Finally, it's done.
It took a while, but at least I complete it. Sometimes gettng writers block isn't fun and games, even if school gets in your way a lot. But I did my best on this part. not much else to say on this, so feel free to comment if you like on how well I did so far. Enjoy.


"What do you mean; he went through all the interrogation treatments!" Zora roared, hearing word from the cat soldiers. It has been since yesterday after discovering a powerful human SOS signal near the Frigeta waters, the group known as the ECS organization was ordered to search and retrieve the signal only to find it as an odd impossible-to-open support capsule. The marital to make the pod didn't seem like it was made like the rest of the pods and more like it was made by another as it contained a strong-like metal that can withstand anything. Even using the strongest of hybrids none of their attacks didn't leave a mark at all, including using the tech they didn't do a thing as well. Until the lioness, Zora De Facto somehow manages to open it herself and on doing so came an emerald eyes black male lion. He appeared to be extremely skilled and strong at that as he manage to kicked the ECS commander Pandora Panovich with such strength to cause her flying towards a metal wall leaving a dent as she fell. He didn't seem to want to fight at first as he faint upon Zora after saying, "ma' lady." Course, that didn't go through with the Queen of Beasts, but something felt off about the lion, which was why she put him into interrogation to see if he knew anything important. Unfortunately, not a word from him yet, and normally hers and Pandora’s interrogations would last for a few hours, but for him; sixteen hours. Now Zora has been given report from her soldiers saying the black lion survived everyone of interrogations and was still living, quite shocking because no one has ever survived that long without fainting. She was given orders to find out about the lion by her mother, Dr. Van Burden, or else things won't go well for her or her sisters. She ordered the soldier to redo the interrogation on him and signed off from the screen. "Wow, I must say this male is even more persistence than I thought," said Tonya. "Not only had he survived your torment, but Pandora's as well. Guess experimenting on him will have to wait." The enraged panther, being treated for her wounds after getting a kick to the face by the lion, snarled loudly trying her best to not strain herself, unlike Zora, who is basically boiling with rage leaving claws marks on the computer afrer clawing it so much. But unfortunately some of that rage was taken out as the lioness punched through the computer screen. "How!?" She roared, balling up her right paw. "There's no way he could have survived; some of those interrogations should have killed him by now. Even if he is a Hybrid, he should have been dead!" This became very frustrating for the lioness for which she wasn't about to be made a monkey of out no male, especially another lion. "At least you weren't sent flying like a rag doll." Pandora said still slightly feeling wounded. "Taken out with one kick, no way I'm letting that down. I'm not letting a worthless Hybrid make a mockery out of me." The quick tempered panther left the room with two of her cat soldiers by her side heading towards the prison cell of the black lion to do the job herself. "You know if you think about it for a second no kind of interrogation can get through him. Even by force it's useless as well. So I highly doubt Pandora's ways will work, either." Tonya said, smiled. "Don't you have research you should be doing on the lion's pod!" Zora snapped. The tigress didn't say anything else to her outrage sister as she left the room as well.

Nothing could have been said about what happened, however she refuses to fail again to her mother. But there was a sudden feeling about the lion when he grabbed her; no other words could describe what she felt, but she felt it before during the break in at the enslave camp. The armored figure was outnumbered by hunters and cat soldiers by the time he nearly release all the prisoners. Before they could eliminate him the unthinkable happened as each and every one of the robots were sliced in half by a figure without moving an inch from his spot; he could have killed her, but stopped at the last second in front of her face. It when an odd scent came to her, for the first time, a miasma scent filled the back of her nose blocking out her sense of smell. There was no explanation on what it smelt like, only it blocked her nose from smelling. Then there was the black lion himself, he had the same scent as the armored figure, but the difference was uncanny for his did not block her scent; more likely it did more than that, but only felt for a short time. The lioness shook her head and removed all thoughts of the male lion out of her mind, for which to her, men are not as strong than women and are only good for is worshipping women at their every whim. "Pull yourself together, Zora!" She thought. "I've been given orders from mother to get answers from the lion, and letting a male get the better of a female like me is not an opinion." She clawed the panel of the smashed computer screen in order to keep her from destroying it even more, until before she left deep claw marks she sense a sudden feeling someone was behind her. As she turned around realizing it was Tonya she continues to claw the panel, but answered to her without losing her tempter.

"What is it, Tonya? I thought you were heading back to researching on black lion's pad." The tigress didn't say a word as Zora heard her paw steps walking toward her. "Tonya, you know I don't like being ignored. Why are not reporting to me?" There was still no answer as the tigress stopped behind the lioness and gently placed a paw on her shoulder. Finally, the tigress spoken only except her voice completely different as she answered with a smooth and lovely voice, "I am not Tonya, Dear Lady Zora." The lioness acted fast as she quickly turned around to see what appeared to be her sister at first, was a white tigress in a pure white kimono. Her whole appearance was beautiful and the brightest golden eyes like no other female on Alden.

"Who are you? How did you get in here?

"I'd be happy to answer your questions," grinned the white tigress, "my name is Otake no Kami, and by how did I get in here; which one do you mean? The base or…your head?" The lioness gazed directing at the white tigress, where all around them the room starts to melt like wax erasing and disfiguring the walls and computers. Even the floor itself became disfigured as it starts to pull the lioness into its gray liquid unable to escape as it continues to drag her down like quicksand. But there was no endless ongoing in the floor as Zora began to float down under the floor like in water where everything was pitch black and nothing could be through it. Not even a flashlight can help. Soon she slowly landed on her feet, and with one touch the whole area filled the room up with light able to be seen from a light year away. Finally, the place starts to dim and everything became a normal lighting as it revealed itself to be the inside of a temple where carvings of odd marks were carved onto the edges of the walls. One of them caught her eyes as she sees the lion mark she seen on the black lion's pod as it remain together with seven other marks similar to it.


"The Mark of the Honorable Black Lion," said Otake, who appeared out of nowhere drinking a small cup of green leaf tea. "Legend says warriors who possess this mark will become honorable and obeying to their masters. It is also said, that this mark is base off of honor itself. What an interesting fact, don't you think, Zora De Facto."

Zora didn't seem impressed at all as she felt more than irritated, to say the least. "I don't fool so easily with your ability Hybrid, and it's not going work on me. Get it!" She snapped. The white tigress giggled as if Zora made a joke. "Have a seat, would you Miss De Facto." She said, as a Victorian chair appears out of nowhere and pulled up to Zora and moved her to the white tigress. Otake took another sip of her tea as she sat it down on a wooden pillar appearing out from wooden floor, then showed a cold and serious face to the lioness. "Believe me Zora. I'm not the kind who plays around. For you see---" The slide doors around them slammed opened as dozens of cherry blossom petals surround the tigress like a swarm of bees. The petals continued to grow as they started to form a shape around Otake, and one petal after another they each began to fall off revealing a long and large serpent like body with the whitest of scales like no other. When each petal has fallen there was no white tigress standing before Zora, but now a white Eastern dragon with bright white and golden scales able to be mistaken as a beautiful star at night and white horns with six gorgeous gem spheres of each kind, carnelian, lapis lazuli, onyx, aventurine, chiastolite, and moonstone. "---I am not the kind who plays around!" But Zora showed no fear to Okate, and smirked at her and taunted her. "You really think I'd be scared of your asinine imaginative form. You said it yourself we're in my head, so this ugly shape of yours isn't real." Feeling insulted, Otake roared in rage hearing it echo in the distances. But instead of feeling irate the white dragon showed a somewhat smirk on her face as her eyes glowed a fiery red until a large wall of fire surrounded Zora from escaping. But still, the lioness did not move still being cocky at the dragon, but after her tail started to smoke she realize sooner when a burning feeling occurred. With the heat already starting to fad the burnt lioness was covered in ash knowing what Otake said was true. Meaning she wasn't lying about her form. "Now do you believe me?" Otake grinned showing her sharp dragon teeth. Still not feeling slightly frighten Zora dusted off the ash off her fur and started to get comfortable in the chair she was sitting in with her right leg on her lap. The white dragon settled down and lay on her arms smirking.

"Seems like my fearful ways finally got to you, I see."

"Cut the kind act already," Zora said, being as patient as she can, showing a smile without showing her ugly side. "What is it that you want with me?"

Still holding her smirk Otake held her arm up and point her finger in a spinning motion as a line of puffy smoke appeared. It soon started form into a shape as it began from top to bottom. Very slowly, the smoke became thicker, and when the form finally took shape Zora's eyes widen when the form was actually the black lion himself. His whole body was covered in a black robe with the lion mark on the left part of his chest. "The black lion,” She asked. "What about him do you have in mind?" "I see, you found him, Shintaro Soto, the black samurai." She said. A sudden thought appeared in her hearing the word samurai echo in her mind. She pondered at the word and the name of Shintaro constantly, but her mind still remains in a shroud of fog. Without showing any reaction in hers thoughts, she stopped only to return back facing Otake. "Apparently so." She said, standing up walking toward the life-like figure of Shintaro. "So that's his name, Shintaro Soto?" "Yes, I can also tell from when you unlocked his capsule your sister, Pandora shot him with a gun. Sadly, this is no ordinary lion that can withstand any bullet." The dragon mentioned. Zora smiled returning back to her seat, knowing what exactly what she means towards the black Shintaro not having the slightest idea of the truth.

"Believe me, I realized what he was the moment he stood back up, I've seen similar Hybrids with abilities to block projectiles before." She said.
But the white dragon showed a sign of confusion, using her long tail forming a question mark above her head. "Hybrids?" She questioned. For a moment the white dragon continually tried to recall in her mind about Hybrids in her mind. "Oh I see. You mean, your kind; the ones created by man. I'm pretty surprise you all survived this long to built a society, however, the possibly of the humans winning is low as long as they are here." That one word questioned the lioness. Who were, "they," and does it have connection toward the black lion? Zora started to feel annoyed by Otake thinking she was playing mind games with her, until when looking up at the dragon she notice the scaly creatures having a blank but grave look on her face. Showing that sigh somehow gave Zora this unpleasing ease in her. She quickly came to before falling into the feeling and gathered herself. "Who are they?" She asks. Otake looked up at the sealing, her eyes glowed like the light itself and the gems on her horn became the color of them. The carvings on the wooden wall glowed along with her, and one after another the light shaded markings were pulled off from the walls forming on each parts of her dragon body. And right before she spoke, her voice sounded like more than one creature is talking alongside her. "For years, there was no such thing as light. Only the Darkness. When light was first introduced, the evil within the Darkness vowed to destroy it by possessing the living using monsters known as the Umbral or to us, the Anburaru, and sending them to a place where true suffering exist--Hell. We, the Children of Order, we're chosen to stop the darkness from corrupting each and everyone's purpose of life. This battle has gone on since the very first year of the universe, and when all kinds started to evolve, so, too, did the darkness as it grew stronger, consuming more lives in the fiery pit. It was then, we were given a mission to not only save the living from the darkness. We were going help them fight it. Each living spirit has their own special power within, and unlocked, awakens a sense no man would ever think is real, the seventh sense.
But to us, we call this sense, an Element. There are four Elements the rest of you know of, fire, water, earth, and air. But there are two more Elements we are known of, ice and stone. These two are what keep the four in sync with each other, and what makes them called Elements. Those wielding an Element are called Elementals, and with an Element can allow them to control one of them and see the Umbral with their own eyes. Over the years, the Elementals fought the Umbral and the Darkness removing their evil from the living of the worlds. However--" Otake pauses for a moment as one of the glowing marks and levitate before her, shining like a gem directed into the sunlight. Zora looked at it as well carefully staring at what mark it is. It came like a bolt of lightning to her, seeing it clearly as the Mark of the Honorable Black Lion. "--not everyone has an Element. Only secreted few are given one and the Elemental title. But that doesn't mean non-wielders aren't special." The mark started to come toward Zora almost like a feather falling on the ground. Zora had no reaction toward it getting closer to her until it finally got near her left paw. It slowly placed itself on the top of her paw until she started to feel a deeply agonizing pain from it as if on fire. Otake continue to speak, while the lioness tried her best to not scream, amazingly still hearing Otake while she bites down on her teeth. "The sixth sense was discovered to allow them to make pacts with Elementals. Those who control a Elemental are called Leader, or better yet, in this case, Shogun. And when controlling an Elemental awaits new things to come." The burning pain raged on Zora's paw like wild fire. She wanted it to stop, but after hearing what the dragon said she endured it. "Would wish to accept this mark?" Otake asked. "If what you're saying…is true. Then…I…ac…cept." Zora replied, while trying to speak straight as the pain increased on her paw.

"Do you really accept?" Otake asks again.

"Yes…!"

"Then say it, even shouted out if you want to."

The lioness' eyes became completely slit as she let out a roar able to be heard from miles.

"FINE, I ACCEPT! DO YOU HEAR ME, I ACCEPT!

End of part two.
