Chereads / The Rare Blood / Chapter 4 - Vroxious?

Chapter 4 - Vroxious?

"Vroxious Calamity," Vel'gonnun breathed, Looking at his mighty King.

"Vroxious? Who?" Talia asked, staring at vel.

King turned to Vel and said, "Go stop him, take our warriors and don't let him in."

"Okay, my king," he said. Smoke covered him like a shield and in just a blink of an eye, He completely turned into a demon.

A ball in the desolation, a burst of fire, and suddenly King and Talia were confronted with a fearsome being of sickness and decay. Two fuming eyes stare at them with staggering energy, and another bawl echoes from its serrated mouth with unimaginable force. Flickering, glowing fire adorns its shrunken head, which itself is scarred all over. Thick snot escapes the creature's skewed nostrils set within a withered nose.

Its shrunken head sits atop a tall, blubbery body. Shadowy curls coil around its torso,

The creature turned towards the king and bowed his head, two draconic wings extend themselves fully. Jagged bones and feathers of bone stretch upward as if just waking up. Vel's stare becomes more and more menacing with every second.

He stretched his wings and flew in the air and using his full power he flew down into the earth, creating a big hole, the king watches him disappear into the ground and can feel him reaching Vroxious, He hears Vel calling all his men through the mind link. Galactus turns towards Talia who was staring at a deep big hole in front of her which had been caused by Vel'gonnun.

"Talia," He called, she turned to him and asked, "Yes, My King?"

"Come, help me create a barrier," he said, walking towards the hallway, Talia nodded and followed him.

The creator of life walked to the end of the hallway and summoned his power. He put his hands forward and released powerful magic which burst out from his hands and formed a big invisible wall in front of them. The power of the wall was emitting from it, the creator of life continued to release the power which made the invisible wall even stronger, Talia with her divine power helped Galactus. She used her magic to make the barrier even stronger than before, not even air can pass through it. Their magic has made the air around them very thick.

***

The Shield around the brothers was so thick that they couldn't see or hear what's happening outside, Arius was continuously sending his rare power to his mother through Joshua. The power of Arius made Joshua weak by passing seconds, but the healing power sent by Raphael and Lucian was also curing him in no time.

All of a sudden Lucian feels a very dark power emitting through the ground under his feet, the power of the dark magic made plants around them turn brown and dry out. He can feel the pain and cries of trees and birds and animals around them. He opened his eyes and looked at his brothers who were completely concentrating on their work.

"Lucian" called Raphael through the mind link.

"Yes, Brother?" replied Lucian.

"Is there a problem?" He asked, sensing the tension in his body.

"Yes...I feel some dark power in our kingdom, and I can feel the pain of animals and plants because of the dark power, brother."

Hearing this Raphael opened his eyes, instantly he could feel the change in the air. He can feel the dark magic coming towards them; He turned to look at Lucian and saw his eyes completely turned into a green colour.

"Brother, we need to stop it," said Lucian to Raphael through the mind link.

"We can't brother if we stop it, the pain may increase ten times more than usual pains" replied Raphael.

They looked at each other confused with the current situation.

****

Galactus and Talia continued to make the wall stronger and stronger, all of a sudden a man dressed in a black long coat came into their view. The man was tall and had a muscular body.

"Who is he?" Asked Talia curiously.

He calmly climbed the stairs, Galactus sensed that something was wrong with him. That man's head was down and wasn't clear to recognize. Every step he takes echoed through the hallway; the air was thick around them. They were curiously waiting to see who he was. He climbed the last step while slowly raising his head with a smirk on his face. He was very handsome with a hard, sharp jawline, tousled dark brown hair, which was thick and lustrous.

His eyes were a mesmerizing deep ocean blue, flecks of silvery light performed ballets throughout. His face was strong and defined, his features melded from granite. He had dark eyebrows, which sloped downwards in a serious expression. His lips had drawn into a hard line across his face.

"Vroxious?" Galactus whispered.

Vroxious walked to the barrier and moved his hand from left to right in a half-circle by which the air changed the invisible wall into visible, it was glowing in light blue colour. Galactus was taken aback by him, Talia turned to look at Galactus in surprise.

Vroxious raised his left hand up in the air and snapped his fingers, there was a loud sound of a heavy object being dragged towards them.

It was dragged all the way up to the stairs, it was a big cage. All the warriors and guards were trapped inside with big metal chains around them. He even trapped Vel with a big silver chain full of fire, which was pulling him into the ground whenever he tried to wiggle out of it.

"All these poor tricks won't stop me Galactus, I'm here to take what's rightfully mine," said Vroxious in such a deep voice which makes everyone around him have goosebumps.

"You're never going to get what you want Vroxious, I order you to go back to where you came from," Galactus said in an intimidating tone. It was a direct command of the creator of life.

Vroxious raised his perfect thick dark left eyebrow in a way that every female on the realm would lust over his simple action, "Do you really think I would listen to you," He said with a mocking smile.

He turned his gaze on the wall while raising a long finger, tracing the now visible wall, "What is this? (looks at Galactus with an unimpressed expression)...Do you call this a barrier?" He said pushing his finger inside the wall skillfully.

Galactus and Talia looked at each other, immediately they stretched their hands forward. They summoned their power and pushed it through their hands to make the barrier even more powerful, but the smirk on Vroxius's face grows big. He effortlessly pushed his right hand up and moves it in a small circle, while he does that, Black rays forms around his hands, he then pushes his hand forward.

The black rays hurried to the wall in a very effective way, it creates a powerful impact on the wall. The impact destroys the wall and makes Talia and King Galactus fall a few feet away from there. It also disturbed the brothers. The shield around them was destroyed because of the powerful impact. The violent shake of the ground made them stumble upon each other.

Arius stood up and helped his brothers to stand up on their feet, they looked around to see all the photo frames on the ground scattered into pieces and the ground had cracks.

"What's happening?" Arius asked, looking at his brothers,

Lucian raised his head up, his eyes completely turned into a darker shade of green.

"I can feel it coming near to us Brothers," he said turning towards the hallway,

Arius turned to look at Lucian and immediately understood what he meant, He opened his mouth to speak, all of the sudden Queen Zunelia' s Loud scream echoed in the palace.

"Oh No, Mother! (turning towards the door) Come on Joshua; we need to continue this… You two go take care of it," Arius said while turning towards Joshua and holding his hands.

"Okay brother," said Raphael, He used his magic and created a powerful shield around Joshua and Arius.

Arius summoned his energy and released it slowly so that Joshua couldn't get hurt by it. They continued the process.

***

Raphael and Lucian ran towards the impact and saw Vroxious walking to his father who was trying to get up but miserably failing at it.

Lucian immediately understands that the dark magic was coming from him, Lucian quickly bent down on the ground. His head raised up and eyes turned into green orbs, While Raphael by using his Fire bending magic created a wave of fire that directly hit Vroxious.

While Vroxious was in the air, A very strong and huge root of a tree caught him and wrapped itself around him. It pulled him outside the palace and threw him like a piece of paper. Before he could hit the ground, he used his power and landed safely on the ground.

*****

"Father" Raphael and Lucian ran to his father and helped him while Raphael helped Talia.

"Who is he, Father?" Lucian asked Galactus.

"He's Vroxious; He is here to take your unborn sibling. We shouldn't let that happen," he said while standing on his feet,

"What!" Lucian and Raphael yelled at a time.

"Oh! What a lovely father and son Trio," Vroxious said while walking towards them.

Galactus turned to his sons and said, "Stop him, do not let him in."

Galactus then turned to Talia and said "You need to leave this place, dear…(Talia tries to say something) No! No questions asked... It's my order" For which Talia nodded and walked away from there. Galactus Then turns to his sons and asks "You know what to do!" For which Raphael and Lucian nodded and turned their heads towards Vroxious.

Galactus quickly walked inside to Arius and Joshua, He can see the shield hiding them from the outside world. He quickly reached them and dismissed the shield, Arius and Joshua opened their eyes in confusion.

"Stop this and go help your brothers," he said, grabbing their hands, Joshua opened his mouth to say something but Galactus cut him off by saying "Vroxious came here to claim the unborn child, we can't let that happen. Go help your brothers in defeating him... Go!"

He said, they nodded their heads and turned around.

"Arius!"

Arius stopped while Joshua ran to his brothers. He walked to his father, "You know what to do if you can't defeat him" Galactus said, Arius immediately understood what he meant and nodded at his father.

****

"So, you're going to defeat me?" Vroxious asked, staring at Lucian and Raphael.

Pointing at Lucian, he said, "You're an earth bender!" pointing at Raphael, "you're a fire bender...where are the others? I would like to meet them too." He said with a sinister smirk on his face.

"We are here!" Said Joshua walking towards his brothers followed by Arius behind him.

"Oh! The air and water benders...Hello there, Nice to meet you," He said with a mocking smile on his face,

"Nice to meet you too, Calamity," said Arius.

"We'll give you one more chance.. Yield and we will show you mercy," said Raphael,

Vroxious burst into laughter, his laugh echoed in the silent hallway. After controlling himself, He said "That was the funniest joke I ever heard in my entire life" The brothers looked at each other, confusion written all over their faces.

All of a sudden Vroxious used dark magic and pulled Raphael towards him in the air and threw him out of the palace. Raphael roughly landed on the ground; His royal clothes were torn because of the impact.

Arius immediately summoned his power of Air bending and created a very powerful blow and sent it towards Vroxious, but He douched it easily. Lucian uses his earth bending power by pulling his legs more into the surface, Lucian smirked at him and flew in the air, this shocked the brothers.

"And the motherfucker can fly" muttered Lucian irritated by him.

"Language Lucian," said Arius.

Joshua immediately moved his hands and broke the taps in the kitchen, water flowed from the broken taps as he controlled the water, made a big wave of water, and pushed it towards Vroxious.

Vroxious immediately created an invisible shield and put it in front of him, which made the water flow sideways without a single drop on him.

****

Galactus rushed inside the Queen's room and saw the shield still protecting the Queen; he immediately understood who did this and smiled proudly. The Healers were all unconscious and were laying on the ground. Galactus walked over the Queen's bed and released the shield around her; the Queen was unconscious with a baby wrapped in a white cloth laid beside her.

He walked over the baby and lifted in his arms.

The baby was looking at him with big green eyes, the baby was smiling and kicking his chest. He kissed the baby's forehead and said,

"I'll protect you from every single thing, I promise you."

He turned to look at his wife, "I'm sorry, Zunelia please forgive me, I have to do this for the safety of our child, I'm so sorry," He said and kissed her forehead, He then turned around and created a portal.

The portal opened and the creator of Life walked inside with the newborn to an unknown place.

****

Every single trick they tried failed, the brothers understood that Vroxious was very powerful, the dark magic within him was actually coming from their attacks. The amount of magic they sent to him through an attack was completely observed by him.

He wasn't exhausted because he was gaining energy from those attacks and it's impossible to defeat him. Galactus knows this and that's the reason he wasn't attacking him in the first place. He made sure to make Vroxious busy and meanwhile he would protect the child from The Gaping Igniter.

Arius understood his father's word's and turned to look at his brothers who were breathing hard and their bodies contained many bruises, he could feel their exhaustion. He took a deep breath while stretching his hands forward and making a full circle with his hands from either side, he folded all his fingers other than his thumb finger of his right hand, forming a thumb sign, he placed his right hand on his left open palm, touching it firmly to his chest. He stood straight and closed his eyes, while he opened his mouth and chatted a spell.

Vroxious calmly stands in front of the brothers and watches Arius chanting some spells. He was unbothered and believed that he could handle whatever Arius was trying to do. As he can see something changes the air around him, He turns back to see a big portal opened. Inside the portal was leading to something which was dark and there was no light at all, it was completely black and the darkness was flowing inside like a wave of water.

He turned back to Arius and understood that Arius was trying to capture him. Before he could do anything the Slash of water hit him. Joshua continued hitting him with water, Raphael summoned his fire energy and hit Vroxious with dark flames continuously without stopping for a second.

Vroxious put his legs firmly on the ground and used his dark power to hold him still on the ground so that he couldn't fall into the portal, He raised his hand and tried to create a shield. All of a sudden A divine power hit him hard, he stumbled backwards, but quickly balanced himself. He was just two feet away from the portal, and Vroxious immediately understood that it was The Creator of Life.

Galactus walked gracefully towards his sons, He along with Raphael and Joshua hit Vroxious continuously. While Galactus with great difficulty moved Vroxious into the air, Lucian quickly used his hands and made a huge branch of the tree hit Vroxious very forcefully. The impact made Vroxious fall directly into the portal. Arius immediately closed the portal and chatted a few spells of the prison realm, where dark creatures and people who got banished by God's are kept.

*****

Arius opened his eyes and turned to look at his Brothers and found them smiling at him, He then turned to Galactus.

The brothers immediately walked to Galactus and asked for their newborn Sibling.

"The baby is safe," is all he says before walking away.

Days passed, No one other than Galactus knows about the baby, He made sure that no one knows about it. They don't even know the gender of the baby.
