GODS AMONG US: RETURN OF THE LOST STAR

CHAPTER 4: URANUS REBORN

(Alexio awakes finding himself in the midst of thrones surrounding him)

ALEXIO: hello. Anyone here?
URANUS: I should call you a coward, son of Trygon.
ALEXIO: who are you? Show yourself!(all the past elder gods of Rivendell begins to appear on the empty thrones)
KING 1: should we call this failure?
ALEXIO: how about sacrifice? Who are you?(Alexio looks around)
KING 2: we are your fathers.
KING 3; and the fathers before your fathers.
ALEXIO: Am I dead?
URANUS: last I know, you beat death more than once. Why give up this time.
ALEXIO: Because I'm done. No more wars, no more. I cannot bear to see innocents die because of me..it is but a curse
URANUS: All of Rivendell marches to war. They fight for you. They avenge you. Why do you give up on them? You have the power to end it all
ALEXIO: because... Because I fear what I wield. I'm not going down that path anymore
URANUS: none of us could ever wield what you have. Some how, it found you, it chose you. I am Uranus, your grandfather and you are the wielder of the great flame, you are the breach between life and death. You, Elyon is not done yet. The power that once was, calls out to you. It is your fate. You cannot escape it. I offer you the power of those that where..(Alexio is led to walk out the throne room to a glancing view of the fierce legions of old warlords, the red capes)
ALEXIO: who are they?
URANUS: They have served the power of the great flame for eons, they have died together and will rise together
ALEXIO: How can such noble gods answer to us in these dark times
URANUS: They will answer to he who commands the flame!!!

DILIOS: And so my Prince died...... and my brothers died......barely a month ago.
Long I pondered my prince's cryptic talk of victory. Time has proven him wise.
For from free Rivean to free Rivean...
...the word was spread that bold Elyon and his 100......so far from home......laid down their lives not just for Rivendell...
...but for all the nine realms and the promise this realm holds. Now, here on this rugged patch of land called Crox...
...Tron's hordes face obliteration! Just there the Croxians huddle......sheer terror gripping tight their hearts......with icy fingers......knowing full well what merciless horrors they suffered......at the swords and spears of 100 Yet they stare now across the plain at 100,000 Riveans......commanding 30,000 Kandorians! The enemy outnumber us
a paltry three to one. Good odds for any Rivean. This day, we rescue a world
from mysticism and tyranny......and usher in a future brighter than anything we can imagine. Give thanks, brothers...
...to Elyon and the brave 100.
To victory!!

(While the battle rages on, Trygon and Raz-el drops from the sky in form of fire balls along with lots of other Riveans and gods. The Riveans hail Trygon their elder god.)

TRYGON: you have defied me for the last time!(he rains down fire and brimstone on the Croxians)
TRON: There is no victory here!
KHAL: you should have destroyed me when you had the chance..... Brathos! Brathos lives on!

(The Riveans are on the losing end of the battle as Trygon is almost killed)

TRON: Now you will watch my blessed avengers destroy all you have created!(Trygon sights King Talus almost getting killed at the other end)
TRYGON: I am father of the nine realms!(he strikes Tron and Khal with his gold staff). Ruler of the elder gods! You will no longer defy me!(he draws down energy from the skies and blasts Tron and Khal hard)

(Tron and Khal joins forces and defend themselves against Trygon.)

KHAL: getting weaker? old friend?. (Tron and Khan retaliates. They begin to strike back at Trygon. Raz-el looks from a distance but doesn't help his father)

(From the north side of battle field, stormy clouds, thunder and lightning stabs the sky and a large beam of light blasts down from the heavens, where more Croxians are ready to attack, totally drawing their attention.
The Croxians are stunned, waiting for the deem of the bright light as they cover their eyes trying to see through the glorious light. A wave of lightning strikes evolves from the beam of light as the god blade throws it self at the Croxians totally destroys their many numbers. A god majestically steps out of the light in a complete gold armor and a red cape.)

CROXIAN 1: just one.(they laugh and mock the stranger as most of them rises to their feets.. Stavros suddenly leaps out of the light standing beside the stranger cloaked in red cape and gold armor)
STAVROS: to what ever end, my lord.(The stranger's face is then visible as the light all over him deems. It is Alexio, he grabs his god blade from the air and his helmet forms over his head and face making him look the god of war he once was)
ALEXIO: to what ever end...(driving himself forward with his god blade, the sacred army of red capes suddenly appears from the atmosphere charging behind Alexio and Stavros. The Croxians at sea port are slaughtered at once)
STAVROS: (still fighting).. My lord, Elyon! Your father! You must get to him!.

(Trygon is weakened to his knees, in s blurred vision, he sees his father, Uranus charging towards him. But it is his son, Elyon.)

ALEXIO: Father..
TRYGON: my son.. How....(Trygon looks to the battle field seeing an army of the red capes fighting along side the Riveans)
ALEXIO: (helping Trygon up)..come, father. Let me show you what you what our fathers has given me!

(Father and son fights along side against the Croxians.

TRON: I will avenge my brother!
(Alexio battles Tron violently. He finally defeats Tron by ripping his head from his body. Trygon meets Khal.)

TRYGON: LEAVE HIM BE! he is mine..(both armies separate and let Khal and Trygon face off)

(They face off mercilessly and after a long battle, Trygon clearly outmatches Khal in combat.)

TRYGON: no more shall you torment these lands! I banish you, Khal, to the blackness of the abyss! Never shall you return to see the light!
KHAL: no! No! This isn't over! (The grounds open and swallows Khal at once)
TRYGON: (stumps his spear on the ground). It is over.

(The war that once was, is finished, passed away like sand in the desert.
Alexio is burning up in flames just above Tron's body. More crox slavers are killed and slaves are liberated. Rex and Rona re-unites with Luke)

(Rivendell celebrates victory. Alexio and Laura walks out to a high platform beside the castle)

LAURA: it is a beautiful night.
ALEXIO: Yes. It sure is. But it is not as beautiful as that which I look upon this moment
LAURA: you flatter me, Elyon.(Alexio sees the red cloak tucked in her bracelet. He slowly takes it from her bracelet)
ALEXIO: This gave me strength. Hope.
LAURA: when Dilios brought it back, I thought..
(he holds her hands)
LAURA: All my life I have waited for this moment. But I wasn't sure with whom I would stand with, not until now.
ALEXIO: Come with me..

(On a gryphon, Alexio and Laura flies up high into the clouds.)

ALEXIO: I want to show you something...

(They fly far to the edge of the universe. The gate keeper approaches them from the platform at the edge of the universe)

HEIMDAL: My Prince. (He bows down)
ALEXIO: This is Heimdal, the gate keeper.
HEIMDAL: Princess. Jewel amongst the gods.(he bows his head)..it is ready, my lord.

(A gate way opens and Alexio and Laura hovers into space. Seeing the stars and constellations, Laura is overwhelmed.)

ALEXIO: (pointing to planet earth)..look, earth.
LAURA: It's... Beautiful.
HEIMDAL: The humans, my lord..they evolve more often.
ALEXIO: They will do even better

(Alexio and Laura return to Rivendell)

"War is the greatest plague that can afflict humanity, it destroys religion, it destroys states, it destroys families.
The travail of freedom and justice is not
easy, but nothing serious and important in life is easy. The history of humanity has been a continuing struggle against
temptation and tyranny and very little
worthwhile has ever been achieved without pain.
Hope is like the sun, which, as we journey
toward it, casts the shadow of our burden behind us.
Every day sees humanity more victorious in the struggle with space and time."

VOICE: all you have given to them, I shall take a thousand more.
