"Hmmm something is not just right here" Lilith paced in her room with her hand creasing her chin. She just arrived at Nerwin and was trying to settle in before it gets to dinner time that they would be called to the dinning hall for their meal.
She was done unpacking and she was sure she put everything in its right spot but she still wasn't satisfied with the look of the room. Although it wasn't big because it was just one of the institute's single room but she was sure that wasn't the problem because she found it just right and comfortable. The bed was cosy and the view from her window was the training ground, which was totally awesome because she would always stay training conscious. 'Then what was the problem?' She asked herself, with her eyes darting round the room like she would spot it with one roll, but she didn't. "Andreas l feel something is not right, but l don't know what it is" she turned to Andreas who just lay comfortably on her bed with crossed legs, not caring to know what she said as he seemed lost in his own thoughts. "Andreas!" She called again, a bit louder this time jolting him from his thoughts. "Hmm yes Lilith" she finally got his attention. "You were saying?" "What were you thinking about" she asked him with a serious face and her hands on her waist. "You were so lost". "Oh sorry about that" he quickly apologized. "I was just so engrossed with admiring the fact that this room is not stuffed with your obviously unbearable obsession with purple". On the contrary, that was far from what he was thinking about. He was actually thinking of reasonable stats he would present to his father when next he meets him which was today, the constellation day. It was the same day they became lost, many years ago by the hands of Triven rangers. Ever since then, they had been lost somewhere in the universe that even their devices and satlites couldn't detect, to help them find their way out. The existence of some of the most powerful breed of their species on Omania now was not reality, but their illusionary powers were at work to help them exist in the planet but visible to no one. He was actually surprised that Lilith was able to see him that day he finally decided to come out open to her. He had being lurking in the dark of her shadow for a very long time since she was born, just because he felt she was going to be the key to him freeing his world. From the instant she let out her first cry, he decided to be with her. However, that would not have been feasible if he had not taken it on himself to protect her mother from his father after he fufilled his aim of killing Phil her husband just because he believed that with his great potential lost, that would be a big loss for Triven and sweet revenge for him. Actually, he was right. Phil was indeed a strong and powerful ranger and he weilded four superpowers which was very rare for a ranger. They were Telekinesis, Super strength, field force and most feared of all, chaos magic. So killing him was a big loss to Triven and it was not certain that there would ever be anyone like him, not even a slightest chance. Nevertheless, he was not happy with Phil's death, but what could he say, king Radia will always be king Radia. He honestly had no reason to bother himself unnecessarily about the death of an enemy of his world, but he was with Lilith now for a greater course. Phil held great potentials and he was sure it would be same with Lilith or even more. She might be the one he has spent long years searching for, the one that can save his world, save his people. The one that could revive their core and bring back their light. Yes! She could be the one and he was not letting her off him because eventually if she turns out to be the one, then that would mean that he could finally return home proudly and earn his father’s love and the love of his people in it’s abundance. King Radia, after the fall of Gorgor sent him away on the mission to find the one with the power of light and bring him to Gorgor so as to resurrect their world. However, every year since then, on the anniversary of their defeat, he was to report his progress on this mission and also assure his competence. Now this was why he had been lost in thoughts. He had no idea of what to report this year. Every single time this time of the year draws near, he was very sure his people and his father most especially had high hopes and expectations on hearing from him and he always lets them down. He just wished things would turn out differently this year. He exhaled deeply. "It is just right and l don't see the anything wrong with it". Yes purple! That was just what the room needed. She wasn't comfortable because her favorite color had no impact on the room except for her things and she. She really had to give it a touch of purple if she wished to stay here. Yes, she will do just that but wait, did he just her love for purple unbearable! No she can't take that. "My love for purple is not unbearable, its unique. I was born with it. You can tell from my eyes and hair. I love purple and l am going to make everything about me feel and be the same, and if you think its unbearable to you then l would advise you get yourself a new room" she crossed her arms and backed him. "Oh Lilith" he stood from the bed and walked to her. "I don't mean that you loving just purple is wrong, l only think its time you tried other colors, like blue, red, indigo, orange, and yellow. Let's just stop at the prominent colors in Triven" he smiled at her. "Well that's your problem Andreas. I love purple and that's it. If you think l... "She was still speaking a bit angrily at him before she was interrupted by a knock on the door. Time froze for the two of them as they cut their argument and just wondered who knocked on the door and why the person was there. *knock knock* It came again, louder than the former. "Who is there?" She called with all her attention on the door, but there was no reply. "Well whoever you are, l think you are in the wrong room!". She said again, after getting snubbed. But that didn't stop the knock, as it persisted and the one at it had no intentions of stopping. She exchanged glances with Andreas before approaching door closely in her best defense pose in case if the person at the other side tries to launch an attack. She would have worried about weak over pampered prince Andreas, but luckily for them he couldn't be seen by anyone except her. She got to the door and opened it slowly, stepping back and been ready for anything and she indeed got some thing. A hug!She got a hug! By who? She froze for some seconds before drawing away from the hug to get a better sight of the person who hug her. "Nexine!" She called out with joy. "H... how come you are here?""Oh come on Lilith are you not happy to see me?" Nexine asked as he made his way to her bed to sit comfortably on it. "But l am" she hurried to say as she closed her door and went to sit beside him. "I am, l just wonder how you got to know my room because it has not been long l arrived". "I can't believe you just asked me that Lilith" Nexine looked at her displeased. "I am the son of grand sensei Velskud, and he is the head of of Triven's martial art's institute and all its aspiring rangers. So all l did was seek your file and and find out the room you were given and date for resumption, and here l am easy peasy" he smiled proudly, showing his perfect white teeth which really went well with his white hair, and added flash to his black eyes. Lilith looked at him with admiration. He was
"The most crime of a prince is being late to a noble counsel" king Radia raged on sighting Andreas walk through the door. "Why are you just arriving?" "I am so sorry father" he bowed to him in apology. "I take the blame for my actions and will willfully accept any punishment you wish that l suffer". "You know Andreas l have just realized that you care nothing about saving our world from this abyss, but only focus your mind and will on the useless people of Triven! You hardly spend time here with your people, nor do you search for ways with our star specialists to spot our location on the galaxy and set us free. Infact, it irritates you to help build our cosmic lumens in the reviving of our dead core. What kind of a prince are you?!" "I deeply repent of my actions father and l shall surely put my enthusiasm on bringing our world out of this void space". "Your apology changes nothing Andreas" Radia thundered again, now rising from his seat. His anger made him comb his pink mou
"You should not have sent him out like that your grace” lord Gerrant let out a sigh as he spoke in disapproval of what the king did. "He is still the prince of our world and his dignity must always be respected". "Oh please, spare us the sermon lord Gerrant" lord Varnaak definitely did not want to hear any of his words of empathy. "You saw what the prince did, he failed terribly in an ordinary task that was handed to him long years ago. I agree with the king that prince Andreas must not return to Gorgor again until he has found the mutant with the illumination ability". "But what if the prince was right. He is very powerful and strong enough to find the illuminator. His fighting skills are worth it and the range of his powers are outstanding. I sternly support prince Andreas that the mutant may not be from Triven, but from other planets in Omania. Let's be certain of our words, so as not to make rash decisions". Lord Gerrant was for sure not accepting defeat from Lord Varnaak espec
"What do l do?" She asked herself as she rubbed her face. "What have you done Lilith? You are a murderer"."No no no Nex" Lilith cried. "It was not intentionally, l didn't mean to do any of this. Please Nex you have to believe me. It is not my fault". "Oh really Lilith but you just murdered Lrya in cold blood. How could you even be capable of such. I might be your friend, but l won't conceal evil. I am reporting this straight to sensei Moran". He said with a serious face as he walked out on her. "I am so sorry Lilith". "No Nex please. Not displine sensei Moran. Please Nex don't do this to me. I might get expelled or even worst, serve a nation wide punishment. Please Nex". Lilith fell to the floor as she cried her eyes out to Nex but all her pleas fell on deaf ears as he just left her there all alone. "Oh no, no no!" She screamed into her palm out of fustration. Why was all this happening to her, why did she make the mistake of hitting Lyra. She placed her forehead on the ground i
"Ranger aspirants of Triven, gather around". It was morning and all the aspirants of the institute gathered outside to be assigned to their masters and also given their level up bracelets and start their journey to fully becoming rangers of Triven. Each sensei was assigned to 18 aspirants to train, and help them get to the next level. And by the end of every session, the best aspirants under each sensei would compete against each other for the ultimate prize of the year; grand aspirant. It was also accompanied with a huge level up, as the winner can skip two levels which is within one year, at most if he wishes to from the eight levels they have to pass through in the institute. Lilith silently prayed within her that she would get a good sensei. Someone she could understand and have a connection with. And she also wished she will not be assigned to the same sensei with Nex. She really didn't want to see his face anymore, after what happened last night. Plus in the kid rangers
"Punches! Blocks! Kicks!" Sensei Helia commanded his students as they obeyed the command accurately. They have been practicing those basic moves for two hours now and they all wondered in their minds why the sensei was making them practice the basic moves they already have at their finger tips for such a long time. "Concerntrate! Focus on the energy that revolves around you. Harden your fists! Hold your defenses, straighten and harden your kicks!" The commands kept coming from the sensei as he sat on a wooden chair he got from the cottage, hitting his cane on the ground in a definite rhythm. They continued practicing the moves till the alarm for lunch time sounded loud in the whole institute. They all were just so exhausted and didn't wait for their master to dismiss them but just left to pick their things and leave on their own. "Meditation class everyone is two hours before dinner. Do well to fill your stomachs now for it won't be nice to hear the roars of the monsters in y
Lord Varnaak was given till the next dusk of Triven to find out what the prince Andreas was hiding by king Radia. He thought of a perfect strategy to carry out the king's orders of following the prince after he had assigned him to do so. He knew very well he couldn't be seen by the people of Triven but he was sure the prince was going to sense him, one way or the other and for sure see him. So he had to do something exceptional like use one of his rare abilities, making illusions! Yes that was his strength and he was very sure it would be of great help to him now. But to be able to pull that off, he had to hatch a very effective plan so that he can outsmart the prince. He thought following him around, lurking around his own dark self so that he won't seem it strange that he saw him or sensed him wherever he went. He already knew that the prince spends his imaginary times in Omania at Triven and he was certain he mostly stayed in the ranger institute at their capital, Nerwin.
But he really hoped the prince will fall for it, and he did, leading to his now state. He had come back later after he was sure the prince had gone to Babu to carry out his father's orders as he had made him believe. He moved to the dorms immediately, searching all the rooms there for anything that could be likened to prince Andreas. He had just finished his search in the first and second dorms in his illusion as the prince. He was about to move to the third before he sensed the prince's presence there in Nerwin. 'He did even stay as long as he thought or was he the one who lost track of time?. He looked at the sun and realized it was already past mid day for Triven. Dammit* he must have spent so much time searching the other dorms. Immediately, he took the form of one of the flags there just to fool him, even though he knew he was the only one who could see him and would definitely know that something was off with the environment. But that was just to pass. As the flag, he staye
Florate just had to let the tears fall. She was right. Her quiting the match even though it was worth it would make her to repeat a the previous level. Her stats would be brought down and she would join the current level seven aspirants and train better to get to her original level although that would be when her mates must have graduated. That was the main reason why he had Lilith get him disqualified instead of just quitting. Also, she was also right with the point that none of them would want that. In as much as they wanted her to leave the match, having her become reduced by a level won't be nice at all. So she did well by bearing the pain and he was so proud of her right now. "But I did it right?" she continued. "I got a point at least, didn't I?" "Although the sensei saved the results for later. As you both were injured but left for me, I can proudly say that my girlfriend was incredible. I am so proud of you Rain" he kissed her hair again. “I am so proud that you are mine
"Nanny Adelaide!" Florate screamed, obviously perplexed about Lilith's condition. "Nanny Adelaide!" He kept calling his nanny immediately he enter the main doors of the clinic and couldn't stop yelling till he found her. She was not attending to anyone, so she was free and walked around to check how the others were doing. She was startled clearly with the way he was screaming her name but before she could ask why, she noticed he was carrying a lifeless girl in his arms. "Oh my goodness!" she gasped before running towards him immediately while he too ran to meet her. “Thelma?" she called a nurse she had been walking around with. "Yes nurse Adelaide" "Get a stretcher immediately!" At her order, the young nurse left to do as she was told. "Nanny..." Florate found it hard to explain when he got close to his nanny he was already out of breath to. "What is it Florate? Tell me! What happened to her?" "Nanny this is my friend Lilith. I don't know, I just found her like
"Hey Nex!"Nex had beaten Dodge in their match against each other. He beat him both judging from the match and judging from their stats. It was not a surprise to anyone, Nex was strong, muscled and agile. He could easily over power his opponent if the person was not very resourceful as Dodge was not. He was strong too but Nex was always a step ahead of him during the match and that granted him victory.He had just received his handshake from his most proud father, not like he (Nex) cared and was now heading back to his room before he heard some one yell his name. He turned back to see who it was and he was not surprised at all."What do you want Florate?" he asked with a relaxed and calm voice. He looked like he did not know why Florate had to stop him and also pretended they were just casual people who stopped each other on the way to say one or two things."And why would I ever want anything from you Nexine?" he retorted, returning an angry frown for the calm expression on his face
"What has every one on Omania got to do with bringing light back to Gorgor?" Lilith furrowed in confusion. "Everything Lilith. Everything. Once light is restored to Gorgor, We will be free from the abyss Triven put us in and we will finally spot our location in the galaxy and you know what that means?" She shook her head, still not comprehending what she was trying to say. "It means that the door has been made open for my father to take his revenge on all of Omania especially Triven. And trust me Lilith when I say that with the height of the rage burning within him, it would be a death sentence for you all and sweet revenge for him. So no. I won't tell you how to restore light to Gorgor, for the sake of greater good" he said sadly. "Is there no other way to relieve you of the darkness?" she asked again, not really hoping to hear something good but she had to ask. "There is no other way Lilith". "Then we shall go with the first" she blurted making him almost believe she w
"It means I might kill you if I try to go beyond the kisses. You might die Lilith". "What do you mean by that? I will die? Why?" She looked a bit scared. "Listen" he held her both hands as he spoke "I once told you that i am not really here, that l am still stuck in a star with the rest of my world". "Yes" she nodded. "But I can see and feel you". "That is only because you have me in here" he touch her head like he did the first time they met. "I am confused Andreas. If you are in my head, then why can I feel your touch, inhale your scent, hear your breaths, Just why? And why will I die if you try to touch me?" she had lots of questions going on in her head right now and she needed reasonable answers to them all. "You only have those feelings around me Lilith because you welcomed me into your head. You made my story your favorite story because you loved me. I have always felt this attraction towards you since you were born and I remained stuck in your shadow till I found th
"Is that really a necessary question Florate? Well if you must know, I am here to see my girlfriend, Rain". "Your girlfriend?" Florate was now loosing his cool. "Let me remind you Nexine incase you are having some kind of memory loss, sight loss or brain issues. That girl lying on that bed" he pointed at the bed where Rain lay "is Rain Flake, my girlfriend. So you better get yourself out of here before I make you leave myself" he clenched his fists. "Don't be ridiculous Florate" he scoffed. "We both know that Rain truly loves me and not you. She has eyes only for me. She is only with you because I allowed her to be. But now, I want her all to myself so just drop whatever moronic claim you have on her because she is mine! Isn't that right Rain love?" he touched her cheeks as he spoke which got Florate really fired up. He had purposely got himself disqualified with Lilith's help only so he could get the chance to see Rain, to be with her. But now this idiotic Nexine is here! Claimi
"What about it?" "I felt this shock when I touched it. Does it hurt?" she asked with much concern. He kissed her jaw before answering her question. "No" he said with the most sexiest voice she has ever heard. "Then why did I feel that jolt?" "I guess we should stop here" he let his hands fall from her body, placing them by his sides and waiting for her to stand from him but it did not seem like she was in any mood to. "Stop here? Why? What did the jolt mean?" she asked again. "Trust me Lilith you don't want to know" he said simply still waiting for her to get up but she wouldn't yield. She rather drew closer to him and touched it again. "Ouch!" she flung her hand. "The tension just increased. What is going on? Are you alright?" "Lilith don't push me" he said lightly as if pleading to her. "Don't push you to what Andreas? I am not scared" she widened her eyes. "Tell me what the problem is? Why is your mark electrocuting me?" "You are not ready for that yet Lilith" he
"Congratulations Lilith" Lilith was cheered by many other rangers and sensei's as she stepped down the stairs after she got a handshake from the grand sensei. “Thank you" she faked a smile. To be honest, she really did not feel good about this winning. She knew she did not deserve it, she did not even do any thing, Florate just let her win only so he could see Rain. She wondered if she was ok. She tapped her bracelet to view her stats and was indeed pleased with what she saw even though she wasn't sure how she earned them. Lilith Amnell, LEVEL 8: Responsibility: 100%, exceptional self-defense skills 96% attack skills 100% emotional mastery 78% respect 99% honor 99% discipline 100% courage 95% strength 89% empathy 100% speed 85% counter attacks 78%. However, the smile on her face changed to a frown when she remembered that Florate's stats would be drained seriously after the disqualification. 'Oh my' she slapped her face, looking sad. What was she doing here anyway, she should go
Lilith gave it a quick thought…But why would she do that. That was going to drain his stats big time, did he not care? She stood up immediately and glanced at the timer. They still had three whole minutes and two seconds till the end of the match. She looked directly into his green orbs and shook her head slightly at him. He understood what she meant immediately. She finally got his message and wasn't willing to do it. "Please" he whispered to her and with a sour face, she nodded. She really had no choice, he was begging this of her and she had to fulfill it as a good friend. She took deep breathes through her mouth before running towards him with a grievous attack, the knee kick. She raised herself from the floor with all strength in her and hit him hard on the jaw with her two knees, one after the other making him stagger backwards and almost out of the circle. He would have just stepped out but deliberately leaving the circle would get the both of them disqualified and he did
