The Golden Era
"Aten! Aten! Come over here!" The girl screamed.
"Would you be quiet Amara?!" The man said. He pointed ahead. "You see that? That's a alpha".
The man was pointing at an unknown creature. The creature was on land. The grass was covered in cold, with the pitch black night sky.
The creature had blue scale skin, stood around 40 feet tall, walked on all fours with its long, skinny legs, long attennaes that stretched from its head all the way to the ground, and ate at the grass. It was like a giant horse.
"An alpha Mograte". A boy whispered. He crawled out from the tall grass and lay beside Amara.
"My favorite student: Aten".
"I'm everyone's favorite". Aten chuckled.
"Not true. Stop hyping yourself up…beat". Amara mummbled.
"Both of you need to stop and focus. The only way we go home is if we bring the head of these creatures. You two aren't ready for an alpha. We will go for the betas". The man said.
"Adin…I have yet to see you take an alpha out". Aten taunted. Adin gave Aten a wild look. "Do you know who I am? The only aura master here, damn it! I'll take the alpha out once one of you kill a beta".
"Just kill one? That's easy". Amara said.
"I'd like to see the two of you-"
Aten and Amara jumped out of the bushes and sprinted towards the herd. Amara and Aten ran side by side, with the wind blowing their hair backwards.
At the same time, the both of them put aura around their fist and shot a powerful blast. Killing three betas.
"Adin, we did it!" Amara screamed.
"You damn idiots! Get out of way before the alpha-"
Aten looked up to see a giant shadow. He quickly grabbed Arama and flew out of the way.
"You idiots! A alpha can destroy an entire planet if it wanted! Go high and wait for me". Adin ordered.
Arama grabbed the head of a beta and flew to outer space with Aten. Adin flew around the alpha. The planet cracked and lava spat out.
(It's getting hot. The planet is gonna explode. I'll have to kill it in a single shot!) he thought, as he flew to space.
"Diamon beam".
A shining beam of light shot at the planet and abliterated it in an instant. The rubble from the planet floated around in space.
Aten and Arama played around and jumped from piece to piece. "Well, that's was easy". Aten laughed.
"Easy? You kids don't know a thing. Let's get out of this universe. I hate the smell of these things".
"We going home?" Arama cried out. Adin rolled his eyes. "Of course. All you two have to do is win a universe clash battle. After that…you'll probably get to have the powers".
******
In an unknown area. The three flew throughout everything. "This view never gets old". Aten said. Millions of universes where hovering all around them. In the middle was a golden light.
"Welcome home". Adin whispered.
Arama sped up and flew around in a maniac state. "I love it up here! I've always wanted…uhh…what are those things called?"
"Explosions?" Aten answered.
"No, no. Like…nice lights just…going boom!" Arama laughed.
Adin grabbed the two. He moved so fast through space, that they all seemed to have teleported.
"Remember, that was the paradox". Adin reminded. "The thing that created all. Everything existing is because of our gods. The paradox was here before the gods. It was created by the one. Don't forget that. Without the one…nothing would exist". Adin explained.
******
The three landed on bright golden planet. A crates was made from impact. Adin dusted himself off and cleared his throat.
Far away was a kingdom. "Home". Arama sighed.
******
They walked through the gates. Technology like no other was seen and being used. "About time you losers came". A young man taunted.
"Welp, I'm gonna go! Bye Aten. Have fun with your DICK OF A BROTHER!!"
Adin had disappeared aswell. Aten's brother was a tall young man with huge shoulders, legs, and a powerful looking chest. Nothing about him was small.
"What do you want, Azzoro?"
"Eh, nothing much".
"Are you sure? Because I'm gonna walk away-"
"Being that I'm about to take on a univers clash battle…I want you to be there. I'll be one step away from becoming a warrior for the gods. Then…I can claim the tenth and last god title".
"You won't. I'll be the one to claim that spot".
"Is that so? You are just like father, little brother. But I'm for real. I want you to come. It'll…be interesting". Azzoro yawned.
"I'll be there. Have to turn this damn head in".
*****
Aten walked outside the kingdom and took a deep breath. "How far is the warriors temple again? A light year or something?"
Aten jumped as hard as he could and traveled to his destination. As he flew through the open universes, he could see a temple the size of a planet.
"Hey Aten!" A dark being yelled. Aten turned to meet his gaze with a beautiful woman. She had dark glowing skin, long black hair, and a long white dress.
"How's it going, Lithra?"
"Oh, it's going. You…look amazing. How's your brother? Family?"
"My brother is fine. Still a jerk…but that'll change. Is…your father home? I know he's the ruler of this side of the paradox, but u wanted to know-"
"You actually killed a beta?" Lithra said in a supersized tone. Aten rolled his eyes. "Take a look". Aten pulled out the creature and held it out for Lithra to grab. She made a nasty face and snapped her fingers. The head disappeared.
"It's at the temple".
"You sure?"
"Yes, I'm sure. You don't trust me?"
"Yeah. I trust everyone that I'm close with".
Lithra put her hand on her chin. Aten couldn't help but notice how smooth and untouched her skin was. Almost pure.
"You wanna see something?"
"Whatever you want to show me I don't have time. My brother's fight is soon".
"Oh, it won't take long. You…promise not to tell?"
"Yeah…I promise".
Lithra quickly flew over and turned around for Aten. "Grab my back".
"Wait, what?!"
"Grab my shoulders, Aten!"
Aten grabbed on. "How far?"
"Opposite side of the paradox. Around…a few billion light years or more".
"HUH?!"
Aten and Lithra were lifted by an unknown light and traveled at incredible speeds across the paradox.
Aten was thrown out of her stream of light. "Woah! There's no way in hell I'm going over there. That's the dark side".
Deep in the paradox was a forbidden universe. This universe was dark and black. "This place was created ever since your father and another god clashed. Pure evil. Yuck". Aten held out his tongue.
Lithra laughed. "Yes, it's true. A lot of evil and darkness. When it comes to our people, darkness is a representation of evil. My father fought Shu. I don't know much, but they fought somewhere and two rocks collided; created the dark universe". Lithra explained.
"I don't want to be here much longer. What did you want to show?"
Lithra floated towards the dark universe. "I'm going to grant you one of my abilities. You ready?"
"Yes".
Aten's view changed. He could see everything in the universe. "Woah…you can see this? All of this?"
"Yes. It's nothing serious. Check it out. Focus on the middle of the universe. Now, head out to the right. You see that?"
"Yeah, it looks like…a planet? Oh, and life?!" Aten realized what was going on. "How's this possible? The only life in the dark universe is-"
"Exactly. Look at it now. Time moves differently here in the paradox. It'll even show you the future of some planets". Lithra explained.
Aten waited. He saw evolution, cities, people, and more. "That's insane. The planet and things on it are evolving".
"That's the thing. The Annunavie people don't creat creatures. Only we, the Akies create creatures. This means soon or sometime in the future…there will be a traitor of our race". Lithra said.
"Is that so? Maybe there's another race out there?"
"Nope. Not on our scale".
"Why show me this? You could've shown anyone else". Aten asked. Lithra lifted her eyes and let out a little laugh. "I trust you. We just have to keep our eyes open".
Aten shrugged. "Someone is gonna betray the gods and join the dark side. That's pretty wild-"
"Who are you folk?"
A deep voice asked. The voice shaked Aten from the inside. He turned his head to see a tall humanoid creature. It was pale,big black eyes, and a skinny figure.
Lithra moved Aten to the side. "Easy there. Let's all just look at the situation. We aren't in your territory". Lithra explained.
The being hissed. "You Akies are really starting to test boundaries. You two are too close to our side of the-"
"Your side? We're the ones who created you!" Lithra raised her voice. Aten grabbed Lithra. "There's no need for a battle to break out. This universe would be at risk".
The creature chuckled. "The only reason you're strong is because your mother couldn't keep her legs open".
Lithra ignored the taunts by the creature. "Let's get out of here. He'll just tell his little hive what happened".
"I'm going to tell our king and queen. Don't get so cocky. Just because you're a demigod, doesn't mean you're invincible".
"You're absolutely right. I'm only strong because of my father and mother. That strength is why allows me to run over cowards like you". Lithra said with a smile. "Now, if you'll excuse us…we'll be going now".
"I'll let our king and Queen know about this". The creature growled.
"And I'll let our ten gods know about it". Lithra said with an intense glare.
*****
Lithra and Aten managed to make it back home. It was only a matter of time before his brother's fight.
Aten ran into Adin. "You seem awfully happy". Aten sat next to him. Adin was in a building. The building had lots of lights. So many, you could barley see the gold.
"My lover is pregnant". Adin said. Aten could hear his heart beginning to beat faster. "Oh, you're serious?! Where's your wife? I haven't spoken to Ama in a while". Aten turned his head and wrapped his arm around Adin. "MY MASTER IS GONNA BE A FATHER!! LETS MAKE SOME NOiSE!!"
Everyone in the surrounding area knleened to Adin and evryone started to do a chant.
"It's in our culture to love and chant our blessing to a new father. I'm glad you're having that family you've always wanted". Aten said.
The two turned around and sat down. "Thought of a name?" Aten asked.
"Yes, I have it. We decided the name: Adisa".
"Adisa?" Aten questioned.
"What's wrong with that?"
"Nothing…doesn't sound like a warrior. Not like you".
"It's not about what it sounds like. You'll know when you have one".
******
The time for Azzoro's battle begins.
******
Aten and the fellow people walked into a circle. All of the citizens surrounded the kingdom. Aten lowered his head.
"This never gets old". He whispered to himself. Aura flowed from evryone and into the kingdom.
Eveyone was teleported throughout the paradox. The entire kingdom of people where now near the middle of the paradox.
Millions of universes filled the area.
Aten and the civilians flew around and watched, as two giant beings formed. Evryone kneeled to the two giant beings.
In between them where Azzoro and a tall man. Azzoro's smooth skin shined in the darkness. "Ladies and gentlemen…we shall proceed". The being said.
The two raised their hands and snapped their fingers.
Everyone in the area was in a dream-state. (This is the never realm. The dream world. This is the only way to watch a universal battle) Aten thought, as he looked around and noticed eveyone floating around the universe and watching.
Their bodies had been teleported to their home world. Now it was time for Azzoro to fight.
The two giant beings shapeshifted to normal size. Both of them were women. One on the left had beautiful long black hair, with gold mixed in it, a white dress, and perfect red lips.
On the right was a woman with bright blue eyes,gold armor around her arms, and long black hair.
Azzoro and the man bowed to each other before flying on the opposite sides of the universe.
Azzoro untied his hair. His hair dropped to his lower back. His muscles flowed with aura. (The man's name is Ice. A skilled warrior of one of the legendary tribes of our race. Should be fun) Azzoro took a deep breath.
"Let the battle begin!"
"Let the battle begin!"
******
His eyes opened. He looked around and took a deep breath to inhale the air he so desperately needed.
Memories flashed his mind.
"Captain?! Captain?!" What's wrong?" Alayah screamed.
Jade moved her out of the way. Her eyes dropped. "Oh no. We…we have to get away!"
*****
"Jade has always been a smart one. Now that I tricked that brat….no one will stop me now. Have fun looking at my past…damn fool".
The god had put Adisa in the never realm. Once Adisa stepped through the portal with the god, the god had backed out. Right now, Adisa's soul is traveling the never realm and seeing a past.
The only way for Adisa to come back is if he finishes the vision or if someone or something breaks him. The god had put a chain on the portal, closing Adisa in for a longer period of time.
The god had control over Adisa's body. He raised his hands in the air and let out a terrifying amount of black aura.
"This isn't Adisa! I'm the cursed one! The evil one! The greatest sin of our race! I…am Aten! Bow before your king you maggots!!!" Aten yelled, as his deep voice echoed throughout the city.
Everyone felt tensed. Frost, Quintessa, the beast, Jade, and the others. Eveyone could see and feel the powerful presence coming from the building.
Aten cracked his neck. "Now…it's time for some fun".
