Awakened

Past Memories

"I'm coming!" The young Apollyon Zalvider called back, running through the cave to catch up with the others. Apollyon was wearing basically rags that went down to his knee, his purple hair was down to his shoulders and his freckles with his little face was just adorable. He looked to be around 8 years old at that moment in time, "It's hard to catch up when you all are so fast!"

"Maybe you're just too slow." A male voice chuckled in a light-hearted teasing voice. Eventually, Apollyon caught up to his comrades, looking at them all with a big smile on his face. Inside the cave were three other individuals of varying ages. First was Cress, her three ocean blue and golden eyes sparkling at the sight of Apollyon and her white hair flowing in the breeze. Second was a boy who looked to be around 11 years old, he was white, his hair was a crimson red and so were his pupils. He had a cheeky grin on his face and happened to be the one who had spoken prior.

The third was a boy who looked to be around 16 years of age. He had quite the muscular build on him. He had slightly tanned skin, his eyes were a dark blue and he had long blue flowing hair. He had an intimidating, cold glare on his face, one that looked like he cared about very few things. Once Apollyon had arrived, Cress ran over to him and took his tiny hand, she was a year older than him. "Come on, let's explore this cave while we're on our break from training!" Cress smiled brightly as the four of them began to walk through the cavern.

The cave they were all in was beautiful, it was full of loads of shiny crystals and jewels that looked like they'd be worth a fortune. Although these crystals are worth a lot, the four of them were not interested in their worth, they were simply interested in their beauty of them. Apollyon looked around the cave for a minute, being involuntarily dragged by Cress, before he then turned to the boy with four arms. "Taurus? Where's Akira? He promised he would be with us today." Apollyon asked with a frown.

"Akira? You know him, he's always off training or whatever. I get he's the oldest and strongest of us all but he doesn't need to be training 24/7." The boy with red hair, Taurus pouted, crossing his arms as he continued to walk. Aside from Apollyon, the others were all wearing some sort of armor, nothing too heavy but just training armor. Apollyon frowned when he heard Taurus' words, looking down with a look of disappointment, "Oh... But... He promised." Apollyon sniffled.

"You shouldn't trust people just on their word, he obviously just said that to make you happy." The muscular boy with long blue hair spoke, speaking in a deep cold tone of voice. Cress frowned at the oldest boy, "Zeus! Don't say that about Akira! He probably just got caught up!" Cress whined, glaring up to Zeus, "You don't need to be an ass just because the master is gifting you the Mjolnir Hammer!"

The blue-haired boy, Zeus, turned his head back to Cress before scoffing, looking forward, and continuing to walk, "I can be whatever I want, whether I am mean or kind, it doesn't matter to me." Zeus grumbled while he walked, "And being gifted the Mjolnir Hammer has nothing to do with my attitude, I act in whatever way that I want to." Zeus added on. Apollyon frowned, watching Zeus. He had never gotten along much with the older boy, he was always one who would rather keep to himself than hang around with the others in their group, it made Apollyon sad because he would like to be his friend.

"Anyway!" Taurus spoke up, wanting to clear the heated air, "This cave is really pretty right! We should maybe take some of these jewels back to gift to master!" He let out a big grin, grabbing some rubies and sapphires off the walls and holding them in each of his hands. Zeus let out a grumble, "Master does not care for simple jewels, if it wanted jewels it would create some for itself. But it doesn't, because, to Master, those jewels are worthless." Zeus grumbled.
