Zodiac knights

A long time ago, there was perfect harmony on earth and all the races lived together. one day, the demon race suddenly attacked the other races, the war raged on for a very long time with the demon race holding the lead in the war. the human race was completely helpless and couldn’t be of any meaningful help in the war. just when the humans were pushed to a corner and the fate of their race was bleak, they discovered a sacred treasure. the titans tusk. with this sacred treasure, they managed to seal the demon race but a lot of damage had already been done. a few years after sealing the demons, humans realized that due to their inexperience with the titans tusk, they had leaked a deadly energy that fed on negative emotions, converting this negative emotions to extremely powerful and ruthless beasts that now posed a really serious problem to the survival of humanity. humans had eventually evolved to possess extremely powerful and rare bloodline abilities, but they couldn’t be sure if it was really a blessing. the beasts created from humans negative emotions also had the bloodline ability of humans. living in immense fear, humans kicked out every other race that was around them and they built an energy dome around themselves to protect themselves from both the beasts and any other race that might decide to go crazy. in this present time, there is an illusion of peace that has lasted for quite a long time, little will the humans find out that the sacred treasure protecting them had weakened and could no longer hold the seal nor energy dome. they discover that they have only a month before the sacred treasure finally gives in. so, in a month, they will have to battle the demons and the beasts, at the same time. It was either they found a way to go around this, or they risked exstinction because they were never going to win the war.

disagreement

Tega stared at a notice board that was hung on a tree.

Huh? We're divided into teams of four?

Let's see…where's my Team?

Tega, Oliver Edward, Lena Steward and Scott Owen.

Tega frowned. Huh? Just Tega? How come they didn't put my surname?

Tega stared at the information again.

What sort of luck is this? Me and Oliver are in the same Team? And Master Scott too?

The news of the Sacred treasure's shutdown in thirty two days had not yet been spread to the public, the Golden Zodiac knights were still in a meeting with the Royal family and soon, they were going to come to an agreement on how to handle the problem at hand.

This notice board was only put out here two days ago, but it was only discovered by the new Zodiac Knights today. And sooner than later, everything was bound to change.

They were no longer going to follow the previous path that the Golden Zodiac knights had set out for them.

The Golden Zodiac Knights had come to terms with the fact that humanity won's live under the dome forever, so they had grouped everyone in teams and they were supposed to go on an expedition outside the dome in five days. They had to start their first step in seizing the sacred treasures of all the races so that the dark energy turning negative emotions into beasts would be expelled.

But to where? The Sacred treasure can't just make the Energy to disappear, it had to be sent somewhere, maybe to an alternate universe or so. But they didn't care, they had suffered so much and it doesn't matter if they sent the energy to an another universe. They just had to send it out of earth and away from their universe. But that won't really solve their problems, it was only a matter of time before they realized that they had to solve their problems and not pushing it off to someone else.

After recounting the information on the board to Oliver.

Lena steward? Who's that?

Tega shrugged. Dunno, I've never heard of her name before.

Oliver glanced at Tega. Maybe we should go find her?

Tega nodded. Sure, we're free after all.

Tega and Oliver had walked aimlessly for about two hours when Oliver decided to say the thing that had silently been on both of therm's mind.

So…where are we going to?

Tega slapped his forehead. Aww man…I've been thinking the same thing for an hour now.

Oliver suddenly stopped. Tega turned around. What's the problem?

Oliver put his hands across his lips to gesture for him to be silent.

Oliver silently walked into an alley, Tega following behind.

Entering the alley, Oliver's mouth dropped open in surprise. Woah…they're such a massive space in here for an alley, how are these camps even built?

Shhh…shut it, dimwit! Oliver said in a muffled voice.

He had sensed something earlier, but Tega had been talking so he didn't notice the same thing, because of this, Tega wasn't being as cautious as Oliver was.

Just a little distance away, three boys surrounded one girl. They were seemingly trying to molest her, but the girl was vehemently against it and resisted their touch.

Let me go! The girl shouted as she slapped the hand of one of the boys who tried to grope her.

The first boy flashed a wicked smile at her.

Okay now…beauty. Don't be so aggressive, it doesn't suit you. We only want have a taste of Jerusalem, I promise it won't hurt.

You disgusting…!! The girl was irritated so much that she didn't know what to say so she just ended her statement there.

How do you guys dare to do such an atrocious thing in the knights camp!? Don't you fear you would be caught and be punished severely!? The girl ranted, in a vain attempt to dissuade them.

But the boss in between their legs had been stirred up, then nothing else mattered, they must enter Jerusalem.

Another boy laughed. Penalty, you say? That only applies if we're caught, but we won't be caught, Right? Right?

The boy tried to grope her as he spoke, but the girl slapped his hand.

Don't touch me!

Okay now, lady. It's starting to get annoying, just let me into Jerusalem!!

The Girl stared at him in horror, then she suddenly stepped backwards and stomped on the floor and the earth quickly divided, bits of rocks flying upwards and she was quick to direct it towards the bits who were keen on going to Jerusalem.

Tega was a bit enthralled by her excellent control of her abilities and the ease of which she carried them out.

Why Oliver could only think about one thing. J-Jerusalem? Who ever gave it that name?

You think she's got her own domain? Tega asked.

Oliver shrugged. Probably, she's got a magnificent control of her bloodline ability.

One of the boys immediately created shields out of water and the girl's rocks could only sink into the water, coming to a forceful stop.

The boy laughed loudly. Don't forget, lady. You attacked first!

As he spoke, he sent a wave of water surging towards her, the girl stepped backwards, avoiding the dangerous water that had a cutting edge.

The earth suddenly divided and the water fell into it, the earth opened up behind the girl and the water came out of it, striking her.

Woah…that's a pretty good combo…

The boy sent another water ball flying towards her, the water ball grew and took the form of a big whale.

The whale had covered everywhere, and there was no space for the girl to run, instead, she created an earth shield.

Not so fast! The last boy shouted, using his air to strike her shield repeatedly, wearing it.

The shield broke the moment it came in contact with the water whale and the attack went on to engulf the girl.

Ahhh!!

The girl let out a loud scream before she fell to the floor, unmoving.

The first boy stared at her peacefully. You should have just let us enter Jerusalem…

He licked his lips as he slowly advanced towards the girl.

Oliver shook his head. What a pity…we better go.

Tega nodded. Right.

Tega and Oliver moved at the same time, but surprisingly, they moved in different directions.

Noticing this, they both stopped, and stared at each other.

Oliver spoke first. Where do you think you're going?

Tega frowned, he was certainly displeased by what He thought

Oliver was about to do.

Tega spoke in a steady voice. I should be the one asking you that, where do you think you're going?

Oliver frowned. I'm leaving, obviously.

Tega raised a brow, he was starting to get upset. So you will just leave her there?

Oliver looked him in the eye as he spoke. It's not like she's my sister, I don't see any reason why I can't.

Tega didn't break their eye contact. Let's go, we will save her.

Oliver shook his head. No, you will save her, count me out of it.

Oliver turned around to leave but Tega grabbed onto his hand.

Oliver frowned as he stared at Tega's grip on his hand. Let go.

Tega further tightened his grip. You're coming with me, we'll save her together.

Tzz!

Tzz!

Lightning flashed around Oliver as his gaze intensified.

But Tega wouldn't give in, this wasn't like other times and it was a serious matter than involved a human.

Tega's grip on Oliver's hand suddenly started picking temperature. It started getting very hot until it became uncomfortable.

Something had to be done, else a big fight was about to ensue between these two.
