Tech: ‘The hell is happening…to me…’
169Please respect copyright.PENANArADdxH4CTU
169Please respect copyright.PENANAAuTzuxhRXI
Ever since yesterday, Tech felt weak and closer to death than he’s ever felt. The nanobathes and other healing procedures are only slowing whatever is happening.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAg1oTkHa0IP
169Please respect copyright.PENANA60Sq4nKsGW
The lack of sleep is only making things worse. Doesn’t sound scientific but he felt that if he did fall asleep, he wouldn’t wake up.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAge0o6ZgNOx
169Please respect copyright.PENANAQhCMHW9u1B
So Tech is using all of his energy to try and isolate the cause of his condition. But his mind is getting weaker by the minute and the act of keying commands is putting further strain on his body.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAOdFKRmgeXL
169Please respect copyright.PENANAneJq54AWbP
Tech: ‘This…is…not…how I’ll…go out.’
169Please respect copyright.PENANAOjT7Mh1eOA
169Please respect copyright.PENANAzcd20KIUJj
Before succumbing to whatever is happening, he hits a red button on his keyboard. The last thing he hears before blacking out is the emergency alarm and the activation of one of his latest creations.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAOvIOevSqtO
169Please respect copyright.PENANAJEM4g3LRC7
Dove hasn’t had a good rest like this in a very long time. Tech might be a bit weird when it came to his tastes in design but he delivered on her room. The bed was like sleeping on a cloud.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA1mth5UPeQ1
169Please respect copyright.PENANAAnv5yvLIqM
So when the alarm slammed into her ears, she was tempted to ignore it. But her battle instincts and the feeling of dread demanded her to get up.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAQLf1WS5OKP
169Please respect copyright.PENANAzhRXc7krwu
Dove: “What is happening? Why is everything red?”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAOFXtQff3ym
169Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5ghKAg43P
Her door suddenly opened and she was ready to blow the intruder away. That was until she recognized it as one of Tech’s flying golems. But it was what it said that made her tense.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA9cBzYXDCok
169Please respect copyright.PENANAwgWSHBVO3N
“EMERGENCY. CREATOR IN CRITICAL CONDITION. ASSISTANCE REQUIRED.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAD4h64gByGe
169Please respect copyright.PENANAibO8W5dREg
Dove: “Take me to him!”
169Please respect copyright.PENANABuGecM0te5
169Please respect copyright.PENANAbtQSxaJ6Yk
No more words were needed, the golem flew toward where Tech was. Dove easily kept up and subconsciously prepared the best healing spell she had.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAPzuRciKpuU
169Please respect copyright.PENANAD1hrUq3vrD
Dove: ‘Screw your beliefs on magic, I’m not letting you die Tech.’
169Please respect copyright.PENANAVsXod07FTc
169Please respect copyright.PENANAZpgJC5mLZP
It didn’t take long to get to Tech’s room. The sight wasn’t good. Tech was faced down on the ground, pale, barely breathing and the steel plates on him was glowing red.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA7FowS7Akrp
169Please respect copyright.PENANAOnEXfenqM7
Not wasting time, Dove turned him over and used Healing Hands on his body. Every 10 seconds she would switch to Heal Other to deliver a more powerful burst of healing before returning to Healing Hands.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAsfhmhFuK50
169Please respect copyright.PENANAeSqfvJmK5j
A warm golden light enveloped his body but…it wasn’t working well. It was like whatever was affecting him was fighting against her magic. Only magic could fight against magic like this.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAEE89ZHrFxF
169Please respect copyright.PENANAs357Z4wn0n
Dove: ‘But who? No, that’s not important right now.’
169Please respect copyright.PENANAIHsBt8YKzq
169Please respect copyright.PENANAbYRJ9MW5CT
Dove turns to the floating golem before giving her orders.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAptFtsTZnpd
169Please respect copyright.PENANAv89SpnzjHP
Dove: “Golem I-
169Please respect copyright.PENANA2W7Xw3VYLe
169Please respect copyright.PENANAEnDzBYWiuH
Doctor: “THIS UNIT IS CALLED DOCTOR.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAOGYv8xBzvp
169Please respect copyright.PENANAUWrKG4WtIM
Dove: “Doctor, I need to stay with Tech and continue healing him. But I don’t have infinite magicka and the spell affecting him is powerful. I need you to get Flamma or Zander here now!”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAc6EV4WJuVT
169Please respect copyright.PENANAPMIO9EWJ5e
Doctor: “ACKNOWLEDGED.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAkiY2BNR79r
169Please respect copyright.PENANAAizEPSnHl3
With that, the flying golem left to get the needed assistance.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAskBOy6M9Nx
169Please respect copyright.PENANA1IkOiWvrDy
Dove: “Hold on Tech, help is coming.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAaOVIyvFkR5
169Please respect copyright.PENANAb2sC5Hc2UK
Flamma: ‘You know, maybe I should have took the bed…’
169Please respect copyright.PENANABXnuKNHr7o
169Please respect copyright.PENANAoga0OwXixm
She may be a dragon goddesses but sleeping on hay is never pleasant. She hasn’t even had a chance to spread her wings so the soreness was especially bad.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAxADLpEOASZ
169Please respect copyright.PENANAKwgyIb7nlK
But that discomfort left when she noticed something. Louise was up and looking at the rising sun with an unreadable expression.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA0EJwdcx7vr
169Please respect copyright.PENANA1RziXB1fkj
Flamma: “Louise, are you alright?”
169Please respect copyright.PENANA0yT6SMzV37
169Please respect copyright.PENANAC5R6h5lhol
A slight nervous jump, one she tried to cover but Flamma caught it.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAzwy7QVnJgH
169Please respect copyright.PENANAN23GlO5iSv
Louise: “Of course, it was just what we spoke about yesterday. It’s still a lot to take in.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAZeKauTABgC
169Please respect copyright.PENANADnIxk2FnOp
Flamma: ‘I only told her about how I was worshiped by some civilizations once, long ago. Nothing about the champions I blessed or how they betrayed me. Or how this world seems so similar to my own or her own hidden power. Her mind shouldn’t have been blown that hard.’
169Please respect copyright.PENANAqtwTcCoQs0
169Please respect copyright.PENANAc2bShyyx35
Flamma: “Are you sure? I’m here for you, you know.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAe1GkTPvnYe
169Please respect copyright.PENANAn9fudD59F8
That only made Louise slightly frown.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAzGV3O12Yd5
169Please respect copyright.PENANAhotHCyzn4a
Louise: “I know.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAfVNeZKcvbH
169Please respect copyright.PENANAsskFuBAHeR
An awkward silence filled room. Flamma wanted to say something but her tongue was tied. Something was wrong but she couldn’t tell what. But some hope slipped in when Louise decided to break the silence.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA4mEb8Yu2TI
169Please respect copyright.PENANAf2Su9FbfEl
Louise: “T-Today is the day of void, a free day. We could-”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAhpN2dA7DrV
169Please respect copyright.PENANATO7ayP4I04
Before she could finish, a flying golem crashed through the window, sending glass everywhere. Faster than Louise could react, Flamma was in front of her in case any glass hit her.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAh4Su5NvFUt
169Please respect copyright.PENANAVkscaSItyx
Flamma: “The hell!”
169Please respect copyright.PENANA6XVmJkeeFc
169Please respect copyright.PENANA5MoJ65Ahrp
Doctor: ““EMERGENCY. CREATOR IN CRITICAL CONDITION. ASSISTANCE REQUESTED BY ALLY DOVE.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANArwQ152VDFE
169Please respect copyright.PENANAo3xB2mS0wX
Flamma: “Tech…”
169Please respect copyright.PENANA3575eqaijS
169Please respect copyright.PENANA0jf2B1q8bl
Flamma immediately let go of Louise, went to the window and prepared to stretch out her wings for a soft landing. But first…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAG0KlDSy9hN
169Please respect copyright.PENANAaAVUpMRKQi
Flamma: “Louise, don’t tell Siesta. I wouldn’t want her to worry herself to death. I’ll make sure Tech is alright. But just in case, find Zander.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAHea03iStRn
169Please respect copyright.PENANAWpz8NaM32j
Doctor: “THIS UNIT WILL ACCOMPLISH THAT TASK.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAhbNe3mKNn5
169Please respect copyright.PENANAPxaBw5OoyT
It says before flying out the window in search of Zander.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA3LYyYbtvyu
169Please respect copyright.PENANAYBGugqXmPN
Flamma: “Oh…well…just don’t tell Siesta then. Darn it, just when we need Raskreia. I’m sure she has some healing spells.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAaGtWcWpkk1
169Please respect copyright.PENANA2w8HglSFL1
With that, Flamma jumped out the window, aiming for Tech’s base. Unbeknownst to her though, the shadows of Louise’s room were moving.
169Please respect copyright.PENANArZ6YyWYTI1
169Please respect copyright.PENANAHRlpzQ2FE0
Aeron: “He’s still alive? Impressive.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAlLfAj44sRa
169Please respect copyright.PENANAlnAtflx5UQ
Louise spun around to see Aeron in the shadows.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAmFMqDteP6w
169Please respect copyright.PENANA0lo6sHdHqz
Louise: “You did this!?”
169Please respect copyright.PENANABiSLa1bkkf
169Please respect copyright.PENANAzZuQkODpUP
Aeron: “I wanted to surprise Siesta with Tech’s reanimated corpse but it seems I underestimated his ability to stay alive. But it seems he will die soon enough. Good idea by the way.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANALNpbNagbX4
169Please respect copyright.PENANAxr3PkvDAyT
Louise: “Huh?”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAw0jBgEbwP5
169Please respect copyright.PENANAD37mo73WKF
Aeron: “This free day offers us a good chance. I’m even surprised that you were going to suggest the same thing.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAv6kbr2eqOz
169Please respect copyright.PENANAnqgJqhA20p
Louise: “What do you mean?”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAtIHt8NMRIr
169Please respect copyright.PENANAusV8oTeZmw
Aeron: “Don’t plan innocent. You were planning on learning more about Flamma for your future battle with her. Gathering information is important when fighting someone superior.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAJnCyoOs3Kk
169Please respect copyright.PENANALFUejcYav3
Louise: “That’s-”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAjgpr6BHlmc
169Please respect copyright.PENANAGeuRRiRhku
Aeron: “Good call. Do that while I teach Siesta. Then when you get back, I’ll do the same for you. But be warned, my methods of teaching aren’t for the weak willed.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANA7aZnB07pJ4
169Please respect copyright.PENANAt6GNlk33H3
With that, Aeron faded into the shadows, leaving Louise in the fog of indecision.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAsRSwiyVt4k
169Please respect copyright.PENANAXJ28QEctMp
She didn’t want to get up from her bed. Deep down, she could feel that today would be another test of her heart.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAGCUTIo2mbD
169Please respect copyright.PENANAxi6cfHQHKv
He knew something would eventually happen. This was suppose to be a vacation of sorts but the wheels of fate continue to mess with him.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAnxvIv4tZHa
169Please respect copyright.PENANAHZ977N0d5M
Zander could feel it in his bones. Something was happening in this world and who ever attacked Tech was just the first sign.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAedZPAMAnoK
169Please respect copyright.PENANA1yc0JqEkAd
He spent most of the night in the library alongside Colbert, learning more about the magic of this world. He even decided to sleep there, a much better option than in Kirche’s bed.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAnP9Qyutefj
169Please respect copyright.PENANAOGTlVOGtLW
The morning was peaceful until one of Tech’s golems found him and told him the news. He teleported outside Tech’s home and Flamma led him inside.
169Please respect copyright.PENANArbVxsHqyNu
169Please respect copyright.PENANACYPx7pJDZ5
When they got inside, they found Dove healing a pale Tech but she was sweating bullets. She won’t last long like that…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAf0qzzUa9EL
169Please respect copyright.PENANAcLR34PyroZ
Dove: “Please tell me one of you can use healing magic.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAAlHxOZe8l9
169Please respect copyright.PENANAhdGdroUps9
Flamma: “…Sorry, I don’t.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAYB6sWCU3PE
169Please respect copyright.PENANA1cuKb1jzT0
Zander: “No, but I know alchemy. Whether this place has the materials to make something for healing is up in the air. But looking at him, I don’t think we have time.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANA6GluVdTnI3
169Please respect copyright.PENANAKLuDuBzarr
Doctor: “AGREED. ALLY FLAMMA AND ALLEY ZANDER SHOULD PRIORITIZE HELPING CREATOR TO THE NANOBATH WHILE ALLY DOVE CONTINUES TO HEAL HIM.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAsFVRAANv4Y
169Please respect copyright.PENANAlvSLjtYY6N
With no more words needed, Zander and Flamma helped Tech to the Nanobathes while Dove used the remaining energy she has to keep Tech alive.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAs6BvLQXiP3
169Please respect copyright.PENANA1NgLB3xvI9
Doctor led the group to the nanobath and directed them on how to place Tech inside. Afterwards, Dove fell to her knees.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAKShyXcddVo
169Please respect copyright.PENANAsjzn5DQ5tl
Flamma: “Dove, are you alright!?”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAYhI5jKls6I
169Please respect copyright.PENANAv8yrfenZnb
Dove: “Just tired. But I have feeling that this won’t be enough to save Tech.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAQBgiUG6Zv2
169Please respect copyright.PENANAF3zt3zyTkf
Doctor: “NEGATIVE. AN UNKNOWN ENERGY SIGNATURE HAS INFECTED CREATOR. NANOBATH WILL KEEP HIM STABLE BUT UNCONSCIOUS. IF INFECTION IS NOT REMOVED THEN CREATOR WILL CEASE FUNCTIONING.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAvWRLD8hTnU
169Please respect copyright.PENANAsDiEE6vKz8
Flamma: “Damn it! When I get my hands on the bastard who did this…”
169Please respect copyright.PENANA6BC7GYqO9m
169Please respect copyright.PENANAsFHtYPJ1BX
The whites of her eyes briefly darken while her teeth sharpen, ready to tear into the one who harmed her new friend.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAYUJgx2sN4w
169Please respect copyright.PENANAnKlXvF4JC2
Zander: “But we must first heal Tech. Then we can find the one responsible. I’ll return to my own world and see if I can’t find something.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9IelzP2Mq
169Please respect copyright.PENANAzq5mrwmVmR
Zander raises his hand to open a portal home but…nothing happened. His eyes widen at his inability to bend space-time to his will.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA23BctxlP1j
169Please respect copyright.PENANAvY9MeapPNb
Flamma: “Zander?”
169Please respect copyright.PENANA3mbKkPfbGB
169Please respect copyright.PENANAehPdEaUVvN
Zander: “Impossible…even the gods couldn’t…”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAOHL0ZQDQCb
169Please respect copyright.PENANASXTM7haa6x
Suddenly, he felt a pair of feminine but otherworldly eyes on his back. Zander spun around and nearly blasted everything to kingdom come. But he quickly realized nothing was there.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAKfkwJouz8o
169Please respect copyright.PENANAI1f7kvMgPf
Zander: “Just my luck…”
169Please respect copyright.PENANALxZP5jtAmR
169Please respect copyright.PENANAgZMxZsacCS
Dove: “What’s happening?”
169Please respect copyright.PENANArsaRogZ2IO
169Please respect copyright.PENANAZVhlreOUdF
Zander: “I don’t know, but someone, something, locked down this dimension. At least to me anyway. No more teleporting home.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAjPMaQ9IQJB
169Please respect copyright.PENANAoTC876FOSi
Zander ignored the sore feeling of not being able to see the priestesses again and focused on the immediate issue. Whatever is behind this clearly means them harm. They’ll need everything they have to survive this.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAKEd5oTe1yX
169Please respect copyright.PENANAtukU32uZA0
Dove: “There goes summoning any of the Dragons I know or conjuration magic. It’s not like this is place is close to oblivion or something.”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAk2Whh3HHmq
169Please respect copyright.PENANAfwL1xzKuOv
Flamma: “But if this world is locked down, what will happen to Raskreia?”
169Please respect copyright.PENANA11r653cxMB
169Please respect copyright.PENANAHUf7yOMCy0
Silence.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAMTitTDyv9O
169Please respect copyright.PENANAnalZNIz3kh
A pitch black emptiness.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAy8tK2XMFgw
169Please respect copyright.PENANAhkXE9KQqNj
That’s what she wakes up to. It was suppose to be a simple plane hopping adventure. But as soon as she stepped through her portal, darkness took her.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA54gC1xD8xM
169Please respect copyright.PENANAxNpNjDg9LM
But even as she regain consciousness, darkness still had her. But that’s not what really frighten her, it was the fact she can’t use gate anymore.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAwHEpEpZz1z
169Please respect copyright.PENANAVCRubMeQcJ
Where was she?
169Please respect copyright.PENANA7T2cFSIBpH
169Please respect copyright.PENANAQRaHclGrtq
This was no plane she was familiar with.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAmxwgXvh20w
169Please respect copyright.PENANA2y4HYpzeKL
Raskreia: “Haha…this must be some kind of joke. I-”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAA6YYVfXx7x
…
169Please respect copyright.PENANASrEh4SkmX4
Raskreia: “What?”
169Please respect copyright.PENANACyOq6N4IrN
…169Please respect copyright.PENANAPUNiasVILO
169Please respect copyright.PENANAXq3VYsKb5M
Raskreia: “W-Who-”
169Please respect copyright.PENANA75MNwqNLV5
169Please respect copyright.PENANAiyMqvlvTvC
Bad…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAobCZRPAxEg
169Please respect copyright.PENANAep39NJ1CSM
Raskreia: “!”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAG7HD9E0MjP
169Please respect copyright.PENANAX3nADuzIh3
Girl…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAthAh2xX2nz
169Please respect copyright.PENANA1KFdmANik7
Everywhere. Softly at first but every moment increasingly louder.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA3qpoAfsWso
169Please respect copyright.PENANARNKYWtfXPm
Bad Girl.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAcKaaKtw5Yg
169Please respect copyright.PENANAgsnUvpNDqP
Over and over and over and over and over again. Hammering her head until it was the only thing she could hear.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAolqBieQz3o
169Please respect copyright.PENANAZyRuCwJFdf
Raskreia: “Shut up!!”
169Please respect copyright.PENANAKKyPkluMU0
169Please respect copyright.PENANAOGpPb7KQdE
She unleashed all the magic she could in all directions. That is…she was suppose to.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAxck1x0LGId
169Please respect copyright.PENANAsTydfE5mvZ
Any magic she unleashed was quickly smothered and eaten by the surrounding void.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAUftfAmwDgl
169Please respect copyright.PENANArsfXnlrgOd
Now there was another sound echoing in her skull.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAqESwfs5A1B
169Please respect copyright.PENANAokXSfp40RC
Hollow like us.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAUPNmgWSKFd
169Please respect copyright.PENANAnSvkjYTQH9
Looking down she can see her body disappearing into the dark. Inch by inch, she was being swallowed. She could kick and scream, but nothing would save her. No one would hear her scream.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAEDFqyQulKV
169Please respect copyright.PENANAanAnRep8AS
And if they have their way, no on will remember her either.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA4RaEAaKyen
169Please respect copyright.PENANAn2zw3WKm7V
Raskreia: “WHY!”
169Please respect copyright.PENANABzGpWN9Yuq
169Please respect copyright.PENANAVri8TNq06a
Silence is her answer.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAcQljKLgVyB
169Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5TOUjtYnO
Or so, they would have liked. But a bright light appeared behind her and quickly after, a hand ripped her from the now screaming darkness.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAPQbL785icy
169Please respect copyright.PENANAYh7xskr3fE
The next thing Raskreia knew, she was in a lush green forest. In what world, she didn’t care. She could feel relief. She checked her body to make sure nothing was missing before turning to her savior.
169Please respect copyright.PENANApUDgyv7rGb
169Please respect copyright.PENANAUWyew13zuI
He was a human but the power coming off of him was unlike anything she has felt. His face worn and torn from what seems like several eternities. He wore an old tattered blue robe with white patterns adoring its surface.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAnQT4BSEg0y
169Please respect copyright.PENANAm1qDYiC0LE
Raskreia: “Thank you but…who are you?”
169Please respect copyright.PENANASRqi27I02T
169Please respect copyright.PENANAJrTd80Gx4J
“My name Jace Beleren, the last planeswalker.”
