“Well no time to talk now, I will be more than happy to answer when we are in a safer place will you come with me?” Asked Martin
Even thought we did not know him and even though we did not trust him we got in a group huddle and we discussed the pros and cons with going with him. We decided to go with him as we were going to help the people of this planet and because he seemed to know about us.
He escorted the five of us to a hi tech looking house where he took us and invited us to sit while he went into the kitchen and prepared some snacks and some drinks for us. We sat in awe of the house this little boy had brought us to it looked exactly like the house back on earth but a lot more hi tech and clean and a lot more robots. Several minutes later the boy joined us and we began to ask questions. Sasha (My sister) asked the first question:
“Where are we exactly and what is going on?”
To which Martin replied:
“Well” he began “You are now in a parallel Earth to the earth you came from but the only difference is this parallel earth is 1000 years a head of your universe which means that all of the things here are more advanced and better then the things in your planet. And all of the people in this parallel universe are a lot smarter than the people in your time. And that is the whole reason to why you are here and why the Sun on this Earth has disappeared.”
Just as Martin was explaining Alex cut in and asked:
“We were brought all the way from our planet to here because the people of this planet are smarter than us. Is the Sun disappearing really the reason we were bought here or were we just brought here to rub our face in the fact that the people of your time are better and smarter than the people of our time?”
“No not at all Alex!”
“How did you know my name?” Alex inquired
“I know everything about you five and about your future and your past.”
“WHAT!!!!” we all exclaimed
“As the guardian of the five it is my sole duty to keep you safe and to make sure you fulfil your destiny.”
“Guardian of the five? What destiny?” Ella asked.
“You five are the special five who were destined to come and save us from the great evil which is coming upon us and it is my job as the guardian of the five to make sure you succeed and to make sure I do everything in my power to help you to achieve you goal.”
“Ok fine. Even if we are the five people who are destined to come here to save you what is o special about us? And what is going on in this world that is so bad that it needs saving?” I asked
“Well look I’ve got to keep this brief as the more time we spend talking the less time we have to save this world. There is an evil overlord who has been lying dormant for the last 50000 million years and was imprisoned by the previous five who are your ancestors and has kept everyone safe but now he has found a way to escape and is going to escape at midnight tonight and if he does get out then he will destroy not only this world but every other planet in this universe and it is up to you the new five to stop him from escaping and to trap him again to make sure he does not escape again.”
“So let me get this right our ancestors the old five imprisoned this evil overload somewhere he could not escape and now he has found a way to get out and now we have got to stop him from getting out otherwise he will destroy the whole of this universe?”
“Well you got everything right apart from the bit where you send he was trapped somewhere he is actually trapped in the void which is a pocket in time where nothing exists and is there is no time or space in time but otherwise you have got the jest of it. ”
“Well are we just going to sit here talking or are we going to go and save this universe?” I asked heroically.
“Let’s go save the world then!!” replied Martin enthusiastically.
With that we left the house and Martin guided us to an empty warehouse, and it was pitch black when we enter and then the lights came on one by one illuminating 5 people in white robes standing on high platforms and as soon as all of the members were illuminated someone spoke in a voice so loud so commanding all of us jumped a step back. . It was the eldest looking person who spoke he said
“Welcome guardians to the headquarters of the elders. This is where we have been stationed for the thousand years lying in wait for you to arrive and finally you have come among us. We are most honoured and I am sure you know what to do to save our world before it dies. ”
“I am so sorry to you and all your people but we are only teenagers what can we do to save this world or indeed any world I am so sorry but we can do absolutely nothing to help sorry.” I replied in a really apologetic way as the elders were so hoping in us for us to help.
“Oh you do not understand you are the chosen ones and you are the only ones who can stop the evil overload and save not only this planet but every planet in this whole universe.” Replied another one of the elders.
“How are we supposed to stop this grand over lord?” Asked Sasha
“With your mystical powers given to you by the heavens each of you possessed with the power of the elements fire earth wind water and also one of has the power to wield all of those powers and much more. And that is how oh doubtful one.” Replied the chief elder.
“Oh ok if we were to go along with this story how comes we have never been able to use these so called powers before and how can we awaken these mystic powers you say we possess?” Asked Holly
“Now the answer to this question in my eyes is quite simple if I say so myself. The reason to why you have never seen these powers is because you have never had the real need for these powers and you by the looks of things never knew about these powers so you never called upon them and they have never come out to help you.” Replied Martin who had remained quiet until this point.
“Precisely!” The elders confirmed.
“Ok fine say we believe we have these special powers how exactly do we awaken them and how do we use them?” Asked Ella.
“Well Joseph you know the chain you have around your neck since birth and you have never taken it off and every time you try to something comes up so you don’t well that is the key to your power.” Said the chief
When he said those words I thought back and everything he said was true and I started to think to myself could all of this be true, could we really posses the power to save this world and did we really have all of these powers he said we had?
He continued “Well when you hold that necklace in your hands and utter the word power of the five the powers are released into your bodies and you will be able to use them to their full capabilities.”
I thought we had to give it a try just to see if he was right so I picked up the pendant with my hand and whispered the words power of the five and for a couple of moments nothing happened as such but then each of the five of us was surrounded by a bright ball of light for many moments and then we were spat out of the ball of light and we had transformed from what we had been wearing into a whole new costume and one each of our clothes we had a picture of our elements for example Alex was probably the guardian of fire as he had a picture of a flame on his new t shirt.
We were all astounded by this and we all began to think that everything that these people had told us was true and that we were the chosen ones and that we were really born to save not only this world but all worlds we can possibly get to. And as the time got nearer and nearer to midnight we knew in our hearts our time to save this world was coming and we had to be prepared. By knowing about us being guardians and why we had been born had helped not only me but everyone else in the group as well.
After we had got over the fact of us being true guardians we powered down not to arouse suspicions walking around in the funny costumes. Then we set of to the place in which the dark overlord will be trying to escape from. This took us a not long to get there as we took the hover cars which are like normal cars but they fly and the great thing about this world there was not any traffic as all journeys were made double quick by a time jump which meant you could jump from one place and land in another place through a time vortex like the one we had fallen through without anytime passing what so ever so everyone was one time for everything nothing was ever late this future was a very bright future indeed, but probably this would not happen on regular earth for many millennia to come.
By the time we had reached the place we needed to be we realised it was 2 minutes before midnight so we had to get powered up and get ready to fight this overlord and stop him from ever coming back into this world and get him to return the sun. As midnight struck a time hole began to form in the middle of the field where we were standing and a dark and quite vast creature began crawling out of it, we decided to wait for him to get completely out before we started to attack. We thought he would be a very easy enemy to defeat but how wrong was I he was to be one of the toughest challenges we would ever face. As he fully emerged from the time hole and he stood up in his entirety he was up to the sky he was unbelievably tall and we were stunned and did not known how the five of us were going to over power him and trap him back in his time prison.
And so it had begun our first fight as the guardians. He was the first to make a move he threw a fiery punch toward our direction we barely dodged that and then we tried to fight back Ella and Sasha attacked with a gust and a water cannon attack combination and then it was followed by fire bombs and a rock smash by Alex and Holly. But none of the attacks we imposed upon him worked. There were repeated attacks by the overlord which was swiftly followed by a counter attack by us. The battle was reaching no visible end we were getting tiered and he seemed not to be tiring at all and we were sure that we were going to lose, but when hope seemed all but gone Martin shouted down from below:
“When the guardian’s powers are combined there is nothing in this universe which can stop it.”
So with that advice we all came together and focused all our energies and I harnessed it all the guardians powers and gave all the energy which I had to give as the leader of the guardians and fire out a tremendous blast which knocked the overlord off his feet and made him unconscious. And in that time I held up my pedant to an empty part of the field and a time hole opened and it sucked the war lord slowly but surely back into the void were he will be imprisoned for another 50000 years. And the moment the time hole closed again the sun came back brightening up the field and bringing smile and joy to all whom set their eyes upon it.
We decided to stay for a couple of days before departing but when we did eventually leave we all swore whatever happened we would protect earth and all other planet which need the help of the guardians we would be there to assist and to protect. And with that we left knowing in our heart we had accepted a very big responsibility and we had to stick by it and stick by it together. As long as we were together we would be fine.
