Chereads / THE PHANTOMS / Chapter 15 - KRISH

Chapter 15 - KRISH

AT AN UNKNOWN MARKETPLACE IN PAPILLON:

In a market street on the rich side of papillon a starving boy is seen clutching his stomach in pain.

The young boy is short in stature, with bright Pink hair and light blue eyes.

Looking at the bright red apple sitting with it's mates atop the basket, he steels his resolve as he dives in for the apple stealing it with precise speed and accuracy.

After stealing it the boy immediately makes a run for it after tripping several times due to fear. He runs into the alley behind the shop and goes straight down making it hard for the fat pursuing shop owner to keep up.

The fat shop owner doesn't give up, bringing out his hunting rifle from a seemly unknown place, he aims at the little brat taking fire.

"Bang, bang, bang!!", the loud shots whistle through the air as the shop owner spares no effort in trying to kill a little kid for a stolen apple.

All of his shots are blocked by the kid who uses a magic shield to protect himself on three occasions while scrambling away.

"Damn it it's another freak, and this time it's a kid", the shop owner spits violently as he returns to his shop just at the corner.

While all this was going on an unknown deadly looking figure was in a distance watching.

AT MAESTROS SIDE:

Maestro bows as he greets the priest in his temple throne room.

After he had finished greeting the priest gestures for him to rise, "what is it?"

"I wanna know the truth about what happened to tokyo", Maestro directly drops the bomb after rising with a determined face"

"Ha, that question brings back memories you know", the priest chuckles at Maestro determined question.

"Infact I was there during the final war", come let me tell you history, the priest announces enthusiastically.

FLASH BACK:MANY YEARS AGO

Two figures stand directly opposite each other in a contest of power.

Both their intimidating aura's spread wildly throughout the region.

The two figures stands atop the highest building flat top, one of the figured wears red marine like uniform and cap with a one sided cape, while the other figure wears a black military uniform and green hat with a full cape.

"You're too late", the red hat man tells his opponent to his face.

"Stop this madness, we can rule over the humans without doing this, without using her", the green heart man sincerely tells his friend.

"I'm doing this to protect Tokyo first, then the world and besides it has already begun so there's no going back now.

Eight shards of glass gather together in the high up in the morning sky forming a circle, then a magic rune generates from it spreading out violently over the entirety of Tokyo, instantly darkening wherever it passes.

"Yes, yes", red hat man jubilates with monstrous eyes.

"Fine I'll do everything to stop you", green hat man announces as he summons his dragon headed staff.

Red hat man summons his own weapon a double bladed axe and counters green hat mans strike

The both of them start fighting furiously admist the chaos above.

"Clang, clash, pow ,bam", sounds can be heard far and wide as only a green and red light can be seen clashing with each other threatening to destroy all of Tokyo.

"Are you sure you want to stop me or stop that spell, your pick", red hat man taunts the green hat man.

"Green hat man gnashes his tooths together thinking of which to do, save Tokyo or end this mother fucker right now", after deciding in a split second he gathers a great deal of energy from the surrounding ls and blasts it all towards the sky.

"Pow", as the blast touches the rune it forms its own rune clashing with the first one spreading as fast as possible.

The violent clash of two divine runes makes everything and everywhere go dark , a permanent fog generates over the runes putting Tokyo in a never darkness.

"No!!, you'll pay for that, red hat man screams as he is enraged.

But green hat man is on the ground weak from using such royal skill.

As red hat man reaches the green hat man in a heartbeat and strikes another unknown figure swoops in and carries the green hat man and jumps away with incredible force.

"Damn,red hat man enrages as he gnashes his teeth spilling out blood"

Just then the runes above turn into a summoning portal to another realm, unleashing beasts the world had never seen before, locking up the entirety of Tokyo with this beasts.

"Hurry Mariam hurry", an old man says as he drags a woman in her 30s with him trying to outpace this beasts.

The lady Mariam tries to run across the road with the baby in her hands, but See's the large canines of a beast at her face

As she realizes it's too late, tears slip down her face as she throws her baby at the man hoping he will catch it and survive for her sake.

"Arrgh", she screams as she is eaten up brazenly.

The man catches the baby immediately hiding behind a short broken wall using the heavy dust as a cover.

"I had to run away from there as fast as I could, getting to the closest strong hold I could find, but it wasn't easy with a crying baby", the priest tell's Maestro as he recounts his horror filled day's.

"Sorry for making it uneasy dad", Mariam the princess says as they hug.

"It's okay"

"I named her after her mother so I'll never forget her", the priest announces.

After this Maestro took his greetings and left the temple, heading out to help people in anyway he could.

From carpentry, to pottery, to hunting, building, and playing with the young kids, Maestro spend almost all day helping the citizens of papillon to increase freaks recognition in the town.

"Grrrh", Maestro stomach gobbles as he gets hungry.

"Phew, all those work is making me hung, he says while carrying a wild boar to keep in the pent house"

Suddenly an insatiable appetite engulfs Maestro, making him stare at the boar with obvious intent.

"Squeak", the boar tries to break free noticing the sudden change in the way Maestro stares at it.

Maestro runs into an alley as he starts salivating,"fuck this is the fourth time I've eaten raw meat , what's wrong with me"

"Is this your doing sega", meastro asks skeptically.

"Partially, you lack of aura to sustain me causes that insatiable appetite to make up for it through animals life force", if anything you should blame yourself boy, Sega lashes back at him.

"So good", Maestro uncontrollably munchies on the boar.

While eating he suddenly senses another aura similar to his own.

"He gets up and start tracing the aura"

As he gets closer, the aura gets stronger making Maestro leap over walls and buildings to find it.

"Here, Maestro stops as he is directly above it"

After bending over a bungalow building roof, he sights a small boy with pink hair gathering a small ki blast on his left palm of his hand.

"Gasps", the boy senses Maestro aura and looks up slowly with a scared pale face.

At this moment Liz teleports beside Maestro!!!
