The Alexandro Chronicles: The Conflict against Neo-Earth

12. Rise of the Summoners

Ignicalibi and the other Certicomaru's walked up to their leader and helped him up. Once he was on his feet, Aludivindros and the Certicomaru's went back to the Certi Realm; except for Yazzimaru. As she was walking up to him, Blake was examining the Certicomaru Armor. He never felt something that was designed for protection to be extremely light.

"You did it Blake, you've gained all the powers that the Certicomaru's can offer," Yazzimaru said.

Yazzimaru went up to Blake and hugged him; but instead of feeling her hug being cool, it felt to warm and motherly to the summoner. A few moments later, she let go of him and he reverted back to his normal state. But then he turned his attention back to Yazzimaru.

"Why didn't you tell me about the prophecy Yazzimaru?" Blake asked.

"I'm sorry Blake; but it wasn't my place to tell you. Aludivindros feared that if one of us would tell you outright that you wouldn't believe us. So, by leading you on of the prophecy, it would entice you to finally ask him and he would've told you. Did you get the answers that you seek?" Yazzimaru answered.

"I did; but please Yazzimaru. If there's anything that I need to know, please tell me. Don't hold anything back,"

"Okay Blake I promise," Yazzimaru said.

"Thank you Yazzimaru,"

Yazzimaru gave Blake a warm smile. A few minutes later, he heard the sound of engines from a distance. He knew it wasn't the engines from any of his ships and concluded that it had to be from Neo-Earth. As the ship was getting closer, Yazzimaru went back to her realm when a Neo-Earth ship landed. The summoner tightened his grip on both the two swords as the two occupants walked out of the shuttle.

"Who are you two and what do you want?" Blake asked.

"Greetings sire, my name is Freda and this is my sister Judie,"

"I've never seen you two, you're not from here are you?" Blake asked.

"We're not, we're from Neo-Earth," Judie replied.

Blake got into a defensive posture; he held both swords outward; pointing both swords at the two women. "Then you will die here," he said.

"Now hold up King Blake, let's not do anything to hasty. We've come to find you in peace. Look, we don't have any weapons on us," Judie replied.

"Why should I believe anything you say? Azeira sends your fleet to invade Ginia without any provocation whatsoever. I should send your bodies back to her in body bags," Blake sneered.

"With all due respect, you wouldn't have known about Azeira if we didn't tell the old man and the Frigidarian. Now please sir, let's allow level minded heads prevail here. We didn't come to fight," Freda said.

Blake thought of it for a moment, he looked at the two Neo-Earthlings and noticed that neither of them had any weapons. He placed one of the swords back in its sheath; but kept the other to his side, he wasn't taking any chances.

"Then what are you doing here right now?"

"We've been looking for you, to talk to you plain and simple. Please, come with us, we can take you to where your citizens are and discuss a way to stop Azeira once and for all,"

"You abducted my people?" Blake asked.

"No, no, they're still in the underground bunkers I swear, we left them there with the old man and the Frigidarian and didn't go back," Judie replied.

"My sister speaks the truth Alexandro; your people are safe and sound. We've even allowed that stolen shuttle you used to get around to enter through that hidden entrance so that your family can get in," Freda added.
