Chapter 13:
Shattered and Scattered
Years of utter bliss, something of a dream. The unachievable turned reality.
Lloyd sits on the top of the highest tower of his castle, watching the sun rise from the horizon, luminating the lands he claimed as his own while his children slept peacefully. Staring at the view, taking it all in, although smiling, something is amidst. The sun meets Lloyd’s onlooking gaze.
“Is something wrong my lord? Your usually still asleep in your chambers” Says a famine voice behind Lloyd.
“Grayfia…look at this view, beautiful isn’t?”
“Indeed, it is my lord, but I don’t see anything special about this particular sunrise. There have been many, and many more to follow.”
“Your right, but there’s something about the here and now, just living in the moment. Like this view, and this smell. The smell of the morning air and dew, even from all the way up here.”
“I see. Is there anything I can do for you, my lord?”
“Hmm…well since you asked, enjoy the rest of the view with me. Consider that an offer and an order.”
“If that is what you wish.”
Grayfia sat next to Lloyd in a postured manner, extending his right arm out, he pulls her in closer to him. Something which Grayfia is flustered but also annoyed about as her faces says it all. However, it’s all set aside when she looks up to see Lloyd’s smile. She sighs with annoyance and lays her head on his shoulder.
The pair sat upon the towers roofing watching the sunrise together. 5 minutes’ worth of time passed before Lloyd removed his arm from Grayfia.
“Thank you Grayfia, I appreciate, this…more than you’d ever know.”
An ominous statement made before Grayfia bows and takes her leave. Lloyd takes a deep breath and exhales before leaning forward and falling off the roof. In the same moment as Lloyd is falling, something dashes through the castle with incredible speed, leaving nothing but a blue blur to be seen. Lloyd closes his eyes while he fell and does 3 front flips before touching down on the ground in a track runners’ starting position, coming up on his right was the blue blur. When slowed down, it is revealed to be Lloyd’s son, Sonic. Exchanging a competitive look to one another, they begin to race. Zooming out of the castle’s front gate into the open world. Now a blue and gold blur, large gusts of wind is casted off them as their broke the sound barrier and felt by those in their paths. This race soon turned into an all around the world race for the two. Running through trees, cities and even on top of the ocean itself. Helping themselves to wild fruit for breakfast.
To keep it interesting, Lloyd opened portals to the other worlds that he gained for assisting in defeating a tyrant. They then began to run around multiple worlds;
Untouched luscious green meadows, rocky and volcanic mountains, overgrown trees and right back to their original world, heading back to the palace.
Waiting for at the entrance of the castle is Grayfia who is patiently standing for them. The 2 blurs head straight for her and stop in the nick of time, creating a gigantic burst of air which is blown right in her face.
“Lunch will be ready soon, please go tidy up you two.”-Grayfia
“sure thing!”-sonic
“Yes ma’am!”
Concluding their morning run, the father and son made their way to the baths to wash up. They sat in front of the mirrors and began to wash their hair. They then finished rinsing off and jump right into the giant hot bath that puts a pool to shame. After the good soaking, the pair made their way to the lunch hall. On the way, a young voice calls out to sonic before attacking him from behind.
This attacker was Amy, ecstatic to see sonic after his run. She along with Tails, Tikal and Knuckles tagged along with the stride to their lunch. They enter the dining room and except for Shadow, as usual, is already there at the table. their seats and the chiefs begin to serve the large plates of food. Food of almost every variety. Whole pigs, steamed fish, ramen, skewers, soups and so on. A never-ending feast for a never-ending appetite. Lloyd, being the Sayian he is, devoured the food in front of him without remorse and without caring for table manners. All the guys except for tails and chaos followed their father’s lead. The daughter ate fast as well but with dignity and grace. The empty plates stacked up, one after the other. The staff would circulate back and forth with the new and old plates to feed these bottomless pits of divinity, something that would go on for a good half hour, constant in and out of maids and butlers through the tall golden doors.
After the feast, the 12 moons went looking for Lloyd and the children. The search is cut short when the bunch is found napping peacefully in the garden on a tree sampling from the new scared forest. The 12 gathers around the sleeping bunch and spot most piled up on Lloyd. Irene looks up and much to her surprise, the usually absent Shadow is resting on a tree branch as well. They could not be blamed for it was a perfect environment to nap. Constant cooling breezes, a nice warmth sharing sun, a tree to provide shade to the direct light which normally inhibits slumber, the sweet smell of fruits, flowers and honey in the crisp air.
“Why don’t we join them?” Seven suggests
The others felt tempted to join the children and their divine king but refrained to continue their duties, much to Sevens disappointment.
The sun passes over its peak and begins to lower on the amazing and youthful day. Lloyd awakens yawning and stretching. He opens his eyes to the lovely sight of his children. Sleeping without a care. The mood is then shifted when Sonic flies by on his hover board, the disturbance awakens the others and they decided to take to the skies.
Not long after, the children resumed their own things. Sonic, Amy and Tails played together. Antoine was practicing his swordsmanship. Rogue stealing from others while shopping with her sisters, Knuckles and Chaos. Zavok training his body by doing push-ups one handed.
Just when the day seemed to be ending, it still had another surprise. The sky began to turn purple with the sun settling down. The children and the residents, by the decree of their Divine king, were to head to their homes until further notice. A rather sudden and unexpected notice, but the people did not argue with the words of their God.
“My lord, is something wrong?” Says Irene
Lloyd looks up from his balcony to sees a vortex open up in the sky and 31 figures emerge from it and he ascends to join them.
Shadow, who now stands where Lloyd was that very morning looks onward with complete focus.
During Lloyd ascendance, he snaps and his fingers and begins to project thus meeting with the world.
Finally face to face with his adversaries, whom are among the stars, Lloyd smiles.
He faces the 13 gods of destruction, their 13 angles, the Grand priest, and the Grand Zeno’s and their 2 bodyguards.
Among the 13 are 2 extremely familiar faces. In front of Lloyd is the Grand Priest, the father of all the angles. To the left of him was Lulu and Merno. To the right of him was a fellow Saiyan. The former prince of all Saiyan turned God. The Destroyer of universe 7, Vegeta, and his angle, Whis. Vegeta looks onward at Lloyd with anticipation.
Faced with such an overwhelming force, Lloyd’s blood took control, and a smile was formed.
“Greetings Moroha, or rather, Lloyd. Have you received Lord Zeno’s message?”
Lloyd looks to Lulu, who is swelling with tears in her eyes. He closes his eyes and thinks back to just the other day.
“So then, what is it you came here to discuss”.
“Well…I, ummm…I’m sorry Moroha…”-Lulu
“The time has come and he goes by Lloyd now Lady Lulu ”-Merno
Lloyd sighs.
“It was inevitable”
“After you basically conquered the universe, Grand Zeno decided its time for you to acutely rule a universe, either this one, or if need be, the 14th universe. The official announcement will be made tomorrow, and your presence is called himself. Grand Zeno themselves.-Lulu
“I expected the construction of the 14 and my official transition to a god, but not like this”
“It goes to show how exceptional you are.”
“My answer is still the same”.
“WHAT! ARE YOU CRAZY?! You can’t just tell Grand Zeno’s of all beings ‘no’. That’s how you get erased!”
“I have a life now; wives, kids and responsibilities, I’m finally at peace.”
“Then that’s more of a reason why you need to do as the Zeno’s desire. You are powerful Moroha, more so than I can ever imagine and if by some miracle that you are able to combat Grand Zeno’s power, you cannot fight against all of the universe. This stands true even with the help this planet that you have come to love. It is your strength, but also your current weakness. Please…”
“I have already given my answer” Lloyd responds firmly.
“Your hopeless. Your such an idiot.” Lulu says while tearing up.
“Very well, if that is your decision” Lulu and Merno begin to leave and stops at the door.
“You are aware of what comes next now, right?”
“I am, and let me make myself clear, you better not hold back against me. You are the goddess of universe 13 and I will be your foe. If you hold back, or give me anything less than your all, I won’t ever forgive you.”
Lulu looks back with relief and tears in her eyes as she smiles at her old friend one last time.
Lloyd opens his eyes back to the starry scenery and faces the Grand priest who is awaiting his reply.
“I have, and I humbly decline”
“Declining is not an option. The grand Zeno’s have chosen you to be the god of destruction for universe 14.” The Grand priest bluntly states.
“Yeah! It’ll be fun” Zeno one comments
“Super-duper fun” Zeno two comments
“Spectacularly fun”
“Incredibly fun”
“Unbelievably fun” the 2 Zeno’s say together
“I humbly decline” Lloyd restates.
“But why?”
“Yeah why?”
“This planet has changed me. If I were to become a Destroyer, I’d have to leave it, something I cannot do. I have a kingdom, kids, and wives that I can’t think for a second about leaving.”
“I see”
“Yes, I see as well”
“If your bound…”
“To this planet...”
“Then let’s just get rid of it!” the 2 Zeno’s say in harmony.
The Zeno’s raise their hands, conquering a light and just before they get the chance, Lloyd calls upon a spell.
“PERFECT CUBE!”
The entire planet in covered in a purple cube that seems to be a barrier, not only the planet, but the even the sun and moon.
“Cool huh? I learned it from my travels, it’s a demonic magic barrier.
I’m sorry, but as iv said, I love the planet, and I can’t have you destroying it”
All 31 of the attendees are stunned.
Somehow, someway, by some miracle, the Grand Zeno’s power was canceled. The guards then move in front if the Grand Zeno’s and escorts them back to the Zeno realm while the Grand Priest has the gods to prepare to attack Lloyd. A prideful voice speaks out;
“He’s Mine”.
The gods turn to the origin of this voice and it is Lloyd’s fellow universe 7 Saiyan, Vegeta.
“That’s not fair, iv been dying to kick his Ass. Besides, aren’t you two besties or something, how do we know you won’t join him and turn against us?” Says a rowdy female destroyer on the Grand priest’s far left.
