In the Eternal River of Time, there are Eldritch beings who are as immortal as time itself- Their Vision of time- The way they have lived - They are inexhaustible. Near Indestructible. They wield Power so forbidden that they are forever banished from ever stepping the Mortal Realms.
But Such anomalies always have a way to connect with the Mortal World.
They use their Savants- worshippers to carve out locations where want to build their haunts.
Then those locations are bombarded with Weapons capable of twisting the fabric of space and time- causing an extremely powerful spatio-temporal storm to surround the location- acting like a barrier to keep the Eldritch being in and prevent any one from entering the place from that time onwards.
These events are quite present and acknowledged by everyone. Why are they called Deadzones?
For they are built on the bones of dead- these locations would once hold Important Crucibles of Civilizations - that could upgrade the fate of an entire Race!
Such fate bearing places are filled with Metaphysical Energy of Destiny. This is especially delicious for these Time Wandering Eldritch Beings- who devour this energy to gain enlightenment over Laws of Destiny.
This was the true reason behind the formation of Deadzones.
But... There's always a catch- every Deadzone has a fatal flaw- Time Travel.
Because their formation itself is anomalous to the Laws of Space-Time, There is a way to prevent the Eldritch being from getting their Prize.
One must travel to the moment in the River of Time During the formation of the Deadzone and steal the object that is attracting the Destiny Energy.
This would cause the Purpose of the Deadzone to be defunct and useless and make these Eldritch Beings pay a brutal price.
But such a method has not worked very well, as time travel itself is extremely forbidden and These Eldritch Beings themselves are not stupid.
They would send their Mortal Avatars to guard the Destiny Energy Source in these Deadzones.
Unfortunately it is almost always impossible to steal food from a tiger's mouth.
Almost.
The Moment before the Invasion is commenced, In the Sub Time Stream.
In a region where constant time energy flowed and solid sediments of Crystallized Space Stones which formed the land here.
It was a dark and gloomy place with only silent flickering of silver light streams.
It was inhospitable dimension that would kill anyone that wasn't above the Demigod Level.
At the end of the Sub Time stream lay an ominous Dark Wormhole- The entrance of the Deadzone- it was created with Eldritch spells to view and protect the Destiny Energy Sources from Potential Temporal Interlopers.
Right now 2 figures were clashing fiercely!
One white and One Blue. They collided several times causing several Ripples to fall out.
A Woman wearing Dark Blue Full Armor Suit with A Glowing Blue Sword faced off against a colossal White Monstrous Octopus.
*CLANG
Her sword creates sparks as it slashes against countless Tentacles that attempt to Impale her.
"ROAR*" The Monstrous Albino Octopus roars in fury and Casts countless Streams of Spatial Blades at the female Swordswoman.
The Woman merely grunts as a deep Blue Aura surrounds her and her sword begins to glow Blue brightly.
She disappeared into a stream of Blue light which passed through the stream of Spatial Blades easily and she arrived before the massive Body of the Octopus .
She then instantaneously swung her sword in a beautiful Arc which then sliced more than half of the Octopus's Body - turning it into mince meat.
* CRASH * Wriggle
The Octopus dropped down dead but still wriggled endlessly in Pain.
It's writhing body parts and dark black purple blood oozing out from them create a terrifying sight.
The woman stood before the defeated Octopus and Murmured,
" Something doesn't feel right, Your master isn't here- why would he send you he-"
*CLAP CLAP CLAP
A Humanoid Black Knight casually clapped as if watching a worthless show.
His Black mask filled with Eldritch insignia that could drive one into madness if stared at too long.
The Woman's blood ran cold as she saw this Extremely Evil Being.
An inhuman voice came from behind the mask,
" Done with your games?"
An Evil laughter rang out as the Torn apart Octopus reformed itself before the Armored Woman. It had a cruel look in it's eyes.
The Woman then immediately slashed at the Black Knight before her.
The Slash went through him as if passing through air.
A shocked look flashed across the Swordswoman eyes but the next thing she saw was a casual dark metallic first colliding with her windpipe.
*Boom
The force of the Punch sent her crashing through spatial walls.
A mocking voice then followed her,
" You are slow - not like Irolin or Kronos"
The Swordswoman spat some blood out and then looked grimly at the approaching Black Knight- The Octopus looked on the scene as if amused at her.
She stood up and channelled even more Power into her sword causing the surroundings around her to distort.
*Shua
There was a complete change in her aura now- as if her strength had increased by another level.
The Black Knight spoke again as he observed her change, " Interesting - So a sword seal? I hope you can see my moves now"
After saying that his body flickered as a powerful bestial fist arrived before the Swordswoman at an insane speed.
But she calmly deflected all of it.
*CLANG CLANG CLANG CLANG CLANG BOOOOOOM
Both parties exchanged a hundred moves before the Black Knight stopped and stared at the Swordswoman. He spoke,
" You are not bad, But you aren't my match- on account on the fact that you could trade atleast a 100 blows from me- I'll let you Negotiate, Sword spirit- Kronika, Born from the Fragmented Blade of Time"
This time the woman opened her mouth and replied, " There's a Temporal Interloper in your Haunt, he must be put back to the right place- let me take him away"
"No", He replied while staring back at the Swordswoman.
"The Interloper has come to be my food- You shouldn't meddle in my affairs if you want to still live."
" I will take him away whether you like it or not-"
*BOOOOOOM
A massive crack sounded across the whole sub time stream,The Black Knight frowned as he looked back towards the Dark Wormhole and felt something was wrong.
The Octopus stared into the Dark Wormhole and Roared out in absolute fury.
It's roar shook the very timestream.
*Huaaaaa
The Black Knight gave of a deep killing intent as he stared into the Dark Wormhole. He spoke calmly but in a very eerie tone,
"I wonder which being has the guts to take my Destiny Energy"
The Swordswoman looked surprised at this and then immediately sealed the Time stream, preventing the Black Knight from travelling back in time to stop the theft.
The whole temporal stream froze as the Knight attempted to break through the temporal spatial barriers- He then coldly stared at her and spoke,
"You want to go against me?"
"You can't violate the rules of time, just because someone else violated your violation in the first Place"
Her cold defiant voice sounded out in Reply.
But just then,
*BOOOOOM
*BOOOOOM
*BOOOOOM
*BOOOOOM
*BOOOOOM
*BOOOOOM
*BOOOOOM
Seven successive Cracking sounds came from the Dark Wormhole.
The Octopus was agape. It's jaws opened widely and it stared dully at the Dark Wormhole.
The Black Knight was speechless.
The Swordswoman was even more Speechless.
She then spoke with amusement in her tone,
" I didn't know you had at 8 sources of Destiny Energy - My condolences, you will forever be remembered as the Eldritch Lord who let 8 Sources of Destiny be stolen from you-"
"SHUT UP!", The Black Knight had lost his cool now.
He turned to her and spoke in an extremely threatening tone, " If you don't lift your temporal restriction, I will make sure your sword body has no Soul! You will beg for death as I drown you in Oblivion -"
"Drown who?"
A Powerful voice spoke out as a Terrifying presence could be felt entering the Sub Time Stream. A Stalwart figure casually entered the restricted Zone and looked at the Black Knight in Disdain.
It was Irolin!
He had come here!
The Black Knight turned silent and took a few steps back as he saw Irolin was walking towards them.
Irolin smiled as he spoke with Kronika, ignoring the Black Knight who stood near the Trembling Octopus. Even the Black Knight's killing intent had retreated back.
" I came as I sensed an Interloper Event here, can you tell me if this little Brat is our Interloper?"
Irolin showed a Portrait of Aavesh to Kronika and she nodded back at him.
Irolin sighed in relief - God knows how many Deadzones he had travelled to find any place with new 'interlopers'.
This brat got into trouble way too many times. It seems he must teach this potential disciple to be low key as well.
Being too high profile had some side effects that made one miserable - really.
"You came too late Irolin- He's my food now-"
A cold voice, from the Black Knight came out towards him.
"Oh, You are really confident for someone who lost eight sources of Destiny Energy - I'm impressed-", Irolin chuckled and retorted calmly.
" I still have a Destiny Source left and My Avatar is still inside- Let's see who wins- Your Aavesh or My Avatar! My Mortal Avatar will definitely devour him before the time seal completes and sends him here- Hah Irolin you won't be able to BREAK THE RULES OF TIME EITHER! IN THE END I WILL WIN!"
The Black Knight Roared out and spoke with confidence! No matter what even if lost the last source of destiny energy - He would devour that Brat!
"Well we'll see won't we?", Irolin Replied faintly as he waited with Kronika.
Now all they could do was wait for Aavesh to return or the Avatar of The Black Knight.
Only wait.
In the Mortal World,
The Altar roared out in anger as Maksik trembled before him.
" My food has been stolen, Now head to Omega Orbitron for the final Piece and that Damn Brat! He must die to satisfy my hatred! HE MUST DIE! I WANT HIS FLESH!"
The voice yelled out crazily!
" Destroy everything! Burn down those Pinnacle Systems!"
"We will head to Omega Orbitron! Begin the War! Let the Invasion Commence!"
An order that started it all was spoken.
Now begins the war for Omega Orbitron.
Now Begins the Struggle for Survival of the Human Race.
Now the Deadzone of Humanity shall be born.
