frost said in a calm voice.
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is…you. The easy food that walked into this zone of the beast. You're the second one to walk willingly into the darkness of the zone."
"Second? So someone came here? What of them?" Frost asked.
"They survived and even killed. The great dark child of the akie race. The dark prince." The voice said from now above in the dark sky.
"Dark prince? Adisa was here?! Where is he?! Which way?!" Frost shouted and demanded immediately.
"No need to rush your death, prince of light." The woman laughed as an extremely tall black figure jumped into view, their reflection glowing through the ice.
The creature had 20 spider-like legs pointing upwards to the sky, like a dead spider on its back, a long black dress, pale white skin, red glowing away, and humanoid features. "I am am Cruel. A mythical beast of the second zone lands.
"A mythical beast? What a waste of time. Leave before I kill you." Frost said as he turned his back and began sliding across the frozen ground.
"You kill me?! Ahahahaha! No, hun. If you look around, you'll notice how greatly outnumbered you are!" Cruel yelled out, as thousands of beams were gathered in the same place as Frost. Frost stopped in his tracks and sighed.
"I have no intentions of fighting any of you. Now…piss off and let me wander."
"How dare you-"
"How dare I? NO! How dare you?! Piss. Off."
"We simply want to lend a hand, prince of light."
Frost stopped in his tracks and faced the tall beast. "How?"
"We will lead you to Adisa. He has your lover. If we lead you to him, please, promise us you'll end him. We will even help you."
"…..yeah?"
******
Just as everyone was getting settled down in the dark dimension, a large hole opened up, revealing the second zone once again, only this time, it was light everywhere. "Adisa?!" Jade yelled out.
"No! Don't go through the portal!" Adisa yelled to everyone. But it was too late, the large hole opened up and began sucking everyone inside.
******
Wonder sat on his stone throne, a smile appearing across his face. "Found you, Adisa."
******
"Damn you! Hurry up and open the portal!!" Ellowyn yelled at Joster. "Would you shut up?!? I'm about to do it. Been sitting here for hours trying to late them, but I think I've got it! The only thing is…do I do Adisa or Amaran?!?"
"Just do it! Wonder ones their locations! If you don't teleport Adisa away, he's gonna die! We lose the war! Open it and put him on the lion's planet!"
"Tsk…I'll only have it open for 10 seconds. For 10 seconds…how many people are we gonna leave behind? People are still within multiple zones, everyone's till split apart, and people will be left to die!" Splinter yelled back.
(I know a rat…when I see one.) Joster thought of Ellowyn's words, he could hear them clearly echoing through his head.
"Part of the plan is to get Wonder completely out of our orbit, right? A different planet…a different universe. I remember what you said about me, and it's true. All of it is…Ellowyn, please, promise me something."
Ellowyn had concern on their face, as they looked down at the boy with some…empathy. "What are you about to do, boy?" Ellowyn asked.
"What I shove done from the start. I have enough energy, I'm just…so damn scared of what comes next. But, perhaps this was bound to happen. I'm going to split everyone apart. Some fighters will come back to earth and handle the monstrosities that are beyond the island. Some will stay in the beast lands, kill anyone or anything else that is working with Wonder and a key fighter to kill in this war. Amaran will then give us his army. They can help take out ships, beast, clear lands on earth, clear zones, and even give us a fighting chance."
"Joster, if you cast such a spell…you'll die. Your aura levels aren't on that level to cast such power. What you're doing involves a vow. An aura vow. One that will trade your life for this to happen. You'll be giving your life to a cause…and not many will know of your sacrifice." Ellowyn explained.
"Yeah….im aware of that, Ellowyn. This is part of the plan. I put all my faith in the comrades we've gathered today for this moment. Now…if you'll excuse me…it would seem we're about to run out of time…" Joster said with a slight crack in his voice.
"Joster…"
*****
"Don't let go of that beast!" Splinter yelled at Plus.
"The hell is going on?!" Bane yelled. Everyone fell through the portal and I as casted out of the dark dimension.
Jericho flipped his body upward and looked at the great armada that waited for everyone below. "Adisa!" Jericho yelled, getting Adisa's attention while everyone was falling.
There were billions of beast and flying machines, surrounding the group for miles and miles.
Everyone landed, Adisa quickly ran towards the front of the group and eventually made it. Adisa then saw him…Frost standing with the beast behind him.
Adisa immediately drew his sword. "FROOOOOOOST!!!!!" Adisa yelled.
"Stay calm! Do not separate!" Rogue yelled out.
"What is he doing?!" Flow said as he also revealed his red glowing sword.
Adisa couldn't hear anyone. The only thing on his mind…as Frost. Why was he with the beast? And with such a vast amount of them? Could he have been on their side since the beginning?
"What are you doing, Frost?!" Jerome yelled over.
"What needs to be done. If Adisa dies here, Wonder will earth alone-"
"You really think that?! Why is it you think he wants Adisa dead?! Aten and Adisa share the same aura. They are nearly one! Aten is a guardian that can stop Wonder! Wonder wants world domination! To rule over this entire universe!" Colt explained.
Frost ignored Colt and looked around the crowd immediately for Summer. Frost could see a massive knight holding Summer in its hands.
"Tank, if Frost even moves an inch, squeeze the life out of Summer." Adisa ordered Tank.
"As you wish." Tank replied.
"Adisa Anunnaki." A beast called out. Cruel held out her hand. "If you come with us, I promise everyone here shall leave with no harm. Come with us and die-"
Cruel's head was removed from her body in only the blink of an eye. Adisa waved his sword and returned it at his side. "Sorry, she mentioned death." Adisa said.
Frost smiled at Adisa, his aura beginning to flare. (Colt. Rogue. Adisa. Flow. Jade. They have a lot of fighters with them, but…)
"There's one thing you must know, Adisa. Don't you ever think that placing rules or guidelines on me will stop me. Tank won't kill Summer. Not because he has a heart or cares for her, but because I'm me. I'm frost, the chosen one of the frost clan. You are nothing more than a bad cursed child, born into this era where you don't belong. You caused this mess and I'm here to clean it up."
Everyone readied themselves, as the beast grew louder. "I'll show you all…just how foolish you are to come at me!" Frost had only moved his hands an inch, Tank immediately tried to crush Summer, but his hand was frozen in place. Frost revealed one of his perfect snowflake eyes, freezing the ground and entire space instantly.
Frost traveled across the great field with great speeds, as he had only 0.1 seconds to move before his ice dissapeared. As he crossed over, Adisa, somehow moved while others were frozen and slammed his sword into Frost's sword, their impact caused a great explosion that knocked everyone away.
(He moves while in the frozen state?) Frost thought as he flipped and turned his body, landing on both feet. Adisa's sword was now closing in at Frost's face, his blade making contact with Frost's skin. Frost reacted in time, freezing Adisa's blade in place and launching himself away once again.
The mythical beast behind Frost rushed in and charged at everyone from multiple angles. Adisa ignored the beast and kept his eyes on Frost. Quickly slicing down multiple beast who tried to attack him. "Froooost!!!"
Before Adisa could do anything, his body was trapped in place. Green aura surrounded his body as he felt this before.
Summer floated above him and in the air. She launched herself at Adisa and punched him in the face, pushing him into the ground. As Adisa was surrounded by dirt, he used his aura to explode and push it all out of the way. Adisa emerged from the ground, his black aura covering him and making him seem like an angry monster wanting to kill.
Frost and Summer stood side-by-side, looking up at him.
"Adisa…you knew this was coming." Frost said as he held out his hand, making a ball of energy.
"Hmph. Let's get the real fight started then." Adisa replied, his energy rising. Before any of them could do anything, it was like something faster than the speed of light came flying through the massive fight.
Beast were blown away as Wonder appeared Adisa at incredible speed.
Everything moved in slow motion to Adisa, as the king glared at him, opened his mouth, and released his claws, ready to rip Adisa apart.
Just as Wonder swiped down at him, a portal opened up, sucking Adisa inside of it.
*****
"Rrraaaauuuggghhh!!!!" Joster yelled, his body was in pain, bleeding from his eyes, mouth, and ears.
Ellowyn moved a few feet away and only watched in awe. (In…incredible. His motivation stems more from something else, not just him wanting to not be a coward. What is this? This emotion?)
Thousands of portals opened in the sky and all over earth, as the pain only increased more and more. (It hurts. But I can't give up! Push! Open the portals and save them! If I fail here…I'll get you killed, sister! That's right. Jade. Heh…why…am I thinking of her at a time like this? You've always been the favorite. Dad loves you, no matter what. I hated you for the longest. Because our mother died giving birth to you. I hated you for so long….and I…just recently started to love you. Sorry for being such a crappy brother. I put my faith and life…into you!)
"Aaauuugghhhh!!!!!!!!"
******
Frost and everyone was shocked to see hundreds of more portals open up, revealing a multiple massive lion beings flying out of them and spreading across the entire 2nd zone.
"The portals!" Colt said.
"HELL YEAH!!! You all are screwd now!!"Jericho yelled, raising his sword in the air.
Widow held onto the baby tight, protecting it from flying debris. "Finally…" she said softly.
"Do not stop!" Rogue yelled amongst the chaos. "From all the people in this group, we need to reassure that the right people go back to earth!"
Jerome looked at Aubrie and Colt. "You two need to get a move on!" Jerome said as he sliced the head off of a weak beast. "But-"
"No! Hurry up, Aubrie. I swear I'll find you. Take care of my sister, Colt or I'll kill you!"
"Need to hurry, Widow. Take that child and get back to earth." Rogue ordered her as he ran at the army of beast.
"Be safe here, Splinter. Please…come back." Elizabeth whispered as she watched Splinter slicing at beast in the crowd. Elizabeth jumped through the portal and began falling from the sky and over the island.
Blizzard shoved Sleet quickly into the portal, before she could even utter a word. The original plan, was to have Blizzard sent back to earth, to preserve the frost bloodline. "Blizzard!!!" Sleet screamed as she fell from the sky. Jack ran and leaped into a portal that led into the Nomain universe/world. "Crazy so of a-"
Blizzard stopped himself as he noticed a beast behind him, shooting him away with a powerful beam.
"Ahahaha! Let's kill some beast brother!" Plus laughed as Minus carried Ocean on his back and ran behind him towards the army of beast.
(This is part of it. The plan. Joster really did it! I always knew you could. I'm proud of you, brother!)
******
Joster held out both his arms, straining against the pain and burning. Ellowyn stepped foward a little, admiring his courage. "Ellowyn!" Joster yelled, still holding the portals open.
"Y-yes?"
"When you get in there…tell Jade…tell her I'm sorry. F-for everything."
"I…will."
"Thank you….now go. Hurry up and enter…before it's too late! GO! GET OUT OF HERE!!" Joster yelled, the portal opened even larger in front of them. Ellowyn could see the large army of beast and everyone fighting below within the portal. Ellowyn stepped forward and took one last glance back at Joster, their long blond hair swaying with the wind. "You aren't a rat. I was wrong. You're…brave." Ellowyn said as they jumped into the portal.
*******
White. Nothing but white and her in my arms with my father a standing over my shoulder. I'm hugging this child. This child that I hate, but deep down…love with all my heart and being. Why didn't I…just do that from the beginning? Why did I have to…be such…a fool? Well, it's too late, I guess. Jade, I…I'm gonna really miss you, sis.
*****
Joster lowered both his arms and dropped his head, taking his last breath. He was now dead….
