Darkness everywhere, I can no longer tell how much time has elapsed but I remeber that fateful day that changed everything.
"WAKE UP AND GET MOVING!" rings in my ears with a raspy voice as I slowly open my eyes and see my surroundings, Mountain terrain completely devastated as the far as the eye can see, black dirt just layers the ground with clear skys. But then I noticed all the humongous trees at least two thousand feet tall, just towering overhead and from the look of it all of the trees have not a single branch or leaf. As I start to slowly stretch my body a deep cold sensation starts pulsing first from my left foot as all my strength in that foot disappears, then my right! Fear, terror fills my mind as I quickly realized that my legs are chained and connected from both my ankles and all the way up to my wrists with a deep sparkly blue shine. Just like my legs I feel the pulsing chill up my arms. Terror fill my mind again as I scream as loud as I possibly can! "WHY, WHAT DID I DO! WHY AM I SO WEAK!"
As I listen to my voice I realize that I cant hear anything! As I try to talk again but to no avail. As my mind is in chaos I fail to realize the figure in black start running over to me as he yells "I said MOVE!" as his leg moves as fast is lightning and strikes my chest. From the impact alone my body flys back five feet as my chest feel as if it's on fire and start coughing blood, but not a noise was heard. Barely able to move, the Figure appears right next to me as he grabs some of the hair on my head and throws me thirteen feet away as I slide into one of the many trees with my back. At this point I can barely breathe as I feel that the amount of oxygen I'm getting is close to none, I reach out with my hand to push against the tree, I feel as I'm shocked by the fact that the tree was a cold piece of bedrock that formed a spike instead of a tree and with a diameter of ten feet and a circumference of thirty. As I finally regain my breath I see that there are three other chained creatures with three other hooded figures with a completely black cloak with grayish black and white smoke cloud that seem to be emitting for where their feet should be. Out of no where the black figure that has kick you once before has appeared next to you once again as he grabs you from your hair once more. Every thing blurs around you as you appear next to the other creatures that you can now identify as a pitch black panther about six feet in hight and eight feet in length with lightning strikes of neon green painting down it's back. Eyes just like the color of the green neon. Just like your self it's hands and feet were also bound with a chain but you instantly noticed that it's chain was a bright fire red color that pulsed with heat that you could feel. To the right of the panther was what seemed to be a vermillion reddish snake that seem to had a speck of gold shine that protruded from it's forehead. Its body langth twelve feet long with thickness of at least one for and a half. As you focuse on its mouth you see that its fangs are layered to that of a shark with each producing a sharp dreadful fealing. Starting to move down on body I see the golden choker like necklace binding its body. Lastly I look over only to find my self at a loss of thought, having a hard time understanding what I'm looking at.
"Can that really be a skeleton in beat up leather armor?" Then I eyed his waist, I could see a sword that was broken three inches form the hilt of the blade. The blade width wasn't over five inches if not less with all the chips. The handle rusted to the point that it looked to be breaking down but seemed to have a sign of some sort of diagram close to the hilt. The skeleton head abruptly turn is head to look right at me, and from deep within the eye sockets could be seen a small orange flame that burned peacefully. Just like the rest of us had pure black chains rapping its hands and feet.
As a hissing sound came forth from the hooded figure in front of the vermillion snake "Finally we all arrived, now let's leave" "We have spent to much time in this place, if we stay much longer we might be noticed by their defendersss"
"Hurry up and start opening the portal then!" snapped the hooded figure in front of the black and green panther, with a voice that seemed to over power anyone. "Shadow two start with the design.
"Yes Shadow one!" rasply spoke the figure holding my head by my hair, dropped me as he ran to the side as he started to draw something on the ground.
"Next shadow three find the right combination and shadow four you keep the baggage and if any fuck off, then put them on their place. do I make my self clear." Calmly spoke Shadow one.
"Okay, okay I get it make sure none move, got it." Seemed to come out of the voice of shadow four who was in front the skeleton. A sudden thought passed my mind as I look at shadow four. "Kinda seems more immature compared with the rest of them." But then fury erupted in my mind "How could this happen to me I dont even know where I am! all I remember.... THERES NOTHING! Just nothing! What happened why can't I remember? So many questions I cant answer... I should forget about them for now. Right! What my name again?" I start trying really hard to remember what my name was. Time continues to pass for the rest of the day.
"HEY!" Yells shadow four "Hurry up and get a move on the portals open and will only last for a couple minutes! Move!"
We all start to move forward but because my body is so weak I'm having a hard time even walking and at this point, that I was starting to considerably fall behind. I lift my head to stare at the portal only to see a bright white light that blinds my pupils as I close my eyes as I walk forward.
"What the hell is with that guy" chuckles Shadow four and the figure sways and disappears to reappear right behind me.
"WIND SHADOW PALM"
Shadow four softly whispered behind me. Shadow four palm landed right in the middle of my back and with a gust of wind tore off all the skin that slammed into the tree and shot me right at the blinding light. The pain of having all my skin torn off my back starts to increase as my body flys to the light. My mind running at an incredible rate suddenly freezes. "My name is Bruce" Right as my body was about to touch the light, a hand grabbed a hold of my arm and stopped my forward momentum with perfect control to not worsen my condition. Shadow one held onto my arm and look right at my back to see all the skin was torn off by looks like sharp wind like blades.
"You used a Martial Art?!" bellowed Shadow one "How could you! I told you to watch them not to kill them! UGH... Why must you do this." Shadow one sighed at the end. he reached into his sleave to pull out what seem to be a pill of some sort. He shoved the pill ball into my mouth and made me sallow it. By this point because of the excruciatingly pain in my back I started to pass out as I heard a yell and then some orb just shoved into my mouth and desoveled and with it i could feel my whole back start to head up as I finally passed out.
"Shadow troops let's go now." Shadow one spoke as he started to walk into the light carrying onto my body to disappear, and as the finale shadow troop member moved onto the light it did one last final glow before it dimmed until there was nothing there just some unique runes.
Not even a day later a figured fully capped in a white suit of armor appeared where the portal was. Swung their right arm in the air as deformations like ripples start to occur in the air around their hand. "I guess I'm a day late. Mission Failed" before his voice disappeared, he was already gone.
In the middle of the desert a bright white light appears and the four shadow troops can be seen walking out. First was carrying a man in his arms and he was extremely careful not to sway him around as he walked. Next came shadow two with the black panther that has the neon green stripes. Then came the skeleton with the leather armor barely hanging over he bone shoulders. Right behind the skeleton was shadow four who leisurely followed behind. Lastly came out the vermillion snake with the gold glow, that accompanied by shadow three who instantly started started to work on the next combination for the teleport. Shadow two runs over to start working as well.
Shadow one looked right at all the creatures with chains and softly laughed "Welcome! First you are all soul creatures and we have taken you, haha we have brought you all from a place that we do not speak of." Instantly shadow one voice became strick "All I can say is that it is forbidden zone" Finally he looks at me and shakes his head, "I'm not sure where you come from but because we found you we shall bring you."
"Shadow one the first portal is opened to the demon beast sub sect!" Yells shadow two and three from the ground a bright white light appears again and this time has a noticeable about of red in the light as well.
"Shadow three what nature zone is it located?" Inquired Shadow one. Shadow three quickly responds with "The fire zone"
"Good send the snake there" Spoke shadow one" Hurry up and make the next two. First the darke zone for the panther, then the undead kingdom for the skeleton. Oh yeah don't forget to take the chains off them off them after the bindings done." Finally he looked at the unconscious body he was carrying, as he look at the back he could see that the skin was almost fully healed as he sighed in relief "I guess the rank three healing pill was worth it." After a about another hour passed by Shadow three yelled once again "The next two portals have been opened! Where do you want me to open for the boy?"
" Hmm....no need for a portal, he will be coming with us. I believe that he can have talents to be used at the training arena, so I will have it set up that he will work their as a opponent and as a sparring partner." Shadow one finished saying all of this in a single breath.
"WAIT YOUR GOING TO BRING THAT UNLESS GUY BACK" Shadow four instantly bursted out "HE CAN BARELY TAKE A HIT FROM ME"
Shadow one slowly shook his head, as he said confidently "He took a hit from you and you have already awakened and train for two years not only that but you also use a martial art, and he still breathes to tell the tell. Do you understand now! He has potential to become great." Shadow four was stunned not know what to say, finally all that came out was "When do we leave?"
Shadow one instantly replied "Now, Shadow troops move."
