4. Heading to Archa! Trouble on Kem village

Our travelers, willing to go to archa to find the whereabouts of the Golden Angel, go to the train station of the central city, Furio, a little confused he is amazed to see the incredible bullet trains of the city, since he had never boarded one of them. "These trains look amazing" said Furio in amazement "yes, but they cost a kidney, literally, since they approved that as a payment method. the rulers are crazy "answered Uriel" and how are you going to pay this? We don't have a foundation or a corporation of scientists to pay for these trips, you know that none of us are wealthy "Naomi asked. "Furio, can we borrow some?" The sensei asked. Furio, who was confused, checks his wallet, he doesn't find anything in it "Damn, I don't have money, I don't even know why they gave me a wallet" Furio said. "Do not worry, in fact, you have a reserve of money that I have been saving for you, you see, your parents when saving humanity, they were rewarded with an economic support for life, support that your parents asked for, that they I would give it to you, however, as you were very young, they decided to take charge of everything, the food that I brought for you, I bought it with those savings. from time to time we would borrow a little for ourselves, "the sensei commented. "Oooh, do I really have that much savings? Well, I appreciate it very much, please continue to save them for me, I know you will use it wisely "replied Furio with great confidence. "HAVE WE SERIOUSLY BEEN LIVING WITH THIS DWARF'S MONEY !!!? I'm not going to allow myself to live with the skin of a little hero like him! " Naomi shouts exalted when she hears the news, she looks at Furio with disgust and says: "Don't even think I'm going to thank, I had what I had against my will, just knowing that disgusts me… keep walking, that the train he leaves "Furio gets a little annoyed and replies with humor" of course! You didn't say the same thing when you ate that roast beef last night! " "SHUT YOUR MOUTH" Naomi yelled. the sensei laughed with some discomfort "I think this will be a long trip hahahaha" said the sensei

Mr. Kato and the others get on the train, when boarding, the sensei shows a special pass and says "it's me, Furio and 3 Guys" The ticket guy looks astonished at Furio and happily says "Mr. Furio, it's an honor to have you on one of our trains, there is nothing better than having the son of our heroes, come in, you and all your friends board for free as many times as you like "Furio feels uncomfortable and says" Thank you very much, but I'm just Furio, treat me like any passenger, I feel uncomfortable when they highlight me, it's very nice anyway. "Our Travelers look for a seat and relax while they arrive at their destination.

Meanwhile ... ... in another place, a shadow portal opens and a man comes out of it, his gaze is aimless, fixed, as if he is controlled. "Sir, they are traveling, they took the train that passes near the city of archa, I suggest that we prepare as they can go to the temple of that place."

"Just as they told me" said another mysterious man "we must prevent them from destroying my pass to be able to leave here, which is to discover the secret of that temple and destroy it, but there is no need to fear, I have faced a man in Kem years ago, I left him with his pride so hurt, that he behaves like a tyrant, he will surely not let them advance now that he saw the signs in the stars, in case the plan fails, I have the ability to control minds of some people, I will be able to complicate the journey of that hero, and then finish him off "

During the train ride, The sensei is talking to the boys, they were all gathered talking about their mission and how they awakened their powers, when 2 questions arose. Uriel was the one who asked the sensei the first question:

"Sensei, I don't know if you noticed the moment Furio entered the simulation, the Imp behaved very strangely towards him, as if he had a grudge stored up, which is strange, he doesn't know him, do you have any idea if this is related to his parents? " The sensei, with a reaction of intrigue, looks at the ground and replies:

"It is the first time in a long time that I have seen an Imp reacting that way, as I investigated, they only react like this in 2 ways, when they see their natural enemies, or when someone important tries to prevent their plans. Furio's father told me that they react just like that when they looked at the golden angel, being their natural enemy, but strangely he reacted like that with them, they told me that it was possible because they were allied with the angels. It may have been inherited from Furio, since it, maybe is not possible that he is an angel, I haven't seen a sign of an angel's power on Him "

Furio hearing the conversation, looked down, thinking about everything he had heard. confused, he told himself: "my parents are the reazon for being in danger all the time, but what the hell did they do besides evacuating people? they interrupted their plans and now we are in greater danger. but why allow me to do this to me? " Furio stopped asking himself that question and decided to change the subject, looking at Mr. Kato's tablet.

"By the way, sensei, how did you find out everything on that tablet? as far as I know archa is a reconstruction of a pile of rubble. with so much collapse, it is impossible for them to find something so precise and valuable, it is like finding a gold ingot among an ancient stone town. " Asked Furio

"The fact that we were informed that there was a temple on a planet that nobody was supposed to have inhabited, was in itself surprising, it motivated us to investigate everything that had happened. It was before rebuilding archa. Investigating what happened, we were able to detect signs of an ancient temple, which was buried with the sand that the wind brought, a temple that, apparently, was there for a long time. It took us 2 years to finish the excavation and be able to see what it contained. The temple was empty, there were certain signs of collapse, as if it had been a battle. We were able to notice 7 pedestals around, in the center of the temple, but they did not attract as much attention as a wall. that wall was hollow, leaving only this tablet, I deduced that it was a fraction of that wall, and the rest was destroyed during the supposed battle. in it I managed to see the silhouette of an angel, it was similar to the one I saw in the first apocalypse, that was precisely what motivated me to take it and continue investigating. but although I know what it says, it seems that it is incomplete. maybe the golden angel in archa will help me find out if there is any other information we need to know, to stop the akuma king once and for all. " The sensei commented, after this story, Furio was surprised by what he had heard and says:

"A complete temple? Does it mean that people lived there even before it was discovered? I wonder what an angel was doing on a planet as deserted as this one at the time, and if we have something to do with all this, more than anything because of my parents. I hope to find the answer soon. He may even know where my parents are right now. " Right after that, a tremendous explosion occurs causing the train to derail.

The sensei notices and shouts quickly: "Uriel, quickly stop the train and cushion the fall"

Uriel hastily used his powers to create a wall of earth on the sides of the train, holding it up to prevent it from turning over, stopping instantly and saving the passengers. Furio looked out of the train and observed a military tank with a large-caliber weapon indicating that it had just fired. "Sensei, it seems I see a military army. They were the ones who shot, but the town looks a bit devastated, do they have something to do with this? " Asked Furio

"So we got to the village of Kem, and they are in big trouble. But this town never caused problems, I wonder what has caused so much disaster, well, we must continue "Said the sensei. Furio, outraged, says: "we cannot leave them like this, we have the skills to counteract, if the people are innocent we must save them" Said Furio, and Lilith continues saying: "if we can find the origin of all this maybe we can help him eradicate it"

"DON'T THEM TO MAKE ME WASTE MY TIME," Naomi said. "We are against the clock and we are not here to resolve political issues, let the government do that. Stop your stupid fantasies and let's continue, that there is something worse that is coming "Naomi finished saying.

Furio responds with some anger "But how many families are dying? How many of them should we let die? If this expands, we will not have people to save, and the same stupid wars that the books told will happen. Sensei, please, let's do something !! we can't allow it !! "

The sensei, after thinking, looks at Furio and says: "Well, let's go investigate, but they are on their own. consider it a training "

Furio and the others leave the train to investigate, they observed that there was a line of soliders guarding the entrance of the area, so they decided to surround the area in a place where they could not see them.

"Well, we must try to get past this barricade without being noticed," The sensei said. "I can lift the earth, so we will have way to continue" suggested Uriel "And so the guards see us and then annihilate us by the huge mound of earth that is formed, right? Great idea. I hate to admit it, but the only one who can make us enter without noise is the clown "Naomi replied in a very grumpy way. "You can do it?" asked the sensei

"I think so, I will try to propel myself with the air to make us go up, with the same impulse to cushion the fall, get together" said Furio. When everyone gets together, Furio concentrates his energy to gradually create the blow, it is difficult for him, since it is his first time creating air of such magnitude, but, although it was new to him, he succeeded. the blow lifted them neither too high nor too low from the barricade, to go unnoticed.

Arriving in Kem, they manage to see the devastated environment in which they found themselves, people locked in their homes by force, other people who were beaten for not obeying the soldiers and many areas governed by the military. Furio and the others ran to hide to remain unnoticed.

"It's a disaster, many people are being locked up and tortured against their will ... who was the monster that did this" said Furio "whoever he is, he must pay for what he did" exclaimed Uriel "but this town has more people than he exercised, why don't they get up to fight perhaps? "Asked lilith" it's pathetic, these inhabitants never knew what it is to defend themselves, because they believed that they did not need to, because they have what they deserve for being lazy "Naomi answered. "Unfortunately, my sister is right, they are a peaceful people, they never had in their minds to raise a rebellion or fight, they did not believe that it was necessary, and even that it goes against their principles, but ... what worries me is the military ... their uniforms are quite familiar to me. " Said the sensei.

Meanwhile a frightened voice is heard. "Mr. kato, is that you?" the sensei turns to see the surprised woman and the woman says: "I have heard about you, please come in, I will explain everything that has happened"

The boys enter the house, the appearance of it was like a certain ruin, due to the constant battles, but it looked safe to take refuge.

"Thank God I find them, the problem is huge, apparently the army has gone crazy and started attacking us, it is General Broker's army, since the whereabouts of his brother is unknown, he has been turning his care into a dictatorship"Said that woman.

"The General Broker? The boss in the blue beret? It is supposed to be an army to care for the innocent, not to mistreat them. something's wrong "Said the sensei. "So you know him" said Lilith "yes, he was a person with a big heart who would not dare to do this kind of thing, surely what they did to his brother was quite cruel, but I have known him since he was young, he is not at all vengeful." Said the sensei and continued asking the woman: "Is he in this place? he doesn't know where he's staying, maybe if I talk to him, we can work things out. "

"Yes, it is a few kilometers from here, in an old theater room with an eagle at the top of the building, it is said that it is always aware of every movement of the people" Said the woman, but the dialogue was interrupted by some soldiers.

Sheltering foreigners huh? you can know how the hell they entered this town "said the soldier very authoritatively

"Sir, please do not throw them out, they are my distant relatives, they wanted to visit me, allow them to stay at least one night" Said the woman with concern. The soldiers acted more rudely and shouted "shut your mouth! At no time do we ask for your opinion, they also know that no one can enter without the permission of commander Broker "After that, the soldier hits the woman with force, the sensei manages to catch her before she falls to the ground. But Furio, looking at the scene, couldn't allow that kind of injustice to happen.

"Don't you dare lay a hand on him! I'm sure you're not capable of hitting me, you Insolent!" Yelled Furio with some pride. Naomi angrily says: "We were supposed to be under cover, if you do a little stupid, you're going to expose us idiot!"

The soldiers start laughing and say: "HAHAHAHA a little dwarf like you is threatening a platoon of 6 men armed to the teeth? friend you hit your head when you were a child or something like that, let me see if you have a tail, HAHAHAHAHA "the soldier points the gun at Furio directly to his head" if that is what you want, then get ready to be eradicated "

What the soldier did not count on is that Furio was no longer afraid, for a moment he put aside the danger in front of him and concentrated on ending those conceited ones. Furio without thinking, was charging energy in his fist and released a light blast of air, which knocked out 3 of the 6 men who were at the entrance of the house. "I told them that they would not dare to touch me" said Furio with a smile.

"Damn, to hell surprise factor, Well done hero, now the other soldiers reported what happened to their commander and more will come here, learn a little stealth!" Naomi said. "There is no other choice, we must fight. Let's try to defend the woman, Furio I will stay with you, as long as you keep around the woman "Lilith said.

"With ... with you? sure "said Furio shy. "You don't give me orders, you four eyes," Naomi said, but she stayed in position despite that.

Upon seeing the soldiers coming, Naomi creates a fire barrier using one of the candles that the house had to prevent more soldiers from passing by and thus be able to face those who were in the area. Meanwhile, inside a theater, a soldier was running towards the center of it. "Sir, they report that 5 people entered without authorization, they are too strong, our men try to stop them, apparently they manage to manipulate the elements in some way" A dark-looking man, short hair and a military uniform, looks at his comrade and tells him: "do they handle elements? It must be sensei kato, but, ¿how he managed to get more people to handle elements?… this could be a threat to our order! Tell them to resist, I want to see personally what happens. " "But sir, they are too strong, you cannot risk it," said the soldier. the man looks at a strange weapon and says to the soldier "don't worry cadet, I know how to deal with these things" The soldier, more confident, says "as you order ... Commander Broker"

Commander Broker is about to go to our heroes, they will be able to find out what happens in this once peaceful town, They will continue fighting, even if they do not fully dominate the elements.
