2 The Crossing (1/2)

And so, our hero died, just as he lived with a bang. But science is a mysterious thing, after all magic is just an advanced science and an advanced science is magic.

When he died, he destroyed a large number of psionic lifeforms, coupled with the formation of a black-hole the residual energy opened a gateway. A tiny gateway just enough for a grain of sand to escape or a soul…

And that is what happened Leon's soul was sucked trough the hole in the fabric of reality. Well not just him but Hades as well. You see warminds were special AI created to fight for eternity to evolve and help humanity in their time of need.

And for that, using psionics and science they created a parasite to leech power from their host to exist. In essence making them a cripple in some ways, in others making them invincible.

In the tear of reality.

An entry must have and exit. When an entry and an exit pair together they form a tunnel, or better yet a corridor protected from the danger of universe crossing 2 orbs of light were traveling orbiting each other. Quite beautiful I might say, if I didn't know what they were.

One a child that was shunned with the need to prove himself shining with a light so black that it could devour anything, and the other… well let's just say that the name Hades is appropriate.

The first to wake was Hades, after all the shock for a warmind is lesser than that of a flesh and blood being.

'Wh.a…t, what happened.' Conscience was returning to Hades slow, as and undead rising for the first time from the grave, groggy and disoriented.

'The battle, the explosion I…. remember, but where are am I.' Immediately Hades looked around but all he could see is light so powerful but as the same time darkness battling the light. And then he sensed his friend, his psionic print so powerful, radiating power and presence like a beacon.

Immediately Hades made his mind and tried to approach Leon, but as much effort he made he couldn't get close to him, it was like moving through sand and water mixed together. It didn't help that Leon was pulsating waves of power and the walls of the corridor was trying to suck him to them.

'How can I get to him, I can't…. once more I am powerless.' A feeling of resentment and hopelessness started to creep into Hades mind.

And so, he decided to wait, time was irrelevant he didn't know how long passed an hour, a year, an eon? He didn't know. What he did know was that he needed to do everything to get to Leon, after all he was a parasite, he needed energy to survive.

Hades tried everything but nothing worked, he was dwindling both in power and in mind slowly wasting away. He continued until something happened. Leon's orb stopped pushing instead a powerful suction force erupted from him. Every particle of light and energy was being concentrated like a preparation you can say.

But for Hades that was even worse, now he was between 2 powerful suction forces Leon's and the corridor walls. He was being disintegrated bit by bit. So sad to see something like that, no one deserves that.
