Stoneson entered after Godfather and bowed low to him, he was oblivious to the existence of the fragmented soul just right beside him or so it seemed. Godfather Zayn scrutinized him for a long while and opened his mouth to say something but then he noticed something peculiar.
"Thank you, Sir, that was so rich..." He turned to his right and bowed. Godfather Zayn was in a daze, "you can see him?" He asked. "No but I can feel his energy fluctuation." Stoneson answered calmly. "Haha good lad!
Tell is about yourself." Master Ricky ordered, Stoneson cleared his throat and stationed both his hands at his back then started in a clear and deep voice, " I go by the name Stoneson, twelve years of age coming from USA on Planet Earth..."
Before he could continue, Godfather Zayn stopped him, "you do realize you are not on earth?" He asked, bewildered. Stoneson smiled and answered, "I do know in this world there is something called the Theory Of Endless Galaxies. Although I know for certain that I'm not on earth because the surrounding air is different, I can't pinpoint which galaxy I'm in exactly." Godfather Zayn stroked his beard and said, "good, good you really are smart, I thought after the time curse ritual, you would only grow your body and leave the mind to be childish but that isn't the case, impressive indeed."
"I want to ask please, where am I now?" Stoneson asked. "Yes yes you are in a galaxy called, the Tension galaxy, Planet Ricky! This planet used to be filled with numerous kinds of dangerous and life threatening beasts, so no one dared to wander around on this planet. It was so until, Master Ricky here came into being, slowly made his way to the top and cemented his name as the strongest in the universe!
To prove that the title wasn't just for show and that he had the strength to back up the claims, he decided to do the unthinkable, he wandered off alone into this planet and no one ever heard of him again, while here, all communications with the outside world ceased, however some inquisitive people came closer to see if he had died out of stupidity or not.
They came and lo and behold, every nook and cranny of this planet you see today was a covered with dead bodies of the beasts that inhabited the planet.
He had heaped their dead bodies, reaching high up into the clouds while he sat atop it all meditating. That was when he decided to name it after himself and slowly develop it into a human civilization, he then built the Avengers Academy to nurture people into powerhouses like himself and through his might and works, the Avengers Academy is the number one Academy in the world!"
Stoneson knew how great that feat was, he was a competitive person and therefore after hearing the whooshing green gas' feats, he had unknowingly clenched his fists, swearing in oblivion to surpass him in the near future.
"Thank you sir, I'm eager to see my level, where can I train?" Stoneson asked eagerly. "Sure, sure I'm eager to see it too, head over to the Virtual Training Platform, choose the first difficulty and survive in there for a month!"
"Okay Sir!" Stoneson replied curtly and sped off. He came back seconds later, "where's my room, sir?" He asked, "oh, we'll talk about that when you come back." With that he zoomed right off again.
Stoneson went to the training room and with a smug grin, he chose the fifth difficulty! Immediately he entered, Godfather Zayn and Master Ricky appeared in front of the old antique screens and fixed their eyes on the screen. "What's he doing there? Isn't that level five!?"
Master Ricky laughed and said, "he is clearheaded, let's see how he does."
********
Stoneson was falling fast toward the ground from a very high altitude, he was calm though as he searched for a way to cushion his fall to reduce the damage as much as possible. He stabilized himself in the air and dived down, his arms by his sides. Before he could execute his plan though, he suddenly felt weightless, swaying gently with the wind and landing on his feet gently.
He decided to take the time to survey his surroundings and get a better understanding of the terrain, after all, he was supposed to survive, not fight anything blindly, things quickly went down south though, before he could have a good look at the surroundings, he heard the sound of hooves coming from behind him, he turned and saw something like a warthog head for him, worse of it was that it was running with such blistering speed that it was just in front of him in the blink of an eye, the animal tried to swerve him but due to its speed, it couldn't turn in time.
Stoneson was caught off-guard but he still dealt with the situation pretty well, he quickly performed a side roll, evading the beast. He had been leaning against a tree while he scrutinized the area, so the warthog, unable to bring its mad dash to a halt, slammed its side into the tree.
Stoneson had no weapon as if now, he didn't plan on using one anyway as he wanted to test his raw strength and tenacity, he clenched his fist and approached the beast steadily, before he could throw his punch, the beast froze for a second, then sprinted off into the bushes again.
"Roar!" The roar was mind-numbing, it became clear soon that Stoneson messed up, he should have found cover, and found out what the warthog was fleeing from. Anyway, there's no room for regret, he had to right his wrongs, it was then that he turned again and realized a humongous rhinoceros coming for him! He smiled, this would be the best opportunity to test his strength, it was reckless but that was his aim.
He positioned himself conveniently to face the onslaught head on, his left foot stepped back as he leaned backwards, ready to throw his punch any moment. Was it luck? The beast charged straight at him, eyes bloodshot as it resolved to deal with anything that blocked the path to its prey. The duo were now directly in front of each other. Stoneson threw his punch towards the beast, it landed squarely in the centering Yh of its head, ending its charge abruptly and sending it reeling on its four limbs!
"Boom!" It slammed into a tree, then roared angrily, however after shaking its head vigorously in acknowledgment of the pain and looking at the little fist, its thrower and the ten meter long skid marks it had left on the ground between them, it came to a simple conclusion, run!
It disappeared from Stoneson's line of sight, running like the wind. Stoneson had been expecting a fe battle but it seemed his first challenger was nothing more than a scaredy cat, running from him with its tail between its legs!
"How disappointing." Stoneson thought as he licked his lips. He sat down to recuperate a little by meditating, he was surrounded by that azure glow again. He had planned to stay in the meditative state for just a minute, after all he was unfamiliar with the terrain and he was unsure if there were deadly birds in the area, he had nested himself in one of the tall trees in the lush forest, when he opened his eyes, he was shocked to realize that it was already nighttime and more shocking was the bloody fight going on under him, a cute white wolf besieged by a group of winged monkeys.
Monkeys were said to be adorable in general but the same couldn't be said for what Stoneson was seeing, they looked way too ugly to be described as ugly, their faces were painted with pure bloodlust and their claws were as sharp as daggers, their fangs was no child's play as well, but the most worrying feature they had was an arrowhead tail, sharper than their already scary claws. Wings as small as a butterfly's were attached to their backs, for flight.
It was impressive that the little wolf was able to fend them off with relative ease but it was only a matter of time before it would be overwhelmed.
Something again caught his attention, as the fight raged on, he realized the little wolf's body glow blue at a time as its fur stood on end, then it shot a bolt of lightning towards one of the monkeys, paralyzing it as it dropped like a bomb to the ground.
His eyes brightened at the sight, this could be a very useful companion he thought, visibility was quite low as it was dark, Stoneson made his decision in a split second, he was going to join the fray! He slid down the bark of the tree as stealthily as he could, the wolf had noticed him long ago but didn't pay attention to him.
The winged monkeys kept shrieking loudly as they attacked relentlessly at the wolf, oblivious to the new enemy lurking in the shadows, laying in wait for the slightest opportunity to strike hard. Stoneson found a pretty strong branch on the ground and quickly armed himself, he then carefully observed the winged monkeys carefully, thinking for a way in which he could betray the ugly fiends.
"Whack!" The target was stunned, it was knocked off the air, falling like a meteor towards the wolf below it! The wolf embraced it with a swipe of its paw, slamming it into the ground. It then bit into the wings on its back and ripped them off, its hind limb was next, then its tail.
Stoneson was shocked, he thought the wolf would try to kill it immediately but it didn't, oddly enough, it was smart to take on the parts of its nemesis that made it powerless against them first, the tails that pierced it from long range, the limbs that made them agile, and the wings that took them airborne so that it wouldn't attack be able to attack them! Intelligent, smart, cunning! Stoneson couldn't think of any other words to describe the wolf.
"Hahaha! Let's whack and roll!" He laughed heartily as he saw the monkey writhing on the ground in pain, it had been disarmed. "This is going to be fun!" Stoneson licked his lips.
