*Segment - Before* *Chapter I - Heart and Order.*
Year - Unknown Location - Earth
In a dark room with only one light on a table, one man seems to be asking the other questions, the man asking the questions cant be identified, unlike the other one, sitting in a chair.
The man in the chair is wearing a set of armor that seems Sci-fi, armor plateing that looks heavy but light at the same time, its white with red patterns, he is also wearing a matching helmet, which has an orange one way visor, he can see through it, but nobody can see inside it.
"So, what is your name?" The man without armor asked.
"...It changes from time to time, as it stands my name is currently Ultima." he said.
"Ah, i see." the man said.
"What do you want with me?" Ultima asked him.
"Its simple." the man started. "We need your skill, you seem to have alot of expireance in terms of combat." he said.
"That i do." Ultima confirmed.
"It says here.." the man said, looking at what seemed to be a file of some sort. "You claim to have been born with a Guardians Blessing, and a Guardians Curse."
"Yes." Ultima said simply.
"Go on then, what is this blessing." The man asked, in a demanding kind of way.
"The Guardians blessing is simple, after reaching an age, generally anywhere between 20 and 40 years old, i become unaffected by time itself, i no longer age, and can quite literately live forever." Ultima said.
"And the curse?" the man asked.
"If anything bad happens, if something i spend a long time to achive fails, or anything like that, im forced to live with those events...forever, it takes anything that would normaly be considered bad, and amplify it, its mostly mental." Ultima said.
"So, if something that truely hurt you badly, for example, something bad enough to be considered a nightmare, you would be forced to live your life in that nightmare?" he asked.
"...Yes." Ultima confirmed.
"I see, does any of your family have the blessing and curse?" the man asked.
"No, only i have it." Ultima said.
"Do they know?" the man asked.
"...No, they did not find out, mostly because i havent seen them in a long time, and it activated only after i went to do my own thing." Ultima said.
The man put the file away and looked at Ultima.
"I see.
So, do you know why we brought you here?" he asked.
"No, i dont." Ultima said.
"My name is Hallend, for now, all you need to know is from here on out, you take your orders from me, lets just say we work for the military, and the goverment." Hallend said.
"Very well." Ultima said.
"And your first objective is simple, we have discovered a sort of base, held by The New Rebelion, far outside the city, your objective is to go there, find out what you know, and give us all the information you can gather, without getting caught." Hallend said.
"Sure." Ultima said, not seeming to have a problem with it.
"Now go." Hallend said.
Ultima got up and out of the chair, and began to exit the building, as he made his way to the forest outside the city.

As Ultima exited the building, it was clear he was in some sort of military base, with a few tanks and many soilders roaming around.
As Ultima began to leave, another man walked up to him, he had on armor simuler to Ultimas, but there were a few differences in design, it still looked Sci-Fi, and his Visor was yellow.
"Hi there." he said.
"Hello." Ultima said.
"So..you're the final Spartan Five?" the man asked.
"...Spartan Five?" Ultima asked, confused.
"Yeah, Spartan Five, they search around the world for people with gifts, and bring them in, it was said there is only five of us, and we are experts in combat, hence the name Spartan Five." he said.
"I see, so our job is to help them with whatever their objective is i guess?" Ultima asked.
"Pretty much, so, whats your name?" he asked.
"Ultima." Ultima said.
"My name is James, nice to meet you." James said.
"Well then, its good to meet you, who are the other spartan fives?" Ultima asked him.
"Hanson, Belock, and Kenward." James said.
"Im assumeing you know them?" Ultima asked.
"Yeah, they are friends of mine, and all four of us were born with our own abilitys, but i will tell you more later, anyway...good luck!" James said, walking off.
"Thanks" Ultima said as he continued onward.
After a few hours he reached the forest, he could see the city behind him, it seemed quite large, bigger then Newrum State City. The forest was dence, and not much could be seen other then alot of trees. Ultima continued to walk for a few more hours, the city was far behind him, and no longer visible, it was even night now, and it was very dark.
He came across an open passege within the forest and there was a road in front of him, and the sound of foot steps was heard not to far away, Ultima quickly hid behind a tree and waited.
Moments later, some soilders carrying guns were marching down the road, as they got closer, a family was with them, two parents and their son, they were all wearing fairly normal clothes, the father has short brown hair, while the mom had long black hair, the child had short dark brown hair, they were likely prisoners. there was also a soilder up front who seemed to be the leader of the group.
"How much futher? we are hungry....and." the mom started to say.
The man who seemed to be in charge turned around and smacked her with the end of his gun, knocking her to the ground. "NOT ANOTHER WORD! NOW GET UP AND KEEP WAlKING!" he shouted.
the kid ran up to his mom to help her.
"Are you okay!?!" the child asked, clearly conerned.
"Yes...im fine." she said.
The man turned around.
"I SAID BE QUIET!" he yelled, about to actually hit the child, the mom pushed him out of the way and took the blow again.
"Your starting to get on my nerve." the soilder said, as he started to beat her with the gun.
"STOP THAT!" the father yelled, trying to punch the soilder off of her, but he dodged the hit and the soilder hit him down, knocking him out.
"NO!" the mom yelled, the child was now crying.
"When i say be quiet, I MEAN IT!" the soilder said, about to start beating them.
Ultimas hand was shakeing, clearly he was angry. "Enough....is ENOUGH!" Ultima said. he jumped out and ran towards to soilder before he could hit them again, he brought out his sword, which was white and shineing slightly.
He also brought out a shield, simuler to the shield he would use later.
He used his shield and hit the leader of the group down to the ground, stopping him from hurting the mom and child, as the soilders began to shot Ultima, a blue energy shield surrounding him appeared as the bullets hit him, each time a bullet hit, it got brighter.
He used his sword to stab and kill a few soilders, and used his shield to hit a few others, the soilders shot him enough times to deplete the energy shield, leaveing only his armor to defend himself, he used his shield to defend against the other soilders bullets and he used his blade to kill the rest, except for the one who was beating the family up.
Ultima grabbed him by his neck and held him up in the air. "Who are you? and why are you hurting them?" Ultima asked, intent, and very angry.
"Thats none of your buisness." the soilder said. as he kicked Ultima in his stomach, forceing Ultima to drop him, and he ran away.
Ultima aimed his sword at the soilder and after a few moments, a bolt of lightning shot out of the sword and struck him, he stumbled for a few moments but still got away.
"Ofcorse..." Ultima commented.
Ultima then sheathed his sword and shield, and went to the mom and child and helped them up.
"Are you okay?" Ultima asked them
"We are now, thank you so much!" the mom said. To Ultimas surprise, the child ran up to him and hugged him.
"Thanks for saving us!" the child said.
"...Your welcome." Ultima said as the child stopped hugging him.
"We should get somewhere safe." Ultima said, picking up the still knocked out father.
"Where are we going?" The mom asked.
"Well, the best thing i can do is get you all back to the city." Ultima said.
"Really? you can get us home? but what if there is more of those army men?" the child said.
"If it comes to that, i will deal with them, dont worry...i promise i will get you all home." Ultima said.
"Thank you." the mom said.
After that, they began to follow Ultima as he lead them back to the city, it was too dark to tell if they were near the city or not, eventualy they came across a cave.
"Its too dark to tell where we are, we should stay here, you all need your rest, tomorrow we will get to the city." Ultima said, the mom and child nodded.
They entered the cave and a small fire was lit to keep them warm, the child slept near his mom, and the dad was still knocked out, he was also placed near them.
Ultima stayed outside and kept watch.
...
In the morning, as the sun began to rise, the city could be seen not too far away.
Ultima went back inside and they were still sleeping.
"Hey, wake up, the city isnt that far away, we should be able to reach it in a few hours." Ultima said.
...
After a silence, Ultima went forward and tapping on the moms shoulder.
...
Ultima then checked the moms pulse, and she was dead, as was her son, and the father.
Ultima took a few steps back and was a bit shocked.
"How did this happen...." Ultima wondered, before remembering the comment the mom made earlyer.
Ultima then noticed there was a small noteback in the moms hand, he picked it up and began to read it.
Today those...soilder people were taking us to aother place, we didnt know where but they were quite mean, we have been starving for a few days, but every time we speak, the leader of their group hurts us.
Luckily, some guy in armor came in and saved us, he was nice, and he promised he would take us home.
I just hope we wont find more of those soilders again.
After Ultima read this the notebook fell out of his hands, he simply turned around and intently began to exit the cave. Apon exiting the cave he brought out his shield, hitting the top of the cave with it, a rumble happened and the top of the cave fell down, closeing the entrance.
Ultima kept his shield out and brought out his sword, and began to make his way to the camp again.
"I wont fail next time, and if i ever find that soilder again.....he wont get away." Ultima declared as he continued to go to the camp.
Suddenly, useing some kind of transmission system, Ultima heard Hallend.
"Ultima....whats going on? where are you? you should have been at the camp by now." Hallend said, sounding slightly mad.
"Well...i was.." Ultima started, but Hallend interupted him.
"Actually, forget it, i dont care, just... get the job done." Hallend said.
"....Yes sir." Ultima said. as Hallend ended the transmission.
Ultima continued to make his way to the camp.

Hours later, Ultima arrived at the camp, the soilders in the camp looked different then the ones he seen earlyer, but he overlooked this and continued into the camp, making sure to avoid detection.
The camp wasnt that large, and seemed like a small base of operations, having a few dozen soilders, a few tents, and a main tent.
his armor seemed to have a camo system within it, as he activated it, he become mostly invisible, but there was a slight blur, to the untrained eye he was invisible, but if someone payed attention, he could easily be spotted, luckily for him these soilders were focused on something else it seemed.
Ultima got passed them and entered what appeared to be the main tent undetected, and he heard two soilders talking, he got behind some objects and listened in.
"Have we found it yet?" Soilder one said.
"Yes, its located in some kind of temple, in a place called The Forgotten islands, we will need some kind of ship to get there." Soilder two said.
"Great, so when can we start heading there?" Soilder one asked.
"As soon as tonight" Soilder two said.
"i see." Soilder one said.
After hearing that Ultima started to leave.
"Hey, did you hear what happened earlyer?" Soilder two said, suddenly Ultima stopped and listened.
"No, what happened?" Soilder one asked.
"A army convoy was escorting prisoners, we were following it for a while, last night one of their own jumped them and took them out and saved the prisoners." Soilder two said.
"One of there own? why would they do that?" Soilder one asked.
"Not sure, perhaps the one who attacked them didnt know they were allys, he could have mistaken them for us." Soilder two guessed.
"And the family? what happened to them?" Soilder one asked.
"He was too late." Soilder two said.
Ultima wasnt sure what to make of this, but exited the tent and made his way back to base.
...
Many hours later, Ultima arrived back at base, the other four Spartan Fives, james, Belock, Hanson, and Kenward, were all there near the entrance, talking.
They all had different armor, but generaly it was the same, james still had his yellow visor, while Belock had a green one, kenward had a black visor, and Hanson had a blue one.
Ultima walked up to them, but before he could speak, James spoke.
"Oh, hey there Ultima, you should probably go see hallend, he seems angry about something." James said.
Without talking, Ultima went inside, and found Hallend in his office.
He looked angry, and now his face could be seen, he had dark grey short hair, and a uniform on. "Do you have any idea WHAT YOU DID?" hallend yelled.
"Yes...i do." Ultima said as Halled walked up to him.
"That was OUR convoy! we were escorting them to a safer place!" Hallend said.
"Is that why your men starved that family to death?" Ultima asked.
"What? what family?" Hallend asked.
"The family one of YOUR men were beating and starving to death, on my way to find that camp, a convoy showed up, and they were beating the family up, two parents and their son. Care to explain?" Ultima asked.
"Thats not what i ordered, i gave them direct orders, they were supposed to escort one of the Rebelion leaders we captured to a safer location." Hallend claimed.
"I see..." Ultima said.
"I will get that mess sorted out in a bit, for now, tell me what you learned." Hallend asked.
"They are searching for something, located in a temple in a place called the Forgotten Islands, and they know where its at, and plan to get there tonight useing a ship, it seems they will have to traval the ocean to get to it." Ultima said.
"I see....this is what i want you to do." Hallend started.
"Go there, find whatever they are looking for, and bring it back here." Hallend ordered.
"Understood." Ultima said, leaveing the room.
...
Ultima got back to the camp, in time to see various soilders heading deeper into the forest, he followed them for a few hours staying undetected until they reached the ship, it was massive, and allmost resembled a cruise ship.
"Is everything ready?" Soilder one asked.
"Yes. lets get going." Soilder two said as they went onto the ship, Ultima activated his camo and followed them and succesfuly get on this ship,
with that the ship began to sail to the forgotten islands.
...
The next day they arrived, and the islands looked beautiful, it seemed untouched by time itself, the temple was also large, and in plain sight.
Ultima continued to follow them as they reached the temple.
"So, this is it?" Soilder one said.
"Yup, the Grand Temple, appearntly there might be some sort of powerful object in there" solider two said.
"So we dont even know if its in there? why are we wasteing our time then?" soilder one asked
"Not sure, captains orders." soilder two said, as they entered the temple.
It was large and seemed like its been around for ages, strange symbols covered the walls and floor as they went deeper inside, there were a few traps but they were fairly easy to bypass, they then came acroos a long small walkway, with a few axes swinging back and forth, and a pit below that.
as each of he soilders tried, they failed, and fell down to the pit below. the last two soilders made it passed though, as did Ultima.
As they went deeper in, a strange blue field of energy was in front of them.
"What is this?" soilder one asked.
"I....im not sure, its some kind of magical field." soilder two said.
"Should we enter it and find out whats on the other side?" soilder one asked.
"I dont think we have a choice." soilder two said.
Alpha watched as both soilders entered the field and vanished, only for them to be flung back out seconds later, there skin was burnt all over, and they were clearly dead, ultima just looked at the strange gate.
"Well, i suppose its my turn." Alpha said as he entered the gate.
When he did like the soidlers he was teleported, but when he was, he was in a strange place, unlike any he has seen before.
He was in a giant blue-ish room, visible data was everywhere, and in the center was a seeming full sized planet, much like earth, but different, and he was standing on a floating passage, which lead to the planet.
"Wow.." Alpha said, as he walked towards the planet, as he got closer, the planet was just a hologram, a floating 3D image.
It was Earth, but that was basicly it, other then that, the room was empty.
"Huh, theres nothing here, i guess it wasnt real afteral." Alpha guessed he then made his way out.
...
After alot of walking he was just outside the main building, he went inside and found Hallend in the room he was in with Alpha a few days ago, except this time he was asking someone else questions.
It was the same soilder that hurt the family and got away from Alpha earlyer.
"You were given DIRECT orders, take the rebel leader to the base, and keep his location secret, not only did he escape, but you took a family INSTEAD?" Hallend yelled.
"Sir..you must understand..i" he started before Hallend interupted him.
"ENOUGH SUROS! i dont want to hear it, you got that family killed, why?" Hallend asked.
"They were related to the rebel leader and were going to join him, so i punished them." Suros said.
"Thats not punishment, thats murder, and..." Hallend started before someone entered the room and told him Alpha arrived.
"Well well....looks like judgement day has arrived for you Suros." Hallend said.
"Why?" Suros asked.
"Because he is here.....Alpha, please come here." hallend asked.
Alpha entered the room and Suros was shocked. "YOU...Y...YOUR HERE!!?" Suros said sounding surpised.
Alpha was silent and was about to explode.
"You defyed orders, killed an innocent, among other things.....i should let Ultima kill you...or at the very least punish you....
..But...i wont." Hallend said, Ultimas head slowly turned to him.
"...What?" Ultima said, sounding angry.
"How are we any better then him, if we kill him in cold blood, or hurt him out of anger?" Hallend stated.
"You will not be punished...yet, but from now on, you are bound to this place, and you will serve us for the rest of your life." Hallend said.
"MY WHOLE LIFE?!?" Suros asked, outraged.
"You should feel lucky i didnt have you punished, infact your lucky im a good man." Hallend said, leaveing the room and bringing Ultima to his office.
...
"Why did you let him get away with that?....he deserves to be hurt, he hurt that family...and your just gonna let it go?" Ultima asked.
"Yes...i am, what he did was wrong sure, but a point is not made should we act without thought, doing to him as he did to them only shows your just as much of a monster as he is." Hallend stated.
"But he hurt that family! he deserves to be hurt, they didnt! there is a key difference." Ultima claimed.
"Whats done is done, leave at that." Hallend ordered.
"...Yes sir." Ultima said.
"So....what did you find?" Hallend.
After taking a moment to think.
"I found the temple....it was old and there were many traps..
..But ultimitely there was nothing inside, it was empty, and so after searching i left... the soilders were killed by the traps." Ultima said.
"..I see, they've never been good with scorces, you are dismissed, i will give you your next objective tomorrow." Hallend said.
Ultima left the room.

*Segment - Before* *Chapter II - Harsh Reality*
The next day, Alpha was walking around the base, until a soilder walked up to him.
"Alpha sir, Hallend wants to see you." the soilder said.
"Understood." Alpha said, walking into the building and into Hallends office. Hallend was on the phone, talking with someone.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY LEFT? They cant just betray us like that!" Hallend yelled, Ultima simply listened.
"NO!...we are gonna find them....and bring them back, and if we cant....
...Yes...thats the plan, we cant let them join the rebels, whatever the cost, we either get them back, or make sure they cant join the rebels.
...Yes....i understand...." Hallend said as he hanged up the phone.
"What happened?" Ultima asked.
"The other four Spartan Fives have vanished, we fear they may join the rebelion, but we arent sure why, we know where they were last headed, at another camp just north of the city. Go there, find them, and bring them back if you can, and if they refuse..
..Do not let them join the rebelion...no matter the cost." Hallend ordered.
"I understand." Ultima said as he left the building.
...
When Ultima left the room, Hallend got back on the phone.
"Is everything ready?.........Good..dont forget our objective.....we will have all the teams there waiting....
...Find out what he got.....no matter what." Hallend said. hanging up the phone.

Ultima went north of the city as told, no idea what he was about to get himself into.
North of the city was another forest, but it was less dense, Ultima went through it on his way to find the four spartan fives. When Ultima found them, they were in an open area, waiting.
Ultima went up to them and they were not surprised to see him.
"What are you guys doing here?" Ultima asked them.
"Waiting.." Kenward said.
"For what?" Ultima asked.
"....You." Kenward said, as the four spartan fives turned to Ultima.
Ultima instinctively pulled out his sword and shield and got ready for a fight.
"What do you mean?...why are you after me?" Alpha asked.
"Because we know you found something in that temple, and Hallend wants it." James said.
The four began to circle Ultima as they got ready to attack, but before they did, many soidlers arrived, even tanks.
all four of them began to attack Ultima at once, but he was only able to dodge a few hits, his energy shield depleted a little bit. he used his shield to hit james and Hanson, knocking them away, he used his speed to dodge Kenward and Belock. Ultima then continued to fight with his shield, keeping them away, after useing his shield to knock Hanson Belock and James away from him, he used his speed to slide around kenward and ran towards him, he leaped up at him and kicked Kenward back, doing a move that would become a signiture of his later on.
after knocking kenward back into the other four spartans and did a back flip, he landed on his feet. but before he could react, the soilders fired upon him, depleteing his shields, and the tanks fired their cannons, hitting him directly. the blast knocked him several feet away, he was hurt badly, and his helmet was cracked, armor bent, and he was bleeding through parts of his armor. He could barely move.
The four spartan fives began to walk towards him, but a voice was heard.
"That will be enough....stand down." Hallends voice was heard. walking up to Ultima.
"What did you find in there we know there was on object of immense power now where is it?" Hallend calmly asked. Ultima was silent and didnt respond.
"Fine..we will do it that way then....kill him and get the crest." Hallend said.
the four spartans aimed there guns at him, but then lightning struck where Alpha was, createing a blinding ligh, sending the four spartans back, and shocking Alpha.
"WHAT JUST HAPPENED?" Hallend yelled.
...
Alpha was knocked out by the lightning, When he woke up, everyone was gone.
"They left..." Alpha noted.
As a result, he decided to go to the rebelion.
Alpha then went further north, to find the main camp of the rebelion.

As Ultima continued on his way to reach the base of the rebelion, he began to hear various unsettleing sounds, which sounded like screams. As a result he stopped for a moment to see if he could hear where it was coming from, and it seem to be far off, and to his right. As he looked in that direction, he seen smoke.
Ultima changed course and went to where he heard the screams, as he got closer, a fog covered the area.
After getting past various trees, he found a small village, burned down, as he looked around, the fire was still burning, the buildings that werent burnt down were nothing more then a bunch of ruble, he seen someone hideing beneath some of that ruble, likely trying to hide from whoever burned the villiage.
"Its okay, you can come out now." ultima said.
When the man came out he was stunned, surprised by the way Ultima looked, but it didnt bother him too much. he seemed fairly young, a teenager with short brown hair, his clothers were fairly normal, shirt, pants.
"...You've got to help them!" he said.
"Who?" Ultima asked.
"The others! they are going around burning the villages! they said its too risky to leave any standing." the man said.
"Who are they?" Ultima asked.
"Some kind of army people, not outfited like normal though." the man said.
Ultima took a moment and remembered the family he found before. "Is your family okay?" Ultima asked.
"Yeah, they got away." he confirmed.
"Good." Ultima said. "Now then, where can i find the next villiage?" Ultima asked.
"Just follow the road." he said.
"Well then, dont worry, i will save them....i promise." Ultima said.
"Thank you!" he said.
With that Ultima began to run to the other village.
...
When he got there, the village was bigger then the last one, it wasn't burned yet, there were many trees around it, soidlers were also there, but the soilders looked different, they put all the villagers in a line, they had eight soilders aiming their weapons at those villagers, the other soilders seemed to be prepareing to burn the villiage, dumping gasoline everywhere.
it was the rebelion, Ultima used the trees as cover and listened. there was a bald man wearing a uniform simuler to Hallend, but different, and for the rebelion.
"My name is Callus. I am the leader of the Rebelion.
Hallend thinks he is doing this world a favor, but he is wrong, he must be stopped before this world can know true peace." Callus claimed.
"So, with that, i give you all a choice, you are either with us, or against us.
Join us, or suffer the punishment." Callus said.
The villagers were silent, they were clearly scared.
"Very well." Callus said, getting in a vehicle.
"If they dont join, do as you did before." Callus said as he was driven away, most soilders followed leaveing only the eight, as they pointed their guns at the villagers.
"Not this time....not again." Ultima said, jumping out and running towards the soilders.
As Ultima jumped out towards the soilders, they aimed their guns and started shooting Ultima, Ultima used his speed to dodge some of the bullets but a few hit him, denting his armor and hurting him, Ultima still charged forward with his shield, knocking 3 of the soilders into the ground, killing them, 3 of the other soilders began to shoot Ultima but he used his shield to defend against the bullets.
While Ultima was distracted with the three soilders shooting him, the other two threw a fire grenade at the gasoline, starting a fire, after this they ran.
The fire started and was growing rapidly, the three soilders bashed Ultima with their guns, stunning him for a few seconds. the three soilders took the oppertunity to aim at the villagers and was about to shoot them.
Ultima quickly ran but they shot the villagers, killing them, Ultima used his sword to stab the three soilders.
When Ultima looked around, he was too late, the village was allmost completely burned down, as the fire spread quickly, much quicker then he expected, the other two soilders got away.
After waiting for a few more moments, Ultima began to run, in an attempt to catch Callus.
...
Ultima followed the vehicles tracks but it split into two directions, the one on the left seemed to go north, while the other one continued forward, Ultima made the choice to continue forward.
As he did, he found a facility,
"Oh my.." ultima said, in response to the structure. it was large, and old, even overgrown, it would seem abandoned were it not for the various vehicles, large trucks which looked like they were used for transporting people from place to place, the vehicle he followed here was notably absent, it likely went on the other path.
"Get down!" someone said, pulling Ultima behind some cover.
Ultima had to take a double take when he noticed who it was.
It was the other four Spartan Fives, James, Belock, Hanson, and Kenward.
Ultima looked shocked, and wasnt sure how to react.
"...You again." ultima said.
"Hey, we arent here to fight you, infact we need your help." Kenward.
"Right...after you almost killed me over an item i didnt even have?" Ultima asked.
"Things change, right now the rebelion is a bigger priority." James said.
"You really think im just gonna trust you after what you did?" Ultima asked.
"We figured you wouldnt, but we have a bigger problem, and we cant do this without you." belock said
"Hallend is too afraid of what he is up against to make a move, so its our job to stop Callus ourselves." James said
"Hallend may be harsh, but he is nothing like Callus, you seen that yourself. Callus has been fighting to take over for years, if we stop him, we can end this." Kenward said.
"And you want my help to do it?" Ultima asked
"Yes, and if you help, no doubt Hallend will forgive and forget." Belock said.
Ultima took a moment to think.
"Look, we made a mistake, and i think i speak for the rest of us when i say we are sorry for what we did." Kenward said.
After thinking, Ultima made his choice.
"I shouldnt trust you, infact i should just leave.....
....But if it ends this....then fine....im in." Ultima said. "So..what do we do first?" Ultima asked.
"First things first, he took many villagers as prisoners, among other people, and he hid them here, we free them, then we focus on finding callus." kenward said.
"Alright, but it would probably be best if we wait until night time to do this." Ultima said.
The others nodded and they began to wait until night.

*Segment - Before* *Chapter III - Forgive and Forget*
As night arrived Ultima and the four spartan fives prepared to enter the facility.
"So, how do we get inside?" Kenward asked.
"We climb" Alpha said.
After a bit of parkouring they were on top of the facility, there was a glass opening, letting them inside. One by one they all entered, as they entered, they were in a large room, near the top, the facility had alot of storage, and a few large cells were seen down below, they were on some of that storage.
There were only people in one of these cells, but it was too far to tell who exactly were in it.
"There they are." Kenward said, pointing out the cells.
There was quite alot of rebelion security.
"Well, we can either take them out quietly, or just take them all out at once." Ultima guessed.
"They may be waiting for us aswell." Belock guessed.
"So what do we do?" James asked.
"We take them out, and deal with whatever is left." Ultima said.
"Well, that is the simplist option." Kenward said.
"Yeah, its also more dangerious." James said.
after making a choice, they climbed down the storage and got their weapons ready. After reaching the bottom, there were more soilders then they expected.
"Great." Kenward said.
"We'll be fine." Ultima said, not sounding too concerned.
Afterwards, they ran up and began to take out the soilders, Ultima used his sword and shield while the spartans used their guns, they desposed of the men rather quickly.
"See, i told you we would be fine." Ultima said
After Ultima said that, around 30 soilders arrived.
"You were saying.." Kenward said.
"...Ive been wrong before." Ultima noted.
They then began to fight the soidlers.
Alpha used his shield to block most of the bullets and knocked a few soilders back, giving the spartans a clear shot at them, killing at least five of them. Ultima used his shield to block various bullets and jumped over them, surpriseing them, ultima used his sword to stab another five.
The spartans began to push them back, shooting and killing ten of them.
the last ten soidlers retreated.
"Well, that takes care of that." James said.
Ultima and the Spartan fives went to the cell, and the prisoners were children.
"So, the rumors were true." Kenward said.
"What are you talking about? and why are there children here?" Ultima asked.
"Well...we heard rumors that.."Kenward started before he was interupted.
"Kenward...whats your status?" Hallends voice was heard in a transmission to Kenward.
"We found them and cleared the facility sir." kenward said.
"Good, stay there, we are on our way." Hallend said, ending the transmission.
"Hallend is on his way." Kenward said, after that, all four of them looked ar Ultima.
"This should be fun." Ultima said.
"it would probably be best if you went somewhere else." Kenward said.
"There is a village not to far from here, you should check and see if anyone needs your help." James said.
"I was there, no one survived." Ultima said.
"....Did you check the houses? or just assumed they were dead?" Kenward asked.
"....Well...i didnt check..but....
..I should probably go check." Ultima decided, leaveing the building through the front door as he began to return to the village.
...
When Ultima returned to the second village, it was all burned down, the buildings were still destroyed, some barely standing at all, but the fire was gone.
Ultima noticed something.
After searching the houses, he seen something on the ground.
they were footprints.
"What the....i dont remember these.." Ultima said, looking at them, as he did, he quickly realised they were footprints from a dog.
"What would a dog be doing here..." Ultima started to wonder, starting to follow the footprints, he noticed some went into the village, it led to a building, and then seem to leave, before Ultima could follow, Kenward seem to speak to him.
"Ultima.....you should come back." Kenward said.
Despite his curiousity, he left and returned to the Facility and a few vehicles were leaveing, but a few remained.
The four spartan fives were standing outside the front door, and Hallend was with them.
Ultima walked up to them and was looking at Hallend, and Hallend was looking at him.
"Good, your here." Hallend said.
"What do you want." Ultima asked.
"If you cant forgive me, i understand, i did what i thought was right, and i dont regret it." Hallend said.
"....Just dont do it again, next time i wont be so willing to forgive you." Ultima said.
"I understand." Hallend said.
Ultima looked around and noticed the kids were gone.
"Where did the children go?" Ultima asked.
"They were taken to an orphanage up north." Hallend said.
"So, what now?" Kenward asked.
"For now, we head back to base, and decide our next move there." Hallend said.
After that, Hallend, Ultima, and the four spartan fives made there way back to the main base.

Hallend, Ultima, and the four spartans arrived at a meeting room within the base.
"So...whats the plan?" James asked.
"The plan is simple, we know where callus is, all we need to do is find his camp, and deal with him." Hallend said
"It cant be that easy." Ultima said.
"We know he is up to something but we are not sure what it is exactly." Hallend said.
"Go to their base north of the city, see what you can find, Callus should be there, don't kill him, we have other plans. and we will end this rebellion." Hallend said
Ultima and the spartans nodded and they left the base and began to make their way to the camp.
"So, any ideas what Callus is planning?" Hanson asked.
"No idea." Kenward said.
"Whatever it is, it cant be good." Ultima said.
"That's for sure" Kenward said.
...
Eventually Ultima and the spartans arrived at the main camp, it was not a very big, but it also wasn't small, it looked like it was meant for a much smaller operation, with only a few soldiers walking around
"That's it?" Belock asked.
"I suppose so." James said as they sneak their way into the base, taking out soldiers quietly as they went in, evently getting inside the main building of the base.
Once they went in, they triggered an alarm.
"Great....they were expecting us..." James said.
"It could be worse Ultima said.
Suddenly, parts of the ceiling open up and several turrets aimed at them, and soldiers also arrived.
"Told you." Ultima said.
the four spartans killed most of the soldiers fairly easily while Ultima leaped towards the turrets, using his shield to block most of the bullets and his sword to cut them in half, with that the fight ended rather quickly, as Ultima and the spartans went further inside the base, finding more soldiers and dealing with them as they went along.
They came across a room and opened its door, the room was fairly small, and a few papers were on a table overlooking the base.
"You're too late" a voice said, as Callus appeared out of the shadows, the spartans aimed there guns at him but Ultima signaled them to lower their guns. Ultima then walked up to Callus.
"What do you mean its too late?" Ultima asked
"The Rebellion is larger then you think...i only play a small part." Callus said smiling.
"What are you talking about?" Ultima as explosions were heard in the background. the spartans looked at each other and then Ultima.
As more explosions were heard Ultima then came to a conclusion,
"Hanson Belock, stay here and take Callus to the main base, Kenward, James, you two come with me." Ultima declared, they all nodded and Belock and Hanson stayed with Callus, Ultima James and Kenward left the building and went to where they heard the explosions.
After going through the forest, after going through a few more trees, they could see the main city, buildings were on fire, explosions were on fire, and even helicopters could be seen flying in. James, Kenward and Ultima looked at each other and nodded, and began to run towards the city.
However, once they started running, everything stopped, its as if they are paused in time, and a pause symbol appeared.
And then, a voice was heard. "...So, this is Ultima's past, or rather Omalley's." the voice said.
"Yes. yes it is." a second voice said.
...
the camera pulls back from the screen and Fuzen, Nyx, and Kenward are seen.
The screen showing Omalleys past was in front of what could only described as a blue digitized file cabinet
the area looked completely digital, and it seemed endless, filled with other cabinets, all with names on them
Kenward hits fast forward and the scene continues playing in the background, Ultima Kenward and James are running to the city.
"That is what the Archive allows us to do, it shows us, and lets us look at the unlocked pasts and futures of everyone in this world, and even others, it even shown us Kikez's past aswell as Neptune and the other neonytes aswell earlyer." Kenward noted.
"...Well, that explains a lot." Nyx said.
"Yes, it does. Though, if it can unlock pasts and futures of everybody in this universe, does that mean that mine and Nyx's futures can be seen aswell?" Fuzen asked.
"If The Archive decides to yes." Kenward confirmed.
Kenward seemed to grab the screen and push it back into the folder, when he did the file cabnet closed, he waved his arm and the section of cabnets quickly moved over, when one moved all of them did, meaning they were all connected together, it seemed.
it stopped once Fuzens name came up.
When he opened the cabnet, various pictures appeared with lines attached, the pictures seemed to represent main events, showing the main path it seemed. He made it move over and it went to the end, the line went to a last picture which was darkend and locked.
"What's with the last picture?" Nyx asked.
"That means it is locked, and cannot be seen yet." Kenward confirmed.
"Huh. So, we saw Omalley's past and I think we all know how his future turned out in the end thanks to Aro and Venus so...is there anything else you want to show?" Nyx asked.
"Yes...you see, while we were.." Kenward started before he was interupted by a beeping sound, it beeped 3 times and it seemed to scan over the Fuzen cabnet, and the Nyx cabnet further down the line.
When Kenward looked at the darkened picture, it became normal, and unlocked.
"Hmm. intereseting..." Kenward said.
"What is it?" Fuzen asked.
"..The Archive heard you, you were curious if it knew your future, it reacted and unlocked that last image, or event." Kenward said.
"...So, what's my future?" Fuzen asked.
"Lets see..." kenward says, tapping the image, it brought up an image of a large white structure. with some text on the bottom.
Kenward began to read it. "She will enter The Academy....
.hmm....odd." Kenward said.
"...She?" Nyx asked.
"Yes...it says she." Kenward says.
"Anyway, lets get back on track." Kenward said, waveing his arm and going back to Omalleys cabnet, or folder rather.
When he did, just like Fuzen it shown multiple pictures and he scrolled over to the Before Segment.
"Long story short We defended the city against the attack from the rebellion, and Callus was locked up, afterwards the gateway took Omalley to the world he would stay in for the next 12 years, during his arrival is when we became the uniguard." Kenward said.
"However, if we scroll over." Kenward said as he waved his hand, causeing it to scroll over. "you will notice something interesting." Kenward said.
Eventualy it landed on the moment where Omalley asked Lynch to marry him, and there was a separate path.
"...There is a path behind Omalley." Fuzen said.
"Not behind him, but during that moment, there was a separate path that could have happened." Kenward said.
"There were two possible events that could have happened, but didnt.
And that event is unlocked." Kenward said.
"And what is the other event?" Nyx asked.
"What would have happened if Lynch said no, and went their separate ways." Kenward said.
"I see." Fuzen said.
"...So, wait, if Omalley has an alternate path which would of happened if Lynch said no...does that mean that everybody else have alternate paths aswell?" Nyx asked.
"Yes, there is always a different path, some are more significant then others though, and if its not significant enough, it wont appear in the archive." Kenward said.
"Which means, whatever happens to Omalley, is very significant." Kenward noted.
"So...what would of happened to Omalley if he and Lynch never got together?" Fuzen asked.
"Well....lets find out." Kenward said as he went to tap the image.
the screen appeared and it shown an image of a brown cloak over Omalley, as he was walking in a desert.
"You do realise, this could get very dark, if you dont want to see, you can leave now." Kenward said.
"During my stay in the demon world after I left my family, I noticed many dark things so I think I'm used to this." Fuzen said.
"...Considering that I had an asshole brother like Erebus, this shouldn't be so bad." Nyx said.
"You say that now, well...i guess we will see." Kenward said, tapping the screen and it began to play.

*Segment - After*
The screen slowly fades in, as it does, bits and peices of a faint womens voice is heard, and a desert is seen.
"...perhaps... we should go our separate ways...." the faint womens voice seemed to say, as the large desert became more visible.
the camera then shown Omalley, wearing his brown cloak, the wind was blowing and blown the hood of his cloak off, revealing that he is wearing his old Sci-fi armor, the helmet could be seen, the orange visor was cracked in several parts, and the helmet itself looked old, as it was.
As the wind continued to blow there was mostly silence as he walked further into the seemingly endless desert. Day turned to night and night turned to day and he was still walking, eventualy the gateway appeared beside him.
"...Omalley?" gateway asked, Omalley stopped to look at the gateway, but then kept walking, the gateway followed him.
"It doesnt have to be this way, you can move on." The gateway said, Omalley stopped and turned towards him.
"...Do you really think its that simple?" Omalley asked.
"Well..." gateway started before Omalley interupted.
"I cant just simply move on after spending 12 years of my life trying to get together with her, only to fail. There will never be another Lynch, and even if there was, it wouldnt be the same." Omalley said, continueing to walk, gateway followed him.
"So....what will you do then?" Gateway asked.
"....Accept my fate...and live with it.
You should probably go." Omalley said.
"Well Omalley...it was an honor to serve you." Gateway said.
"Thank you, you have been a good friend." Omalley said.
"Well..goodbye Omalley." Gateway said.
"Goodbye...Gateway." Omalley said, as the gateway left and Omalley continued walking.
Days pass and Omalley is still walking, as Omalley continues to walk he stumbles a bit, and falls down to the ground, motionless. After a few minutes he gets back up and takes a look around, besides the desert itself, he didnt see much, so he continued to walk.
As the camera shows him walking away, it pans down to the ground, revealing his real body still laying in the same spot it was before when he fell down to the ground, he continued to walk away in the background, eventualy fadeing away in the distance.
As he walked, time sped up, his cloak began to get old and worn, going from brown to tattered and torn, his armor aged aswell, his old lance he used as ultima appeared on his right hand, and a shield on his left.
He was a shell of his former self.
*Segment - After - COMPLETE*
...
"JAMES! Get Over here!" Kenwards voice was heard, an alarm was going off in The Archive. James quickly arrived.
"Whats going on?" James asked.
"Omalleys past.....its....changeing." Kenward said.
"What do you mean?" james asked as he looked at the Archive.
It was showing Omalleys past changeing, or atleast being updated.
Allmost all the events stayed the same, except for the part where Omalley met The gateway, the crest of love, his name being Ultima, and his evolution.
"Why is it changeing?" James asked.
"I think its updateing instead." Kenward said.
Suddenly another section appeared after the before section, after the pre mentioned story, and before he entered the world he now lives in.
It was waiting to begin.
"Lets see what it wants to show us." Kenward said. And he tapped the screen
And it began to show them what happened next....
....TO BE CONTINUED IN EVOLUTION ORIGINS....
