Chapter 181 Time Raptor

With his curiosity quenched Ragnar got to work. Using his power over time perfectly with his Nightwater he searched for any sign of time being manipulated and found it quickly. Even if he couldn't search the seventh dimension, he could search for them in the sixth. As many younger Time Raptors were born sixth dimensional.

With a quick use of his powers he reached the Time Raptrors. Some could call them Time Vermin, but it wouldn't be the appropriate term. Because unlike Sun Dinosaurs, Time Raptors decide when their little helpers are made.

A young Time Raptor was playing with its friends when Ragnar appeared next to it. It jumped in fear and traveled through time away from the scary man. Ragnar sighed and turned his attention to its friend.

"Where is your parents little one, I wish to speak to it!"

"Sir, do you mean the Alpha, or the care givers who birthed and nourished me from young age?" The young Time Raptor asked. In its hand was a bright orb. Ragnar could feel the kids strength surpassing his and didn't wish to fight it. So for good will he raised his arms in the air, to signal his harmlessness, even if it didn't change anything.

"I don't wish any harm and either one is okey! I simply wish to talk with them. The last survivors!" Ragnar told the young child.

"Hmm, I'll have you know, that these so called last survivors are more then a billion!" She said, before continuing. "And for the record I'm older then you, so stop thinking I'm a kid. I'll see what I can do young child, see you!" It said and disappeared. Leaving Ragnar alone, waiting for any sign of return. The bad thing with being part of time, if someone stops time and stuff, it still moves fir you. So if they appear within the time they left, he would still have waited for the time they took. So Ragnar has to live with waiting.

With a pop, the kid that ran on him appeared again.

"I've been sent to accompany you until the elders decide what to do with you!" It said, reaching out its hand to greet Ragnar,

Ragnar shock its hands firmly and said. "What's your name?"

"I have no name, our naming ceremony is held when we reach the seventh dimension. Kind of like your old age humans coming of age. Its an ancient tradition we've had since the beginning." It said. A smile was visible as it talked about the ceremony of names.

"When was the beginning exactly?" Ragnar asked, since he's trapped here for the moment, he might as well learn some new stuff.

"Well the beginning is the first Time Raptor! Did you know, time doesn't have a single child, unlike most beliefs. Instead it choses beings inside of existence and makes time inside time instead. The first Alpha was such a being. Before you ask, no it isn't dead and no its not with us. You see, long ago it accepted being an eternal servant of Time itself. There are two ways to be a servant, one being a clone of the infinity, like all of existence servants. Instead of being chosen, he sends out his clones, force them to make name for themselves and done. But time has no clones and only choses his servants. I can't tell you anything about Nothingness as you lack the requirements!" The kid said.

"Then last question, then I'll answer some of yours! Why did Sun Dinosaur attack Time Raptors?" Ragnar asked.

The kid sighted and took a deep breath of emptiness before saying. "Long long ago Sun Dinosaurs asked us of a favor. They requested to know how to reach the Zerosaurs. Long have they wished to fight and kill their opposites. They've been told about these creatures they couldn't possible be a thing. How does something thats nothing classy as something in between. They couldn't understand. So they asked the first Alpha how to get to these creatures. The very creatures we treasure as our friends. The first Alpha was no fool, it knew that war would come and with it despair. So it refused to tell them and in blind rage they attacked us. Like that a long war began and the tides turned thousands of time throughout its ongoing. Until we finally had enough and just left. Some were left behind, but many more would die if we stayed. So here we are, waiting for their rage to quench, so peace once more could resume in the seventh dimension." It said taking a breather before continuing again.

"Many didn't come here, most of our kind fled to the Nothingness of the seventh dimension. The true safe place, most older Alpha went there. While the younger, bolder and more stupid came here. But it was needed, the youngest must grow up in the sixth dimension, for the best experience. So they send some here from time to time. I'm one of those!" It said and stepped back.

Next to us an older, more mature Time Raptor appeared. Unlike the kid, it had no facial features and lacked anything in particular.

"Mam before we go I have a question." Ragnar said to it and it smiled at him and said.

"Well, go ahead, though I'd like to know why you have no facial features and how stuff works."

"Very well, you've been told we inherit the none Time Raptor part of ourselves looks. Well that means that whatever race our Alpha was, we will look like. Mine was a shapeshifter and was well known. In the war it was hunted down, but we still spread his heritage and will never stop. Does that answer your question my friend?" It answered, not mentioning Ragnar putting a gender on it.

"Thank you, so kid want any answers from me. Maybe I can tell you something." With my questions the kids eyes gleamed and it asked.

"How is it like being the original timeline? Only through you does time truly move and set the events in motion. I can only dream of such powers!"

"I'm the what?!" Ragnar yelled in shock, making the kid flinch. "Oh, I thought you knew, since you sought us out and everything. My bad!" The kid said and ran for its life.

"Don't think we won't find you young one!" The faceless older Time Raptor told the fleeing kid, making Ragnar shiver.

"You know what they say, curiosity killed the cat!" Ragnar said and started whistling

"Enough of that, Cronus told us you'd be coming here!" It said and Ragnar turned to it.

"You know Cronus?" Ragnar asked.

"Yes of course, he's a servant of Time!"

"What?!" Ragnar yelled at the top of his lungs. Getting to know what a servant of Time meant just some seconds ago.

"He hasn't told you has he?" It asked and Ragnar nodded.

With a leap of faith it started running while screaming. "Kid, wait for me, I'm coming with you!"

As Ragnar watched this comical sight, another Time Raptor appeared next to him.

"Shall we get going then Original Timeline?" It asked Ragnar nodded and grabbed its outstretched hand. Unlike the other Time Raptor this one was a human thingy. Something to behold in Ragnar's opinion. He had only ever seen the human versions of Time Raptors dying.

"Let's meet the others than!" Ragnar said. He was happy. So far they hadn't tried to kill him for having Sun Dinosaur blood.

"I can sense your relief and worry young one. We Time Raptors carry no resent or anger towards the Sun Dinosaur, despite their actions against us. We aren't as foolish as some of them are! Plus there are good Sun Dinosaur like Nyx, soul and System, all who has helped you get to where you are! Soul who did things I'm not allowed to tell you. Nyx who trained you and System who gave you a system and fused it with your soul. Technically making it part of you, giving you a second worth of its progress. There are many others who I would trust my life too, even if they are foolish beyond foolish. Paarthadox being one of these beings." It said, but Ragnar interrupted it.

"What did Paarthadox do that was so foolish?" He asked, curious of his friends imperfections.

"He made a deal with Time. A foolish deal that did something unforgivable. Because of his actions your life is a mess and everything that was supposed to happened changed. Though that was what made you. So without him you and your friends wouldn't have come to be. So you should be thankful. Now onto the next note. Be ready to meet the elders and then the Alphas of different species. Depending on how it goes. Now of you go!" It told him and puff.

He appeared in front of an hour glass. Around it was several figures. All lacked facial details, meaning he would most likely not meet an Alpha here. As their Alpha bitt the dust long ago.

"Name, Ragnar, race human, Time Raptor, Sun Dinosaur and former Sun Vermin. Seems to have been erased. Did you beat up yourself and kill the outsider in your soul? I'm impressed young one and with no help from Cronus, who you now know is a servant of Time. But before you ask, no he doesn't help you because of that. Not even we know why he is so keen on making you safe. When excused, you may ask him!" One said, then another spoke up.

"Hidden agendas, wishing for help to fight agains Sun Dinosaur! Request denied. Onto the next one. Silent hope to know more about your race and yourself. Request approved. Onto the next one. Wanting to meet an Alpha in the Nothingness of the seventh dimension. Pass for now, depending on the end of our session, decision will be made. Onto the next one. Wanting to know all that's been hidden from you. Request somewhat approved, all that has to do with us shall be told!" It said, then another spoke.

"Young boy, you may speak your mind!"

Ragnar turned to the one who finally let him speak. He took a deep breath before saying. "What should I do? Should I bring justice to our people and go to war or should I stay silent, hide like the rest of you?" Ragnar asked. He wished vengeance on Trickster the most, but he still wanted the others throat to!

"Young boy, war is a strong word, especially in the seventh dimension. Don't fight for vengeance like you wish, don't kill for revenge. It will lead you down a dark path and maybe one day you will become a copy of your father. No, instead fight for peace. Fight so you can see those weaker then you smile, while you carry the weight of death and war on your tired shoulders. That is what you need to do!"

"I see, thank you. But I must take revenge for all my friends who died. Please don't take that away from me!" Ragnar begged. He didn't wish to forget. To forgive the evil Trickster and its pitiful followers had committed. He would kill every single one of them and torture Trickster for all eternity. He just hadn't worked out the details of the plan yet.

"Dear Ragnar, you are mistaken. We won't stop you or take any opportunity from you. Only you, young Original timeline can decide your fate!" One of them said and pointed at Ragnar with a finger formed from its shapeless body.

"That's all I ask, now please decide what I'm worthy of and what not!" Ragnar said.
