Chapter 11 - Consequences

"you came?" Asked Orphinian, a man in white coat showed up, with a beaming smile, he walked proudly towards her, "why on earth would I miss such events" He said.

"Niennman, you shouldn't bring your pets along side gathering" Said Orphinian as she look behind him, the man laughed mechanically, and look at the small human girl he dragged behind him, "oh, how I wish I had an original human, she isn't a human, she is a shape-shifter I got for a cheap price" Said Niennman, but Orphinian never asked for such information, she was long gone the moment he started explaining were he got the pet.

"Heh, Orphinian, that's rude!" Niennman walked and caught up to her, "oh, by the way, congratulations for your achievements in capturing the human weapon Creg Snow " Said Niennman, but Orphinian wasn't pleased with the praise, a lot were sacrifice, and a lot of resources used to capture one old man, and the worse, he collapse and he is in a comma since then, if not of the supreme Lord, she would have smacked the body to pieces until she is satisfied, she never knew why this particular guy annoyed her so much.

"Is they gate ready?" Asked Orphinian, her men's all in black hoods nodded, a Giant Mirror stood there, it gradually rippled as another image was shown, soon a passage to a hall was shown, Orphinian immediately dragged the coffin sealing away Snow's body into the mirror, followed behind by Niennman and his pet.

An expressionless man sat on a throne four times larger than him, he kept on spacing around with no interest at the noisy hall, booming with arguments of different entities.

Ripples were heard and the hall gradually went quiet as Orphinian crossed the mirror dragging with her the coffin, only at this moment the spacing being focus back and gave her a sight glance, "Good to see you Orphinian, isn't a left hand be by my side?" Asked the being.

"I never accepted such position supreme Lord" Said Orphinian while proclaiming her respect by the usual ceremonial bowing to him, same did the others behind her.

"Why do you both never show up, Gust is always absent and despite my power, I can never pin point where his is in the cube" Said The supreme being ignoring what Orphinian just said, "did you bring it?" He asked, Orphinian nodded and turn to point at the coffin, but it was no longer there, Orphinian did not ask any questions and look at the Supreme Lord, who was looking at the coffin who had suddenly shrunk to a palm size, he looked at the glass mirror and saw Snow's sleeping figure, "I finally got you boy, but-" He turn towards Orphinian, "Your mission isn't complete, were are his gloves?" He asked, Orphinian was silent, The Lord's aura grew to the point, the whole space ripple and shook, people were trembling and sweating in fear, Orphinian did not move, but could feel the pressure, but they was no change to her cold emotions.

"I see, Beruk, show yourself " The Lord pocket the coffin and look up to the sky, soon, a figure, shaking like a leaf showed up, "yes, yes my lord" He answered.

"You have been hiding the presence of your activities, to the point of crossing to another world and dragging with you another human, I would say, I am happy, you did great, despite the fact that, all humans abducted ended up dying before the reach our world, one have miraculously survived like the first five who appeared years ago" Said the Lord, Beruk was shaking in fear, "I am hono-" He was stopped on the line.

"But, I am not please with what followed up, a week has already passed since he was brought to this world, you kept the issue hidden from your superiors and lord, you even hinder one of them in their task and kept failing for a whole week in getting your hands on him, I am disappointed " Said the Lord, Orphinian mean while had already turn around and left the hall through the mirror, Niennman waved her goodbye and muttered, "until we meet again "

When the mirror close up, the Lord's disgusting giant hand was seen slamming on Beruk's true form body as if he was an ant, "how did it go my lady?" Asked Orphinian men, she smiled and waved at them, she moved forward, "I have a task for one of you, they time I am absent, I wish of you to get some information for me" Said Orphinian, one if the hidden men nodded.

The Lord breathed in boredom as he resurrected Beruk once again, "I am tired, you joint force with Niennman and get me those gloves and human " He ordered, Niennman was pleased, he dragged Beruk away and disappeared in sparkle of light beam, leaving the Lord alone in his prison, "how long am I going to be kept imprisoned, when I break out, all worlds, dimensions and time shall be mind" He said with a big smile on his face, he clapped his hands once again and the numerous mirrors went back to their noise, but which were actually agonies of those in pain and sufferings.

On the table, a pair of Gauntlet gloves, professor X kept on adjusting his glasses again and again, "no matter how I look at them, I still can't believe it, this are the real, one of the Artefacts " He said.

"So, what is actually this artefact that you have been blabbering again and again?" Asked Ibara scratching her bandage, "How do you know him, he said his name was Creg Snow, and talked about stuffs like map and Dairy" Said Brian, he slapped away Ibara's hand from her bandages, she looked at him asking him what? And he looked back at her, don't remove it.

Professor X stood up and went a shelves, he dragged out one particularly old and big book, "To know everything, you need to know about the people who came here, The Purgatory Fall lands also referred to as the CUBE has numerous secrets, mysteries and lost history, nobody knows the real creator of the cube, and it's objective, but among all the legends and myth, exist this one, the Five humans of the other world" Said Professor X.

Once open a time, a group of five scientific researchers as the called themselves played with powers beyond their understanding trying to understand the split that exist between dimensions and all. In their search of understanding, they broke the law of the line in creating the first Artefacts, [The Tear] A sword forged with the technology of that time to tear space, the consequences was they five being dragged into the space torn. Excited by the successful experiment, they soon realize that they were Trapped within an unknown world, they tried studying it, but soon found out how hostile it was, but they didn't give up, with the help of some locals, they made four other artefacts.

[The Glue ] A long chain capable of sealing down distorted space.

[The wrath] Gauntlet gloves capable of summoning other distorted dimension and opening small portals.

[The Destroyer ] A gun that could literally destroy any existence and dimensional portals.

[The Box] A dimensional space box, which has an artificial dimension within, made to hide from external threats.

Adding with the [Tear] It made up Five artefacts, which could be fuse together so as to bring out all their potentials, but hidden forces waited for this moment to strike in other to get their hands on them, a war broke out and only one human came out Alive from the aftermath, and the main culprit was locked down in a dimensional space unable to get out as long as the Artefacts are never brought back together, in other to have an opportunity to escape this prison, the existence bestowed the artefact an absolute resistance, can't never be destroyed.

He had to hide them away from the view of all and run away from the followers of the being who wanted to free him, to this day, he was never seen again.

"His name was the human weapon, Creg Snow the wrath, and this was the weapons that contributed the most, the Wrath Gauntlet gloves, but the description said it was white and not black" Said Professor X.

"It must be due to it's constant exposure to fight and battle that it turn this black, it's quite thick " Said Ibara as she touched it, she felt a slight electrical impulse she retracted her hand, "be careful, they were made to repel any resident of this world, only recognized Humans" Said X, Brian looked down at the gloves, "No matter what, this is an important clue to crack out a way out of the cube" Said Brian, "we need to find his diary, so, ehmm, who knows how to read maps?" Asked Brian, Ibara looked at X, "don't look at me, I am not an explorer, but I know someone who can help" Said X.

The next day.

Bam!

"I am here!" Shouted the lady with green hairs and pretty brown skin, well dressed in black pants, light faded green shirt and a brown jacket, she looked around and saw a human and Xavier eating breakfast, or to say Xavier was eating breakfast and the human was selecting what was eatable.

"What the hell!" She shouted, the door immediately close up and a chair appeared behind her and pushed her, she sat down "Ah!" Blurting out a cute moan, the chair walked to the table, "oh, good morning Greenwood, how are you doing today?" Asked X politely with a big smile, but Green was still in shock as she stared at Xavier and later at Brian who nodded at her, meanwhile, Ibara was turning on her bed searching for the best position to continuer her sleep, "please, be quiet " She said.
