Unlikely Saviors
« on: January 16, 2010, 12:26:03 AM »
The destination portal opens up in a cargo hold inside a strange ship with architecture Valor/Hiren had never seen before. He fell upon the cold metal with a massive burst of heat coming from the portal behind him, before it quickly closed. All around the room, he could hear metallic scuttling, like bugs made of steel walking along the walls of the dark room. Very few lights were on, casting eerie shadows about Hiren. It would seem that there's no other living things in the room with him, yet still there seems to be something off, something strange.

Seeing the world through a child's eyes is truly a unique experience. It helps you to retrieve that sense of awe, magic and wonder that you lost as you lost your innocence. Tell me, when was the last time that you thought of those childhood dreams? You know, the ones that you used to spend all your time wondering and fantasizing about? Have you forgotten them so easily? Have you forgotten what it felt like to see something for the first time, to see the magic in the mundane? Everyone says you should take the time to 'Stop and smell the roses'. But you should also take the time to look for the fairies, embrace the wind and enjoy the rain. Just once today, stop for a moment and look into that little piece of nature you pass everyday. Perhaps you may see something you did not notice before.

Valor didn't detect anyone by using magic and decided it was time for him to heal himself in order to pose a greater threat to the voice that said they would kill him and so he begin to focus on the healing aspect of Divae and channel it through his body healing wounds slowly at first, then targeting the 3rd degree burns and erasing them from existence. He decided however that Celestie would be spared and so would Nisorin. He would find some other way to trump the Relorians. Perhaps a special spell of his that he had learned.

Unfortunately, the moment he started using his magic, the loud whirr of several generators echoes through the hold, projecting a very dense AM field into the room.

"My my, is the pain too much for you Hiren? Oh wait, there actually shouldn't be that much pain, considering the extent of your burns. You'll be lucky, even with magic, to ever get feeling back in the majority of your skin. So tell us all, Kuo, how does it feel to be the reason an entire planet died?" An oddly familiar voice calls out over the generators, a small golden glint near the opposite end of the room. "Before you even try it, your AAM medallion no longer has power. The planet was destroyed, and is now nothing more than a small violet sun." The voice adds venomously, as if mocking Valor.

Valor then slowly walked through the door and undid the strap that kept his sword tied inside it's sheath. He would need both his sword and his sage gun for this and so he took the sage gun discreetly out of it's holster and loaded an animte full of residual magic into the ammo slot on it. He then walked to the door as quietly as he could and opened it as stealthily as he could. He then ran through as fast as he could.

As he reached the door, he found it blocked by a body. "What's wrong, can't see?" The voice asks, shoving the wounded man away. "And put your weapons away. You're looking at your savior after all. Show some respect." He adds, closing and locking the door. "If you wish for the lights to be turned on, just say so."

Sighing he once again went through the tedious process of sheathing and tying his sword into place. In addition he took out the animite out of his sage gun effectively removing it's power supply. He kept his Divae Long sword strapped to his waist though and let the Sage Gun fall to the ground. He then went and knocked on the door.

The man laughs and shakes his head. "Yet again, would you like me to turn the lights on, Hiren Dark?"

"Oh, you know I can't do that Hiren, we can't let you get away in that condition after all. You might end up trying to run, and that would cause your skin to crack right open, possibly even start to fall off, flake by crispy, charred little flake." The voice says, clapping twice. The lights promptly turn on, blinding Hiren with their brightness for a moment. Before the door, with his nose literally half an inch away from Hiren's, stands Kerion. "My my, you do look just as bad as you smell. Your hair's all burned up, your skin's charred black, how truly horrid. But, I suppose the most painful wound is the internal one. After all, you did just cause the destruction of an entire planet, the deaths of billions of people. Their lives lay on your head, Hiren Dark, their blood is on your hands."

"Yes, and I hate myself for it. "  Hiren did indeed hate himself both for betraying Reloria and not for standing to fight Rogue like he should have done. "Now Gallaghar will try to kill me too. I guess if he does succeed then the blood will be off my hands." said Hiren sadly.

He laughs almost cruelly and shakes his head. "The blood will always be on your hands, Hiren. Not even death can absolve you of that. But, you can atone. If you survive your wounds of course." He replies, pulling a flake of charred skin off of Hiren's cheek. "Do you remember me?"

"Yes I remember you Kerion. " said Valor regaining some confidence. "When you guys left I sort of joined up with the Legacy Empire and helped them make AAM Medallions for themselves as a sort of protection for them since AM fields became standard issue for everyone. In exchange they gave me a Sage Gun. " He pointed at the empty one on the floor near him.

Looking down at the gun, Kerion shakes his head with a growl. "You have no pride, no respect. You gave away AAM jewelry technology, for a fucking weak ass rifle?!" He shouts, picking the gun up. "You're a damn mage, what do you need this thing for?"

"Not the technology. They already knew how to make it. They improved it. That gun in AM shields is invaluable. It can link to your magic and fire blasts from it. "

He smirks at the chunk of metal and promptly snaps off the trigger. "Oops. My my, seems I broke your little toy. I'm sorry." He says, dropping the trigger into a trash compactor nearby. "You see Hiren, many, many Relorians still call for your death, even after these ten long years. Nisorin couldn't come here himself for that very reason. We were all afraid that he'd break the ship trying to finish you off. Personally, I don't think that'd be such a bad thing. After all, there'd be no question that you would be dead. And the fallen Relorians that you caused the deaths of would make sure that you didn't stay in Heaven for very long. In any case, there is the pressing concern of what to do with you. You really can't offer a fair fight in your condition."

Valor then thought of an answer and then said to Kerion "I will tell you all a secret of magic I learned. A power stronger than Relorian Magic and much easier to control if you heal me. I will also weave a death spell so it will seem that I am dead to the other Relorians and go by the new name I have taken up, Valor Konoriforos. The relorians since my magical signature has changed will not know it is me at all in fact I will be able to work for Reloria and atone my bloodguilt. "

Kerion laughs, this time with cruelty dripping from his voice. "Your wounds won't heal for years, Kuo, even with magic. It would take a fairly large group of Angels to heal your wounds within a year. So, I am sorry, but that will not be possible. Not only that, but I am afraid that you are still branded as a Kuo, as you will be your entire life. You working with us would be unacceptable, regardless of the circumstances."

Valor then said "A large group of Angels or....." He stopped there not wanting to tell his secret to him yet. He felt like he couldn't trust Kerion with this particular secret of magic and had no reason to trust Kerion yet.

Walking over to Hiren, Kerion laughs low and murderously. "Or what, little Kuo?" He asks, shoving the man to the ground. "Angels or what? Are you going to make a pact with Lucifer? Or perhaps, 'Him?' Do you really believe that they will be more merciful than I?" He shouts, swinging the butt end of the broken rifle at Hiren's head.

The butt end of the rifle slams hard into Hiren's mouth, whipping his head to turn around quite hard, knocking several scorched teeth out in the process. "I am not a fool, Kuo. You, as your title shows, give no one true loyalty. You betrayed us, you betrayed the people of Nosvasia, and you betrayed Gallaghar. Do you really think your oath to him will mean anything, you pathetic little leech?"

(And yes, I can do that, since you made no move to stop Kerion when he started swinging.)

Hiren then told Kerion of the waters of healing that Gallaghar had discovered on Magimeta by accident and told him about but made him swear never to tell a single person from this dimension about. "How can I undo the betrayal of the Relorians or at least Atone for it?"

He laughs even harder than he did before. "Undo?! You want to undo your mistake?! Impossible! Because of you, two planets are destroyed! Billions of families are shattered and suffering! You, who once pledged to uphold the Diviae values, have fallen. You, who promised to protect the balance, destroyed it! Every Relorian alive wants a piece of you, Hiren Dark." He snarls, hoisting the bloodied gun up for a second swing. "You are undeserving of pity, or of mercy."

Valor was quick. He thought of his hand as a blade and then used it to knock the gun from Kerion's hand with a single stroke. He had hit the nerves in Kerion's hands causing him to drop the gun. He then said "Since you took one of my teeth. " He then kicked Kerion in the groin. When Kerion was down on the ground he took the AAM Medallion from around Kerion's Neck. "Thank you dunce for providing me with a disguise."
