Chapter 328 – I Came Here To Do Something- And I Was Going To Do It.
The elders were flabbergasted.
It was a tragedy- no, a disaster.
In the last three hundred and forty thousand years, they had never lost more than three commanders to the same planet. But now, not only did they lose six commanders- they also lost one of their own. They lost a citizen.
"And judging by his last words, he\'ll come to destroy us."
"If they warp here, it should take them two weeks at the least. We\'ll be ready."
There were about twelve elders yet, no one could see each other\'s faces. Their bodies weren\'t here.
Just the conscience.
This place was dark and there was shiny blue water below them- dripping.
"We can handle radiation with the barriers, but it\'ll be tricky to deal with a large nuclear strike."
"Yes, however- given the time frame we can definitely-"
They all stopped.
Beep!
Beep!
Beep!
Something happened.
A screen flashed over everyone\'s eyes.
And in the screen, they saw three figures. They\'d just appeared out of nowhere.
One vampire.
One massive nine headed dragon.
And a man with an excessively long beard but with thin hair; some could even say he was slightly balding.
But the elders weren\'t quiet because they weren\'t expecting the intruders no- rather, they were speechless as they saw just what was above the man\'s head.
"Raise the alarm!"
"The shields, bring up the shields!"
While most of the elders were focused on being defensive and all that- two were just staring at the monitor.
"Holy-\'\'
"Fuck."
Everything went white.
Bright.
KABOOOM!!!!!

It took a long time.
A really long time.
But here I was, going through the empty purple world.
The three of us were surrounded by a barrier Enira made.
And since I possessed the blood of my grandmother\'s mother, or whatever that whole thing was about, we could travel too fast in here.
"Shouldn\'t time actually move faster here?"
Last time I was here, things were different.
"Normally, yes. But with this-" She showed me a small container locket. And the locket had a bit of blood, bright red, flowy blood. "We can move without wasting any time. Technically you can only move in this world if you have this blood and the greater your blood count- the better you can manipulate time in this world and the further you can travel."
"Then how come it took you so long to come to earth?"
"Well," She fingered her cheeks. "It took a while to convince mother. And then things happened in the other world… Besides, just traveling in the same world and actually going to another…."
She went quiet.
***
We actually talked a lot.
Me, Enira, her.
We talked a lot.
We talked about things that were.
Things that should have been.
And things that could never be.
We talked about the past world- the future.
We talked about how different things were in the future.
How we persevered.
How valiant Gramps and the others were.
It was fun.
But as time moved, as time moved further and further, everything became redundant.
At one point, even the stories were being recycled.
I did remember my past and all that happened. The time I spent with my family, the time with gramps… I could remember them well. And even that forest…
And yeah, perhaps that girl really was my first love…
My body didn\'t age- but weirdly my hair kept on growing.
It\'d been over a year now. And yet, the space just didn\'t end.
Nothing happened.
The floating things never tried to attack us and things were just…. Stale.
\'Will I ever see her again?\'
\'Will I ever see them again?\'
What was I even doing?
What was the point of all this?
We could have just stayed at home; we could have just lived peacefully with what we had.
And in the midst of all that, doubt started forming.
\'No, they took them from us… they- they took everything… we came here to avenge and we came here to make sure it never repeats!\'
My family broke- I broke it. And they were the sole reason.
And for that, they were going to pay.
***
Time moved on.
And though time actually didn\'t flow for the rest of the world- for me, it just kept on going and going.
My body kind of didn\'t change much; I grew more and more facial hair though. In contrast, the hair above my head kind of started falling.
I was going bald.
But the same couldn\'t be said about down there… yeah, I didn\'t have to go pee or whatever but really, I was getting more than just a bush there- a jungle.
Yeah, Breya was right, I did have to say goodbye to personal hygiene. And who knew just how much I smelled.
And I kind of wanted to cry.
But anyway- at least I didn\'t feel hungry.
I could always just have a chat with Enira or Breya…At this point though, talking didn\'t really get us anywhere.
Sigh.
***
Two years- twenty-seven days and eighteen hours.
Yes, I\'d counted everything.
And here we were.
Just above the massive planet.
It was kind of in high speed, so we were rather close to the planet, barely touching its outer barrier.
We were still inside our barrier and this was kind of a special barrier, so the air wasn\'t leaking.
Even so- "We\'ve got about twenty minutes, I\'d say," Enira said. That said, she got out of the barrier and transformed partially just outside, clawing the outside barrier of the planet and shredding it; There were about twelve more. "Not everyone is evil you know." She said, looking back. "Maybe we can do this peacefully?"
I guess she was referring that I shouldn\'t destroy this whole place.
I smiled. "Not everyone is good either. And peace was never an option."
I raised both of my hands above my head.
Plasma started to form.
And I started to leak all sorts of radiation at full force. Enira and Breya were immortal plus they had barriers over their bodies.
But yeah, the rest of the plant was definitely not okay. Their barriers could do little against radiation of this strength.
There wasn\'t much air here, so I was sucking the stuff from the planet\'s atmosphere. I was also sucking the plasma wastes from the edges of the covered-up sun.
I almost broke nine of their barriers without even trying.
Whether they\'d die of radiation poisoning or suffocate to death first or perhaps burn to death was the question.
"We\'ll take care of any interferences," Breya smirked and just stood by.
But there were no interferences.
The few soldiers that came our way, were just blasted away.
This was the home of the So-called Xenes and though their world was advanced and beautiful and all that. It was just empty.
The buildings, the streets, everything- just empty.
And not a single one was coming to attack us.
The plasma ball- or rather the minisun was almost ready.
And just before I could throw it, I saw people.
They were coming out.
Ordinary people, just staring up at the sky.
Some were soldiers who were coming this way- others just staring at me- at their destroyer.
They were probably praying their last barrier would hold.
But I had no pity.
No regret.
No remorse.
I came here to do something- and I was going to do it.
"You\'d have to bear their hopes and dreams and despair on your shoulders…" Enira whispered.
"Then so be it." I smiled. The soldiers were almost here- desperately trying to get to me to stop me. "Too bad." The plasma ball first grew to a truck size- then it kept on growing… to the size of perhaps a small pond. It kept on burning and growing. A perfectly yellow- large ball of death- the minisun. "Aren\'t we a bit too close though?" I proceeded to throw it anyway…
The ball broke through the planet\'s barrier- it broke through the planet\'s nuclear defenses, enveloped all who were coming this way and all who were staring at the sky, and it gently crashed into its surface.
KABOOOM!!!!
