Puzzles In Darkness: Beginning

  Kyzeip said: “let's not forget we're up against a broken system that's been out to get people like me and Exzeer, and not to mention the hidden elite has some incredibly strong fighters. Other than Exzeer there are five other members, there's a psychic, an animal man and an immortal psychopath, that leave two other potential threats waiting for us”. Rolando said: “what, is there really someone who won't die”. Kyzeip replied: “there's someone who can't die, we tried, lucky for us he's twice as tall as normal sized man, someone who attracts that much attention won't attend the new year celebration”. Rolando said: “that sounds very fortunate for us”. Kyzeip said: “but that still leaves us blind to the other two elite members, if either one of them comes to the party as protection for Alexander, well need to be prepared”. Exzeer asked: “do you actually think the hidden elite will attend the party”. Kyzeip answered: “there's no certainty they will, but we have to be prepared for every action”.

  Exzeer said: “alright you sound like you have everything planed out, tell us what it is”. Kyzeip said: “I don't have anything else planned out, the plan is to invade the city hall, kidnap Alexander and leave a message by taking out Ram Zee. With Tea and Rutilius able to phase through walls and be unseen by normal people, they will scout out the building first, just like in the cleansing mission. Then with Exzeer’s speed and terrorist skills, you will take out security and scare off the rest. lastly we will kill Ram Zee and if the transport Crystals work, I will teleport us out with Alexander back here and wait for the investigation to happen”. Rolando asked: “wait, why wasn't I mentioned in the plan”? Kyzeip answered: “what I just described wasn't a perfect plan, I have no fate that it will go that smoothly, that's why I will need you to stay on a rooftop nearby and report to us if any trouble is coming at us”. Exzeer said: “he has a good point, you don't have the same experience like we do, it will be tough for you to come, I speak from experience”.

  Kyzeip said: “Exzeer, you said your good with tinkering, can you make us some headsets for communicate before new years”. Exzeer replied: “I guess if I get my hands on some material, sure I can do it, but can I ask you why? can't you literally make anything out of, well anything”. Kyzeip answered: “it's not as simple as you think, I tried before and unless I know all the key components to a divided it won't work. Another thing you should all know is that my creation powers end when one of my creations is outside my BER, it will return to what it was before I changed it”. Exzeer said: “damn it, I was hoping you can make some stuff for me in the future”. Kyzeip said: “for now till new years I want you to stay here and try to recall any memories you had with the hidden elite, the more information we have the better”. Exzeer said: “fine, I guess I'm just going to have to stay here with beautiful ghost girl”. Rolando spoke: “that reminds me, I still have to apologize to her for the way I acted”. Kyzeip called for Flowers to come, Flowers saw Rolando and angrily said: “why is he still doing here”. Rolando went down on his knees and begged for forgiveness. Flowers said: “why should I, your uncle ruined my life and many others, you think you can make up for what he's done”. Rolando replied: “I know I can't make up for all he's done but I will try to do my best, even it means killing my uncle to make a better world”. Flowers was surprised to what Rolando said, she says: “fine, but you better do it right”. Rolando replied: “I'll have that be my intention”. Flowers turned around and left the room once more, Exzeer says to Kyzeip: “damn, what did you do to him to make him turn complete one eighty”. Kyzeip replied: “that's something you don't need to know”.

  Tea started to pay attention and said: “yo bro, R U's going two teleport or not, I's so bored”. Kyzeip replied: “right, I still haven't tested my theory yet, but I'm confident it will work, otherwise this meeting was for nothing”. Rolando respond: “no Kyzeip, wither it works or not, this meeting did mean something”. Exzeer says: “everything depends on that Crystal, don't fuck it up”. Kyzeip took a shard from the bad and wrapped his fist around it, he closed his eyes and stood still a few seconds. Suddenly his fist started to glow, the air around him started to thin, his fist stops glowing and in quick second Kyzeip was gone. Before any of the guys had a chance to react, the sound of something heavy dropping was heard from the room other. Exzeer and Rolando ran to the door and opened it while Tea and Rutilius phased thru the wall. They all came in the room at the same time, in that moment smiles were put on there faces as they saw Kyzeip safe and sound.

  The guys all happily celebrated for Kyzeip new teleporting power, but unfortunately for Kyzeip he fell to his knees and put his hand on his head to prevent it from dropping. Exzeer asked: “what happened”? Rolando asked: “are you okay”? Kyzeip replied: “I'm okay, I'm just feeling light headed, I felt the same way when I used the Plasma Blaster, only this time I didn't faint”. Exzeer said: “take it easy, we have three weeks until new years, so there's no need to rush things”. Rutilius said: “kind of ironic coming from the speedy Savage”. Exzeer said: “who the fuck are you and what did you just call me”. Rutilius replied: “I see you're as dense as you look, I Rutilius P. Ander and I’ve been here for several hours and you just now ask who I am”. Exzeer respond: “if you not a machine with an engine, then I don't care who you are”. Rutilius replied: “then what's the point of asking who I was in the first place, you really are a thick headed Savage”. Kyzeip interrupted Rutilius and Exzeer to say: “that's enough, I had I my fill on Medea already, I'm going back to Evie, until I can handle teleporting between planets I expect everyone to be ready for the big day”.

  Kyzeip had nothing more to say, he, Rolando and the pure brains left the mansion and went to the connection center. As Kyzeip headed to the Evie station, Rolando pulled him back and said: “I hope you don't mind, but if you and Exzeer are going to kill my uncle, I hope you don't think of me as a traitor for wanting to spend some time with him first”. Kyzeip replied: “do what you want, you're fully aware of who you're dealing with and what consequence will fall upon you if you do betray us”. Rolando replied: “I do, and I remembered what you said about my uncle being on a list, it just a matter of time before he's gone, so I would love to be apart of it”. Kyzeip said: “I'm sorry for things having to be this way, I don't see you the same way as your uncle. In fact, I think I see you as a friend, I'm not sure if I saying it right, I never had a friend before so I'm just assuming you are one to me”.

  Rolando inhaled with his nose that sounded like he was about to cry. Rolando said: “yes, you are doing it right, I'm so proud of you I can kiss you”. Kyzeip respond: “keep your helmet on or I'll take back what I said. Oh and before I forget here's the five hundred dolls I owe you”. Rolando replied: “keep it, don't take money from friends”. Kyzeip said: “fine as long it's okay with you, I don't really care what happens to this cash, I won it in a bet from Maxizz”. Rolando asked: “a bet, what kind of bet was it”? Kyzeip answered: “he bet me that he had better accuracy with my knifes than I do with his pistols. We traded weapons and practice on the dummies, I got three bullseye's and five body hits. Maxizz got two bullseye's, four body hits, and the back of Coach’s left leg”. Rolando said: “that explains coach's funny walk the other day, please keep an eye on Maxizz while I'm gone, I don't want him to get in anymore trouble”. Kyzeip replied: “today I managed to reactivate a transport Crystal and escape an immortal masochist, there a limit to how many miracles I can accomplish”. Rolando replied: “I didn't think so, well I'll see you soon, friend”.

  Chapter 22: The New Team

  Rolando went off to see his uncle and Kyzeip went back to Evie without hassle. The days passed by for Kyzeip and the rest, before they knew it, it was now new year's eve and the weight of that day was heavy for Kyzeip and Rolando. In a few hours new years will happen on Odis, back on Evie it was still evening, Kyzeip and Rolando packed up and we're really to go. Before they would leave Increst asked: “where the fuck are you guys going, the party will be starting soon”. Kyzeip replied: “it's none of your censer”. Rol
ando spoke: “I know not of where brother Kyzeip shall go, but I know it be a place of wonders like I shall be”. Kyzeip thought to Rolando: “way to be crypt”. Increst respond: “fucking hell, now I'm goanna have to go with fuckup-boy, wait a minute, where is he”. Kyzeip said: “my guess would be he’s make trouble again”. Just than Maxizz came into the room in a panic and said: “hey, so what are you guys talking about, is it about me”. Increst replied: “yeah, did you fucking hear that from outside”. Kyzeip said: “I think we should be considered about the fact he's breathing heavily”.

  Maxizz said: “oh it's nothing, by the way if Coach comes by tell him I'm not here”. Rolando spoke: “my Maxizz, what art thou did this time”. Maxizz replied: “well you see, I was asked to provide some entertainment for the party, who in the world could have guessed. Long story short I went out and bought some fireworks”. Everyone in the room all signed in disappointment, Increst said: “how do you fuck things up in such an unbelievable way”. Rolando spoke: “why does sir Coach end up with the hand of misfortune”. Maxizz said: “I think he thinks I'm out to get him and now I think he's out to get me, oh hey you guys going somewhere”. Kyzeip replied: “I’m off to somewhere you don't need to know”. Rolando said: “I shall be seeing a relative tonight, it shall be his last for thy century”. Maxizz said: “oh you're one of those people that says see you next year on this day, can't say I like the unoriginality”. Rolando cringed over Maxizz’s remark.

  Kyzeip left the room without a word and Rolando followed shortly after. Kyzeip thought to Tea and Rutilius: “were leaving, meet me and Rolando at the back of the building now”. Tea and Rutilius appeared in front of Kyzeip, Kyzeip then asked: “did you guys finish your practice”. Tea answered: “ya I’s did, if da ladies could see me they won't have seen me’s hiding”. Rutilius said: “I know what I'm doing will lead to chaos, but something about is exciting to me”. Kyzeip said: “remember, if Alexander can see you, you will stand out the most to him, so be stealthy as possible”. Tea said: “well do bro”. Than after that Rolando, Tea, and Rutilius all hold onto Kyzeip as he used the transport Crystal to teleport outside of the Gentlemen's club on Medea.

  Kyzeip and the rest enter the building and saw Exzeer making out with Flowers, Kyzeip interrupted them to say: “are you ready or do we have give you a minute”. Exzeer with a red face replied: “oh, didn't see you there, I was just giving sweetie some sugar before being her big hero”. Flowers giggled and said: “oh don't call me that in front of them, it's embarrassing”. Kyzeip said: “not to make things depressing, but you know once we finish taking out Ram Zee, she will have no reason of staying here”. Exzeer said: “I’m aware of that, that's why I spend all day decade to her, I only regret now meeting her in person when she was alive”. Flowers said: “so do I, I just now we would of been together if it wasn't for the unfair world”. Rutilius looks at Tea crying his eyes out and said: “do you really fall for this lovey dovey stuff”. Tea replied: “yes, it's hard for me to see this, almost as hard as the (he he) stiffy (hehehe) I’s trying two hold back” (tea then burst out in laughter). Rutilius said: “just when I think there's more to you than your second head, you manage to prove me wrong”.

  Kyzeip asked: “Exzeer, do you have the devices ready”. Exzeer answers: “yes I do and I did my best to even improve the frequency to hold a connection up to a 1.5 kilometer radius, which should be more than what we need”. Kyzeip continued: “and did you make yourself a smaller and lighter weapon than a, oh I don't know, a fucking motorcycle”. Exzeer replied: “once again yes I did, I ended up with a good old fashioned Crystal power flame flower and I one shot rocket launcher on the side”. Rolando asked: “why one shot”? Exzeer answered: “for when the ball drops, let's just say more than confetti will come out of it”. Kyzeip said: “if you're done here I’ll be waiting outside”. Exzeer said: “just give me one more minute, I what to say goodbye to Flowers”. Kyzeip replied: “I will only give you one minute”. Exzeer said to Flowers: “I’m going to miss you”. Flowers replied: “and I will you, I care more for your safety than Ram Zee’s death, don't forget that”. Exzeer said: “for all the things I forgot, I will never forget you”.

  A minute passed by and Exzeer was ready to join the rest of the team, they all hold onto Kyzeip and traveled to Odis. Kyzeip teleported them all to a rooftop at a construction building about a kilometer away from the city hall where they were just able to see the party going on with some binoculars. Rolando said: “it's kind of hard to see who's who, don't you think we can get a little closer”. Kyzeip replied: “this is as safe as I can guarantee, you're going to be looking out for cops when the chaos starts anyway so there's no need to see who's there”. Rolando replied: “it still feels like I’m not going to pull my fair share in this plan”. Exzeer said: “think of the bright side, at least you won't have to see your uncle in agony”. Rolando sadly replied: “I guess that's right”.

  Kyzeip said to Tea and Rutilius: “remember the pictures I showed you, confer that Alexander and Ram Zee are at the party, keep count of how much security there is, and report back just before the countdown, take as much time as you need and be stealthy above all else”. Rutilius said: “this is it, this is what this world has come to, me of all people taking orders from a Savage, god please fix this world for the better”. Kyzeip said: “god can't hear you and he will do nothing, we are going to make Reathdos a better place, but first we need to clean up the corruption from the most powerful”. Tea asked: “yo bro, I’s been wondering, U’s can make anything, so why can't U’s make a bomb, blow up da building and teleport out”? Kyzeip answered: “first I can't make a bomb and set it off without it leaving my BER, second eliminating all the powerful will lead to a greater chaos than we what we intend to make. To fully achieve change we have to force the others in power to that change by controlling the amount of chaos, we'll prove to them that they are no longer safe to do as they please, they will realize their actions have consequences and if they refuse to do what’s right, we will kill them”.

  Rutilius said: “you a terrifying man Savage, but I can no longer denial that you're right, I fought and died for a peaceful world for humankind, not for a depression that fills the stomach of the fat cats”. Rolando said: “it's nice to see you agreeing with Kyzeip for once”. Rutilius respond: “when I first found out seventy years had gone by I was scared of the world, I was scared of how much it changes without me and I was right to be so. Like the Savage said there's better potential in the world, but we are the ones that have to bring it out”. Tea put out his hand and said: “yaw hell ya, team potential hand circle”. Rutilius and Rolando put there hands on Teas, Exzeer joins by putting his mechanical hand in too, but Kyzeip hesitated. Tea said: “come on bro, U’s can do it”. Kyzeip said “fuck it” and put his hand in, the moment was now light and soothing just before Tea opened his mouth and said: “now let's kidnaps an old dude and kill a pimp”. The mood was dropped and Rolando looked at Tea with a glare.

  Without making himself look more of an ass, Tea went off to the city hall and Rutilius followed him after. Exzeer said: “so what do plan on doing till they come back”. Kyzeip replied: “rest up, teleporting between planets takes its toll on me”. Rolando said: “I packed some food if you want, I have sandwiches, some pop, and cookies for dessert”. Exzeer said: “will I brought sunflower seeds, plain and roasted, care for some”. Kyzeip said: “I’ll have some seeds”. Exzeer replied: “I thought you might, these used to be your mother's favorite”. Kyzeip said: “whenever she bought sunflowers she would tell me a story to go with it”. Exzeer respond: “are you talking about the sun sunflower story, she loved that story when we were still in the orphanage”. Rolando said: “I know not of what story you guys are talking about, care to tell”. Kyzeip replied: “it's just another fictional story with no purpose”. Exzeer said: “don't be like that, you know it's a good story”.

  Exzeer proceeded to tell the story: “the story goes like this, once there was a field of sunflowe
rs, the flowers glowed with a bright yellow light that shined happiness to whoever was touched by it. All the animals love the sunflowers, they would have danced in the light the flowers all day long. One day a terrible storm came, it destroyed all the sunflowers in the field, the light in the forest was gone and the animals became very depressed. But one tiny sunflower seed survived, the animals saw it and planted it in the ground, they used their love to make the sunflower grow. That tiny became a tiny stem, and that tiny stem grow to a tiny sunflower, but that one tiny sunflower wasn't enough to light the happiness in the animal’s hearts. The sunflower became lonely, but it was full of the love of the living creatures in the forest so it wasn't truly alone. With the love it had the tiny sunflower grew bigger and bigger, soon it was as big as a tree and brought light back to the forest all by itself. But the sunflower kept growing and growing, soon it became bigger than the forest and it had to leave. The sunflower still grew and grew until left the planet it was on and shined its light to all the planets in Reathdos, that sunflower grew to become the yellow sun”.
