A Boundless Shadow

Let's end this Godforsaken War

After I said that short speech to Cromwell, the others in the room stared at me with smiles as they appreciate what I did to Cromwell. While we continued talking about the ongoing war on the surface, a group of scientist came from a sliding door with various checkboards. According to Cromwell, the checkboards hold every personal detail about every person that has been summoned in this remote location. They called for 68 people in the room, including Cromwell, but not me and my brothers. As the 68 members go up to the scientists to collect a badge, the head scientist, named Rowell, came up to me and my family. He goes up to my brothers and I and said,

"My emperor, Solaris von Solaria, the reason I didn't call for you or your brothers is because I want you 4 to be the commanders of this elite group known as the Titan Guardians. This group are the best of the best and do the most dangerous jobs known to humanity, this is why all 4 of you are the most eligible members to be commanders as you have trained to fight as well".

I agreed to the very large task they have given to me, to be the commanding officer of the Titan Guardians. I watched as all 68 other members look at me as if they want me to say something before they enter the pod. So I look up with pride on myself knowing there is a reason they chose these people,

"For years we have watched so many people, friends, family fall to the hands of the Apocalyptic Kingdom. No more shall we face this suffering, no more shall we cower in fear as the enemy march through the destroyed cities of our kingdoms. We will finally take the fight to them, take back our homes and bring peace to this planet once again. Are you with me?!".

Everyone looked and smiled at me with hope in their eyes and all replied, "For the Empire!" "For his Highness, Solaris!".

After we went through that brief moment of reassurance, we all went to our designated pods. My brothers were taken to another location with a more advanced pod capsule for the experiment, I stayed to talk with the head scientist. I asked if this is really the best idea, experimenting on teenagers and putting the fate of the world to our hands. He replied that we have the most compatibility with this experiment as we are in a good development phase. After that short conversation, I walked to the area my brothers were and they were already in their pods. I quickly went into my pod and the door started closing to prepare for the experiment, the pod started to put me in a massive deep sleep and did what is meant to be doing.

I have no idea how long I have been in stasis, but I can tell it has definitely been more than a few hours. When I'm starting to think when the procedure will finish, a smoke was released in my chamber to wake me up and the pod's door started releasing. My brothers and I started to slowly walk out of the pods and felt like we have power surging through our bodies. The others also started walking out of their pods and feel like they could take on so many things, everyone is starting to recover from the entire ordeal and I started talking to the other Titan Guardians. The scientists look gleeful as they watch the people who came out of the pods which ended the entire project in a success, they started to cheers they finally have a chance to free everyone from this pain and suffering.

We all went to another room where we get armoured up and prepared to go outside and deal with the enemy, the scientist explained that the armour connects to our bodies and activates upon command and is completely invincible. The chip was implanted onto the back of our hands and had the insignia of the Solarian Empire which surprised me, we all had a specific activation word to activate the armour we have designed for us. As we all finished preparing, we were now at the bunker's opening hatch so that we can take the fight to them.

The bunker started to open, every Titan Guardian started to activate their armour and loaded their weapons. The hatch was then fully opened and we started switching our armour to airborne mode to take to the sky and locate every single enemy in the capital. We take the skies and aided with local military with multiple firefights against the Apocalyptic Kingdom, due to the increase of power, we managed to defeat all of the enemies very quickly and without much effort. We managed to push back the enemies to the outskirts of the Capital and finish them off there, this is when things started to take a turn for the worse. the Kronion appeared with a hellfire of an army, at the front appeared the person I wished I never see on the battlefield...
