1 Danger-- Fury
"Where the hell is this place?" A voice groaned.
A streak of light descended from the sky and a young man appeared, holding his head. His brain was fuzzy under forceful transportation through space. This young man was Emma.
Emma raised his head and took a deep breath. He knew a hidden power was annexing the brilliant young people from earth but he found out he could do nothing about it.
He shook his head and looked at the surroundings. Everywhere was in chaos. Instead of the blue sky, it was fiery red. 'In what shitty hole is this.'
Ah!
A sudden cry came from his right. He took a deep breath and turned his head to the cry direction. An unfortunate young man landed into a pool of red liquid and dissolved in a matter of seconds, leaving the trail of his agony.
Emma looked at the desolate planes and was furious. Previously, he was trash on earth and his parents had to pay with their freedom to send him to a remote corner on earth. Giving him a second chance to find his path.
Hoping that one day, he would save them from their servitude. However, the cruelty of the Thango Continent and the high death rate of Vulture city makes him join a bad gang.
Emma's emotion was in turmoil. He exhaled and inhaled trying to stabilize his emotion. Yet, the emotion came crashing on him. He didn't know why. Probably, because he had almost achieved his dream to save his parents but… but…
He sniffed. He tried to contain the tears at the corner of his eyes from falling.
"I have worked so hard. And some stupid people dare to disrupt my peaceful life."
Emma gnashed his teeth. He looked at the sky only to see the fiery red sky and the continuous streak of light dropping every second.
>>Try to get your emotions in control. Lily said slowly.
Lily was his system. But Lily was not the usual system. A quack and extremely narcissist at that. Yet, she was the greatest blessing to Emma.
"I just don't know why I felt like this." Emma answered truthfully.
He was not the previous Emma. The previous Emma had died at the hand of some gang. While he came from another world and inherited the body. He recovers the memory of the owner of the body and knows his deepest desire.
His deepest desire was to free his parents from servitude. And he vowed to be skillful. The previous Emma was depressed over his parents situation and vent it on alcohol. Leaving a debauchery life in regret. Having lost hope.
The previous Emma had tried to commit suicide a lot of time but he thought of his parent every time and decided against it. Yet, every wake of the morning sun was a sorrowful day.
Till death, Emma regretted his previous action, forcing his parents into servitude. However, when he took over his body and was working over to fulfill the late body wish…
He was transported to this hell hole.
"Who the fuck did this to me?" Emma asked, raising his voice to the sky.
Emma knew this was not his emotion but the previous owner of the body. But he let it flow through him unhindered.
He had almost succeeded. Almost— He had gradually conquered a city— Vulture city. He built his army and created a powerful AI to support him— Zeus.
He fought with an extraterrestrial race in Vulture City that came through the crack in space. To uproot the cause of the space crack.
He and his men journey through an unstable space tunnel to another and fight a brutal battle. Barely able to return to earth
And for what, for him to be forced into another world with no way to return.
"They should pray I shouldn't find out who was behind, else…."
>>Are you not going to find out who forced you into this world?
'Do you need to ask. Of course I will find out. That is my utmost priority right now.'
>>I guess the rune inscription, essence and intent you learn from the extraterrestrial race would help you here.
"Commander." A female voice shouted.
Emma turned his head and looked at one of his captains that fought alongside him in the alien world. Jojo. She had been with him since he created his army in Vulture city. Straightforward and blunt. A woman of passion.
"Where are the others?" Emma asked.
"I don't know?"
"Zeus, scan for other life signals." He commanded Zeus his AI.
Zeus the supreme artificial intelligence created by Emma with the help of lily made it unparalleled in Vulture and Thango.
With the help of Zeus, he subdued many gangs and organizations, making his name known throughout the continent. Yet, for this ascension…
Everything has gone down the drain.
[[Life signal detected.]] Zeus reported through the helmet.
The helmet houses the Zeus core and processor. Though it only lives in the helmet, its processing speed was not something an ordinary supercomputer could beat.
Suddenly, the sky changed and rain of fire appeared out of nowhere filled with burning asteroids.
"Commander!" Laka shouted.
A well built middle-aged man appeared on Emma's left while another lady appeared not far from him. Mata.
A ranger who went against Emma's army but was defeated miserably. But was given a second chance to join Emma's army.
Extremely talented with her two short swords, many deadly men had been put to shame.
"We need to move!" Emma announced, getting his emotion. But he clenched his fist.
'Since there's a way to come here. There is also a way to return. Nothing would stop me from returning to earth.' He vowed.
Crack
Various streams rose from the earth and the sky was on fire. Everywhere was scorching hot. If not for Emma latest design. The Starlight Battle Suit. They would have long been pulverize under the extreme heat.
[[Scanning for immediate escape route.]]
[[Scanning…]]]
[[Miss Maya life signal had been detected at your north.]]
[[Escape route found.]]
A route appeared on the helmet screen and Emma took a cursory look before he bolted to his north.
A lady appeared a couple of meters before Emma, panting. She was Mata. The last of the five. Now, the team was completed.
"Everyone, to our north at extreme speed." Emma shouted to his comms.
A faint blue light surrounded Emma and the others. It flickers every second. But yet, it never shatters. Jojo with the corners of her eyes saw their doom. The wall of fire. Her blood froze and her skull scalped.
Suddenly, a shriek came out of nowhere. The earth trembled vehemently. Cracks appeared on the surface of the earth, spreading everywhere.
From a spider crack to a deep bit. Steams raised from the crack, a boiling sound echoed everywhere. Every second, the echo of the boiling liquid reverberated through the world of fire.
Behind, the raging fire storm picked up speed. The fire storm covered everywhere, nothing was left unturned.
Ashes and smoke filled the sky, making the surrounding devoid of light.
"Commander!" Maya shouted. She looked at Emma with the corner of her eyes and smiled.
Out of the blue, an enormous crack appeared before her.
Hmm!
Her brain received a sudden impulse, gaining her attention. Then, she saw a sudden pit.
Holy Moly!
