Chapter 15 What Adam saw in the Time Pool and what the Fate Jax told Adam

Adam walked down a spiraling staircase that was concealed inside the Time Pool as he walked downwards the water inside the pool parted to the side for him. Adam walked deeper into the pool the water became less crystal clear and was becoming darker and murkier. Adam looked around and saw pictures of random people that he did not even know. the staircase ended and Adam stopped. He looked around and saw an old wooden door at the edge of where the staircase ends. Adam opened the door and went inside once he found himself in a large square room with no windows leading any light from the outside. Adam said, " this does not feel right." He then heard a pop as the room began to fill with water. Adam ran to where he came in and found that the door was gone. He began to pound on the walls as the room filled with water. Just as the whole room was almost full and all hope was lost for Adam, he remembered what Calingar said that nothing could hurt him in the Time Pool. Once the whole room was full of water the walls flew away and Adam stood on a large stone platform Adam looked around and saw nothing but blackness, he found that he could still breathe even though he was underwater. a female voice that sounded like it came from nowhere said in a soft smooth voice" Adam Jackson it is time that you see your destiny!"Adam was trying to figure out where the voice was coming from as he heard the sound of stone crumbling as he saw that the platform that he was standing on was crumbling to pieces Adam yelled " no stop!" he tried to run but his feet were molded to the platform. Adam yelled out " who are you, nameless voice?" the voice replied "I am the Fate Jax and I mean you no harm or ill will. You will soon be set adrift and your destiny will be revealed to you." She said as Adam was set free from the platform Adam looked around and saw a glimpse of people and events that were moving so fast that he could hardly make them all out he could make most of them out and one of the ones he saw was an image of five rings that circled each other, each of these rings was engulfed in a different element there was fire, water, earth, air, and ice. Then these five rings combined with Adam to fight a huge shadow creature with Adam supposed was Zargorwarth wearing eight different rings made of gold each with a different symbol on them. Adam was a bit unnerved by this and said: "what does this all mean unknown evil, kings, mystical pools and curses all I want is to save my planet." The Shadow then swallowed up Adam. After a few seconds, he landed on a bunch of pillows in a spacious room. Adam had calmed down and decided to ask the Fate all his questions "Fate Jax thank you for seeing me." Adam said as he got comfily " you are quite welcome" said a young woman with long blonde hair wearing a skin-tight dress made of Spider-Dragon silk her eyes were blindfolded by a large brown blindfold " do you have any questions for me?" Adam replied "yes I do. What do the five rings have to do with defeating Zargorwarth the Demon Lord and why does he have one already?" they were both silent for a moment and then Jax replied: "what did this ring look like?" Adam thought for a minute and said: "it was gold and had a picture of hydra on it." Jax nodded and said, "It seems that you have a rare gift one that not many mortals have." Adam asked the Fate "what are you talking about?" she replied "you have the power to see a glimpse into the future Adam said, "so what I saw in my room was a glimpse of the future." He clutched at his chest and Fate Jax replied: " don't worry the future can be changed by any event in the past so what you saw may not even pass it might just be a vision of what might happen."Adam then told her everything else that he saw and after hearing all of this said " I will come back up to the surface with you and tell you what you must do to defeat Zargorwarth the Demon Lord. She then stood up and took an old dusty wooden box from a shelf. She then walked over to the wall and pressed her hand into the brick and purple lighting emerged from the wall forming into a large swirling vortex. She motioned for Adam to follow her Adam got up and walked towards the swirling vortex. Fate Jax said to Adam who seemed unsure that this was a good idea. "it will be fine this is the only way out of my pocket dimension called the Domain of Time." Fate Jax entered the portal and Adam followed her once he entered, he was rocketed back up to the surface at lighting speed he saw bright colors swirling all around him. All sudden Adam saw a bright light and was thrust out of the pool and onto the grass. He tried to stand but his legs felt like they were made of jelly and he tried to speak but ended up vomiting.Fate Jax was watching Adam display and said: "so I take it that was your first time in a wormhole." Adam had stopped vomiting and said weakly "yes it was." He stood up rested himself against a tree for a moment once he could now walk freely they walked towards the Temple of Light and Darkness Adam asked Fate Jax " how long has it been since you have been to the surface?" Fate Jax replied "it has been Eons since I have been to the Realm of Man. But I keep myself in the know of what events befall the race of Man. I find them rather interesting." They then reached the Temple of Light and Darkness where the rest of the Six were training and once they saw Adam they stopped and greeted him warmly. Fate Jax said to them "we most all talk together in the presence of King Calingar. They nodded their heads and lead her into the main throne room.Once she was in the throne room she marched right up to Calingar and slapped him on the side of his face and cried out " You fool did you think that just training them in the ways of self-defense would help them at all in defeating Zargorwarth the Demon Lord." Calingar was not fazed by this at all being that he thought that training them was a good idea. But if the Fate was mad then he most of done something beyond stupid " why what's wrong?" he asked calmly as he saw a vein appear on Fate Jax's head " I will tell you what is wrong Zargorwarth the Demon Lord has one of the Rings of Darkness and if he gets the other seven he will become unbeatable." Fate Jax said as she pressed herself up against Calingars' face.Everyone was watching Calingar to see what he would do. "In my defense." He said pushing Fate Jax back away from his face " I did know that Zargorwarth has one of the Rings of Darkness and I also know that if he finds the other seven then darkness will have a grip over the universe." Luke asked Calingar "what does that mean?" Calingar replied, " the Rings of Darkness are one of Tylingarieas' most powerful relics they are crafted out of pure darkness and if a person has all seven rings they will become unstoppable and have the power to control all of the darkness in Multi-Verse." Calingar walked over to a large golden cabinet that had two dragon faces carved on it. Adam said, "so if Zargorwarth gets all seven of the Rings of Darkness he can have the power to control not just this world but every world." Fate Jax replied, "it is worse than that he will have the power to bring darkness and evil to any timeline he wishes be it past or future." Calingar pressed two fingers into the dragon's eyes and the cabinet opened revealing that in the cabinet door was a blank map, a large journal wrapped in dragon leather with ancient lettering, there sat two dark blue blades crafted from black steel,a red and brown compass that was made of carved wood and a dragon bone sword "Six of Legend you are about to embark on an epic quest to defeat Zargorwarth the Demon Lord an evil that of with this world has not seen in Eons. This quest will decide the fate of this world and countless others. You will see things that many of you might have thought were impossible. I give you these gifts to aid you in your quest to find the five Rings of Light your first step in defeating Zargorwarth the Demon Lord." Adam asked Calingar "why five? Does one of us not need a Ring?" Calingar replied"yes, Adam you will not need a Ring of Light for your power will be fueled by the other five Rings." Jason asked Calingar "how do we find these Rings of Light?"Calingar replied, "with the gift's I am giving you." He gave Jason a compass and said: "This is a magical compass and will point to whatever you desire." Jason put the compass in his pocket what he desired most was not a worthless ring but to obtain the power of immortality the one treasure that had wished for more than anything. Calingar gave Victor the blank map this map had seven marks in the corner and said: "This map will lead you to your next location and each of the marks is a Ring of Darkness that is left." Calingar pointed to the scratches and said: " it is imperative that you find the Rings of Light before Zargorwarth the Demon Lord finds the seven reaming Rings of Darkness because when all of the scratches are gone then Zargorwarth has found all of the Rings of Darkness." Victor opened the map and once he did the map came to life with a vide and lifelike landscape. Calingar then gave Nina a Journal that contained knowledge about all the life on Tylingariea who took it happily and started reading it right away,he then gave Luke two blue Gorblin crafted metal daggers"Kai'la I have something special to give you," Calingar said as he removed a dark blue cloth that had silver stars etched on it. Kai'la was speechless as she was given the cloth. She felt the weight of a sword under the cloth.Kai'la removed a silver short sword a streak of blue Kai'vaneon was bond inside of the sword etched on the blade were the words "May Kara be with you always."Kai'la had the presence of mind to place the sword back into its sech and onto her belt "how did you get Stareater?" Kai'la said her voice low but tense."Silva gave it to me, he came to me two years before the explosion and gave me his sword, I told me I could not take such an important Kai'lareon relic. But he told me that he wanted you to have it when you came here. When he dies, he wants his Kyi to live on through his bladeKai'la did not know how to react to this. A mixture of anger, sadness, and confusion filled her head "Kill him Kai'la" she heard a voice in the back of her mind say in the voice of SilvaShe placed her right hand on her blade. The unknown mixture of feelings swirling in her mind. Kai'la leaped towards Calingar her blade drawn. Luke was the closet he drew his sword and prepared for the strike."Stop Kai'la, you're going to kill Luke!" Nina cried out as Kai'la's vision returned moments before she hit Luke. Kai'la looked around her blade still drawn and the realization that she almost killed a human being."Damn, emotions," Kai'la said as she put her sword away and ran into the courtyard. Adam started towards her, but was stopped by Nina, she shook her head "no, I need to talk to her Alone."The night was cool and crisp Kai'la sat on a wooden bench under a tall tree Nina walked over to Kai'la and sat down. "I am not mad at you. No one is upset with you," Nina said Kai'la sighed " I know but I just did what I knew, and doing so I almost killed your brother with the sword of my own thereby destroying any honor he had left."Nina could see the sadness in her from retrieving her brother's sword. " I would like to know more about your brother he seems like a very important person, I would not mind learning more about your ways and I will teach you about Terrain ways," Nina said to Kai'laThere was a silence Kai'la looked at Nina a slight smile on her face "Yes, I would like that."Nina smiled then said, "how do you say friend in Kai?"Kai'la replied "Jinji. The word is Jinji."Nina grasped Kai'la's hand and said, "well then I guess we are best Jinjis." After Kai'la and Nina had returned Adam asked Calingar "who gets the first ring?" Calingar replied "the order of the Ring of Light is by how you got here so it would be Victor, Kai'la La'gar, Nina, Luke and then Jason.I have to warn you each ring is set deeper in Tylingariea and possibly closer to Zargorwarth the Demon Lords realm the closer you get to his realm the more cautious you must be." Calingar then said to the Six ���I assume that my brother Ralingar will be waiting in the throne room to help you on your quest I will teleport you to the throne room to meet with him." Before Calingar teleported them away Nina asked Calingar "will you come with us?" Calingar replied "I cannot stay here and keep the balance of good from shifting just until Zargorwarth is defeated.Good luck and may the Gods be with you." Calingar teleported the Six back to the Thorne Room. Where a tall man with a medium build, golden blonde hair, dark green eyes and a ring with an eagle on it with was the Raz family crest was holding a Ralgarzorion Crafted long sword ten inches away from Kai'la's throat " I will only ask this once are you friend or foe?" Kai'la La'gar replied, "I am friend now put that sword away or I'll make you wish that you killed me." Ralingar took the sword away from her throat and said " I am sorry you were carrying a blade that seemed to look like the ones carried by Vorpal Huntsman I took it on myself to believe that you were here to rob my bothers home. But since you are not dressed like a Vorpal then I am deeply sorry for almost cutting your head clean off" Jason blew smoke from his cigarette and said with a sarcastic tone ", so I take it your Ralingar, do you normally meet people at knifepoint or is that just the normal way to say hello?" Jason askedRalingar replied ignoring Jason "it is getting dark and it is not good to be out in the dark." Ralingar motioned for them to follow him and Jason asked Ralingar looked at Jason a chill ran down Jason's spine what he saw in Ralingars eyes was coldness an icy black abyss that was void of humor, his stare stared right into the very depths of your soul and froze your heart to any icy block.The rest of the group saw this even though they could not sense Kyi Adam let out a cry of fear as he felt waves of darkness emitting from Ralingar like an ocean. Ralingar turned away from Jason his Kyi succeeding "do you know of any where to stay?" Kai asked and put a hand on Ralingars shoulder and whispered "control your anger around Jason, I felt that you were about ten seconds away from killing him, Adam felt it. Ralingar nodded and replied "I am staying at the Singing Siren it is just down the road.They will not mind a few more guests we can talk there." Before Adam and Victor could say anything to change Ralingars' mind he said: "alright that sounds like a fine idea I love me some gorge and food." Nina looked at Victor who seemed worried. Nina then cried out loud enough for Jason to hear her "sure let us just follow the man to a seedy Inn. The same man who just tried to behead Kai'. This sounds like a great plan Jason."
