episode 21

At the time "Landy" showed "Wreck" that "123" is online he decide to go to the "Ever Frost" and started packing.

Yaguto:-let me get this straight we're going to the "Ever Frost"? and what about the challenge?

Wreck:-the challenge shall wait for now, they haven't arrived yet and that means "Landy" came back with a warning.

Shimarai:-[trying to reach "Ever Frost" by air sensing] it seems the "Ever Frost" is 7 hours away.

Wreck:-and this is why we must fast travel through a gate way.

Shimarai:-fast travel?

Tika:-[surprised]the "Egress" gate!

Yaguto:-[surprised]"Egress" gate? What are you 2 even talking about?

Wreck:-precisely, I'm going to show you all a gate way between gates, just watch and listen.

"Wreck" grabs a chalk and starts drawing the gate with all 12 symbols.

Wreck:-the "Egress" gate works by filling all 12 paths on those corners I can tell you what the paths are…the first 2, the path of negativity and positivity, I believe that they are the main 2 paths, next is the serious path, then the watcher path, the mentor path, the servant path, the rebel path, the friendship path, the travelers path, the hobby path, the betrayal path, and last but not least the destroyers path, with all those paths written comes with a password to the door to open.

Yaguto:-…what is the password.

Wreck:-[opens the "Egress" gate silently]sorry, but I know that you're going to miss use those gates, those gates are serious matter and not for child's play, I will never share this password with anyone including a human friend, now get inside.

They were all amazed when they got into the "Egress" world.

Shimarai:-[amazed]whoa! so this is what the world between worlds looks like? And that's our world beneath us!

Wreck:-yup, this is your home, it's been much weirder since the first time I've seen it, now this is my third…your world is like explaining the seasons between them, the normal one explains the normal days, the "Ever "Frost" explains the winter days, but the yellow side right there looks…dead.

Yaguto:-that's the "Red Sand", it is an example of a land that is not easy to live in.

Shimari:-because there is the sun hitting it for years, and you can only see a few cloud running over it.

Wreck:-that's a shame, I wish my expert friends could see this, okay let go back to heading to "Ever Frost".

"Wreck" and the others moved a bit further through the planet then walked to the direction of "Ever Frost".

Stella:-…so, do you have other friends you're not able to see?

Wreck:-there is one friend, I can say that I'm his step cousin in a catch.

Yaguto:-step cousin?

Wreck:-it's more like I was adopted by a different family which we are not related but it was fun being with the others, there was this one cousin that I've met for only 4 times in my life, he was tall and happy, and knows how to entertain me, but after those 4 times I never get to see him again, his parents tell me that he's on a trip somewhere, and they made me believe that by any means…his name is "Largon" by the way, I still remember the names of my friends even if it was over 8 years I will never forget.

At the time they leave the "Egress" world they appeared at the lab where "Gaplock" was.

Shimarai:-where are we?

Wreck:-he stole all this? That "Gaplock" is a sneaky bastard, transporting "Skarven" technology to this world is prohibited, once I get my hands on him, I'll drag him back to "Skarven" and lock him up nice and clear.

Shimarai:-[air sensing]what are those creatures?

Wreck:-sensing a nearby town?

Shimarai:-they look like undead creatures but holding a sword and attacking the villagers.

Wreck:-[surprised]draugers? Not possible, someone must've opened a gate way to the abandoned world, all 4 of you must go and save the village before they destroy it.

Stella:-and what about you?

Wreck:-I'm going to find out what's going on and who casted the gate way to open.

Yaguto:-alright then, let's go kick those monsters, we don't have time to waste, do we?

Wreck:-get a move on, the villagers need your help.

"Wreck" and the others scattered, the village guardians are attacking the draugers and defending the villagers, "Kira" joined the guardians and "Kagemi" is looking for "Klai".

Kagemi:-where's "Klai"?

Kira:-don't know, maybe he's off looking for clues.

Kagemi:-[shocked]right now?

Kira:-sometimes I see him like that.

More waves of draugers appearing from the woods, the team just arrived to help.

Kira:-[excited]hey you guys finally made it, um, where's "Wreck"?

Yaguto:-he's off looking for the caster.

Shimarai:-hey "Kira", we're here to back you up.

Kagemi:-[surprised](wait, so those are just our backups? Then the boy is actually the one who's out there searching)?

Kira:-got any new skill to enter the show?

Shimarai:-we've got plenty, right now we should stop those draugers from coming.

Yaguto:-alright, let's get into action.

Stella:-"Tika", go heal those who were injured.

Tika:-right.

"Yaguto" summons his 3 bladed scythe, "Shimarai" summons his bow and "Stella" attracts every metal that is nearby to make for herself an armor.

Kira:-[surprised]you can summon weapons now?

Shimarai:-well "Komi" spoke about it and we made it a reality, also we called it the potential gear.

"Yaguto" went slicing the draugers one by one, "Shimarai" shot them by wind "Ki" arrows, "Stella" went to defend every injured guardian so "Tika" could heal them.

kagemi:-[surprised](is this what the boy can do? He taught younger kids how to fight and become stronger warriors, and still I wanna know what he really looks like when I meet him), tell me, about how old is the boy anyways.

Kira:-about 11 to 12 years, why do you ask?

Kagemi:-[blue]how can someone that young knows how to teach people?

At the mean time "Wreck" runs and finds weird trails that is foot prints 50m further from each other.

Wreck:-…those foot prints looks jumpy, it's like a trace of something that has a jump boost…just how far are you going to take from us.

"Wreck" followed the tracks and ended up meeting a seeker that is a cyber hound.

Wreck:-[shocked]oh no…you are…project number "69", first I see "123", now "69"? what other projects have been sent here, I made sure that the killing machine is in a high lockdown, it's impossible to be brought here.

The seeker scans "Wreck" then sends an alert message to "123".

123:-[yell]wholly whack a moley…[lower voice]the one who should not be here is here!

Gaplock:-hunters from "Skarven"?

123:-no, it is much worse than you expected…it's my creator!

Gaplock:-…sure…you can go meet your creator, right after you finish waking project "77" up from its sleep.

123:-"77" is a male project, the female is yet to be decided for waking, I'll keep "77" to function then I'll go chitchat with my creator, then I'll come and see what you're wish could be.

Gaplock:-looks like all I have to do is wait long…but don't you worry.

3 giant draugers appeared nearby "Wreck"

Gaplock:-I've got patience in life and death…even if it's boring to do nothing.

The seeker ignored the draugers and "wreck", leaving the area with a "Masmur" rod.

Wreck:-if I programmed you for different meanings…you wouldn't just have tracked those rods from the first place…okay draugers, I don't wanna make a mess around here but if you dare to attack me you'll die.

One of the draugers tried to attack "Wreck", "Wreck" jumped over him then shot him with lightning "Ki".

Wreck:-so be it…you're nothing but zombie alike, this will take a few minutes if you don't mind taste my blade[release blade made of lightning "Ki"].

At the mean time the village is safe just by building an ice dome made by water "Ki" guardians, the draugers will not leave until it eliminates what it sees alive in the village.

Yaguto:-I think they're starting to lose us…how are those injuries doing.

Stella:-everyone has been healed and there are no fatalities.

Yaguto:-[smile]great,[thumbs up]looks like everybody made it.

Shimarai:-so…this is what they call a drauger? It looks like an undead human!

Kagemi:-it looks like the thing from the picture…these are called draugers?

Shimarai:-we don't have all the details, but "Komi" would tell us about it right after he capture the caster.

Kagemi:-you're the students of that boy, right? Can you please tell me all the details about him?

Shimarai:-about "Komi"? well he is a kind person, and a great expert either.

Kagemi:-[confused]an expert?

Kira:-that's not all he haven't told you about his world and how his people look like, didn't he? I can tell you all about him(although, I can't tell them about his dark past…to be honest I don't wanna freak them out or anything).

Yaguto:-sure, we are listening, although all I've ever learned about him is that he completed more than 10 libraries.

Kira:-okay…about "Wreck Veganson" he is the brain who works like thousands of cogs ticking at the same time, and like you said he completed more than 10 libraries is that he investigates…a lot, not to mention that he's having a hard time going back, since he promised to someone that he's gonna go back to his world after he becomes 18.

After "Kira" telling them all about "Wreck" except for his dark past they all went to have lunch and "Tika" was the one who cooked the food.

Tika:-I hope you like it.

Kira:-[terrified]("Wreck's" training don't kill me now),[taste then amazed].

Everyone was satisfied by her cooking.

Kagemi:-I didn't know your sister could cook something like this! This taste of courage, it's like heavens.

Kira:-[sweat]yeah,(actually she was having lessons with him, what else did you teach my little sister)?

Everyone:-thanks for the food.

Yaguto:-by the way…where is "Klai"?

Shimarai:-at first…when we arrived at the "Ever Frost" I've seen him first, with all the draugers ignoring him.

Yaguto:-[surprised]the ignored?

Shimarai:-I can't tell actually, the draugers did not attack him, they all just passed through him, ignoring his presence.

Yaguto:-[shocked]don't tell me, is it possible that he is the caster?

Shimarai:-with that worried face? I don't think he actually meant to do it, so you could say that he was forced.

Yaguto:-force, huh? It's like that story of how others can blackmail you just so that they could use you for their dirty work.

Shimarai:-like what "Komi" said, everyone has something to protect, even if it's worth risking your life for it, here is one thing, I decided to protect my family that is you "Stella" and mother.

Yaguto:-there you go again, once you put your mind on something…there is no changing it, is there?
