10 Chapter 10 Sacrifice

The winds blew by the order of my creator; It was all around me and I turned into the divine wind and was reconstructed within the temple before Quetzalcoatl. He was fasting as I appeared before him. He glanced at me and continued his fast and said " I have fasted for three days before your arrival to prepare for the ceremony. It is time I tell you the prophecy of the chosen one which is you.

Long ago a fellow Teteo whose name was Piltzintechtli who was a Teteo of vision and healing among other things. He spoke with a hint of sadness and trauma in his eyes yet it carried a small silver of hope while the words flowed as he said "Darkness will fall upon the creations (humans) of the Teotl. They will forget their true history, culture, and us Teteoh, we will wage war with darkness and all of us will fall while only one-morning star will survive and await the chosen one of our creation. The chosen one will come from the sky and meet the wind and be known as Cuetlachtli. The morning star will help Cuetlachtli to become the new god in our stead and raise us as his followers. He must go through various trials to fight the darkness in different worlds and finally return to his original world and bring our creations back everything they lost even us. We will bow before Cuetlachtli as the new Lord of all of us Teotl. The changes he will go through is unpredictable but his name will be his strength." And with that Piltzintechtli pulled me aside and told me of the ritual I must partake in order to help you, my child.

I was confused because I didn't expect to go through multiple worlds after this. Nothing in the ritual said anything about reclaiming memories. As my thoughts kept racing my creator stood before me and with a wave of his hand opened a portal and to my surprise the portal lead to the place I came from before here which was a world of nothing but darkness but it was not evil it was just didn't contain any life. My creator guided me to step in first and I couldn't see anything before me. All of a sudden a bright light was shining behind me and it maneuvered around me to get in front of me slowly transforming into a long feathered dragon. He simply waved of his claw and the tecpatl that he used to cut his blood was to give me the blessing to speak, read, learn any language with ease was in my hands. I heard his voice in my mind as I look at the tecpatl that shined with all the elements.

His voice explained to me that within the tecpatl was the divine essence of all the Teteoh who died in the war. All of a sudden my hand that was holding the tecpatl lifted up and was going towards my creator's heart. Fearing the worse I tried to resist but seeing my creator expressions he knew this was going to happen and he lifted his scale to expose his heart and It was cut into four pieces. In awe and shock, I watched as his body burned with a divine fire while some of his feathers became embers those embers touched the first piece of his heart and it became the moon. while he grabbed the other piece and blew his fire from his breath on it while he was grimacing in pain that piece became the sun.

The ritual continued and his burning body balled up and some of the embers and ashes of his body became stars while the third piece of his heart became a growing ball of magma so bright it swiftly went back inside his body burning body becoming the core while he balled up breathing smoke the smoke was becoming clouds.

His blood became water such as lakes, rivers, oceans, His bones became rocks, minerals, ores, His eyes became two things the sky and a protective barrier around the planet itself His mind expanded and became a universe while seeding the planet and the entire universe with life.

This occurred all while his body shifting into a planet. The fourth heart went within me and merged with my heart granting me weak divinity and affecting all the orbs as they all merged together while the weak divine orb I had was also absorbed by my heart and the Gods essence within the tecpatl was also absorbed by me. My body was going through changes I didn't know what was going to happen as I was slowly descending on the planet itself. My hands grew claws, my bones shifted, my body grew fur that was glistening a golden color, my body became strong and full of muscles and my skin was dense under my fur. I could stand on my legs but felt I was a wolf combined with the form of a man. My face elongated into that of a wolf I truly became my name. I felt powerful and began to trust all the changes.

When It was over 5 large feathers of my creators landed in front of me I slowly changing back into my human form somehow with confusing and in awe of the change I reached out and noticed my summoned ring still on my finger while I touched one of the feathers I then heard my creator spoke one last time. "these five feathers possess gifts I had stored within them for this moment. The first feather turned into various bowls with bones inside, Which also included a codex for me to read that provided instructions on what to do with the bones.

Each feather came with instructions. The second was a temple dedicated to me that will magically engrave my accomplishments, successes, failures anywhere in any universe. The third was various weapons that I had was told to claim with my summoning energy and it would forever become mine to call from anywhere and everywhere. The forth was the ancestral memories of my people in the first world where I supposedly came from and how we got to this sorry state. The fifth was a simple feather that when I was ready all I had to do was break it and it would send me to the world of my first trail after that it would give me the ability to travel to any world.

My ring spoke to me after all this and said "finally now I can complete my final task I will show you your memories of your first life before you came to this world of darkness and how you came to be" It was at that moment my mind felt like it would split open and could not because I was somehow healing at the same time. I saw Quetzalcoatl holding a conversation with my ring while I was asleep in the temple the first time he saved me and he gave my ring something that was a light that floated to the ring and said when I sacrifice myself to aid my chosen creation take this and give him all this knowledge.

The vision shifted into showing a young man whose name was Carlos Torres Lopez whose people were called Mexican in that world but he lived in a place called America. His father escaped a land called Mexico in search of a better life and a future. This is how Carlos came to exist in America his father met an American woman and married her and had kids.

Carlos grew up and had two kids and a wife who was from an island called Puerto Rico. Over the years Carlos noticed those who were from "Latin countries" were mistreated and within the land called America. He felt the injustice and cries of his people not knowing the deeper significance of those the anger within.

He starting doing research and learn that his people were not Latin but indigenous to the continent currently known as "American" over the years he became a successful spokesperson about the truth and spread it all over the Americas. He took his family to Mexico to help everyone know the truth and there were various people in America and Mexico who were split into two groups those who were brainwashed and those who believed. The third dangerous group was the privileged ones who held status and power based on the lightness of their skin but were brainwashed as well.

It was this time a president was elected that many of his own people in the United States started calling 45, orange Cheeto, etc, etc. and he was not Carlos' president. The man is known as 45 spread fear, hate, racism, and division among the United States citizens and imprisoned asylum seekers from central and south America.

On Carlos' trip back from Mexico to the Americas, he showed the boarder patrol his passport and his family did the same. The agents working at the border took the passport to "check something" and claimed he and his family were not citizens. They threw them into the detention camps in Texas.

Claiming a lie that he and his family were illegally crossing the invisible border. His youngest son was the first to die at the hands of the agents for they refuse to provide the proper clothes, food, or medicine for the youngest child this is how his death came about. His first son was the second to die because he was being a child and not listening to the agents commands and therefore mistreated and beaten until his death, His wife was raped, beaten and killed in the camp because she refused to drink water from the toilet and requested to drink clean water and despite his protests in order to protect his family there was nothing he could do while his family and his people suffered at the hands of these people and while he was the last to remain and with nothing to hold him back he lost himself in madness.

Attacking the enemy who claims they were protecting America and looked at the television screen he saw 45 smiling on the news. While he was being beaten near to death he eyes could see that the agents had darkness surrounding their aura it had hate, malice, and evil while there were strings above their head that went right to the screen where he perceived 45 and saw the truth that 45 was an avatar puppet for an even bigger evil dark entity that had darkness surrounding him and while fighting Carlos screamed a roar that represented the culmination of his people's resistance against colonization and then he died as the agents feared for their life and shooting him with multiple bullets.

His eyes open in a place of darkness with his body changed to full indigenous features rather than half American half Mexican. Despite the darkness all around it was filled with spiritual ancestors they that they brought him to this place another dimension that has nothing to give him everything he needs to save the rest of his people from the continuous colonization, oppression, disease that his people suffered at the hands of something they called the European darkness.

He even saw his wife and kids with the ancestors and they told him if he agreed the ancestors would use all their spirits to give the future a fighting chance and he would temporary forget. They told him he heard their call within his blood against the oppression of his people the ancestors helped him in order to spread the truth by screaming against the atrocities their people suffered. He heeded the ancestors call and warrior screams when he first experiences racism because of his looks, accent, and lineage and thus he was granted a chance to fix and save his soul and body to be full Mexica/Raramuri in order to give him strength, stamina, intelligence, and health.

The purpose was to awaken whatever diluted tribal connection he had left in his blood and to remove any possibility that any form of the darkness within him by purging his European ancestors which were diluted darkness but still dangerous. His wife in spirit form told him to accept the ancestors' request because nobody had to go through what they went through and thus he reluctantly agreed. The spirits became a multitude of colors and he heard his wife and kids spiritual whispers that they will always be with him while the ancestors were calling him Cuetlachtli and with that, he passed out and later waking up in darkness (see chapter 1)

His pained stopped and tears were flowing down his face once more as he knew what he was fighting for now. His ring bid him farewell and faded into many little particles of golden light as it accomplished everything he needed to learn. Cuetlachtli sprang into action and looking at the divine weapons and applied his summoning energy on them and made them his own. He looked at the bowl of bones and read the Codex.

It was quite simple he grounded all the bones in each bowl and he added his own twist he cut his palm and let his blood flow into one bowl and mixed it up and buried it within the earth. With the other bowls, he summoned the blood of various creatures such as animals, mythical beings, elves, dwarf, giants, humans who were indigenous on turtle island, including others since they deserve to be free of darkness but on another continent in his world. he then added everything different type of blood in the many various bowls imaginable.

He repeated the process and thus he was done now. He walked into the temple and saw an egg left behind in the temple by Quetzalcoatl and beside it was vital which contained eztenqui. His blood so he picked it up as per the instruction under the vital and read it and poured it on the dragon egg and It birth the first Divine Ancestral Dragon which had the ability of all dragons yet it contained feathers on its wings due to Quetzalcoatl blood influencing it. I branded it with my summoning energy and it became mine.

Seeing this baby dragon and learning the purpose of its job was to be both my summon and to protect the temple from intruders since Quetzalcoatl was clear that no mortal or Immortal was to enter but me and other gods. At this point all this little baby dragon had to do was grow up and in order to create other dragons is either to use its blood, teeth or claw was to be buried into the earth and all dragons would spring from that one spot and all dragons would automatically be my summoned beast. I was done waiting so I used Quetzalcoatl final feather and made a slash downwards and a door opened. Looked at the dragon and named it Tlamatini which meant wise man in respect towards Quetzalcotal to never forget what he did for me as I walked through the dimensional doorway to a new world.
