SHARD: The Prince Who Was Promised

Episode 6: Traitor II

Episode 6: Traitor II

The clown in front of me smiled and introduced himself as Colonel Bauer, I was like okay, no s**t, Deadonel Bauer, get this collar off me and I would think about sparing your life. He chuckled and told me he had no problems with doing that but he was also certain that if he did, the cuffs will go off and so will his head from his neck, well, that was not totally inaccurate, I planned to kill him the moment I saw a chance to be free and honestly, I still had this crazy headache.

Bauer then asked if I cared to eat anything, he told me a lot of s**t that made absolutely no sense, he said takos, armbugger, pasta and sodar, I wondered what in hell these were but I was not keen on finding out, so, I smartly told him none of that would be necessary. He then told me he had been watching me and that he knew I was not happy being a killer, he told me that he knew I was not okay with the war crimes my people were committing, how I was against the killing of innocent people.

I was about to think there was no traitor but this moron gave me just what I needed.

He told me he knew that the decision to join Meherres was not mine, my Emperor made it for me, that's how I was sure there was a traitor but I needed to know who, so, I was going to play along.

I burst into tears and told him to shut up, acting as though he had the upper hand and I was merely having a mental breakdown, that did the trick. He tapped me on the shoulder and told me it was alright, he then informed me of a way to end this war altogether since that was what I actually truly wanted. He told me that every Emperor had a group of people, special agents, they formed an organization called the sixth.

The sixth were very dangerous, excessively talented and beyond powerful. I wondered if this moron still had his brain cells, Melato Masters were already black ops already, he honestly expects me to believe that there was a group of people more vile than Melato Masters, if I was not pretending at the moment, I would simply burst into laughter but instead I only stared at him as if I was really shocked.

He foolishly took the bait and told me Khalil had been shortlisted to join the sixth Emperor's operatives, he would be amongst the sixth of the sixth Emperor and honestly, that brought me back, was that what he meant by he would soon be gone, this phenomenal douchebag was sounding dumb but his tale sounds quite possible at the moment, he wa.s about to drop a firecracker though, this moron told me to be prepared, I was going to be chosen next because the Emperors take those who have the potential to beat them and since a sixth can only be a sixth once a sixth, they get to be Emperor forever.

I had no idea what this moron wanted but at this moment, I internally swore to become an Emperor instead of a sixth, I was going to challenge the sixth Emperor, that way, Khalil would be under me and I would be able to protect him, also, if I became an Emperor, ending this was could actually be much easier to accomplish. I asked Bauer if it was Khalil who had been giving him information and he just laughed it off, saying that even if he had an informant, no one would ever find his informant out but I simply already knew who it was.

You see, a good spy is one who fits in easily and seamlessly, I was dealing with a spy who is not only a spy but one who is an excellent and trusted Melato Master and who else but Master Raydeane, I always found his very open hatred towards milkies weird, it was obvious that he was just trying too hard in making everyone believe he hated the milkies and was open to their extinction.

It just had to be him, also, I was in a ship, only Master Raydeane had no idea that one of my weapons connected my powers to water and the only reason why I had not used my water powers was simply because I was not around a lot of water, bringing me into a place with so much water made me feel power-drunk, I literally felt invisible at the moment, if I by any chance got into the water at some time, everyone around was beyond f****d.

I asked my very kind friend what he wanted from me and Mr Bauer gladly told me that he just wanted me to join the sixth and then supply him information in order to end this war as soon as possible. My answer to that was that I wanted to leave now, I then fought the pain and removed this power dampening collar while screaming from excruciating pain, the moment it got off, I instantly felt better, I got up and told him I would leave now whether he wanted to or not, he then told me to not even bother, the sun was not up and we were surrounded by a lot of water, my fire powers would not work.

I told him not to bother and added this to spite him, "you have a lot to learn comrade". I was planning on going into the water before but rather than do that, I had better things to do, I was going to bring the water to me instead, Bauer wondered why I was smirking but the moment we were swarmed with water, his look turns from confusion to horror as he realizes the great mistake he had just made the life ending mistake he and his doomed men had just made.

I felt beyond powerful now, my melato was charged up pretty well and the headache was now gone, good, I can now end the lives of this morons who somehow thought it was a good idea to kidnap me, they had requested my help and being the kind soul I was, I was going to do them the favor of painfully and slowly ending their utterly useless lives.

I had no idea what their first mistakes were but I was certainly going to make this their very last one. I wanted to kill Mr. Bauer first but I stopped myself, I would need to take him with me, we could get a lot of information from him.

I put him in a water prison and kept only his head afloat as the water seized and took control over his body, from the look of things, he was really not enjoying any of this and I was certainly going to make things worse for him and his crew of buffoons.

Oh and by the way, a water prison is a technique taught in Meherres in the case of us being water users, it makes a rectangular water body, then twists and turns whatever is inside of it, if whatever was in it tried to resist, it would only twist and turn faster, while Mr. Bauer was still dazed and confused, I went on to kill his friends and team mates.

I went outside and saw where I was, I was in a huge cruise ship, no wonder the water took so long to get to me, no matter, it was fine.

I was now surrounded by about fifteen different men, they asked me to not move and promised I would not come to harm if I stood still but I really was not going to let dead people tell me what to do. I gifted them water masks and watched the water on their head turn from blue to red.

A water mask is a technique we are taught in Meherres, it involves surrounding your opponent's head in a s**t ton of water then forcing the water into every hole in their head and then using it to attack and destroy their organs starting from the brain, a truly merciful death.

I watched them choke and struggle to breathe while they were helplessly trying to drag the mask away from their face and failing horrendously.

Once they had all dropped dead, I used the water prison to get Mr. Bauer in the ocean and then, I jumped straight into the ocean.

Once I was down, I got a clear view of the ship, but there were two others though, no matter, I was about to destroy the ships and kill everyone on board, I summoned all of my power and literally commanded the ocean and everything it contained to split and give leave an open space where the three ships were.

I then watched gleefully as the ships and every evil person they contained fell to their unfortunate or should I say fortunate deaths. That should surely send a message to the milky world, now they know not to f**k with a f*****g Melato Master.

Once I was done, I asked Mr. Bauer to choose between two options, either he told me the way back home and he lives or he chooses to die a very slow and painful death.

As expected, the moron chose to die instead, I had only broken a few bones when he screamed out in pain and begged me to stop before promising to tell me the way back, I obliged and followed his instruction until I saw a shore but oh f**k, this was not the way back, I was going to a milky country, I seriously just went mad with anger, I turned around and went a long way until I got to an island, I dragged him to shore and violently beat the living s**t out of him.

I stopped for a bit since I was now very hungry and thirsty, he then proceeded to have a moment, he told me I had made a grave mistake by doing this and that I had now doomed my people because I had just murdered presidents and his world would take revenge in the bloodiest and most horrific ways they could.

I wondered what he meant since his people were so easy to beat, I sincerely had no idea of what was going to happen next, I had no idea just how unfortunate the consequences my actions on this day were and just how unfortunate they would be for my people.

At the moment, I really did not give a s**t though, I simply just did the same thing I've done to every milky I have ever met, I killed Mr. Bauer by smashing his skull to bits and pieces.

I then used my water powers to raise myself up very high, high enough to see my continent and I went there straight, the next thing I did was head straight to HQ, time to give my report.

I told them everything that happened today and they thanked me for killing the Milkies I met, they then informed me that my divisions Emperor was going to give me two medals, one for bravery and one for honor, that made me smile but there was something I wanted much more than that, I had to repay a betrayal with a betrayal, it was time to bring Kashi to justice.

I told everyone in HQ that distinguished Master Kashi was a spy for the Milkies and he had been supplying them information from right under our noses.

I told them the only reason he acted like he was truly one of us and hated the Milkies was just so that he could pass off as truly one of us while he gives information to those his loyalty actually belongs to.

That did the trick, a warrant was issued for Master Kashi, he was now deemed a wanted criminal, one that is extremely dangerous, like a true TRAITOR..............................
