Chapter 2 - " The First Distortion"

MK.BOSS – THE BLUE SAGA

Saga – Chapter 2: The First Distortion

2 hours ago, in India…

The sky trembles.

A massive spaceship tears through the clouds—

its engines roaring like a storm unleashed.

A deep vibration spreads across the air as the craft slowly descends…

dust spiraling outward…

windows shaking…

people in the distance freezing in fear.

The ship lands.

BOOOOOOM—

The ground cracks slightly under its weight.

For a moment… everything goes silent.

Then—

HISSSSSSS—

The hatch opens.

Cold air escapes from within.

Several figures step out.

Their silhouettes sharp against the fading light.

Unknown - It's been a while… this planet has changed a lot.

Unknown 2 - Why are you saying this, Leader? Have you been here before?

Unknown - Yes… around 5 years ago.

In Earth terms.

Back then… things were simpler. Slower.

But now…

(He scans the surroundings)

Unknown - Humans have progressed… faster than expected.

Unknown 2 - Then you must know a lot about this planet.

Unknown - Maybe.

But we don't have time for nostalgia.

(voice sharpens)

Unknown - We have to find him. Hurry up.

Io - Showing location… signal locked. He is here.

Unknown - Good.

(steps forward)

Unknown - Everyone… report.

Unknown - Io?

Io - Present, leader ( -_- )

But… I'm literally standing in front of you.

Unknown - Nebula?

Nebula - Present, leader.

Unknown - Trillium?

Trillium - Present, leader… wo… hoo, finally some action.

Unknown - And… my younger brother, Nairo.

Nairo - ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ Ahhhh…

Why did we even come here?

We should've just left him here. That idiot isn't worth it.

Unknown - I understand your frustration.

(voice calm… but firm)

Unknown - But he's still one of us.

I sent him here 4 days ago… according to Earth.

(pauses)

Unknown - But here… it's been 4 months.

Silence.

Nebula - That's… impossible.

Unknown - Exactly.

Unknown - Something is wrong.

Unknown - Not just with him…

Unknown - But with time itself.

They move forward.

Their footsteps echo on the broken road.

A crowd gathers ahead—

people whispering… panicking… pulling back.

Nebula - Leader… what's happening there?

Unknown - Let's see.

They push through the crowd.

Two men are fighting.

Punches thrown wildly.

Anger. Chaos. Noise.

Unknown - (-_-) Humans…

Always the same.

Fighting over meaningless things.

But then—

Something changes.

A crack.

CRACK—

Their bodies begin to change.

Bones shift.

Muscles swell.

Clothes rip apart—

RRRRRIP—

Their bodies expand unnaturally.

People scream.

Heads distort—

Then—

Disappear.

No ears.

No identity.

Hair erupts across their entire bodies.

They become monsters.

Cygon - HAAAAAAAHHHHH—

The ground trembles.

Unknown - Hm…

What is this…

Nebula - Leader… are you sure?

Unknown - Yes.

It's a Cygon.

One Cygon lunges toward a girl—

Cygon - HAAAAAAAA—

Unknown - Platinum Apex…

HSSSSSS—

A spinning weapon slices through the air—

WHOOOOSH—

It strikes the Cygon.

It freezes instantly.

Unknown - The most dangerous neurotoxin from our planet…

Unknown - Once it enters the body…

Unknown - Movement stops.

Unknown - Permanently.

But suddenly—

The Cygon's body begins to swell.

Veins bulge.

Energy pulses violently.

Unknown - What…?

Unknown - No—

Unknown - Gen 2… Activate!

In a flash—

The leader dashes forward—

Grabs the girl—

A shield forms around them—

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM—

The explosion tears through everything.

Buildings crack.

Debris flies.

Smoke fills the air.

But the shield holds.

Unbroken.

Girl - h…h… where am I…?

Unknown - Hmm ^_^

You're safe now.

Girl - Thank you… big sister (π_π)

Unknown - No problem.

Elsewhere—

Another Cygon charges forward—

Nairo - Finally.

Gen 6… Gama Beam!

A concentrated beam fires—

SHHHHHHHHH—

Trillium - Gen 3… Silver Dust!

Millions of particles scatter—

cutting through the air—

HHHHHHHH—

The attacks collide—

But—

The Cygon ROARS—

Cygon - AAAAAAAAAAA—

Its body expands further—

It SMASHES buildings apart—

BOOM—

CRASH—

Trillium - It's not working! What do we do?!

Nairo - Idiot!

Don't lose focus!

Gen 5… Paitho—

He fires—

The arrow pierces—

BOOOOOOM—

Half of the Cygon's face explodes.

Flesh tearing—

Energy bursting—

Trillium - That's it! Keep going!

Gen 8… Mikaro!

A glowing yellow bullet tears forward—

Nairo attacks again—

Relentless—

Cygon - AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH—

Girl - Who are you…?

Unknown - Me?

(slight smile)

Unknown - I'm the leader.

Unknown - My name is… Nova.

The Cygon twitches—

Its body distorts again—

Cygon - HHHHHHHHH—

Something is changing.

Something worse.

Nairo - Look at him… creepy (・o・)

Trillium - (-_-) Obviously.

Because I'm stronger than you.

Nairo - In your dreams ᕙ( ~ . ~ )ᕗ

Cygon - Shin… the… sa…

Everything freezes.

Nairo - What—

Trillium - That sound—

Nebula - Leader!!

Io - Oh no—

Nova - Hmmm…

(as if expecting it)

Nova - I knew this would happen.

Nova - Platinum Apex… Level 3.

Silence.

Then—

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM—

A massive explosion engulfs everything.

Light swallows the battlefield.

Shockwaves ripple outward.

Smoke spreads across the sky.

Minutes later—

The smoke clears.

A giant crater remains.

Everything destroyed.

Io - (_) What… happened here…

Did I reach Lako…?

Nova stands still.

Calm.

Her shield protecting everyone.

Untouched.

Nairo - ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ I had it under control.

Why did you interfere?

Nova - Hmmm…

Kids shouldn't talk…

when elders are working.

Nebula - Io! Get up!

Io - What—?! I'm alive?!

Nebula - Obviously, idiot.

The leader protected us.

Trillium - We were finally enjoying the fight…

You ruined it.

Nova - Yes.

I saw your "enjoyment"…

Getting beaten up.

Now move.

Nova - Io.

Take its head to the lab.

Io - W-What?!

You cut its head off?! \(°o°)/

Nova - Yes.

We need answers.

Nova - That power…

It wasn't normal.

They begin to leave.

Footsteps echo again.

Then—

A voice.

Old Man - Wait… kid.

Nova stops.

Nova - Hmm?

What is it, old man? (^_^)

Old Man - What if I told you…

You are going to die soon?

Nova - What nonsense are you talking about?

Old Man - Your death…

Will come…

From your love.

Silence.

Nova freezes.

For the first time—

Her expression changes.

Nova - Impossible…

That can't happen.

You're insane.

The old man steps closer.

Slow. Calm.

He leans toward her ear—

Old Man - (whispers something)

Nova's eyes widen.

Nova - What…

What are you saying… I…?

Nebula - LEADER!!

Come on!

Nova turns.

Then looks back—

The old man is gone.

Vanished.

Nova - …Where did he go?

Nebula - Leader, come on.

Nova - Hhh… yeah…

I'm coming.
