Chapter 66
The soldier blocks for a moment, is it real? Did we actually find what the 'Old One' needs? He almost jumps up from the joy. He hurriedly screams;
"Commander, we found it. We have a Positive Result. This beast is what we need. It is Pregnant."
All stop what they are doing not believing what they heard. Including the Commander, but they see the joy on the screaming and running soldier. Then they also start screaming towards the sky, even if there is no sky. 'We did it, we found it. Now the 'Old One' can finish his advancement.'
Then the Commander wakes up and says;
"Prepare to go home soldiers, we will be received as heroes. Make sure that nothing goes wrong, NOTHING."
The Soldiers start making a circle around the beast, ready to protect it even against a horde of monster. Now nothing and no one will touch this beast again until they are home.
The Celestials have searched for over a hundred thousand years for this beast, 'A Pregnant Beast'. Thousands of their brethren have died until now to search for it. One time they even were on the point to be invaded by the 'Beasts from the Unknown', if the 'Old One' wouldn't have come out of his meditation, they would've have lost their Dimension.
But now is all in the past, they have found it. Now the 'Old One' will Advance and receive a new lease on life. He will become more powerful than all the Celestials combined. He will be able to conquer even the 'Unknown'. Not to talk about something small like Ark Ember, he will be dead the moment they won't have to worry about the 'Unknown'.
The commander takes out from his space ring a white ball that shines, but he holds it in his hands like it's made of fragile crystals. This ball is given by the 'Old One' personally, one to every Commander, especially for this occasion. He throws it over the body, and the light from the ball spreads all over it, then the body changes to small ball of lights that goes back inside the ball, in a few seconds the entire body of the beast is inside the ball. This Ball is special because not only dead bodies can get inside, but also alive ones, so this is crucial for the mission.
When all is done, they start to head back to their home. The commander raises his right hand and on his wrist is a tattoo like bracelet, when he raises his hand a hologram screen appears in the air in front of it. Then he calls the center tower and says;
"Here is Jasper, we are coming home. And we come with gifts. We found a 'Positive Result'."
The guy from the other side is shocked, is like he forgot to breath. Then Jasper sees how the guy starts to scream and jump up. So he closes the call. He knows that when he will get home, he will be a hero.
Back on Earth the gang briefed Hollow about everything. She says;
"So all in all, our plan is to gather the cores from every Dimension, so that we can go the next without killing everyone, and then we can also connect them together, by leaving doors. But then why do the Celestial can go and do what they want with the Dimensions Walls? Even now i heard that they went past their Dimension into the 'Unknown'. How? And why was there no Collapse of the Dimension like you said?"
The others also are curious about that; they turn all towards Ark, then they hear him;
"Because of the 'Old One', and his 'Talent'. His talent is 'Death'.
That means when he touches something, it kills them. Imagine this. Some dark small balls small like atoms that everything they touch, dies. It just kills everything they touch. No defense, or no power, can resist 'Death'. Only 'Life' can do that. But that is a completely different chapter, that i will tell you later about it. Now the 'Old One' left some of these small dark balls inside the Dimensions walls, that 'Kills' the Dimension Wall just enough to let a door form. I know is quite the odd ball. But once you reach a high enough level, even Reality or Laws, or your belief that you know how everything works, can't hold you down anymore. All and everything can fall against 'Enough Power'. And the 'Old One's' powers are like this, the Reality doesn't bend him after her laws completely. 'Old One' can bend the laws of Reality a little bit after his will. And he still didn't advance completely, when he will, he will be even more powerful."
The other look at Ark and now they know what a monster 'Old One' is. Even if Hollow curses him, he will just 'Kill' the curse. Or if Melody wants to trap him inside the cube, he will just spread his death, and the cube will die. This is a very scary power to have.
Then Hollow says;
"But you can also bend Reality to your 'Will', you are also powerful like the 'Old One'. Why didn't you do the Doors yourself in the Dimension Walls?"
'What? Ark is also that powerful? He can do that?', the other think when they hear Hollow. Then they hear him;
"Because that would make me a Tyran, the cores would hate me, that is just forcing my will onto something or someone. I don't want that, besides then if i have the cores, i can do something like what Melody did with Earth. She gave me the idea. I will make the Dimensions to be always safe, i will make a space where i can take them with me, so that even if the 'Unknown' comes, there won't be any problems. And you all will be able to come with me. I won't be alone."
The gang looks at him and smile, they can see his clear eyes and that he really meant that. Then Kyle says;
"Okay, for now we know what and how it is. But the other planets in the Milky Way needs help, i just received an urgent call for help from Planet Arctara. Some of the beings and the mercenaries that came for Ark. Are destroying and killing their planet and people. We need to hurry, and i say we split again. Because there are many more planets in the same situation."
The others look at one another and they all agree, then they decide who, will go where. Ark will take Arcara planet together with Hollow.
Morven and Zmaug will take the Lore 561 Planet.
Serak and Kyle will take the Cade Planet.
Niobe and Elion will take the Vaustea Planet.
Melody and Calyx will take the Dryke CLGX Planet.
And Terra and Leah will take the Duna MG Planet.
After the splitting is done, they get immediately into action. Terra makes portals for everyone, the portals leading to each planet, now if they want to go somewhere they just need to tell Terra, and she will send them there. Ark says;
"Okay guys let's finish this quick and later let's celebrate with a party. Because we really deserve it."
They all nod and step through the portals. Ark and Hollow also go through and they appear in the empty space, in front of them a Silver looking planet, with no sign of water. They start flying towards it and the closer they get the more they can see with their soul vision the damages. All around the planet they can see destroyed cities and dead bodies everywhere.
On the planet everything is made from a silver medal, including most of the people, the humans being in minority. But the buildings, the cars, the roads, everything is made from this silver metal, the people there look like they have a flowing silver metal on their bodies that sticks to their skin. And they are all robots, but with normal feelings just like humans.
The duo appears in the sky and Ark makes his voice heard on the entire planet.
"I am Ark Ember, everyone who is not from this planet will die today."
Then he turns towards Hollow and tells her;
"Close the barrier and let's show them that the Third Dimension 'Kicks Ass'."
Then they start flying towards the towns killing the beings from the other Dimension and the mercenaries like weeds.
But in a silver forest made from trees that have silver leaves, a dragon kin like monster appears, with a head that is human but with yellow dragon-like eyes, and scales on his checks, and his body completely covered in red dragon scales, with two red wings on his back, and a black tail behind. On his body a black mantle that reaches the ground, with holes in it, and black pants. He raises his head high when he hears the voice, then a smile appears on his lips, he says with a raspy voice;
"So, my food delivered himself to me, that is good. I can't wait to take his powers for myself."
