17 Phoenix Orb

Bus consciousness returns to to his body, after experiencing the hell that his son has been through.

Belus awakens in a place that is unfamiliar to him, the scenery was beautiful, the trees had a red shine with red round plump fruits that the tree is bearing. There was millions upon millions of these trees on the mountain. The river had a red tint to it that really complemented the scenery, if one to look at this place one would think they had entered a heaven red in color.

Belus just took a mere glance at the scenery infront of him, it was beautiful to him but he did not have the luxury to enjoy such a thing.

Belus was standing up when he regained consciousness, he let his body drop on the floor as grief started to strike his heart. Belus looked at the floor with his teary eyes as he remmbered all the events his son has been through.

"I have failed you Zena, I have failed you as a father" Belus said while sobbing. The words were choked up as the sadness in his voice couldn't make complete words.

"GOD DAMMIT" Belus shouted as he started punching the floor.

The crys of Belus can be heard from miles on end as he punches the floor with all the force in his body. Belus couldn't feel the pain as seeing what happened with Zena numbed out all physical pain he had.

Trails of blood can be seen where Belus is punching the ground, flesh and bones started to show on his hands as he continued punishing himself.

"Why must the God's do this to me" Belus said while tears are bursting like a river.

What father would ever want to see something like that happen to their son, what father would want to see their kids suffer any hardships, yet he had to see the worse of the worse happen to Zena.

Belus heart has already been torn a million pieces, the pain of seeing all this happen to Zena and seeing Selins his very own wife, the mother of Zena kill him herself is what truly breaks Belus mind.

"WHY,WHY,WHY?!!!" Belus shouted as he continued punching the floor without any mercy.

Remembering Selins killing their son, is what drives Belus to near insanity. He doesn't understand how will he be able to avenge his son, he wants to avenge yet he can not at the same moment.

"I WILL KILL YOU ALL, I WILL KILL YOU ALL YOU FUCKING BASTARDS" Belus shouts as he crys more and more.

Belus shouts can be herd from miles on end, the scene is truly tragic. A father had to witness his son get sexually assaulted by an elder, his own wife killing their son. what person wouldn't go mad from all of this.

Belus shouts continued for half a day, Belus didnt realize that he wasn't in the palace anymore where he was with Leviant Quin.

After hours of crying Belus got up on his feet went to lay his back on a tree near by, Belus went to look at his hands that were now bones, he looked at them not feeling a single bit of pain.

Belus looked up at the sky and laughs at how tragic his life has been, scenes of him getting bullied when he was younger all the way until adulthood to the way he was treated. Remembering all these events Belus just started to laugh manically.

"HAHHAHA!!," Belus laughed loudly as his mind seeps into madness.

In a distant moutain a large beast emerges "CAWWWWWW" The beast roared on the top of the mountain. A shock wave envelopes rhe regions near by, causing mountains to shake and mudslides to begin.

Belus hears the shock waves of the Beast he looks up while covering his ears with whats left of his hands. Sonic boom of the waves causes Belus ears to start bleeding and his mind trembles from being shook.

"What is that" Belus looks at the beast on top of the mountain that is miles away from where he is.

Belus becomes shocked at the appearance of the beast that he is looking at, the beast unfolded its wings, the feathers had a rainbow shine to them with deep red metallic coloring,

The beast took flight, it soared through the red skys, the beast looked impeccable as it was cutting through the air, swirls of wind could be seen as it flaps its enormous wings.

"Oh, no" Belus sees the beast headed towards him, he doesn't know what to make of the situation.

Belus worries becomes less and less as he sees the beast approaching closer and closer to him, Belus feels the wind touching on his skin as the beast moves closer and closer. "I dont care anymore honestly" Belus said saddned he doesnt mind it if he died at the hand of the beast.

The beast descended from the red skys transforming into a human right before Belus eye's.

"Boy, you don't seem to surprised in seeing a Phoenix" The Phoenix said while starring sharply at Belus.

Belus was indeed surprised by the fact that the beast turned human, he didnt show it outwardly. The Phoenix had red long hair reaching his thighs with sharp red eye's that could see through a mans soul. The Phoenix physic looked muscular and manly, he was wearing a red robe but you can still see the definitionin of his muscles as you look at him.

"My life is a joke anyway, just kill me and get it over with. The son i adored was killed by his mother, as for me im nothing but a mere cripple i wouldnt be able to kill the people who hurt my son even if i wanted to." Belus said as he was looking at the red sky accepting his reality of being utterly hopless.

"Young man, you seem to be confused at where you are" The Phoenix said to Belus in his burly voice.

The Phoenix voice was rough and could be heard that his human language has a very deep accent to it, the voice was deep and burly. Belus couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable at how deep his voice is.

"Then where im i, since you wanted me to ask" Belus said sarcastically to the Phoenix.

Belus wasn't in the least bit interested in the Phoenix, he is still going through his own issue's, he just witnessed how his son died, the one who really killed his son was his wife so he doesn't know how to truly avenge his death. Belus knows even if he killed Number thirty two and Elder Guan he still wouldn't have killed who killed his son.

"This is your soul Belus, why did you think you couldn't feel any pain, look at what you have done to your hands" The Phoenix said in his deep voice.

"My soul?, what are you talking about" Belus said as he couldn't possibly believe what the Phoenix is saying.

"Wait what did you just call me" Belus only now realized that the man just addressed him by his name, he didnt catch it earlier as he only responded quickly not realizing that the man actually said his name.

"I called you Belus, you are my master after all, i should really be addressing you as master". The Phoenix said in his deep voice.

Belus stands up seemingly confused at the whole situation. "Wait, what do you mean?, im not understandings anything" Belus said confusingly.

"I know things will seem confusing at first, i have been with you since birth, i have seen all the trials you have endured. The death of your son, the death of yourself, i have seen it all within your soul Belus" The Phoenix explained to Belus.

"With in my soul?, why are you here?, if this is truly my soul as you say then prove it" Belus said seemingly questioning if this is really his soul.

"You aren't able to regain consciousness due to the trauma of seeing your son being killed in yhe most despicable way. You don't want to wake up to reality from this nightmare"

"Why im i here i was always with you since birth im a part of your very soul an existence that can not be separated any longer"

"As for proving if this is your soul, i won't have to do that, you did it yourself already. Look at your hands now" The Phoenix explained.

Belus looks at his hands, shock appears on his face the bones that came out the flesh earlier are no longer there, his hands are back to the way they were as if nothing earlier has ever happened to them.

Belus looks at the Phoenix man with reluctance in his eye's, he knows in his heart that he didn't want to accept the reality of what happend to his son. Seeing that his hands returned to normal he started to believe in what the Phoenix is saying to him.

"What is you name?" Belus asked.

"I dont not have a name as of yet, im wishing that you master will grant me a title, that will be a great honor to me" The Phoenix said as he kneeled down infront of Belus.

Belus is at a loss as for what to do as this isn't the situation he imagined it to be, he thought the Phoenix was going to kill him when he flew towards him. Now the Phoenix is kneeling down infront of him waiting for a name to be granted by him.

"Fine ill call you, Helios" Belus said.

"It's a great honor to finally be named, this will complete the ritual" Helios said.

"Wait, What ritual" Belus said as he feels his consciousness fade away from his soul.

Helios just simply looked at Belus and smiled as a sees Belus body fading away from his soul.
