At The Crossroad Chapter 52

A/N: Note that the introduction is based on human view of how things happen. So basically when you start to read the later chapters, some things might change. However, you'll understand lucidly.) In the year 2067,Benders came into existence in the human world. They were known as a violent creatures, venting out their anger on humans. According to the legends, Benders were banished by their own king, named, Frederick Harlow, probably because they betrayed their own land. Avatar created a passageway to earth, a way for them to learn and have a change of heart. They were called Viatores, The Passengers. Yeah, they changed. They evolve to become a ferocious beast, whom humans dread. Their species hurt humans for years, until research found a substance known as Mercury. It was found in the cave that linked them to earth. A cave that couldn't be weakened or destroyed by any earthly weapons. Mercury weaken this cruel creatures faster. They became workers to human, but humans were not as cruel as they are. Rules guarded them ;where you can't hurt or imprison any of this foreign creatures unless the bender was found guilty. Nothing last forever, right? Well things changed in 3077. Guess, it takes more than mercury to weaken these bitches. A bastard, tyrant, Damon Adrian, led the war humans know as Mass. A life changing war. A man powerful enough to overthrone our government, capable to instill fears in humans, and can cause pain — mentally and physically — to us, humans. One whom mercury never affects, could heal other weak bender and able to use our weapons against us. Our might was negligible to theirs. Seven commanders of his for seven continents, and all bowed, served, and feared him. Rumour clarifies that in the year 3082, after conquering the world that he closed the cave, no humans knew why. No one dared to ask him. On my eighteenth birthday, I was sent as a gift to the Rex himself, whom no humans can look at in the eye, trembles at his presence and bows to him on sightedness. I was meant to be his emit but that monosyllabic word called fate has it plans under-wrapped. My name's Liliana Roslyn , born in 3190,raised in a hidden foster home, along with other kids of my age. On my 5th birthday, we got ambushed by commander Felix's guard. They murdered our foster parent and some kids, the wanna-run-away kids. They made us watch each and every incident, like in the movies, we used to watch seldomly, as they taunt and scream shrilly at us in every night mare. Benders took us to a camp, or maybe a school. Whatever they call that goddamned place! A place where humans learn how to be submissive and become either "emit, dator, or emunctor lactis ". Emit is a slave that buys from benders, and by the word buys, it means, in order to continue to live and survive which is known to benders as a thing that one buys, you have to give them your blood which is also known to benders as money in human terms. The humans will be injected with mercury, which taints the blood, and then the human get detached by extracting the mercury along with the blood. "Tainted" is it name. The tainted blood is kept for sometimes, before being used by the bender by injecting it into their body. It's said to help replenish their weaknesses and powers. It is known that a bender weakness increases as their time on earth increases. A substance poisonous to them when in their blood now became a precious tool for them when in humans blood. Dator means a slave that give. By give- in order for the human to survive and live, they must provide benders, continuity of life (children). Dator is a slave that... You know, benders need humans to multiply, so they keep some humans as dator. A human that gives birth. A male and female human are assigned to a mission, nothing more than to get pregnant and as soon as the baby's out the child is taken out from the mothers arm, never to see each other again then transferred to an Emunctor lactis. A emunctor lactis is a slave that milks the child, the dator's child. These categories are also responsible for the upbringing of the child. As soon as the child reaches 3 years old. They get to know the life they have been pulled out to and how wicked it is. King of all benders 101 principle states that; A human is free to live, safe and sound, not enslaved when they aged 50 years and onward. Bullshit!That's the rule's name. Those bitches are going to rot in hell, well, if one's prepared for them, maybe. After the mass, no human, I mean not even a single one has ever lived beyond 35 years. Humans have an expiring date now. In some continent like Australia. Rumors declared that a human of 56 years once lived there. I know there's a truth behind it and the truth is that it's all a lie. These foreign creatures have won and dominated earth by their overwhelming and extreme powers. Weak creatures, humans, we are doomed. In fact, no word could fit the miserable fate, we got stuck in. The Seven Commanders Ruling The Seven Continents Australia ruled by Andrew Felix. A air bender commander. He's known as a womanizer and most girls love him. They would consider themselves lucky if they got transferred to his continent. North America ruled by Oliver Jace. A water bender commander, known as an AB blood type lover. He believed it as the best and responsible for making him the strong ruthless man he's recognized as. Europe ruled by Andrew Lucas, a brother to Andrew Felix and the Rex. A callous and a cold-hearted water bender commander. No human want to be in his continent, since it's all full of anguish and pang. Antarctica ruled by Atticus Chester, a human head lover. He kills without remorse when he's stressed and gains pleasure by seizing oxygen from them. A pernicious air bender commander. South America ruled by Chris Andy. A duteous water bender. He hurts humans physically, mentally and sexually until they beg for death. Also called The Butcher. Asia ruled by Cornelio Lorenzo. A luxurious life-ful man. Rancor fret in the malignant beast. He kills for fun. Rumoured to bath in Tainted. A fire bender commander. Africa ruled by Ramon Diego. An earth bender commander. "... Know how to find Diamond. Africa's gate is widely open... ". That's his motto. Lose tracks of diamond then death is roaming around you! A continent for mostly men... ---------------------------- Powers Of Each Benders Species -Water benders are the powerful and mightiest ever known benders. A well experienced bender rains water before war, sometimes during war if they got caught off guard. Anything their water touches, they can control it. Which makes them, sometimes able to control all elements... -Fire bender, the fiercest of them all. They are also called Nuclear benders. Its a name given to them during the Mass. They discover their new ability of controlling any earthly weapons, which they used against us during the war. They control fire and substances that could result to it. -Air benders are the fastest telepathic known benders, could control air, whatever diffuses. They teep any creatures. Also hear people from afar. -Earth benders are the incredibly strong known benders. Controlling any solid materials is their perfection and they are rumoured to be feared by water bender. They say water is too soft to affect them and frozen water has no impact either. * ********************************* My goals were simple, you know, go to school, piss a Viatores off, and try to act dominant. I cannot be submissive, never. Well, punishment was my golden award, and I gain it everyday, every time I piss one off. I'm sure my bruises must have made an art on my body. "Never give up, just one more day!" That's the motto I would use to endure the pain. It helped. It kept me going. Girls in this goddamn school are bullshit, dorkazoids rather, an excuse to human race. Most of them wish to become an emunctor lactis or worst dator. Our fate will be decided tomorrow, a dreadful day for us all, I, nope! I've been waiting all my years...18 to be exact, just to see this day. I already know my fate, it's death. Even every humans and benders in this goddamn school could testify to it. They actually never how much greatness that luxury means to me. The day my trouble will be over, finally free from bondage. Birthday await, freedom await. Whoop...dee...doo.
