Prophecy Failure: Mr. Reckless NOT Harbinger of Death

One's trash is another's treasure. Varun may have failed and died after being the Prophecy hero, the end of the chaos, Rahambose... but he wishes for another to rise, after he falls. By telling his story of the Prophecy Failure, he uses the last of his breath and hope, hoping for the real hero to rise. A secret superhero. A Psychopath. A nightmare causing dragon. The last survivor of the second strongest intelligent beings. A normal college student, barely ever travelled in his life, summoned to an alien planet and given powers. A normal city, never having seen snow, covered in ice. A normal friend group, who quarrel amongst themselves, left to fight against things beyond their wildest dreams. A normal girl, who can't take care of self, forced to be the queen of Pluto. A Prophecy Failure, worth telling. Will a story be enough? To bring about a hero? Or just another Prophecy Failure? At least heroes are real. But so is he, Rahambose. And so is the fact that: in the end it is ALWAYS Rahambose.

Prologue

Every tell-able story, starts with things going crazy, with unusual happenings in a normal, innocent, life. I wasn't innocent, neither did my life turn out to be normal, and things went awry. I sound straight out of the twentieth century, but this happened in the year twenty-twenty, the year of chaos, as we called it.

A story gets interesting with fights, unusual happenings, humour, the story-teller and death. Congratulations, you are getting the all-in-one pack here… me. A funny guy facing unusual happenings, fights through it and reaches death, telling his story to you.

You are hearing a dead man's tale, at least by the time you get this message, is what I mean. You couldn't have given a dying guy his life too anyways, you have your own story and I do too… did too, I mean. Stories must be passed on for a better future, such that, someone learns from the failures. I didn't, and I hope my last message helps you learn from my failures. To reduce yours, I suppose.

I did mention something about a chaos, didn't I? You just might have heard about him, he's called Rahambose*, and he has occurred now… well, technically a while ago. Like two or three decades ago, when I wasn't even born. I was the selected warrior who was supposed to stop him, but as I said, it went awry.

The thing I said before about the century, well that was just a joke of sorts, I do that a lot. Well, ignoring the stupid jokes here, I failed, and the consequence… well, life ends with doubts of the latter… it clearly sucks. That's just how it is. Guess I'll just have to… die with it *laughs*.

My jokes soothe me, when I'm the only one here. But it scares me to the core, and reminds me that… I'm the only one here. I'm sorry, too emotional when I remember them.

So, Rahambose, you must have probably heard of him as a horror bedtime story from your grandma or some other way. Mine, probably didn't know and before she could even tell me… well, maybe in the afterlife I'll settle it with her.

I'm sorry; I might just be overdoing this with the puns. I just have a starting problem where I keep dragging things around until I get comfortable enough to tell, or make the other person uncomfortable and leave.

Hoping you still didn't leave, I'll start this now, so bear with me until the end, which will be a long ride. I'm Varun, the black sheep of my own story. The warrior supposed to take down Rahambose, a guy feared even by the dragons* (not me, Rahambose, duh!). So, in my defence, a human like me had no chance in this madness. I was just a college student who was pulled into this.

When you do decide on going against him, remember there are people to help you. It'll not just be upon you and only you. So, bring the team together and fight as one but not alone. People are hard to trust, just try it though; it's beautiful I tell you. My team will help you on this, if you reach out somehow to them… my Team-W.

Ok, let me start over and do this right. I'm Varun, the narrator of this long journey. And this is my story…

Chapter footnotes:-

1. Rahambose:- Meaning: Time Guardian. A chaos talked about in the dragons' prophecies. Some believe him as a phase and solution to a bigger threat. Said to perish in the hands of the H.O.D.*.

Real name: Lithin. Lithin, with the help of Hate, re-did his moment of being summoned by the crystal cave*, and stole the Rahambose gem, lying at the top of the crystals in the crystal cave.

2. Dragons:- They are evolved Primevels* who can altar between their normal Primevel forms and huge reptilian forms, similar to the mythical beasts called 'dragons'. A special gem, provided to them by the crystal cave, makes this possible and gives them unique abilities, like fire breath for red dragons. They are not actually a separate kind of Primevels, but since there were a lot of problems caused on their planets regarding this, they went to 'The Empire' and said themselves as separate kind of Primevels.

3. Crystal cave:- At a certain time of their lives, dragons are summoned to a place called crystal cave, which seems to be physically unreachable. This is where they gain their individual dragon gem. Many have tried to alter result or try to steal gems from the cave. Only two have succeded.

It is possible to choose not to accept the gem, in which case the crystal cave accepts their choice and releases them. Some have even been called upon by the crystal cave, more than once.

No purple* gems have ever been seen by anyone who was summoned to the crystal cave. But everyone has seen one red gem, laying above everything else, until recently, when it was stolen.

4. Purple dragons:- Strongest dragons. No estimate or real record of them is available.

5. Primevels:- The 'main' beings of the Meteor PLANET. They are almost same looking and have nearly same biology, even when on different planets. 'Almost' because they evolved on different planets, which had different atmospheres.

Primevels of each Meteor PLANET*:-

Monsteruin - Primels

Pluto - Androglectouns

Leishank - Shankans

Altar of Rahambose - ---

Nightrale - Starnians

Earth - Humans

The Empire - (Dragons)

6. Meteor PLANET:- It is commonly believed that the M in Meteor PLANET stands for Monsteruin, and PLANET, stands for, Pluto, Leishank, Altar of Rahambose, Nightrale, Earth and The Empire, respectively. But in truth, the Meteor* in Meteor PLANET, stands for, the altar of Rahambose, which is an actual meteor. And PLANET, stands for, Primolitan (Monsteruin), Leishank, Androglectoun (Pluto), Nightrale, Earth and The Empire, respectively.

The term Monsteruin, to Primolitan, was given by Leishank. Which they later just went with and is commonly just called as Monsteruin now.

The Meteor part to Meteor PLANET, was added recently, after the discovery of Altar of Rahambose. And its prior and first name was, Meteor. Before Altar of Rahambose appeared, the term was just PLANET, unlike what is commonly mistaken of it.

7. Meteor:- Meaning: bad omen, or Knell.

Leishankan language.

8. H.O.D.:- Harbinger of Death. The first Primevel warrior* and their leader. He is supposed to have shared his secrets behind his strength, through books, which others used and formed the Primevel warriors. There was only one known H.O.D., and all known about him, is that he is dead.

Cause of death: to put an end to Rahambose, when it first occured.

9. Primevel warriors:- An army of warriors, formed by the first H.O.D., they look out for threats such as Rahambose, and attempt to end it. They are powerful than usual Primevels and posses extra skills.

The Primevel warriors' origin and headquaters is in Monsteruin, and they are scattered across the Meteor PLANET, nullifying major apocalypses.
