A flash of light. He wondered where he was and how he got there. The ground beneath him began to tremble and the cries of the people could be heard from a great distance. Standing on a high mountain, he could see the destruction caused by ginormous beasts of all kinds. His eyes then shifted to a beast who drew his attention with its great height, and whose roar could be heard from a distance as it shook the earth to it knees.
It brought forth death and destruction whereever it went. Just then, the earth began to crack at each corner of the world, the cracks spreading like wild plagues.
Hiro! Hiro!!!... Amata called out to him;
"What are you doing out here in the stable", Amata asked. "Your beloved wonders where you went".
He looked confused but could not show it, trying to process how he got there, for all he could remember was yesterday, sparring with Bruce Wee, and now he was out here.
"It's been six months since you left the kingdom", Amata said. "We were all worried, grandpa too was worried, you were supposed to protect us".
Amata explained to him about the death of grandpa Bau Khan, Bruce Wee, Queen Jade and how Uriel became human.
Hiro! Hiro!...
He was speechless and all he could say was, "six months.”
"You failed us all, Hiro", Amata said. "I was wrong about you".
Just then; the curtain in the royal place was opened by a young maid. Queen Jade looked at Hiro in a romantic way and gave him a pleasant kiss to the cheek.
"Morning, my love", Queen Jade said, kissing him softly on his lips.
"Uhn!, Yeah. Morning beautiful", Hiro replied, kissing her back.
(Hiro Soliloquy) "It was all a dream", Hiro said. "A nightmare".
Later that day, trying to recall all that had happened, he could not stop pondering the nightmare over and over again.
"You looked worried", Amata said. "If there's one thing you're not good at, it is hiding your worries from me". She smiled.
Looking her way, Hiro smirked at Amata; "You know me all too well", he replied.
Later that day, a group of people walked into the kingdom and demanded to speak with the king concerning an urgent matter at hand. They met and discussed with the king and queen in the palace.
We are from the Tanzi tribe and our people are dying.
Somehow the king's sorcerer, known as Ba Jizux, is now in power, ruling in disguise with the king's image,
We believe he's the root to this evil happening, ever since he met with the great dragon.
Everything began to fall apart;
Our people heard of a great prophecy that one day the Messiah will come to our aid
But in order for our people not to die before that time,
We've come to seek for your aid in freeing our kingdom from this suffering.
After their complaints, Queen Jade looked at Hiro without uttering a word, deep down within him she knows he cares but wouldn't want to interfere with their challenges.
"Make yourself at home", Queen Jade said. "Please make sure our guest is well satisfied," she ordered the guards as they departed.
"What troubles you, my love?" Queen Jade asked. "I can feel something is wrong".
Hiro, looking into her eyes, could barely utter a word, just then;
I had a dream and it was horrifying.
Everyone I knew, everyone I loved all died before my very eyes,
I couldn't save them all, I couldn't save you.
What if I can't, I don't want to lose you
I don't want to lose my grandpa or Amata.
"It's okay", Queen Jade said, slightly patting his head.
Meanwhile, in Gypet kingdom, Ba Jizux who killed the former king and was using his image to rule as king, went down to the secret dungeon chamber to speak to the great dragon, for in him he was given a horn, which, when blown, would summon the unspeakable to terrorize the earth.
Later in the evening, out in the field, Uriel met with Bruce Wee telling him that "soon the moment which is at hand is drawing nigh". For there would be more to come. In order to save humanity, they must first accept being saved, for not all are worth saving. Just then, an arrow flew from the sky out of nowhere in full speed aiming at Bruce Wee, sending him flying and destroying the surroundings within. The impact of the arrow was so great that it extended its length after been caught by Bruce Wee, which caused him to move uncontrollably out of balance. Catching the arrow, he sent it back to where it came from. Uriel was unaware of its presence, and in a quick rush went to meet up with Bruce Wee who was slightly hurt by the arrow in his left hand.

"Are you alright, Bruce?" Uriel asked. "You're hurt".
"I’m fine", Bruce Wee replied. "It's nothing". The pain began to heal itself.
"What was that", Bruce Wee asked. "How come you never sensed it?"
"It's unlikely, except…" Uriel replied, "angels can't sense the arrows of death, it's considered to be our only weakness. Only the three highest hierarchy of angels are immune to its effects, for only they could outmatch one another".
The arrow made its way back to the sender in Gypet kingdom. The one who sent it, was the one known as Ba Jizux. Having grown tenfold, the arrow aimed at his right eye causing him instant blindness.
He screamed in excruciating pain from the arrow as he pulled it out, along with his left eye, saying;
The chosen one lives on with the armor of God, it's only a matter of time before he runs out,
The heavenly rules will be broken,
Every chain will be broken,
He'll walk the earth once more.
For now, the emissary of Yahweh walketh freely
For even Gods must succumb to the call of the universe.
Lifting up the horns on his right hand, Ba Jizux sounded the alarm which woke up something from the depths of the sea and that which slept underneath the mountains to do his bidding.
The next day, the knights and the tribal leaders of Tanzi tribes came to seek audience from the King and Queen for the safety of their kingdom and to dethrone the king's sorcerer Ba Jizux.
"You need to stay here with the people, they need their king", Uriel said. "For I too am staying to protect this kingdom".
Hiro insisted on going, but Uriel urged him to stay, for Joel, Bruce and the captain would take some knights with them to escort their guests to sort out things, for if things got out of hand, Joel would be quick to inform them.
Meanwhile in Medo-persya kingdom, king Mammon Sa was communicating with Ba Jizux "on the wall of mirrors," a magical mirror for instant communication.
The knights arrived at a small village near the east coast, which was not terrorized by demons, but their presence was a danger to the village entirely, and horde of demons began approaching in their direction.
"Up in the sky, look", one of the villagers said. "It’s the demons and they are heading this way".
Captain Xiao Kain insisted that they fight their way through as not to get the villagers in harm's way.
The knights fought their way to defend the villagers from the hands to the demons, causing mayhem on the village. After the defeat of the demons, Joel sensed more coming their way as he told them they needed to leave in order to secure the lives of the village.
Three weeks later, they arrived at "Napaj town," just outside the border of Gypet kingdom. It was infested with demons roaming around.
Meanwhile in the unified kingdom, which was once known as Zhou to Jin kingdom and Nylobab kingdom in their separation, but now together to form the "Zhou Babylon kingdom". It had been named by Morris, the Librarian of Zhou to Jin kingdom. Out in the ocean, the sea connecting both kingdoms had been extended to a great length, becoming one. That which was once divided by great magic had had its barriers broken down.
The sea wavered in great tribulation as a mighty tempest began to blow, one that could be felt all over the kingdom and that was causing severe cold and atmosphere changes.
Looking through the window, King Hiro saw the wrath of the seas, knowing its awareness and what is about to come.
I feel it as it feels me, its presence is obscure to the human understanding and awareness
Its rage grows stronger like never before
Bringing with it the wrath of the seven seas
...
Just then he remembered the saying of Sarakiel: "Beware of the creature that lies beneath the depths of the sea and that which sleeps under the mountains, beware of the accursed one, for they wait patiently to devour anything within its path".
Recalling that moment brought forth the messages to him, it was a trap and now they were walking right into it.
"I've to warn them", Hiro said to himself. He took off in an instant, just about to pass the sea, when giant tentacles rushed out of the sea, causing damage to its surroundings. A giant tentacle tossed Hiro aside like it was nothing, shattering a rock as it caused him to fall into the ocean, deep down. As the creature’s tentacles pushed him to the bottom of the ocean, he could see its face. The sea monster looked like a water dragon, a sea serpent like creature, having six heads and seven horns.
Meanwhile, in first heaven, the rising rage of the leviathan, the beast of the ocean, ruler of the seven seas, could be seen by Yomyael, who thought within herself;
Can you pull in Leviathan with a fishhook
or tie down its tongue with a rope?
Can you put a cord through its nose
or pierce its jaw with a hook?
Will it keep begging you for mercy?
Will it speak to you with gentle words?
Will it make an agreement with you
for you to take it as your slave for life?
Can you make a pet of it like a bird
Or put it on a leash for the young women in your house?
Will traders barter for it?
Will they divide it up among the merchants?
Can you fill its hide with harpoons
or its head with fishing spears?
If you lay a hand on it,
you will remember the struggle and never do it again!
Any hope of subduing it is false;
the mere sight of it is overpowering.
No one is fierce enough to rouse it.
Who then is able to stand against me?
Who has a claim against me that I must pay?
Everything under heaven belongs to me.
“I will not fail to speak of Leviathan’s limbs,
its strength and its graceful form.
Who can strip off its outer coat?
Who can penetrate its double coat of armor
Who dares open the doors of its mouth,
ringed about with fearsome teeth?
Its back has rows of shields
tightly sealed together;
each is so close to the next
that no air can pass between.
They are joined fast to one another;
they cling together and cannot be parted.
Its snorting throws out flashes of light;
its eyes are like the rays of dawn.
Flames stream from its mouth;
sparks of fire shoot out.
Smoke pours from its nostrils
as from a boiling pot over burning reeds.
Its breath sets coals ablaze,
and flames dart from its mouth.
Strength resides in its neck;
dismay goes before it.
The folds of its flesh are tightly joined;
they are firm and immovable.
Its chest is hard as rock,
hard as a lower millstone.
When it rises up, the mighty are terrified;
they retreat before its thrashing.
The sword that reaches it has no effect,
nor does the spear or the dart or the javelin.
Iron it treats like straw
and bronze like rotten wood.
Arrows do not make it flee;
slingstones are like chaff to it.
A club seems to it but a piece of straw;
it laughs at the rattling of the lance.
Its undersides are jagged potsherds,
leaving a trail in the mud like a threshing sledge.
It makes the depths churn like a boiling caldron
and stirs up the sea like a pot of ointment.
It leaves a glistening wake behind it;
one would think the deep had white hair.
Nothing on earth is its equal
a creature without fear.
It looks down on all that are haughty;
it is king over all that are proud.
"It'll take more than the light bearer and armor of God to defeat leviathan, let alone behemoth", Yomyael said. "No one has ever been able to put out this creature since the dawn of creation".
