I woke up in my house. I was in my bed and the armor Caos had was next to it. So it wasn't a bad dream.
I got out of bed and took a shower. I changed into my jeans, boots, my black leather jacket and a dark red V-neck. I grabbed my pistol and wrist crossbow and went out the door. I walked down the streets till I got to the tunnel system.
Matthew and the others were there too and they all seemed different. They all seemed stronger and the color of they're eyes changed. Wyatt's were a storm grey, Matthew's were sea green, Cayden's were mini suns and Charles' were platinum. No one had they're armor but we all seemed to radiate power being in the same place.
"So you all passed as well?" I asked. They all nodded. "That explains why you all seem to radiate power and the eye color change."
"Your talking about our eye colors changing?" Matthew said. "Dude yours are literally all the colors of the universe. You look like you have galaxies swirling for eyes!"
"That actually sounds awesome." I said. "Ok so looks like Caos left me a little gift after stabbing me through the chest." They all just looked at me like I was crazy. "I'll explain on the way to New Italy."
"Not without us you aren't." I heard someone say. I turned to see Connor and Ashley.
"You didn't think you'd leave without me did you Caleb?" Ashley said as she came and gave me a hug. Her eyes changed to a emerald green. "Hey guys."
"Ashley your eyes they.." Wyatt said.
"Changed like yours when I completed the trials." She said. Everyone just kinda looked at her confused. "I'll explain on the way."
Connor looked at me and I swear his eyes were changed too. Maybe it was just everyone else's that made it seem like everyone's, including Connor's, eyes changed. They were gold and silver and seemed to be swirled like a vortex. Maybe they were always like that.
"Connor glad your coming with us." I said. "Let's go everyone."
We had made a little train system when we made the tunnel to New Italy. It would have us there in a few hours. That gave us plenty of time to catch up. Seems we all had a tough time with the trials.
We all sat in our own little private area. We had a couch, tv and stuff. Imagine one of those trains a rich person would use and that was what we had. We all sat on the couch. Ashley and I were lying at one end with my arm around her, head was on my chest and her arms were around my waist.
We all told our stories and than just sat back and enjoyed the ride. Than Connor told us he had something to tell us. "Guys I need to tell you something." He said.
"Connor what is it?" I asked. He looked worried. His eyes seemed to swirl in a endless loop when that happened.
"Ethos visited me." Connor said. "When you guys did your trials... He made me do one of my own.."
"Connor what happened when you went to that trial?" Wyatt asked.
"I passed." He said. "And I was given the opportunity to become a Primordial."
"You mean you'd be like us?" I asked.
"Yes. My powers are over time." He said. "I can stop it, command moonlight, make things age till they crumble to dust, open portals and can sprout wings as well."
"So you said yes?" I asked. He nodded. "So what did Ethos tell you? You like the third most powerful?"
"I am the second most powerful." He said. "Wyatt is the third now after he realizes what Ethos did for him and Matthew."
"Oh come on!" Matthew yelled. "At least tell me what I can do now?"
"You'll find out soon." He laughed. "Have you seen what the armor I wear looks like?"
"No. Why?" I asked. Was a weird question.
"Your gonna like this." He said. He commanded moonlight to bring his helmet and weapons appear next to him. He had a lance and a warhammer. His helmet was a Roman design with a infinity symbol that covered his eyes. His armor was made of his power metal and had a wheel of time on the chest.
"Nice." I said. "What's the name of the metal?"
"Kronium." He said. "Well that's it.  Movies anyone?" We watched a movie and arrived at the kingdom.
We got out of the train and walked up to the city. There was a thunderstorm going on so most everyone was inside.
"Matthew, Cayden and Wyatt do you mind fixing this?" I asked.
Wyatt and Matthew snapped their fingers and the storm stopped instantly. Cayden than waved his hand and the sun started shining even brighter and in thirty seconds all the water had dried from the rain.
"That'll do it." I said. We started making our way to the leaders palace and surprisingly we found them all running down the street to find us. They looked out of breath and it took them a minute before Jerome finally broke the silence.
"We.. Saw the... Storm go away... Sun go bright.. How did you?" He asked while panting.
I explained everything to them and they seemed excited about it. We all decided to go relax at the palace and discuss plans.
"We need to find Mount Tartarus and stop the Titans from escaping they're prison." Connor said. He seemed wiser and more war like now. "If we find it the you guys can destroy it and bury the Titans."
"Erebus will have the place locked down. Something tells me he needs something to release the Titans or else he would've done it sooner." I said. "He needs some sort of weapon or something to do it."
"How do you know that?" Augustus asked.
"I just have a suspicion that he needs some weapon. Erebus beat all of us single handedly so if he's so powerful why didn't he release them sooner?" I asked.
"He's right." Connor said. "But the question is what is it he needs?"
"We'll have to figure that out." I said. "But until than we have to-" The ground started shaking and we all collapsed.
The sun started to shine brighter to the point we couldn't see anything but white. What sounded like an atomic bomb going off exploded in our ears. I looked over at Augustus and Alesa. Alesa was pregnant and whatever was happening might end up harming the baby.
I waved my hand and both were surrounded by shadows and were protected. Whatever was happening kept going on for another minute. I couldn't take anymore and I passed out.
When I came to everyone was still unconscious. Than it hit me like a moving train. They no longer looked like blocks. We were back to how we were before Primordial War! I remembered Augustus and Alesa were in shadows and I brought them back.
They were holding on to eachother tight and not letting go. They looked up and saw how everything was.
"Caleb is it.. Are we actually?" Augustus said.
"I.. I think so." I said. "How's Alesa?"
"I'm fine." She said.
"I transported you guys into the shadows. In theory it should've protected you and the baby from whatever that was." I said.
"That's why you did that?" Augustus said. "Caleb you saved us and the baby!" He was holding Alesa even tighter now and his eyes went watery. "I almost lost you both."
"You two go see what happened. Let me get the others. Ashley can you-" Ashley! She was unconscious or worse. "No no no no no! Ashley!" I ran to her and checked to see if she was alive.
"Come on please be alive. Please please please!" I said. Her heart was still beating. "Wake up Ashley, please wake up!"
She started to move but her eyes were still closed. They opened and she bolted up straight. She looked around and than looked at me.
She looked even more beautiful now than in Primordial War. Her eyes seemed to shine and her brown hair covered her shoulders and went down to halfway down her back. Her tan skin seemed to glow and she was almost as lean as me.
"Caleb is this really happening?" She asked.
"Yes Ashley it is. We have to wake the others now!" I said.
We got them all up. Connor looked freaked out. "Wait if we're wall back to normal that means that.."
"That the worlds are one!" I interrupted. "Back to spawn now! Cayden, Wyatt and Ashley help me get everyone here to spawn!"
We all looked at eachother. We summoned our armor to give us a strength boost and we teleported everyone with us to spawn along with us.
At spawn, waiting for us were everyone from the normal world. There was no way they all were gonna hear us. I had to get them to listen somehow.
"Charles how do we get them to listen?" I asked.
"You can't." Someone said. "But I can."
We turned to see Ethos standing there.
"Well do it!" I said.
"I will. But Caleb how do you expect them all to fit in both cities?" Ethos asked. I hadn't thought about that.
"I can help with that." Another voice said. This one sounded so comforting that all my worries went away.
I turned and saw a man there that I couldn't quite make out because his appearance kept changing to something that looked even better. Around him was a powerful energy that could've destroyed us all and made us again time and time again. But he didn't look to be angry but rather happy and proud like a father.
"Ethos who is this?" I asked. I looked to see Ethos kneeling down and bowing.
"Caleb this is God." Ethos said. Immediately we bowed.
"I will make your city large enough to fit all your citizens family and I will make other cities connected to yours that will be more than enough to fit everyone else. This will all happen overnight." God said. "And Caleb I give you one last word of advice. Erebus seeks the Armageddon Bow, a weapon capable of destroying all but myself. If the Titans get it you must destroy it."
"I will. Thank you God." I said. "I will not fail."
"I know you won't. None of you will." He said. "Ethos you may proceed. Goodbye my children." He disappeared with a blinding light.
Ethos managed to get everyone to listen and organized. Everyone but me was reunited with they're families. Ashley introduced me to her family and they seemed to like me well enough. I was talking to Ashley and her dad when someone tackled me.
I got up and saw it was my brother and the rest of my family. My brother, sisters, uncles, aunts, mom, dad, cousins and grandparents all were here. I am not gonna lie after not seeing them for so long I cried when I saw them.
I went and hugged all of them. I told them about what happened since I disappeared and even introduced them to Ashley and her family. We all seemed to get along too which was great for me and Ashley.
I told them they could stay at my palace since there was more than enough room. Ethos told me he would make sure nothing harm everyone else here and me, my family, Ashley her family and all the guy's family I transported to everyone's homes.
I later collapsed in my bed and fell asleep. I finally had my family back. I finally felt like I was back at home.
