2 Dunya

Dunya, a world filled with endless possibilities. If you dream, that dream will eventually come true.

BUT

Power corrupts all and no one is an exception, whether all powerful or weak, intelligent or not, poor or rich, all will eventually be corrupted by power and in order to gain such power would do ANYTHING.

That brings us to the present, where all that can be seen is blood, blood and more blood. This place, Dunya has become nothing but a playground for the corrupt to wage war on one another in order to gain the upper hand not caring if innocents are hurt if the end justifies the means.

"Father please stop this nonsense"

Echoed through a large castle that sat on top of a hill, it had the presence of royalty and nobility to it. The front gates were pure gold along with the gates surrounding the castle. Despite the size of the castle on this dark evening there was only one room which was being occupied, it was a large room which at the end had a giant gold-plated throne which at this moment in time is being occupied by a large and striking figure. The person sat on the chair had a terrifying presence but at the same time he felt warm and loving.

Knelt in front of the being on the chair was a young boy who looked about 15-16 years old but could only be descried as a prince who is unrivaled in charm and looks, with pure white hair and dark

red eyes.

"Father please stop this nonsense"

Could be heard coming from the boy's mouth, it sounded powerful but at the same time respectful and heartfelt.

"Aiden, I have told you before when you address me address me as lord"

The voice sounding thundered across the room with all who were present shivering in their shoes.

"Calm down my love you know Aiden didn't mean it as disrespect"

This came from a women's voice who had an appearance of angel.

"go on Aiden what were you going to say"

"sorry my lord, I apologise for my rudeness"

The boys voice didn't sound frightened like everyone else's it sound more respectful but fearless. As

the boy continued

"lord why must you go to war, you are a benevolent lord, you must understand the chaos this war can cause not to mention the devastation and casualties to innocents"

"Aiden I have already made my decision, I am not just going to sit back and watch any longer, I know you don't understand why but when it is your turn I hope you make the right decision but right now it is not yours to make it is mine"

"But lord innocent lives will be lost, and I don't see any results where any side can be claimed the victor"

"Aiden I can see where you're coming from, but I can't sit back and watch my people being slaughtered by those beasts"

"Fine then let me go talk to their leader, he will listen to me"

"I know he would listen to you, but I can't allow that as the lord I forbid you"

"Forbid me, who are you to forbid me"

The young boy nonchalantly stands up as his presence is increasing as even the lord in the chair is starting to get a little afraid

"I came here out of respect for you as my father and the lord of our people but now your throwing phrases like "I forbid you" who do you think you are"

"you know what have your stupid war but I nor Alfie will be fighting"

From the shadows a voice came with mischievous intention

"who needs you anyway, we have other plans"

"fine I accept you do not need to fight and nor does Alfie, but your 2 older brothers will be"

The boy's expression has changed the moment he heard his 2 brothers are going

"Hold on my lord you can't send them you know what they like and plus without me or Alfie who can control them"

"I'm sorry but as the lord I have no other choice seen as my 2 most powerful beings aren't fighting"

"but father"

As the boy is still pleading, that same mischievous voice speaks up again

"insolence how dare you address the lord in such manner, what a disgrace"

This time the young boy has had enough

"who dares interferes into this matter between me and my lord"

the pressure coming from the boy would be strong enough to bring the moon down if not controlled, but the boy isn't backing down if anything his presence is increasing to dangerous levels for everyone in the room.

"go on speak up who dare to interfere"

As everyone in the room is struggling to speak a voice comes from the chair

"Aiden what are you doing"

the voice coming from a goddess of a women, with that one-line the boy came back to his senses and releases the pressure.

"sorry mother I "

Not knowing what to say

"come on Alfie were leaving"

a boy slightly older than Aiden walks beside him.

"hold on Aiden I haven't finished"

the boy stops in his tracks.

"after this war is over, I will be stepping down as lord and your older brother Edward will be taking over"

Just as the man sat in the chair finished a man came running in sweating and bubbling his way in

"lord we have an emergency"

"what is it"

"well we have reports that the Lord of the werewolves is getting involved himself"

The young boy then in a state shock

"what are you talking about",

"it's just as I said the lord of the enemy is getting involved"

"well Aiden what are you going to do"

As the boy's presence is again on the rise but just as it was getting dangerous, he stops and leaves.

Meanwhile in the room the man gave the orders

"get the troops ready were going to war on the crack of dawn"

"Alfie do you think I'm in the wrong, tell me the truth"

a tall handsome boy replied

"Sir from my experience you have never been wrong, and I don't see that changing"

the young boy sighing and turns to the other

"thanks for the support it seems you're the only one I could count now he has got involved"

"Sir Aiden what are you going to do"

"I'm going to sleep"

the tall boy in a confused state

"pardon"

the boy repeats

"I'm going to sleep"

"but why"

"I'm tired of this constant fighting and just want to rest for a bit and hopefully everyone comes to their senses by the time I wake up"

"Sorry Alfie, I leave this to you and wake me up when you see fit"

"this Dunya is full of idiots, I'm no exception, all everyone ever wants is power, power and more power, not caring who is hurt in the process, now look where we are, at a point even someone as powerful as I is helpless to do a thing, what a pathetic being I am"

"Sir Aiden this is not your fault"

"Alfie, stop"

"but sir"

"one more thing, if during this war things reach a point of no return, I want you"

"Sir I can't do that, my sole reason to live is to protect my savior, you my lord Aiden, I can't leave"

"Alfie this is an order"

"Fine as you wish my Lord"

Boom

"it's begun, well I guess this is goodbye for now, Alfie"

With that the boy opens a coffin and goes to sleep, but what transpired while he was asleep was something not a single being foresee coming.
