As snow fell down on the ground on a white plain, a large building was the only thing that stood out. Through a window, a light could be seen turning on. On the inside, a man stood looking through it. He took off his hat and threw it into a corner. He looked back at two boys who were younger than him.
?: Acheron and Nahe, you two have some very specific powers that I need.
Nahe, the blue-haired boy moved
forward a bit, his hair covered his face a bit, and he seemed serious.Nahe: How do you know us, and who are you?
?: Call me Stella, you could say I'm related to Kenos.
Acheron: So you're as powerful as him?
Stella: Yeah, you could say that.
Nahe: That doesn't answer the question though.
Acheron, the boy with brown hair looked at Nahe seriously.
Acheron: If Ken could tell our names, and he's as powerful, how else would he know?
Stella: I like your attitude.
Nahe: Fair enough but not every power is the same.
Stella: Good observation.
Nahe: What is it that you want?
Stella: Again, your powers. I'm gonna be completely honest, would have killed you by now to get them, but it's a random chance if you'll drop the orb or not.
Nahe moved back a bit while Acheron looked interested.
Stella: I'm not gonna harm you two, I have no reason to. Just simply stay around here and don't interrupt anything I do till I can find a way for you two to be useful.
Acheron: Where even are we?
Nahe moved back a bit more.
Stella: Well comrades, welcome to Russia. I took you here all the way from Greece.
Acheron: Woah...so you can create portals as well.
Nahe ran back as a light blue aura covered him almost resembling another layer of skin. He jumped out the open window near him and looked around trying to run away.
Stella: Give me a second.
With the snap of a finger, everything around Acheron and Stella stopped moving, including Nahe who was outside.
Acheron: Woah, this is cool.
Stella walked quickly over towards the window, he jumped out of it. As he landed on his feet, he put his hand forward as a small light surged through his arm and into his hand, forming an axe. The blade had Greek runes written on them and the handle was made out of a material that seemed like spruce wood but was as strong as metal.
He aimed the axe forward and an orange aura surrounded Nahe. As Stella holstered the axe, he aimed a finger at Nahe and then at the window. He disappeared from outside and reappeared inside again.
Stella jumped up to the window which was on a third floor. He grabbed onto it and climbed up inside. As he sighed, everything around him moved again, Nahe realized he was back in the room.
Stella: Could you not do that again?
Nahe immediately stopped moving, scared.
Stella: I really don't have the patience to keep doing that, so I'll give you a strike, once you're at three you die. I can always find replacements so don't get cozy.
Nahe stayed silent.
Acheron: Look dude, we have no choice but to stay here. This guy is extremely powerful from what I just saw plus he has a Telum. We should be fine if we just stay around here.
Stella: See, Acheron understands.
Nahe: Fine...just promise we'll be back home soon.
Stella: I'll see what I can do. There are a lot of rooms in this castle, choose whichever one you wanna stay in.
Acheron: Is there like any electricity here.
Stella: Yes.
Acheron: Alrighty then, I'm fine with being kidnapped.
Acheron started looking around for a room he liked and Nahe followed. Stella looked through the window and saw 8 figures that resembled people, his annoyed face turned to a neutral one as he turned around.
