It was dark... But there was a light above me, I was ascending. As I floated to the light a tear came to my eye, I died, I'll never see Sally again but... On the other hand... I am going to meet Odin. I saw the Golden Gates of Asgard, as I approached it I saw then one eyed deity. I stopped ascending as I was but a few feet from Odin and the gates.
"Hello my son." Odin greeted, his voice was rough, like a true Viking and Warrior he is. I wiped the tears that were forming in my crimson eyes, I looked to him with a smile.
"Hello Odin," I responded, he smiled and floated over to me.
"You have done a great amount of deeds, saving your friends, fighting armies for your beliefs, you are worthy of being in Asgard." Odin held his arms out for a hug, I gladly accepted the hung and embraced him. "Welcome home, my son." Tears start to form in my eyes.
"Thank you." I squeaked out, "I guess I chose the right religion huh?" Odin let out a chuckle.
"Indeed you did, however, it is not your time." Odin let go of me and I did the same.
"W-what?" I said looking at him, rubbing my eyes.
"You have friends you need to protect, and a certain woman you need to marry, until you marry her you can not come to Asgard. Do not be discouraged young Zachary, I believe in you, I forged a weapon just for you. It is called, Hell Bringer, it is a scythe that has the power of the fire demon Aura himself locked inside of it. When you need it, call my name, farewell Zachary. I hope to see you soon..." Odin pushed me and I fell into the dark abyss, I threw my hand to him.
"ODIIIINNN!!!!!!!!!!"
I woke up just as water was splashed in my face, I got to my feet and looked at my surroundings before falling on my back.
"Don't think I should've woken him up with water?" I hear a male voice say, I then heard a slap.
"Of course you idiot!" A female voice snapped at the male, footsteps approached me and a hand was held out for me. I gladly took it, I was pulled up, I then stumbled forward. I look at the being who aided me, it was a female with a rose straw-hat that had a feather into it. She wore armor that was red like my eyes, I winced and looked at my damaged body.
"I need to take a seat..." I croaked as I stumbled forward to the bed that I was laying on, being careful to avoid the wet area. I took a look around, we were in a basement from what I could see, but it looked like a bedroom, posters and drawer everywhere. There was a Dragon with female features, another female with an orange hat and some orange armor, then a male with a black and blue helmet as well as black and blue armor, kinda looked like Tron to me, minus the medieval style armor. I looked to my saviors and rubbed my head. "What happened?"
"Well," The Tron guy leaned on a wall, "We found you at the bottom of the ocean and had to restart your heart and get all of that water out of your body. You were unconscious for a two or less days, you are a Displaced right?" Tron guy turns to me. I just nod having nothing much to say.
"Well, we need to tell you something..." Tron guy walked up to me and put a hand on my blocky shoulder, "All of your friends are going to die and you are the only one who can stop that." My eyes went wide and the drake hit the Tron guy in the abdomen. "What?"
"You don't think that you could have sugarcoated it a little? Look at him, he's obviously distraught!" The orange girl points at me, looking at the Tron guy, she turns to me. "I apologize for his... Bluntness but what he's saying is true, all of your friends are in danger, you thought Kaido was dangerous? Well you should look at Ryker."
Straw hat girl sits next to me, "You see, when Thanos signed that paper there was a hidden note on it, it reads none Displaced can exit this whole universe until you defeat Ryker, which the odds of you guys doing that is one out of a million. Ryker does this with every Displaced he summons here, he does an event and at the end of it... He kills them, but he does let one leave, the winner. However I don't think he'll take the chance this time, last time he did this well... Let's just say Buggy had some fun with Ryker. In any case you are the only chance they have, we need you to get the Dragon Balls and wish Ryker into a Blackhole so that he can be defeated and so that I can get my crown back. Ryker is not the actual ruler... It's me, Princess Elia of the Eliatropes." Elia introduced, the Tron guy grinned.
"My name is Blake, Ex-Captain of the Royal Guard, I was replaced by Arkham Knight because well... I couldn't beat him." Blake shook his head in disappointment, I look at him with sympany. The Eliatrope and the Dragon took a step forward, they both held a hand to their hearts.
"We are the Elia-Twins," They introduced themselves, "I am Ryola and this is Jasmyn." The drake pointed to her Eliatrope.
"And together we are the Freedom Fighters!" Elia said pumping her fist up, I looked among them and there was a silence in the air for a very awkward five seconds. Elia cleared her throat, "I know it's very... small."
"That's what she said." I grinned, Blake held a hand to his mouth as he took a step back and leaned on something. He tried to hold his laughter inside but it slipped out some. Elia deadpanned at us and I couldn't help but laugh.
"As I was saying I know it's very small-" Blake let out a cackle and he fell to his knees and pounded on the ground, "Blake I will shoot you in between your eyes!" Blake got out and dusted himself off.
"I am sorry Princess, just had to get my daily amount of joy out of my system." Blake responded with a grin, Elia groaned and pinched the bridge of her nose.
"I know we're very short on members but we had to keep it quiet, Ryker would notice and would kill us all should we recruit more. We're under a ramen shop run by my brother, Jack, but we're all one of the most powerfullest warriors here... That aren't Displaced. Hell, even I can't win against Arkham Knight without bleeding. However, now we have you on our side, meaning we have chance to break the cycle and save Eliatopia." Elia said grinning, I nod and went to my feet.
"Alright, I'm in, what do I have to do?" I clasp my blocky hands together and everyone stands to their feet.
"You have to find the Dragon Balls." Elia said and I nodded.
"Alright, get Dragon Balls, got it." I replied turning around before pausing, I then turn back to Elia, "Where exactly are the Dragon Balls?"
"Well... We don't exactly know but we do know someone who does know, Douglass Bullet, he often goes to a bar right next to the ramen shop we have as our head quarters." Elia told me, I nodded, "Remember be very slick about it, also wear this robe so that people won't notice you." Elia throws me an Akatsuki Robe with a hood, I take it and I wear it.
"Alright, I'll leave now, Mission Ball Dragging is a go." I take a step before waving them goodbye, Blake is full on laughing at the name I chose, I climb up the ladder that was on the far left of the room and I was right in the cooking area of the ramen shop. I saw a black scaled dragon with orange hair.
"Hey, you, you're finally awake," The black scaled dragon said, getting a bowl of ramen. "You must be hungry, eat up." I gladly took it.
"Thank you, Jack I assume?" He hands me chopsticks and I dig into my meal, gaining some of my hearts back.
"Yup, Arthur's the name and making ramen is my game. Good luck on whatever you're doing." Arthur grinned as I handed him my now empty bowl, I was hungry so I ate that shit quick.
"Thank you for the meal, farewell." I turn around and exit the ramen shop, he waved me goodbye and I returned the gesture. I looked beside me and there was a bar that read, "Crunky's Bar." I put the hood over my head and I swung open the doors to the bar.
All eyes turned to me, they then went back to tend to their drinks. I walked for the counter of the bar, I sat right next to a large Minotaur built man. The man just looked down to me.
"Oi, you new around here?" The man looked down at me, "The name's Bullet, Douglass Bullet." He stuck his hand out, I gazed at him.
"Yes, I'm new around here, the name is... Zachary, I come searching for the Dragon Balls." I told the man, Bullet looks down at me.
"Eh? Why're you lookin' for the Dragon Balls?" Bullet asked me, I look at him.
"I come to save this country from a King." Those are the only words I could manage out before Bullet grabbed my head and slammed me down on the counter. I then jumped back and summoned my scythe, I flicked my hood up and my eyes met his.
"You think you can beat Ryker huh? I'll show you how much you're wrong! Kahahaha!" Bullet jumps at me and fist and blade clashed.
...I think you guys know the rest...
