No one would have believed that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences and power greater than man's, perhaps even immortal; as men busied themselves about their various concerns, they were being observed and studied. With infinite desire men went to and fro over this globe about their little affairs, with a little worry about powers outside of the world. It is possible that the ants we observe would be the same as us.
No one gave a thought to the older worlds of space as sources of human danger, or thought of them only to dismiss the idea of life upon them as impossible. At most people fancied there might be creatures on the other planets, perhaps inferior to themselves. But little did they understand the mysteriousness of this universe, its marvels and hegemons.
"Is this small blue dot the location of key and next war?" an emotionless sound inquired. His figure appeared blurry and small in the endless space. No response came to his question, neither did he further ask. His figure transformed into a ray of light as he disappeared in the direction of a blue dot in the dark space, Earth.

"Brother Jorell the gathering was quite nice; say did you get your eyes on some girl?" teased Raudra as he walked side by side with Jorell.
"Stop playing around Raudra, you know they all are big sisters of ours." Jorell rolled his eyes at the silly brother of his.
"Bro with your godly powers, you sure can get some catch." Raudra didn't back out as he believed in his brothers pick up arts.
"I can barely make things shake, what godly powers." Jorell sighed looking at his hands.
Jorell could move things since he was a kid although a little bit but that still was different from normal people. It was something you only see in sci-fi movies.
"Still man nobody can do that so you are special." as Raudra chattered along they arrived at a hotel, moon palace.
"Stop with this nonsense, it's already late, go and sleep, meet you tomorrow then" Jorell patted Raudra's shoulder as he walked away. His tall and sturdy figure disappearing in the crowd on the street.
Raudra walked in his room and without bothering to change clothes he jumped straight into bed. He wandered into his dreamlands quickly as he was tired, but what he didn't know that this would be his last normal sleep.
...…..
Ouch man my head hurts. Raudra held his head as he gazed around the room he was in, it was quite… strange. It wasn't the hotel room of his, not even a room he knew, there was no one around him but from the way things looked and how things were in order and at appropriate place, it definitely was a girl's room.
*Creak*
A door slowly opened behind him as a girl walked out, air around her full of moisture, Raudra had his jaw dropped and eyes wide as he had never seen a girl so beautiful in his life. Although he had seen many beauties on internet and media, but this face was no different from the celestial beauty in heavens.
As Raudra gazed at her dumbfounded, the girl also saw Raudra. She was startled at first to find another person in her room, but seeing that she was still in loose robes, her face turned red as she ran back to the bathroom door while screaming for help. Her cry woke up Raudra from his thoughts as he shouted, "Hey! Wait! Who are you and where am I?" but to his disappointment the girl didn't reply and simply was shouted, calling for help.
To her cries some people really came, they looked servants from their clothing. "Ma'am what happened?" one of them asked with a bit of worry.
"T-there's someone in my room, can't you see him?" the girl worriedly asked.
The servants suspicious and concerned at this looked around the room, while Raudra approached one of them to clarify what's happening, but strangely the man didn't notice him and walked straight through him. "Hey! Um… what?" Raudra tried to stop the man but strangely the servant didn't reply and just walked around searching for 'him'. To his surprise he found that the man couldn't see him.
"Ma'am there isn't anything here, it might be your imagination." one of the servants answered as he walked out of the room. "Should we bring the food in or will you come down?" politely asked the maid who had an apron on.
"Okay, I will come down when I feel like eating." The girl still not convinced peaked around her room. This time she was in proper clothes. A blue dress with her long hairs reaching her back.
This time she saw Raudra again there in her room but strangely she didn't scream or shout, she just rubbed her eyes and continued forward. 'Gosh I am dreaming again, I have to ignore this I guess' she thought as she walked to her drawer.
"Um, hey erm, can you tell me where am I?" Raudra questioned as he grabbed her shoulder.
The girl stiffened and trembled ever so slightly but didn't turn back. "N-No you aren't real, it's just my imagination." Raudra laughed as he replied "Man, even I am thinking this is my imagination but it still hurts if I pinch myself. My name's Raudra and you?"
The girl turned back still horrified but as she looked into Raudra's eyes she suddenly turned stiff as a statue.
"Hey I am talking to you!" Raudra demanded as he shook his hand in front of her.
But to his shock he realized that she seemed frozen, not only her the leaves of the tree outside the window, were still as if the time has stopped.
Before he could realize the whole situation, he blanked out.
...
Unknown space
"Ah! My head. Why the fck is the day so strange today?!?!" "Where is teleportation so easy nowadays?" Raudra was never a normal person. He always had an incomprehensible sense of weird humor.
He looked around but he couldn't see anything other than darkness.
As his train of thoughts ran wild a deep coarse voice sounded as if metals ringing. "Ukero shi jua tan"
"W-who are you?" Raudra obviously became a bit terrified and afraid blurted the question out of his mind.
"So you are my inheritor, good-good, and a decent soul" the voice continued in the language he could understand. Suddenly a huge eye appeared as the voice continued, a blood red eye which extended to an incomprehensible height, came in his sight, the voice seemingly was coming from there.
Raudra tried to speak but he found that no voice was coming out from his throat.
"I am a king, the decimator king as for my origin you aren't qualified to know yet, the world which you saw till now and your loved ones they would never be the same, and neither would be the world. This world is in process of a change, a big one at that, but you should consider yourself fortunate that at least the kings came here first not the devils" as this information appeared in Raudra's mind, his eye started losing focus, as in process of some comprehension.
"Let's see what is in your fate."
After a certain time which seemed like years in Raudra's mind, he gained his consciousness again. With the clearance of his clouded mind came a piercing pain. "Arghh, what shit inheritance gives so much pain. Don't tell me it's some torture master job I am getting."
"Hm? What a weird fellow, to dare speak like this in front of a king you are first" the metallic voice seemed as if almost laughing.
"Now then let's check what inheritance you received." the eye radiated an intense light as in midst of scanning and uncovering all the secrets Raudra had. "If u gave me the inheritance then how come you don't know what you gave me?!? Is this a scam?" Raudra asked still in midst of pain
The voice replied as if a bit irritated now "You little brat, I did say it's on fate." "Oh you have extinction factor, should I consider you lucky for this or unlucky sigh Lucky as you inherited a major art but unlucky because I myself am unable to use this art."
Raudra looked at the eye as if in deep thoughts as his expression changed "what the fck? This is a scam how is it lucky when I can't even use it?"
"You little brat think about it for a minute I never said that you couldn't use it, if you inherited it then there must be a way, either way this is enough for our first meeting, now go back to the key."
"Hey, wait" his voice couldn't reach its destination as he was plunged into darkness. In his mind there were many questions, although he found one person or seemingly not a person who could answer his questions, now even he was gone.
"Argh!" there was only one thought in his mind as of the moment 'why the hell this hurts so much which person made this teleportation function so badly!' Though he was in pain, he continued to look around; he recognized this seemingly familiar and unfamiliar room which was of the girl.
The girl was there too but this time clutching a knife in her hand pointed in his direction. "Who are you and how are you coming here?" Raudra rejoiced that he wasn't killed yet as it wouldn't be strange if he was dead by now intruding twice into a girl's room rather unknowingly though.
"Do you believe me when I say I can be killed with that thing?" Raudra questioned with a dead pan expression as he pointed at the knife in front of him. In this serious and complicated situation a sweet laughter was heard. The hand around the knife loosened a bit as she held her laughter.
"Well I still don't know your name, so who are you?" but instead of reply the girl clutched the knife pointed in his direction again with a serious expression. Raudra had an astonished expression as he inwardly thought 'is this the legendary realm of skin of a chameleon?' he directly raised his hands up in surrender. "How can you turn hostile so quickly, I myself don't know how am I here? Even if you are beautiful and I am shameless, but no I wouldn't intrude anywhere so crazily. I myself don't know how I am here so how can I answer why I am here?"
At this moment his forehead was drenched in sweat but it wasn't because of being questioned, the temperature was rising quite rapidly, he looked at the temperature clock in the room which was rising, it had reached 50 degrees and outside the window he could see the sky reddening not because of sun set but something else.
The girl also noticed this strange phenomenon as she looked outside, walking towards the window.
Raudra followed her and looked outside the window as he sucked in a breath of cold air at the scene in front of him.
