Bloodlines of Power(Kenryoku no kettō)

29 August 1945 World War 2.

The Amazon Rainforest.

Asher Pov.

As soon as I was notified I ran, My heart was racing, I couldn't breath properly. "Master" I called out as loud as I could, but I still got no response , my throat sore. Damn it! I've been in this forest for almost four years but I still didn't know my way around.

The only thing I could do was yell "Master", Finally after 3 minutes of running I found him. Doing push-ups with his shirt off. "I can't believe it took you 3 minutes and 36 seconds to find me" He said disappointed . "I would have arrived faster if I didn't have to avoid those damn rubber soldiers" I said while clinging my right fist. "Excuses only hinder you from greatness" He said with a wide smirk on his face.

Realizing that I had important imformation I quickly composed myself.

"Master I have urgent news" my voice raspy, from all the running.

"Can't It wait?" he asked in an annoyed tone even though I said it was urgent.

"I'm sorry master, but the war it's getting worse" I said trying to hide the fear in my words.

"Relax it's barely been four years, I'm sure Noah can handle it" My master said while waving me away with his hand.

"The base was attacked ..." Not even giving me a chance to finish my sentence he stood up and interrupted.

"When was this?" he asked angrily .

"Two days ago" I responded. I watched him stand there contemplating what he would do, Even though this news caught him off guard he looked as composed as ever. It was at that point when I noticed my master had developed more muscle even though hes only been training for a combined totalof 7 days this past 4 years. Imagine doing a hundred 700 hundred push-ups and being in shape as if you've been doing it for years. Even though we are of the same race he truly is something else. His long black hair which he had not groomed in years flowing with the force of the wind, his square jaw and his amber eyes and muscular physic he truly was the perfect specimen.

"Are you done Admiring me?" He asked with a smile on his face.

"uhhhh" I couldn't muster up any words from the shock , how did he know? I asked myself.

My master signaled with his hand for me to walk wih him, whilst we were walking he said

"Asher I'm leaving" with determination in his eyes.

Even though I didn't want him to leave , not because I'd miss him of course, He was just the only one I could talk to In this danm forest. I knew he had to leave since If the Emancipators lost to the keepers it would be his fault since he abandoned his duties in the councile at such a inconvinient time to say the least, so I just nodded in approval.

"Grow strong I want to see stronger than me when I return".

"As if thats ever possible" I responded.

My master started laughing. "HA HA HA, You always know what to say to chear up this egotistical master of yours, stay safe young one ".

"When are you coming back?" I asked worringly

"In 74 years " He answered without hesitation.

2021 present day Rome Italy

That was 76 years ago, my master left on important business but I haven't seen him since, He left and 3 days after that it was announced that the war had ended but he didn't come back, The world has changed now. Humans have developed gadgets and machines that make life so much easier. I decided to place my gold in a few companies I thought were going to suceed and now I'm a billionaire, investing is what they call it. Ive also been searching for my master on the side.

Atrani- a small town in Italy.

Ro Chikara Pov

*Yawn* I hate school, it's a waste of time. Everything we do I understand , I get a hundred on all my tests, and I don't even study, Even though I always slept in class.

"Mr Chikara!" I heard my teacher call out my name and I didn't know why, When I looked to my right I saw Claire standing next to me
"I'm sorry Miss Claire what was the question again?" I asked with a confused look on my face. My teacher had a look of discontent on her face as she repeated the question.
"What year did the second world war end and how?"
"It ended in 1945 on the second of September, when it was announced that Adolf Hitler had committed suicide". I answered in a serious tone.

"Good, But you have to pay attention in class or else don't bother attending at all" My teacher said while writing my answer on the board. I didn't wanna be here, This is a waste of my time but Grandpa said this will be an important experience in my life, but I hated it.
*School bell rings*.

"Okay class don't forget to write your assignments and hand them in tomorrow"
little did she know this would be my last day at this crappy school, I'm leaving today I'm gonna attend a school with people just like me, a school with children gifted with the blood of the higher beings.

I arrived home and saw a limo on our driveway, was this the car that was gonna take me to my new school?
"Gramps I'm home!" I yelled out in a joyful tone
"Shut it brat, I know your excited but that is no excuse to make noise" My grandfather scolded
I walked in the room he was in and I saw him and an unknown man in a suit with blonde hair, blue eyes and tall build, my grandfather looked liked a child next to him with his small stature, long grey hair and wrinkled face, he lookes weak, but that wasn't the case my grandfather wasn't the most physically built but he was indeed strong.
"Its time" he said in a hushed tone
I tried to remain composed but a smile creeped up from my face due to the excitement. I nodded in agreement and we left the house and went to the car as I was about to open the door my grandfather held the handle. "Roru (my full name) you're about to enter the world of the elite, The lessons and training you will get there will much harder than what you've been doing so far, take care of yourself" My Grandfather said with a sad smile, while locking eye's with me. He opened the door and I got in the car, the Limo drove off the driveway and we left our residence.
Finally I'm gonna start my new life. The ride was rather quiet and boring, I tried to initiate conversation with the chauffeur but he only answered yes or no questions and kept his mouth shut when I asked him about his personal life, he didn't even want to tell me his name, I really expected "higher beings" to be more social with me. I couldn't wait to reach our destination so that I wouldn't be forced to be in this weird position. After hours of quietly sitting in the car, I felt it slow down, when it completely stopped the chauffeur told me get out of the vehicle. I was excited, I had finally arrived, but when I opened the door I was surprised at the sight in front of me. "Why are we at the airport" I asked, the chauffeur then proceeded to take my bags and head in the airport. "Follow me" He said in his usual calm and grumpy tone. Whilst we were in the airport and heading towards the jet I noticed something odd, There were no people in the airport, during day time nonetheless, I knew this couldn't have been some coincidence brought on by fate, but the "higher beings" just basically showing off their powers to a newbie in the true world. I entered the jet and the long game of Asking this guy questions he won't answer continued, boy did I love this game.
"We are here young one" The chauffeur said in a relaxed tone. My eyes baggy due to lack of sleep, I had to keep my guard up, Grandfather always said that no matter what happens, I should never let my guard down or I'd regret it one day, I never really practiced this teaching in the human society since they couldn't really harm me no matter how hard they tried, even when I got bullied I would just let them hit until they got tired, due to fear of killing them, they really were fragile, one missile is enough to kill thousands of them, But after a long flight and two car rides I've finally made it. The school where I'll find individuals just like me.
I stepped out of the car and what I saw surprised me, by the way the chauffeur was dressed I was expecting some Regal castle but this is completely different, A large forest like area that is filled with buildings that would make Windsor Castle seem like a commoners home.
"The test will begin soon, follow me young one" Said the chauffeur while checking his watch. I responded in a surprised tone "Test?, I wasn't told about a test"
"Just quiet down and follow me" The chauffeur replied in his usual calm voice, but I sensed he was getting annoyed, so I kept quiet and just followed along.
After what felt like an eternity of walking I saw a large Shiny gate, but to be honest large would be an understatement. "Enter that gate and your test will begin young one" the chauffeur said whilst walking away from me. When I tried opening the gate it didn't budge, and I immediately remembered that grandfather said that if I encounter an object I can't open or break I should release the mental chains that he placed on me, mental chains was how he described telling me not to use my powers in human society, because the poor creatures would either cower in fear or end up getting killed for trying to fight against me. We higher beings have the ability to control our cell growth, blood circulation and Nitrogen intake, since we didn't breath in Oxygen like humans, Thanks to this ability I was able to decrease my Nitrogen intake, slow down my blood flow to an extremely slow pace this in turn made me weaker, So did like a good little boy would do and listened to my Pop pop(grandfather), once I reverted my body to its natural manner, I was able to open the gate with ease. But as soon as I opened the gate, with my senses being heightened I sensed that something was coming and with killer intent nonetheless, This must be the test they were talking about?
