Chapter 4 Episode 16

Doop, doop, doop, doop. Rotating in amazement, Samson had to pause at the passing of dancers moving to the beat of the Myrmidon Soldiers pounding or tapping their polearms on the earth and the hum of swords twirling and whipping through the air.. "Grand Rising Myrms." Clicking in response to their Queen's greeting all laid eyes on her. "Today we celebrate the letting go of an amicable being who valiance shifted the energy in the war against the Ornithions a century ago." Grinning from ear to ear at the cheers, Samson's eyes shifted from the bands of people standing around the altar to the citizens standing on buildings. "We have already graven our respects through the passing of our Sol Corona but now we must also show our love through the joy we express of their elevation to a new state." 

 Eyes growing wide from the breach of claws from underneath the earth's surface Princess Sarai face began to glow at the uprising of a scorpion/ spider of a Quintessant breaking free to surface. Lost in the gleaming moonlight reflecting off the creature's blackish red exoskeleton armor. "Can I keep it."

 "Can we keep it?" asked Sarai eagerly.

"It is yours to keep." replied the queen with a bow. "To ensure a safe and speedy voyage."

 "Yaaa!" hollered the Princess with a skip to her new companion. "I am going to name you Arion." Hugging the Quintessence hairy spider leg, Sarai head shot up at the click of Mermot claws followed by a scuttling dance which sent her into a giggling fit.

 "It appears the Mermot have already accepted its new masters." Turning to Abbott, Queen Cidae gave him a smile. "It is said that once you share a connection with these Quints they will be loyal to the very end. Omega, this final gift is an expression of our loyalty, commitment, and love. I speak, favor upon your journey and that you are led only by your higher self."

 Bowing in gratitude Abbott replied. "We humbly accept your gifts and in return give thanks."

Peering down at her friend Queen Cidae told him, "Rise Omega for we show respect and gratitude through high vibrational activities." 

 Smirking before Abbott could utter a response, a vibrating hum and a couple of clicks led to a flurry of song and dance throughout the Kingdom.

"We have arrived at our location." Listening to the crunch of his final footsteps while taking in the delicious, dry, and earthy aroma the muscular traveler rose his arms absorbing the sun's rays. 

 "This is not a place for leisure." Spoke the traveler's companion with a kick of dust and a twitch of his face. "Honestly I don't know how you gain joy in such a barren and hot region."

 "It's all about perspective's my friend. Plus we Sarahi are beings of fire who live and roam the desert and rocky lands." Stretching his arms allowing the open breeze to feel on him the cacao giant smiled. "This is no different from my home. Except our territory is also enveloped with hills and dunes of all sizes while this land stretches evenly out in all directions."

 "Thank you for sharing with me." Pulling out an oval device in a tug of his white beard the second Evol pushed the purple button at the bottom of the remote face. "Oneef of Shadow's Throne we have arrived at the designated ley line. Shall we begin the ritual."

 Casting a glance off at the calm waters around the tiny land he sat on, Oneef unfolded his legs and rose. "I am stationed in the middle of a Tarragon in the middle of a lake." said the irritated Djinn. "Let this ritual commence so I can finish my assignment."

 Gritting his teeth the lanky man tugged at his beard, calming himself. "I understand this assignment is a priority, but the way you address me first must be taken care of. I am Madaurai The IBex and I will be treated with respect."

 "Respect." huffing out a laugh, Shadow Throne shook his head. "Working with me is about as much honor or respect any being shall receive. What you see is what you get."

 Sensing the agitation in his comrade from the clench of his jaw and the bounce of his leg Madaurai's companion took a step forth along with a deep breath. Steeling himself the hunk slightly put a rise to his confidence. "This assignment is not work of the ego but of a special request." shaking his head at the words the EVOL corrected himself. "This is a duty bestowed to us due to the trust our Lord has for us. Let's not error because of an inner quarrel when the ability to release is in our orders itself."

 Beaming down on the holographic image with annoyance Oneef exhaled. "That is your Lord. Do not place me in a bottle and limit me. I am an assassin…a mercenary's only master is himself." Still displacing his anger over his face Shadow Throne took another deep inhale disciplining both his mind. "Yet you are correct. Duty comes first. Let the ritual begin."

 Remaining stubborn for a bit longer, a glance from his companion led Madaurai to throwing his hands up. "Alright." Stomping his foot on the ground a block of earth rose from the ground. "Sarachi."

 Shifting his attention from the stone coffin to his partner the dark caramel man body tensed up at a thump of a body hitting the Earth. "I am ready when you are." Spoke Sarachi to the hologram. "Shall we countdown from eight."

 Lifting his gaze up to the murky bubble hovering slightly above him then the pentagram below him facing up Oneef semi slid his attention back to his soon to be associates. "Let's commence in six…five…four…three…"

 Tossing a quick glance at the inverted five star pentagram below them at two Sarachi maneuvered his right arm in as if her were grabbing his side in pain and at one lashed out with a swipe that unleashed a boomerang of energy to hack off the head of the Quint hanging upside down in its earth coffin.

 Grinning at the downpour of blood running from the Quintessence neck, Oneef's head rose up to the Quint hovering about in his bubble of darkness. "Time to convert your life's essence." Said the Djinn with the closing of his fist causing his bubble to condense and juice the beast of his blood.

 Catching all of the blood until it was full, both Pentagrams lit up in a blaze of color; indigo for Sarachi and Madaurai while Oneef's five star unleashed a crimson red glow. 

 "Ahc poof" catching dust in his mouth from the uproar of wind and energy by the time Madaurai spat out the debris a golden light sprung from its source. "Success!" Shouted The Ibex at the appearance of a golden door. "Sarachi we finally enter the third dimension."

 Peering up at golden rays breaking through dark clouds Oneef took a step back at a rainbow of light beaming down from the heavens. Starting off violet the colors, waned into indigo with its descension of vibration, then blue, followed by green, yellow, orange, and finally red once it touched down on Earth. 

 "Woah." Stepping out of the beam of light with an almost golden glow Sarachi took a deep inhale. "This density smells so much fresher. Where is the sulfuric smell?" Tossing his head from side to side the EVOL could feel the shift in his energy. "I am going to appreciate every moment in this dimension." Turning his attention to Oneef the hunk gave him a smile. "Greetings."
