BANG!
A loud banging sword had woken Miller up. It was the loud bang that was heard when Getrax's red powerful aura had hit the other three green aliens.
Gradually, Miller's eyelids started to flutter open, and his vision soon returned. His head felt heavy and his body was slightly sore. As he lifted himself off of the ground, he touched his head gently to see if he had injured himself.
"why does my head hurt so much?" He thought, bewildered and unable to make any sense of what had happened to him.
After patting his head all over, Miller then went to peek to check if the Terrox was still there. But it was not there. He started to open the door gently and then he when it was finally opened, there was no one or nothing there anymore. The Terrox was no longer present.
Miller was now going outside the building. The building itself was large, so it would take some time before he could reach outside. While he was walking, his mind started flashing images of the events that laid to his passing out on the ground. The more the memory flooded his mind, the more one thing stood out - the strange orb.
With a quick rush, he ran back to the room where the orb once was. When he got there, he surveyed the room in other to find the orb. But it was no longer there. With the fear that the Terrox might come back to attack him, he ran outside the room and continued leaving the building.
When he was finally outside the building, he saw someone he had been waiting for to see for a long time. It was James, although James was still injured and was healing gradually, he was still in a good shape to be able to stand up and walk slowly. When the green alien punched James, his body jolted to a location near the building Miller was currently in.
The dent in his stomach from where he was punched was healing gradually but had not healed completely.
"James!" Miller shouted at the top of his voice with Joy. The shout had reached the eyes of Getrax and he started moving to their location.
Miller ran towards James excitedly and gave him a big hug. He really missed James.
"Aargh, i am still healing can you please lose your grip a little" He complained. Miller obeyed.
"How are you, how are you still alive?" Miller asked.
"I will explain everything to you later, i just need a place to rest" James said.
"Oi, is it not the scared little one" A voice said from behind them. It was Getrax.
Miller seeing Getrax was a little scared. He knew Getrax to be a bully, but now Getrax was smiling and heading to their direction.
"Don't worry, he is now with us?" James said because he noticed Miller's reaction as he saw James.
"Wow, what is that?" Miller asked out of curiosity.
Getrax's body was still emitting that red aura. Getrax just remembered that his energy was out, and he was wasting it since he was not in a battle. He then made the energy go back into his body and now his body was no longer emitting the red energy.
"It's my energy" Getrax said.
"Wow" Miller replied.
"Miller, is there any where i can go to lay my head? i really need rest to heal better". James said while looking very weak.
From this words, Miller knew the best place to take them too. It was the shelter.
*******
Moments later, they were now Currently at the shelter. James was in a seperate room, resting as he slept away. Miller did not go back to the stadium, he just went directly to shelter.
He was finding out to find the direction to the shelter, so instead, he asked some Amargans for direction. The Amargans freely gave him direction and they finally entered.
Getrax on the other hand was told to go to the cell. Although it was referred to as a Cell. It was more comfortable than the prison they were in at the Mevorotrians planet. They were given meals three times a day. One for Breakfast, the other for Lunch and another for Dinner.
Miller was now Currently in a private room alone. He was still thinking about how he blacked out. Then suddenly he remembered a voice he heard: "CONGRATULATIONS, YOU ARE THE SYSTEM'S CHOSEN ONE."
The more he thought about it, the more it was hard for him to gather this puzzle together.
"What was that sound?" He said in a complaining tone.
"Are you asking about the sound i made when i gave you the first information" A voice inside his head said.
Miller turned behind him to see if anyone was there. When he turned he saw no one. Miller was puzzled as to where the voice came from?
"Who and you and where are you" He said as he got off his bed and got in a fighting stance.
"I am what people referred to as THE SYSTEM, and i am inside your head." The system said. "I have chosen you Miller but that doesn't Mean you are worth it".
Miller was shocked as to how the system knew his name.
"What do you know about me?" Miller asked confused.
As Miller blinked his eyes, Green letters flicked on his retina:
[THE SYSTEM'S CHOSEN: MILLER EDWARD]
[WORTHINESS: 50%]
[RACE: HUMAN]
[LEVEL 0]
[HP: 10/10]
[STRENGTH: 10]
[AGILITY: 10]
[STAMINA: 10]
"Whoa" Miller said.
It was like a game from Earth that was attached to his brain. But after that, another green words appeared on his retina:
[FIRST QUEST]
[PROVE TO THE SYSTEM THAT YOU ARE DESERVING OF THESE POWERS]
[YOU MUST DO THIS WITHIN TWENTY-FOUR HOURS OR YOU WILL BE REJECTED].
[YOUR TIME BEGINS NOW].
*******
Inside an alien ship that was foreign to humans. There was a group of aliens there, and they looked quite similar to the other Green aliens Getrax had defeated previously.
WHOOSH***
A peculiar noise was heard as three green entities who resembled them teleported to the scene after a white dazzling light emerged in front of them. It was the same green aliens Getrax had beaten; they were once five, but Getrax had murdered two of the surviving three, and the other three were severely injured.
"We need to see Kalzifrax" One of them said as he groaned in pain.
One of the green aliens that were in the ship went to find Kalzifrax. They finally found him and then he came to the scene to see the aliens that called him.
When looking at Kalzifrax, one could see that he was tall, he had a thin body, with pale gray skin covered in small, smooth scales. He has large, golden eyes, with irises that have slit pupils like a snake's. His hair was short and white, and they were long, he had elegant fingers. They were sharp and striking, with prominent cheekbones and a narrow chin. His ears was pointed, like an elf's, and his nose was narrow and slanted. Overall, he still looked elegant and very powerful.
"What happened!" Kalzifrax shouted at them.
"We are sorry we failed, the system had already chosen its avatar before we got there" One of them said who was still covered with his green blood.
(NOTE: NATURALLY THEY WOULD HAVE HEALED BUT BECAUSE OF THE POWER WAS TOO STRONG, THEIR HEALING RATE WAS SLOW AND THUS THEY WERE STILL IN GREAT PAIN).
"And so what if you failed, where is the system's chosen one?" Kalzifrax asked annoyed.
"We were not even able to find out who it was, we believe it should be an Amargan because it was the planet of Citarada or it could be one of those humans, we have no clue" Another replied.
With the anger in him, Kalzifrax shouted: "Take these three to the dungeon and execute them".
After those words, he stormed out at a great speed without giving the others time to react.
When he went back to his room, he smiled and then said to himself:
"After what feels like an eternity, the system has rendered its verdict. It's your time to pay the price, CHOSEN ONE. I'm coming for you."
