Chapter 16 - The Battle Of Kingdom Tadine: A Man called Ebenzer - Part 1

As they landed, Scott said, 'Mistical planet!'

The Dimensions looked at him in wonder as a man appeared with a grin on his face. 'You don't look like you're from around here,' the voice said. The Dimensions searched the area and couldn't detect where the voice was coming from. 'There!' Aries yelled as a young man hit the ground. 'DIMENSIONS ASSEMBLE!' Ethan yelled as they charged towards him.

They stood in shock when he multiplied into five duplicates of him. They each ran for a Dimension as they attacked each other.Ethan tried to attack with his beam-sword but lost when it passed through the boy and the duplicate was able to punch him, sending him a distance far from where they were. Aries formed fireballs as she took shots but when she stopped, the duplicate had disappeared and when she turned, it smacked her to the ground and threw her across.Soon Thomas and Scott came flying towards Ethan and Aries as the boy's duplicates rounded up and went back to his original form. 'What is wrong with you?' Aries asked. 'There can only be one!' the boy said, grabbing Aries by her neck and choking her.Ethan tried to stop him but the duplicates grabbed him, Thomas and Scott and choked them. 'Today is your endgame!' he chuckled.Just when Ethan gave his last breath, a man with a wand arose and waved it saying, 'Reversemosis!' and the boy turned into a tree. The Dimensions fell to the ground as the man looked at Ethan with joy. 'I awaited your arrival, Mr. Reddy,' he said, leaving Ethan in uneasiness. 'Come on, now. If you stay here, you'll be the forger's lunch!' he said as the Dimensions stood up and walked right behind him.'I'm sure you're wondering why you are here?' The man said. The Dimensions were scared as they witnessed unexplainable magic happen in front of them. 'Hello? I'm sure I'm not speaking to myself!' the man said as no one responded.The man got furious. He then held his wand and created a hole that was absorbing everything when the Dimensions got scared and asked him to stop. 'Do you not know what I just asked? If you do, ANSWER ME!' He yelled as the wind pressure got higher and they were close to entering the hole. 'Okay! Yes, we want to know where we are!' Ethan said as they collapsed to the ground and everything went back to normal.

'There are no jokes, here. You have a battle and I must train you. I must make you find your inner light!' the man said as Ethan got filled with fear.

They arrived and were amazed at how large the area was. Filled with animals, creatures and parasites, it was paradise. As they walked near a dam, the man grabbed Ethan's hand and said, 'You know why I must train you.' 'I'm afraid, I do not sir!' 'You are to battle King Tadum and his serpents but be aware he has increased his abilities and no one, like you, stands a chance. Yet of course, I must train you to stand a chance,' the man said, waving his wand.Ethan was scared and worried. Was he going to be the only one who could save Clementine? Where were his visions when he needed them? When Ethan faced the man, he ascended into mid-air and closed his eyes. All he could hear was, 'NEVER GIVE UP...'A white light appeared as a girl ascended. Ethan stood in shock when he saw her. When he saw Clementine. He immediately ran towards her and hugged her. He couldn't believe she was with him, in his arms. Ethan then took a step back when she looked at him with anger. She then created a puff of smoke and blasted him a distance far from her. When he looked at her, she was walking as she grew taller and taller, to the point he couldn't see her head. Ethan stood up and created his beam-sword as he jumped when she tried to punch him with her fist. 'What has gotten into you?' he asked. She then somehow blasted smoke from her eyes which burned Ethan's arm and made him scream for pain.Ethan looked into her eyes as he blinded her and immediately jumped on her arm, making his way towards her face. He knew the only way to end her was the neck. Before he could strike, she screamed and sent a noise wave, pushing Ethan far from her face. Ethan fell and rolled as she grabbed him and brought him towards her. 'You are the reason why he got me. You are the reason Tadine can rule the universe. You are the reason for all the troubles we've been facing. You are no hero but the villain in our lives. Because you are the problem,' she said, throwing Ethan to the ground.Ethan was weak. It was as if the words had opened his heart and poked holes inside of them. At that point, he was too weak to move. Clementine then went to her normal size as she created her smoke-sword and aimed it at Ethan's head. 'Please, Clementine. Give me mercy!' Ethan pleaded. 'Unfortunately, I can't!' She said, bringing the sword above his head.As the Dimensions looked at Ethan, they saw darkness surround him and Aries became worried. 'You! What's that smoke surrounding him?' 'I'm afraid that is what is going to end Ethan's life.' 'You can't do that! You need to stop this!' Aries argued. 'I can't, ma'am. This is his battle. I gave him a message and he must use it, otherwise, your friend will not live,' the man said, walking away.Aries then held a fireball, sending it all the way to the man. He swiftly avoided it and waved his wand, placing Aries, Scott and Thomas in a bubble.

'Get us out of here!' they screamed. 'No,' the man said as he walked away.

Ethan looked at Clementine as she brought the sword down, closing into his head. He then tried to face his head down but saw a light. He couldn't help but look towards it. He moved his head to the right and there he saw, Clementine. He then saw the rest of the Dimensions fighting alongside her against thousands of creatures as she and Ethan created a black hole and saved the planet they were on. Ethan knew what the light was. He knew what the man had said. He knew to never give up.He immediately grabbed her sword and flipped Clementine which made her fall on her face. She instantly jumped and reformed back to the gigantic self as Ethan held his hands together and threw a beam of light which pushed a step back.

He then tried to aim for her chest but she rapidly grabbed onto him and started smashing him against the solid ground, repeatedly. When she left him, he fell to his knees as she went back to her normal size and kicked him with her knee to his face. Ethan fell flat on his back.

Never give up... He remembered. Ethan looked Clementine in the eye as he stood up. Aries was stunned when a bright light appeared on Ethan's forehead and the smoke disappeared. The bubble then popped as the man said, 'He finally listens!'He then formed his sword and went back to back, battling with Clementine with her sword. Each time he was close to stabbing her, the more her defense mechanism clicked in and defended her. They soon gave up as they stood opposite sides of each other. Ethan knew there was no time to wait.The whole area began to convulse as Aries and the rest of the Dimensions couldn't see Ethan anymore because of how bright the light had gotten. He then looked at her and looked towards his sword. He knew the only way through was the light. He acted as if he had fallen to his knees as she saw him and ran towards him. Waiting for the perfect moment, he saw her last footsteps as she convoluted her sword and he reflected his sword towards her eye, blinding her and then capturing her in his arms. When she looked down, she saw his sword had gone right through her chest.'No matter how many times you blame me, I'm not giving up,' Ethan said as she screamed into dust and deceased. A light then moved fleetly as it stopped in front of Ethan and Clementine emerged. She then moved closer to him and said, 'I await for you and the team to rescue me,' as she touched his forehead and he came back to reality.'Ethan, are you okay?' Aries asked as she hugged him. Ethan nodded as the man walked towards him and said, 'Light and Dark are different yet they are the most powerful thing when mixed!'

Ethan couldn't understand what this guy meant. He then asked him, 'Who are you?' 'I am Ebenzer,' Ebenzer replied. Before Ethan could ask another question, the portal arose and it led all the way to Kingdom Tadum.

As they were about to leave, Ebenzer grabbed Ethan's hand and said, 'Brighter and Brighter, Lighter and Lighter. Glow,' as he turned around and walked away.

'His weird,' Thomas said as Ethan smiled. They then held each other's hand as they entered the portal.
