3.- The Departure of an Ally

The next morning 4 woke up a little later than usual, since the previous day's mission had left him exhausted, and his arm hurt a lot because of the bullet. As usual he woke up Beeg and Eggdog, to go down to the dining room for breakfast. They then went to the training area, but for some strange reason, General Rainstore was not there.

- Hello SMG4! - exclaimed Sori (A cadet in training).

- Hello Sori, and The General Rainstore? -.

- He went out on a mission, he won't be back until 11pm -.

- On a mission? - asked 4, somewhat surprised.

In general only They called the Senior Suns, like General Rainstore, (that is, very experienced or very high-ranking people) only when they were very dangerous missions.

- And...the Lord of theShadows appeared near base number 2 and let's remember that that is where they do the experiments, which is why they sent the Major Suns in emergency -.

The blue-eyed man only remained silent, but not only because he understood the situation, but also because the Lord of Shadows was a very powerful entity, who had managed to eliminate the Luceros (A group of people who were intermediate, since they did not support the Suns, but they did not support the Villains either) and the Normals (Another group, which was dedicated to selling information to the opposing side). That man was said to be terrible, so he hoped that they were lucky.

The rest of the day passed as usual, until suddenly, at 8:14pm, they started listening to horns,like an alarm. When they looked out to see, they saw that one of the Greater Suns was coming, but it was completely massacred and it was even noticeable that it had just lost one of its eyes.

Once they had taken him to the infirmary, they began to give him treatment to help him heal quickly. Everyone was worried and wondering what had happened to him and the other Senior Suns. But above all,4 had One question: Where was General Rainstore?

- This is where the Sun SMG4 lives? - he asked with a very dull voice.

At that moment, the other Suns moved aside and let the blue-eyed man pass, while everyone looked at them with surprised faces.

- It's me sir... - SMG4 responded.

- That... ¿You were Nicolás Rainstore's pupil, right...? -.

- That's how it is... -.

Immediately afterwards, the man took out a sword, which the blue-eyed man quickly recognized (It was a sword that had a black handle, with a sapphire and an amethyst at the beginning of the sword).

- He wanted you to have this... -.

He handed it to 4 carefully, while realizing what that meant...

- That means... - Sori asked, very worried.

- General Nicolás Rainstore passed away... - the man said dryly.

- It can't be... - said Doll (Another cadet).

SMG4 fell to his knees while hugging the sword. All the other Suns began to murmur things... 4 felt like his world was falling apart... Instantly, he began to feel some tears coming out of his eyes...

The funeral of General Nicolás Rainstore was very sad. All the Suns were gathered, listening as General Máximo Olivera (The most powerful Sun in base 12 and one of the founders of the Suns). Then 4 had to say nails words...

- Today we lost a great man... - SMG4 began to say - General Nicolás Rainstore was a great man, being his student, I learned many things... I know that he also taught things to others... Now that he was a man who helped everyone... So treasure that... I know that he fought to the end, like the Great General of the Suns that he was... So his death was not in vain.. -.

When he finished saying that, he came down from the podium and sat next to Sori (Who couldn't stop crying) and Evan (Another cadet who was training and who was crying just like Sori). Then, 4 Major Suns took a photo of General Rainstore, put it on a flag with the Suns logo and set it on fire...

It was a way of saying that that person was not going to return, but that he was going to be a new Sun, who would take care of everyone from above...

SMG4 still couldn't believe that from that day on he would no longer see General Rainstore... After the ceremony, he locked himself in his room... He sat on the floor... Where he finally managed to release all the tears he had ignored all the time...

While Eggdog and Beeg shared their pain, since the General was one of the people who was against the Suns forcing 4 to abandon them... Since before Eggdog and Beeg arrived it was strictly forbidden for the Suns to have pets , but when the General saw that the blue-eyed boy was happy (because at first he didn't smile with anyone, he was very sad all the time) when he was with them, he asked that the rule not be changed.will apply with the...

- That damn bastard... - 4 said between his teeth - First to SMG3... Melony... Bob... All my friends... And now to my teacher... -.

He then stood up, paced in front of the mirror on his desk and saw the photos he had (One that he had with the entire SMG4 Crew, another that he had with SMG3 and the last one was of him with Beeg, Eggdog and his teacher). He gritted his teeth and punched the wall.

- I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU, LORD OF SHADOWS - he shouted - I'M GOING TO TAKE VENGEANCE, I SWEAR THAT I'M GOING TO FINISH YOU, EVEN IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO! -.

He took another breath,the more tears came out of his eyes.

- DID YOU UNDERSTAND ME DAMN?! -.

After saying that, she cried again for a long time afterwards, until her head started to hurt too much. So he lay down on his bed, followed by Eggdog and Beeg...

SMG4, after the second most horrible day of his life, managed to rest a little...
