Egor’s Creation (Epilog)

Kronos entered the clouds and it got cold.
A flash of light and he heard “BEHOLD!!”
Then, next he knew he was here.
He didn’t know where, that was clear.
He was cast into outer darkness by God.
He had no feeling. That was odd.
There was no up, there was no down.
There was nothing else around.
There was no cold, there was no hot.
Was he moving or in one spot?
There was no black. There was no light.
He could not see. He had no sight.
There was no sound, no feeling either.
He seemed to be floating in an ether.
He couldn’t move. Did he have a body?
He had never felt so oddly.
There was no direction, no sense of time.
There was only one thing, that was his mind.
Everything else ceased to exist.
Only his mind, and that was it.
Creation had not happened here.
So, he had nothing to fear.
Kronos the monster, the living ‘it.’
It ranted and raved and had a fit.
It wasn’t human. Not created by God.
Yet, it was alive. How very odd.
A living entity to go on for eternity.
Only it’s mind gave it surety.
It screamed, cursing Anika in it’s mind.
There was no sound, no passing of time.
Soon, it was totally insane.
Ranting, raving, and screaming Anika’s name.
It was not of God,— so here it would remain.

Egor didn’t fare well with his jump into the future.
He knew the danger, now made only too clear.
He was now hunchback and had a limp.
He looked much older, but he wouldn’t vent.
He knew he would be safe here from what he did.
There was nothing here he had to keep hid.

The Wizards were celebrating big time after victory.
For a while there the outcome was a little sticky.
Zeus was enjoying the company of the panthers.
He scratched them as they rubbed against him and purred.
Then, he told Anika God had had it with man.
Magic would soon disappear from the land.
Every generation after that was born without it.
Magic became legend and lore. That was it.
Except for magical creatures and places.
Lore to humans, few saw their faces.
Their world was forbidden mostly to man.
Very few got to visit that land.
But, one day, magic would return big time.
Sent by God to save all mankind.
Way in the future, the full force would be heading
to a place called Armageddon.

Egor’s Creation (Part 8)

Kronos began destroying more things.
Killing anyone in his sight, it seems.
Asglow and Egor just shook their heads.
At this rate all would be dead.
Then, a number of Wizards did appear.
Evangelica was with them. She was near.
She called to Asglow. He looked at her.
Kronos thought something would occur.
He pointed his wand and yelled “Rigormorti.”
Evangelica fell dead before their eyes.
“You bastard!!” screamed Asglow. “That was my mother!!”
“Well, I didn’t think it was your brother.”
Kronos laughed and zapped away.
Asglow knew then that he would kill him one day.
Suddenly, lightning bolts started raining down.
They were coming from all around.
Asglow deflected them using positive and negative magic.
If he didn’t succeed, the results would be tragic.
More and more Wizards appeared all around.
All around Asglow bolts hit the ground.
Egor was behind Asglow guarding his back.
He was scared. About to have a heart attack.
Asglow was holding his own, but barely.
Egor knew that things were getting pretty hairy.
Kronos appeared behind some Wizards.
He used Warlock fire to cook their gizzards.
He zapped around all over the place.
Killing Wizards at a leisurely pace.
“Anika!!” he screamed at the top of his lungs.
“Show yourself and bring all your guns.”
Asglow had his hands completely full.
So much so that it was taking it’s toll.
He couldn’t zap back in time to escape.
Just holding his own was all he could take.
Kronos zapped back and black magic flew.
He was disrupting the balance between the two.
Asglow was rapidly losing control.
Egor felt it and zapping back in time, he did go.
Kronos suddenly saw Anika appear.
He screamed and charged without any fear.
Anika zapped away and Kronos did follow.
It was too late. He had left a hollow.
Asglow lost control and his magic went to hell.
He was blown apart. Every single cell.
Anika zapped to the middle of the whirlwind.
It was horrendous. She thought she was done in.
Then Pegasus appeared nearby.
She jumped on his back and he did fly.
He took off with tremendous speed.
Up, up, and over the lip, he did succeed.
Kronos appeared immediately after.
He tried to follow, but Pegasus was faster.
The whirlwind got stronger.
First, it pulled him down and held him longer.
He couldn’t fly, or zap away.
Nothing was working for him that day.
Then the whirlwind began to suck him up.
He screamed “Anika, you stinking slut!!”
He was sucked up and into the clouds.
The whirlwind slammed closed, and it was loud.
In the meantime Egor went back.
He had fallen right into their trap.
They immediately wrapped him in a magical rope.
His powers were done. He couldn’t cope.
Later, he was brought before Anika.
She removed all his magical powers. Neat huh?
He pleaded that the castle not be destroyed.
“Send it far away. I will go with it “ he rejoiced.
Zeus said he could accomplish that.
The castle was sent away, as a matter of fact.
It went to what would later become Germany.
Egor was sent too. Now he was free.
He still had the amulet. It activated.
Taking him and the castle to what awaited.
The spell was set to kick in if he was sent.
So, way off to the future he went.
The castle would be bought by Dr Frankenstein.
Egor helped him with what he had in mind.
To create life, but in a different way.
But, that is a story for another day.
Before the castle was sent on it’s way,
all books were destroyed that very day.
But, what happened to Kronos many may say?
Read the epilog to see what it may say.

Egor’s Creation (Part 7)

When the Wizards heard what Kronos did.
The ruined town, the threatened kid.
They were ready to flip their lid.
Anika convinced them to wait on their bid.
“I need to talk to the person who provided the bolts.”
“I think he could help us all the most.”
She would seek help from Zeus himself.
Tell him all that happened herself.
To Mt. Olympus, Anika and family went.
They appeared there like they were sent.
Anika pleaded her case to Zeus.
“Without your help he will cook our goose.”
Zeus considered all of this for a while.
Then, his face broke out in a smile.
“I have a plan that just might work.”
“It is something that won’t be a quirk.”
“All my family here will have to help.”
“It won’t be lightening bolts to make him melt.”
“We have the power to make a whirlwind.”
“Together we can make it twirl him.”
“It will suck him up into the air.”
“God will deal with him from there.”
“He won’t be able to zap away or fly out of it.”
“The power will be new.He won’t know the trick.”
“But, the trick will be to get him to zap in.”
“Do you know a way we can do this and trap him?”
Anika said “I think I do know a way.”
“More than anything, Kronos wants to have me at bay.”
“He will follow me into the whirling inferno”
“How I will get out, I just don’t know?”
“I think I can handle that.” Zeus said with a smile.
They started making plans. It would take awhile.
In the meantime, Kronos was getting mad.
“I won’t cook a baby. Does that make you glad?”
“What did you have in mind then dear Dad?”
“Come, I will show you what came to mind.”
They zapped back to the ruined town line.
Kronos used magic to erect a large cross.
Then he covered it with sticky moss.
He produced a mannequin that looked like Anika.
It was nailed to the cross. It would freak ya.
Wizards who were sent to spy freaked out.
They yelled “What the hell is this about?”
Kronos killed all, but one Wizard then.
He said “Go tell the others this will happen to them..”
The Wizard zapped back to Vantera in a panic.
“Kronos has become a killing mechanic.”
He told them all that was seen and said.
They knew, above all, Kronos wanted Anika dead.
Anika and family zapped back to get the news.
“We have no more time to pick and choose.”
She told them about Zeus and his plan.
It was a gamble, but they would do what they can.
“The Lumicates told me to draw from the past.”
“I think I know what that means at last.”
“More than anything Kronos wants to kill me.”
“I will be the bait to set us free.”
All Wizards feared for her life.
This news just added to their overall strife.
But, what will happen will happen it seems.
It was one in a million. Maybe just a dream.

Egor’s Creation (Part 6)

Anika said ”Asglow is back.”
“He will be careful now with his time trap.”
“Kronos sounds like a raving lunatic.”
“He has no soul, so, no conscience. Not a bit.”
“He would kill his own mother if she got in his way.”
“Then laugh about it afterwards, what can I say.”
“We are in deep doo doo here.” Sirle said.
“If we don’t act soon, we will all be dead.”
Anika spoke to Anathea with little help.
She zapped to the Lumicates to see how they felt.
They said “A million possibilities, but only one
will have the outcome where you overcome.”
“What exactly does that mean?” She said.
“In all the others you end up dead.”
“I want to hear about how I can survive.”
“For that outcome you will have to strive.”
“That is why I am here right now.”
“The chances are so slim, we can’t say how.”
“We don’t get a clear focus at this time.”
“We can say, draw on the past. It’s not a crime.”
This riddle did not help Anika very much.
She didn’t want to use it as a crutch.
They had a meeting for all Wizards.
The council of 9 presided. They felt like lizards.
When told what was going on, Wizards blanched.
They yelled “Who gave Kronos another chance?”
All details were laid out to them.
“We are done for, we cannot win.”
“Defeatist attitude is not needed here.”
“All that does is promote more fear.”
“The Lumicates said for us to draw on the past.”
“I have no idea what spell we can cast.”
“I will fight in this war.” Said Evangelica.
“If Asglow is back, he may listen if I yell and cuss.”
“Sorry for the outburst. I am a little upset.”
“It is understandable. You and all the rest.”
Anika brought out a lightning bolt.
All there gasped. “I have something for you folk.”
Outside, she gave them a demonstration.
They were so shocked, they had no explanation.
“It is many times more powerful than my lance.”
“All of us will have use of it with practice and chants.”
She showed them how to use the bolt and to make more.
They weren’t talking about losing so much anymore.
“It will take more, I am afraid to say.”
“We will remember forever the final day.”
They went back and began to make more solid plans.
In the meantime, Kronos was getting anxious hands.
He was zapping things all around.
Blowing them up without a frown.
“We have to have a plan.” Said Asglow and Egor.
“I’ll show you a plan” said Kronos, as he walked out the door.
The others followed as he zapped into town.
He started zapping everything around.
In no time, he had leveled the town.
No one was left alive. No one was found.
“Have you gone nuts!!” yelled Asglow.
“Not at all.” Said Kronos. “This is not a show.”
“What I did will have the Wizards responding .”
“If it doesn’t, I’ll cook a baby, a fondling.”
“How can you talk about such cruelty?”
“Are you trying to make a fool out of me?”
“This doesn’t bother me at all.”
“I have no soul, so I can kill them all.”
What will Kronos do next?
Will it be what we expect?
Keep reading. There is much more to come.
We are getting ready for a lot of fun.
