-At the moment Velari received the call-
Elsewhere in the country of France, a giant, terrifying shadow loomed over the skies and plummeted. Due to the size and speed of its fall, it would be expected that the destruction would be total, but before touching the Earth's ground, luminous ribbons surrounded it, slowing its fall. Despite this, it generated catastrophic earthquakes that left a trail of destruction in its wake upon its landing.
But before the dust dispersed from the crater, something else landed, creating a new wave of destruction.
When the dust began to settle a little, the cause of the disaster was revealed. The surviving crowd near the impact area was speechless and terrified, because what they saw was not what they expected.
In the crater stood two gigantic beings, one had a humanoid appearance and seemed to be wearing strange armor, the other, although it had a slight humanoid appearance, also had strange limbs that made it look more grotesque and demonic.
The demonic being, with its dark and terrifying appearance, loomed above the earth, its presence emitting an ominous darkness. In contrast, the humanoid being emanated a dazzling radiance.
Without words involved, a battle began. The two giant beings shot energy bolts at each other, creating explosions that shook the earth. They collided with supernatural force, sending shock waves that shattered buildings and landscapes.
In the battle, the demonic being roared and defended itself furiously. Despite his chaotic nature, he demonstrated incredible stamina, power, and strategy. The fight went on for what seemed like an eternity, and the fate of the Earth hung in the balance.
At the same time, despite being a considerable distance from the epicenter of the battle site, Alexander's family and friends could not help but be caught up in the chaos that ensued. They continued fighting to survive the disaster caused by the tremors and explosions that shook the country. They couldn't pay full attention to the epic battle between the two giant beings, but they could feel the devastation it left in its wake.
The world they knew was witnessing a confrontation of cosmic proportions, and their journey to Russia had taken an unexpected and dangerous turn.
The battle between the two giant beings reached its climax when the humanoid being finally managed to surpass the demonic being. He unleashed a final energy attack that enveloped the demon in an intense radiant light that pierced many vital points. The demonic being let out a terrifying howl and then vanished into nothingness, leaving only a fleeting shadow of his presence in the air.
The humanoid being floated in the sky, exhausted and although he emerged victorious he let out a sigh, and said to himself in a language that did not belong to Earth—Damn Corruptor, Velet is going to kill me! But still, I must return soon. —His glow shone brightly as he observed the landscape that had been devastated by the battle. In the air, before retreating he decided to scan the affected area and find the injured, but he was surprised to discover an energy that he had not felt for a long time. Curious, he focused his vision towards the place, there he saw a woman much larger than the beings around him, she was also capable of using natal energy; Of course he was very weak, but there was no doubt, the purification process had worked. With his psychic connection in range, he sent her a message in an understandable language—Your appearance was undoubtedly like his. Woman, tell me your name?
Velari stopped what he was doing and looked at the being floating on the horizon, his face turning pale and shocked. But he quickly responded—My name is Velari Silva, sir.
The giant being continued to communicate with Velari and she responded in a low voice, almost in a whisper. Aleksei, without understanding, wanted to ask his wife what was happening, but she gave him a serious and terrified look, making him remain silent and he understood that something bad was about to happen.
The giant being continued and said—Velari Silva, you and all those who witnessed my fight will come with me.
Velari, anxious, responded—I beg you, allow my son to stay. He is still small. Take us adults, we will find a way to shorten everyone's awakening.
The giant being took a moment to think and finally agreed—I understand, then, say goodbye to your son. We'll leave in a minute.
Velari fell to her knees weakened in the midst of the destruction. She looked at her son, Alexander, with eyes full of love and despair.
—Alexander — she murmured, extending her hand toward him—, listen carefully. You must go to the ship and wait for the family to arrive. Hide there! The Infernos will come soon! —Velari, hugged his son tightly, while saying his last words—We will not be able to go with you, your father and I must go somewhere and we cannot take you with us—she looked at her son one last time and with tears in his eyes. She continued— But when you're older we'll meet again.
Aleksei also crouched down, placed the device to control the ship on him, and then hugged him—Alexander, you must survive!
—We'll wait for you! And remember that we will always love you, my brave baby! —were the last words Velari could say.
For the first time scared, Alexander wanted to refuse and answer his parents, but something extraordinary happened. Well, his parents, as well as Sophie, Henri and other adults near the area began to mysteriously disappear. Many screamed in terror, seeing that their bodies became transparent and ethereal, as if they were being absorbed by an invisible force.
—Mommy! Daddy! —Alexander shouted, extending his hands towards them, but it was too late. In the blink of an eye, Velari and Aleksei disappeared completely, leaving only an echo of their presence in the air.
The disappearance of Velari and Aleksei left Alexander in a state of shock and sadness, but following his parents' last order, he headed towards the airship. There he locked himself in and fell into a fetal position crying like he had never done before. He was now alone and he didn't know what exactly had happened to his parents or why they had disappeared so mysteriously.
---------------
After the shockwaves ceased, the Silvas again had records of the devices of all their agents near the anomaly area, and to their horror, they noticed that Velari and Aleksei's devices were not on their radars, and the The device near Alexander pulsed emergency lights, implying that he was under attack. Obtaining Alexander's exact location, an elite team set out.
Melac, was designated as the leader of the group. Upon arriving at the location, the disaster that had occurred was evident, destroyed buildings, mangled bodies and spilled blood dripping through the rubble.
The Infernos, upon noticing the presence of a new ship approaching, divided into two groups. One group concentrated on continuing to attack the ship where the objective of their mission was located, a little more and the few defenses it had would be broken. To this end, they attacked without holding back using their strongest attacks.
The other group concentrated on attacking and preventing the arrival of the new ship.
When attacked by a swarm of Infernos, Melac selected five elders, and together with him they launched from the ship. As they fell, they used the nearby Infernos to use as stepping stones to descend. The six elders easily landed and moved quickly in the direction of Alexander. On their way they were eliminating all Inferno that got in their way.
After a few minutes, the Infernos that had surrounded the ship where Alexander was were completely eliminated, and the members of the second group were in retreat while being attacked by the Silvas that were in the rescue ship.
—Do not chase them —Melac ordered the ship's crew through his communicator— , our priority is rescuing Alexander and returning to the base.
Before entering the ship where Alexander was, Melac gave one more order to four of the elders next to him — You spread out and search the place. Collect all the information possible. It will be necessary for the report.
Then, together with the remaining old man, they managed to open and unlock the ship. It was Melac who entered, and found his great-grandson alone and disoriented. He did not seem to have any wounds, but his clothes showed signs of tears and blood stains in several places.
Melac approached his great-grandson, his eyes full of concern and affection. —Alexander — he said softly, kneeling to be at the child's height— , my dear baby.
Alexander looked up when he heard that voice, his red eyes showed that he had been crying. Seeing Melac, he rushed towards him, hugging him tightly. —Grandpa, I thought I would never see you again.
—I'm here, Alexander. You're safe now. —Melac responded, gently caressing her head.
Alexander continued with a trembling voice, —Grandpa, mom and dad... they disappeared. They were here and then... they vanished.
Melac nodded with understanding. —I believe you, Alexander. Can you tell me more? Did you see anything else?
Alexander swallowed and tried to explain what he remembered.—Shortly before Mom disappeared, he took off his earrings and gave them to me. When they disappeared I started to run as fast as I could to get to the ship, but it took too long, and those demons saw me and started to follow me, they were very strong, I was only able to take down two and my weapons broke, but I managed to enter the ship. ship and activate the shields with the bracelet that dad gave me, then those demons were attacking more and more.
—You did well, Alexander. —Melac said as he left the ship with the child in his arms.
Alexander looked at his Grandpa with eyes full of questions and fears, and said—But Grandpa, mom and dad disappeared. I do not know what happened. I want them to come back!
Melac hugged Alexander tighter, feeling the boy's pain and sadness—I'm sorry, Alexander. We will do everything we can to find your parents. But now, you need to be safe. Come on, let's go back to base.
The elders who had scouted the area returned with detailed information about every trace of battle and every trace of residual energy, which they had managed to obtain. Melac made a mental note of everything and they prepared to leave back to Silva base.
The return trip was silent. Alexander was lost in thoughts of him, while Melac hugged him tenderly. The Silva family base loomed in the distance, but Alexander's future was now marked by uncertainty and the absence of his parents.
