Author's Note: Unedited Chapters ------------------- Thiiiiinnnnnhhhhh~ A reddish castle materialised from nothing above one of the Xionsis and Glade landed atop it with force, causing it to descend powerfully. Booom! Shockwaves spread across the vicinity upon delivering this destructive blow which caused the icy grounds to crack and give way once more. Fwwhii! Fwwhii! Teemee was busy dodging the descent of the gigantic hails when he suddenly leapt into the air and kicked one in the direction of the Xionsi chasing him. Bang! "Guys... can you hear me?" Glade and Teemee suddenly froze as they heard a familiar voice in their minds. "Gustav!?" They yelled out at the same time. "Glade, Teemee, you two seem to be in a pinch... do you need help?" Gustav questioned. "Nah we'll take care of these clowns in a few," Teemee replied. Immediately after Teemee finished saying that, the entire iceland vicinity began to quake intensely. The whole environment turned dark as storms gathered intensely and heavy winds whooshed. Krrrrrrychhhh! Icicles began to appear from the ground and tornados formed very quickly as massive ball like flames appeared in the skies as well. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎 Up ahead, one of the Xionsis could be spotted stretching forth his hand with a bloodied face and glowing silver eyes. "You won't be taking care of anything," He yelled out. The instant the other two Xionsis noticed what their teammate was doing, their eyes widened with distress. "Uzeki stop!" They both yelled out but Uzeki ignored their cries of concern. They were well aware of how much toll it took on their bodies when they made use of their sway force to control multiple weather conditions at the same time. Both Xionsis had sustained damage as well after taking the attacks of Glade and Teemee but they were able to quickly turn into tornadoes themselves and escape the range of weather extremities. Glade and Teemee had been caught up in these weather extremities. They tried to find a way to escape but they had been completely surrounded by storm's. Icicles shooting out of the ground intensely, tornados ripping at them from every corner, hailstorm getting shot out from every angle with so much force that would easily rip a hole through ten persons stacked together. The descending rain of flames as well as the cackling dark clouds up above didn't make matters any better. Teeemee had leapt off the ground a bit and got caught up by tornados pulling him from every corner as hails shot towards him and icicles potruded out of the icy ground beneath. Even if he and Glade managed to counter some of the attacks physically, he was well aware that they couldn't counter everything. The massive red glowing figure surrounding his figure couldn't act as defense to everything. "Looks like i have no other choice," Teemee muttered as the red figure surrounding him like a body of armor shrunk. Thiiinnnnhhh~ In the next instant what could be seen was a reddish glow on Teemee's chest as icicles were only inches from penetrating him while Glade was doing her best to counter the ones around her physically. "Recalibration... Speed up," The moment he muttered these words the reddish light spread forth from his figure once more, turning into a dome that surrounded him. The moment the icicles and hailstones made contact with the reddish dome after its little expansion, they turned into liquid. Splash! Teemee's face was doused with a shower of water after they all transformed. "Expand!" Teemee yelled. Fwwwwhiiiiiii~ The dome suddenly expanded from surrounding just his figure to the entire vicinity of more than a thousand feet. As the icicles and hailstones phased through the dome, they turned into liquid immediately. However, this wasn't the only change as the tornados turned into mild breeze and flames descending turned to small candle lights before getting snuffed out. The lightning bolt that descended upon the dome, turned into a little electric streak that didn't cause any damage as well. The ground beneath had transformed into a stream as no form of ice could be spotted below. "What!?" Uzeki eyes widened in shock as he noticed the transformation everything that made contact with the dome underwent. The reddish dome was still spreading across the place and was only a couple of feet away from the Xionsis. "Run!" The other two Xionsis fled as they spotted it while Uzeki remained in place with a defeated look. "Uzeki! You fool run!" One of the Xionsis turned around as they noticed he was still standing in place. However it was too late... Uzeki's entire figure was enshrouded by the reddish dome in the next instant before it stopped spreading. "Kiaarrrrrhhhhhh!" A loud scream reverberated across the vicinity in the next moment. - "Show off," Glade voiced while staring in Teemee's direction as she stood on the surface of the stream with red glows on her feet. "I recall you saying you didn't want this power. Blame your shortsightedness," Teemee shrugged. "Hmph! Anyways lets go somewhere secure to talk with Gustav," Glade stated before turning to the side. "Yeah, this battle is over," Teemee replied before his entire body glowed up once more. Fwwhiiii! Fhwwwiii! They both sped forward in the next instant, leaving afterimages as they dissappeared into the distance. Meanwhile on a part of the battle zone, a scrawny looking naked figure with transparent skin and white head could be seen floating on a body of water. His entire skin looked pale and saggy, almost like this participant suddenly aged by fifty years. "Uzeki!" One of the Xionsis yelled with a look of horror. ############ "Alright since everyone is now attentive... I've connected you all to my mind and location, can you sense it?" Gustav voiced as he floated beside a machine. -"I can sense what direction to head in," -"Same here," -" Man this is nuts haha its like having comms," -"Except for the fact that we can also sense what direction to head in and how far away we are," Aildris, Falco, E.E, Endric and the others answered as a conversation ensued between Gustav and everyone. "Teemee, Glade, did you handle your issue? I saw Xionsis," Gustav inquired. -"Yeah we're good now," -"They came looking for trouble and we handled it," Both of them answered simultaneously. This made Gustav recall what he heard upon his entry into the portal that led him here. The voice sounded like they bore a grudge with him and now Gustav couldn't help but think it might have been one of the Xionsis. "Be careful," Gustav warned. -"It's fine really. Although it got dangerous, we took care of it," Teemee replied. "I can see you guys are headed down some kind of canyon," Gustav voiced. -"Yeah we wanted to get as far away as possible from our initial location," Glade responded. -"The last week has been really crazy man," -"At the very least I and E.E arrived at the same location together," -"We all definitely need to gather and move as a team as soon as we can. Other groups are finding their way to each other as well," The others spoke as well after Glade's confirmation. Gustav could see each and everyone of them as they journeyed with speed in the direction they were supposed to. Fortunately, no one was currently getting accosted by trouble. "Alright... I'll give everyone visuals in a few on how my current location looks as well as the rest of you so you guys can be aware if anyone of you is closeby," Gustav said before turning to the sacred jewel. It's gleaming body reduced in brightness as it turned completely mirror like in the next instant. On its curcular surface, every single participant current location was displayed as a footage with split sections. -"Yo is that Elevora?" -"I can see Glade tail," -"Why does everyone seem to be in different locations," -"You bastards better have eggs with you because I've been gathering some as well," They voiced out one after the other as a projection of the sacred jewel appeared in each of their locations, displaying the others as well as Gustav like a screen. Since the sacred jewel was also linked to them, no matter how fast or how far they moved, its projection would still follow. "Guys guys, focus," Gustav called everyone's attention back to him causing them to keep quiet. "In the next couple of hours, we would have spent a week on the fourth disk. You know what this means," Gustav voiced out. -"The screens displaying the current scores from the Viondur Challenge will appear," Endric seemed to instantly figure out what Gustav was talking about. "Precisely," Gustav replied. -"I'm not following, do you want us to arrive before it does?" Abestos questioned. -"I don't think that is even possible," Phinx stated. -"Yeah and even if it is, I don't think its what Gustav's wants," Matilda added. "It isn't... Do you guys know what will happen once the current scores are released and everyone is aware of the planets that have acquired one or more Viondur eggs?" Upon Gustav's mention of this, Aildris face beamed up. "Ohhh now i see what you're getting at," Aildris stated.
