The Atlantean Compensator 35 The Souls Of Distortion

Heracles. "Alright."

*Wisdom vanishes completely from sight as if he wasn't there and appeared right where Herald is laying under the tree.*

*Hercales picks up Love on his back*

'And with one STRONG jump.

He's already flying high in the sky over the Castle.'

*While the moon is looking as big and bright as the sun...*

'His jump was so strong it made the ground he was landing on break.

On the contrary, his landing was so soft and produced no sound at all.'

*The 6 Atlanteans took notice when hearing Heracles' jump sound*

Beazly. "...What was that?

Did any of you hear something??"

*Sebastin immediatly spots the source of the sound.*

"Hey!

Look up there!!

Is that Power and...Love on his back!??"

Joshou with his razor sharp eyes looks closely.

"Yes, there is no doubt about it..."

*The view was certainly so cool and had everybody looking in an awe*

Ayla. "Woah..

That looks amazing!!

Master Power seems to know how to fly."

Oumad. "Yeah...

Wait! Where are they going?

He's landing outside of the castle!"

Beazly. "You're right..

I wonder what is their aim."

Oumad has a serious look on his face.

"..Only Herald is still out there!!"

Ayla. "Maybe they're checking on him or something?

Makes sense, it's already night.."

Oumad. "Well I hope that is the case..."

Joshou thought about something..

"Hey Sebastin, since you've got tremendeous hearing ability.

Can you hear what they're exactly saying?"

Sebastin. "Oh yes I can, Sorry i was caught up in the view i did not think of that.."

Beazly. "Although am sure they'll know about it.."

Oumad. "If It's not something bad then no bad will come out of this, we'll only be able to trust them more moving forwards."

*Sebastin activates his powers and asks the rest to be silent..*

*Exactly where Herald is*

'Power and Love joins Wisdom'

Wisdom. "Look at this..."

*Love looks surprised of what she's looking at, but in a positive way..*

"Oh my G.o.d!!"

Wisdom describes the scene.

"To protect him, the plants moved, grew rapidly and held him up high, forming a plant-bed so he can comfortably rest and to protect him from any danger...Even fruits are put next to him for when he wakes up.

What we're witnessing here is truly

Making me happy...

And sad!!"

Power. "Let's not get caught in the beauty of the scene...We do not have much time"

Wisdom. "Yes, you're right.

We have two choices here, either stopping his slumber completely or joining him in the Labryinth"

Love asks worriedly. "Which one is the easiest and what is Its concequences?"

Wisdom. "Stopping the slumber, concequences in his case would be his uncomplete awakenning...

We all know in an Atlantean's life only one awakenning is possible.

In order to have a second one, It will cost a great sacrifice."

Power. "What about going inside.."

'Wisdom's face completely changed at this point, and his anger looked evidently clear on it.

The first time since his appearance.'

While biting on his teeth, he says."...We will have to fight him. Mammon that is!!!"

*Both Power and Love's facial expression changed as well.*

Power. "..Wouldn't the battle affect Herald as well?"

Wisdom. "This is out of my knowledge, we never had this case before..."

Love. "Hurry up and make a decision Alkeyder!!!

I can feel his life force getting drained, his soul is being sucked into Mammon's!!!"

Wisdom. "d.a.m.n it. Heracles...

You're ready for this?"

Heracles. "...Since when wasn't I ready?"

*Back to where the Atlanteans are standing*

Oumad. "Hurry up, what are you hearing?"

Sebastin. "..Stuff i have no idea what is the meaning of it...B

ut Herald's name is mentionned.

It seems they're there with him."

Ayla smiles. "So it must have been what i said, Great!!"

Sebastin trying to focus on both hearing the masters and talking to his comrades

"Not quite...They seem to be nerveous, especially Wisdom and Love..."

Beazly. "For the cool and easy going Wisdom to be worried...It means something isn't going well!"

Oumad. "This is not enough Sebastin!!

Just tell me what you're exactly hearing."

Sebastin. "Alright,

I want all of you to clap your hands"

Beazly laughs confusingly. "Hahaha...Euh what?

Where did that come from."

Joshou. "Just do as he said Beazly."

*Everybody claps his hands*

Sebastin. "I have a special ability that my powers gives me access to.

Now i'll transmit everything they're saying into here. I only needed enough quant.i.ty of sound waves to shape them how i want... In this case i'll shape them to exactly match their sound and what they're saying."

Oumad is impressed by Sebastin's ability "Good job! Your powers are of great help."

*All 6 listenned to the Masters' conversation..*

"Until suddenly, Sebastin could no more transmit it. He then fell down to the ground in great exhaustion.'

*Ayla hurries up towards him and so does the rest, except Oumad..*

Ayla. "What's wrong Sebastin!!

Are you okey?"

Sebastin, halting a bit. "..Yeah.. Just a bit exhausted.

That ability tires me up a lot, sorry that i couldn't carry on..."

Beazly. "No you did great!

Good job young man."

*Beazly helps picking up Sebastin back on his feet.*

"Well, back to our main thing...

Has any of you understood what you've heard?"

'Sebastin's ability lasted at when Love asked the other two to hurry up before Herald dies.'

'This put great fear in Oumad's heart and mind.

Not only because of what's been said, but he doesn't recall seeing any of this when he used his powers earlier in the day.

He has no explanation for this.'

Joshou. "..In my estimation, Herald is facing a danger outside there, and the Masters came into his aid.

Someone or something named Mammon that is causing this danger.."

Oumad. "...You're right, and they're either planning to fight him or waking up Herald.

Which means Herald is asleep.."

Sebastin. "Yeah, they mentionned something about slumber and awakening."

Oumad. "...And...A Battle can take place.

From their tone, especially Love's! I do not think that the Masters are up to anything bad anymore..

But this is even more confusing, Who the f.u.c.k is this Mammon???"

Elara finally says something.

"The battlefield will take place inside of Herald.

That's what i understood.."

Beazly. "...Inside of Herald?

What do you mean Miss Elara?"

Elara. "Herald has yet to awaken his true powers, I am pretty sure all of us here did know about his powers first through his dreams. Atleast I did..

So i think he's now in a deep sleep.. A slumber as they call it. For his awakening to happen."

Oumad thinks deeply then says "...You're right in what you're saying, but...

Herald's case is obviously different than ours..

He had already dreamt and awakened some of his powers. Plus none of our dreams caused us any damage. Why do supposedly the MASTERS OF ATLANTEANS have to directly intervene and save him.."

Elara. "For that I have no answer... "

'All of a sudden, Oumad recalls that Galahad was the one who asked him to use his powers in order to be sure about Herald's safety, when he pulled him inside the Gate.

"I have to talk to him, he might know something.."

'Oumad without further words runs towards the Gate, hoping to find him..'

Beazly. "HEY!!

Where are you going??!"

Oumad looks behind as he is running. "I got to find out about something.."

Beazly. "..Let's go with him, shall we?"

Joshou. "Yeah. We can't let him alone in this."

*Ayla looks sad and worried*

"I hope this turns out to be fine...'

'Then asks Elara to go as well'
