Chapter13: Returned: Aro

Aro took his stride through the gaps between the white marble pillars in a successful attempt to avoid everyone as he entered the back chambers.

Spiralling down the steps into the basement, flash backs began to hit Aro of when he was tortured in the exact spot he was heading.

But to his surprise it was not blood, metal tables or chains hanging from the walls, but instead a welcoming candle lit environment with rucksack beds and clay pots of water.

The injured students, homeless and one other all resided there...

That one other is a kiren warrior.

Aro caught in a state of shock shouted "Sorin?".

The unknown kiren turned around standing up from his makeshift bed as he spoke "it's good to see a familiar face... Aro".

Sorin edged ever closer to his former ally and whispered "although it is not as bad as I thought it would be I still don't know where the humans will side in a few years, so lets keep this reunion to ourselves".

And so the two kiren who unexpectedly encountered each other once again fled the temple heading far into the outskirts.

Continuing until a ravine stopped them in their tracks, in which Sorin said his first words since leaving "there's a lot you should know Aro".

Caught in worry Aro braced himself as he had never known the young recruit to be so serious that was before now that is.

The wind blew past them all carrying the sand into a storm until Aro's silence was broken by Sorin's next words.

"Where to begin?, well I guess there is no making it sound good or justified so here it goes Kurin is dead, he was killed by Kray".

Aro dropped to his knees but this did not put any stop to Sorin's words as he continued "the kiren race as a whole in now aligned with the zeons named Genshi and Kenta or as you probably know them the warrior twins, and I have left the musenshi and now reside as one of Kenta's students".

Aro unable to make any words and on the verge of fainting, this forced Sorin to speak his voice soft and his body relaxed "I know it is a lot to take in, Kurin's death shocked me too but I was there to see it, and now even with the alliance I cant go back home until I've gained enough strength to kill Kray myself".

Aro finally speaks but remains on his knees "you know I won't help you in the killing of our former master but I also can't work under him either, so for now I won't tell Keldar of what you just declared to me young warrior".

Sorin sat down casually placing him along side Aro and said "thanks I guess you have every right to tell Keldar, what was I thinking saying all that".

Aro's tone soon shifted into anger as he demanded "Sorin never go back on anything you say so seriously, I truly believe you have the potential to rival Kray one day but there is no telling which side I will be on then so just be careful who you tell".

Sorin once again thanked his friend and mentor Aro, which was followed with a question "So what will you do now?, as for me I plan to stay with Kenta and learn how to use all the energy that resides within me".

Aro gave him an answer rather quickly but Sorin knew it was the full truth "as for now I also plan to stay on earth and build a settlement for our people, but I must also kill Maro he has made too many mistakes to just be forgiven so we share a goal..., that is in the destruction of the red empire".

Sorin responded as he sprung up and in a flash he was back on his feet "well then I guess we can leave the complicated stuff for the future then Aro".

The two former team mates grasped each others hands as they formed a temporary alliance.

Chapter12.2: Returned: Kenta

Kibar suddenly left a crater in the barren ground on earth's surface.

Following this was a enormous flash of a vibrant green light.

Rushing to Hikaru's shelter he placed Kenta onto a makeshift table clearing everything off the top and smashing almost everything in the room.

Pieces of pottery scattered all over the shelter's floor, the smaller pieces digging into the beast's feet.

But Kenta was left unconscious even with Kibar doing everything he possibly could.

And just before trying to infuse his own life span into his wounded father Kibar's body overloaded shooting overload energy out into the room and blasting Kibar at least three miles out of the shelter.

But to Kibar's surprise a crimson red light expanded from the shelter's opening.

Kenta had miraculously healed his wounds, awoken from the blast of energy Kenta was now conscious, alive and well, not a single scratch resided on the brutal warrior's body.

Kibar leapt into the shelter and at the sight of his father grabbed hold of the wall in a effort to combat the shock which just hit him, which the sand coloured stone collapsed in his grasp.

Kenta his voice carrying his curiosity across as he questioned "so son it was you who just made that blast now?".

Kibar's face turned cold almost as if was just dealt a fatal blow, as he answered he feared what the brutal warrior's reaction may be "yes it was father".

Kenta's face turned into the opposite of what was expected, he was proud as he claimed "that's great my son!, I just fought against someone who was even stronger then me and they also possessed this power, you know what that means right?, you too could surpass me".

The cave was left quiet at this claim as it is almost unbelievable to think the untamed beast could ever rival such power.

Kibar was left speechless at the thought of such power but his moment was interrupted.

As Hikaru appeared to see that the brutal warrior was alive and well.

Without giving any chance for Hikaru to speak Kenta asked "so may I ask something of you Hikaru?".

Hikaru who had seemed to not fully release himself of his temporary role looked towards Kenta in approval.

With this the warrior twin Kenta spoke once more "go find my son and once you do return here".
