Chapter 2: The Seven Legendary Knights

Titan Base Camelot the Flying Castle

Noah was walking in the hall way with Markus, Marwin and Amerie.

Agent Q explained as they walk

"This is the Terrestrial Intervention Tactics Agency Network an organization founded by the seven legendary Titans, this flying base or castle as how it was used to be explained by the UN is designed by the best scientist of our time, our main objective is to intervene in any kind of threat against earth and it's people" Agent Q explained

"So? why am I here?" Markus asked

Agent Q and the other entered a room with a large round table in the middle the wall is decorated will all kind of swords and the Uniforms of the Former Titans.

Noah sat in one of the chairs and so did Marwin and Amerie.

"Because you've been chosen to be Lord Arthur, not by us though. by the will of Avalon" Amerie said

"Why are we talking like no one died? like Curl didn't die? a moment ago one of your so called precious friend died and we're just gonna talk about this plan? like he didn't exist?" Markus said out of frustration.

"Do you really think we already forgotten him?" Marwin asked as he look directly at Markus

"Isn't it? where's the funeral? the honorary burial?" Markus answered with questions

Marwin stood up in his chair, cold blue mist started emitting from his body, his iris' color changing from black to blue in the left and red in the right.

everyone just sat there looking at Markus, letting Marwin do his thing.

"Kid, your brother died because he wanted you to live, if you knew him do you think he'd let you cry and mop around? he died because he wanted you to survive, and if you're saying we didn't care about him you're fucking wrong, he's a little brother to us as much as you are to him, so better shut the fuck up, do not insult our resolve, because this is what he would've wanted for you. To live and for you to succeed to what you are born to do" Marwin said as he look at Markus intimidating him.

his body was frozen, not in fear but with intensity.

"So this is the power of the titan" he thought.

Noah pulled Marwin away and looked at Markus putting his hand in his shoulders.

"Markus, listen to me, do not let his death be in vain, he would've wanted you to prepare as soon as possible, when the time is right, we will celebrate his heroism, he's not a titan like us, he's not invincible he doesn't age slower, he's as much as human as the people down there. We are assigned to protect, but he is not less of a hero than that of his older brother, Curl is a hero and he will always will be, that guy he fought? it's an alpha Mist, it's Mordred a very powerful enemy even I couldn't defeat that thing, he knew that, he knew he's gonna die but he still did what he did because he believed in you, the future, our future depends on you now" Noah said

everyone looked at Markus.

"But can I really do this?" Markus asked as tears drop down his face.

"Nope, not yet" Amerie said

"what?" Markus said

"I said you we're chosen, I didn't said you're ready, anyway the plan is to teach you all the things we could for the time being, and to find your knights" Amerie said

"How about you guys? and Marwin? he's pretty powerful" Markus said

Marwin sat back in the chair, Noah punch him in the arm

"Do not fucking scare him again, that's not like you at all" Noah said

"I'm just making a point" Marwin said

"We? oh that's not how it works, we were blessed by a different leader, plus we're old" Marwin said

"Old? that's been bugging me since you show up, you were like in your teens when you fought and ended the war, but why do all of you look like you're in your mid 20's or something" Markus said

"Yeah, that's one of the benefit of being a titan, we don't age normally, we age 1/4 of that of normal Humans, once we're 25 that's it, it slows down from then, Marwin looked like he's in his late 20's but he's 52, and you can connect the dots from there" Amerie said

"Wait? why reveal my age and not yours" Marwin said

"Because I'm a woman" Amerie said.

"Amerie? Amerie, wait? Amy's mom?" Markus said

"Yes, nice to see you again Markus" Amerie said

"Oh yeah he used to be Amy's friend" Marwin said.

"Ehem" Joshua interrupted the discussion, he entered the room alone.

"Markus let me introduce you to another one of the Knights still alive, General Joshua Aquino" Agent Q said

"Markus let me introduce you to another one of the Knights still alive, General Joshua Aquino" Agent Q said

Joshua extended his arms towards Markus and said

"I'm sorry about Curl, we are deeply burdened by his untimely death, he's a hero powered or not he's still a hero just like his elder brother was" Joshua said as he shake Markus' hands

"Yes, a hero..." Markus said

"You brother believed in you, and we all shall believe in you as well, you'll someday lead the world's most strongest warriors, they might even be stronger than us" Joshua said

"but can I really do that?" Markus said

"The real question is are you willing to be that person" Amerie added.

the meeting adjourned, Amerie and Marwin showed Markus around the facility.

Marwin was walking far forward while Amerie was walking besides Markus.

Markus was looking at Marwin intensely, wondering what's with the aura around him.

"Are you curious? about him?" Amerie asked

"Kinda, I mean Curl didn't even stand a chance against that guy that attacked us but he just beat the crap out of that guy without breaking a sweat" Markus said

"I think that put a strain on him, he just made it look easy, but believe me it isn't that's the Kight's Second in Command" Amerie said

"You mean? the Cold Titan?" Markus said

"Yes" Amerie said

"But, the photos I've seen the videos I've seen he was always smiling, but since we got here I hardly saw him smile" Markus said

"Well, it's complicated, a lot has happened since the war ended" Amerie said

Amerie stops and put both of her hands on Markus' shoulder and looked at him with a smile on her face.

Markus then walked alongside Marwin and Amerie

Marwin stopped at the center of the ship, it has a huge statue of Leonel Aveno on the middle.

"Leonel? what kind of person is he?" Markus asked

"He's an idiot, he always laugh, he always do things out of a whim, he doesn't like planning he just crash head on, fight battles he cannot win, save everyone including those people that doesn't deserve saving" Marwin said as he lower his head in respect.

"But you see Markus, that's what made him Lord Arthur, because he doesn't choose the battles he fought, the people he saves or those he trust, he died protecting what's right, and that's the well being of humanity, he's not only a leader to us but a friend" Amerie said.

"That's the kind person you are, as told by your Brother"

Marwin fell into silent, as this conversation reminded him of a memory.

Los Baños, Laguna 2027

Marwin was walking with a young Curl with a sword in his back.

"Heeey! you're late! the food is ready!" Reian said

"You better hurry Curl, your ate Reian is waiting for you" Marwin said with a smile.

Reian welcomed Curl with a big hug, he's just 17 at that time.

"Hey! what happened to Curl's legs?" Reian said as she points out the bloodied bandage in Curl's legs.

"yeah one of the training drones exploded he got caught up" Marwin said

Reian then hit Marwin in the head with a stick and said

"What if he got hurt worse than this you idiot!" she said

Reian cared for Curl as if he was her little brother, everyone does.

Present day.

Markus was sitting in a table with Agent Q infront of her using the Holographic screen to explain Markus every details he needs to know.

"So? there are currently 5 titans still alive today?" Markus said

"Yes, you've met 4 of them, Amerie De Luna the Rose Guardian, Joshua Aquino The Silver Knight, Noah Bayana na Silent Titan and Marwin Kazumi Papagayo the Cold Titan, all of them aside from Marwin is currently the heads of three organizations that has one common goal that is to protect Humanity, Director Noah the head of Terrestrial Intervention Agency Network or Titan, General Joshua Aquino the Commander of the United Nations Armed Forces or Unaf and President Amerie De Luna the Head of United Nations Intelligence Office or Unio, it's been a decade since Marwin left and you should be thankful that the strongest Titan Knight has posponed his retirement just to teach you and as you already know he's also the teacher of Curl Aveno this organization's most skilled and strongest Agent" Agent Q said.

"Why am I in school again? I thought I'm here to learn how to be Lord Arthur?" Markus said visibly annoyed.

"In able to function well as the leader of the future team of most powerful warriors you need to know the history or rather the origin of your power, because not only are you going to be it's leader but also our king" Agent Q explained

"King?" Markus asked

Marwin then entered the room and and said

"King as in a ruler the one who rules his subjects and your subject is us and the people of Umahon, originally your power came from camelot not this ship the kingdom of Camelot from the Arthurian legend, the name Lord Arthur was derived from it's rightful ruler and the origin of the King's Authority which is your authority, King Arthur Pendragon, once we connected you to the will of Avalon, you'll be talking to his highness directly."

"His Highness?" Markus asked

"King Arthur, Markus the Titans have existed for a very long time, Titans have existed for as long as humanity has existed, we are here to protect what came before us, we are given this power to save people and that's what we will do no matter what the cost, your knights will be your family, you are lucky because you have us to teach you, unlike Leonel who has to learn everything by himself" Marwin explained.

as Marwin is explaining to Markus, he suddenly stopped talking, he then held to the scabbard and handle of his sword as if he's preparing to attack.

"Agent Q, alert the entire ship, we're going to be attacked for the next few minutes" Marwin said

"Understood Sir" Agent Q complied.

"Under attack? what Agent Q? you're just gonna listen to him without any proof?" Markus said

"I understand your scepticism, but Marwin is a hero, and he is never wrong" Agent Q said as he look at Marwin's back.

Marwin then walks beside Markus and put his hands on his shoulder.

"I'm not really keen on using this ability of mine because it's making my stomach hurt, but I need you to watch carefully, let this be your first lesson" Marwin said as they teleported in the deck of the ship.

Noah, Joshua and Amerie already there waiting.

"I thought you hate teleportation?" Joshua said

"Yeah I do, but I don't want to put a hole in Noah's ship" Marwin said.

Noah just look at Marwin unimpressed.

Marwin, Noah and Joshua flew away in the sky, while Amerie just stayed there by Markus' side.

"Protect the kid incase anything goes sideways" Noah said

"Sure, count on me" Amerie said

Markus looked at the sky seeing nothing but empty space.

Marwin as he floats, Markus looked at him as Marwin's Armor slowly appear in his body, his eyes changing colors.

Amerie puts her hand on Markus' shoulders and said

"Don't worry, Those three are the so called greatest leader of Humanity, that tittle isn't just a tittle they are deserving of them"

an armada of Mistenial Empire ships appeared out of nowhere.

"What the fuck? how?" Markus shouted.

"Yeah, get used to that" Amerie said

Humanity's greatest leaders, Lord Arthur's greatest warriors

Humanity's greatest leaders, Lord Arthur's greatest warriors.
