Chapter 48 - ROZARIA

He began,"I didn't live the easiest life out there. I was basically sold to work on an illegal mine from a very young age because of my family's poverty, it was tedious and dangerous, with many lives lost everyday, but the need for food kept me going. The only thing that kept me from running away was my little brother. He and I were very close and he was the only one who never teased me for my strange eye colour. We did everything together, from mining, to running away from the cops, to stealing food from the market, everything. But one day, he hadn't been giving his required rations of gold, so he was forced to mine over time. I didn't want him to be alone so decided to work with him, but that was a mistake. Before we went into the mine shaft, I was attacked by a crocodile while taking a bath. It hurt me with its tail but I was still conscious, and drowning. I managed to swim out, hurt but alive then ran away, there and then, I got gills. When I was in the mine with my brother, we reached a wet and weak wall, with a fast moving river, not far away. We decided to mine in another direction but got into a huge fight. My eyes started to glow then I attacked him and made the wall explode with water pressure and he was washed away, I haven't heard of him till now."

The cloud spread to reach above his head and continued raining and I could feel his sorrow.

He blamed himself for what happened.

"I'm sorry..."I said.

He wiped an old tear from my cheek then said,"It's okay."

I couldn't tell if he was talking about me, himself or both of us, but I said,"You don't have to blame yourself for that, it wasn't your fault."

"I hear you, son."He said.

Then the rain drops separated in a curtain like manner as we hugged. Just then, my dad's eyes darted open then he said,"Something isn't right."

***

Several police men were shooting bullets at the army marching their way but all the bullets stopped in thin air.

One shot a bazuka bomb but it was immediately deflected back to them.

They jumped out of the way and it hit a wall.

Then one person from the army stretched her arm then all the walls melted into flaming hot lava like pudding.

It cooled down instantaneously and a man in military uniform walked over the black glass into the prison compound.

All the cops that attacked him were severely injured by his three body guards and all the inmates stayed away.

He reached a cell with a steel door then signalled one of his body guards.

The man touched the metal door then some clicking sounds were heard right before it opened.

The woman inside greeted them with a warm smile then asked,"How can I help you, boys?"

The general said,"You are the former principal of Bright Academy, the main supplier of my super humans, no?"

"In the flesh."She said.

"For someone with numerous lights, you show a lot of expertise in them all."

"I've lived for a while."

"Well I want you to use your knowledge to help me win a war, I'll give you your freedom and whatever else you want, riches, power, fame."He said.

"Oh, I don't need any of that, all I want is revenge..."

"Hey! Stop right there!"

The general turned back to see eight Monster Hunters behind him and his body guards. The principal said,"Leave them to me..."

***

I arrived with my dad and saw a mess.

Most of the police officers were injured all around and the ones who weren't, had to keep the inmates from creating a riot.

Inside was worse, with the bodies of famous Monster Hunters everywhere.

It was a gruesome scene and I couldn't look.

My dad asked,"So why would she kill enlightened humans, when she wants more of them?"

I looked at him, confused till he asked me to display Aqua Orchestra. After doing it, I saw that those bodies were actually cops that she had somehow shape shifted into the Monster Hunters.

She did roughen up the real Monster Hunters, but she took them away, to who knows where.

With some tall guy wearing Russian military uniform.

We went back home and my mom was concerned as to what had happened.

We told her the truth...we bended the truth a little...we lied to her since we didn't want her to get stressed out.

We eventually told her what had happened but my dad manipulated her emotions to make her respond more lightly.

My dad decided to teach me some of the H 2 Order skills he had that I didn't know, like mind control, mind healing and body healing.

In Rozaria...

Rozaria was a small country which used to be a colony of Russia due to its close proximity, but it gained independence due to its powerful military force.

That country was known for having one of the most powerful armies in the planet when it was even smaller in size than Benin.

Two people were sitting at table and their starters were served.

The general then asked,"So, what kind of revenge do you want?"

"Oh, the kind of revenge were I torture someone emotionally, mentally and physically till they beg for death but I rather prolong their life, that kind of revenge."The principal said.

"You are a sick and twisted woman, I like that."

"So, what exactly do you want me to do for you?"

"I want you to lead my army, to take down Russia, China, the USA and all the powerful countries in the world, to create justice and equality."

"You are asking the wrong person."

"What? You're perfect, you're basically the most powerful person who has ever lived."

"No I'm not, you were wrong, I don't have numerous lights, just one. I copied the genetic signature of the people in project A and isolated their enlightened genes and placed them in myself, but it doesn't work forever. The genes are very temperamental and volatile, and don't last long. I'm only a level 3 Hurricane Lass, rather, the person you should be looking for is that kid I fought, he's on level 9 at age sixteen, he has a lot of room for improvement, just conduct one experiment on him and he'll be the first person in history to reach level 11, doing that, you'll also cause pain to all the people that ever hurt me, it will be a win, win."

He smirked then said,"Good plan, sadly as you said, you will no longer be useful to me, Claus..."

She widened her eyes right before her head exploded.

The general stood up, wiped some blood from his shoulder pad, then said,"Claus, get this cleaned up, blood red does not go well with ivory white."

Then he walked away...
