HOW I BECAME A GOD

child of destiny- p2 (The ninth gate)

Four years passed after the incident, and Bruce( now known as Max) started to take care of the boy, and somewhere along the line Jack started copying him during training sessions almost perfectly, Max then took it upon himself to train the boy both physically and mentally as he started homeschooling the boy. Time passed on like this until that fateful day, that the nine pillars showed up. At this time Jack was already 10 years of age and was more powerful and intelligent than most grown men.

Jack leaped the mountain the house was on, to check whether he could see the sun like his grandfather had shown him a long time ago. Usually, he wouldn't come close, but now it was different, he managed to get a glimpse of the beauty, in satisfaction he let himself fall. He landed in an open space that he was not familiar with, it was on the verge of ruin, as he was about to walk onto the fragile ice, a voice called out to him " What are you doing here kid?" it was a female voice, it was the voice of a younger Stacy. Jack took a step back " who are you??.... show yourself!!" he shouted. Then a blonde lady of about 5 feet in height, wearing a winter jumpsuit walked up to him " Hey kid... you lost or something?" she asked with a tone of disgust, " No I'm not" he replied, she then smirked " jackpot" she thought to herself", " Then show me to the man named Bruce Morrison", " I'm sorry.... but nobody of that name lives here" he responds becoming wary of this stranger who knew of his grandpa. "don't worry you can trust me, I'm here to talk to him... I'm an old friend", Jack now evidently annoyed by this comment barks back " I said nobody like that lives here... can you please leave now ?!".

Stacy was disgusted by his tone and replied "do you have any idea who I am", Jack foud a bit off leisure in her annoyance and said, " Yes... you're just a random person walking in on my homeland and demanding to see someone who doesn't exist". Stacy puts her hand out and a katana manufactures in a white light " you have sharp tongue kid, how about I silence you permanently", Jack snickers at the thought of fighting " Alright lady, I honestly don't care who you are, you can't just show up and threaten people you know".  Stacy runs out of patience and rushes in to cut Jacks head off, but Jack ducks and trips her. "here's the thing, I've been against hitting girls for a long time.... but I'll make an exception in your case" Jack says with an emotionless look in his eye.

Two other men show up and help Stacy up, " You let a kid beat you?" one of them said with a laugh", " he didn't beat me !!" she said blushing with embarrassment. "whatever you say" teased the other one " Hey kid ... where is Maximilian". "Oh... follow me then" he responded with an innocent smile " I wonder what they want with Gramps," he thought to himself as he leads the way to the mansion. Stacy was the first to rush into the mansion when they got inside, but Max came out himself to meet his Not so unexpected guests.

"Jack... go inside for now alright," He said stretching out. Jack obediently ran inside the house. "what do you people want?" He demanded, the first man responded " Desmond is after the boy, and we want to protect him", " you already know how I do my business" said Max with a cold stare. " Stace go get the boy... the others are coming so I'll leave him in your hands for now" ordered the man, " sure thing boss... just don't die here," she said as she disappears. " shall we begin Diablo?" asked Max with an ever so slight grin. Diablo removed his cloak and mask to fight more freely, then he turned to the other man and said " if things become bad run... that's an order so it's not up for debate", " got it " responded the other man. Diablo raises his hand to reveal his divine gift, The reaper of Death's armor and spawns a scythe. " Now Maximilian, let us dance with the gods," he says rushing at Max.
