Of Angels and Demons: A New Generation

The Titan Forger

"The portal to the Xalar's world appeared at the bottom of the ocean." The old man says as Moxi scratches his chin. "This sounds a lot like a movie I watched once. Why can't I remember the title?" He mumbles as I shrug. "Alright, I found it." Aziria says as we all look at her. Her eyes are closed and she's tapping her leg. "That's definitely a dimensional bridge. So that's a whole other universe on the other side." Aziria says as she opens her eyes. "Shall I teleport us directly through the portal?" She asks as we all nod. "Alright, let's get going." She says as she holds out her hands. We all quickly grab her hand as I see all the soldiers staring at us, scared and confused. "What are you?" The old man asks as we all look at him. "Just a group of angels, demons, and humans." Lastis says as we appear on flaming ground. "Ah!" I say as I jump off the ground, but quickly realize these flames do not burn or off put heat. "Visitors, intriguing." A voice says as a tall man appears in front of us, almost seven feet tall. The man has short white hair and two different colored eyes. His left eye is white, but his right eye is red. He's wearing shaggy brown and white robes, almost like a wandering man would wear in a movie. He has several piercings in his lip and right ear. "Highly intriguing that you should come to me, the great titan forger." He says calmly as Ayumi swings towards him, his easily slaps her hand away. The slap knock all of us except Aziria and Ayumi off of our feet. "Titan forger? What does that mean?" Aziria asks as he looks to her. "I create the beasts that subjugate mortal realms, they bring me planets to consume. I use mortal souls to fuel my power, they are the metaphorical coal to my metaphorical engine." He says as my left arm goes numb. "What the hell?" I mumble as Moxi and Attira both look awkward. Attira rubs her neck as Moxi rubs his hand. "So, what is your name?" Lastis asks as the man looks at him. "My name is Atlas Echo." He says as I hear giggling. "You will do nicely. I humbly invite you to Terminus." I hear a soft female voice say as I quickly look around. Aziria and Ayumi also look around as I see a short girl appear a few feet away from us. She stands at about four foot and eight inches tall. She has red hair coming down to her shoulders. She's wearing a white and black school uniform with red leggings and fingerless gloves. "Leader would love to meet you." She says, her crimson eyes piercing through us all. "What gives you the right to talk to me in such a way, girl?" Atlas asks as her smile quickly slumps into a frown. "Hm?" She stares at Atlas as Aziria starts to lunge towards her. Before Aziria moves an inch, a blade is pressed against Aziria's throat. The little girl is pointing a sword towards Aziria's throat and staring crazily. "You aren't who I'm here for, so you can get lost." The little girl mumbles as Aziria vanishes. "What did you do with her?!" Lastis yells as the little girl giggles. "I just teleported her a few dimensions away." She says as Ayumi stands in front of me. "Do you pose a threat to Malick?" Ayumi asks as the girl tilts her head. "Lord would most definitely kill me if I laid a finger on him. So, worry not, I'm only here for Atlas. My lord has an interest in him." The little girl says as Atlas stares at her. "And why would your lord be interested in me? Besides possibly asking to serve me." Atlas says smugly as the little girl rips all his limbs off in the blink of an eye. "Gah! You brat." Atlas grunts as he regenerates his limbs quickly and breathes lightly. "Fine, take me to your leader. I'll hear him out." Atlas says as the girl smiles. As they start to vanish, I quickly speak up. "What is your name!?" I demand as the girl looks at me. "You may refer to me as." Her lips move like she's saying her name, but I hear nothing. "When you understand us, you'll know my name." She says as she smiles and vanishes with Atlas. Ayumi quickly turns to me and touches my left arm. "We need to find someone to remove that tracer." She says as a portal opens beside us. As we look at it, Aziria steps out, clearly angry. "Why?" She mumbles as I stare at her. "Why what?" I ask as she quickly looks at me. "Why are all these incredibly powerful people only appearing now?! Where were they when Silvia was going to destroy everything? Where were they when Ragnarok was shaking the universe with her very existence?!" Aziria yells as she bites her lip, drawing blood. "And why is Kai never here when we need him?" She mumbles as we all stare at her. Ayumi quickly speaks up. "I truly don't mean to sound rude, but who is Silvia and Ragnarok?" Ayumi asks as Aziria stares at her. "I don't understand, do other dimensions not feel threatened? The energy should have been overwhelming too all dimensions." Aziria says as Attira taps Aziria's shoulder. "We really need to get these tracers removed." She says as Aziria sighs and opens a portal. "This is the last place I wanted to go, but we have to see an old friend. She can sever energy pathways and remove tracers. But after she gained a lot of strength, she went a little crazy. She's far stronger than I am, so we'll have to not upset her." Aziria says as her portal turns black and green. As we go through the portal, we once more appear in a new world. "Aziria! It's been so long! What has it been, a thousand years?" A woman says as she appears in front of us. She last short messy black hair, completely black clothing, and blood red eyes.
