THE BATTLE ~
20
years later........
“Help,
help me!”25 year old Lukias awoke for the sixth night in a row to
the same voice saying the same words in the same dream, but this
night something else happened he found himself outside lying next to
a storage facility that he had never seen before with the voice he
had heard in his dream resounding in his head. It had a high security
volt door on it. Now Lukias had a secret that no one but himself
knew, he could unlock any door by just touching it. The voice seemed
to be coming from inside the volt and so he touched it and then
'click' it open. There was a small container on a shelf in the corner
and when he walk up to it he noticed a organism floating in a blue
liquid. He didn't know what to do and then suddenly its eyes flashed
open and the voice in his head was louder then ever, “Help me!”
Lukias grabbed the container and ran as fast as he could back to his
home.
For
a while he just stared at it but eventually he got up the courage to
take the creature out of the container. He then wrapped it in cloth
and placed on a table. For the next few weeks all it did was grow. It
would eat anything Lukias gave him, once it even tried to eat a piece
of metal that it found. After about 3 months it had fully developed
into a male Lectri Lore. This young boy was a mystery to Lukias
because all of the Lectri Lore were at least 20 years of age, but
this one wasn't even a year old.
Every
Lectri Lore has his own true name which only he himself knows
implanted in his mind from birth. Lukias ability to send an electric
magnetic brain pluses directed through the arm into his hand thus
unlocking what every he touches is only one of his many abilities
know to him, another is of the same concept but instead of unlocking
things it unlocks the most hidden thing their true name. Lukias
didn't use this ability very often because he understood this was a
very important and private thing, but in addition to unlocking the
true name he could also see memories from their past. Lukias decided
to do this to the young boy though it would drain his strength the
longer he did it. He put his hand on the boy's head. He saw
everything but his true name he couldn't find it this boy was
different then all Lectri Lore Lukias had encountered. Even though he
didn't know his true name he finally knew the mystery of this boy and
he decided to call him 15 because that was number he had seen on his
container in the boy's memories.
About
4 years passed Lukias raised the boy and by this time some Lectri
Lore began to have children and so everyone just thought he was his
son. He had just recently found a mate and she was the only other one
who knew the true about the boy and she kept his secret well, because
she loved the boy as if he was her own son.
Tension
was rising between the Kuetothans and the Monieans, the natives of a
neighboring planet and the reason for the Lectri Lore being created.
There were rumors of a war brewing between the two planets, and then
one day it actually happen. The Monieans stage an air raid on the
city of Astroillss,where most of the Lectri Lore were stationed
including Lukias. The Lectri Lore were called to arms; each one was
military issued the standard AZ-X420.
This
powerful weapon shots 3 different kinds of ammo and has an attachment
on the side to shot small grenades. In case they some how ran out of
ammo the were offered either two samurai swords or a bow and arrows
or on occasion both.
Lukias
was among those called to protect the city. 15 was left with Lukias
wife. The battle lasted for days without a moments rest for either
side and here is where we rejoin the battle we heard at the
beginning. The Kuetothan Lectri Lore though stronger and more agile
then the opposing side, but there was enough of them and they began
to retreat. Lukias rushed back to his home to save his family, but
when he got there his home was blown up, and he could find his wife
or 15. He called out for them, then he heard that familiar voice,
“Help! Daddy help me!” It was 15 he was pinned under some
shrapnel, Lukias ran over and pulled him out. Lukias knew he must
save his son; though it was a hard decision he knew what he must do.
He went to the coast where there were several spaceships. Normally
there would be a guard to watch the keys but since they were under
attack everyone, but the warriors, were fleeing the city. He grabbed
one of the crystal key and then found the ship with the same symbol
on it as the key did. Lukias fastened 15 into the seat and set its
course for earth; he put the key into the key slot and pushed down.
Lukias knew he mustn't save himself because since he was a warrior it
would be consider an act of treason and since he had a high sense of
loyalty; he would not do that even if he had to died. Lukias watched
as the ship sped off toward the horizon and then lifted off shot
through the silver atmosphere. 15 look back through hatch in the
ship, then he started waving his arms and yelling; he saw a Moniean
sneaking up behind Lukias and the last thing 15 saw was his only know
father hit over the head and slumping to the ground. 15 didn't know
what had happened to his father, but he knew it wasn't good, and so he
cried and cried until he fell finally asleep....
