The Prophecy Of The Four Kings

A burning sensation etched it's way across his arms, moving them from covering his face, he looked down, drops of blood running from his arms, pooling onto the wet stoned street. His mind, however, was clear like a summer sky, a warmth hugged his body tightly, removing th cold of the rain that had fell. He looked on at his hands, he could see his divine energy manifesting itself around him, flowing around his body almost like a second skin.

 A smile cracked on his face, his laughter was joyous but sinister, like a child who had learnt how to deceive their parents, "Ahhh, thank you Amon, together you and yumi have made me push beyond what I thought was my limit", he said, slowly turning to face his brother.

With his back turned to his Aluric, he felt a raw chill run up his spine, his eyes filled with desperation, the hairs on his back stood up, the heaviness, the intensity of the pressure that weighed on Amon's shoulder's from the power that Aluric's divine energy exuded, made him want to drop to his knees and surrender. Finally amon turned around. A fierce golden aura hugged Alurics body, as if he were wearing armor, for the briefest of moments, Amon saw the childish innocent Aluric, only for his mind to quickly change it back to the corrupted visage of his brother that stood before him. He chuckled to himself, the grip on his sword loosening until it fell to the ground, the ringing sound of metal filled the air briefly mixing with the sound of the rain.

"what have you become ?", Amon said, his voice trembling on the edge of defeat. Even amongst the dark shadow that the storm clouds cast upon the kingdom's capital, even with the backdrop of loud explosions and defense towers falling to the ground, Aluric's divine energy radiated a golden glow, planting one word in Amon's mind, 'KING'.

"with your natural blessing I'm surprised you lasted this long, it was never suited to combat, you always meant more as support", Aluric said, Amon had been looking him directly in his eyes, but it felt as though Aluric had been looking down on him.

"well our natural blessings are literal opposites, I give, while you take. I support while you fight. You siphon while I replenish, it was part of what made us so formidable when we worked together", Amon said,

"while that was the case, unlike you who accepted things for what they were and stagnated, I made my natural blessing into the force of nature, of my nature, that it is today, I forged on ahead, while you stood idly by content with what you had, just like our old man, just like our". Aluric rebutted.

"mother", Amon finished his brother's sentence, he held his head down his bod shaking with laughter, "is that what you think", Amon reared his head up to the sky, slowly looking back down at his brother, "Aluric, there is no doubt about your talent, it has made you a monster amongst ordinary men, so while your growth made leaps and bounds, it made the rest of us looked like we were doing nothing at all. And your vanity tricked you into believing that we ordinary men were content with that, but oh, do I have a surprise for you", Amon finished.

Dropping onto one knee, Amon raised his fist. Slamming it into the ground, he placed his other hand over his heart, his pupils changed from green to a bright blue, glowing blue writing appeared over his skin, moving and dancing in random but seemingly intricate ways, " I invoke the name of the ancient one, Lara'zor Azazel, carry forth my gift onto my comrades in arms, may they be blessed with vitality, strength and longevity on until this day ends, GIFT OF RENEWMENT", Amon said, the words dancing on his skin rushed down his arm onto the ground as a pulse of blue light traveled outwardly.

Aluric's face changed from a slight grin to a pissed expression, marching over to his brother, and grabbing him by his tattered shirt collar,

"WHAT DID YOU DO ?", he shouted at the top of his lungs,

"I supported my people", Amon said with a grin on his face, The gray skies lit up blue over the battlefield, as a blue beam of light shot up into the sky, soon after blue balls of light small enough to look like glowing snowflakes fell to the ground,

On The Battle Field

As Bard was slicing through the Dracht military's soldiers, he came across a rebel soldier laying on his back with a sword through his chest, taking his last few dying breaths, when suddenly he saw the blue light emitting from the mountains, he let out a small chuckle,

As another dracian soldier fell from Bard's swords, he stopped coming across a rebel soldier, a young man, he couldn't be any older than nineteen, with a sword embedded in his chest, Bard knelt beside him, holding onto his hand,

"I've got you soldier, you won't be alone", Bard said,

"thank you commander bard", the young man said, his breathing growing weaker,

"which kingdom are you from", bard asked,

"I'm", he paused couging up some blood, "I'm from Argon sir, I followed prince zackariah here in order to defend my home", he said,

"then I'll be sure to tell zack that you fought bravely", Bard said, his eyes being distracted by the small glowing flakes of light falling from the sky, The young soldier squeezed Bard's hand with invigoration, he sat up like a man possessed, pulling the sword from his chest, the wound healed instantly, A smile ran across Bard's face,

"well I'll be damned, it worked, it really worked", Bard said, rising to his feet and helping the young man to his.

"it isn't your time yet brother", Bard said, handing him the sword he took from his chest,

"let's pay these bastards back tenfold", bard said,

"MEN !!!!, THE GODS HAVE SHINED THEIR LIGHT UPON US THIS DAY, NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO RUN,NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO DIE,RISE UP, AND GIVE THEM HELLL!!!!", Bard shouted to the tops of his lungs, his loud gruff booming voice drowning out the sounds of battle and the sound of the rain,

As many severely wounded rebel soldiers began to get up from their timely demise, taking up their weapons once more, and even the still fighting rebel soldiers, began to fight with a new vigor as their wounds closed at a miraculous pace

Back with Aluric and Amon

The look on Aluric's face worsened as he could here newly reinvigorated shouts from soldiers beyond the city walls, he refocused his attention to his brother, who still had a wide grin running across his face,

" I take it you gave your men some kind of boost or Buff of somekind ?", Aluric questioned to his brother,

" no matter once I take of you it will disappear and everything will be as it should be", Aluric finished stating, Aluric pulled back hist fist into the air aiming right for Amon's face,

Amon looked on at his brother his wide grin turning to a solemn look upon his face,

"it doesn't matter if you knock me out, fuck, it doesn't even matter if you kill me, the effect of the ability I used just now is a permanent one, I just sacrificed a life to ensure that my men had a chance of victory", Amon explained,

"I first found out about this ability on accident after using at one of the first few skirmishes we had with you guys, and since then I refined it, made it more powerful, at the cost of one of my soldiers who was at near perfect health, I gave the condition of his health to all my men, it cant bring back the dead, but anyone who still had a heartbeat on that battlefield just got all their wounds healed and have been revitalized like if they had now started fighting", Amon explained,

" so do your worst brother, but I can at least die knowing I gave it my all", Amon stated,

"well brother, if it is as you say, there is no point in sparing you, because if I can cut off the head of this snake known as the rebel army, they will all lose hope, I will miss you dearly", Aluric stated as his fist sped towards amon's throat,

The roar of thunder rang through the air, as a bolt of lightning raced it way towards Aluric, he raised his arms to block the incoming attack, as the bolt connected pushing him off of Amon, and back several feet, it left a stream of steam rising from where the lighting bolt connected,

" Mind if we Tag in", A loud familiar voice shot through the air, As Barak, Aster, Levant and Polaris jump off of a building in front of Aluric
