48.) It All Started 3 Months Ago. Pt 2.

The events of the Dazzle Massacre have left a gashing scar within the Light Clan. A huge ray of hope and a light to brighten the path had been taken from them in cold blood. Now corruption grows as the houses and families that guard the sectors are being attacked for giving hope of benevolence. The lead in this currently was the House of Aurora. They, too, were also people who supported Dante and his mission of reformation. The leader, Berixan Aurora, was a former Lanthermine Luum who had been a co-captain with Meachie. And before then, he was a conqueror who helped the Light Clan go from an Empire to a Clan. He now does battle against his old partner in crime. A battle for control has waged on for a whole two months now. 

Gaia: "Hold up hold up…" Berixan is even stronger than I am currently, standing proudly at a 45 on the scale. Meachie is only a 35, right? There's no way he can take on someone who can nearly destroy a full sized multiverse?"

Shiishii: "Yeah."

Dante: "Well mates, Meachie was a 35 a month before this event. He began training again once he found out Berixan would be his opponent. But that's too short of time to get that far, and Luums don't have a time nor space manipulator who could create a dimension for him to train in. I'd say he was never a 35 to begin with. Or else how would he have beaten Sir Tats?"

Gaia: "Ah, that makes a lot of sense. So Meachie is now above me as well… or maybe he always was. No matter, not far enough ahead to ensure a definite win with my growth being as great as it is. But please do continue."

Dante: "Hm hm hmmm! Of course, Lady Gaia. So, at the start of the war, the Luums tried to pull another raid with their new forces. They now run with twelve instead of ten. And they all seem to be near where Meachie was three months ago. The battle with the Dazzles seems to have given the King of Lanthermines a wake-up call."

2 Months Earlier…

The house of Aurora was busy cleaning the castle after a failed attempt to raid them from the 12 Luums. There were very few casualties thanks to Berixan and his personally selected and trained guard, The Gilded Borealis. They were all actually near Berixan in skill and strength. He made sure to train them until they were all equal to him. Then, they trained as equals, with Berixan being the most potent warrior. They were doing a walkthrough on the castle and making sure everyone was okay. 

Berixan: "Yo… Mackey, my son. What has the family been doing since our little skirmish with Meachie and Co?"

Mackey: "They're all good, Father. Mom is taking a shower while Markee is busy training his skills. Seems to be taking the loss to the White Luum very hard. But other than that everything's good. Including the top sector of the castle where our keep is."

Berixan: "Well, thank youuu, my boyyy! That saves us time on having to check the top floor for any casualties or blemishes to the grounds. Good, good."

Mackey was almost an exact replica of his father. From the hazel wide eyes to their pale rainbowish skin that naturally emits light. Their hair was cocaine white and spiked up in a wavy style. Berixan was a little taller at a height of 6'4. Mackey was only 5'11. They were both clad in Red Armor with an Aurora Borealis insignia plastered on their chest. Their armor almost looked demonic with the jagged shape and sharpened points on the corners of the faulds and pauldrons. Fully armored and all red, They were seen as some of the most gruesome fighters in the Light Clan right next to the Luums. 

Mackey: "Indeed, father. Meriduff over here told me earlier that our main concern may be the bottom floor where they chose to attack first. I wouldn't be surprised if it's the only floor we truly have to worry about."

Berixan: "That's even better! But I will ask, Meriduff? What exactly happened to our lowest floor?"

Meriduff: "Well, sir, you should know that most of our casualties took place there. Children were beheaded, and some laid dead on the floor with their entrails splattered and mushed to the wall. There were few who were completely destroyed and some who were dismembered. It's quite the shit show."

Meriduff was a slender woman with long golden hair and white eyes. Her eyebrows were thin yet perfectly edged and arched. Her lips were full and always glistened with her white gloss. Her outfit and armor were similar to Berixan and Mackey's, but her left arm only sported a glove. No gauntlet armor on the sleeve or even a pauldron. It's just a glove and tattoo of the Grand Star. She also sported a tiara on her head that turns into a halo during combat. 

Berixan: "Mhm… should be easy to fix… any of our buildings damaged with the deaths of our beloved?"

Meriduff: "From what we know… no sir. But we could expect a few holes after all." 

Berixan: "Huh… alright. Hey Neezah and Bluumen?"

Neezah: "Yes, Berixan?"

Bluumen: "What do ya need cap'n?

Berixan: "Ha! Well, first off, thank you for coming from Annihilo Sect so quickly. We really need all troops right now."

Neezah: "No big deal, Berixan. Zenki understood immediately and told us to take care of this. So we're here."

Bluumen: "Yyyeah, man. Whatcha need us to do cap'n?"

Berixan: "I'll need the both of you to go check the lower levels for those that need assistance. I'll be down there shortly."

Neezah & Bluumen: "Yessir!!" *Fwip* *Fwip* 

Neezah and Bluumen both are apart of the same group that Kishin, Zenki, ZeeArc, Amir, and a few other great individuals are from. They were both dressed in the new attire that was given to the group a bit after Shiishii's revival. Black long coats with fur collars, arm cuffs, and at the tail of the coat. They had designer pockets on the left side of the chest. With the insignia for Annihilo on their backs. Neezah wears baggy jogger style pants. Her hair was black on the right side and white on the left. It was styled in twin tails with two looping bangs that tucked behind her ear. Her eyes were bright orange and pretty big in size. Her lips were full, and her body had an hourglass shape. She had 2 inch yin-yang earrings, and her skin was a bright orange-ish white. Bluumen wore fitted combat pants with three pockets going down the left leg. He had a large chain hanging from the right side of his hip. He was slender yet tone and built. His hair was golden as well and in a bun. His eyes were royal blue and sharp with a glare of uninterest. His skin was pale with a rainbow hue. He wore a single, hanging diamond earring on his left ear. 

Berixan: "Good. Now… you two follow me to my keep. I have a task your sister will need help with, son."

Mackey: "Sounds good, dad, let's go."

Meriduff: "Indeed."

As Neezah and Bluumen head down to the lower levels to assist and help out. Berixan takes his son and Meriduff to his keep to assist his daughter in a certain… task.

Berixan: *Pew* "Hm."

Mackey: *Pew* ...

Meriduff: *Pew* "Is this it, sir?"

Berixan: "Yes, this is it. Unlike most castles… my keep is further in than my throne room. All for the sake of a sudden raid…. Now let's enter you two." *Grip* *He twists the doorknob and opens the door to reveal a 200 sq ft room* 

Meriduff: "So this us your legendary keep? *Whistle* It's great, sir." 

Mackey: "Indeed."  

The three walk into the room and take their seats at the round table in the center of the room. It was there that they found Mackey's older sister, Maeli, and a few papers as well. 

Mackey: "So… *sit* What's all this dad?"

Berixan: "These are a few plans we've been scheming in order to reform the clan. With Dante's help, we've made quite the scheme, and I believe it's a sure plan."

Mackey: "Oh? Is this true, sis?"

Maeli: "Yes, little brother, it's true. We can bring true equality and prosperity back into our home with this plan right here. *smack* *she slams her hand atop a pile of papers with drafts on them* It can… And will work. We just have to beat the Lanthermines and the Lumiairess, of course."

Meriduff: "We Gilded Borealis" will do just that. As long as we all play our parts…" 

Berixan: "We can prevail."

Mackey: "Heh… nice!"

Maeli: "Indeed, brother. With the rest of the Borealis' focusing on repairs. We can get ahead and finish this. Dante has his hands full, so it's up to us."

Berixan: "Yes, but that should be easy with all that we have already." 

Meriduff: "Alright then… where do we start?"

Mackey: "Actually. Tell us what you have already."

Meriduff: *snap* "Yeah that."

Maeli: "The basis will start with getting rid of laws that have made it ok for the high class to dictate and harass the lower classes. We also will be making laws to help move forward with reformation."

Mackey: "Ok, ok. What else?"

Berixan: "We also chose to follow suit on what the Dazzles were going to do and weed out the corrupted. Those who don't reform will be killed. No exceptions." 

Meriduff: "It's only right. The few do not compare to the many. Our focus is the clan, then the people."

Maeli: "Indeed." 

Berixan: "Alright then. We can at least start on how to smoothen this out further and make it to where it works. With a near zero chance of failing. Our home needs it badly."

Mackey: "Alright, well… I do have an idea. We should have a rep for every family there is out there. Not just our most pristine ones, but the ones that are lacking as well. We need to help all, but we also have tabs on each family so that we can stop any sign of corruption."

Berixan: "Hmm… that's pretty sound, but I also would like to know… What if the reps were to be the ones corrupted?"

Maeli: "I was wondering that as well, brother."

Mackey: "Ah…" That's quite simple, sister and dad. We simply send one of our more powerful members to monitor the many reps. If anything fishy is going on, they'll contact us and let us know. We'll go and cleanse the corruption before it gets too far."

Meriduff: "Doesn't sound bad at all, sir."

Berixan: "Not at all, Meriduff, not at all. Hmmph! Write that down, sweetie."

Maeli: "Yes, father."

Berixan: "Help her out, son."

Mackey: "Right. *He walks over and sits next to Maeli. The two immediately begin writing down the plans* 

Berixan: "Alright… (Good, good. With all this, we might be able to truly pull it all off. Now all we need to do is - *Ffwingg* Hm?!" *He stares at the ceiling in the northern direction* 

Mackey: (Dad activated Mental Zenchi? Is it…) 

Maeli: "Mhm…" 

Berixan: "Seems… we've got company."

Mackey: "Is it him again?"

Maeli: "Yeah… I just peeped with my Zenchi."

Mackey: …

Meriduff: "I'll gather our people." *FWIP* 

Berixan: "So the 12 bitches are back aye? Fine… NO ONE goes after Meachie, he's all mine. Go get your mother, kids. I'll cut them off."

Mackey and Maeli: "Roger, father!" *FWIP* *FWIP* 

Berixan: "Heh! Let's get it Meachie!" *Fwip* 

Berixan flashes straight out of the castle as a small battalion follows behind. The alarms within the castle simg loudly as all civilian class gods enter the safety bunkers made of Berixan and his family's essence. His children dash straight for the castle's main hall, where their mother was getting prepared for battle. 

Maeli: "You're ready mother?"

Lady Aurorin: "Yes… let me get my halo and we can head out."

Mackey: "Perfect, Lady Meriduff is already gathering the Borealis'. Let's get these assholes mum."

Lady Aurorin: "Let's kick their ausses children." 

Maeli & Mackey: "Hell yea!!!"

All three dashed out of the castle as the remaining eight Borealis' follow behind them.

Maeli: "How in the hell?"

Mackey: "You've… gotta be fockin' kiddin' me…"

Meriduff: … *Her face was stuck in "awe"*

Lady Aurorin: "Do… NOT FALTER!"

Maeli: "R-Right… (Easier said than done, mother!)

Mackey: "Tch! Easy for you to say." *His face becomes agitated* 

Meriduff: "She's right! Neezah, Bluumen, Markee and everyone else! Let's go!!!"

Borealis': "RAAAAAAAGGGH!!!"

Before them… stood a gigantic Lumiya, Wyvern beast. It was more than 100 feet long and its wingspan was twice as large. The beast had a head the shape of a classic dragon with shining white horns sticking out the front of its head in short fashion, curled upwards. As well as in the back, there were two sticking out of each socket towards the back ends of its head. To equal a total of four back horns that were 20 feet each. The legs were muscular as who knows what and the claws were 15 feet long each. The body looked as if it were hardened with a body armor, bone protruding from the outer thighs. As well as the middle of its shins, its entire chest, the tip of the tail and between its eyes. The wings were of a flame pattern and its entire body was white while the hardened pieces were black. A truly massive beast!

Berixan: "I see you all needed some extra help. That's alright, you seem to have forgotten my study since I haven't used it since mastering it three thousand years ago."

Present Day

Shiishii: "Wait a second… they say Berixan expanded the clan using beasts… a HUGE army of beasts… That was a DAMN STUDY!?!?"

Dante: "Yessir, mate! It's a unique class but his crazy aus combined two of the copies for extra potency. So there's two left out there and he's already mastered his."

Gaia: "Hmm… seems Berixan had a counter for old Meachie then?"

Dante: "Yeah… but it wasn't a freshly made beast. He had created a baby beast made of a captured adaption study. It was a wingless brute wyvern he taught how to fly using its essence as its only tool. He raised it and taught it everything and even basically turned it into a god through and through. He even fed it nothing but light particles so it could learn to naturally absorb and assimilate it. The beast has gotten so good that it's now become even stronger than Berixan. It's literally no different than a god honestly. A magenta colored lion-rhino with dragon scales. That's what that beast looked like"

Shiishii: "Woooah that's some beast. So… I'm guessing Meachie and Berixan went head to head yet again?" *Gulp* *gulp*

Dante: "Yes, both forces went at each other full throttle. The crazy thing is…. Meachie and his crew only waited 3 days before coming back… it was quite strange."

 The battle between Berixan and Meachie raged ferociously as neither gave an inch, nor did their subordinates. The Luums went against the Borealis' and Lady Aurorin at full force. Summoning forth their full arsenal of studies as they desperately try and gain an upper hand.

Berixan: *FwiTING* *Ting* "Ho?? So, why come back so damn soon after failing to raid us the first time?"

Meachie: "Chh! Well, if you must know. Our commander hates failing and wouldn't accept that we couldn't break through. So here we are again." *Fwip* *Fwup* *TING* *A large backslash sends Berixan back a few meters*

Berixan: "Hm… I just don't get it."

Meachie: "Hm?"

Berixan: "You support this Cause, yet you still serve them. That's aus backward!" *Swoosh* *PRCH* *PSH* *Meachie is knocked back a few feet from a left hook to his right cheek* 

Meachie: "Oof! Tch… well if it's you, then. I guess I can tell you. Upon being corrupted by whatever force may be behind it, we started to notice him and his family's strange behavior. When the first killings took place and we weren't ordered to handle it and instead were ordered to stay put. That's when we knew something was wrong and were going to go to Dante, but… the unthinkable happened."

Berixan: "Huh?"

Meachie: "The King took our family's hostage with threats of death if we didn't comply. So here… WE ARE!!!" *he says with a cold lifeless glare within his eyes* *FWIP* 

Berixan: "Are you serious!? *Prch* Doh!!" 

Meachie blitzes Berixan and knocks him into a nearby planet. He dashes after Berixan at speeds more than 30x that of light.

Berixan: (So he's being held hostage huh?) *SMASH* *He bends his knees as he lands hard into a white mountain range.* "I'm sorry to hear it But I have to protect mine!"

Meachie: "As do I… Departiclization!"

Berixan: "Beast Summoning; Sword: Horn of the Particle Drake!"

Their attacks clash, and the entire cluster of 20 universes within the southern quadrant was blown apart. Every molecule and particle within its ranged existence was completely erased from their full power clash. The castle was protected by a blessing from the founder of their clan, a being far beyond even the three kings combined. Their subordinates combine their efforts to survive the blow as they continue to charge one another. Lady Aurorin takes on the Gold and Silver Luums. She had been controlling the course of the battle the entire time. Using her territory-birthright and advanced levels of Zenchi. 

Lady Aurorin: "It seems you little shits did not heed my warning. This… *Glare* Is. My. Territory!" *Her face turns cold, and her killing intent rises greatly* 

Gold Luum: "Damn!"

Silver Luum: "She's… strong as hell!"

Gaia: "Hm… so their battle was actually heated this time around. How long did it last?"

Dante: "It lasted for about a day before the Luums had to retreat… but that wasn't the end of things."

Shiishii: "What… Do you mean?"

Dante: "It was about… maybe two weeks after the battle they'd lost. The Luums descended upon the lower and mid sections of the clan where the less fortunate reside."

Gaia: "Tch… (Those visions I saw of many lives disappearing from a single spot… were here. A massive serial massacre series.)

Shiishii: "Damn…"

Dante: "And they tore. Them… TO SHREDS. Me, the Lyster twins, and their family as well as the Aurora house and two others. We all worked together to push them back. I'd say… "Yeah, without a doubt, the third month was definitely the worst." *Glare*

With the victories of the Aurora family, the Luums were sent on a new mission. To destroy the lesser parts of the clan and rid themselves of the weak. The tales of the third month begin.
