The Guardian

CHAPTER 1- The Guardian

The multiverse.

A vast and endless cycle of worlds entwined in a never ending possibility in reality. One with a God and one without. good or bad, the Gods will do as they please. Their purpose is to help and nurture the humans for better or for worse.

 God's create and sustain everything, Humans believe that God is omnipotent and eternal; and that God is personal and interacting with the universe through, for example, religious experience and the prayers of humans.

 But sometimes The Gods get..Well lets use the term 'bored' with watching the human's that they 'created'. They get bored of all the nonsense. they have watched the humans make idols,and other manner of being's by playing with life's greatest gift's. Genes, DNA, Cells, Etc. The humans start to make life itself. They did this... By playing 'God'.

Of course, this act will obviously make the Gods angry. So they retaliate, an epidemic or a cleansing... now this is normal.

 I don't intervene in these trivial matters. A God can do as they please, I only intervene when they 'Play' with the mortals. And I don't mean Those typical "Zeus play" I mean a kind of play that destroy's order. A kind of play that causes a surge that shakes the very core of their own alternate universes.

I am alone.

Alone in this pitiful marvel of a creation. As you know everything has a pillar, a pillar that hold's everything in place, no matter how many, big or small they do their job. But as i said, I am alone, I am the only pillar in this whole multiverse.

Unlike Gods and mortals i have no alternate, This is my punishment, I give power and will to those i choose on each different worlds. I put pillars on their universes to create balance, Some may even call them Hero's.

But that is not enough.

Once i choose a selected hero the multiverse shifts itself to follow my choosing, Sometimes the enemy becomes the Hero, Sometimes a normal civilian becomes the Hero. All of this is for the sake of balance, But sometimes the universe would become unfair. 

I find world's without Hero's or protectors or even Gods. I also sometimes find Devils pretending to be Gods to rule over mortals, That is the one thing that i intervene on. My work as a protector is simple.

Kill or change the one's causing trouble, Or destroy the universe Indefinitely and possibly recreate it. I am no God, And i am no Devil.

I don't know what i am anymore. I am not mortal... And i stopped being an angel Eon's ago.

Unlike Gods i can't die. I can turn any immortal being into mortal and so can i to the alternate. But i cannot do so to myself, For i cannot bleed. Gods bleed gold, Mortals bleed red, And Devils bleed black.

I am hollow, For i was once but a ball of light with magnificent wing's. But i don't use those wing's no longer.

"Zack" Someones calling me.

I turn around to see one of my only companion's, Mike, I forgot for how long he has been with me. The creator sent me mike and his sister when they were just a baby, Their age.. hmmm they must be over a billion by now.

Mike Jäger... He's tall and he is quite the looker, He is incredibly smart and believes in science. If i was a businessman he would be my secretary. He named himself, at first i call him flame, Because he when he and his sister was given to me, they showed me how to be happy,... They gave me emotion's that i thought i lost long ago.

"Dad, There's trouble on the universe Chagrin-1015, It seems that the Greek Gods are trying to create a wormhole." Another voice said. But this time it was a woman's voice, Kelly, Mike's twin sister.

Kelly Jäger... She's quite beautiful, she is as tall as her brother and just like him, she also believes in science. But in a different way. I used to call her candle, Because Shes more mature than her brother. She also keeps him close because he sometime's start's trouble.

After a few centuries of training them and nurturing them to become the perfect guardians they started to call themselves differently.

Flame called himself, Mike, Because he always asks the question. "Who is like god?"

Candle called herself, Kelly, she decided to call herself that because she was a Warrior.

The last name, Jäger, meant hunter. How absurd, They call themselves those because of what they see themselves as. They entertain me so...

"When do i begin and whats my mission there" I asked. We talk like this because they think its formal. They see this as a job. I see this as a task.

"We begin in 15 minutes. Your goal is to observe the situation and only intervene if you have to" Kelly said. 

"Isn't that what i always do?"
