Chapter 1 Lets get started!

Chapter 1 

As the sun appeared over the horizon, a solemnly figure stood on a cliffside deep in thought. If someone was there, they would have noticed his serious expression and a big frown on his face. 

Atos was a little lost. He was in the middle of a project of his when he suddenly found himself on this cliff. As he looked down, and the golden rays of the sun started to permeate the forest and its surroundings he could only think about Earth and the beauty he might never see again. 

His equipment showed no connection to any of the satellites or communication stations that were deployed throughout his territory. 

He was yanked here, wherever the hell he was, and could not do anything about it! All the power, all of the protection he had amounted to nothing when something so improbable and so damn infuriating happened! Thought the lost ruler, while clenching his gauntleted fists and trying to burn a hole into the sun with his intense gaze! 

“No matter what, I will get back to my people, no one will be able to stop ME!” He stated in a mild, but dangerous tone and finished in a furious bellow. 

Birds and several small animals were disturbed in his surroundings, but he could not care less. As he was torn between uncertainty, rage and curiousness! 

He has been alive for a long time now, and of those years he spent fighting the majority of! He would NOT be fazed by this ridiculous, and unprecedent anomaly that happened to him! He had a goal, he had important people and despicable enemies waiting for him, he could not just get lost all of a sudden.... 

The leader felt that it was futile to froth in rage, as no matter how much he wanted to get back and do his duty, he would not appear in his palace just because he wished for it. 

Still, in his desperation, he did the thing that he thought he would never do again. After so many losses and so much suffering, both for him and his people, he wanted to forget about it. Wanted to discard it, as useless and stupid...yet, he could not!  

So, he settled down on his knees for one last time, and prayed, prayed for a solution and for his people to be alright even without him! He gave in to the oh so missed embrace of acceptance and peace he always felt when he did it. No matter how much he wanted to dismiss it, he felt that way whenever he remembered it before, and now while doing it again much more so! 

At first, he did not notice anything strange, but when he reached the 5th minute in his prayer, something new happened. He almost stumbled forward in his heavy armor, but managed to keep himself from showing an unworthy display. 

When he was stabilized, he looked around confused, and he was at a loss about what happened. There was no one in his close proximity, at least no one that he or his sensors could detect. 

If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

Still, he felt it, he was sure of it! He received an answer. Something new appeared in his head, that was not there before. While his equipment did not manage to record the phenomenon, and the recording of the previous minutes showed nothing amiss, the knowledge in his head told otherwise. 

God, answered his prayers, finally. He could not believe it, and at first got really angry that he and his people’s suffering was ignored for so long. Why did he not communicate with them before, if he did it now, was the question in his mind. Yet, when he went through his newfound knowledge he calmed down somewhat. 

His situation seemed to be not as dire as he has thought before, it seemed, yet more complicated at the same time too. 

He seemed to be in a plain between universes, right “above” his original one. This place was different form his own in two major things, and they were a special energy that existed inside it, and that it was an almost limitless place with previously unimaginable wonders.  

The more he read the message in his mind, the more he calmed down, and at the end he even had a smile on his face. 

God, did not abandon them, he was just unable to help them directly before. This new energy seemed to be the connection that was missing, and now that he arrived here, he managed to make a connection between them. 

That he could not make a connection again, he tried numerous times, seemed to be because he did not yet have this special energy available for him.  

According to the message, God could only transport him now was because in his whole original universe, there was only enough special energy for it. God had been collecting this energy for years now, and had to use that small amount to bring him along so they would have a better chance against their foes. 

The reason he was not worried anymore was because this universe and his own had a gap between them. God said, that if he managed to use this energy, he could build a gateway between the two universes and if God helped him a little, they could even manipulate time a bit so he will arrive at the moment of his departure.  

It is still possible to open the gate with just the energy, but the time of his arrival would be uncertain then. Still, with both temporal and other magic mumbo jumbo together, he knew that he had around five hundred to a thousand years to prepare and reach this new goal of his.  

After that, the gate God opened would be closed and the two universes would have completely jumbled up time fields.  

It is a shame God was exhausted, and he could not communicate with him more, but he used up almost all of his energy just to take him here. 

In a universe where this special energy was so scarce, praying could only influence God in small amounts. That is why we could not communicate with him before. Without the link, that is this energy, he could only gather minuscule amounts of power. The only thing that could compensate somewhat are numbers, but the situation was not the best at home religion wise. 

Still, he had to analyze this interesting energy, as it will most likely help the human race immensely! The possibilities were endless, and he was sure that with the help of this new world he is goingt to reach unprecedent heights! 

After thinking everything through, it was already noon, and he realized that he just kept standing there on the cliffside like some baboon. 

He was a little embarrassed, and he thanked God that no one was around him. He was not this lost in thoughts, since the start of the war at home... 

And just like that, he ruthlessly suppressed the nostalgic feeling, and concentrated on his mission. 

He had a world to conquer, and he could not wait to get started!
