2024-10-29 19:42:56Mina sat the controls for the Avenger as she watched the recording of Demonya and Carmen's private conversation. Not many people in the Syndicate knew how to hack a triple firewalled sever and access any camera anywhere on the Oasis. Mina just happened to have years of experience doing it. She knew just how to hack into any sever, computer and security system with ease. She had been looking into a lot of what Carmen had asked of her earlier. As it turned out, Carmen was the wife of a Major in the Federation military. His name wasn't in the files that she had found due to the fact that she couldn't view everything. The files that she had pulled up were encrypted and so far, the decryption process only showed his rank and last name. It proved that Carmen indeed was Alicia Alexander and had currently been married for three years. That meant that Carmen was twenty-one years old, which meant that her daughter was seven years old.
The name of her daughter was also unk

Dawn of the Gatekeepers The Funeral
Carmen stood in a large crowd of people who were waiting to get inside the command center to attend her funeral. She had been waiting in line for over an hour and was getting highly impatient. She had gone to extreme measures to conceal her true identity. She wore leather pants, a white blouse and a leather jacket with a hood attached. She wasn't sure who she was hiding from being she still had no idea what her husband and daughter looked like. Carmen figured that her daughter probably looked like her so it wouldn't be too hard to spot her. Her husband on the other hand, it would probably be more difficult to spot him."Remember the man from your dream Alicia."Carmen heard the voice and closed her eyes and pictured the man in her dream at her wedding. Brown skinned, muscular, deep reserved voice and that smile. She couldn't get his smile out of her mind. If the man from her dream was indeed her husband than she could see why she had fallen
Dawn of the Gatekeepers The Truth
2459 January 22, Zebulon.She woke up to the smell of eggs, pancakes and toast. She looked around at the beautifully decorated master bedroom and wondered how she got there. It felt like she had been asleep for a long time. As she began to think about it she didn't even remember going to sleep. She listened to the sounds of a news broadcast and heard a female's voice coming from another room. She got out the bed and went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror at herself. She gasped in awe at her reflection. Her weight had changed, her hair was a shiny black and her eyes were blue instead the color she had remembered them being. As she stood there, she tried to communicate with the voice that had been stuck in her head for months. The voice didn't respond and it made her feel awkward.Just what in the hell was going on? The last thing she could remember was being at her funeral and then everything
Dawn of the Gatekeepers Interlude: A Realm Beyond
Galaxia Prime, Within Paradea......a Region of the First Realm.She stood at the edge of the platform, before her was the vast complexity known to most as the universe of men. For a moment, she felt envious of mankind, sometimes she didn't feel like being a Celestial and residing within a dimension that humans could only see if she allowed them to. There was a time before she became a goddess that she did walk among men and aid in restoring peace. But those days had come and gone long ago. She'd cut herself off from thee never ending struggle to ultimately end evil and bring peace. To her understanding true peace within the realm hadn't been seen for over a thousand eons. She had never seen peace; everyone she had once known who stood for peace were gone.So Viennashal Iminz, Goddess of the second kingdom stood and stared at the universe. She watched billions of humans live out their existe
Dawn of the Gatekeepers A Message from the Past to the Future
2459 January 22 Earth Prime, Within the Terra System.“I always hated the concept of fate. The concept that no matter what we do in life a pre-ordained destiny is awaiting us all. And in this case, it was the destruction of the society I was once a part of. In the beginning, I didn't think it would ever get this far. That so many of us would be killed because of one man's vision. A vision of a perfect world that could never be. A world that would be built upon the backs of those who sought to preserve freedom and justice. A world where evil would be the governing force and those who were like me would be nothing but a memory.”“Myself and those who I called my brothers and sisters fought to keep that vision from becoming a reality. Then there were those who rose up against us because they believed in that vision. Many lives were lost on both sides as we w
Dawn of the Gatekeepers The Middle Ground
It was now lunch and she had been sitting in the cafeteria while Livy and their best friend Lydia were talking about something, whatever it was Helena didn't think it was very important. This was that time of the day where she would shut off her brain and just lose herself in the sea voices and concentrate on nothing and everything all at once. It didn't make sense to her when she thought about it but she did it anyways because it was the only way she was able to get through lunch. The food was horrible and her friends didn't talk about anything interesting. So, she would get lost in her thoughts, but today something was different. Whenever she closed her eyes, she swore she was seeing the world from the perspective of something or someone else. It was weird, because whatever she was seeing was through the eyes of someone in the school. It looked like a hallway, possibly the southwest portion of the school."If you stay quiet over there any longer, I'm going to
Dawn of the Gatekeepers An Ally From Beyond
Once school was over Helena took the bus to the park and sat on the bleachers by the football field. After lunch went to the library and started to looked up different things such as dimensional travel and alternate universes. Until today she thought that these sorts of things only existed in comic books and movies, to find out that they are real still had her mind plagued with questions. She looked up and saw her sister and her best friends walking towards her."What took you guys so long?"Chelsea looked at Livy who looked Lydia like whatever the explanation was it was hers to give."I.....think I may have figured out what I can do." She said rather nervously.They all waited for her to continue as she took out her hand and within moments a flame began to emanate from her palm."I was in gym when it happened. One second I'm running laps with everyone the next I kn
Dawn of the Gatekeepers An Unexpected Visitor
She stepped out of the shuttle along with Commander Fox and his guards. The ride to the base was a quiet one which came as a surprise. Fox was always talkative with her about things that were going on, even though she'd been on desk duty for the past six months she was still a leading agent and had quite a bit of clout with the higher ups in the agency. Crazy thing was she didn't have to do desk duty if she didn't want to. All she had to do was say the right thing to the right person an she would've been given an assignment, but she didn't know if she was ready yet so desk duty was her life. They walked down the long corridors as conference rooms showed personnel in rushing about. The hustle an flow of the Intergalactic Intelligence Agency was something only certain people could get used to. Alicia knew she wasn't like most people, hence why she could work at the agency.It had taken them some time but after a long elevator ride to the seventy-fifth floor they h
Dawn of the Gatekeepers Between Timelines & Realms
She gasped for a moment as she made an attempt to lift herself off the ground. At first glance the alley way she was in looked familiar but as she looked around for the soldiers, she had been fighting everything started to seem strange. It was almost as if someone had taken the world she once knew and replaced it with an alternate version. Although, if that were the case then why was she in the alley way she had been in before? Secondly, how in the hell did she get beaten by eight Syndicate thugs to the point she was on the ground. Her thoughts brought her to only one conclusion and it gave her the chills as she realized that it was the only possibility.She was forced into a parallel timeline by someone and the culprit took whoever they were after and replaced them with her. Problem was who was the target and why? As far as she knew the only beings capable of opening time breaches in her timeline had either been killed or imprisoned. The rules for opening breac

One Week Later......Cassandra stood anxiously in the center of Urlecit's private meeting chambers. She had been called here by the God himself for reasons not disclosed to her. In her mind she had been trying to figure out what his reasons for calling her here could've been. Her mother told her that the Gods were very wary of any offspring of the Goddesses, especially if they couldn't be controlled by them in some way.Though she didn't feel like this was a meeting about herself, it was most certainly about Alicia. She knew that her cousin was a sought-after prize that Urlecit wanted. What caused Cassandra a great amount of confusion was why? Why did the Gods fear Alicia so much that they chose to test her prowess and force an ultimatum upon her that was beyond unfair? She herself had abilities like many Celestials within Paradea, yet only Alicia was being tested to prove herself worthy.Cassandra worri
Dawn of the Gatekeepers The Forbidden Part II
Alicia glanced around her and saw that everything around her had turned completely black, as if someone had removed the environment and replaced it with a blank canvas. Fear gripped her insides as she was unsure of what she was supposed to do. Moments later she started to her loud explosions all around her but couldn't see where they were coming from. As the explosions grew closer and louder, she noticed that above her was a bridge. Rubble and debris had begun to appear everywhere as she walked further into what she assumed was the future.As if on cue several figures appeared crouched next to a pile of rubble underneath the bridge. She walked over to them and quickly recognized them from her vision. Her eyes scanned each of them and noticed that two of them were missing, Cassandra and the woman she had been fighting alongside were absent. This sent Alicia's mind into a frenzy of questions that all led to one conclusion. Cassandra'
Dawn of the Gatekeepers The Forbidden
Alicia briefly looked back at the red veil and found that it was no longer there. The surprise she began to feel quickly turned to anxiousness as she walked through the thick fog that swirled around her. Her eyes darted in all directions as she attempted to get an idea of her surroundings, but nothing but fog was visible. As she walked forward a bright light began to shine through the fog, she decided to go to it. The closer she got to it voices started echoing around her. Her heart jumped into her chest she heard a voice behind her call her name. Alicia turned around to see a shadowy projection of herself. She looked the same, but this version of her looked somewhat tormented."What are you?" she asked.The projection looked up at her with a look of grief. "You shouldn't be here. Why have you come?"Alicia shook her head. "I need to find out what happens in the future. This was the only way.""You d
Dawn of the Gatekeepers Start of a Journey
Cassandra stood still next to Alicia who had her head bowed and eyes closed. She wasn't sure what had gotten into her cousin, Alicia didn't normally frequent taking journeys into the Third Realm and go to the heart of darkness. Even though Cassandra had been tasked with seeking out this dark presence she had felt before leaving Galaxia, she didn't think that Alicia would be so quick to follow after her. Although her cousin hadn't been the same since she had spoken about the dream or as she called it 'vision'. Cassandra knew her cousin well enough to know that she was afraid. What caused her mind to ache was that she couldn't figure out what Alicia was so shaken and terrified over. She had the powers of a Goddess yet she allowed images within a dream affect her judgement. Her pondering came to a halt as Alicia suddenly stepped forward and faced the Guardian."Are you prepared to enter beyond the Veil of Time and Shadows?" the Guardian asked in his gho
Dawn of the Gatekeepers The Dream
Alicia awoke suddenly, drenched in sweat. Her mind stumbled over multiple thoughts as she tried to make sense of the dream she had. Could what she has seen truly been the future? Her mother said once that sometimes the power of the Five had a mind and will of its own, she had told her how that same power would find beings that were capable of executing the will of the Realm's. A part of her wanted nothing more but to go back to sleep and forget about the dream altogether. But she knew deep down, the dream was real, the people who fought alongside her were all real. Those creatures were real as well, it was only a matter of time until events within the realm would start to echo the event she just witnessed.Looking across her room to the arch way which led to the balcony, she noticed that it was daylight and Cassandra told her to meet her at the palace gate's when she awoke. She got up and grabbed her clothes and began to get dressed. She slipped on her an all-bl
Dawn of the Gatekeepers The Awakening
3 Months Later.......Explosion after explosion went off around her as she opened her eyes. Before her was the scorched plains Galaxia. Fires plagued around her as she looked away from the plains and investigated the landscape further. On either side of her were young women in dark robes and armor. Each of them stood there watching something off in the distance, she noticed Cassandra among them. It was during this moment that she realized she was having some sort of vision.As she turned to see what was in the distance. Her eyes went wide as she saw thousands of alien creatures marching towards their position. First thing she thought of was how far in the future would all this take place. Second was who did that army belong to? Alicia knew that no matter what, the Collective had armies in case a war broke out. What threw off was the appearance of these soldiers. They were unlike any Cel
Dawn of the Gatekeepers Daughter of Vienna
Alicia and Cassandra walked towards the shuttle that would take them to Seledon. Its golden paint job mixed with the beaming sun upon blinded Alicia for a moment. As she looked away from the shuttle, she saw her mother following close behind her. She wondered what words of wisdom she would bestow on her before her departure. Also, the thought of what her mother wouldn't say that she really did want to say, but always chose not to. Alicia knew her mother constantly wanted to tell her something, something that she knew always weighed upon her. Though she never did say what it was, she would only give of the slightest indication that there was something she wanted to say.She stopped walking and let Cassandra go aboard the shuttle as she felt her mother's presence directly behind her. She quickly turned around to face her catching a hint of sadness in her eyes. The decision to have her go to Seledon must've been a difficult one. Alicia didn't realize it till now ju
Dawn of the Gatekeepers The Fallout
The Goddesses had all taken their seats. They patiently waited for the Collective to enter the chamber. They would take their seats across the chamber as they always did. Viennashal sat impatiently, this was a day she had been trying to avoid, though in heart of hearts she'd known it would come. Her daughter was a secret she had kept from everyone for fourteen years. A secret that could and probably be the catalyst in breaking the civil law between the God's and the Goddesses of Paradea. Such an idea that this could become a reality filled her with pride and guilt. Guilt that she might be grooming her daughter to be fed to the wolves, yet if her plan worked, she would be the slaughtering the wolves.The chamber door opened and the God's silently took their seats. She keenly watched her husband take his seat amongst his brothers. Viennashal didn't hate the God's in fact, she respected some of them. Not all of them were considered tyrants, though after today that
Dawn of the Gatekeepers Proclamation of War
It was indeed something to behold, it stood as a testament of authority and seat of power for the Collective. The last time she had stood within its halls she was what the Goddesses of old called a new creature. A Celestial who still possessed some form of innocence and small power among beings whose prowess she wouldn't dare challenge. There had been those who did indeed try, they had either been banished or worse. She had made sure that she would never join their numbers, and rightly so. She knew that her sisters would one need her leadership and divine wisdom to one day challenge the Collective and bring justice upon them. Maybe, just maybe that day had come.Virdenasha the leader of the Council of Goddesses and Supreme Ruler of the Four Kingdoms sat in her seat within the Hall of the Ancients. Here she had aided in the governing of Paradea and led the Goddesses for many millennia. It was here only hours ago that she had learned of Viennashal Iminz and Lord A
