M P Jump3R - BattleR Saga 1 - Everyone Forgets The Beginning

First Chant: All Lost Wants To Be Found

Black sky covered with sparkling points looks the same on every planet. At least that's what I thought when I was a kid. However each and every planet of our Galaxy is different. Different plants, different animals, different sky.

After graduation I was assigned as High Class Guard of one of the governing clans. Lord Kazaeros himself gave me that position pointing that regardless of my young age I’m much more suitable for this job than any other HG. I think he either overestimates me or underestimates my new fellow guards. Anyway, this leads us to my person.

Who am I, you ask. I am Chief Guard of Royal Department, Akh Dhamm.
Well, it might appear simple to tell you my name and position but what does it really mean to be someone?...

There are only 5 men above me in the whole MWG Society. They are: the Wind Lord Kazaeros Aarivento, the Fire Lord Hika Pozhar, the Ground King Giji Lok, the Water Master Nasui Vodha and the mightiest Ellementall Gamidio Yakufe.

Our race lives peacefully governing the entire Galaxy for over 10mln sun years of our planet. Because flow of time is inevitable, our home planet is aging.
Even with our element-control abilities, we cannot stop this matter and so for centuries map men have been searching for our new home.

One planet finally matched our expectations. 3SS-east23 is her official number. We called her Therra, which literally means, ‘blue home’.
Although a young and uninhabited planet with a strong nature balance sure sounds great in theory, it must be tested first. Two teams were sent to check habitability, fauna, and flora of the whole solar system, Therra included.

I'm in charge of group 1 with mission directly on Therra.
My best friend, Rokki, is in charge of group 2 with mission on neighboring planets.

Rokki always repeats the same phrase before any mission:
“No matter how far they send us, how terrifying the mission will get, mark my words, elements are everywhere and with them we will return.”
It sure would be nice if that was true. But since we discovered only 7 controllable elements, the ones that might get us home could lose to the others.

“Chief! Chief!” First officer screamed right into my ear. “Report! We’re gettin’ close to 3SS-east23! Temporary power loss occurred in the middle of worm-tunnel. Supporters kept substitute air flow stable but we lost contact with command.”

Just as I feared. At such distance without reconfiguration of communicator settings, it is impossible to keep contact all the time.

“Proceed as planned. Estimate the time of arrival and keep trying to regain contact. Second bridge is free for now. Supporters, get some rest. We’ll need you later.”

“Yes sir!”

Dozens of soldiers left the bridge in a flash, leaving only me and captain Megmi Yakufe on stations. Meg is the daughter of General Gamidio Yakufe - he's probably the most powerful being in the universe. Also she volunteered to join this mission and I think that’s the reason I got tricked in this job. Damn babysitter. But what could a warrior like me do in times of peace anyway? At least she is pretty.

“Chief” her silky and delicate voice caught my attention.

“What is it?”

“Do you think this planet, 3SS-…”

“Therra. From now on, we call it Therra.”

“Right” Meg sat on the chair next to communicating panel. “So this planet, Therra. Do you think it will be fine to invade it and take it for ourselves? I mean, I know our planet is dying but what if we find some civilized race out there? Will we invade or retreat?”
