Chapter 5 - God Stone

Theodore walks out of Castle Black with his war party. He goes to the prisoners and free them. "Fiora, I'll set you all free." He gives her a phone. "To call your father." He then grips on to Rinehart's mech. "Troops last mission in this war. Let's take the god stone!" Mechas started flying, other machines started either hovering or flying as well.

They followed Rinehart until they reached a safe distance. "Hold!" They all go to the ground. "Why did we stop?" one of the mech soldiers said Theodore looks with a pair of special binoculars. "We have over 1000 soldiers on the god stone. All enemies." "We can't face that," said Rinehart." Theodore gets off the mech and pulls out his own phone. He dials a number. "Hello lord Goldhaven! Here is the new lord Theodore Bloodhearth. If you don't retreat your troops off my own land I am gonna destroy it with a 4x4"

Everyone looked at him in terror. "I won't budge!" He looks at Rineharts mech flustered. "Has your daughter called yet?" "What do you m~" Theodore ends the call and calls Fiora. "Lady Fiora, you owe me something!" She laughs. "What do you need, bastard?" He takes a deep breath. "So! I wanna get to the god stone your father stands on, on my land." Her voice turned from a joking voice to the same voice she had when they met on the battlefield, a rough and firm voice. "Why?"

"Do you want peace?" She stands in sillance for a couple of seconds "YOU MEAN YOU WANT TO WASTE A GOD DAMN WISH ON A FUCKING WAR?" She shouts, the phone speakers could barely resist. "Yes!" She sighs. "Fine, I'll say what you intend to do." She ends the call. "Prepare the 4x4 in case plan A does not work." Ghost gets out and sets up a box with 4 skulls on it. He pressed a button. "4X4 ARMED'' He shouts.

The phone rings and Theodore responds. "Hello?" "It Goldhaven we leave the space, you Bloodhears know how to fuck around and find out, I give you that. Hope this works Fiora missed the days you two played chess." "Turn off the 4x4 we are gonna get through" "Wait wha?" Theodore ends the call abruptly and rides Rinehart's mech again. Ghost turned off the 4 kilometer by 4 kilometer bomb. Ghost moves to a container and puts it in a safe spot where nothing can activate it by accident.

They all rise up from the ground and slowly, with caution arriving on the same land as lord Goldheaven. Theodore gets off the mech and goes to meet lord Goldhaven in a time span that felt like eternity. Goldhaven tries to do a hand shake, but then realizes that Theodore doesn't have his right hand.

He brings up his left hand a shaked their hand properly soon after. "Good to see you Theo. How is your father?" Theodore's face was not moved from a professional look, but his inside wanted to kill Goldhaven for even asking. "Kissing the ground…" Theodore said. He looks down "For good" He signals Rinehart to come over. "So how do you activate the stone, and where is it?"

"Cut my palm" Said Theodore to Rinehart. He did as he was told. He grabs his clean knife and creases the palm with his knife. Theodore now moves a bit away from both Goldhaven and Rinehart and faces his palm downwards.

"I Theodore Bloodheart, call upon the gods, always righteous and forever lasting…" The land that they stay on lights up. "You asked me where the God stone is, Goldheaven, you were standing on it. This land is a new addition to my lands. God Stones travel everywhere on an interval of 10 days, we are lucky this stone is even here."

From thin air 10 human-like creatures appear, their bodies hidden by light. One of them steps up, a beautiful woman dressed in soldier clothes, with metal breast plate. In her hand was a giant spear with the blade made out of light, Her face was mostly covered by headgear. She took it off, her face was beautifully constructed, perfect neck bones, perfect nose, perfect cheeks, perfect blue eyes and short blond hair.

"My name is Nara, It's nice to meet someone in 100 years that is not a god." She clears her throat. "I figure you are Theodore." She points at Theodore. "What is your wish for my child?"

Theodore closes his eyes and thinks for a brief second. "I wish…" He looks at his soldiers and friends who have suffered major losses. "I wish the war to end!"

The goddess laughs, "That's your wish." She looks at Theodore close and smells him. "Nooo! You are a Bloodhearth? Now I understand. Also why don't you have a servant yet?" She claps her hands and a giant book appears.

She reads it and then looks at Him. "You've done many feets that should've given you a servant! I'd see to this later. Now that I realize who asked for the wish I won't bother mocking you!" She claps her hands again. "Good luck doing what you want from now on!"
