Chapter 9 - Darkness Grows


Zane's POV:

The tunnels coming to a end...

are you sure you are prepared to face whats waiting for you..?

We've got no choice really... maybe with your help we can do this.

Maybe.....

"The tunnels ending guys.. get ready." I/we said.

We came out of the dark tunnel to a large dome-like area, the roof was high above us. There were railings circling the top area. It almost looked like an arena.

"Guys.. I don't like this. Maybe... maybe we should find the way out." Jaydon muttered staring at the large area.

"I'm agreeing with Jay on this one, this doesn't seem right." Al mumbled.

My head quickly turned to a tunnel across from us, i could hear footsteps.

"Guys someones coming!" I whisper shouted.

Out of the darkness walked a familiar face.

Zena looked at us in shock, her blue eye shrunk when laying eyes on Nick.

"W-what..?" She quietly asked.

huh... she looks good for her age..

What??

Nevermind..

"Shes not the power that was coming from here." I said.

"You shouldn't be here.." Zena said quietly, almost like she was trying not to wake someone.

"What do you mean? Your sister brought us here. I thought of all people you would be in on our arrival." Nick snapped, Zena flinched at his tone.

"I knew eventually you'd have to come here but i didn't think- wait my sister?!" Her voice raised at the end, she quickly covered her mouth. Her eyes narrowed.

"What did she do?!...." She mumbled.

"What's happening?" Al asked.

"You have to leave now. Go. Now." Zena ordered her voice firm.

I feel we should listen, she always has been the smart one.

She looked at us but her eye stopped on my glowing one. She froze, eye widening.

"Hadi?" She asked, her voice was small.. almost child-like.

Hadi?.. Is that..? You....?

She looked at the floor, almost looking sad..? In a way..

"You don't remember.... You don't even know you name.." She mumbled.

My name..

"Wait, they have names?!" Carter exclaimed. "They said that they were lost to time."

"Lost to them maybe but... not to others.." She said.

"You know their names?" Jaydon asked.

She nodded. She walked over to Al.

"Cynthia."

Then Jaydon.

"Dane."

Blake.

"Alban."

Finn.

"Nevan."

Nick.

"Koutei."

Carter.

"Shen."

Me

"Hadi."

And Hunter.

"Zaniel."

Her eye looked far away, like she was reliving a memory.

I-I don't...

Cold. The cold feeling returned, and Zena looked terrified. But it was to late. The room seemed to get even darker, dark blue mist came out from another tunnel. I could hear the footsteps, there were two people walking. A boy who looked almost exactly like Zena came out, the only different was his bright purple hair and eyes, he had matching markings on his arm like Zenas. He looked at us and smirked, his gaze turned to Zena and he frowned.

The second male slowly stepped out of the mist, he looked young yet I could sense he was very old. His dark blue almost black hair looked like it held a galaxy in it, his eyes were the same. They were bright blue but they had a galaxy look in them, his skin was a sickly white and he had bags under his eyes. He wore dark blue clothing, but he had a blue amulet coming from his chest. He smirked at us.

"Welcome."

Still Zane's POV:

His voice echoed in the large room, his voice was deep and kind of scratchy. His was about as tall as Blake (and Blake was already towering over us.) but he was still young, he almost looked our age.

We n-need to l-leave.... Zane?...

" So this is the new first gen..... Still not impressed." He spoke almost like he knew us.

Zane w-we need t-to leave!

His eyes gazed over us but stopped on me.

"getting a little help from your elders I see..... could of sworn they were dead." He said eyeing me.

"W-who are you?.." Al asked stepping forward taking his gaze from me to her.

"Ah the young power holder, beautiful little girl..... The who I will answer later." He said looking Al up and down, Blake was quick to pull her behind him.

"To be completely honest your whole generation is pretty pathetic, some of you-" He looked at me. "Can't even perform basic sensing magic, I couldn't have made it more clear. But your had to go crying to Hadi for help, poor guy... He probably wants you to leave.... Correct?"

I stood completely still, but gave a small nod.

"Just as i thought, you've all used them as a way to cheat the system haven't you?" He asked.

"No." Blake voice rang out. "Only Al, Jaydon, Carter, Nick and Zane have been able to."

"Oh... Interesting.." He whispered.

W-wait a second.... I'm starting to remember...

His eyes fell on Hunter, A small smile appeared on his face.

"I remember your counterpart, Zaniel.... I could probably consider him a friend.." He said still smiling.

W-wait... Zaniel.... Oh no....

"I think I'll honour his last request..." He smiled.

STOP HIM NOW!!!

I unfroze and shot a blast of green magic at him. Everyone looked at me like i was crazy.

"W-what are you doing?.." Carter asked.

"I-I'm not sure but Hadi started to panic and told me I had to stop him." I said, my voices both shaky.

"But did you get him-" Al was cut off by a blast, it shook the room.

"That was a mistake, dear Hadi."

He stuck his hand out, he blasted the floor. Blue magic ran through the floor snaking its way towards us. It seemed to grab us, we couldn't move. But a burning sensation came over me, I let out a scream.

"W-what's happening?! What are you doing to him?!" Al screamed, I couldn't see her face my vision was getting blurry.

Z-zane...... hold on..... please...

"I'm ripping Hadi out of his body, it may hurt considering Zane let him in his body and does not want to let him go." He replyed slyly.

My hair messaly covered my face, my breathing was shaky and short.

Z-zane don't give up...

"It doesn't really matter if he gives up or not... He's not the problem."

I mustered up enough strength to look up just in time to see him walking towards Hunter. He placed his finger on Hunters forehead, Hunter let out a scream of pure pain.

The other screamed in protest, I tried to say something... anything...... but nothing came out.

N-no n-not again....

hunter...

I'm sorry...
