Chapter 4 - The Battle: Act 1

It's been 2 months since the last champion was chosen, but he's still missing. All the others look for him everywhere, but without any sign of his presence.

Then, on the 27th of October the worst possible scenario happened for humanity.

[Congratulations lesser beings, now you have enough champions to help you. Then let the divine punishment begin.]

- What the fuck is this now? Divine punishment?

- Be prepared for anything that might happen. We are champions for a reason.

Raul tries to motivate the other two present, but the situation is not very favorable.

A crack appears over the sky in six different locations around the world and from within each of them, what would be a meteor to human eyes comes out. The first lands in the Brazilian Amazon, the second in England, the third in Russia, the fourth in the South Pole and the fifth and sixth in the ocean. All are bright and immovable stones, but they still shock the world.

****

-It's been 3 days and we still don't know what those things are.

- The voice called divine punishment, so we will need to be aware of what comes, so we leave troops traveling those stones and a champion in each location.

Raul says with a voice worried about the situation.

A call was made to the champions' base screen, it was Poseidon directly from the South Pole.

- How are things over there Poseidon. Any news?

- Man, things started to get complicated. Whatever fell in here is starting to glow and expand as if it wants to hatch. I think it might be an egg.

Poseidon responds to Raul with an unhappy face.

Fear dominates everyone with each passing second. Then, far away at the bottom of the ocean, one of the rocks begins to suffer the symptoms that Poseidon had mentioned. The stone cracks and hatches, leaving from within it a creature half man and half fish, the creature had a physiognomy beyond humans, a large body with muscle, the passion part similar to a serpent with scales in emerald color, a face resembling a piranha with large, sharp teeth.

The creature that came out of the rock begins to move at high speed along the dark ocean floor until it disappears in the depths.

Meanwhile, a great tremor occurs in the Amazon, the second rock begins to hatch, from within it a golden serpent is born, having 20 meters in length. She begins to devour everything in her path.

- Attention champion in Brazil, seismic movements have been detected. What's happening there?

Raul asks about the communication, desperate and worried about what is happening.

- Calm down bro, don't shout so much. But I think we're a little screwed. A snake just got out of that rock, it's moving at high speed and I need to stop it. I call you later.

Leo, the champion of Brazil starts to move towards the beast, however his speed doesn't seem to be high enough. 10 minutes after the chase, the snake stops moving, as he approaches he realizes how big it is compared to when he saw it. It was about 60 meters long.

- What the... She's growing the more she eats things on the way, it seems I have no option but to kill her here and now.

Leo pulls out two modified guns from his waistband and starts shooting at the snake.

bang.. bang..

He unloads the first magazine of his weapons, but it seems that it wasn't even enough to hurt her or get her attention.

-What is this snake made of, these bullets were surrounded by my aura, she didn't even have the courtesy to look at me as an opponent. HEY, I'M TALKING TO YOU YOU DAMNED SERPENT!

Leo screams desperately so that she can hear and notice him, but the snake lowers its head and falls asleep right there after eating a lot. Leo and his team that just arrived are outraged and at the same time happy that she is no longer moving. But the fear of what she might do when she wakes up still haunts them.
