After Ashley left, Misu stayed for a while reading books about the four masters "this isn't helping" she thought "I already know those things" she closed the fifth book she read today and sighed.
Looking around she found a book called THE MASTER, she soon remembered what Ashley told her about THE MASTER and ignored it.
She sat down alone for a couple of minutes till one of the royal guards entered the library searching for Misu shouting "miss Misu" repeatedly , Misu heard him and went downstairs immediately, the guard saw her coming and said "miss Misu, you're invited by prince Katalond to the castle tonight, I'll be the one to escort you there", everyone was shocked and surprised, "a fairy inside the castle?!" That idea terrified most of them, but some thought "she's kinda cute, I know why the prince would want her in the castle", no body really know the intentions of the prince order except Misu.
It wasn't night yet sadly, so Misu had to wait somewhere until night, luckly, the guard was on her side, he seemed unbothered with her walking beside him which made her feel safe, she missed that feeling…
"Are we gonna walk till night sir?" Misu asked,"it's only two hours before night, you can walk or sit anywhere you want, I'm order to be on your side until you go to the castle and not buy you a house to spend the night" the guard replied with an ignorant tone, Misu felt embarrassed and continued walking while looking down, "mmm yes, ground" Misu said sarcastically, the guard giggled, which caught Misu off guard, she didn't expect that, a smile has been drawn on her face, she felt so happy and started talking "so, is it hard being one of the royal guards for the greatest kingdom?","depends on the person" the guard answered "for me, I don't find it hard, there's no great danger upon us, there's no right minded king or queen will dare attack us, it's just minor inner problems, street fights, harassment or rape, suicidal activities, black mailing, and those things, every kingdom have those things I'm sure, except Hallelujah and Aquarius, those two kingdoms are known to be the safest for all, citizens and visitors, but unlike our kingdom, they don't welcome other creatures as citizens","isn't Selana safe as well" Misu wondered for the guard to respond "Selana is one of the most atrocious places to ever exist, the people their are like slaves, no wonder nothing bad happens, no one can even do a thing without being judged and punished, I heard from prince Katalond that you weren't born their, you're lucky for that","lucky…" Misu said quietly, she then looked at the guard with confusion "but sir, what I read in books is the opposite of what you said, the people of Selana have a lot of freedom, not the most, we both know that Olympus is the kingdom of freedom, but you got what I'm trying to say right?…do you really even know someone from Selana?" the guard looked at Misu without any will to respond to her "let's keep walking" said the guard in an apathetic tone…
Not much passed until every creature in the Kingdom Of Hell started hearing the dreadful screaming that came from the sky…
A loud sound that shook the ground, the terrifying flying creature was roaming around in the sky screaming, the guard who was with Misu shouted for every guard around his area "PREPARE YOURSELVES GUARDS!".
Suddenly! The creature attacked the wall causing it to fall so easily destroying houses and killing a lot of innocent creatures like nothing, the king opened his window that was high in the castle, the king was a grumpy old muscular man with thick beard and dark skin, he yelled "YOU STARTED A WAR AGAINST THE GREATEST KINGDOM!!! GUARDS! ATTACK AT ONCE!!!".
The guards started throwing arrows using their powers, arrows of flame and water flying towards the creature.
The citizens of the kingdom were in terror, some tried to fight alongside the guards, some ran away and some froze in their places not knowing what to do.
Arrows and spears of Fire,Water,Rock and Wind were seen flying in the sky towards the flying creature, some of the arrows and spears hit innocent people and destroyed properties.
While that was happening, Ashley was walking far from the battlefield holding hands with a strange tall white man with long straight raven hair and full beard, he was shirtless with an athletic build, his upper clothes tied on his hips and his eyes closed all the time, he also had a huge sword on his back with a crescent moon shaped rear end on the handle, Ashley looked at the creature with a grin and said "he's doing too much isn't he my love?","I can't see" answered the man,"well whatever" Ashley kept on talking "the house is not far now, we just have to not be seen by people so let's hurry up already".
Their footsteps became faster and faster with every step while walking, they reached the humble house of Ashley finally.
In the meantime, Katalond was outside the kingdom inside a cave talking to a strange creature with four arms "waiting for your turn?" Said Katalond with a smile on his face.
Back to Misu, who was walking slowly towards the gate, she was scared, terrified, shocked, she couldn't even look at any direction but forward, cause everywhere she looked there's a dead body.
She was walking on them shivering, stamping every one of them, stepping on their faces, legs, arms, breaking their bones, crushing their eyes, she held into her clothes so tightly to the point where her veins became more visible, filled with dread she kept on walking forward while more people died and more buildings got destroyed.
Returning to Ashley inside her house with the strange man, inside that small humble house there was secret passage to somewhere bigger,"Rick" said Ashley, Rick nodded without Ashley having to continue her sentence, there was a huge metallic plate on the ground under the carpet, Rick moved the huge metallic plate to reveal that under it is a metallic door with digital lock made of 4 alphabet combination, Ashley stepped in to enter the code which was O.R.A.S.
The door opened and they went inside, it was a secret lab build under that small house, a decent sized lab, they started gathering some equipments and other stuffs, then Ashley went to another metallic door inside the lab with a specific key lock, she used the key she had in her pocket and opened the door and their was another door right after it with a face recognition lock, it scanned her face and got unlock, inside there was nothing but a small box, she pointed at her forehead and said "you will be needed in that day".
She looked at Rick and said "honey, get the box won't you, we will be leaving now","where are you planning to go next?" Rick said questioning Ashley "I'm not going back to ZooTool that's for sure","don't worry" Ashley said with an unsure tone "we're not going's back to ZooTool I assure you that , and obviously we can't go to Selana or Hallelujah, and this is not good because I'm not really sure where to go now and Eric is still searching for me so we need a place where he can't find me for a year or two at least", Rick put his hands on Ashley's shoulder and said with a soft tone and a smile "let's think about it after we get out of this kingdom", Ashley smiled back and said "you're right, let's head out quickly".
When Misu was about to reach the gate and get out of this massacre, Katalond appeared in front of her unexpectedly "leaving too soon aren't you?" Said Katalond smiling, tears started to fall like a river out of Misu's eyes while she screamed "you have to do something! Everyone is dying! Everything is being destroyed! The kingdom will fall!!", Katalond put his right palm on Misu's face gently and wiped out her tears with his thumb and said with a warm smile "get as far as you can, I'll handle it", Misu nodded and continued walking towards the gate to leave the kingdom as soon as possible.
Katalond had a serious expression on his face, you can hear every step he make "GUARDS" Katalond called over "RETREAT FROM THE FIGHT AND CLEAR THE KINGDOM, we don't want more citizens to die".
Ashley and Rick finally escaped the kingdom and went far on a horse "where we heading?" The horse asked, "just go as far as you can" Rick replied, Ashley was using a high advance map that had a lot of coloured dots and symbols, "the red dot was Eric right?" Rick wondered, "no" Ashley responded "that's Sora, Eric is the purple one","I was wondering why Eric was heading to Arceus, he doesn't leave the facility ever" Rick said","wait how can you see?" The horse asked surprised by the fact the Rick can see, but the horse didn't notice that Rick was wearing a weard technological advanced sunglasses on him, "don't you see his glasses dummy" Ashley said bothered by the question, the Horse got offended by the question and said "well no because I can't tilt my head upwards to see your stupid faces thank you very much…so the glasses that you talking about, how does it work? Does it just give you back your sight?","I never lost my sight" Rick answered "it just got so bad that everything got blurry, the glasses just help me see better and also analyse different objects, call, and other weird things that have no use for me but Ashley put them anyway".
Misu left the kingdom and never looked back, she was so scared to witness more.
The king joined the fight alongside Katalond against the flying creature, the fight was intense, Katalond using his thunder and the king using his flames to hit the creature, the creature got mad and struck the two with might thunder from the sky, the king got hurt so badly but not Katalond, "you're the electric master of the legendaries" Katalond said with a surprise looking on his face "…but thunder doesn't effect other electric masters that much, this fight will be long", the king is trying his best to stand up after that hit landed on him, he groaned and screamed to endure the pain.
The creature flew down to continue the fight, the king saw that as an opportunity so he grabbed the creature tail and used his strength to throw it and cause damage to it, he then continued attacking with flame punches all over the creature body "you're strong in the sky but not on land" said the king while punching.
The wall got destroyed…another creature has approached, a tall muscular four armed creature with two extra eyes on each side of it chest, the four armed creature ran quickly and punched the king so hard, Katalond interfered and started fighting the four armed creature "do you really think you can beat an ancient creature?" The four armed creature said with a smirk "won't know until I try" Katalond responded, while the two were fighting, the flying creature got up and went on hitting the king, then it grabber the king with it fangs and went flying high in the sky to drop the king, the king struggled to escape the flying creature's fangs, he used his flames to set himself on fire, which caused his armor to melt and the flying creature to let go, while falling the king used his flames to slow himself down to land probably on the ground without any damage, the flying creature was screaming with anger.
The kingdom is falling, the mighty Kingdom Of Hell is falling…
The fight continued for a long time, none of the four wanted to stop, they fought until last breath…
Katalond outraged and started destroying everything while fighting the four armed creature, his powers exceeded, the four armed creature was struggling, Katalond caused more destruction than the two creatures did, he started lifting and throwing rocks randomly, and hitting the four armed creature with different attack combinations.
"This is fun" said the four armed creature "but our job here is done", he stepped away from Katalond and shouted "Vronti!, let's leave", Vronti flew down and took the four armed creature on it back and flee.
The four armed creature laughed and yelled from above "the Kingdom Of Hell has fallen!"…
Indeed it did, with thousands of people dead on the ground and others not willing to comeback, the survived citizens were so desperate at this point, nothing is left for them, their homes got destroyed and their families died a hideous death.
The castle was the only building that hasn't been touched at all, which made the citizens suspect that this was planned by one of the royal family members, "where's the queen?" Someone asked madly "the queen location is not your concern" the king responded, "she is on a diplomatic mission with Selana" Katalond said, everyone gasped and started whispering to each other "Selana!","this is a betrayal","did Selana send those creatures?", the king looked at Katalond with anger, "but why is she in Selana my king?" Katalond asked, the king became more furious, "are you trying to say that this is the queen's fault?!","no body knows, but isn't it weird that for long none dared to attack, but the moment the queen left, the kingdom fell", the citizens grow more and more concerned.
"People of Hell! For long things had been kept secret from you, even from me" Katalond declared "but not anymore! Everything is clear now, you might be wondering where a lot of soldiers go? Secret missions? No! They're sent to Selana as special forces, our soldiers and weapons and also food are sent to Selana without us knowing, they've been providing our enemies with supplies!!", the king didn't interrupt, cause he know that if he did something, nothing will go well…
Misu got far far away from the kingdom, she sighed and let herself fall down on the grass and started tearing up "that was so terrifying".
Days passed, the survived citizens of the Kingdom of Hell rebel against the the king and killed him with the help of Katalond , they went to live in Dawn which made Dawn so crowded, while Katalond went on somewhere else.
Misu decided to continue her journey, what happened has happened, she can't just stay hidden from danger.
The journey continues while the time passes, still no sign of the Greatest Evil…
