Rise Of A Fallen God

"What is your name young Guardian? Can you or I recreate everything I destroyed!!? ... No we can not and her condition is going to be the same without me saving her so what will you do now." I say to the Guardian before me.

She tells me her name Aisha, I then sit a few feet away from the protective girl and her master.

Thinking to to myself if I should just risk it all and kill them both, one of my eyes can still see their essence and that is all I need to erase them. Activating my ability once more will alert her, can she kill me in a instant this I am unsure of. I don"t have much time left sleep calls me once again.

Meaning I have to take a gamble in saving that Guardians master, getting up I hear her m.u.f.fled voice calling me a Child asking if I am strong enough and am I willing to save her master. My hearing also being affected means I have less time to fix things before I reenter my long sleep, wasting no more time I agree to save Teressa before collapsing into the arms of Aisha.

"Don"t go back on your word, you may be born like the True G.o.ds but even I know that you are something else. If you fail to save my master I will hunt you for all eternity! Now tell me what must I do to help you save her!!"

Punching my hand through her chest I smile at her regretful face before pulling it out. "This will allow you to use my powers and link our minds, what I have given you is a piece of me allowing you to temporarily become my Guardian." Saying this I fall to the floor unable to move preventing the slumber that tugs at me while showing her what she must do.

She first takes the silver orb from within the dead Creed before bringing it to me, this will give me the required power to do what I must. Taking the orb into my chest both my green eyes shine a dull silver color, once more able to stand on my own I look over to Aisha as the hopeful look on her face makes me turn my head as I head towards Teressa. What did she promise me if I was able to save her master anyway, and how much of information did she gain from me? Does she know what I am.

No she would not allow me near Teressa if she knew of my past, struggling to stand I arrive at the floating body of Teressa. From Crest"s memories I know this one broke down mentally after a "few" years of an endless war that the young candidates fought in, looking through her memories I see no one suitable to inherit it. "Is this batch another failure? I guess this one will make due for now she is also the one chosen as my opposite this time." I say as I turn my head back and call Aisha to drag her dying a.s.s over here before I fall into my slumber.

It"s a good thing she brought that dead Creed with her, taking out a pulsing green orb from my chest I place it into the dead body of the Creed. As his body starts to disintegrate the body of Crest takes its place, she won"t wake up but she is a needed piece for this plan to work. Carrying Crest on my back I place my head against Teressa"s, the fastest way to clear her mind of her insanity is to absorb it into myself.

Taking her mind filled with madness and chaos I being absorbing it into my own, as I begin the process the minds of those that lost their life to the Creed surge into my mind. It"s no wonder she went insane she tried to create a cycle of rebirth for the many mortals, True G.o.ds and Guardians who lost their lives during the war. The memories, regrets, hatred, sadness, and rage from so many corrupted her mind slowly over the years just before she completed the system.

Impressive maybe I have found someone to Inherit your power after all, as my eyes snap open the link between my mind and Teressa"s pa.s.ses all her burden to me as I try to cleanse her mind of the corruption. Looking at me worried Aisha warnes me to not become like Teressa I laugh at her advice not to look down on her but she doesn"t know this little bit of war is not even one percent of what I have went through. Finishing the task before me I can no longer delay what is to come as I sink into my slumber.

As my body begins to return to the Void I tell Aisha that if we ever meet again she can tell me what I failed to hear when I agreed to save Teressa, she does not understand why the Void starts to pour out from me I just smile at her as my eyes shut only to be opened again when I must restart everything again or when my equal Teressa awakens.

Which of these things will happen first does not matter to me I have been repeating this step for so long that I have come to expect it.

As she watches me become a giant ma.s.s of energy she watches as Crest along with the green orb merge into me, as she makes her way over to Teressa her body begins to fade away. Looking at me she sees the silver orb shoot into Teressa"s chest before she too becomes a ma.s.s of energy, she is then drawn into the ma.s.s that now surrounds Teressa. Before her eyes she watches as silver and green pulse in the empty Void, making out the form of Crest from within the green ma.s.sive orb she watches as Crest is pushed out of the orb. She comes to realize this is how Guardians come to be and that she too is being pushed out of the silver orb. Unable to move she falls into a deep sleep, as her mind is still active she watches as the waves of excess energy begins to recreate everything that was lost in the old world.

.....

As I come back to the present I now have 5 percent of my entire memory but before I can even celebrate it I come to find myself holding on to the neck of Teressa. Coming back to my senses I loosen my grip around her neck, finding Ibrahim in the air above using ma.s.sive familiar chains against me. Having them wrap around my neck, arms and legs restricting my power and preventing movement, when they notice the change in me my Domain forces the chains to shatter causing them to panic, both Ibrahim and Valara move to aid Teressa if I charge at her again while the rest surround me.

"Relax! And tell me what color were my eyes when I lost control." I say to the army that has surrounded me, looking down I see Lime Leaf in ruins. Looking around I find Three Suns with a hole in his chest similar to the one I gave Aisha in the Dream, seems I need to bring him back to life after things settle down.

"Relax!! Don"t spout s.h.i.t Dashnell you nearly destroyed everything on this planet look around you, look at all the loss of life you caused if the things inside your head make you lose control why be around people at all!" Valara shouts at me not putting down her weapon.

They can"t be killed by me and likewise they can not kill me another effect my power through the bond grants, not dying does not mean they don"t feel pain. I sit down in the air and let a drop of my blood fall to the ground, the sound of shattering gla.s.s is then heard by everyone as before their eyes the once ruined city littered with the dead is no more. Staring at me in shock Teressa falls to her knees as she cries once more when she sees her cycle of rebirth come into effect before her very eyes, as I allow the memories to flood into the minds of everyone I tear open s.p.a.ce which leads deep into the Void. Before I can take a step into it Crest, Valara, Samara and Teressa block my path.

"Where do you think you are going!?"

"We won"t allow you to run!"

"Finally we are together I won"t let you leave me this time!"

"Face us Dashnell did we not work together those years ago!"

..... Still sitting down I stare at what they can not see, before I close the tear I look at Crest to see her reaction to find she just like the others can not see it. As the tear closes I notice the shock on Ibrahim"s face, this brings a smile to my face before I fall through the roof of the Palace and into the arms of the girls.

.....

Back in the world of dreams that lock away my memories.

This time I make sure to keep an "eye" on my body that sleeps in the real world as I explore the endless halls that tell the story of my lonely life as the only living Guardian looking for someone to inherit the silver orb within my hand.
