In a fighting arena faraway in deep space, a fight broke out during the legendary Tournament of Divinity that would change this universe, and this timeline forever. A fight between two entities that would shatter a timeline into pieces that would give way to the strongest being in the Universe.The Omni King vs. The Fallen Hero, both tattered and beaten beyond repair. The Omni King's Long black hair and beard bilows in the wind showing off the scars from his many battles. His "brother" The Fallen Hero (TF1) is barely able to stand, the damage he has sustained is immense. They lock eyes in a legendary standoff not knowing that when this battle is over, history would be changed forever.
Omni King: It's time to finish this brother.
TF1: *In between exasperated breaths* Shut up and accept your death like a man.
They rush towards each other, malice in their eyes, in the middle of a messed up, destroyed, and depleted battle field. Shards of war everywhere, as they both rear back to throw their final punches everything begins to slow down. Their fists connect with each other, time stops, the very fabric of time rips in half and both warriors are sent back in time a year. In the rift they created, the spirit of the marked fighter was born. It spread throughout reality, finally settling within chosen beings. A crop of new warriors capable of shifting the chain of command in an instant. A new warrior however, has the potential to do something more. He has the potential to achieve things that no one thought possible. He will be the strongest, by any means possible, and no one will stand in his way. He will go by many names in his journey to power, his limitless potential make it so. His power level will soon rival the Omni King, and even stronger beings. He will unlock transformations, that no one would believe until they saw it. He was one of a chosen thousand, but yet, he is even more different than all of them. Everyone, but him is aware of his power and his potential, for now... His name you ask? Why of course, his name is,
2 Long years ago...
Mom: Erik! Erik: Yes mom? Mom: Come on breakfast is ready, don't want your food to get cold! Erik: Coming mom!
The Young warrior "Erik' gets out of bed when everything just stops. The world glows an interesting hue. Suddenly he feels a sharp pain in his chest a menacing aura emanates from his body, every orifice of his body glows a bright white light. And in that moment, he doesn't realize, but he has become the slated chosen one. After a few seconds almost everything goes back to normal, but Erik still feels a very overwhelming presence. A weird tingly feeling in his chest and mind. His raw power is exuding out of his body, invisible to the naked eye, for now. He feels as though something is different, he doesn't know what, but something is extremely wrong in his world. Through increasingly deeper breaths, he regains his composure. Suddenly, his whole body freezes and tenses up. He feels another overwhelming presence, but this time it's different, it's growing, and fast. Suddenly a bright light begins to come out from the floor, lightning strikes crack and boom outside of his window. The world shakes violently around him as the lightning strikes sound as if they are coming even closer. They become louder every second until a person jumps out from the light. Erik is startled and rears back into a defensive stance. The light fades and a tall, muscular, long haired man is in front of him. He pulls the hair from his face a large scar lays across his right cheek, but one thing is painfully clear to Erik in this moment.
Erik: Is. is. that me?
Future Erik: Yes, Yes it is. We have some things to discuss.
Erik:Oo-k
Future Erik: I'm you from 2 years into the future. A LOT has happened obviously, but to make a long story short, Your girlfriend, she leaves you a few months from now, the girl after leaves you after awhile, another one dies, and a lot more heartbreak follows kiddo.
Erik:That's, That's a lot to take in at once.
Future Erik: I know, but it's worth it, plus there's even more. That little tingly feeling your're feeling right now, that's the raw, dormant power that lays within you. You're going to have to use that to keep everyone safe. I can't tell you everything now, but I promise you that everything'll work out eventually.
Erik: Power? Like a super hero?
F.E: Something like that yeah, but it's a path you must take to unlock, and progress it. You are going to be stronger than you could ever imagine. Things will go wrong, life will happen kid, but everyone has a light, a core they draw their power from. If anyone, and I mean anyone tries to dim your light, you set them on fire. I must leave now, but I promise everything will work out, just never give up.
Erik: I Understand, but can I ask you one question, before you go?
F.E: Shoot.
Erik: Why me?
F.E: *Short Chuckle* Why not you? But to truthfully answer your question, your the chosen one, and eventually your going to do something that no one ever thought possible. And when you do, remember this conversation. The friends you have now, and the ones you will meet along the way, will push you farther than you've ever thought you could, keep them around, and keep them alive, it's your duty to them. Good Bye Kid, for now.
Erik: *Through tears and a hoarse voice* Goodbye.
In an instant a blinding flash of light, Future Erik is gone, and the world goes back to normal. Erik heads to the bathroom, and looks into the mirror, really looks at himself. He stares directly into his chestnut-colored eyes, and suddenly his pupils dilate, and his previously light-brown eyes, briefly shifts to a brownish-blood red. He smirks, and his eyes returned to normal, echoing his future self's words in his mind.
At the same time deep into space, on a premiere planet, the Omni King has his sights set on the young warrior.
Omni King: This is the fabled chosen one? He is merely a child, what's so special about him?
Random servant: Sir, I believe the Book of Knowledge states that he has unlimited potential, and the mark of the Onyx being. He just doesn't know the extent of his power yet.
Omni King: Intriguing, This will be fun *Laughs maniacally*
Also at the same time, in a cave deep into the same planet, The Fallen Warrior also has his sights set on Erik.
TF1: This young warrior doesn't even know the power he has, the potential he holds. I must do something, before my "brother" gets his hands on him. He will be useful, maybe he can do something I've failed to do, dethrone the King.
What plans does the OMni king have for Erik? Will Erik understand the scope of his power? Find out next time on... The Phantom
