Chapter 52 - Chapter 52, Stolen Time

"Tch. There's a lot of them." I said as I touched my shadow to chain.

"Yeah." Theo said raising his trident.

Canis Major, Canis Minor, Canis Venatici, and Lupus are what I can see. What a bothersome group. Canis Major is what Sirius originally came from, they're the beasts that lead. Canis Minor is the beast who's howls pierce the sky and Lupus the hunting beasts.

"Stay within the confines of the barrier. Attack from a distance." I told them. "The moment we enter that circle of chaos, we're done for."

"Okay." They answered as we began our attacks.

Alexis fires arrows from the distance along with Will, Zhen and Lia helping.

"Storm Weaver Trident!" Theo suddenly threw his trident into the chaos and behind it a strong gust of wind and as it hits the target, a cyclone burst.

"Embracing Seasons, Fifth Form, Inverted Four Seasons!" Lia waved her fan and blades of light decapitated the Chimeras.

"Dance of Blades, Fifth Slash, Great Flames." With a simgle slash, Oaistar burns countless Chimeras.

"Tch, Fire Shield. Burn them all away!" Ethan said as he raised his sowrd to the air and created multiple layers of flaming shield.

"Open, Vortex Gate." Leon says as a giant vortex appears above us and a handful of Chimeras are pulled up.

"Second Page, Liberation Story." Adele says and we're suddenly engulfed in a light and I feel my power rise.

"Dance of Strings: Seventh String, Web of Fate." Lucas says and multiple Chimeras are trapped in webs.

"Dance of Knives: Third Dance, Bloody Aria." The dance of countless knives in the air causes even me to see a red lught trailing behind them as they decapitate the Chimeras.

"Fifth Scythe, Reaper Dance!" Andrew's scythe flies into the chaos destroying everything in its path.

"Thunderstorm Gun." Will aims to the sky and syrom brews and lightniing strikes down in the Chimeras.

"Whirlwind Spear!" Reinhardt throws a spear that destroys countless Chimeras in one go.

"Earthquake Hammer!" Liam slams his hammer to the ground and it quakes with each following hit.

"Songs of Harmony: Fifth Harmony, Melody of Storms." As Adonis played his flute some Chineras began dancing and exploding.

"Let's do it, Angie!" Rachel said. "First Staff: Flame Arc!"

"Second Mirror: Repeat!" Angue answered as the two did a joint attack.

"You guys have gotten better haven't you." I said. "You've learned to control your weapons better.

"Of course we have." Theo answered.

"Speaking of which, Mitan, I'm giving you a Title too." I told him.

"Eh? What kind?" He asked as I placed my hand on his shoulder.

"I hereby grant you title Vassal Brave of the Explosives." I said and a glow appered on his right shoulder. "Now, go and shwo them what your made of!"

"First Bang, Crimson Eruption!" He shouted and suddenly the ground exploded.

"Looks like you're all doing well." I smiled and took up the chain. It's still inactive but when activated it becomes a flail. "Hyaa!"

I swung the flail around and easily take out the Chimeras. I like this weapon, it feels like I'm going wild and I like the adrenaline that it provides.

We continue to attack but the number of Chimeras isn't getting smaller and they seem to be getting higher. At this rate, we won't be able to stop the at all.

Just when I was starting to lose heart suddenly a javelin lands a few yards from me and destroys all the Chimeras in one go.

"Hurry, join hands!" A voice called out and a woman with wavy golden hair with blue eyes and white skin grabbed my hand.

"Quick!" I said to the others who immediately joined hands with me.

"Now, Lady Chronologia!" She said and suddenly above us a clockface appeared.

The next thing I know we've been teleported from where we were to a castle. The girl smiles and the voice of a man calls out to me. I turn to see a woman with golden hair and white skin with golden eyes. That's when I notice her other eye... it has a clockface in it.

"Chronologia, the Guardian of Time and Space." I said. "So you were the one who saved us."

"It has been a while, my liege." She said and bowed her head.

"Ah! You don't need to bow." I told her. "So, this is the Castle of Time, I presume."

"Yes. This young lady is the Brave of Clocks and the gentleman behind you is the Brave of Fate." She said and I tirned to see a young man with short brown hair and white skin with golden eyes. His other eye was similar to Chronologia.

"I'm Fate, he is Gary." The young lady said. "We're siblings who Lady Chronologia took in."

"If I recall properly, the one that served as the Priest of Time when I visited was a child with blue hair." I said.

"Yes... actually master, there is something I would like to ask you." Chronologia said and I noticed something was wrong with her.

"Did something happen?" I asked her.

"Master, please come with me, I have something you must see." Chronologia said and I tried to read her for a minute before smiling.

"Okay then." I said and turned to Will and the others before smiling brightly. "You guys get some rest, I'll be back soon."

"Okay then." They answered as I left with Chronologia. They seemed relieved after they saw my smile.

We walked away in silence and I kept quiet till we were out of earshot and broke the silence and asked her the truth.

"So, what really happened? I know that you could easily do that yourself." I told her.

"Master, forgive me for lying but I was afriad to mention this in front of your Braves." She said. "My Priest... he got into a fight with Horologium."

"Horologium is the beast that steals time." I recalled. "It can't be!"

"Yes." She said and opened the door to a room. "The Priest of Time..."

I looked at the young man with long blue hair and white skin lying on a bed, barely breathing. I notice marks on his body that prove he has been to battle.

Just then his body glows golden and I notice it slightly disappearing. This phenomenon... Stolen Time.

"The Priest of Time has had his time stolen by the Beast; Horologium." I exclaimed as I looked at the young man.
