He pulled himself up and tried to keep his head down. His wounds weren't doing him any favour as well. He practically dragged himself near the centrel source. As he got nearer , he looked back , there wasn't much survivors other than the councellor and a 3-4 knights .He could see the tense in their faces like they could see death himself infront of them. ("I - i can do this maybe- we can survive") As he got infront of her, he raised him head just slightly to see a distorting figure looking down. ("it didn't do that before-could it be")he felt its presence was of a massacre itself now that he's near. Disturbing. He kneeled down and placed the sword infront of her. For a moment he thought he saw a movement above him.As much as he wished it was just a feeling , Nope it was definitely real.He fell back as he looked into it eyes with fear. He scrawled back but then-

"A-riS-E" Her words were broken almost filled with sadness. "aRE thoU the- RulER" it stuttered.He almost looked suprised "N-o no sire" Then suddenly a light came from her eyes. the next few things were confusing. They could see a souly figure floating in the air similar to the massive statue like thing but much smaller. Before I knew it it went straight into a dead body and suddenly it stood up like it was possessed.The body was in the verge of falling apart . then the words came pouring out "This-The war has it ended yet?"The General was confused as much as others."My lady" The councellor countinued

"Are you perhaps stating the war of impire"

"...." the silence answered the rest

"The -The bloodlust war almost ended a 500 years ago. I could say the war to come is perhaps a sequel"

".... that can't be- i never left then how could it be.... Ailas you-" She mutters to herslef

But the Councellor and the General eyed each other as if they caught something

"Ailas as in The power of basilisk.... almighty what have happened" He put his hand in his chest trying to call himself down

"the basilisk , That means you're the-" The General couldn't finish of the sentence

"Traitors among the powers, tchhh" She barked

In a matter of seconds the body was ruined as it couldn't contain her.The lifeless statue once again with its disturbing eyes looked into the eyes chanting only for the veil to perish.

"I SHALL FINISH THIS.THE 9 EMPIRES MUST DIE .YOU- DON'T DESERVE-" She chokee midway falling down to her knees.

meanwhile the Councellor was still in a confusing state for the past 10 seconds

"It couldn't be- it must not be- There are Many many incredible powers but not one dared to call the Basilisk Ailas other than the-"

He ran towards the figure .He was an atom in the eyes of the goddess.

He was tripping on his feet if it weren't for the general he wouldn't have the power to stand straight.The old man said crying "We waited for you my power , the enitre cosmos did..." Before he couls finish the general grabbed out of the her way.

"Why aRe YoU...?"

Her eyes were reflecting some sort of memories. fainted. A single tear fell from its eyes causing a thunder to storm in "BBOOOOMMMMMMMPHH"

"Sire we shouldn't have come here...The war is not the only thing we should have been warned about. its an abomination.The collapse of trust and power we-" It was getting hard to breath

"Run, inform the imperials that the powers are awakening and to keep their eyes out ,NOWWW" The General shouted out to the shivering knights.

They ran with their lives before they could get slaughtered. suddenlyThe old man spat blood but it was blue.The air- its getting poisonous. sooner the general too started coughing "My sire, We place our lives before you ,please *cough* answer us" the General choked

"Everything's Changing.For I'm not powerful yet to return i shall wait one day and end the misery of this war by myself and kill the powers..."Her blood reds eyes were sharp as swords.

".... Take us..." The general stated "...this war has been nothing but burden on our shoulders. Bloodlust and pride have found no more meaning for it is only abused by the rich on common people .end this for us...We beg you.. give us a eternal rest"

The looked down to see the breathless body of the councellor.He closed the old mans eyes "you've been a father to all those children like us who had to place our lives for the powers" He kissed his hands and placed him in the sand.

He lookwd upto thw goddess

"My sire..."he acknowledged as he got weaker and weaker by the posion around him

She closed her eyes almost calming the air and when she opened her eyes there was sword infront of her

"You are the first of your kind to be not full of ego and pride and pleasure.There will be no mercy to your filthy rulers . For once i place my trust on you.Take this

Sacrifice yourselves for the heavens for when i end the life of these rats i shall grant eternal rest for your kind .mark my words" She stated as she slowly started distorting into dust

He looked at the sword.There were words written on it. "On the heavens I pledge my eternity to you" He worded it out as he dragged the sword across his neck "SHHIIIILLSHHH" in thay second he fell lifeless on the ground with his neck sliced. His last thoughts of death was intriguing but now he knew what it felt like to be in a void but it was a peaceful one from the pain they endured.

"wake.....What is it ....WAKE UPPP" someone Called out

"WHAT-THE-FUCK" Lei screeched out his lungs
