Chapter 1 (Part 1 of 3)
The beginning
Somewhere in the West of Mesopotamia, King Abbott is sitting on the throne watching his people have a heated discourse about authority. It was a little debate of who would take care of the new creation that Abbot himself have made.
A bigger group of Malak, people of Viranna, is standing to their belief that King Abbott should take the full authority of this new creation.
A handful of them is saying, “Let them live on their own as they are created in resemblance of the King. They also know authority. Let them be on their own.”
Then, there are few of them, that chooses no side and just be happy that the new creation has form successfully.
Despite of conflicting ideology, the whole Kingdom rejoice as the new creation rises. The King hastily ignore the little debate that he heard earlier and turn his head at his new creation.
“You are the most amazing creation that I did. Even my first children are curious about you.” He said.
“Father, they are beautiful.”
“Yes, they are. They are wonderful. Your mission is now complete.”
“Can I now go back to my previous duties?”
“Yes. Yes, you can. I appreciate your help. Carry on to your duties from now on, Miguel.”
“Glory to you, King Abbott.”

Chapter 1
Year 2050
Philippines.
Patient's Name : Unknown
"Kamusta na ang pasyente ?"
"Two weeks na po syang comatose."
"Did you check his oxygen level?"
"Yes, Doc. Result is normal."
"Any relatives that came here since then?" The Doctor asked as she check the patient's vitals. She already have a record on her chart but she wants to be sure. Vitals are normal.
"Negative Doc."
"Really? Still no relatives?"
"No relatives, Doc."
"Oh, okay. Hmm.. I see no visible fracture and no internal complication. Oxygen level is normal. Vitals are normal. Everything is normal except that he is sleeping for a long time now." The Doctor said, probably thinking out loud because of a sudden uncertainty that she is facing.
"Is that possible?" The Nurse asked, also in doubt.
"Apparently, yes." She said looking at the young man in the hospital bed while the Doctor recollects the memories she had from two weeks ago.
In the middle of the night, a young man appeared in the door step of the Hospital. He is soaking with blood and was screaming "Help!" in different dialects. He used at least 8 dialects of the Philippines that almost everyone understood. He was screaming "Tabang. Bulig..Sopan yu ku. Tulong!" In an angry but weak tone.
The scene causes panic to the patient as he started murmuring some unknown language in between of the word "help" as if he was really in pain. Then,moments later, he passed out making the scene even more chaotic.
Hospital personnel rush him to the Emergency Room for medical assistance but they later found out that he don't need any medical help at all. He was soaking with blood but it is not a human blood. It is from an animal that can't barely survive in the country – the St.Croix Sheep.
He don't have any injury or wound to worry about. There's a notable scar from his back. But those scars are from a healed wound. Not really a medical concern for now.
He is in perfect health according to the test results.
"Doc, our next patient is Mr. San Diego. His kidney is failing bad and he is not responding well with the treatment." Nurse Amie said making her come back to reality.
"Alright. Do you have his record?"
"Yes, Doc."
"Okay let me see." She said still distracted to her current patient.
Hnmm..Who are you, strange young man? Well, whoever you are, wake up! You are perfectly healthy to be in bed for this long. You should go home now and be with your family. Do you have a family, dear? Oh! This world is too cruel. I hope you have one.

Meanwhile, in Kingom of Premadel..
"Theus!!" The former Tressi screamed as she run towards the man in lavish attire. Anyone can see that she is furious as her dress is burning and her eyes are darted to her brother.
"You betrayed me, Theus! Where is Miguel?"
"Oh, Hi Lucy. You are here. How are you?" Theus responded as if it was nothing. He is even dancing like crazy.
"Theus! Where is Miguel?" Lucy exclaimed as he throw a fireball to Theus' face. His left face was burn. "Stop playing!"
"Ouch. That hurts a lot my little sister. But you know that its useless." He cupped his face using his own right hand and just like that, he healed himself. He reformed his face just like it never happened.
"Can we be more civilized here?" He said trying to calm his sister.
"Civilized? Huh? Says the man who burn the Kingdom."
"Well it was fun." He giggled.
"I know you always want to have fun, Theus. But this ain't funny at all. Where is Miguel?"
"I don't know."
"Seriously?"
"I really don't know. Maybe he misses being a laborer of THE KING." He said sarcastically emphasazing the word "King".
Lucy heave a sigh.
"I will surrender to the King if you won't tell me where Miguel is."
"Huh? My favorite sister. You can't do that to me."
"Yes, I could. I still have the pendant."
"I told you to throw it away!" His aura suddenly change. His face is mirroring fear.
"I keep my pendant just in case. So tell me, where is Miguel?"
"I can tell you where he is but I swear that it is not my doing."
"So, where he is?"
"An Island called Philippines."
"Noooo.. You are not serious."
"We can play a game to know the truth. Hmm.. Lucy. You can guess if I'm serious or not. Look in to my eyes and tell me." He said playfully as ever.
Lucy look in to her brother's eyes then she slap his face hard and screamed again.
"Damn! You are not kidding."
"I'm dead serious, my sister."
"You will be dead if something bad happened to Miguel." She said running to her room to gear up. She hurriedly packed her things.
"You know you can't kill me because if you will----" Theus said in a distance.
"Shut up!"
"Ow. Okay." He said smiling like a fool.
"I will be back, Theus. Don't do something stupid when I'm away."
"I won't."
"I will be back just in time of the second encounter. We need Miguel to win this war, Theus."
"Whatever you say, my little Lucy. I just have one request to you. Please bring Reli and Aeud with you. They are the ones I trusted the most."
"Okay."
"And promise me you will be back to me. We are one family Lucy. We are family."
"I will be back to you, General Theus. I promise."
