EPISODE 320; THE RUPTURING! KNOWLEDGEABLE HOUSE OF THE WHITE LIGER! UNSEALING THE LIMITERS OF THE INTERNAL TITANIUM CHRONO CHROME! THE FIRST BARRIER PART VIII; TEMPUS! UNLOCKING THE FIELD OF TIME!

Selene(Mitsuki), Arlene(Undine) and Helios now stood before the Gate Of Time. Before the Gate was a Tablet made out of Quartz. On the Quartz Tablet was written the Two Activation Conditions for utilizing the Gate Of Time. The First Condition stated; "The Power Of Temperance". The Second Condition stated; "Activate All Other Halls". Mitsuki touched the Tablet.

"The Conditions have been fulfilled. You can now access the Hall Of Time" the voice of her Sigil echoed within her mind as the Gate Of Time slowly parted.

The girls and Helios entered the Hall Of Time. Within it, they noticed channels leading from the Elemental Pools outside that were harvesting energy from the other Halls into another set of Halls within the Hall Of Time. Within the Hall Of Time were Seven Elemental Halls divided into Subhalls and screened behind a Forcefield. Mitsuki noticed what looked like a Control Terminal within the Hall with Conduits connecting the Terminal to the Seven Elemental Halls within the Hall Of Time and the Elemental Pools outside it. Mitsuki accessed the Terminal. On it was written the words "Amplifiers; Forces Of Growth". There was what looked like a brief tutorial which stated; "The Hall Of Time is for Elemental Synthesis and Fusion. Here you can combine the Seven Basic Elements to derive Higher Order Variations or the Reproduction Of A Base Element. The Hall Of Time is divided into Three Main Functioning Parts; one for generating elements of Growth, one for nullifying elements via Forces Of Decay(Entropy) and the Third for storing Forces Of Motion generated in the Hall Of Amplifiers(Elements Of Growth). You are currently in the Hall Of Amplifiers(Elements Of Growth)" the tutorial read.

"I see. Growth in Elemental Terms is achieved when Elemental Forces borrow Energies from other Elemental Forces leading to the Amplification or Transformation Of The Elemental Forces. This process is analogous to the process of learning in Humans and all other Forms Of Life. Usually, Temperance or the ability to restrain one's emotions comes with experience. Experience also fosters Prudence and Caution. Temperance is Self-Control thus this Hall and the Hall Of Lightning share some connection in the sense that Time shapes Experiences, Experiences shape Memory, Memory and Experience in turn can lead to Prudence and Self-Control. In Scientific Terms, experiences play a role in shaping the development of Neurones in the Human Brain" Arlene realized.

"What do I do?" Mitsuki questioned her Sigil.

"This Pool has Parameters/Variables for the Elements corresponding to the Seven Elemental Synthesis Halls and their Subdivisions. You can consider the Synthesis Process as the Functions that will be applied to the Variables. To trigger the Functions, you need to redirect Energy from the Pools into each corresponding Fusion Space in order to generate an Advanced Variation Of The Basic Elements. This is the Equation" Mitsuki's Sigil spoke within her mind.

Mitsuki accessed the Menu for Elemental Fusion and selected 'Fire'. At that moment, a list of the possible outcomes of fusing other elements with Fire materialized. Mitsuki selected 'Fire and Wind'. Almost immediately, the corresponding elements from the Pools outside the Hall Of Time flowed into the Subhall Of Fire assuming their positions as variables of Fire and Wind. Slowly, the words 'Fire and Wind' disappeared and were replaced by the word 'Storm' as a Storm began to brew within that Hall.

Next, Mitsuki selected 'Fire and Earth' within the list of possible fusions. The corresponding energies were redirected from the Elemental Pools into their assigned positions in the Subhall which was further partitioned into Three Parts. The word 'Crystal' appeared over one of the Partitions as Crystallization began to occur within that Hall. The word 'Metal' appeared over the next Partition as various Metal Ores began to form and the word 'Magma' appeared over the final Partition as Magma appeared within that Partition.

Next, Mitsuki selected 'Fire and Time'. The corresponding elements flowed to their assigned positions as Quartz Crystals appeared in the Position for Time. Ethereal Images of two Warriors engaged in Combat manifested as the words 'Fire and Time' were replaced with the word 'Speed'. The motion of the combatting Warriors was amplified and their ability to anticipate the moves of each other greatly multiplied.

Next, Mitsuki selected 'Fire, Earth and Water'. The corresponding Elements flowed into their assigned positions within the Subhall. The words 'Fire, Earth and Water' disappeared and were replaced by the word 'Vapour' as Conduction between Earth and Fire and Convection in the Water caused the Water to evaporate forming Vapour.

"Next, Mitsuki selected 'Fire and Light'. The corresponding elements flowed to their assigned positions. An Ethereal Image appeared of two Warriors engaged in battle. One of them appeared to be possessed by a Dark Force. The other shot an intense stream of Blaze towards the Possessed Warrior and the Darkness fled leaving the formerly possessed Warrior in his right state of mind. The words 'Fire and Light' disappeared and were replaced by the word 'Blaze'.

"That's the list for Fire. It's time to cycle on to Wind" Mitsuki said and accessed the menu for Wind. A list appeared showing the possible combinations of other elements with Wind. Activating the combination for 'Fire and Wind' in the Hall Of Fire also activated the combination for 'Wind and Fire' in the Hall Of Wind. A Storm was triggered in both Subhalls.

Mitsuki selected 'Wind and Earth'. The corresponding elements flowed from the Pools to their assigned positions. The words 'Wind and Earth' were replaced by the word 'Flight' as images of Birds flying through the Air manifested.

Next, Mitsuki selected 'Wind, Earth and Water'. The words were replaced by the word 'Flotation' as images of Ships sailing on the Seas manifested.

Mitsuki selected 'Wind and Time' next. The Element Of Wind flowed to its assigned position and Quartz Crystals manifested in the position for Time. The words 'Wind and Time' were replaced by the words 'Rhythm and Harmony' as beautiful Music flooded the Space.

Mitsuki next selected 'Wind and Water'. The corresponding Elements flowed to their assigned positions and the words 'Wind and Water' were replaced by the word 'Waves'. Ethereal Images of the Seven Major Kinds Of Waves manifested namely Heat Waves, Wind/Soundwaves, Magnetic Waves, Chrono Waves, Hydro/Chemical Waves, Electric Waves and Lightwaves.

Next, Mitsuki selected 'Wind and Lightning'. The corresponding elements flowed to their assigned positions. The image of a person appeared. The person was breathing steadily and the effects of their breath on their body was clearly visible. Their breath released energy within their Blood and their Brain. This amplified the activity of their entire Nervous System and strengthened their Bioelectromagnetic Aura. The words 'Wind and Lightning' disappeared and was replaced by the word 'Soul'.

Next, Mitsuki selected 'Wind and Light'. The image of a person appeared similar to the previous image. This person's breath was visible but this time, so was their Heart. The Sun was visible above this image and began its journey across the Sky. This individual moved in tune with the Sun's Celestial Journey and the beating of their Heart mirrored the Sun's own Rhythm. Their Bioelectromagnetic Auras also shifted in tune with the Sun's 'Mood'. The words 'Wind and Light' disappeared and was replaced by the word 'Spirit'.

'"We're done with Wind. Earth is next" Mitsuki said and selected the Menu for Earth. A list appeared showing the possible combinations of other elements with Earth. The Subhall for 'Earth and Fire' mirrored the corresponding fusions that had been triggered for those elements in the Hall Of Fire.

Mitsuki selected 'Earth and Wind(Sound)'. The corresponding elements flowed to their assigned positions as Vibrations flowed through the Earth in the Subhall. Gradually, images detailing the Geological Properties Of The Earth manifested. The words 'Earth and Wind(Sound) was replaced by the words 'Conceptualization of Mass'.

Mitsuki selected 'Earth and Time'. Images appeared showing the Cycle Of The Seasons as well as Growth and Decay. The word 'Earth and Time' disappeared and was replaced by the word 'Seasons'.

Mitsuki selected 'Earth(Conductors) and Lightning'. The corresponding Elements flowed to their assigned positions generating a Magnetic Field in the process. This Field attracted Magnetic Materials with the opposite Polar Orientation as that of the Magnetic Field but repelled Magnetic Materials of the same Polar Orientation with the Field. The words 'Earth(Conductors) and Lightning' was replaced by the word 'Magnetism'.

Mitsuki next selected 'Earth and Light'. The corresponding elements flowed to their assigned positions as a brilliant light began to shine over the Earth penetrating its depths and revealing the precious minerals contained within. The words 'Earth and Light' disappeared and were replaced by the words 'Conceptualization Of Mass' in similar manner as with 'Earth and Wind'.

"That's it for Earth. It's time to move on to the Element Of Time" Mitsuki stated as she selected the Menu for Time. A list appeared detailing the possible combinations. The fusions for 'Time and Fire', 'Time and Wind', and 'Time and Earth' mirrored their corresponding combinations in the previous Halls.

Mitsuki selected 'Time and Water'. The Element Of Water flowed from its Pool to its assigned Hall and Quartz Crystals manifested in the position for Time. An image appeared of the Phases Of The Moon and their effects on the Tides Of The Sea and the Mantle Of The Earth. The words 'Time and Water' disappeared and were replaced by the word 'Tide'.

Mitsuki next selected 'Time and Lightning'. The corresponding elements moved to their assigned positions and images appeared of Armies strategizing for battle. Mitsuki observed as they planned their operations and noted that the Operations of each Division in the Army was Time Sensitive and the success or failure of their Missions was highly dependent on their meeting Time Sensitive Deadlines. This echoed across various organizations. The words 'Coordination and Control' replaced the words 'Time and Lightning'.

Mitsuki next selected 'Time and Light'. The corresponding elements moved to their assigned positions and the image of Galaxies appeared. A Star in a distant Galaxy went Supernova. Its light travelled vast distances over Lightyears and was eventually visible on Earth long after the Star had perished. Next, images of Cultural Symbols and Historical Texts detailing significant past events appeared to be passed down from generation to generation by Custodians Of The Cultures and History. The word 'History' replaced the words 'Time and Light'.

"That's it for Time. Next in line is Water" Mitsuki said and selected the Menu for Water. A list appeared detailing all possible combinations of Water with other elements. The combinations 'Water and Wind' and 'Water and Time' mirrored their combinations in the previous Subhalls

Mitsuki selected the combination 'Water and Lightning'. The corresponding elements moved to their assigned positions and in the Subhall Of Water, Lightning struck a body of Water moving in all directions instead of just one in the process. The words 'Water and Lightning' were replaced by the word 'Omnidirectional Conductivity'.

Mitsuki next selected the combination 'Water and Light'. The corresponding elements moved to their assigned positions as Light illuminated a body of Water revealing its depths to be shallower than it actually was. The word 'Refraction' replaced the word 'Water and Light'.

"We're done with Water. Next is Lightning" Mitsuki said and selected the menu for Lightning. A list appeared detailing the possible combinations for the Lightning Element. The combinations 'Lightning and Wind', 'Lightning and Earth', 'Lightning and Time' and 'Lightning and Water mirrored their combinations in the previous Halls.

Mitsuki selected the combination 'Lightning, Magnetism and Light'. The corresponding Elements moved into their assigned positions with Magnetism triggered by the 'Base Elements Of Lightning and Earth'. This triggered the activation of an Electromagnetic Field as the words 'Lightning, Magnetism and Light' were replaced by the words 'Electromagnetism'.

"That's it for the Hall Of Lightning. Next is the Hall Of Light" Mitsuki said and accessed the Menu for Light. A list appeared that showed the possible combinations of Light with other Elements. The combinations 'Light and Fire', 'Light and Wind', Light and Earth', 'Light and Time', 'Light and Water' and 'Light, Lightning and Magnetism' mirrored their combinations in the previous Halls.

Mitsuki selected the combination 'Light, Wind(Sound), Lightning and Time'. Various moving images appeared within the Subhall as the corresponding elements moved to their assigned positions. The word 'Animation' appeared over this Subhall.

Mitsuki looped the production of the Higher Order Elements as she had done for the Base Elements thus extending the Range Of Energy Harvesting.

"Now we need to move to the Hall Of Nullifiers" Mitsuki said as she and Arlene headed for a Gate that led to the Hall Of Nullifiers.

Within the Hall Of Nullifiers was another Control Terminal. Within this Terminal was written the words "Nullifiers; Forces Of Decay/Entropy". There was a brief tutorial within this Terminal as well which stated;

"Here, you can nullify an Element with its Counterpart".

Mitsuki accessed the Terminal and a list of the Elements appeared. Within this Hall, Mitsuki noticed Seven Subhalls as well. Each Subhall had its Element in its active state but the Subhall for the Nullifying Element was empty. Mitsuki selected the Menu for Fire. A notification appeared that stated;

"Nullify Fire with Water". Mitsuki selected this notification triggering its associated function. Water flowed into the Subhall Of Fire quenching the Fire within it.

Next, Mitsuki selected the Menu for Wind.

"Nullify Wind with Earth" a notification appeared. Mitsuki triggered its function and the Conduits for Wind were shut stopping the flow of Air.

Next, Mitsuki selected Earth.

"Nullify Earth with Wind or Water" a notification appeared. Mitsuki triggered its function and Water and Wind flowed into the Hall Of Earth eroding the Earth. Where there was Metal, the Wind and Water caused it to rust degrading the integrity of the Metal.

Next, Mitsuki accessed the Menu for Time. Within the Subhall Of Time there was constant motion.

"Nullify Time with Time" a notification popped up. Mitsuki triggered its function and all motion ceased.

Next, Mitsuki selected the menu for Water.

"Nullify Water with Lightning" a notification popped up.

Mitsuki accessed its function. Lightning flowed into the Subhall Of Water transforming the Water into a Conduit for Lightning.

Next Mitsuki selected the Menu for Lightning.

"Nullify Lightning with Earth(Insulators)" a notification popped up.

Mitsuki triggered its function. Insulators were introduced into the Hall Of Lightning impeding its flow by raising resistance. This eventually triggered combustion and deterioration of the insulators and greatly reduced the range of the Lightning.

Finally Mitsuki accessed the Menu for Light.

"Nullify Darkness with Light" a notification popped up.

Mitsuki accessed its function. Light was introduced into a Dark Subhall illuminating it and driving away the Darkness.

"Now it's time to move on to the Hall Of Motion" Mitsuki instructed.

The girls and Helios moved on to a third Hall. Within this Hall, some of the Products of the Reactions in the Hall Of Amplifiers were reproduced, specifically those that triggered or affected Motion;

For Fire; Storm and Speed.

For Wind; Storm, Flight, Conceptualization Of Mass, Rhythm and Harmony, Waves, Soul, Spirit and Flotation.

For Earth; Flotation, Flight, Seasons, Conceptualization Of Mass and Magnetism.

For Time; Speed, Rhythm and Harmony, Seasons, Tides, Coordination and Control and History.

For Water; Waves, Tides, Omnidirectional Conductivity and Refraction.

For Lightning; Soul, Coordination and Control, Omnidirectional Conductivity, Magnetism and Electromagnetism.

For Light; Blaze, Spirit, Conceptualization Of Mass, History, Refraction, Electromagnetism and Animation.

Forces like Storm, Seasons, Tides, Waves and Electromagnetism affected Weather and Climate.

Forces like Speed, Flight, Rhythm, Harmony, Soul, Spirit, Flotation, Magnetism, Coordination and Control, Conceptualization Of Mass and Refraction affected not only the Physical Movement but also the Creative Movement Of Mankind.

Forces like Blaze, Soul, Spirit, History, Harmony, Waves, Tides, Magnetism and the Conceptualization Of Mass affected Humanity not just on a Physical Level but also on a Psychological, Emotional and Spiritual Level.

Finally, the First Barrier to unlocking the Full Potential Of The Internal Titanium Chrono Chrome had been overcome.
